My Groom Ran Away

Chapter 44

Views:

When Ruan Zhiyin woke up in her room on Monday, she was still a little dizzy.

She doesn't drink very well, but yesterday Zhou Hongfei invited some people from the orphanage to his wedding.

It's been a long time since we saw each other, and the atmosphere was very good. Gu Linlang couldn't drink while driving, but Ruan Zhiyin drank quite a few glasses.

It was a little drunk.

Rubbing her temples, Ruan Zhiyin took off her pajamas and walked into the bathroom to take a shower.

When he opened the door and went downstairs, he found that Cheng Yuelin and Cheng Lang were already sitting in the restaurant.

On the table, there is milk, and a simple omelette on toast.

Between one big and one small, the atmosphere was silent.

The man was wearing gray home clothes, sitting there casually, looking down at the financial news on the tablet.

Cheng Lang was opposite Cheng Yuelin, his body was a little tense, and his round black eyeballs kept staring at the plate in front of him.

Seeing Ruan Zhiyin approaching, his eyes lit up, as if he had seen a savior.

Glancing at the fried eggs on the table, Ruan Zhiyin was a little surprised and turned to ask, "Have you made breakfast?"

Cheng Yuelin really didn't have any talent for cooking. Omelette and white porridge were the only meals he could cook.

The man put down the tablet in his hand, looked at her strangely, and then nodded: "Yeah."

Ruan Zhiyin didn't care, rubbed Cheng Lang's head, sat down in her seat, and started breakfast.

However, that slightly threatening gaze was always locked on her.

He was staring at him inexplicably. After a while, Ruan Zhiyin finally raised her head and raised her eyebrows: "Is there something on my face?"

"No." Cheng Yuelin raised his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth raised lightly, "But—"

"Ruan 嘤嘤, have you forgotten something with your nonchalant attitude now?"

The man's voice was deep, with a little accusation.

Ruan Zhiyin looked puzzled and frowned in thought.

The picture after leaving the wedding yesterday was a bit broken, she only remembered that Linlang sent her back to the villa, and then...

It was as if she had walked into the room with her last trance.

After a pause, Ruan Zhiyin met the man's gaze and asked tentatively, "What did I forget?"

Cheng Yuelin leaned on the back of the chair with ease, chuckled lightly, pointed his slender fingers on the screen of the tablet beside him, and reached out to her again.

In a condescending tone: "There is no basis in empty words, so as not to say that I have wronged you, it is better for you to see for yourself."

Ruan Zhiyin took it hesitantly.

On the screen is the surveillance video of the living room.

Cheng Lang was going abroad in a few days, and he told Ruan Zhiyin euphemistically that he did not want to be taken care of by the nanny. Ruan Zhiyin felt that it was his last nanny who made him resist, so she didn't force it.

After all, Cheng Lang would go to school during the day, and he was also picked up by a driver these days.

But occasionally she and Cheng Yuelin came back late, and Cheng Lang would be at home alone. Afraid that something might happen to him, a camera was installed in the living room the day before yesterday.

At this moment, Ruan Zhiyin watched the video from last night, her expression gradually froze on her face.

The impact on the screen was too great, and she was so embarrassed that she couldn't recover for a long time.

Although she knew that she was not good at drinking, Ruan Zhiyin never imagined that she would still use alcohol to commit murder!

Judging from the video, Cheng Yuelin always kept a proper distance from himself.

After Cheng Yuelin was unfairly tortured, seeing that her footsteps were not steady, she kindly helped her into the room.

After seeing what she had done, Ruan Zhiyin bowed her head in annoyance and dared not look into Cheng Yuelin's eyes.

The man silently took her look into his eyes, and chuckled inexplicably: "Why, aren't you going to give me an explanation?"

After he finished speaking, he saw Cheng Lang popping his head out of doubt, glanced at him lightly, and pursed his lips: "Child, go upstairs and play with your toys."

