—My wedding date with him is next month.
Mr. Ruan, please get up soon. It's raining so hard and you must be so tired. Go back and have some rest. I want to invite you to be the maid of honor at Xiaohai and I's wedding.
She went to the teahouse to meet a man and then went to the bank.
…
A sudden kiss.
A mixture of strength, anger, and hatred.
After a brief moment of shock, Qin Haiyao closed her eyes and put her arms around Ruan Yihan's neck.
Ruan Yihan pulled her arm away and said, "Don't touch me."
Qin Haiyao felt a pain in her heart. She leaned against the wall, not moving or resisting, and let her vent her anger.
Ruan Yihan's cruelty and domineering manner, without any trace of tenderness, tore at Qin Haiyao's neck with deep hatred.
Before, Ruan Yihan would complain to Xiaohai when she was very tired: "I'm so tired, I really want to drop everything and elope with you."
Qin Haiyao would hug her from behind and kiss her little by little, from her earlobe to her neck, then turn her around and kiss her lips, until Ruan Yihan blushed and her eyes changed, she would smile softly: "Do you feel better?"
Ruan Yihan reached out to untie her belt and bit her lip: "You are always so gentle, I can't be rough with you even if I want to."
Qin Haiyao smiled, leaned forward, and poked her collarbone: "What are you thinking about? Put down your belt."
…
Once upon a time, she had no way to be rough and could only be endlessly gentle and doting.
But now... I can't even be gentle...
The lights in the corridor went out.
Blocking out everything, the only sounds that could be heard were Ruan Yihan's heavy breathing and Qin Haiyao's faint, intermittent, and broken voices.
Even though it's pitch black and you can't see anything, it still gives people endless imagination.
Ali, who had been peeping in the dark, touched her nose. Her eyes widened, and after making sure there was no bleeding, she turned and ran.
She ran too fast and kicked the trash can next to her, falling down. She quickly got up and ran again.
With a "bang", the light came on again.
Ruan Yihan, who had already torn the clothes off Qin Haiyao's shoulders, froze. She turned around and saw only A Li's panicked back.
Ruan Yihan's breathing had not yet recovered. She leaned against the wall with one hand and prepared to leave. Qin Haiyao looked at her, grabbed her hot hand with one hand and placed it in front of her, "Mr. Ruan, do you want to continue? I can do it."
There was silence.
Ruan Yihan didn't say anything. She withdrew her hand, turned around and went into the house.
If Qin Haiyao had made such an invitation before, she would definitely have executed the person on the spot and would have been excited to the point of going crazy.
But now, she has no interest at all and even feels disgusted.
Once people's hearts change, everything is different.
The room was filled with the smell of Ruan Yihan's favorite sweet and sour pork ribs.
That is the taste that only Qin Haiyao can make.
Ruan Yihan has been to many restaurants, five-star, chain, and affordable ones... None of them have such a taste.
She turned around and looked at the person who was slowly walking in from the door. Only then did she see that she still had an apron tied around her waist. It seemed that she had just finished cooking.
This kind of homely outfit used to appear frequently in Ruan Yihan's dreams.
In the dream, Qin Haiyao smelled sweet and her eyes were filled with her usual doting. She would touch Ruan Yihan's face and say softly, "Ahhan, come and eat."
When Ruan Yihan acted like a spoiled child and refused to move, Qin Haiyao would bend down to kiss her.
But the next second, Qin Haiyao's face suddenly changed, and she grabbed her neck tightly without showing any mercy.
Every time she had this dream, Ruan Yihan would wake up with a start, her back covered in sweat, and she would sit there with a pale face. After a long time of calming down, she could no longer fall asleep and so she sat there until dawn.
…
Love is her, hate is her, everything is given by her.
Qin Haiyao went into the house and brought out the prepared honey water and handed it to her: "Drink some, your head will feel better."
Ruan Yihan tilted her head in annoyance and unbuttoned her clothes with one hand: "Did I ask you to come here to cook for me?"
Oh, yes, playthings.
Qin Haiyao curled up the corners of her mouth in a mocking manner, looking at Ruan Yihan, who was already sitting on the sofa, pinching her temples irritably. She slowly walked over, knelt down beside her sofa, took away her hand, and gently massaged her.
