Chapter 36

Ruan Qiuping felt dizzy from the kiss and his mind started to wander.

She suddenly realized that Yu Huan's kiss was much gentler and slower than in previous years, and not as intense and suffocating.

But Ruan Qiuping felt that this kind of kiss was the most terrifying, like a sweet top note of wine, which was most likely to make people drunk.

Even though he was thinking this, Ruan Qiuping's hands still involuntarily wrapped around Yu Huan's neck.

Yu Huan paused for a moment, and then the kiss became passionate again, mixed with some joy of finally getting a response.

After the long and affectionate kiss, Yu Huan touched Ruan Qiuping's wet hair and asked, "Ruan Ruan, why is it wet? Is it raining?"

Ruan Qiuping wanted to tell Yu Huan that it was his clothes that got wet in the pond, but if he told the truth, he would have to explain why he jumped into the pond. So Ruan Qiuping nodded slightly and used the excuse that he got wet because of the rain.

"Those mud spots on the body..."

"I fell accidentally, but it's okay. I'm not hurt at all." Ruan Qiuping said as he stretched out his hand to pull at his clothes.

Yu Huan's eyes suddenly moved to her hand again, and his expression darkened: "... Did you also fall on your hand?"

Ruan Qiuping remembered that there were several hideous wounds on his palms, and hurriedly put his hands behind his back and said, "Ah, these injuries were also caused when I fell. I... I fell and tried to grab something, but I accidentally pulled a thorny vine..."

This reason was really far-fetched. Yu Huan's dark eyes made Ruan Qiuping's heart beat fast. Fortunately, Yu Huan quickly looked away and did not ask any more questions.

Yu Huan walked to the desk and pressed the call button: "Bring me a first aid kit."

"The first aid kit is a little small." Ruan Qiuping looked down at the wound on his hand, "It's not a serious injury."

Yu Huan opened his hand, looked at the scar on his palm, and said, "If a human were to suffer such an injury, they would at least need stitches."

"Knock knock knock..." There was a sudden knock on the door.

It should be the secretary who delivered the first aid kit.

Ruan Qiuping looked at the door and asked Yu Huan, "Should I hide for a while?"

"No need." Yu Huan pressed Ruan Qiuping's shoulder, asked him to sit down on the chair in front of the desk, and said, "You don't need to hide from anyone."

The knocking continued, but the rhythm became faster, as if the person knocking was very anxious.

Yu Huan looked up at the office door, frowned slightly, and said, "Come in."

As soon as Yu Huan finished speaking, a girl holding a first aid kit pushed the door open in a panic, "Boss Yu, I heard you wanted a first aid kit. Are you injured somewhere? Is it serious? How about I ask Doctor Lin to come..."

Before the girl finished speaking, she saw Ruan Qiuping sitting at the desk, and her voice stopped for a moment.

Who is this man who is in his early teens and is soaking wet

He actually sat in Mr. Yu's office chair and played with the ornaments on the table, leaving Mr. Yu standing aside.

"Haven't you completed your resignation procedures yet?" Yu Huan's voice was a little cold.

The girl gritted her teeth and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Mr. Yu, I don't understand why you want to fire me. I don't think I did anything wrong. I'm just expressing my true feelings to you..."

Ruan Qiuping suddenly felt that he smelled an unusual scent. He immediately put down the sundries in his hands and looked at Yu Huan's secretary with interest.

The girl paused, and almost trembled as she said loudly, "If...if you insist on firing me, can you tell me why?!"

"Then I'll tell you why."

Yu Huan's face remained calm, and his voice was also very cold. He continued, "You confessed to me even though you knew I was married, which was bad conduct. You attached an unintentional confession note when submitting a report, which was sloppy work. You replaced the decorative flowers in the conference room with roses without authorization, causing your partners to be allergic to pollen, which was a work error. You are an intern secretary who has bad conduct, sloppy work, and ultimately caused economic losses to the company. Why can't I fire you?"

The girl's face turned pale and blue.

Yu Huan lowered his head and dialed a number: "Human Resources Department, help me confirm the progress of Zhao Jingjin's resignation."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Huan looked up at the girl and said, "I heard that your resignation procedures have been completed."

The girl's lips trembled and tears were about to fall. She turned around and was about to leave in a panic.

"Put down the first aid kit." Yu Huan reminded her.

She put down the first aid kit in her hand, turned around, and trembled all over: "But...but you are not married, right? Although you always advertise that you are married and always wear a wedding ring, we have never met your partner, and I asked my friend to check, and your marital status is not..."

"I'm married." Yu Huan interrupted her.

"I'll testify." Ruan Qiuping raised his hand and said cheerfully, "I also attended the wedding."

The girl looked at the wedding ring on Ruan Qiuping's hand that was the same style as Yu Huan's, and seemed to understand something. Her face turned pale and her whole body froze.

