They were all attentively admiring Boss Yan’s grace.
Only two people weren’t.
The other was Bao Ziqi.
Mu Jiu was openly staring at Su Ruanruan’s face, completely indifferent to the stage performance.
Bao Ziqi’s peripheral vision remained fixed on Su Ruanruan.
He thought to himself: She can be so close to Mu Jiu, yet she avoids me at all costs!
What kind of logic is that?
He was angry in his heart and had no desire to talk to her much.
The play was halfway through.
Su Ruanruan whispered to Mrs. Gu, "Mom, I’m going to the restroom."
Gu Jiarou immediately stood up, "I’ll accompany Ruanruan."
But Mrs. Gu said, "Jiarou, you sit down and enjoy the play."
Gu Jiarou scratched her head, puzzled.
Mrs. Gu did not explain.
Su Ruanruan stood up and gracefully made her way to the restroom.
She had only walked a little when Mu Jiu followed her.
He didn’t avoid it at all!
Bao Ziqi clenched his fingers.
At a desolate corner.
Su Ruanruan stood there quietly.
Mu Jiu, seeing her, slowed his steps.
When he approached, Su Ruanruan smiled lightly, "Brother Jiu."
Mu Jiu looked down at her and asked softly, "Brother Jiu, is there still a chance?"
Worried she might misunderstand, he explained: "I’m not an old fuddy-duddy! I just think if you haven’t decided to be with Bao Jingyan, then you haven’t thought it through."
Then he, might still have a chance.
Su Ruanruan spoke softly to him, "Brother Jiu, I’ve thought it through."
Mu Jiu felt a pang of pain in his heart.
But as if indifferent, he said, "Brother Jiu can try to wait a bit longer."
But Su Ruanruan had other thoughts.
Mu Jiu was already thirty; she couldn’t hold him back.
Su Ruanruan gently said, "I want to take care of Mother Mu together with Brother Jiu."
Mu Jiu felt a wave of disappointment.
But his feelings for Su Ruanruan were more than just romantic; he didn’t want her to feel sad, so he changed the topic, "Weren’t you going to the restroom? Brother Jiu will wait here for you."
He touched his chin, murmuring to himself, "There are so many perverts nowadays! And you look so beautiful."
Showing her small teeth.
Mu Jiu couldn’t help but touch her hair, saying, "Bao Jingyan is indeed lucky."
After saying that, he waved his hand in a disgusted manner!
Su Ruanruan visited the restroom and returned, walking shoulder to shoulder with Mu Jiu.
As they lifted the curtain, Mrs. Gu glanced at them.
At the Bao Family’s side, Bao Jingyuan whispered to Bao Ziqi, "Su Ruanruan really has some skill, completely enchanting Mu Jiu."
Bao Ziqi stuffed an apple into her mouth.
As the play was about to end.
Bao Mingyuan arrived.
Mrs. Bao was both shocked and delighted.
"Mingyuan," she called his name cheerfully.
Bao Mingyuan, with a special status, naturally prompted several juniors present to stand and greet him.
Even Mu Jiu greeted him.
Bao Mingyuan glanced around, his eyes finally resting on Su Ruanruan’s face.
He was very gentle, "Ruanruan is here too! This morning, grandma was still talking about you visiting."
Su Ruanruan responded, "I’ll visit grandma tomorrow."
Bao Mingyuan smiled faintly and said no more.
At this moment, the theater manager approached.
He said, "Boss Yan heard distinguished guests have arrived, please wait a moment! Boss Yan will come to reminisce after changing."
Bao Jingyuan immediately said, "He must know dad has come, wanting to network."
Mrs. Bao hastily said, "Boss Yan is a significant figure! Very noble, Jingyuan, don’t say such things from now on."
But in her heart, she also thought the same.
Her husband was the wealthiest man in the city.
It was only normal for Boss Yan to lower his status.
They bantered like that,
And the theater manager just smiled slightly.
He said to Mrs. Gu’s group, "Mrs. Gu, please have a seat as well."
Mrs. Gu, gently fanning herself, spoke appropriately, "I have always wanted to meet Boss Yan but never got the opportunity."
"Flattery, madam," the manager bowed.
Before leaving, his gaze fell on Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan smiled and nodded.
Mu Jiu said, "So corny! Luckily you didn’t end up with me, or I would feel suffocated every day."
Inside the box, it suddenly became quiet as the graveyard!
About ten minutes later, light footsteps could be heard outside.
Boss Yan lifted the curtain and entered.
He was dressed in a dark long gown, with a slicked-back hairstyle.
Thin but very good-looking.
Mrs. Bao put on a reserved expression.
Even Bao Mingyuan prepared to be attended to by an artist.
But to their surprise, Boss Yan immediately addressed Su Ruanruan upon entering, "Ruanruan, do you still remember uncle?"
