An uninvited guest arrived at Bao Mansion.
It was the cousin-in-law from the Sun Family.
The woman sat in the living room for two hours.
The servants neglected her, not even offering a cup of tea.
Growing anxious as she waited, Bao Jingyan slowly descended from upstairs.
His hair neatly trimmed.
His facial features sharp and distinct.
The cousin-in-law couldn’t help but stand up and called out, "Jingyan."
Bao Jingyan sat down on the sofa opposite her.
The woman had been suffering lately.
She had offended Jingyan, and her husband’s business was failing.
He took out his frustrations on her and their son every day.
Her husband wanted a divorce and didn’t want their son anymore; he planned to find another woman to bear him a better child.
The woman started crying out of grievance.
She pleaded with Bao Jingyan, "Jingyan, please let me see Miss Su! I beg her to spare me."
Bao Jingyan turned to the side, signaling a servant to bring him a cup of black coffee.
The servant dared to speak up, "The young mistress said that you shouldn’t drink this in the early morning."
The woman immediately instigated, "She even controls this?"
She thought Bao Jingyan would be displeased.
However, Jingyan calmly said, "Then bring over a cup of hot milk."
The milk was brought over shortly after.
The woman shut her mouth.
Bao Jingyan’s smile was faint.
He said, "In this household, Ruanruan’s words carry more weight than mine."
The woman, extremely embarrassed, dared not instigate further.
She only pleaded with Bao Jingyan, "Jingyan, for the sake of our familial relations, please give me a way out."
In the past, Bao Jingyan could have utterly ruined her family.
But now he had a wife and daughter.
He had said that he wanted to accumulate blessings for his wife and daughter.
Bao Jingyan then said, "I didn’t want to spare you! But Ruanruan pleaded for you last night."
The woman didn’t believe it.
She said, "She hates me too much, how could she plead for me?"
Bao Jingyan sneered, "You think everyone is as malicious as you!"
The woman dared not speak.
Bao Jingyan thought for a while, then casually said, "Bring your husband and child, come apologize to my wife and daughter! Then we’ll let this matter go."
Overjoyed, the woman became more demanding, "What about the losses my family business suffered?"
Bao Jingyan set down his cup.
He sneered, "Do you still expect me to compensate you? Even if I wanted to, I doubt you’d live to spend it!"
The woman saw his ruthlessness!
She dared not ask further, and scurried out in a panic.
She went to the Sun Family crying, but was scolded by Mrs. Sun Jingan.
Mrs. Sun Jingan said to her, "It’s only because Ruanruan stopped him, otherwise do you think you’d still be able to stand here and talk?"
She added, "Who else if not talking about Jingyan’s darling!"
She left the fool with these words, "Jingyan cherishes Ruanruan more than any darling."
The woman was completely stunned.
Later, her whole family came to apologize.
Bao Jingyan and the darling accepted it.
Su Ruanruan didn’t meet them.
She went to a place, to meet someone.
It was Xia Minghan from many years ago.
Before Xia Minghan was released, he wrote a letter to Su Ruanruan.
He wanted to see her.
Su Ruanruan agreed, and on the day of his release, she was at the gate to receive him.
They hadn’t seen each other for years.
Xia Minghan had aged a lot and also matured a lot.
He gazed at Su Ruanruan, his voice hoarse, "I wrote a letter, not expecting you would come."
Su Ruanruan smiled, "I always keep my word."
Old Zhao was still driving for her.
Old Zhao also had some connections with Xia Minghan, but was very polite at the moment.
He said, "Mr. Xia, please get in the car."
Xia Minghan hesitated at the sight of the luxurious car.
Su Ruanruan guessed his thoughts, saying, "Now that you are out, things are different!"
She took him to a place.
He changed clothes and groomed his hair and beard thoroughly.
Old Zhao complimented, "Buddha needs gold, man needs clothes, this saying is indeed true!"
