Chapter 157 I Need You to Protect My Sister
On the way back, Ruan Xingmian thought about it and took out the velvet box from his pocket.
The driver of Lu Group rented a car in the early morning to take Ruan Xingyue back.
I left the car to them.
Li Xue drove back in the afternoon.
Ruan Ze sat in the back seat with his little daughter.
The youngest daughter took out two boxes, one black and one red, and showed two completely different rings, one gold and one silver.
"Dad, which one should I wear?"
Gu Xing has the silver one in his hand.
Ruan Ze exhaled heavily, his eyebrows furrowed in anger. "He clearly promised me to wait until you were thirty before marrying me, yet he actually proposed to you in front of Ruan Tao without telling me!"
The brat is very brave. He is not afraid that Ruan Tao will give him a set of military boxing and beat him black and blue in his dream.
Li Xue couldn't help but speak up for Gu Xing: "I didn't agree to that. I just said I'd listen to Mianmian."
"Then he really has bad intentions. On the one hand, he says he will listen to Mianmian, but on the other hand, he forces Mianmian to agree."
Ruan Xingmian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "He didn't force me, Dad."
Ruan Ze was heartbroken: "Look, you spoke for him!"
"Alright." Li Xue's face turned serious. "Teacher Qu's family treats Mianmian like their own child. You also recognize Xiao Gu's character. Don't be childish."
Ruan Ze curled his lips in grievance.
The little daughter poked him with her finger, but he pretended not to see.
Li Xue sighed: "Mom is right. When I go home for the New Year, Mianmian's belly will be big, and the neighbors won't be able to hide it. Our Mianmian is only 20 years old. She will be a big entrepreneur in the future. I don't want to hear anyone slander her."
Ruan Ze gritted his teeth and said, "Whoever dares to say that, I will tear her mouth apart and then sew her up again."
Li Xue shook her head. "Can you go door to door and rip the mouths of everyone in the village?"
She thought of what Ye Lan had experienced.
She loves beauty. Even when she is pregnant with Mianmian, she still likes to wear beautiful suspender skirts and walk around the community. Some gossipers see that she is not with her husband and secretly make up a story that she is a mistress.
Li Xue made a decision: "My mother and I have discussed it. We will invite Teacher Qu and his family to our house during the Spring Festival. We will hold a few tables of engagement banquet for relatives and friends to ensure that we have two children. Our Ruan baby is not a illegitimate child."
Ruan Ze snorted but didn't say anything against it.
Seeing that his little daughter was still waiting for him to help choose, he casually picked up a gold plain ring, which did not match Gu Xing's, and said, "Wear this."
Ruan Xingmian put it on beautifully, thought about it, took a photo and posted it on WeChat Moments.
Just send a red heart.
…
No. 1 Middle School boys' dormitory.
Lu Fuchuan had just finished writing a test paper. He drank some water, played with his phone for a while, and then sorted out the wrong questions.
When I saw this post on WeChat Moments, I quickly liked it and sent a private message to Ruan Xingmian: Why aren’t you coming back yet?
Ruan Xingmian: My sister came back this morning and we just got on the highway.
Lu Fuchuan: Oh.
Ruan Xingmian: Just ask whatever you want to ask directly. Being hesitant is not your style.
Lu Fuchuan's fingers flew around: Is her cold getting better?
Ruan Xingmian: It took a week to get better. I don’t know who infected my sister. She’s really bad.
Lu Fuchuan held his phone guiltily, not knowing how to answer.
He put down his phone, flipped the screen downward, and slapped himself.
If that’s not enough, give me another slap.
Make you impulsive!
Makes you emotional!
He knocked his glasses under the table.
He stared at the glasses at his feet. The previous pair was left at Ruan Xingyue's house.
Lu Fuchuan raised his foot to step on the innocent glasses, but he didn't do it in the end.
He slapped himself again, "Control your temper, Lu Fuchuan."
He warned himself, flipping through the test paper with a confused mind.
After anger comes regret, and after regret comes sadness.
Who are you trying so hard for?
No one cares about you anymore.
He was absent-mindedly twitching at the hairband on his wrist.
I wondered—how is she now? What is she busy with? Is she happier than when she was with me?
There was a knock on the door, but Lu Fuchuan didn't want to get up.
Pretend no one is there.
He didn't want to see anyone right now.
Don't want to talk.
Lying on the table, my nose suddenly felt sore.
Who can teach him how to like someone?
The phone vibrated, Lu Fuchuan suddenly raised his head and flipped the screen.
It’s Ruan Xingyue!
He stood up holding his phone, and his first reaction was to see if he had made any mistakes in school recently.
