Facing the confused expressions of the Su family's mother and daughter, An Ruoyun simply turned his head away: "I feel like Brother Younian would be happy if that were the case, right?"
"Since you think Xiaonian will open the door, then I'll give him a call?" Chen Yi reached out to take out her cell phone from her pocket, but she didn't dial until An Ruoyun took the initiative to extend his hand.
"No... no need!" As An Ruoyun spoke in panic, the smile on Chen Yi's face became more and more obvious: "Really?"
"It's really not necessary!"
"So that's it?"
"What...just let it go like this?"
"A little girl thinks that she has no chance because she hurt the boy, and is ready to give up on herself." Chen Yi looked at An Ruoyun with sharp eyes. Normally, the latter would have a certain resistance to this kind of look, but at this moment, she was completely unable to resist Chen Yi's eyes.
Subconsciously retreat, then subconsciously move forward.
She didn't want to show her weak side in front of other people, not even Chen Yi and the others who were theoretically fine!
"I..." An Ruoyun opened her mouth, hoping that she could say something meaningful, but at the last moment, she remained silent.
Not for any other reason, just because I am not qualified.
"Ruoyun, come with me. Auntie...I have something to tell you." Chen Yi glanced at her daughter, then her eyes fell on An Ruoyun.
The two of them walked towards a separate pavilion, one in front and the other behind, while Su Qiuyuan stood there awkwardly.
The look in her mother's eyes clearly told her not to meddle in other people's business.
………………
The Su family's garden design is beautiful and has no repetition. Although it is also a resting spot in the manor's green belt, compared to the previous resting spot that mainly features wood carvings, this one has flowing water.
A small stream cleverly passes through the center of the pavilion, dividing it into two halves. The winding stream perfectly completes the Tai Chi Yin-Yang shape. Combined with ventilation and lighting... it can even regulate the temperature.
But these were things that An Ruoyun didn't need to care about at the moment. What she really wanted to care about was...
What exactly does Chen Yi want to say to me?
"You know my situation, right? My husband did something so ridiculous and shameless, but in the end, I didn't receive the compensation I deserved. Instead, I was protected by him." Chen Yi spread her fingers and seemed to be examining her palm. "Like you, I also wanted to repay him, but he didn't agree."
An Ruoyun understood what the person in front of him wanted to say, but he also knew that he could not accept this kind of explanation.
The reason is...
"From someone else's perspective, you can understand whatever you want, but if you stand in your own perspective, you won't understand at all." Chen Yi reached out and gently held An Ruoyun's hand: "Ruoyun, in my opinion, you are really suitable for Xiaonian."
"Me? Suitable for Brother Younian..." Forced to smile, An Ruoyun could feel the warmth coming from his palm.
But this problem can only be transmitted on the skin.
Beneath the skin, there is nothing more.
very scary……
And, so desperate.
I have no idea how to win Brother Younian's heart.
"It may not be nice for me to say this, but if a girl wants to win a boy's heart, having a child is the best way." Chen Yi looked at An Ruoyun's belly: "I don't know what you are thinking, but... at least Younian needs to agree with this."
"I...that!" There was confusion in his eyes. It was completely unpredictable for An Ruoyun to suddenly receive such a promise from Chen Yi.
Among the members of Brother Younian's family, whom I originally thought were the most difficult to deal with, 25% of them have now become my comrades-in-arms!
Moreover, he is the one with the highest seniority and the most authority to speak!
Take a deep breath, and then take another deep breath. An Ruoyun uses this method to keep himself in the calmest state.
Chapter 18 The ultimate assist from mother-in-law.
"But I do have a condition." As An Ruoyun waited in silence, Chen Yi softly asked, "Can you agree to this?"
"What conditions?" To be honest, the bargaining process with the person in front of her was the last step in An Ruoyun's mind, so she felt quite confused at the moment as if she was facing the final BOSS before improving her skills.
And what Chen Yi said now made An Ruoyun feel even more apprehensive. He had already eaten the carrot, so the next step was to eat the stick, right?
I hope this stick isn’t too heavy!
"I have only one requirement for your relationship with Xiaonian, and that is safety. I need you to ensure Xiaonian's absolute safety, so I want to know about any communication you have the next day. Once I discover something I don't know, you have violated the agreement between you and me. I will use my identity as Mrs. Su to clean up the entire An family, including you, even if he will be angry and blame me later." After finishing the long speech, Chen Yi was slightly out of breath.
Sitting in his seat, he began to look at An Ruoyun silently.
I have already stated my conditions, and now it depends on An Ruoyun's performance.
"Mom." Without saying anything else, An Ruoyun just lowered his head and called out softly.