The slender fingers were cool, and the strength of the fingertips was just right to relieve the throbbing pain deep in the nerves.
Ruan Yihan has a habit when drinking. Most people’s reactions would be either blushing or dizziness, and she also has those symptoms, but the most serious problem is pain in her temples.
Every time she felt uncomfortable, she felt like a sledgehammer was hitting her and she was about to explode.
Ruan Yihan didn't say anything, but her body relaxed.
Qin Haiyao's method remained the same. She knew her best and knew how to ease her temper.
Slender fingers were scented, and her body was soft against hers.
If she didn't open her eyes, it would really be like a dream.
Qin Haiyao looked at Ruan Yihan who closed her eyes like a cat, her lips curled up lazily, and her heart suddenly softened.
I don’t know how long it took.
Seeing Ruan Yihan's brows relax, Qin Haiyao went to get the honey water prepared next to her. Ruan Yihan looked at her with half-open eyes, not moving, just raised her eyebrows.
Understanding what she meant, Qin Haiyao raised her head and took a sip. She sat astride Ruan Yihan, put her arms around her neck, and fed her the liquid with her mouth.
Bite after bite.
Can't tell you from me.
Such a scene was difficult and embarrassing for Qin Haiyao to talk about. She wished Ruan Yihan could close her eyes and not look at her like she did just now.
But Ruan Yihan seemed to do it on purpose. She stared at Qin Haiyao, her eyes like gems, glowing with a cold light.
The smell of alcohol was mixed with the flavor of mint. After feeding her a few times, Qin Haiyao felt like she was drunk. Her body became soft and her hands became weaker and weaker. Ruan Yihan felt it. She lifted Qin Haiyao's long hair with one hand and gently stroked her face with her fingertips.
The two of them were too close.
Knowing it's impossible.
But Qin Haiyao's eyes gradually became blurred. She looked at Ruan Yihan and felt her hands gently caressing her face, bringing up waves of electricity.
She leaned forward slightly, looked at Ruan Yihan's lips, and swallowed. Ruan Yihan saw it and sneered: "Teacher Qin, you are so dissolute, is it in your bones?" She seemed to have thought of something, and curled her lips: "I think your parents are much more honest than you."
Qin Haiyao closed her eyes and endured her sarcasm.
I knew she did it on purpose, but I didn't dare to tell the truth.
What Ruan Yihan hated the most was Qin Haiyao's forbearing look. She put her hands on Qin Haiyao's waist and pressed her down directly.
Qin Haiyao didn't move. She had no strength and didn't want to resist. No matter how fierce it was, she could accept it if it was given by Ruan Yihan.
But Ruan Yihan didn't want to let her go like this. She looked into her eyes and said coldly, "Tell me what you want."
Qin Haiyao looked into her eyes, bit her lip and said nothing.
Ruan Yihan smiled, her eyes were cold, her hands were on those graceful curves, she refused to say anything, but she had plenty of ways to make her speak.
In the end, Qin Haiyao was completely defeated. She sobbed and hugged Ruan Yihan: "I want..."
Ruan Yihan looked into her eyes: "Beg me."
Even if everything in the past was fake, her familiarity with this body was not fake.
She knew Qin Haiyao too well and knew how to make her happy, make her suffer, and even make her collapse.
Qin Haiyao looked into her eyes, as if hypnotized: "Please..."
…
The ribs in the pot are still stewing.
In the end, it was the burning smell that stopped the heat.
Qin Haiyao was lying on the sofa, with half of her clothes stripped off. Her body was shaking, her breathing was unstable, and her eyes were watery. She looked at Ruan Yihan helplessly and fragilely.
Her long hair fell on her lips. She was soaked with sweat, but Ruan Yihan was dressed neatly. She stood up and looked at Qin Haiyao without emotion. "Are you enjoying it?"
enjoy…
Qin Haiyao knew that she did it on purpose, deliberately to see her break down and deliberately to embarrass her.
Endless provocations, but never getting to the point.
Ruan Yihan watched her lose control with a teasing smile on her face. She knew that she was in extreme pain, but she still let her get stuck halfway up the mountain, unable to go up or down.
What's the point of getting her like this
She loosened her hand.
Qin Haiyao lowered her head, her long hair hiding her expression, but the residual warmth of her body could not conceal it.
