Chapter 151 Feelings

Du Ruo looked at the things in Duobao Pavilion one by one, admiring them with admiration, but he just didn't want to exchange them.

Mr. Li was getting a little anxious. He couldn't help but ask, "My dear Du, what do you think of these things of mine? Is there anything you like?"

"How should I answer you when you ask me this? You must have good things. For example, the Ming Dynasty ewer with a poem and a precious flower pattern has a shape like this and is carved with this kind of craftsmanship. If I ask you to exchange it, will you do it?"

Mr. Li stared without saying a word.

That definitely won’t work.

The Ming Dynasty teapot with flower-patterned precious patterns and poems on its handle was carved from a single piece of jade without a single flaw. The chihu crawling on the handle was carved so vividly that every detail was visible, not to mention the flowers and poems on the body of the teapot. Even Du Ruo herself could not carve like this.

Old Li understood what Du Ruo meant. He would never exchange the things that Du Ruo liked, and she also looked down upon the things that he wanted to exchange with others. The old man was a little frustrated.

Du Ruo smiled and said, "Don't worry, old man. I will go to the jade market again in the second half of the year. I will get you a piece of five-color jade by then."

It's not easy for an old man to be unhappy.

When the two of them came out to drink tea, Li Lao tried to cheer himself up. He looked at Du Ruo and said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "You are so young and it's not your fault that you met the wrong person. Have you ever thought about finding someone else to spend the rest of your life with? What do you think of my Anze?"

Old Master Li had mentioned this to her in his previous life, but An Ze did not mention it, so Du Ruo naturally pretended to be joking. Unexpectedly, Old Master Li mentioned it again in this life.

Mr. Li said earnestly, "I know you get along well with the boy from the Yuan family, but the Yuan family is still too complicated. You are a smart child and may not like these trivial matters of mother-in-law and mother-in-law. Feelings are never a matter between two people. Sometimes, even the deepest feelings cannot withstand the test.

You are a child that I like very much. I always feel that we have some kind of destiny. If you can be with Anze, I will feel at ease even if I close my eyes one day."

Du Ruo was a little at a loss. She didn't expect her old man to mention this to her.

Seeing Du Ruo remained silent, Mr. Li sighed and said, "No one knows a son better than his father. I know what An Ze is thinking. His transfer was arranged by me. He is not suitable to continue to be entangled with his elder brother in H City. He and An Rui are not the same kind of people. I really hope that he can live a peaceful and orderly life."

Du Ruo smiled: "Don't worry, old man, he will."

After saying goodbye to Li's house, Du Ruo did not take a car. She strolled alone on the path. The autumn afternoon sunshine was warm, comfortable and pleasant, just like Anze.

Du Ruo walked aimlessly, recalling many past events. Every leisurely and comfortable time spent with An Ze appeared so clearly in front of her. There was no passionate emotion, only the warmth like a trickle, the plain and warm feeling that made her yearn for it.

But matters of the heart are hard to explain. Yuan Tingchuan is the variable in her life.

A car slowly stopped by the side of the road, the bodyguard opened the door, Yuan Tingchuan, with Du Ruo's coat on his arm, walked slowly in front of her, put the coat on her shoulders, with a reproachful tone in his voice.

"Why are your hands so cold? Why don't you put on more clothes?"

Du Ruo looked at this handsome face with confusion in her eyes. She knew in her heart that this man was not a good match. At least An Ze was more reassuring than him.

Yuan Tingchuan looked at the confusion in Du Ruo's eyes and seemed to understand something. He reached out and held Du Ruo in his arms without saying a word.

He doesn't want to make any promises lightly, but because of his love, he would rather let time prove everything.

Du Ruo hugged the man's waist tightly, leaned lightly on his chest, and her nose was filled with the aroma of tobacco.

Perhaps, time can really prove everything, there is no need to be impatient.

Ms. Bai Minhua finally decided to go back to Hong Kong. Before leaving, Ji Bailin said to Du Ruo, "You didn't make it to my engagement ceremony. I'm getting married in three months. If you don't come, I'll be very angry with you."

Du Ruo waved his hands listlessly and said, "I can't guarantee that. Who can guarantee something that's so far away?"

Ji Bailin was choked by her and wondered what happened to his sister.

Ling Yun said coldly: "It's stupid."

Du Ruo glared at him fiercely, then asked, "Why are you so idle? Why don't you leave?"

"I'm leaving this afternoon. Do you still want to give me some food?"

"I'll kick you and tell you to get out of here."

After seeing Ling Yun and her adopted brother off, Du Ruo thought it was time for her to go home. The matter in H City had come to an end. She had stayed here just to wait for Ling Yun, but then the incident with Chen Guochang happened. Both Shang Yi and Chen Yuan had urged her several times.

She had been waiting for his mother and Ji Yuan to return to Hongcheng. Now that everyone had left, Du Ruo was also packing her luggage.

"Come back to Hong Kong City with me? I'm quite busy recently. Please stay with me for a while. When I'm done with this busy period, I'll go to Linshan to accompany you."

Yuan Tingchuan sniffed Du Ruo's hair and whispered in her ear.

Du Ruo pushed him away and stretched out her hand, saying, "Where's the gift you owe me?"

"It has been shipped back to you. You will see it when you return."

Du Ruo walked to the window, looked out at the night and said, "We'll talk about our affairs later. How's Qu Xin?"

"She was sentenced to three years. I don't think she'll stay long. I heard that Madam Qu is here."

"What about Han Ming?"

"I returned to H City and started my own business. I am now the general manager of Changfeng Construction."

Du Ruo was surprised: "Didn't Mr. Smith settle the score with him?"

"What does it have to do with him? He works for the Qu Group. Even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. He can't be touched."

"Then where did he get so much money to start his own business?"

"It must have been obtained from selling something, but neither Smith nor Qu's father knew about it."

Du Ruo was confused.

"Is there a wall that's impenetrable? If they open their mouths, we'll know what's going on, right?"

"Mr. Smith has a lot of counterfeits and is very angry. Do you think he is in the mood to have a calm chat with Mr. Qu?"

In other words, the one who really got the advantage was Han Ming? That bastard got a really good deal.

Du Ruo touched his chin and said maliciously: "Do you think I should do a good deed and tell those two?"

"It's too late. Mr. Qu went back home this morning and will not come to H City in the short term. Mr. Smith has nowhere to vent his anger, so he has also gone back."

Du Ruo sighed with regret, which means that she realized it too late and didn't have time to trick Han Ming?

She looked at Yuan Tingchuan complainingly: "Why didn't you remind me?"
