Chapter 396 You are not qualified to make me hate you
Yun Ci threw the tissue aside, tapped the teacup with his fingers, and said in a calm voice: "We are related by blood, you shouldn't have forgotten, right?"

Ruan Xichen slowly lowered his head: "We don't have it."

Yun Ci was slightly stunned: "What?"

Ruan Xichen took a deep breath, raised his head again, looked at Yun Ci and said, "We are not related by blood. I was bought into the Ruan family when I was born. I only found out about this a few days ago."

He forced out a bitter smile: "Do you think I'm joking? I like it to be a joke, but unfortunately... it's the truth."

Yun Ci frowned and looked at him quietly for a while. Soon, her brows relaxed again. She said nothing and asked nothing. She had no hobby of exposing other people's scars.

An inexplicable silence fell between the two of them until the boss brought over two bowls of noodles. Yun Ci took a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Ruan Xichen first, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Ruan Xichen took it blankly, with a look of gratitude in his eyes.

Yun Ci’s reaction surprised him. If it were someone else, after hearing such a secret, they would definitely have an exaggerated reaction, shocked and curious, asking questions non-stop, wanting to know more clearly. After knowing the information, they would think about who to share it with and give him false comfort on the surface.

The two of them finished their noodles in silence. Yun Ci wiped his mouth, looked at Ruan Xichen, and spoke again, saying concisely, "But I don't like you."

What a direct and ruthless answer, without any emotion or disguise.

Ruan Xichen laughed and accepted it calmly: "I know that when you first came to the Ruan family, I treated you very badly. It was my fault and I have always regretted it. Even if you hate me, I am not surprised. In the future, I will try my best to treat you well and change your mind about me."

Yun Ci said calmly: "I don't hate you."

"Really?" Ruan Xichen's eyes flashed with expectation.

You are not qualified enough to make me hate you.

Yun Ci didn't say this. When they left the noodle shop, it was already dark. Ruan Xichen suggested taking Yun Ci to school, but Yun Ci simply refused and took the lead to walk forward, his figure quickly disappearing into the night.

At noon, Jun Duonuan asked Yunci to go to the cafeteria for lunch. She ordered three large chicken legs, which frightened the cafeteria auntie so much that her hands shook even more. She kept persuading her, "Child, eat less. It's shameful to waste food!"

Jun Duonuan grinned: "There is no word 'waste' in my life's dictionary!"

Yun Ci was holding a lunch box when the phone in her pocket rang. She took it out, took a look, and hung up with an expressionless face.

Ever since he confessed his love in the noodle shop, Ruan Xichen had become more and more attentive to her. He would call or text her every day and ask her out for dinner. Even though he was always rejected, he was not annoyed at all and continued to persist, with an attitude of completely boiling a frog in warm water.

Yun Ci thought about it and blocked Ruan Xichen’s number.

In the evening, when I returned to the dormitory, my cell phone rang again. It was Ye Nianrui calling.

After the call was connected, the old man's voice with a smile came from the other end: "Girl, how are you doing in school?"

Yun Ci placed the book on the table and replied calmly, "Not bad."

Ye Nianrui said with a sense of loss: "Girl... I know you are busy, so come back and play chess with me when you are free."

"it is good."

He suddenly coughed twice, his voice lacking the usual firmness: "Alas... My health is getting worse and worse. I don't think I will have many days left. I don't know how many more games I can play with you."
