Su Ruanruan stepped aside to make space.
She was still very gentle: "Talk to uncle and auntie; they’re all very worried about you."
Naturally, Mingyuan and his wife stepped forward, concerned about their son.
Su Ruanruan retreated to the edge of the hospital room.
Bao Jingyan had arrived at some point.
With a sweep of his arm, she was whisked away.
Bao Ziqi watched silently.
In that moment, he was willing to give anything to trade places with Bao Jingyan...
Su Ruanruan was brought to an empty VIP hospital room.
Bao Jingyan kicked the door shut.
Su Ruanruan was pressed against the door panel by him.
One hand of his protected her back, the other was grasping her chin.
He leaned down and kissed her eagerly.
He had never been so rough before.
Su Ruanruan was shy, yet she put up no resistance.
She willingly let him take firm control, letting herself be at his mercy.
After who knew how long, Bao Jingyan let go of her.
He gazed at her flushed face and asked hoarsely, "Why so obedient?"
"Because you’re jealous," Su Ruanruan’s voice trembled.
She was still feeling dazed and simply leaned her head against his chest.
Her hand slid down to find his, their fingers entwining tightly.
"Bao Ziqi won’t misunderstand," she pleaded softly, "Stop making a fuss, okay?"
Bao Ziqi has confessed countless times, and she has refused every time.
She was certain he wouldn’t misunderstand.
Bao Jingyan knew it too.
But still, he felt jealous, "Sounds like you two have some little secrets."
Su Ruanruan nuzzled his chin in a pleasing manner.
And then she promised softly in whispers.
Bao Jingyan’s body shuddered.
His elegantly boned fingers gently caressed her red lips, his voice was hoarse beyond recognition, "Really?"
Su Ruanruan turned her face away with reserve.
A faint blush spread from her ears...
Bao Jingyan made a new demand.
He whispered, "Go to Bao Mansion."
He coaxed her by her ear, "Just now you said you’d listen to me in everything."
But how could she resist him?
So in broad daylight, Bao Jingyan took her back to the Bao family’s old mansion.
The moment they got out of the car, he pulled Su Ruanruan up to his bedroom on the third floor.
The old lady was at the hospital visiting her second grandson.
In the blink of an eye, she saw her eldest grandson pulling the young girl upstairs.
The old lady rubbed her eyes.
She asked Gui Zhi, "Was that Jingyan and Ruanruan just now?"
The old lady then asked, "What’s he taking Ruanruan to his room for? Play mahjong?"
Gui Zhi chuckled nervously, "Ziqi has woken up, aren’t you eager to see him?"
The old lady shrewdly said, "Ziqi almost lost his life; I’m afraid Jingyan is in such a rush that he might cause another life to come into being."
But the old lady also added, "It might be good if a life comes of it! Just might be able to celebrate all in one go."
Gui Zhi helped her into the car.
While doing so, she probed, "Did you notice it a while ago?"
The old lady gave a cool smile, "I saw it the day we played mahjong; Jingyan really thinks people are fools!"
Gui Zhi then laughed, "Nothing gets past you, old madam!"
The old lady said, "I don’t know anything!"
Everyone from the Bao Mansion had gone to the hospital.
In the mansion, only Bao Jingyan and Su Ruanruan were left as the masters.
The servants, more or less, knew.
But it was an unspoken understanding.
It was Su Ruanruan’s first time doing anything in Bao Jingyan’s bedroom.
Shy, yet there was a flavor that was unlike the usual.
Bao Jingyan went downstairs once.
He wore a white bathrobe, his tall figure both athletic and attractive.
He brought up dinner for two.
As he pushed open the door, a sweet fragrance wafted from the bedroom.
The bed sheets had been changed.
Su Ruanruan was nowhere to be seen, only the sound of water flowing from the bathroom could be heard.
