Upon hearing these words, Ruan Yiqian’s brow instantly twitched; he had an intuition that it must be Cheng Xining or Ruan Lingyu who had done something to Mianmian, otherwise, He Nan wouldn’t have suddenly visited.
Moreover, judging by the expressions on both of their faces, they had surely already spoken, and the conversation had not been a pleasant one.
As he watched Ruan Lingyu go upstairs, Ruan Yiqian cut straight to the chase and asked, "Is it my mom or Xining?"
"Both," replied He Nan.
He rubbed his temples, seemingly already foreseeing a scenario in which Shen Mianmian would no longer forgive Ruan Lingyu.
"I wasn’t vigilant enough with them. Later, I’ll have a talk with my mom. Is Mianmian all right? Did she ask you to deliver the things?"
Mianmian wasn’t someone who usually acted childishly, yet she did this. Clearly, what Cheng Xining and his mother had done this time must have been quite over the top.
"Cheng Xining framed Mianmian for theft. If you can’t resolve this to my satisfaction, I will handle it myself," said He Nan sternly.
"Framed Mianmian for theft?"
Ruan Yiqian’s expression darkened, yet he also knew that if He Nan resolved it, the relationship between the Cheng and He families would become very strained, and there would likely be a falling out starting with He Nan’s generation.
If Mianmian really is Ruan Mianmian, she and Cheng Xining would be cousins as well...
The more he thought about it, the more Ruan Yiqian felt a headache coming on. He massaged his forehead and said, "I’ll take care of this matter. For now, don’t intervene."
He Nan didn’t say anything, but his attitude was clear, meaning that if he were dissatisfied with how Ruan Yiqian handled the situation, he would intervene, regardless of whose feelings might be hurt.
After a moment of silence, Ruan Yiqian added, "I’ve sent off the hair for DNA testing, and the results should be back in a few days." The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝕟𝕖𝕥
When this topic came up, he was reminded of the previous afternoon when He Nan deliberately teased him, but with what Cheng Xining and Ruan Lingyu had done being so excessive, he didn’t have the confidence to bicker with He Nan about those things.
Over the years, nobody knew what situation Shen Mianmian would be in if not for He Nan.
No matter how you look at it, this was to He Nan’s credit.
He Nan was not only Mianmian’s benefactor but also a great benefactor to their family.
He Nan scoffed, "You think Mianmian would accept your family?"
Ruan Yiqian choked and, after thinking it over, replied, "If it’s proven that Mianmian is indeed Mianer, I will let my father first make contact with her. He hasn’t done anything to harm Mianmian, so we’ll keep his identity a secret for now and let them interact for a while before revealing it."
This was something he had learned from the old Mr. He.
He Nan narrowed his eyes slightly, reminding him, "Don’t forget who lost her back then."
He sighed helplessly. What had their family done to Mianer?
No wonder He Nan had such a strong opinion about their family regarding this issue. If it had been him, he couldn’t have accepted it either.
But He Nan didn’t care about Ruan Yiqian’s perspective. He stood up and said, "Resolve this by tomorrow afternoon; otherwise, I won’t hesitate to handle it personally."
By coming to the Ruan household first, he was giving the Ruan Family the utmost respect.
Ruan Yiqian nodded, saw He Nan out, and then knocked on Ruan Lingyu’s room door. In a moment, Ruan Lingyu came out after opening the door.
"He’s gone," Ruan Yiqian confirmed, nodding as he walked to sit down on the living room couch. "Mom, there’s something I want to talk to you about."
Ruan Lingyu’s complexion changed, "Is it about Shen Mianmian?"
Without waiting for his reply, Ruan Lingyu continued, "Has Xiaonan gone mad, or have you too?"
