The light was dim, and he was dressed in black again, not clearly visible unless looked at closely.
Bao Ziqi’s gaze fell on Su Ruanruan’s face, and he asked indifferently, "You went to pick her up in the evening, why did you only come back now?"
Housekeeper Wang took the initiative to reply, "Mrs. Gu couldn’t bear to let her stay a little longer."
Bao Ziqi sneered, "Since when have you been so biased towards her?"
Housekeeper Wang replied without giving anything away, "Miss Su is the apple of the old lady’s eye, the old lady said that we cannot let Miss Su suffer the slightest grievance again!... Master Ziqi, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take Miss Su to the old lady now."
Bao Ziqi gave Su Ruanruan a cold look and got up to go upstairs.
After he left, Housekeeper Wang lowered his voice and said to Su Ruanruan, "Young Master Jingyan has his reasons for not being able to go public now."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "When the lady passed away, she left 30% of Dijing Group’s shares to the eldest young master, but the sir holds 40%."
After finishing speaking, he looked deeply at Su Ruanruan, "The lady died tragically, the young master and the young mistress have endured till today, I hope Miss Su can understand the eldest young master."
Su Ruanruan bit her lip, "His mother..."
Housekeeper Wang sighed, "It’s better for the eldest young master to tell you about this! It’s late, Miss Su, you should go to bed early."
Su Ruanruan nodded her thanks and walked into the bedroom.
She took out the gown and hung it properly, continuously pondering Housekeeper Wang’s words while stroking the satin.
There must be a deep animosity between Bao Jingyan and Bao Mingyuan!
Related to the death of Bao Jingyan’s mother?
Her head was somewhat in turmoil, she took a bath and lay in bed, finding it hard to fall asleep.
In her restless state, the smartphone beside her pillow rang.
Picking it up, it was a WeChat message from Bao Jingyan.
[Let’s have breakfast together tomorrow morning.]
Su Ruanruan thought for a while and replied with a single [Okay].
Sure enough, early the next morning when she went for breakfast, she saw Bao Jingyan.
He was wearing a dark blue shirt with a light gray tie, looking very meticulous.
He and Bao Mingyuan were discussing business, perhaps because Su Ruanruan felt aggrieved this time, Bao Mingyuan stopped discussing business when he saw her coming, and asked warmly, "Are you doing okay at Gu family’s?"
Su Ruanruan politely replied, "Pretty good."
Bao Mingyuan patted her shoulder reassuringly, "Your aunt didn’t mean to trouble you, I’ve also scolded Jingyuan for that, regarding your third sister... she’s lying in the hospital."
Su Ruanruan smiled lightly, "I’ve visited her."
Bao Mingyuan didn’t say anything more, only instructing the servant to pour her some milk, then he continued discussing business with Bao Jingyan.
Su Ruanruan listened from the side.
They were discussing the experiment for a new drug.
Bao Jingyan said, "In two more weeks, we should roughly enter the drug testing phase."
Bao Mingyuan took a drag of his cigarette and said unhurriedly, "I’ve heard news that Luotech Medicine is also researching this type of drug, Jingyan, you can’t let them get ahead of us."
Bao Jingyan nodded, "Don’t worry, Dad."
"You handle things, I’m never worried."
While talking, Bao Ziqi came down from upstairs.
Seeing Bao Jingyan at home, he snorted lightly, "Big brother is also here."
Bao Jingyan displayed the disposition of an elder brother, slowly saying, "I heard you’re interested in a female student."
Bao Ziqi sat down opposite him, spread his napkin before replying, "Just a student under contract."
He suddenly said, "She plays the piano very well."
Su Ruanruan had been silent, slowly drinking her milk.
Bao Jingyan actually smiled, "Rare to see you appreciate someone , you can meet her at the dance."
Bao Ziqi said abruptly, "That night, she will play ’Starry Sky’."
