Su Ruanruan returned to the Bao Mansion.
Old Zhao was holding that pot of green plum, beaming with joy.
It was late at night, yet Gui Zhi was repeatedly admiring it with her reading glasses on.
She couldn’t stop praising, "It’s of excellent character!"
She also said, "It needs a good spot to be displayed properly."
Su Ruanruan, however, said: "Just place it in your room then, you’ll be happy to see it day and night."
Gui Zhi hastened to say, "Such a precious thing!"
Su Ruanruan wouldn’t let her decline. Dıscover more novels at novelꜰire.net
She countered: "Aunt Gui is the best at tending to plants, if you won’t take the trouble, who will?"
She brought it back to the bedroom to admire, unable to let go.
Su Ruanruan went to soothe the little beauty into sleep before returning to the master bedroom.
She was tired from a busy day.
Leaning on the couch, half-asleep, she suddenly felt a tickle on her nose.
She slightly opened her eyes.
Bao Jingyan had returned, bending over to tease her.
His body carried a faint scent of red wine.
Su Ruanruan feigned annoyance: "You told me to come back early, yet someone socialized until deep into the night."
Bao Jingyan chuckled.
He took off his coat to squeeze onto the couch with her.
Su Ruanruan disliked it: "Come only after you’ve showered."
Bao Jingyan trapped her beneath him, rubbing his nose affectionately against her.
He said: "After a shower, I won’t be so easily satisfied, Miss Su... Are you sure?"
Su Ruanruan gently bit her tender red lips.
She said, "I have important things to discuss!"
His dark eyes captured hers: "I have important matters to attend to as well!"
Every time he drank, he would be intensely passionate.
Su Ruanruan, having ignored him for quite some time, was willing to indulge him.
She leaned in proactively, kissing him.
Bao Jingyan wrapped his arms around her slender waist, indulging himself.
After their intimate moment.
Su Ruanruan leaned in Bao Jingyan’s embrace, softly saying, "Something happened today at the He Residence."
Bao Jingyan’s intoxication subsided.
But he didn’t want to move; lying there with her was so comfortable.
He asked her, "Even admiring the green plum has caused an issue?"
Su Ruanruan informed him: "The green plum was procured by He Jitang, he needs to cure someone, but he wouldn’t tell me who."
Bao Jingyan smiled lightly, "Definitely something unspeakable."
Speaking of ’unspeakable’ reminded Su Ruanruan of the beautiful famous actor.
She told Bao Jingyan about it, omitting the details of eavesdropping from the corner.
Bao Jingyan pondered for a moment.
He said: "This famous actor is merely a pawn! He Jitang taking her in must have another ulterior motive!"
Su Ruanruan was aware as well.
Her beautiful eyes brimmed with wisdom.
She said: "When King Yan fights, even the demons see profit."
Originally, they were discussing serious matters.
As soon as Su Ruanruan mentioned this, Bao Jingyan became even more interested.
One hand behind his head, he squinted at her: "What did you just say? King Yan fights?"
He drew her in imperceptibly, his voice growing huskier: "How do they fight?"
She sat upright with dignity, running her fingers through her hair.
She said: "You always do this!"
He half sat up, kissing behind her ear: "You don’t like it? If not, I won’t say it again."
How could Su Ruanruan not like it.
Half-resistance was merely the pleasure of the boudoir.
Bao Jingyan’s preferences, she knew all too well!
The Yin Family was making moves, Su Ruanruan pretended not to know.
In just a few days, something did indeed happen.
Late at night, a guest arrived at the Bao Mansion.
It was none other than Sun Jingan!
His work had been going poorly lately.
The Yin Family had turned against him.
The Yin Family also gifted a famous actor to He Jitang, and the winds in City B had changed.
Those who ingratiated themselves with the Yin Family and slighted Sun Jingan were plentiful!
He came to Su Ruanruan for advice!