Nodding, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Chen Yi reached out and rubbed An Ruoyun's head: "We will be a family from now on."
"Yeah!" An Ruoyun gritted his teeth and tried not to let the tears flow down his cheeks, but eventually some crystal clear drops of water mixed into the flowing stream on the ground, startling a few resting fish fry.
"Okay, a girl's tears are very valuable. At least they should be shown to others who can see them." Chen Yi reached out to wipe away An Ruoyun's tears, but she paused and took out her phone from her pocket to take a photo of the girl in front of her.
While having dinner with Gu Qing, Su Younian noticed that his cell phone was ringing.
He took it out casually and glanced at it, but his expression began to look strange.
How could it be news about Aunt Chen Yi?
Although he and Chen Yi were friends, Su Younian had never sent a word to her.
Now the pictures are sent along with the language.
"Hey, Xiaonian, your fiancée is crying now."
On Chen Yi's side, An Ruoyun, who had already wiped the tears from his face, was sitting obediently beside her, waiting for Su Younian's reply.
"Hmm..." The message showing that the other party was typing appeared for a long time, but there was no message, and finally just the word "hmm" appeared.
"Come home for dinner tonight. Ruoyun misses you so much." Chen Yi didn't mind Su Younian's cold reaction to her at all. She just followed up with a sentence: "Or you can go out and eat by yourselves?"
"Mom..." An Ruoyun instantly understood Chen Yi's actions. She first threw out a choice that sounded very difficult, and then a choice that left room for maneuver.
Someone with a personality like Brother Younian...
"Okay, then I'll make an appointment with Ruoyun then." Sure enough, Su Younian's answer came quickly in the chat box.
"Well, okay! I'll contact Ruoyun for you and book dinner for today." As Chen Yi said this, An Ruoyun's face showed irrepressible excitement.
Is it that easy to ask Brother Younian out?
"Don't wear clothes like this when you go out to eat. Be casual. You know Younian's personality. He'll be unhappy if you dress like this." Chen Yi helped An Ruoyun adjust his collar, and her expression became more gentle: "Got it?"
"I'm going to buy new clothes now!" An Ruoyun ran out of the pavilion and prepared to go to the department store to buy a new set of clothes, at least to match the style of his brother Younian!
………………
"Su Younian, what message did you just receive?" Gu Qing looked around. At this moment, Su Younian had turned into a human-powered bag-carrying machine, with various bags hanging on both his left and right hands.
"Nothing, I just have to go out for dinner with someone tonight..." Su Younian was talking when An Ruoyun came towards him.
"Who are you going to dinner with?" Gu Qing asked casually. He had already started thinking about how to get Su Younian to give up the dinner plan and accompany him for dinner.
My younger brother has already gone home to show off his harvest to mom.
So I am free!
"An Ruoyun..." But from Su Younian's perspective, the person in front of him was An Ruoyun, the person he was going to have dinner with in the evening.
At this moment, An Ruoyun had also seen Su Younian. After they exchanged glances, the former smiled, but the latter quickly looked away.
"An Ruoyun!" Gu Qing was confused by Su Younian's words and looked at Su Younian in front of him: "Are you going out to eat with her?"
"Ah! No! That..." Su Younian was trying to explain, but An Ruoyun had already taken the initiative to speak for her fiancé.
"Hmm? Miss Gu Qing?" An Ruoyun walked up to Gu Qing with a faint smile on his face. "I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Mr. An!" Gu Qing's face was instantly filled with excitement: "Are you shopping here?"
At the same time, Gu Qing also looked behind her. Although she had an average relationship with An Ruoyun, she also thought that she had a very good relationship with An Ruoyun's personal secretary, An Yi.
But what disappointed Gu Qing was that there was no one behind An Ruoyun today, and there was no trace of An Yi at all.
"Yes, I'm alone today and I'm going to buy some clothes." Although he was talking to Gu Qing, An Ruoyun looked at Su Younian with a sour look.
When my brother Younian and I went shopping as children, he never carried my bag for me.
"Miss...Ruoyun." The first word that came out of his mouth was Ruoyun, but after hesitating for a moment, Su Younian added the word "Miss" as a suffix: "Have you eaten?"
Ah... Su Younian is such an idiot. It's not appropriate to ask whether I want to eat or not at this moment.
Gu Qing was almost speechless at Su Younian's low emotional intelligence. Even if the other party said he didn't eat, so what? Could the two of them still accompany him to eat?
"No, if you don't mind, how about I treat you two to some afternoon tea?" It was around two o'clock in the afternoon, which was indeed the perfect time for afternoon tea.
At the same time, An Ruoyun also wanted to sit with her fiancé for a while.