Ruan Yihan's eyes were dark, and she stared at her for a while, then suddenly asked, "Why do you know I can sign language?"
Qin Haiyao raised her head suddenly, her heart felt like it was pricked by a needle, and she stared into Ruan Yihan's eyes.
The suppressed fire in Ruan Yihan's eyes almost jumped out. She stared at Qin Haiyao and was silent for a moment. Qin Haiyao lowered her head and said, "I think... For a big family like the Ruan family, Mr. Ruan should have been exposed to the education of heirs since he was a child, and he can do everything..."
That was a deliberate test on her part.
She was very tired, and there were times when she really wanted to tell Ruan Yihan everything and stop pretending.
But this attempt failed.
Qin Haiyao could clearly get her answer from Ruan Yihan's eyes.
Once she knew that she also had the memories of the past, she would strangle her mercilessly... or even kill her, and there would be no turning back.
She wanted to buy some time, as she had a lot of things to say, and she wanted to lead Ruan Yihan to remove the veil little by little and see with her eyes.
Ruan Yihan curled the corners of her lips and smiled playfully, "Omnipotent? You haven't gotten what I'm best at yet."
She moved her fingers. Qin Haiyao knew what she meant and turned her head away with a red face. Ruan Yihan shook her head and went in to take a shower.
She drank too much tonight and couldn't stand the smell of alcohol.
Came out of the shower.
Qin Haiyao was still busy in the kitchen. The spare ribs were burnt, so she had to make them again. She was frying sugar color with a spatula in her hand when she heard the phone ringing in the living room.
It’s grandma.
Grandma Ruan’s voice should never be underestimated. “Where have you been again???!!! I’m so strong, how dare you not go home???”
That little bastard Ali actually had the guts to lie to her, saying that Mr. Ruan was working overtime. Grandma hit him with her cane and he ran away like a rabbit grabbing grass.
Ruan Yihan's ears were buzzing, and she held the phone further away. "Why aren't you asleep yet, grandma? Didn't I ask Ali to tell you that I'm working overtime?"
"Overtime, what time is it? What the hell is overtime!"
Grandma Ruan saw that she was itching again. Ruan Yihan curled the corners of her lips, turned on the hands-free, and rubbed the water off her hair with a towel with both hands: "What are you doing, grandma?"
"I ask you!"
Grandma Ruan said in a loud voice, "Do you like Zhenyue?"
What
Ruan Yihan was stunned and looked at her phone. Qin Haiyao in the kitchen was also stiff. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat and she froze.
These were the words that had been hanging in her mind, like a thorn in her throat. She had always wanted to ask Ruan Yihan, but had never dared to say them out loud.
The tacit understanding between them had made her jealous and crazy countless times.
Grandma Ruan: "I'm asking you if you like Zhenyue? Jiang Zhenyue!"
What the hell is wrong with this grandma in the middle of the night
Ruan Yihan was helpless, "Grandma, what are you doing? Zhenyue and I grew up together, like sisters, how could I possibly like her?"
Her feeling towards Jiang Zhenyue was more like that of a younger sister towards a beautiful older sister.
Zhenyue was one year older than her, and had a hot temper since she was young. Although she was very protective of her among the children, perhaps because of the deep experience of being poked on the butt and chased and beaten when she was a child, Ruan Yihan was inexplicably afraid of her. Especially Yueyue's eyes, which were sharp and deep, as if nothing could be hidden from her.
As soon as the words fell.
Ruan Yihan smelled a burnt smell. She looked into the kitchen and saw Qin Haiyao standing there blankly, as if she was in a trance.
It wasn't until Ruan Yihan stood up, walked to her side, frowned and asked her what she was doing with her eyes that Qin Haiyao came back to her senses. She quickly turned on the range hood and turned off the fire.
"What's that noise? Whose house are you at?"
Grandma Ruan called out "hello" a few times, and Ruan Yihan held the phone helplessly: "Grandma, go to bed."
"Why are you sleeping?" Grandma Ruan was very angry. "You run out every day, fooling around, and you are not serious at your age. Tomorrow at 8 o'clock, I will invite your aunt Wen's child Wenlian to have afternoon tea. She is the little girl you saw before. She has very long legs, is quiet and gentle, loves to laugh, and is very cute. You can tell at a glance that she is a good girl. Tomorrow, you have to come back to me even if there is a fire outside! Otherwise, I will break your legs! I have prepared a gift for you, that sapphire necklace, and you have to put it in your pocket later. With your personality, I don’t know where you will throw it if you don’t carry it with you!"
