Ruan Mian lowered his eyes slightly. He knew that Lu Yang was worried about him.
He patted his chest reassuringly and tried to sound cheerful as he said, “Baby Lu, I’ve figured it out. Worst case, I’ll listen to my second aunt and move in with the engaged Alpha or Beta for two years. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to take care of myself.”
Lu Yang frowned, looked at him, and said word by word: “I am even more unhappy now.”
“What should I do?” Ruan Mian was a little worried. Lu Yang always had everything he wanted and was rarely in such a bad mood. He didn’t know how to coax him for a while.
Lu Yang glanced at him and slightly curled his lips, “Let me touch your rabbit ears.”
Ruan Mian did not hesitate to change to the rabbit ears, took the initiative to put them in Lu Yang’s hands, and rested his head on Lu Yang’s belly.
Lu Yang gently touched his soft ears and smooth hair, and his mood gradually calmed down.
The sunlight outside shone into the house through the small window. Ruan Mian stared at the light and asked softly, “Baby Lu, what kind of person do you want to marry in the future?”
Lu Yang pinched his ears, “You’re already looking for romance just when you’re about to have a blind date?”
Ruan Mian held his hand and cried out softly, “It hurts!”
Lu Yang relaxed some of his strength, rubbed him, and chatted, “If you have time, why don’t you think about how to answer the question that Lao Wang asked yesterday?”
Lao Wang is their class teacher. He always likes to ask tricky questions for everyone to study. Ruan Mian used to like to answer Lao Wang’s questions when he was free, but now he is not in the mood.
“Baby Lu, just say it casually. What kind of Alpha do you want to find in the future?”
Lu Yang is of pure blood, so the Lu family will most likely match him with a pure blood Alpha in the future.
Lu Yang thought about it silently and found that his mind was blank. He had no idea about his future partner. Finally, he could only reluctantly say, “Someone better than me.”
Ruan Mian thought about it, and it should be difficult to find someone better than Lu Yang; at least it won’t be like Wang Dali just now.
He looked up at Lu Yang, “Baby Lu, after we get married, we may not be able to meet like this often. Will you miss me then?”
It is unknown if it’s because he was thinking about it all night yesterday, but he couldn’t help feeling a little sad today. If he and Baby Lu have their own families, they probably can’t play together all day like this anymore.
Lu Yang lowered his eyes and looked at him for a while, then suddenly sat up and tickled him, “Ruan Tutu, you want to forget me now that you have a partner? Do you have any conscience?”
Ruan Mian was ticklish and couldn’t stop laughing. He begged for mercy, “Of course not; Baby Lu will always be my best friend.”
Lu Yang relaxed his strength slightly, “That’s better.”
Ruan Mian took the opportunity to jump up and stretch out his hand to tickle him. The two laughed and laughed, and then they became crazy and couldn’t stop laughing.
The air gradually filled with more and more sweetness. Ruan Mian’s pheromones smell like cotton candy. Whenever his pheromones encountered Lu Yang’s ice cream, it was just pure sweetness, fragrant and pleasant.
When Lu Yang left Ruan’s house, it was already dark. Ruan Mian sent him off and happened to meet Ruan Heng, who had just returned home, at the entrance of the house. He was Ruan Donglin’s son, Ruan Mian’s cousin, and only six months younger than Ruan Mian.
Ruan Heng should have just recently finished his meal. He looked like he was full and had a lollipop in his mouth. He walked in from the main door in a carefree manner.
He closed the door and looked up to see Ruan Mian. He couldn’t help but breathe out through his nose and snort softly. He walked past Ruan Mian unsteadily and deliberately bumped into Ruan Mian’s shoulder when passing by.
Ruan Mian staggered when he was hit by him unexpectedly. Fortunately, Lu Yang supported him in time.
Lu Yang frowned, grabbed Ruan Heng’s collar, and said in a deep voice: “Behave yourself.”
“What if I won’t?” Ruan Heng nonchalantly sneered and pointed at Ruan Mian, “Dare to touch me, and I’ll say later that he hit me. Let’s see how my dad and mom react.”
Ruan Mian was used to his bullying, so he stopped Lu Yang’s hand and said, “Lu Yang, let go.”
When there were outsiders, Ruan Mian knew that Lu Yang didn’t like the name ‘Baby Lu’ and usually didn’t call him that.
Lu Yang tensed his arms, stared at Ruan Heng for a while, and finally took a deep breath and let go of Ruan Heng’s collar.
Ruan Heng couldn’t help but smile, stretched out his hand to adjust his collar, and looked up at Lu Yang smugly.
When he found that Lu Yang was a full head taller than him, he couldn’t help but sneer: “An Omega so tall, can he get married in the future?”
Alphas are born to protect the weak, and often like delicate and thin Omegas. Lu Yang is so tall that it is difficult for Alphas to have the desire to protect him.