Cheng Lang is most afraid of Cheng Yuelin these days, and he doesn't dare not listen to him now.

So he glanced at Ruan Zhiyin, carefully jumped off the chair, and trotted back to the room.

The restaurant fell silent, only two people left.

After a long silence, Ruan Zhiyin raised her head and tried to explain to the man, "I was drunk last night..."

"so?"

"So... my head is not very clear."

If you are not careful, it will take advantage of you.

Hearing this, the man raised his eyebrows slightly, and his voice was neither salty nor light: "Ruan 嘤嘤, is this your explanation?"

After a pause, Ruan Zhiyin sighed and said sincerely, "Don't worry, I will... try to make up for it."

"The tone is not too small." Cheng Yuelin smiled, "Then tell me what compensation you can give me."

Ruan Zhiyin choked, to be honest, she really didn't know how to make up for Cheng Yuelin's loss. After all, he doesn't seem to lack anything.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Cheng Yuelin raised his eyebrows and said casually, "Why, can't think of it?"

After a while, Ruan Zhiyin raised her eyes to meet his gaze: "What compensation do you want? As long as it is within my ability, I will do my best."

"Oh really."

"En." Ruan Zhiyin nodded slowly.

After a long silence, the man chuckled and spoke with interest: "If that's the case, then... I have to think about it."

Ruan Zhiyin breathed a sigh of relief, and then, she heard the other side's understatement again—

"Ruan 嘤嘤, anyway, it's cheap, you've taken it all. When I make a request, don't think about it..."

"Lai-account."

After the conversation, the atmosphere returned to calm.

For the next few days, both of them tacitly skipped the episode of Ruan Zhiyin's drunkenness.

Even at the beginning, Ruan Zhiyin was still a little embarrassed, but she gradually returned to her normal state in a man's nature.

On Thursday morning, she took a half-day leave and took Cheng Lang to do the rest of the formalities.

While sitting in the hall and waiting, Cheng Lang was in a low mood and never spoke.

After the formalities were completed, Cheng Lang got into the car behind Ruan Zhiyin after walking out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

The fleshy little face was entangled for a long time, and Cheng Lang suddenly asked, "Sister, will you still see me?"

Ruan Zhiyin was slightly startled, and helped him fasten the seat belt of the child seat, and said ambiguously, "If there is a chance."

She always had to consider Cheng Yuelin's attitude, and was reluctant to make promises to her children that she might not be able to keep.

Cheng Lang lowered his head and whispered, "I won't be able to see my mother when I get to my aunt's."

Ruan Zhiyin was silent and nodded lightly.

After the last visit to the prison, Zhao Bing explained to the police the part of the statement related to her husband Fang Shiguo not long after, and also provided a strong evidence.

Although there are still parts that need to be investigated by the police, Fang Shiguo should not be able to avoid prison.

Not long ago, Ruan Zhiyin took Cheng Lang to meet Zhao Bing for the last time, and told her that Cheng Lang was going abroad.

Thinking of this, she looked at Cheng Lang with a smile, and asked softly, "Cheng Lang, do you hate brother?"

During this time, Cheng Yuelin's attitude towards Cheng Lang was by no means gentle, and Cheng Lang dared not say anything in front of Cheng Yuelin, but they were very harmonious in many details.

Sometimes, Ruan Zhiyin couldn't understand the attitude of the two towards each other.

Hearing her words, Cheng Lang frowned, and after a while, he shook his head: "Actually... it's not annoying. I know that my mother did something wrong and was taken away by the police uncle."

"The teacher told me that if people do something wrong, they must be punished."

Ruan Zhiyin smiled and patted his head: "You just understand."

Zhao Bing is still a mother, at least she raised Cheng Lang well, and did not instill resentment against Cheng's father and Cheng Yuelin in front of him.

After closing the car door for Cheng Lang, Ruan Zhiyin just got into the driver's seat when she received a WeChat message from Ye Yanchu.