Ruan Yihan understood what she heard and laughed angrily: "Grandma, aren't you trying to match people up? Also, what gift should I give you for the first meeting?"
Grandma started to worry about her marriage again.
The old lady couldn't help but worry. She watched her granddaughter getting thinner day by day and unable to sleep night after night. She was getting anxious that she might get pregnant.
No matter how big the enterprise or group is, what does it matter
If a person is ruined, what is the use of all those material things
I feel sad but there is nothing I can do.
Today she specially asked Wang Lin to find a psychologist, who said that it might be due to too much pressure. He suggested various methods and said that the most effective one was to divert attention.
Grandma Ruan was impatient: "Besides those stress-relieving and relaxing methods, what method is the fastest to achieve results?"
The doctor smiled and said, "Don't worry. In fact, we can let President Ruan divert his attention. A child of President Ruan's age from an ordinary family should be immersed in the nourishment of love at this time. I don't know how happy he is."
When Grandma Ruan heard this, she became interested, but she was cautious and unsure about the relationship between her granddaughter and Yueyue, so she could only ask in advance and only take further action after confirming.
"This is politeness, it means we value you. If you dare not come back, you'll see!"
Without waiting for Ruan Yihan to react, grandma hung up the phone with a "click".
Ruan Yihan looked at the phone and smiled helplessly, feeling that this old lady was really worrying too much. She turned her head and looked at Qin Haiyao. When she saw her complicated expression, Ruan Yihan raised her eyebrows.
Qin Haiyao looked at her, with all kinds of emotions such as uneasiness, entanglement and fear rolling in her heart, like a tide that raised wave after wave of mad wolves.
if…
She fell in love with someone else.
Perhaps, it was a relief for Ruan Yihan. Even if the truth really came out someday, she would no longer be so painful.
But what about her? What is she
This kind of thought happened not just now, but many times in the past, Qin Haiyao's mind always wanted to let her go, but in the end, whether it was love or hate, she could not let go of that person.
Just like before...
When she took the card and plane ticket to find Ruan Yihan.
She was heartbroken.
It was like she was being torn out of her heart, but she still acted like she didn't care and said cruel and heartless words.
That time, if A-li hadn't come to her and hadn't disturbed her mother, and if Ruan Yihan had left... they would most likely never see each other again.
Then she and grandma...
Ruan Yihan stared at Qin Haiyao, taking in her expression. She asked in a cold tone, "What are you thinking about?"
Every time Qin Haiyao showed such a painful and tangled expression, she couldn't help but wonder if this woman was planning to plot against her again.
Qin Haiyao lowered her head: "No."
Ruan Yihan stared at her for a moment, and she said slowly: "Qin Haiyao, what are you thinking about? Have you ever told me the truth?"
This sentence is not only about her present, but also about her past.
Qin Haiyao's heart beat faster. She didn't know what Ruan Yihan meant and thought she had discovered something.
Waited for a moment.
Not getting a response, Ruan Yihan shook her head, smiled sarcastically, and turned to get the clothes on the sofa.
"where did you go?"
Qin Haiyao took a step after him, and Ruan Yihan turned her head away, her eyes full of indifference: "Go home."
What else
Do you want to stay here
Ruan Yihan's words reminded Qin Haiyao of her identity at this time. She fell silent. Ruan Yihan did not stay and turned to leave.
Until the door was closed.
Qin Haiyao slowly squatted down and said softly: "Ah Han, please don't love others..."
Without her, she would lose the meaning of existence.
Early the next morning.
Grandma Ruan caught Ruan Yihan and kept nagging: "Grandma knows you are annoyed with me, but you have to listen to me. Your Aunt Wen's daughter is a lady from a wealthy family, but her taste is a bit off. I don't know which banquet she attended, but she said she had a seizure when she got home that day, and she chased her mother to ask about you, and she has been thinking about you ever since. Oh, what a good girl, I don't know why she is so blind."
Ruan Yihan had a messy hair and looked at her grandmother speechlessly.
They said that the elderly need more rest and don’t have enough energy.
