Chapter 103 Could Have Been
On the way back to Jianglitianxia, both of them were silent.
Ruan Xingyue drove silently, thinking about how to talk about adolescence with a hot-blooded teenager.
She noticed that the person in the back seat was peeking at her through his glasses.
Ruan Xingyue caught his gaze while waiting for the traffic light and coughed: "Tell me, are you looking for a girlfriend?"
It was normal for a twenty-year-old to be curious about that kind of thing, but he still had high school to finish.
She meant that if you really have too much energy, you can participate in sports activities.
Thinking of his hip injury, Ruan Xingyue withdrew the suggestion.
She wanted to say, why don’t you just masturbate, but she felt that this topic was too private, and she couldn’t say it to her biological sister, and it would sound ambiguous if she said it to her step-sister.
She suddenly thought of Xu Jiaojiao: "Fuchuan, I have a friend who makes small toys for adults. They also have toys for boys. I'll send you the official website and you can buy them online. It's better not to write such a marginal essay."
Lu Fuchuan suddenly leaned forward and said, "Don't discriminate against me because of my literary talent. I'm just creating something."
Ruan Xingyue couldn't suppress her eye roll. You are noble. You use me as material for your creation.
"Okay, then please, author, give me a male protagonist who is gentle, intelligent, obedient, handsome, older than me, and not nearsighted. I would be very grateful. After all, I don't like the one you have created now."
When Lu Fuchuan heard this, he sat back angrily, "Don't be so self-indulgent. I didn't write about you."
This little bastard!
Ruan Xingyue was so angry that she wanted to drive fast, do a cool drift, open the window, and throw the person in the back seat into the river.
Noticing Ruan Xingyue's anger, Lu Fuchuan hesitated for two seconds, then approached her again like a dog, and asked in a muffled voice, "Where are we going?"
Ruan Xingyue spun the steering wheel with one hand and raised her hand to brush the hair by her ear. "Take Mr. Lu to the Jiangli Tianxia Terrace for a field trip and some creative inspiration."
Lu Fuchuan, who wanted to go but didn't want to go: "..."
Thinking that it was just the two of them, he could no longer suppress the heat in his heart.
The ears turn red before the face.
"Are you hot?" Ruan Xingyue touched the air conditioning button. "I turned on the air conditioner."
Lu Fuchuan dared not move.
The phone rang. It was my assistant, Lan Lan. "Sister Yue, I've put everything on the terrace. The barbecue sauce is from the one you specified. The vegetables, fruits, and meat that need washing are in the kitchen."
Ruan Xingyue responded: "Okay, Lanlan, you can go home now. You've worked hard."
After hanging up the phone, Ruan Xingyue said seriously, "I'm treating Mianmian and the others to a barbecue today. They're all my good friends, so I'd like to introduce them to you."
Ruan Xingyue drove into the parking lot and said, "If you don't like playing with them, do your homework in the audio-visual room. I'll take you back to school after the party."
Lu Fuchuan leaned back in his chair and raised his school uniform sleeves to cover his eyes and forehead.
If you look closely, you can see that his jaw is tense and he is secretly grinding his teeth.
I don’t know who has offended the young master again.
On the other side, Ruan Xingmian finished his work, took out the new contract, and discussed the details with Xu Zeqing.
According to Xu Zeqing's plan, a million-dollar investment is far from enough.
At least tens of millions.
Xu Zeqing can contribute five million, and she will add another four million.
Since she had no one on her side and was pregnant, Ruan Xingmian initially just wanted to accumulate capital slowly.
If Xu Zeqing participated in the management of the company, she would be able to have a bigger appetite.
"Mianmian! I'm here to pick you up."
Ji Ling's lively voice sounded at the door.
Ruan Xingmian observed that Xu Zeqing's first gaze was towards the door. He wanted to stand up at first, but then sat back down.
Ji Ling came alone. When he saw Xu Zeqing, there was no extra expression on his face. He nodded as a greeting.
Not surprised, nor ignored.
Treat him like an acquaintance.
Just an acquaintance.
Seeing that they had work to discuss, Ji Ling took a bottle of water and waited on the sofa in the living room outside.
Ruan Xingyue called to urge him, and invited Xu Zeqing by the way: "It's a good time to come over and talk about the progress."
Xu Zeqing agreed without hesitation.
While Ruan Xingmian was packing up, he went ahead and went to the supermarket at the door to buy some fruits.
He walked towards Ji Ling, who was playing on her phone in the living room, and said familiarly as usual: "Lingling, give me the car keys. I'll drive in a while."
Ji Ling looked up from the screen: "Are you going too?"