[Yinyin, where are you now? ]

Ruan Zhiyin typed and replied: I just brought Cheng Lang out after going through the formalities. After sending him back, I went to the company. What happened

[Have you read that long gossip post? ]

[What long post? ]

After a while, Ye Yanchu sent her a link with a title.

[Gather up the inside story of a certain jade hostess's marriage change. 】

Ruan Zhiyin frowned slightly and clicked on the link.

Ten minutes later, I finally finished reading this long post.

I also understood what Ye Yanchu meant.

The protagonist of the post has been decoded, and it is Liu Qiaojing who I met in Youxin's studio not long ago.

Not long ago, the news that Liu Qiaojing and her husband outside the circle had been separated for a year made a hot search. It is said that the man insisted on not getting a divorce and has been dragging it on with various excuses.

In this post, however, it was said that Liu Qiaojing had recently approached a certain CEO, and her resources had improved a lot, which made her ex-husband pressured and had to go through the divorce procedures as soon as possible.

In various descriptions, the person who has a close relationship with Liu Qiaojing seems to be her husband, Cheng Yuelin.

Even the whistleblower revealed Liu Qiaojing's resume, proving that she had read a book in Lanzhong for a year and had known a certain president for a long time.

Ruan Zhiyin was in a trance and was silent for a while before being interrupted by the ringing of the phone.

He frowned before connecting to the unfamiliar phone.

Linheng Building, President's Office.

Cheng Yuelin had just finished the meeting with the people from the M&A department in the conference room downstairs and returned to the top floor by himself.

Looking at the empty desk, he frowned and dialed the internal number.

Two minutes later, Bai Bo knocked on the door and came in.

Cheng Yuelin put the document aside, lifted his eyelids and asked, "How about lunch today?"

Bai Bo coughed lightly and said hesitantly, "Boss, madam... maybe didn't order lunch for you today."

Cheng Yuelin frowned, somewhat surprised.

After thinking about it for a while, she felt that Ruan Zhiyin was too busy with her work to spare her honeymoon vacation, so she forgot to order a meal for him.

Forget it, anyway, Qian Fan will come here with food later, so he won't be hungry after all.

"What, is there something else?"

Cheng Yuelin glanced at Bai Bo with a tangled expression.

Bai Bo nodded slowly: "There is something..."

Halfway through, he handed the phone to Cheng Yuelin.

After taking a glance, Cheng Yuelin's voice was slightly lower: "Who is this woman?"

On the screen, the marketing account actually put together the photos that he had taken secretly when he attended the reception in the past with a strange woman, and even made up a scandal.

Bai Bo paused, and then returned: "This is the host who will interview you later, and the spokesperson for YT's product line not long ago."

Cheng Yuelin took a wedding photo on the grounds of an exclusive interview before, and turned around and asked Bai Bo to take a random interview.

But how could he know what the host who interviewed him looked like later.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yuelin's voice froze: "You just said that she didn't order food?"

Bai Bo knew that the boss wouldn't want to repeat his words, so he didn't dare to speak up.

"So you want to tell me that my innocent reputation was smeared by a scandal for no reason?"

Seeing the boss's face, Bai Bo cautiously said, "I checked, Liu Qiaojing and her husband are separating and getting divorced. Maybe they want to use your name to force the other party to sign the agreement earlier."

"Lend my name? Who gave her the guts?"

"Cough, Miss Liu's original spokesperson was recommended by President Qian. I heard... She and President Qian have been classmates for several years."

Cheng Yuelin almost laughed angrily, closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows, and tapped his slender knuckles on the table: "Go and ask the public relations department to clarify, now."

Bai Bo responded immediately, turned around and prepared to leave.

"etc."

Cheng Yuelin called out to him, and his eyebrows were furious. The next second, Bai Bo heard a chilling voice—

"Where's Qian Fan?"

Ten minutes later, Qian Fan pushed open the door of the president's office with the utmost care.

As soon as he came in, he put on a flattering smile: "Brother Lin, are you looking for me?"