After the girl left, Ruan Qiuping held out his hand and asked Yu Huan to bandage his wound. He glanced at the direction the girl left and couldn't help but sighed, "It's great to be young. Did that girl just graduate?"

Yu Huan: "Why is Ruan Ruan asking this?"

"Nothing, I just think that girl is reckless and brave. Although her method is a bit problematic, her personality is still quite suitable for her age."

Yu Huan paused for a moment and asked, "Does Ruan Ruan like her personality?"

Ruan Qiuping thought for a moment and said, "Not really. I just think people of this age are pretty good. People in the Heavenly Palace are often hundreds or thousands of years old. There are very few people like her who act impulsively and without considering the consequences."

Yu Huan lowered his eyes and said, "I thought Ruan Ruan would be jealous, but it seems I was worrying too much.

The next moment, Yu Huan tightly wrapped the gauze in his hand.

After finishing the last step of bandaging, Yu Huan stroked Ruan Qiuping's fingerless wedding ring with his fingertips and asked in a deep voice, "Why are you wearing it again?"

Yu Huan saw clearly just now that Ruan Qiuping's fingers were originally clean, without anything on them. But when he heard the girl mention the word "wedding ring", Ruan Qiuping seemed to suddenly remember something and quickly took out the wedding ring from his Qiankun bag and put it on.

Ruan Qiuping glanced at the ring in his hand.

The rings of ‌ and ‌ Yu Huan were custom-made on the same day, and they were worn on each other's hands on the same day. However, the ring on Yu Huan's hand had been worn for many years, and the edges had been worn to a smooth and shiny state, and there was still a deep ring mark on the finger.

In contrast, Ruan Qiuping's fingers were clean without any marks, and the ring was so shiny that it looked like it had just been taken out of the counter.

"I was going to wear it anyway," Ruan Qiuping said, "but I took it off yesterday afternoon and forgot to put it on again."

Xia Fushui didn't let me wear it, so I always took off the ring before seeing Xia Fushui. It was inevitable that I would forget it after taking it off and putting it on again.

"If it's inconvenient for Ruan Ruan to wear the ring during the day, then she doesn't need to wear it."

Yu Huan suddenly spoke.

Yu Huanyin's voice was very calm and his tone was gentle, but Ruan Qiuping didn't know why, but he still noticed that Yu Huan seemed a little angry.

Yu Huan never took off the ring on his hand, but he not only took it off every day, but even forgot to put it on again when he went downstairs.

Ruan Qiuping suddenly felt a little guilty.

"It's not inconvenient." Ruan Qiuping whispered, "I won't take it off in the future."

At most, next time I see Xia Fushui, I can just use a little deception.

Yu Huan looked at the ring on Ruan Qiuping's hand and slowly lowered his eyes.

Yu Huan actually understood it very well in his heart.

After all, Ruan Qiuping was engaged, and it must be very inconvenient for her to wear the ring in public.

Yu Huan suddenly remembered that he had just told the former secretary that anyone who confessed his love to someone knowing that the other person was married was immoral.

But how upright can one's conduct be

Although he knew that Ruan Qiuping was engaged, he still proposed to Ruan Qiuping first.

Although she knew that Ruan Qiuping would marry that man after her death, she pretended to be indifferent and immersed herself in the dream of being together for the rest of their lives.

And when he did all this, he even knew clearly that Ruan Qiuping did not love him.

He just took advantage of Ruan Qiuping’s guilt and ignorance to kidnap her.

Pushing open the wooden sliding door at the innermost part of the office, you will see a fully furnished lounge with a bathroom, wardrobe, and bed.

When Yu Huan started his business in his early years, the environment was somewhat difficult, and it was common for him to stay in the office day and night. Later, he simply set up a rest area in the office.

Even though the company has grown now and we don't have to work so hard, I still keep this habit.

Yu Huan led Ruan Qiuping inside, then opened the closet, took out a set of casual clothes, and handed them to Ruan Qiuping: "Go and take a quick shower first, then change into clean clothes, and be careful not to touch the wound."

Ruan Qiuping picked up the casual pants and white sweatshirt in his hand and gestured to Yu Huan: "This doesn't seem to be your clothes. The size is wrong."

"It's your size." Yu Huan closed the closet and said, "When I was setting up the closet, I also prepared a few sets of clothes that you can wear. These clothes are very clean, and I change them regularly."

Ruan Qiuping really couldn't understand Yu Huan: "I only come here once a year, and I only come here for a day and a half each time. I don't know where I'll appear... What on earth are you thinking? Why would you put my clothes in the office... and change them regularly?"

Compared to the past few days, he has never come to Yu Huan's office.

I don’t know how many years these things in Yu Huan’s office have been prepared in vain.

Yu Huan looked at her and smiled: "I just make every effort to prepare and wait for you every day."

Ruan Qiuping suddenly felt his heart beating heavily.

It's neither tension nor joy, it just feels heavy, like carrying a pound of stone tied to my body.

