She deliberately argued: "Why do you still care about him?"
Bao Jingyan let go of her, stood up, and walked towards the changing room.
After a moment, he turned back and gently smiled: "Why do I care, don’t you know?"
Su Ruanruan’s cheeks uncontrollably flushed again.
She also hated herself.
He was domineering, he bullied her.
Yet, she didn’t dislike it that much.
Bao Jingyan went to the dressing room and changed his clothes, and when he came out, he also took her clothes.
They got dirty during the previous chaos, she was so upset that she cried and feared losing face, Bao Jingyan personally washed and dried them for her.
He took the clothes and wanted to help her change, but Su Ruanruan refused.
"Turn around," she said charmingly.
Bao Jingyan’s eyes deepened.
Still, he turned around, but when she was changing, he lightly coughed: "What haven’t I seen before?"
Su Ruanruan was infuriated, her little hands trembling as she got dressed.
She planned to ignore him forever.
Just at that moment, Bao Jingse’s voice came from the bedroom doorway: "Brother, Dr. Zhong and the others have arrived."
Bao Jingyan went to open the door and instructed in a calm voice: "Please ask them to wait in the small reception room, I will be there shortly."
As she left, she caught a glimpse of Su Ruanruan.
Lean and delicate, sitting on the sofa, as she swept her black hair behind her.
Her slim, petite shoulders were white and delicate, and her floral dress rested on her slender waist.
The scene was indescribably enticing and beautiful.
Bao Jingse looked back at her brother, feeling quite speechless.
Ruanruan, she’s still so young!
Bao Jingyan noticed his sister’s look and said displeasedly: "Wait downstairs."
Bao Jingse couldn’t help but whisper, "She’s so young, don’t bully her too much."
Bao Jingyan watched his sister.
She dared not say anything more and hurried downstairs.
Bao Jingyan shut the door, turned around: "Come downstairs with me."
Su Ruanruan still hesitated.
He went over and hugged her from behind, nibbling on her tender earlobe: "You are mine, what are you afraid of?"
She blushed, slowly shaking her head.
Bao Jingyan smiled, held her hand, and led her downstairs, pushing open the door of the small reception room.
Inside, besides the research team, there were Xiao Ran and Bao Jingse. Seeing Bao Jingyan bringing Su Ruanruan in, aside from Xiao Ran, everyone else was surprised.
Dr. Zhong, who was quite elderly, couldn’t help but say: "Jingyan, is this appropriate?"
Doting on a woman shouldn’t be , should it?
With his remark, others agreed.
Bao Jingyan took the main seat, his gaze swept around and finally settled on Su Ruanruan’s face, his voice gentle: "Why aren’t you sitting down?"
Su Ruanruan bit her lip.
Bao Jingyan chuckled lightly: "I forgot to tell you all, the proposal for the component improvement was made by Miss Su."
This revelation shocked everyone present.
For a long time, no one spoke.
Finally, Dr. Zhong was the first to speak, his tone very cautious: "Really?"
Bao Jingyan pulled Su Ruanruan’s arm, letting her sit next to him, and just smiled.
Dr. Zhong and the others looked at each other, not saying anything.
But in their hearts, doubts remained.
Since the occasion was not very formal, Bao Jingyan dressed casually.
A white shirt with black trousers, the top two buttons of his shirt undone, sleeves rolled up to the elbows revealing the nice lines of his arms.
When he wasn’t speaking, he would bite on a cigarette end.
Su Ruanruan occasionally stole glances at him.
He caught her look with a smile that was both teasing and mocking.
It was like mocking, yet more like teasing.
Su Ruanruan’s face couldn’t help but turn red...
When the discussion was almost over, Bao Jingyan turned his head: "You talk to Dr. Zhong and the others."