The man handed a cold eye knife.

Qian Fan swallowed his saliva, then cried and said, "I didn't know such a thing would happen. Liu Qiaojing's mother is the head teacher of my junior high school. When YT chose a spokesperson, she was also the most suitable, so I chose her."

"Brother Lin, I was wrong. Don't worry! As soon as I saw the scandal, I rushed to find Zhong Yi and asked for my sister-in-law's mobile phone number, which I explained to her just now."

It's just that Ruan Zhiyin didn't say anything after answering the phone, making Qian Fan uncertain about her attitude.

Cheng Yuelin's face was stern, but at the moment he was holding back his anger, but he didn't know how to vent.

He glanced at Qian Fan, and after seeing the bag in Qian Fan's hand that was obviously not a takeaway, he frowned and said, "What are you talking about?"

"Durian." Qian Fan quickly opened the bag.

"Brother Lin, I just asked an errand to buy it for you. Sometimes, a man's attitude has to be proactive."

"I heard that this is an artifact to calm the daughter-in-law. If the sister-in-law is still angry when you get home, you can put your posture there, maybe she will soften."

Cheng Yuelin heard the words and sneered: "The trouble you caused, how dare you let me kneel on the durian?"

Qian Fan hurriedly begged for mercy and explained, "I'm just making a statement. I'm not afraid that my sister-in-law is still angry."

"Brother Lin, don't stare at me. I'll apply for overtime for the next two months. Don't worry, go on your honeymoon with your sister-in-law."

Cheng Yuelin: "..."

Because she had to take Cheng Lang to go through the formalities during the day, Ruan Zhiyin drove to get off work by herself today.

And the work in the afternoon was too busy, and by the time she drove back to the villa, it was already a little late.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the back of the man leaning on the sofa, who was watching TV boredly.

There is also a children's program on the screen.

Ruan Zhiyin looked around and felt that the living room seemed to have become a lot more tidy.

When he saw her entering the door from the corner of his eye, Cheng Yuelin said casually, "I replaced the broken light bulb in the kitchen."

Ruan Zhiyin nodded lightly: "Yes."

The man paused for a while, and then said, "Just now, I also gave that little boy a bath."

"Ok."

Still a simple answer.

Cheng Yuelin frowned and coughed softly: "You, do you have anything to ask?"

"No." Ruan Zhiyin shook her head.

After a while, she turned her head and pursed her lips and said, "No Cheng Yuelin, I have thought about one thing."

"What is it?"

"It was my fault for doing that kind of thing to you before, don't worry, I won't do it in the future."

I saw his scandal in the daytime, and then received a call from Qian Fan to apologize.

This made Ruan Zhiyin suddenly realize something.

Before she found out that she liked Cheng Yuelin, and even wanted to catch him. But she never thought whether this would cause any burden to the other party.

What if he doesn't like him

Cheng Yuelin frowned when he heard her words: "Then what?"

Then

Ruan Zhiyin lowered her eyes and pondered, and then said: "Well... you said before, we are family, right?"

"Yeah." The man paused and nodded lightly.

As if thinking of something, Ruan Zhiyin suddenly smiled: "Actually, when we were in the orphanage, Linlang and I were older than Zhou Hongfei, and we always regarded him as a younger brother."

Cheng Yuelin pursed his lips unpleasantly, but was a little puzzled: "Ruan 嘤嘤, why did you suddenly mention him?"

"I just think that it might be good for us to continue to be family like this."

Lovers say they can't break up, but family members have a stronger relationship.

Cheng Yuelin's face was slightly dark, his eyes were pressing, and he looked at her with a chuckle: "Family? You mean, it's like you and Zhou Hongfei?"

Aware of his unhappiness, Ruan Zhiyin paused.

After thinking about it, she smiled and reassured: "Of course not."

The man eased his face, and then, he heard her softly adding—

"I know you're half a year older than me, and if you want to be a big brother... that's okay too."