No sleeping in.
No novels were written.
All homework completed.
Before hanging up, he answered the phone nervously.
"Hello."
His tone was stiff and polite, trying to hide his nervousness.
There was a knock on the door and her voice rang out at the same time: "Lu Fuchuan, open the door."
The door opened from the inside.
A week later, the two finally saw each other's faces.
My first reaction was that I seemed to have lost weight.
Ruan Xingyue walked into the dormitory carrying her bag and stood tiredly in front of his chair. "Can I sit here?"
Lu Fuchuan's heart was pierced by her polite question like a long needle.
"Whatever." He replied stiffly.
She didn't have a nice hairstyle or even makeup.
With long hair, he looked haggard.
It's a bit difficult to speak.
Ruan Xingyue didn't know what was wrong. Before coming in, she was still holding her breath and was in high spirits. She was so excited that she could hold a meeting when she returned to the company.
As soon as she saw Lu Fuchuan, her tone completely disappeared, and she became her truest self, not even bothering to raise the corners of her mouth.
"What's up?" She was silent. Lu Fuchuan made small talk. "I've made an appointment with some classmates to go to the library study room."
He wasn't urging her to leave, he just wanted her to say something.
The mouth speaks faster than the brain and cannot be stopped.
After saying that, he regretted it and raised his hand to slap himself.
Ruan Xingyue said lightly, "Oh," and cheered up: "Lu Tian was kidnapped. Kangji Hospital is under investigation. It is related to the Liang family. According to your aunt's speculation, Lu Tian left the sterile room and I'm afraid he won't last for a few days."
Lu Fuchuan frowned. He was not interested in Lu Tian's affairs and said sarcastically, "He is a vegetable, how much can he be worth?"
"The kidnappers want 800 million."
Lu Fuchuan said nonchalantly, "A mere 800 million, can't Lu Yiman come up with it?"
Ruan Xingyue's eyebrows were dim. The problem was that Lu Yiman decided to give up preparing the ransom. When the second call came in, she asked the kidnappers to kill the hostage in front of the police.
"You want me to pay these 800 million..." Lu Fuchuan frowned and asked softly. He didn't dare to look at Ruan Xingyue's face, for fear that she would really nod.
The morally corrupt Lu Tian is more important than him, Lu Fuchuan...
In her eyes, Lu Fuchuan is nothing...
He raised his head, his Adam's apple rolled violently, hiding the anger in his heart.
"I can promise you..."
"That's not what I meant..."
They both spoke at the same time and looked at each other at the same time.
Ruan Xingyue spoke first: "I'm just suddenly sentimental. Lu Tian grew up with us, and amidst his parents' emotional tug-of-war, his life, which should have been ordinary, has been shattered. He's about to completely disappear from this world."
Is this Lu Tian’s fate?
Like being fiddled with by a big hand.
What about their lives? Can they really resist the control of fate?
"I don't believe in fate." Lu Fuchuan's tone left no room for doubt. "I only believe that evil will be punished. Lu Tian's current situation is his retribution."
He packed his schoolbag irritably, unable to bear the sight of Ruan Xingyue mourning Lu Tian's death. "If you need money to save him, you can contact Lin Youpeng directly. Don't waste time and come to me. I told you that you can do whatever you want with the money; it's all ill-gotten gains anyway."
He banged his schoolbag loudly.
Ruan Xingyue pressed his arm: "Can you please listen to what I say carefully before you get angry again?"
Lu Fuchuan calmed down.
Ruan Xingyue withdrew her hand and said, "Gu Xing has something to ask of you. His request is the same as mine."
Lu Fuchuan let out a breath of foul air for no apparent reason.
"you say."
Ruan Xingyue looked him in the eye and said, "I need you to protect my sister, at all costs."
His furrowed brows relaxed a little.
Ruan Xingyue continued, "In return, after you graduate from high school, I will pave the way for you to return to the Lu Group and return the property to its original owner."
Her peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, disgusted by the promise of "the bridge is the bridge and the road is the road".
Lu Fuchuan continued to pack his schoolbag: "Tell Gu Xing for me that I promised him."
He picked up his schoolbag and walked out, "Nothing, I'll go first."
I walked to the door and stopped, but still didn't hear any voice trying to keep me.
"Lu Fuchuan! Let's go! Study room!" A boy's voice sounded outside the balcony.
"Let him go first. He died recently."
"I asked him to discuss the wrong questions."
The sounds of men and women laughing could be heard from behind.
The person behind him didn't say a word.
Lu Fuchuan hesitated for two seconds, opened the door and rushed out in rage.