Just now, Ruan Mian, who had been timid earlier, immediately interjected upon hearing this. He stood in front of Lu Yang with his hands on his hips and retorted, “Our precious Baby Lu is so beautiful; of course he will marry well.”
Upon hearing this, Ruan Heng glanced jealously at Lu Yang’s face and disdainfully sneered, “Cold as ice all over. Which Alpha would like that?”
In fact, he has always been secretly jealous of Lu Yang in his heart. Lu Yang is beautiful and has a good family background.
The Lu family is not only an interstellar noble; Lu Yang is also the grandson of a marshal, and it is rumored that there is an endless stream of people who want to marry and claim him, and all of them are worth a lot of money.
Ruan Mian got even angrier when he heard his words, “Nonsense! Our Baby Lu seems cold because his pheromones smell like ice cream, but he’s actually soft and sweet inside!”
Ruan Heng saw that Ruan Mian was determined not to let him say anything bad about Lu Yang, so he couldn’t help but roll his eyes and say to Wu Yongjuan, who had just entered the room, “Mom, the two of them are bullying me again.”
Wu Yongjuan took off her shoes and put her bag on the table. When she heard this, she looked up and glared at Ruan Mian. When she saw Lu Yang next to Ruan Mian, her eyes were slightly restrained. Ruan Donglin often went to Marshal Lu for help, and so she didn’t dare to give his grandson a cold look.
“Second Aunt,” Ruan Mian called out obediently, lowered his head, and pulled Lu Yang out, “I’ll see you off.”
When they walked past Wu Yongjuan, she lowered her eyes and glanced at the two of them holding hands, and after holding back for a moment, she still couldn’t help but snort softly and say in a sarcastic tone: “What’s the use of being a good friend? You will all get married in the future. No one can protect each other for a lifetime.”
Lu Yang and Ruan Mian ignored her, just pretending not to hear her words, and walked out directly.
Ruan Heng watched the door close again, walked to his mother, and couldn’t help complaining and muttering, “Hurry up and kick Ruan Mian out. I’m still waiting to turn his room into a gym. I’ve even chosen the gym equipment I want to buy.”
“I know, it won’t take long.” Wu Yongjuan patted his hand and whispered to comfort him, “Just bear with it for a few more days. When Ruan Mian moves out and lives far away, Lu Yang won’t be able to control his affairs anymore. You can do whatever you want to him then.”
Ruan Heng felt a little better and asked, “Mom, have you decided who to take him to?”
“Your third uncle’s house, I’ve made an appointment with your cousin. I’ll take him to a blind date tomorrow. Whether he’s willing or not, we’ll get them engaged first. That’s all.”
Ruan Heng frowned and said unhappily: “Why choose my cousin? Why do you have to marry him to a relative? Do you think he is not annoying enough? My cousin is handsome. Instead of marrying him to my cousin, why not choose a Beta who lives far away and drive him away? Why keep him here to torment my cousin?”
“What do you know?” Wu Yongjuan pinched him, lowered her voice, and said: “Do you know that the house we’re living in now, the car, all of them were left by your uncle before.”
“So what? Now they are all ours.” Ruan Heng didn’t care. He looked around the room. These things were his. What did they have to do with Ruan Mian?
Wu Yongjuan looked around and lowered her voice even more. “Then do you know that Ruan Mian not only has a rich father but also a richer mother!”
“What do you mean?” Ruan Heng was stunned. His parents rarely mentioned Ruan Mian’s father in recent years, so he didn’t know them well.
Wu Yongjuan looked out the window and made sure that Ruan Mian hadn’t come back yet, then she explained in a low voice, “We took over Ruan Mian’s father’s money after he passed away, but his mother’s money was specifically left to him. The estate stated that he would inherit the property when he was 18 years old. Your father tried every way but couldn’t get the money.”
“Is his mother that rich?”
“Of course,” Wu Yongjuan recalled the past with some resentment. “His mother came from a noble family and brought a lot of dowry. She even ran her own business, much wealthier than his father.”
Ruan Heng opened his eyes wide in surprise and said indignantly, “He will be that rich? Why?”
Their family has been living a life of luxury just by taking his uncle’s money. If Ruan Mian’s mother is richer than his father, wouldn’t he be able to turn from a pheasant into a phoenix in one leap?
Wu Yongjuan crossed her arms and stroked her son’s head. “So if I don’t quickly find a way to marry him into our own family now, am I supposed to wait until he turns 18 and takes this wealth to someone else’s home?”
She narrowed her eyes and said confidently, “I have already made an agreement with your third uncle that we will split the money 50-50 after we get it, and not a penny will be left for Ruan Mian. This is the real way to keep the money within the family.”
Ruan Heng was still a little dissatisfied, “Why should we give them so much? I think it should be 20-80.”
Wu Yongjuan smiled, “That’s all for later. After we deal with Ruan Mian, we will have time to rob him then.”
Ruan Heng immediately laughed. Once he gets that wealth, he’ll be considered half a noble.
