Chapter 231 Sister-in-law, open the door. I am his brother (30)
After Xie Jinyi’s divorce caused a sensation in the upper class circles, the news of the Lu family’s second son’s divorce also caused a big splash.
The only difference is that the former is thinking about Mrs. Xie's position, while the latter is thinking about "Mrs. Xie" herself.
Anyone who attended that wedding would have been attracted by Ruan Guannan’s otherworldly beauty.
If it weren't for the Lu family's status in Beijing, the door of the Ruan family's old house would have been broken down long ago.
But before they could give up with regret, Miss Ruan became single again at the speed of light!
Many wealthy young men in Beijing were secretly observing the situation, and at the same time, their impression of Lu Chi as a "real man" was further deepened.
So when Ruan Guannan had only lived in the old house for a few days, Uncle Zhang discovered a lot of young "passers-by" who were hanging around in front of his house for no reason.
Some even had the nerve to go in and pay a visit, but none of them met Ruan Guannan himself.
When Xie Jinyi got the news, his face turned dark.
He had finally waited for her to get divorced, so how could he allow so many "Cheng Yaojins" to interfere?
As a result, many companies that have cooperated with Xie's have recently started to have trouble with business. When problems arise in the company, these rich kids naturally have no time to think about it. They are dragged by their elders to stay in the company, and are so busy that they are dizzy.
Xie Jinyi dealt with those people with restless minds in a swift and decisive manner. By the time he had time to go find people himself, Ruan Guannan had already returned to his hometown in Jiangnan to seek comfort from his parents.
After knowing what Lu Chi had done, Mr. and Mrs. Ruan no longer had any good feelings towards him and were very relieved that their daughter was able to get out of that pit so clearly.
So, Ruan Guannan stayed at home peacefully, immersed in the loss of divorce, and continued to be the apple of his parents' eyes.
After she had been staying at home for almost a month, the "uninvited guest" finally couldn't wait any longer and came to her door.
That day, when Mr. and Mrs. Ruan returned home, there was another person around.
Aunt Chen came to the door of Ruan Guannan's studio and said mysteriously:
"Miss, one of Mr.'s clients is visiting our home today, and Mr. wants you to go down and say hello."
Ruan Guannan felt a little strange, so he changed his clothes and went downstairs.
When he saw the person sitting elegantly and behaving steadily on the sofa, Ruan Guannan's heart started beating faster.
Looking at the person she hadn't seen for a while, she was a little dazed for a moment, but the heartbeat he brought to her that day was still deeply imprinted in her heart, making her subconsciously feel a little uncomfortable when facing Xie Jinyi.
Under Xie Jinyi's smiling, hidden gaze, Ruan Guannan slowly walked over to sit down opposite him.
Xie Jinyi looked at her with heavy eyes and saw that she had lost a lot of weight and her face was visibly haggard. It was obvious that she was not in a very good mood.
Father Ruan happily introduced it to his daughter.
"Guan Nan, this is Mr. Xie from Beijing. He just cooperated with our company on a big project today. Come and say hello."
Then he turned around and introduced Xie Jinyi.
"Mr. Xie, this is my daughter Guannan."
Before Ruan Guannan could say hello, Xie Jinyi spoke first.
"Uncle, I am a junior, you can just call me Jinyi."
After saying that, he turned to look at Ruan Guannan, paused for a moment, and then continued with a smile:
"Miss Ruan, long time no see."
Father Ruan was a little surprised, "You knew each other before?"
Ruan Guannan's heart skipped a beat. Under Xie Jinyi's deep gaze, she nodded gently.
"Yes, Mr. Xie has helped me a lot before."
Father Ruan nodded in understanding, and without thinking too much, he warmly invited Xie Jinyi to the restaurant to have dinner together.
*
Xie Jinyi seemed to have settled down in the Jiangnan area during this period. Whenever Ruan Guannan went out, he would always meet him by chance.
That day, Xie Jinyi finally couldn't help but ask her out for coffee. Ruan Guannan was somewhat tempted, so she dressed up carefully and went to the appointment.
As he walked into the coffee shop, Ruan Guannan saw him at a glance.
She was tall, graceful, and elegant. Her already outstanding appearance, coupled with the calm temperament of someone who had been in a high position for a long time, undoubtedly attracted the attention of most people in the cafe.
When Ruan Guannan sat down opposite her, the burning gazes on him lessened a little.
It’s not that they have no ideas, but the two of them sitting together alone look extremely compatible.
One is gentle, the other is tough, and their auras seem to be very compatible.
Both of them were used to being stared at by others, so they didn't take it to heart.
Xie Jinyi's eyes had never left her since she entered his sight. When he saw her adjusting her hair uncomfortably, he looked away reluctantly and said softly:
"I ordered you something you like to drink, would you like to try it?"
Ruan Guannan nodded, raised her hand to hold the warm coffee cup, lowered her head and took a sip. She felt the satisfying taste and her mood relaxed a little.
Xie Jinyi's gaze fell on her hand holding the cup, which was slender, soft and boneless.
His gaze stayed on her for a long time. When she looked up, he lowered his head and took a sip of coffee, suppressing the chaotic and restless emotions in his heart.
Ruan Guannan thought about it, then looked up at him and asked:
"Xie...Jinyi, has your Xie's business expanded here?"
Under his deep gaze, Ruan Guannan tactfully changed his address.
Xie Jinyi's heart couldn't help but beat rapidly. She might not know that every time he heard his name from her mouth, he had an urge to kiss her, and kiss her so hard that she could only call him alone in a delicate voice.
Xie Jinyi suppressed the impulse in his heart and said casually:
"No, there's just a project that's going to be implemented here, so I came to investigate."
Ruan Guannan didn't know much about business, so he didn't ask much.
"How about you, how are you doing lately?"
Ruan Guannan was stunned by the question and nodded slightly.
"pretty good."
Although she tried to hide it quickly, Xie Jinyi still caught a glimpse of sadness in her eyes. It seemed that the divorce was a huge blow to her.
But even so, she remained gentle and decent, without showing any frustration.
Xie Jinyi felt that she should be depressed, after all, Lu Chi left a deep impression in her heart.
But he couldn't help but feel love and pity for her. He wanted to hold her in his arms, comfort her, and shield her from all the storms from the outside world.
This thought had been hidden in his heart when he saw her for the first time, and it was not until now that he could not help but reveal it a little.
He drove her home safely, and when they reached the door, Xie Jinyi got out of the car with her.
His eyes lingered on her for a long time. When she turned around to say goodbye to him, Xie Jinyi regained his composure and said goodbye to her with a smile.
Ruan Guannan walked into the house without noticing that the gaze of the man behind her was so deep and burning.
Xie Jinyi returned to the car but did not drive away immediately. He lit a cigarette to relieve his surging desire to possess the person.
He had great self-control and quickly regained his composure.
I told myself not to be impulsive and to give her some time to get over her previous relationship. Pushing her too hard would only backfire.
Just like the failed confession before, he exposed his feelings so early. If he hadn't retreated to advance, he would have lost the chance to get close to her now.
Xie Jinyi pondered for a long time, sorting out his progress step by step, and he must not give her the opportunity to alienate himself.
It can be seen that it is unknown how long the gentle and simple Ruan Guannan can last against such a cunning fox?
……
Starting a new journey, Sister Ruan and Mr. Xie staged a love story between adults!
That’s all for today, good night, babies.