When Ruan Qiuping came out of Guanchen Gate, Chen Hai was indeed waiting for him.

After Ruan Qiuping took off the bracelet, he walked towards the classroom.

Chen Hai glanced at her and said sourly, "You must be very happy if you go down for five minutes every day. You have your lover in the world, and your lover is so rich. He will definitely take you to eat whatever you want."

Ruan Qiuping nodded and said, "Indeed, we are going to eat some super-large lobsters this time."

Ruan Qiuping gestured with his two arms: "It's this big, no wonder because every time I go down, you take me to eat delicious food, and now I don't have any other desires for food."

Chen Hai: “…”

Chen Hai gritted his teeth secretly.

"Yes." Ruan Qiuping turned to look at him, "Thank you for what happened today. And... you said you had something to tell me, what was it?"

Chen Hai lowered his head and whispered, "It's still Jingyang's fault. It's all your fault... Ever since we had a fight last time, Jingyang has ignored me."

Ruan Qiuping nodded.

Indeed, the atmosphere between Jingyang and Chenhai has been quite bad these days.

Every time our group came down to earth, we would go find Yu Huan, but we never saw the remaining two people act together.

In fact, Ruan Qiuping could see that Jing Yang was in a bad mood, so he wanted to help them ease their relationship.

Chen Hai said frustratedly: "I have been thinking for so many days, and I feel that Jingyang is angry with me, maybe because I fought with you. I admit that I didn't see anything clearly at the time, and I fought on impulse, but there is no need for him to be angry with me for so long... I think if we don't have conflicts, Jingyang won't be angry with me."

Ruan Qiuping shook his head: "I don't think this is the main problem."

"So what's the main problem?"

Ruan Qiuping recalled the scene of that day and said, "After we fought, Jingyang helped you clean your hair, but since you said you hated homosexuals, Jingyang ignored you, so I reasonably suspected that Jingyang also felt the same way..."

"Fuck you!" Chen Hai jumped up, blushing and saying, "Jing Yang is not a dead homosexual!!!"

Ruan Qiuping: “…”

Ruan Qiuping glanced at him unhappily and said, "There's nothing I can do to help you. Stay away from a gay like me."

Chen Hai struggled all the way, but finally had to agree with Ruan Qiuping's statement.

But the more I thought about it, the more troubled I became. The more irritated I became, and when I became irritated, I couldn’t help eating.

He picked up the Qiankun bag and started to eat the food he had stored. After eating the steamed buns, he ate steamed buns, and after eating the steamed buns, he ate fruit.

The fruits he ate were also very strange, all of which Ruan Qiuping had never seen before. He ate from yellow to green, from green to purple, and from purple to red.

etc!

Ruan Qiuping suddenly stopped and looked at the fruit in his hand: "Chen Hai! What are you eating?!"

Chen Hai handed the red fruit, which had been bitten one-third of the way, to Ruan Qiuping: "What's wrong with this fruit? Is it poisonous?"

The red fruit was brightly colored, pink at the top and white at the bottom, with countless fluorescent dots scattered around. It was the lover's fruit that Ruan Qiuping had been looking for for eight days.

Ruan Qiuping stuttered as he spoke: "Where did you get these fruits? Do you have any more?"

"I just picked them randomly on Duan Qingshan Mountain. They don't seem to be very good. These red fruits are not very tasty. They have no taste at all. I just picked two to fill my stomach. This is the last one. Do you want to eat some too?"

Ruan Qiuping: "Where did you pick it on Duanqing Mountain?"

Chen Hai: "This thing is everywhere, what's so special about it? Especially around the big rock, as soon as your hand touches the rock, a lot of these small fruits will pop up around the rock."

Ruan Qiuping not only bumped into those rocks, but sometimes he was so tired that he even lay down on them. But how come he never saw these love fruits!

Ruan Qiuping looked at Chen Hai excitedly: "Can you take me to pick them? If you can help me pick these fruits, I will definitely help you to get rid of Jing Yang!"

Chen Hai was naturally very satisfied with this deal, and he took Ruan Qiuping to Duan Qingshan as soon as the get out of class was over.

What Chen Hai said was indeed right.

As soon as your hand touches the big rock, countless small red fruits pop out.

But when Ruan Qiuping touched it, there was no reaction.

In order to prevent any accidents from happening to the fruits, Ruan Qiuping picked a few more red fruits and put them into his Qiankun bag.

"So many love fruits!" An old fairy in red clothes came running over happily.

It’s Yue Lao.

While picking these love fruit and putting them in his pocket, he looked at Ruan Qiuping and Chen Hai and smiled: "Which of you found this love fruit?"

Ruan Qiuping pointed and asked in confusion: "Moon Fairy, is there any other way to pick this lover's fruit? Why can't I find it? Can Chen Hai do it?"

The immortal under the moon sighed leisurely.

"The bitter pearl can be found with a bitter heart, and the lover can be found with a loving heart. Since you are heartless, where can you find him?"
