Ruan Mian originally thought he could finally have some peace and quiet this time, but he didn’t expect Wu Yongjuan to actually bring another nephew of hers over.
Ruan Mian: “…” You have so many relatives.
“Xiao Mian, come and see who’s here!” Wu Yongjuan’s voice was very enthusiastic.
Ruan Mian looked up helplessly, and when he saw Ren Ge, he was stunned for a moment. After reacting, he stood up in surprise and said happily: “Brother Ren, you’re back?”
He originally thought that the nephew Wu Yongjuan was talking about was someone else, but he didn’t expect it to be Ren Ge, who had been abroad for three years. If Ruan Mian had a good impression of any of Wu Yongjuan’s relatives, that person must be Ren Ge.
Ren Ge was as gentle as ever. He smiled gently at Ruan Mian, reached out and touched his hair, and whispered: “Mn, I just came back yesterday.”
Wu Yongjuan looked at the two of them, reached out and pushed Ruan Mian, “Hurry up and sit down and chat with your brother Ren. I remember you used to get along very well.”
Ruan Mian was pushed to sit on the chair by her, and Ren Ge sat opposite him.
“You guys chat, I won’t disturb you.” Wu Yongjuan looked at them, smiled with satisfaction, and turned back to the living room.
Ren Ge is her last trump card, and he must succeed. Ren Ge is excellent in both character and academics, and has been the most outstanding one among the younger generation since childhood. Unless absolutely necessary, she wouldn’t have been willing to introduce him to Ruan Mian.
Ruan Mian sat on the stool, staring somewhat dazedly at Ren Ge across from him. He never expected that the seat across from him would change from one person to another, ultimately ending up with Ren Ge. What surprised him even more was that one day, he would be sitting here on a blind date with Ren Ge.
… This is a disastrous life.
Ren Ge couldn’t help but smile at his expression, “Don’t you want me to sit here?”
Ruan Mian shook his head and asked softly, “Brother Ren, do you want to go on a blind date with me?”
“Yeah.” Ren Ge looked gentle and spoke softly, revealing a gentleness, “Don’t you want to?”
“Not really…” Ruan Mian frowned in confusion, and said restlessly in a low voice, “I just feel a little awkward.”
When he was a child, every New Year’s Day, Ruan Mian was very unhappy when he followed Wu Yongjuan back to her mother’s house, because Wu Yongjuan’s relatives either didn’t want to pay attention to him or bullied him, but he was too young at that time to stay at home alone, so he could only follow her back to her mother’s house.
At that time, only Ren Ge treated him like a younger brother, often taught him to do his homework, and stopped others from bullying him, but it was a pity that Ren Ge went abroad to study three years ago, and he hadn’t seen Ren Ge for a long time.
Ruan Mian was naturally happy after not seeing each other for a long time, but now this blind date relationship situation makes him feel a little embarrassed.
Ren Ge looked at him and chuckled twice, poured him a glass of water and said, “I won’t tease you anymore, let’s talk business.”
“What business?” Ruan Mian asked, relaxing a bit upon hearing him speak seriously.
Ren Ge crossed his hands on the table, looked at him, and asked seriously, “Do you know why my second aunt forced you to go on a blind date? And all the people she picked are her relatives?”
Ren Ge’s second aunt is Wu Yongjuan.
Hearing his words, Ruan Mian shook his head gently, “I don’t know.”
Although he felt there might be something fishy going on, he didn’t understand why he was asking like this.
Ren Ge glanced at Wu Yongjuan not far away. Wu Yongjuan thought that the two of them were having a good chat, so she smiled at him immediately.
Ren Ge retracted his gaze and told Ruan Mian truthfully: “She did this because your mother left you a fortune. This fortune will be handed over to you by a lawyer when you are 18 years old. My second aunt is planning to take this fortune.”
Ruan Mian opened his eyes wide in surprise. He thought that all the property left by his parents had been taken away by Ruan Donglin, but he didn’t expect that there was still something left.
He had a vague memory of his parents. He only vaguely remembered that they seemed to be very rich and seemed to be very busy at work. The rest was unclear.
Ren Ge continued: “When I came back yesterday, it was only then that I heard about this from my mom. So I came over today specifically to remind you, don’t fall for it.”
Ruan Mian couldn’t help but smile gratefully at Ren Ge, “Brother Ren, thank you for telling me this.”
Although he now knew the reason why Wu Yongjuan did this, he had no ability to resist, but he was really happy and grateful that Ren Ge could tell him about this.
Ren Ge asked in a low voice: “Is there anything I can help you with?”
Ruan Mian looked up at him, Ren Ge’s eyes looked very gentle. He was stunned for a moment and whispered: “I do have one more thing I’d like to ask brother Ren for.”
“What is it?” Ren Ge’s eyes were somewhat inexplicably expectant.
“I want to leave here, can you take me away? I want to go back to the capital now.”
“Is that all?”
“Yeah.” Ruan Mian nodded.
Ren Ge seemed a little disappointed. He glanced at the time. It was already dark now. It would probably be past ten o’clock when they returned to the capital. However, he did not ask any more questions. He just nodded and agreed, “Okay.”
Ruan Mian was delighted, “Great!”
