Inside the Phoenix Restaurant, many celebrities had been curiously watching Miss Ruan, who was dressed in a formal gown and stood at the entrance for over an hour.
"Who is that? Looks like the person Miss Ruan is trying to curry favor with tonight."
"That lame guy must be the eldest young master of the Xu family. Didn't you know how big the Xu family incident was before?"
"That girl is Ruan Chen!"
"Really? Wasn't it said that the Ruan family wanted to give Ruan Chen to the Xu family before, but Ruan Chen slapped them in the face on the spot? How come the two of them are still hooking up now?"
"Don't talk nonsense, they should just be ordinary friends. To be honest, with Ruan Chen's face, if she wanted, all the young masters in Jingzhou would line up for her to choose from. She wouldn't be interested in a cripple."
"Do you know that kid over there? He doesn't look very old. Whose child is he?"
"I don't know them. Maybe they're distant relatives of the Ruan or Xu families."
“No, look at Ruan Yunhan’s expression. It’s like she’s talking to that boy. Her status doesn’t warrant such politeness to a distant relative of the Ruan or Xu families.”
Fu Jianzhi coldly glanced at Ruan Yunhan, but with Ruan Chen in front of him, he didn't want to go too far.
Otherwise, given his temperament, he would have made Ruan Yunhan kneel down and kowtow ten times.
The boy's eyes were as deep as a cold pool. He lightly pressed his fingertips on his cufflinks and said, "Please make way."
Just as Ruan Yunhan was about to get up, Su Jin's instruction came through the earphone in her right ear: "Don't be impatient, baby. The young master hasn't said he forgives you yet."
"Young Master Fu, can you forgive me?"
Fu Jianzhi remained silent and tried to pull Ruan Chen away.
"Ruan Chen!" Ruan Yunhan grabbed her, pleading in a low voice, "Sister, please tell the young master of the Fu family to forgive me, okay?"
Ruan Chen had no idea what Ruan Yunhan was up to this time. There were so many people in Fengming Restaurant; didn't she feel ashamed?
"Brother Xu, you should go first. I'm sorry to have made you laugh at the Ruan family."
Xu Qingjing nodded understandingly, "Let's get together again when we have time."
Ruan Chen watched Xu Qingjing leave, and then she caught a glimpse of the person by the window out of the corner of her eye.
Su Jin.
Su Jin stood at a distance that was neither too close nor too far, his gaze meeting Ruan Chen's without flinching. Instead, he smiled amicably.
Ruan Chen then noticed a Bluetooth earphone next to Ruan Yunhan's ear.
"Ruan Chen, please, this is very simple for you. Please ask Young Master Fu to forgive me, okay?" Ruan Yunhan suppressed her emotions, trying not to let them explode. "You've already ruined my brother, ruined my mother, do you want to ruin me too?!"
Ruan Chen: WTF?
She said coldly, "Isn't that all your own fault? What does it have to do with me?"
Ruan Yunhan was on the verge of collapse, and she hissed in a low voice, "Ruan Chen, are you really going to just stand by and watch me die?"
Ruan Chen chuckled, leaned down and whispered something in Fu Jianzhi's ear, then ignored Ruan Yunhan and walked alone towards Su Jin by the window.
"Hello, little sister." Su Jin greeted her warmly.
Ruan Chen was very close to him, looking up at him with a sweet and adorable smile, "Hello, brother."
She noticed that Su Jin also had an earphone in his ear.
Then she stopped talking and quietly leaned against Su Jin, her posture somewhat languid, the two of them like two bystanders.
Su Jin couldn't help but secretly admire Ruan Chen's face—a delicate and flawless profile, thick and fine eyelashes, and long hair pinned up with a simple wooden hairpin, which made her neck appear fair and slender.
It's hard to imagine how amazing she will be when she grows up.
On Fu Jianzhi's side, Ruan Yunhan was still pleading with him. Su Jin listened to his girlfriend's humble pleas through his earphones, a smile of excitement and satisfaction appearing on his lips.
Ruan Chen's phone vibrated slightly in her pocket. She took it out and glanced at the screen.
"Copy complete"
As Ruan Chen walked towards Fu Jianzhi, she opened her phone and checked what she had just copied from Su Jin's phone.
At first, she thought Su Jin was just a pitiful victim, but now it seems that Ruan Yunhan is the prey.
"Do you really need me to say 'I forgive you' in person?" Fu Jianzhi suddenly asked after Ruan Chen finished dealing with her matter.
A glimmer of hope shone in Ruan Yunhan's eyes.
"Then give up on that idea."
Fu Jianzhi walked towards Ruan Chen, took her hand, and left.
Ruan Yunhan was utterly desperate. Trembling, she turned around to look for Su Jin, but the devilish man who had been by the window just moments before had vanished.
Ruan Yunhan didn't know how she got down the elevator. A cold wind blew against her, and a suit jacket was draped over her shoulders.
The moment she saw the man's face, Ruan Yunhan screamed and tried to back away.
Su Jin forcefully pulled her around the waist, half-coercing her as he led her toward the luxury car not far away. His tone was as gentle as a pool of spring water, "Yunhan, if you can't even handle this small matter, how will you ever have a place in the Ruan Group? Your disgraceful behavior tonight was seen by many high-society people in Jingzhou. Do you think they will think of you from now on?"
He questioned her relentlessly, "Yunhan, look, you can't even find a boyfriend besides me. What are you trembling about? Are you afraid of me?"
Ruan Yunhan finally burst into tears, "Ajin, please don't release those photos! I'll do anything you want!"
"Oh?" Su Jin enjoyed watching her completely collapse—he was enjoying the thrill of conquest, watching the pure and noble flower be destroyed and succumb little by little.
"Then kneel down and beg me? Maybe I'll forget about tonight."
Ruan Yunhan was stunned. "Ajin?"
"Hurry up," Su Jin said gently in a low voice with a smile in the dimly lit parking lot, "Yunhan, are you going to misbehave again? Don't make me slap you."
He took out his phone, and those shameful photos that he had secretly taken without his knowledge were played in front of Ruan Yunhan.
Ruan Yunhan covered her face in despair.
In the end, she knelt down before Su Jin, trembling.
“Come on, don’t cover your face, look up and smile,” Su Jin turned the camera on again, changing the angle back and forth, “Pull your collar down a little, yes, baby, you’re great…”
Ruan Yunhan realized that she had fallen into Su Jin's abyss.
The pointer pointed to a position close to the number two. Fu Jianzhi yawned, closed his laptop, and looked back at Ruan Chen. "Sister, was Ruan Yunhan threatened by that man?"
"Yes." Ruan Chen had already seen what she had copied from Su Jin's phone today.
Su Jin's phone was encrypted, and many copied documents contained garbled text.
However, some of the recently taken photos were not encrypted—it's unclear whether it was because there wasn't enough time, or because Su Jin simply didn't care about these photos.
What is it?
Not suitable for children.
Fu Jianzhi quickly made a face at Ruan Chen, "Sis, do you want to help her?"
Ruan Chen yawned lazily, got up to pack her things and prepare for bed. "Jianzhi, let me teach you a lesson—put aside your desire to help others and laugh at their fates—if my photo had fallen into Ruan Yunhan's hands, it would probably be all over Jingzhou by now."
