You tricked me into raising your son? You'll divorce me and become my aunt.

After Ruan Ning's divorce was revealed, Jin Xiuhan began to get closer to her step by step.

The cooperation between the two sides continues.

Jin Xiuhan gradually gained a deeper understanding of Ruan Ning through this collaborative project.

The more he learned about her, the more he liked her.

They gradually succumbed, step by step.

……

one year later.

The project was successfully completed.

After the celebration banquet, Jin Xiuhan offered to take Ruan Ning home.

The two were neighbors. Ruan Ning had been drinking that night and it was inconvenient for her to drive, so she did not refuse Jin Xiuhan's suggestion and rode in his car home.

The atmosphere inside the car was ambiguous.

Ruan Ning drank some wine that night. Although she wasn't drunk, her cheeks were flushed, and she was slightly tipsy.

The two sat in the back row, quite close together.

The interior of the car was dimly lit.

Jin Xiuhan had always been a cold and aloof man, uninterested in women.

I haven't had a female companion for so many years.

After a year of getting to know each other, Ruan Ning had actually noticed his feelings for her.

But she couldn't believe it.

He was, after all, her ex-husband's brother-in-law.

In terms of seniority, he was once her elder.

The two met frequently over the course of the year due to their collaborative project.

Jin Xiuhan also frequently initiated conversations with Ruan Ning on WeChat.

He would even send her gifts and flowers on special holidays and her birthday.

Although Jin Xiuhan hasn't officially confessed his feelings yet, Ruan Ning has already sensed his affections.

She agreed to ride home with him today, not only because she had been drinking and couldn't drive, but also for another reason.

She wanted to explain things to him.

In the past, due to cooperation, they inevitably had to come into contact.

Now that the collaboration is over, they should keep their distance.

Ruan Ning was pondering how to bring it up.

Suddenly, I felt an unfamiliar touch on my hand.

Her heart skipped a beat, and her eyes stared blankly ahead, not daring to look down.

Jin Xiuhan gently took her hand in his.

The man's long, warm fingers intertwined with hers, their fingers locked together.

Ruan Ning struggled, but couldn't break free.

Jin Xiuhan held her hand tightly.

"Ruan Ning, I don't believe you haven't realized my feelings for you."

Ruan Ning's heart was beating faster and faster.

Jin Xiuhan leaned closer to her, lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "I wanted to pursue you as soon as your divorce was announced, but I restrained myself for a year because I was afraid of affecting your research project. Now I don't want to restrain myself anymore."

"Marry me."

Startled by those three words, Ruan Ning instinctively turned to look at him.

The man's gaze was intense, fixed intently on her.

"Who gets married before even dating?" she found it unbelievable.

"It's the same whether we talk about it after marriage."

Ruan Ning's lips twitched.

Marriage of convenience that blossoms into love?

"But I don't want to get married right now."

"Then let's start dating."

Ruan Ning: "..."

"Sorry, I have no plans to be in a relationship right now."

"Then I'll pursue you." Jin Xiuhan tightened his grip on Ruan Ning's hand.

Feeling the man's burning heat, Ruan Ning's breathing became somewhat labored.

The man was very strong, and she couldn't break free. They remained hand in hand all the way home.

Underground Parking Lot.

Ruan Ning reminded them, "We've arrived."

It's time to let go.

The man seemed not to understand, and grunted an "Mmm," showing no intention of letting go.

Ruan Ning: "..."

She took a deep breath, turned to look at Jin Xiuhan, and said, "Let go."

"Oh." Only then did the man reluctantly let go.

How come Ruan Ning never noticed before that this man had such a clingy side?

That night, Ruan Ning couldn't sleep.

My ex-husband's younger brother confessed his feelings to me.

It's impossible for her to remain indifferent when something like this happens to her.

For the past year, Fu Tingchen has been trying to reconcile.

At first, she was extremely annoyed, but for some reason, Fu Tingchen suddenly stopped bothering her.

When I heard from him again, he had already gone abroad.

Looking back now, perhaps Jin Xiuhan was also behind Fu Tingchen's trip abroad.

Over the past year, the research projects led by the teachers that Ruan Ning participated in have progressed smoothly.

After the project ended, her net worth skyrocketed, easily earning her hundreds of millions.

After confessing his feelings that night, Jin Xiuhan began to openly pursue Ruan Ning.

No one expected that Jin Xiuhan, such an aloof and unattainable man, would pursue a divorced woman so passionately and openly.

Faced with Jin Xiuhan's fierce offensive, Ruan Ning was forced to retreat steadily.

"Jin Xiuhan, you're crazy! You're Fu Tingchen's brother-in-law! There's no future for us!"

The man kissed her lips fiercely, "Ruan Ning, you can only be mine."

Ruan Ning was furious and slapped him.

The man smiled, his voice deep and husky as he whispered in the woman's ear, "Slap me and kiss me."

......

Later, Jin Xiuhan finally won the heart of his beloved.

Fu Tingchen and Ruan Ning reunited at Jin Xiuhan and Ruan Ning's wedding of the century.

That night, Fu Tingchen got completely drunk, his eyes red as he begged Ruan Ning, "Ruan Ning, I beg you, please remarry me?"

Jin Xiuhan kicked the man away with a cold face. "No manners, call her aunt."
