Hearing her mother mention her, Ruan Wanrou curled her lips in dissatisfaction. "Luo Yizhou and I are simply not suited for each other. She was afraid of a blind date.
"You still have the nerve to say that." Bai Yu looked at her with dissatisfaction, "Yesterday, your grandfather said that he would do his best to help you and Luo Yizhou get back together. I want to see what you'll do then?"
"Luo Yizhou has a girlfriend. Don't tell me I'm going to be the third person? "But I don't like him, why would I do that?" Ruan Wanrou stuck out her tongue.
"So you did the right thing?" Bai Yu looked at her with some displeasure.
"Forget it, Yu'er. We can't force our way through matters of the heart." Ruan Qingdie comforted Bai Yu.
"Of course I know that, but that's not what dad thinks …" Bai Yu was still very worried about Ruan Wanrou.
Ruan Qingdie looked at the stairs, "Father is stubborn, but the children all have their own ideas, and now is not the time to force marriage." Although she was not happy in her marriage, she had never thought of controlling her son's feelings and marriage.
"Aunt is so kind." Ruan Wanrou said with a smile.
"What's so good about me? Your grandpa talks all day." Chu Zhiruo's tone was cold. "I also don't want Yi'er to go on a blind date with the girl from Zhou Family. Their life is simply too short, and I like the fact that he can be with the person I like more.
After getting off the plane, Fu Yi held her hand and pushed her luggage away from the airport.
The weather in the capital was even colder, so Chu Mengyao subconsciously pulled her collar tighter.
Today was Uncle Li's day to pick them up, but because it was the capital's peak hour, they were stuck on the road.
Maybe it was because she was pregnant, but she always felt sleepy, and she didn't know when, but she fell asleep against his body.
When they had already reached the courtyard of Elder Ruan, Fu Yi finally called her up. Chu Mengyao opened her eyes and looked out the window.
After getting off the car, Fu Yi took out a few bags from the back of the car. Chu Mengyao was a little curious, "What is it?"
But Fu Yi did not say anything, holding her hand, they walked into the Ruan Mansion.
Seeing this courtyard that she had previously visited, Chu Mengyao was extremely nervous. She wondered what sort of situation would occur if she were to see his family members. Fu Yi could clearly feel Chu Mengyao shrinking back, turning her head and kissing her cheeks lightly, "It's okay, let's go." Then he took her hand and they went in.
In the living room, other than the Elder Ruan, everyone else sat on the sofa and chatted. Seeing them walk in, Ruan Wanrou immediately walked over and smiled: "Brother." Then, she looked at Chu Mengyao, and casually extended her hand. "Hello, sister-in-law. I am Ruan Wanrou. "
She directly called herself sister-in-law, making Chu Mengyao extremely embarrassed. Her face turned red, "Hello, my name is Xia Rou."
Ruan Wanrou originally wanted to tease him a little, but Fu Yi handed him a bag, "This is for you, open it and take a look."
After Ruan Wanrou opened it, she exclaimed happily, "Great, this is my favorite makeup brand now."
Fu Yi pulled Chu Mengyao and walked towards Ruan Qingdie, "This is my mother," then, he pointed at Chu Mengyao, "Mom, this is Mengyao."
"Hello, Auntie." Chu Mengyao smiled and nodded. Although she was very nervous, she still remembered to do the proper etiquette.
Ruan Qingdie looked at Chu Mengyao, her expression bland, "Hello." She sized Chu Mengyao up from head to toe, and then the woman used a naked face. Just from the looks of it, she had a perfect match with her son.
"Mom, this is a gift from Mengyao." Fu Yi handed the bag over to her.
After that, Fu Yi introduced Ruan Jingjie and Bai Yu, and then gave them the gifts.
"And mine!" Bai Yu felt very pleasantly surprised, and received it with a brilliant smile, "Mengyao, you're spending too much money."
This thanks made Chu Mengyao feel a little awkward, and she turned to look at Fu Yi. Actually, before coming to the capital, she had thought of bringing a gift, but he said that time was too tight, and she was afraid that he wouldn't be able to make it in time for the plane, so he flew directly with her to the capital. It turned out that he had already prepared the gift beforehand and was very considerate.
At this moment, footsteps could be heard walking down the stairs. Everyone turned to look, only to see Elder Ruan slowly descending.
Seeing the figure of the Elder Ruan, everyone suddenly quieted down and did not say a word.
Seeing that Elder Ruan's expression was cold, the people of Ruan Family all felt uneasy, especially Bai Yu who was afraid that Elder Ruan would lose his temper. He carefully placed the gift behind the back of the unremarkable sofa.
When Elder Ruan walked down from the second floor, he did not even look at Chu Mengyao. He surveyed the living room, and in the end, his gaze landed on Fu Yi.
"Grandfather, we're back." Fu Yi greeted as he pulled Chu Mengyao along to welcome him.
Chu Mengyao understood in her heart that the Elder Ruan did not like her, but since she was here, she could not retreat at the start.
Elder Ruan did not want to bother with Chu Mengyao, but in a situation where everyone was present, being too rude was not his style. After thinking about it, Elder Ruan only replied with an "En".
