Bao Jingyan’s fingers lightly pinched her slender waist: "With Miss Su’s words, I am naturally at ease."
Su Ruanruan looked at him, her gaze affectionate.
She couldn’t help but whisper softly: "I miss you very much."
Bao Jingyan did not respond.
But his gaze was so intense, it made Su Ruanruan’s body go weak.
Guessing her thoughts, Bao Jingyan chuckled softly and actually gave her waist a light pat: "You should head back first."
Although he said no more, Su Ruanruan felt warm inside, knowing he would be by her side.
Returning to the private room.
He Jitang sat drinking tea and also noticed the small leather case in her hand.
Su Ruanruan asked lightly: "The item my mother had Uncle Yan deliver, does Third Brother need to inspect it?"
He Jitang smiled faintly: "Am I so untrustworthy in Fourth Sister’s eyes?"
Su Ruanruan said: "Even less so!"
He Jitang surprisingly wasn’t angry, he picked up her small leather case and said to Young Master Huo’s grand young madam: "I appreciate the grand young madam’s company to Fourth Sister today. I shall express my thanks another day."
Young Master Huo’s grand young madam exchanged a few polite words.
She thought to herself: Indeed, I was not mistaken, Miss Su is truly the apple of Third Young Master He’s eye! And she has the ability, Chen Xishan may not be a match for her!

Su Ruanruan followed He Jitang into the car.
This time he did not overstep, but instead talked to her about Boss Yan’s play, only without mentioning the famous actor.
He had a past with the famous actor, which was ultimately dishonorable, so of course, he wouldn’t mention it.
Su Ruanruan was absent-minded.
Upon arriving at the other courtyard, Su Ruanruan carrying the small leather case wanted to return to her small courtyard.
Her hand was pulled.
She looked up, and He Jitang immediately let go.
He looked at her under the moonlight and whispered: "Ruanruan, don’t be so cold to me!"
Su Ruanruan reminded him: "Third Brother, we only have a cooperative relationship, you should not say such ambiguous things again."
She always refused him, and He Jitang, who loved but could not obtain, only yearned for her more.
He purposely bantered with her: "My feelings towards Fourth Sister, are indeed just like this!"
Su Ruanruan pulled back the small leather case, ignoring him!
He Jitang stepped forward: "Are you angry?"
Su Ruanruan said softly: "Third Brother, let me go. Staying by your side is only bad for you!"
He Jitang stopped in his tracks.
He gave a faint smile and then said: "If I could let you go, why wouldn’t I wish for you to be happy and prosperous?"
In his youth, he had loved Lin Xianni, a love that started with Lin Xianni’s beauty, intertwined with a man’s vanity!
Lin Xianni betrayed him.
He immediately discarded her.
But Ruanruan was different, he did not originally have such thoughts, it was her who stepped by step walked into his heart.
He loved her soul and yet, she was also born beautiful.
By the time He Jitang realized, he was already deeply rooted in his love for her and couldn’t let go.
He confessed under the moonlight.
Su Ruanruan shook her head lightly and took the small leather case into the small courtyard...
He Jitang watched her from behind for a long time.

Today, Su Ruanruan had seen Bao Jingyan.
Though it was only a brief few minutes of interaction, it gave her peace of mind and alleviated the pang of yearning.
Once settled, she suddenly felt there was too much left unsaid.
A young beauty at home not crying, how well her elders were, how Jingyuan was getting along with Second Brother...
Thinking of these, Su Ruanruan’s heart felt tender.
She went to see Ci’an, then changed her clothes and took a shower.
Deep into the night, as she lay in bed tossing and turning without a hint of sleepiness.
It was all thoughts of Bao Jingyan!
She simply got up, sat on the couch by the window, and silently stared outside.
Suddenly, the window latch was flipped open, and a dark figure jumped in.
Su Ruanruan was startled.
Just as she was about to speak out, the person covered her lips, then his face came close to her ear and said hotly: "It’s me!"
Su Ruanruan’s heart fluttered.
The person moved his hand away and smiled at her with a raised eyebrow: "Stunned? Or has it really been two months, and Miss Su has forgotten how to carry on a secret affair?"