"Please let me treat you. Why don't we go over there?" Gu Qing pointed at a nearby Starbucks and said, "I heard the pasta there is good?"
This pasta is not just a casual dish.
Gu Qing thought about it carefully. Since An Ruoyun didn't eat, it meant that he must be very hungry. Since he was hungry, what could be more suitable for afternoon tea than pasta?
"Yeah! Okay!" But in front of Su Younian, all of Gu Qing's plans were destined to be empty. An Ruoyun nodded hurriedly, and at the same time "conveniently" took half of Su Younian's bag: "Brother Younian, let me help you with the bag?"
"Okay!" Su Younian calmly threw the bag to An Ruoyun, while Gu Qing directly snatched the bag from An Ruoyun's hand and said, "I'll do it! I'll do it!"
Chapter 19: Not covering what should be covered, and not covering what shouldn't be covered
In order to prevent Su Younian from continuing to talk nonsense, Gu Qing sent him out to order, and An Ruoyun showed a lack of interest the first second after Su Younian left.
Forehead?
Is there something wrong with me?
Gu Qing carefully checked the words he used in his communication with An Ruoyun.
I couldn't figure out what went wrong that would make this person show such a lack of interest in me.
"Mr. An..."
"Just call me by my name, or if you don't mind, you can call me sister. I remember that Sister Gu, you are already eighteen years old, right?" An Ruoyun interrupted Gu Qing and then spoke with a bit of envy: "It's great to be eighteen years old."
If I were eighteen years old, I could even consider getting officially engaged to Brother Younian, right?
"Okay, Sister Ruoyun?" Tentatively changing the name, Gu Qing glanced at Su Younian who was holding a cup of coffee in the distance and urged him slightly: "Su Younian, can you hurry up! You are so clumsy!"
"Here it comes, here it comes! So many things..." Coffee, snacks, pasta, Su Younian's hand was full of a tray full of afternoon tea for the three of them to enjoy, but just when he was about to put down the tray, two pairs of small hands reached out at the same time.
"Let me help you!" Coincidentally, both An Ruoyun, who had always had an indifferent expression, and Gu Qing, who had disliked Su Younian from the beginning, spoke at this moment to express their desire to help.
But Su Younian only had a tray in his hand, so who to give it to became the primary issue.
Gu Qing was dumbfounded.
It would be wrong for me to reach out and snatch the opportunity from An Ruoyun now, and it would also be wrong for me to withdraw my hand and not snatch the opportunity from An Ruoyun.
The former is not giving face, and the latter is not knowing the limits.
"Move your hand away! How can I put it like this!" The awkward situation disappeared with Su Younian's complaints, and An Ruoyun also began to eat the pasta in small bites.
"Su Younian, who are you going to have dinner with tonight?" An Ruoyun was eating and naturally couldn't talk, so Gu Qing started chatting with Su Younian: "Could it be An Qiyu? Do you want to make peace with her?"
An Ruoyun, who was chewing pasta in small bites, widened her eyes slightly. She naturally knew who her fiancé was going to have dinner with in the evening, but she wanted to know more whether her fiancé was really going to reconcile with An Qiyu now?
"Reconcile?" Speaking of An Qiyu, Su Younian's face also showed a bit of melancholy. She was the first girl who had ever made a throbbing sound in his heart, but in the end, they were separated because of their status issues: "Qiyu, she doesn't even talk to me now."
This is not a lie.
The reason why Su Younian did not return to the R&D department of Su Group was because An Ruoyun was actually quite awkward to get along with him.
Theoretically, the two of them no longer had any personal relationship, after all, they broke up peacefully, but when they really looked into each other's eyes, Su Younian could still feel a lot of discomfort in his heart.
"Is that so? Let me tell you, the most important thing for a girl is to coax her. Why are you so talkative in front of me?" Thinking of Su Younian's words of comfort, Gu Qing's eyes flashed with some tenderness: "So, are you sure you're single now?"
“…” Looking at An Ruoyun, Su Younian did not answer Gu Qing’s question.
"How about I introduce a girl to you, Brother Younian?" An Ruoyun's heart was beating fast under the gaze of her fiancé. After swallowing the food in her mouth, she said lightly: "Or I have a good relationship with An Qiyu. If Brother Younian needs it, I can help you to talk to her!"
"No thanks." Leaning back in his seat, Su Younian just shook his head helplessly: "A forced melon is not sweet."
"An Qiyu and I have a similar net worth, and she's an only child. How can you, Su Younian, be a good match for her?" Gu Qing cut a small piece of the ramisu from the front and put it into her mouth, enjoying the delicate and sweet taste of the dessert in her mouth. Then she began to mock the man in front of her: "I think it would be better for you to find someone of equal status!"