"Yeah." Afraid she would be upset, Xu Zeqing hurriedly explained, "Xingyue said we should talk about the progress of evidence collection."
Ji Ling gave him the car keys without saying anything.
Xu Zeqing took two steps and turned back: "Lingling, when did I…"
Ji Ling had already walked towards Ruan Xingmian's office. Hearing this, he didn't even turn around and said, "Throw it all away. It's useless. Throw it all away."
Xu Zeqing stood there for a while before he composed himself and walked out.
In the office.
Ruan Xingmian looked at Sister Ji Ling, who looked sad, and couldn't help but said, "He hasn't talked to Liu Xiangqing, Sister Ji Ling, you still don't forgive him?"
Ji Ling looked over, her big eyes misty with tears, but she was extremely determined: "Mianmian, I don't dare to love anymore. Look at my mother, she loved Ji Zhengxing all her life, and now she is like this, neither human nor ghost. I am as cunning as my mother, but we are both honest. I can't play with these men. Anyway, the result is the same, it's better not to start."
Ruan Xingmian went to hold her hand: "You know, whatever you choose, I will support it."
Ji Ling smiled with such emotion that he almost wanted to cry.
"Mianmian, my life would be really ruined without you."
Ruan Xingmian squeezed her hand. Perhaps, this was the meaning of her coming back.
Even though her memory was vague, she knew that she was lonely in that world, like a rootless duckweed.
When she came to this world, every person she met whom she cherished enriched the first half of her lonely life.
They are the most important part of her life.
The other hand touched the belly and said, "Baby Ruan, you too."
In Jiangli Tianxia, Lu Fuchuan first greeted the open-minded Xu Jiaojiao. He was amused by the other party's words and kept looking up at his glasses, feeling uneasy.
He slipped away under the pretext of doing homework.
When he came out of the audio-visual room, the terrace was already full of people.
In the kitchen, a handsome man wearing an apron was responsible for cutting vegetables and arranging the dishes.
Ruan Xingyue, wearing the same apron, stood beside stirring the soup pot.
Afraid of getting too greasy from eating barbecue, Ruan Xingyue specifically asked her sister to prepare beef brisket and tomatoes.
As soon as Ruan Xingmian entered the room, he washed his hands and went into the kitchen to start stewing.
We started stewing at 8 o'clock, finished eating the barbecue at 11 o'clock, and each person had a bowl of soup to relieve the greasiness.
Lu Fuchuan staggered into the kitchen and leaned against the door frame.
Xu Zeqing, who was washing lettuce, noticed a pair of unhappy eyes behind him and turned around.
Their eyes met. Xu Zeqing, who was wearing a light-colored shirt and an apron, had a wolf-tail hairstyle and a temperament between exquisite and fresh.
The tip of the nose is slightly upturned and the corners of the mouth are delicate and soft.
Gentle temperament is innate.
Lu Fuchuan held onto the door frame and stared at Xu Zeqing: "Who are you?"
How could Xu Zeqing introduce himself?
Master Lu, I am the stubborn lawyer who chased you and scolded you back then.
What happened back then was too complicated, full of misunderstandings and doubts, and it’s too painful to look back on.
Xu Zeqing said simply: "I am Xingyue's friend, Xu Zeqing."
Lu Fuchuan chewed the three words "Xu Zeqing" over and over in his mouth, and his back teeth felt sore from biting them.
He had seen this face on the surveillance camera. This person had been to Jiangli Tianxia.
Ruan Xingyue looked up at him after being kicked in the shin: "What are you staring at? It's only courtesy. Can't you introduce yourself?"
Lu Fuchuan narrowed his peach blossom eyes and said in a neutral tone: "I am Lu Fuchuan."
Ruan Xingyue passed by with a plate of pork belly, and Young Master Lu Fuchuan was kicked in the calf again: "Go wash your hands, bring those plates of lettuce over, and learn from Lawyer Xu."
Still a lawyer.
The form Ruan Xingmian gave me doesn’t even have this person’s information in it!!!
Lu Fuchuan moved to the sink, bent down and rubbed his hands vigorously.
He suddenly turned his head and looked at Xu Zeqing and asked directly: "Do you have a girlfriend?"
Xu Zeqing was slightly stunned, not following the young master's train of thought.
He glanced outside the terrace, "Not yet."
He lowered his eyes and sighed softly, it could have been.
Lu Fuchuan suddenly came over and picked up two plates of lettuce: "I can introduce them to you."
Just then, Ji Ling came into the living room from the terrace to move a stool. Lu Fuchuan raised his chin and said, "You can pursue that girl. She doesn't have a boyfriend."
Xu Zeqing lowered his head and just wanted to sigh, he was chasing after him.