No matter what, the Elder Ruan had already responded to Chu Mengyao's question, and everyone felt slightly more at ease.
Elder Ruan walked straight towards the dining hall. When he saw that the people in the living room were still looking at each other in dismay, he was extremely displeased. "What are you all standing there for?
Hearing that, no one dared to say a word and obediently followed him into the dining hall.
Fu Yi glanced at Chu Mengyao, then smiled and said softly, "It's fine." Still holding her hand, he followed them to the dining room.
Elder Ruan's face was ugly, but he did not reveal it. However, the atmosphere at the dining table was very heavy. Everyone ate in silence, not daring to speak.
This was the first time Ruan Qingdie had met her, so her impression of Chu Mengyao was average, and she did not particularly like him. After all, she was the girl that her son liked, and she was also someone who had been a daughter-in-law in another family. It was also her first time going to the husband's house. She naturally understood that if the atmosphere in the man's house was too heavy, Chu Mengyao would feel pressured. Thinking about it, she first passed the fish soup to the Elder Ruan, then said to Fu Yi: "Yi'er, the weather is so cold, let Little Chu eat something warm, can you give her a bowl of soup?"
With her words, Chu Mengyao felt the pressure on him lessening, and the atmosphere at the table became a little better.
"I'll take it. With the soup in front of me, it'll be the most convenient!" Ruan Wanrou received the gift and felt very happy in her heart. She enthusiastically scooped the soup up and handed it over to Fu Yi.
Fu Yi took the soup and placed it in front of Chu Mengyao. He looked at her gently, "Be careful, it's a little hot."
Chu Mengyao looked at him and smiled without saying a word.
The undisguised feelings of the two made everyone feel very surprised. In their minds, Fu Yi had always looked like a 10,000 Year Ice Mountain and had always been cold and stiff towards women. In the end, he treated a woman with such gentleness and care. Thinking about how he looked at Chu Mengyao with a smile, they only had one word to describe him, and that was coquettish.
The interaction between the two was extremely annoying to the eyes of Elder Ruan, and he even reprimanded his in a displeased manner, "What are you doing if you don't eat properly?"
This did not affect Fu Yi's good mood in the slightest. Under the table, he gently held her hand. Chu Mengyao was afraid that she would be seen by the Ruan Family members, so she wanted to pull his hand back, but she held his hand even tighter. He couldn't move too much, and he couldn't open her mouth to say anything either, so he could only allow Fu Yi to hold her hand like this.
His hand was so warm that it felt like a warm current was flowing through her body, and her uneasy feeling was somewhat relieved.
To be honest, she was especially nervous coming to Elder Ruan, especially afraid that the Elder Ruan would once again treat her coldly. However, thinking of how Fu Yi was by her side, she suddenly felt that she was not afraid anymore.
She wanted to drink some fish soup with the spoon in her hand, but she didn't drink it. She couldn't stand the smell of the fish. Her chest inexplicably felt extremely uncomfortable. She immediately covered her mouth and endured for a long time. She was barely able to absorb the feeling of wanting to vomit.
"Are you not feeling well?" Fu Yi looked at her worriedly.
She blushed and shook her head. She became aware that everyone was looking at her and felt embarrassed.
"Yi'er, it seems like your friend isn't suitable to eat Ruan Family's food." "This is easy to do, if the soil and water do not accept it, then no one can do anything about it." Elder Ruan was not satisfied with Fu Yi taking the initiative to bring his girlfriend back. Now that he had the chance, he started to mock her.
"Grandfather!" Fu Yi's expression was a little ugly, and he shouted towards the Elder Ruan.
Seeing that Fu Yi's expression changed, she was afraid that he would argue with the Elder Ruan, so he quietly pulled at the corner of his clothes, hinting him not to say anything else. However, she felt a little awkward because of what Elder Ruan had just said, "Sorry, my stomach isn't feeling well these two days."
Bai Yu and Ruan Qingdie both had experience in production, upon seeing Chu Mengyao's appearance, their hearts seemed to have a conclusion. Ruan Qingdie thought about how Fu Yi had said that he was going to get married soon, and thinking about how he looked like a little nauseous just now, the suspicions in his heart became deeper and deeper, "Hurry up and eat, even the dishes are going to get cold later on."
Bai Yu placed some of the dishes into Elder Ruan's bowl, while Ruan Qingdie stirred the atmosphere, "Little Chu, there are no outsiders here, they are all from their own home, please do not be polite." She then looked at Fu Yi, "Yi'er, sit next to Little Chu and take care of him."
The small incident at the dining table quickly passed by.
After dinner, Elder Ruan called Ruan Qingdie and Fu Yi to the study room.
"Xiao Rou, accompany your sister-in-law." Fu Yi specially informed Ruan Wanrou before he went upstairs.
"No problem. You can rest assured." "I guarantee that I will complete the mission." Ruan Wanrou said with a smile.
Ruan Jingjie's family clearly knew why Elder Ruan had called Ruan Qingdie and Fu Yi to the study room, it was just that he did not explicitly explain it to Chu Mengyao.
They were all accompanying Chu Mengyao as she sat in the living room, watching television.
Now that Fu Yi was not by his side, Chu Mengyao kept feeling that it was a little awkward.