Ren Ge smiled and took him to the living room, “Second Aunt, Xiao Mian and I will go out for a while.”
Wu Yongjuan was stunned for a moment. She did not expect that they would reach an agreement so quickly. She stood up and asked, “Aren’t you staying for dinner? The food is ready.”
Ren Ge shook his head, “Xiao Mian and I will go out for dinner, and then go back to the capital directly. You don’t have to wait for us.”
Wu Yongjuan was delighted. She thought that the two of them had made progress. She could not help but put down the heavy stone in her heart. She nodded immediately and smiled without thinking too much, saying, “Okay, then you guys go quickly.”
“Mn, then we’ll go first.” Ren Ge took Ruan Mian out.
Wu Yongjuan looked at their backs and couldn’t help feeling happy. Although she felt it was a pity to let Ren Ge marry Ruan Mian, she couldn’t help getting excited when she thought about the money that was about to go into her pocket. After a busy day, she finally got it done.
As Ruan Mian walked out, he took out his phone to share the good news with Lu Yang, but when he took it out, he found that the phone was out of power and turned it off.
He had no choice but to put the phone back in his pocket, thinking that he would give Lu Yang a surprise when he returned later. Calculating the time, he should be able to rush back before twelve o’clock, and he would still have time to say happy birthday to Lu Yang face-to-face.
As he thought about it, he couldn’t help but curl his lips in a good mood.
Ren Ge looked at the smile on his face, “Are you so happy to go back?”
“Yeah!” Ruan Mian nodded vigorously, “Brother Ren, thank you so much.”
Ren Ge came to the parking lot with him, helped him open the car door, and said with a curved lip: “If you want to thank me, why not treat me to a meal next time?”
Ruan Mian got into the car and agreed immediately, “Okay, Brother Ren, tell me what you want to eat. My scholarship will be paid next week, so I can treat you to a meal.”
Ren Ge helped him fasten his seat belt, reached out and touched his hair again, smiled without comment, and only said: “Let’s have dinner together next time.”
He started the car and looked at the navigation, asking, “Shall we head straight home?”
Ruan Mian held the backpack in his arms, touched the photo album inside, and said, “Brother Ren, just take me to the gate of the inner area of East City later.”
Ren Ge glanced at the road ahead, raising an eyebrow slightly. “Not going home?”
“Yes, today is Lu Yang’s birthday, and I want to celebrate it with him.”
Ren Ge looked up at him and smiled gently, “You two have been in love since childhood, but I don’t know why Lu Yang has never liked me.”
Speaking of this, Ruan Mian couldn’t help feeling guilty. Lu Yang really didn’t like Ren Ge. It was the territorial consciousness of the arctic wolf that was at work.
Before Ren Ge went abroad, there was a period of time when Wu Yongjuan and Ruan Donglin took their son abroad for vacation on a whim, so they handed Ruan Mian to Ren Ge to take care of and let Ruan Mian move to Ren Ge’s home.
At that time, Ruan Mian used to stay with Lu Yang every day. Even after school, he would go to Lu’s house to do homework together. After finishing homework, they would play together for a while, and then Ruan Mian would go home.
But since Ruan Mian moved to Ren Ge’s house, because he lived far away, Ruan Mian could not go to Lu’s house after school, so they had less time to spend together.
Lu Yang was a little unhappy, but arctic wolves were arrogant, so he naturally wouldn’t say it.
Ruan Mian lived with Ren Ge. In addition to Lu Yang, he had the most contact with Ren Ge, so when he talked, he mentioned Ren Ge more and more often. Lu Yang would frown every time he heard Ren Ge’s name, but Ruan Mian didn’t know the reason, and just thought he was in a bad mood.
When the summer vacation came, Lu Yang thought Ruan Mian could finally go to his house often this time. However, to his surprise, Ren Ge took Ruan Mian on a road trip instead. This time, Lu Yang couldn’t even catch a glimpse of them.
Ren Ge had good intentions. He saw that the three members of the Ruan family went out to play and left Ruan Mian behind. He was worried that Ruan Mian would be sad, so he took advantage of the holiday to take Ruan Mian out for a trip.
When Lu Yang found out, Ruan Mian and Ren Ge had already set off.
Later, Ruan Mian heard from Ning Mixiang that Lu Yang was so angry that he didn’t eat for a whole day. Until Ruan Mian came back, he exuded a cold aura that kept strangers away.
That was the first time that Ruan Mian and Lu Yang had been apart for so long since they met. After Ruan Mian came back, he coaxed Lu Yang for a long time, but Lu Yang refused to pay attention to him.
Until one day, Lu Yang suddenly bit his neck. From then on, Lu Yang finally paid attention to him.
Ning Mixiang saw the bite marks on his neck and explained to him privately that this was the nature of the arctic wolf. Arctic wolves had a strong sense of territory and did not like others to touch their things. Lu Yang bit him, which was equivalent to declaring sovereignty and letting him smell like him.
Since then, Ruan Mian has automatically reduced the number of times he mentions Ren Ge in front of Lu Yang, but even so, Lu Yang still does not like Ren Ge.
Every time he saw Ren Ge, he had a sour face, as if Ren Ge owed him a lot of money. This situation did not improve until Ren Ge went abroad.