Seeing her grandmother like this, she felt that it would be better to bring her to the company and join forces with her to kill Qin Qin.
Grandma Ruan said earnestly: "You are not a child anymore, don't think you are eighteen every day. I have never put pressure on you about the company's affairs, but your girlfriend, you haven't brought her to grandma for so many years. Tell me, are you really like what Ali said? There is something wrong with you. If you are really like that, tell grandma, grandma will not despise you..."
!!!
A Li!!!
Ruan Yihan stood up angrily. She wanted to kill that bastard who talked nonsense every day!
Until dinner time.
When Qin Qin arrived, Grandma Ruan was still nagging: "Tonight, even if I have to kill you, you have to come back."
Qin Qin listened for the whole morning and probably understood what her grandmother meant. She looked at Ruan Yihan, saw her absent-minded look, and smiled: "Ahhan, do you have someone you like? That's why you are so inattentive."
Qin Haiyao and Ruan Yihan's situation is an important step in her arrangement. If something goes wrong, it will affect the overall situation.
Ruan Yihan glanced at her and said, "No, there's nothing I like." She took a sip of coffee and grabbed a strand of hair. "With my status, I have to find someone with a clean family background and a good match. At least—" She glanced at Qin Qin and said, "The parents have to be normal, or I won't know if someone will plot against me later."
Qin Qin stared at Ruan Yihan. Was she hinting at something? Did Xiao Hai reveal something to her
Ever since Duan Zi was injured, Qin Qin has become increasingly dissatisfied with her daughter's behavior and conduct. She would not allow such a loss of control.
Grandma Ruan said sullenly, "Don't give me any nonsense. Remember what I said!"
The weather today is not very good.
Ruan Yihan went out with an umbrella and saw Ali who was waiting there. She was not polite at all and poked her butt with the tip of the umbrella.
Ah Li moved a little, holding his hips: "What are you doing, Mr. Ruan?"
Ruan Yihan said coldly: "Did you tell grandma that I have a hidden illness?"
Ali: … …
She didn't.
She is so innocent.
The old lady had to induce her to say that.
"There is no bonus for this quarter." President Ruan was merciless. She didn't sleep well last night and had no energy. She even dozed off in the car.
There is still a lot of work in the morning.
When she arrived at the office, she went to the cubicle to catch up on her sleep.
Jiang Zhenyue was tidying up the table for her. She was very smart and adapted quickly. Although she was a young lady and had never served anyone before, in just a few days she was able to handle basically everything that Mr. Ruan did. Although she was not very skilled, others could not find any fault with her.
Before Ali was about to leave, he casually said, "By the way, Miss Jiang, Ms. Ruan must go home at 8 o'clock tonight. Don't forget to remind her."
Su Zhenyue put the documents in her hand in order, nodded, and asked casually: "Well, is it a family gathering?"
Ali looked into the bedroom and said mysteriously, "No, it's a blind date."
Jiang Zhenyue's hands trembled, "What?"
Alit lowered his voice and gossiped, "I heard that she is a lady from a wealthy family, very beautiful, and chosen by the old lady herself."
She didn't dare stay any longer, for fear that Mr. Ruan would wake up and see her getting angry again, so she left quickly.
She is gone.
Leaving behind a sentence, disturbed Jiang Zhenyue's heart.
She was absent-minded the whole morning. At noon, when she was making coffee for Ruan Yihan, her hands shook and she burned herself. She couldn't help but let out a "hiss".
Ruan Yihan put down the pen in her hand, walked over, grabbed Jiang Zhenyue's hand and looked at her: "What's wrong with you, Yueyue, are you too tired? Why are you so absent-minded all morning?"
She was very fair, and her delicate skin turned red immediately after being heated.
Ruan Yihan blew on it and said, "Wait a minute, I'll get you some ointment."
Jiang Zhenyue looked into her eyes and wanted to ask a question.
—Is it true? Ah Han, are you really going to meet another woman for a blind date
Jiang Zhenyue is a fearless person. From childhood to adulthood, she has never let herself be depressed and speaks her mind. The only thing she is cautious about is her feelings for Ruan Yihan.
After all, it’s the fear of losing.
Ruan Yihan pulled Jiang Zhenyue to sit on the sofa and applied ointment to her. The cool ointment was pushed on the back of her hand. Jiang Zhenyue looked at Ruan Yihan in a daze.
