Chapter 223 Sister-in-law, open the door. I am his brother (22)
【Host……】
Ruan Guannan found it a little funny to see it being so shy, [If you have something to say, just say it, don't do this. ]
999 curled his lips and asked in confusion: [I don’t quite understand, host, don’t you want to be with Xie Jinyi? ]
Ruan Guannan slowly put a mask on his face and took the time to reply:
[Not yet.]
[What does that mean?] 999 felt that his tiny brain was about to be worn out, and he could no longer understand the host's operation.
Ruan Guannan sighed and lovingly stroked its little head from a distance.
[First of all, as a relatively conservative lady, and someone who "likes" her husband, it is impossible for me to follow Xie Jinyi as soon as I am seduced. This would make my "like" seem meaningless.]
[Secondly, as a favored child who is admired by so many people, Xie Jinyi has probably never been rejected by anyone. If I don't let him experience setbacks and he agrees as expected, he might think that I am under his control, which would be too cheap.]
【Finally, if we want to be together, there are still too many barriers between us. Not only him, but also I will suffer criticism. I want him to try his best to work hard for our future, so that he will feel that it is not easy to come by. I want him to remember it forever and block all the storms for me! 】
After listening to the host's words, 999's face was blank, and even its bright eyes had lost their luster.
[Is this... so complicated? ]
[Hmm, add some obstacles manually. Don't you think it's exciting to pull like this? If you don't enjoy it now, how can you have another chance in the future? ]
999 was speechless. [This is your ultimate goal, host...]
[Oh, what I said before is also very important. ]
999 pouted and said sarcastically: [Host, if you do this, aren't you afraid that Xie Jinyi will really give up? ]
Ruan Guannan paused, the smile in his eyes deepened, and he said mysteriously:
[Then I will seduce her back again...]
999's small body couldn't help but shiver, and he once again mourned for the male protagonist in his heart.
If you meet a host like me and want to win the beauty, being played badly is your destiny.
The people on Ruan Guannan's side were harmonious, peaceful and calm, but in another villa not far away the atmosphere was heavy and depressing.
Xie Jinyi walked in with a sullen face, and didn't bother to ask about Lin Pianpian who had been staying out all night recently, and went straight back to his room.
He stood on the balcony, looking at the brightly lit room over there, a bitter smile on his thin lips.
Although I had made up my mind to make a decision after careful consideration and would not give up just because of her rejection, I still suffered a great blow in my heart.
As for the one or two reasons she mentioned, in his opinion, they were completely solvable problems, and he never thought that they were obstacles that would stand in their way.
Only Ruan Guannan's attitude is the most important, and now it is also the most fatal.
Thinking back to how well-behaved she was in front of Lu Chi and her sad eyes for him, Xie Jinyi felt both distressed and angry.
She felt sad that her sincerity was trampled upon and betrayed, and she was angry that Lu Chi had it but did not cherish it.
Thinking of this, Xie Jinyi felt a little anxious and irritated.
He stood in the darkness, and only the scarlet spot on his fingertips made his presence known.
Soon, countless cigarette butts fell to the ground, but they could not relieve his obscure and complicated emotions.
Xie Jinyi exhaled deeply, looked at the lights in the distance, and whispered her name a few times. His depressed mood also improved a little, but the determination in his eyes became stronger and stronger...

Since returning from vacation, Lu Chi has gone back to his and Ruan Guannan's new home almost every day, and it has become a habit for him to go home after get off work.
But he was used to going home early, and Ruan Guannan's gallery began to get busy again.
When he got off work, Ruan Guannan hadn't come back yet. When he left for work the next day, Ruan Guannan hadn't gotten up yet.
If Lu Chi hadn't deliberately sat in the lobby waiting at night, the two of them would miraculously not have met.
When Ruan Guannan opened the door and came in, she saw Lu Chi leaning lazily on the sofa, staring at her without blinking, with a rather unhappy look on his face.
Ruan Guannan paused, smiled and asked:
"It's so late, why haven't you rested yet? Do you have anything to say to me?"
Her voice was still gentle, as if she had no temper, but to Lu Chi, he always felt that she was angry with him.
"Don't you know it's unsafe to come back so late every day? Is your small gallery busier than my company?"
Lu Chi's tone was not very good. The look he gave Ruan Guannan was oppressive and domineering, and the accusation in his voice was not concealed at all.
Ruan Guannan's eyes dimmed, and the smile on his face fell. His jade-like face showed unspeakable loss and sadness, and his eyes could not help but turn red.
"Yes, my gallery is not as big as your company, but it is also my hobby and hard work. Why do you look down on it?"
Lu Chi was startled by her look like she was about to cry, and he didn't even care about her rare strong rebuttal to his words.
Then he threw the tissue over impatiently.
"When did I look down on you? Don't confuse right and wrong. I just asked you casually because I saw that you were a woman and it was unsafe outside at night. You can't tell the difference between good and bad words."
Ruan Guannan blinked a few times to dispel the mist, looked up at his awkward and concerned look, and said in a rare and embarrassed voice:
"I was just too excited."
Lu Chi snorted, and when the atmosphere eased, it became a rare peaceful and warm one. Lu Chi subconsciously asked,
"Are you free the day after tomorrow?"
Ruan Guannan thought about it carefully, and his eyes suddenly lit up as if he remembered something.
"Yes, you..."
Seeing her happy expression, Lu Chi softened his tone a little and said softly:
"I'll take you out for dinner the day after tomorrow."
Then he emphasized, "It's just a meal, not a date, don't think too much about it."
As for why I think too much, it’s because the day after tomorrow is Chinese Valentine’s Day, which is also Ruan Guannan’s birthday…
Even so, Ruan Guannan still nodded happily.
"Yeah, I won't think too much about it."
Lu Chi was choked again, but seeing how happy she was, an unconscious smile appeared on his face.

On the day of Chinese Valentine's Day, Ruan Guannan closed the gallery early and went home to wait for Lu Chi to get off work and pick him up to celebrate his birthday.
Because she was in a good mood, she changed her dressing style today and chose a red slim long skirt.
The skirt has a square neck, revealing a delicate collarbone and a slender and beautiful neck.
The waist at the back is exposed, bound with a black belt and tied with an exquisite bow at the back, which makes the waist look even slimmer and more eye-catching.
The hem of her skirt was slightly fluffy, and she looked like a flowing rose when she walked, adding a layer of bright charm to her originally gentle and graceful temperament, making her even more alluring and captivating.
She also carefully styled her hairstyle and put on exquisite makeup, making her already beautiful and eye-catching appearance even more profound and three-dimensional.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Ruan Guannan was very satisfied.
When Lu Chi saw her staring blankly, Ruan Guannan was even more satisfied, but he could not hide his shyness and helplessness on his face.
"What...what happened? Doesn't it look good?"
Lu Chi came back to his senses when he heard her voice. He raised his hand to cover up his gaffe and praised her dryly.
"It looks nice, let's go."
……
Sister Ruan is ready to control the man, and Brother Xie wants to win the beauty. This is what you deserve.
That's all for today. Good night, babies.