Ruan Yihan's attention was focused on the back of her hand: "Are you tired and uncomfortable? It's hard for you. I see you've been working overtime these past few nights."
Jiang Zhenyue looked at her with her head down and serious expression, her eyes became moist.
Ruan Yihan talked for a long time but didn't hear Jiang Zhenyue's response. She looked up and looked at her puzzledly, and immediately looked into those red eyes.
Her heart suddenly tightened, and Ruan Yihan looked at her nervously: "What's wrong? Did someone bully you?"
Jiang Zhenyue shook her head and looked at Ruan Yihan. "Oh. Besides you, who else can bully me?"
"Forget it, Miss, how dare I." Ruan Yihan felt relieved, knowing that she was under too much pressure. She reached out to unbutton her clothes: "It's already this late, let's go out for a walk and get some fresh air."
Yueyue shouldn't have to bear her pain alone.
If she hadn't wanted Yueyue to come back, she would probably be now with a car and a drawing board, traveling around the world freely and living a comfortable life like a fairy on earth.
It was already late and she had to go home after going out with Yueyue. Ruan Yihan thought about changing into a casual and loose sportswear and tied her hair up, looking refreshed.
Jiang Zhenyue looked at her, and smiled when she saw her smiling eyes. This was Ahan, her Ahan.
She tilted her head and looked at the Buddhist beads on Ruan Yihan's wrist, "What is this?"
Ruan Yihan hid it in her sleeves to cover up: "I just asked for it casually."
She is a kind person by nature. She has been protected by her grandmother since she was a child and has never done anything against her conscience.
But now, torn by hatred, she stepped into the abyss step by step and could never go back.
Her soul became dirty, and even she no longer approved of it. She thought that one day, she would be punished by God.
The two of them walked out of the company side by side, which naturally attracted a lot of attention. When Jiang Zhenyue was parachuted into the position of assistant to the president, it had already caused rumors to spread everywhere. Now seeing the two of them walking together so intimately, the people below were even more talking about it.
When they were going downstairs, Ali came over and handed over a small box in his hand: "This is what the old lady gave to you, Mr. Ruan."
Ruan Yihan took it and opened it to have a look. Wow, that dazzling sapphire! It seemed that grandma had spent a lot of money this time. She curled the corners of her lips and casually put it in her pocket.
Jiang Zhenyue looked at her and her eyes moved.
Ruan Yihan hadn't been so relaxed for a long time. She took a deep breath and got rid of all her tiredness.
There is a large green park behind the Ruan Group, and the two of them walked there unknowingly.
Perhaps it was because she had been living a life of extravagance and decadence recently. After just a few steps, Ruan Yihan felt tired. She walked to a patch of grass and sat down. "Yueyue, do you remember when we were little? We ran races here."
"Of course I remember."
Jiang Zhenyue was all smiles when she talked about the past. At that time, she grew faster than Ruan Yihan, so her legs were longer. Every time the two of them ran, she would always be much longer than Ruan Yihan, and she would deliberately stand behind her and stick out her tongue at her: "Hey, little carrot legs, come on."
Ruan Yihan would always get so angry that she would cry like a big clown. She loved beauty the most and hated people saying that she had skinny legs, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't catch Jiang Zhenyue.
Ruan Yihan thought about the past, put her hands behind her back, and looked at the blue sky: "It would be great if I could go back."
go back…
Jiang Zhenyue lay down with her and looked at the sky.
The two of them lay like this for a while, looking at each other for a long time.
It's a very comfortable feeling, no need for too many words, we are the most relaxed being around each other.
After a while, Jiang Zhenyue sniffed the mint scent coming from Ruan Yihan, her heart beating fast, "Ah Han, tonight, you have to-"
She was halfway through her sentence when she turned around and saw that Ruan Yihan had fallen asleep without her knowing, with a smile on her lips.
The heart-pounding moment.
Jiang Zhenyue turned her body to the side, propped up one arm and looked at Ruan Yihan. Her face began to feel hot and she couldn't control herself. She looked at those red lips, getting closer and closer, until she could feel her even and steady breathing on her cheek.
At this moment, a pair of slender legs came into view from the opposite side, and someone was blocking her way.
