Ruanruan suggested to send Mrs. Gu to Tongsheng Hospital for treatnt.
Gu Yuanpei agreed imdiately, but he requested that Ruanruan accompany them to the hospital.
"Uncle asks you to accompany your aunt tonight no matter what," Mr. Gu requested.
Ruanruan nodded, "You all go ahead, I’ll change my clothes and co over."
Gu Yuanpei left Gu Ze to bring Ruanruan over later, and he went to the hospital with the ambulance first.
Ruanruan watched the ambulance leave, then tidied up and went back to the courtyard to change clothes.
After changing, she ca out of the dressing room only to see Bao Jingyan standing in front of the French window.
She was startled and suppressed her voice, "How did you co over?"
Bao Jingyan turned around and pointed to the small coffee table: "Haven’t eaten anything tonight, have sothing before you go."
"There’s no ti," Ruanruan shook her head.
Bao Jingyan insisted she sit down, "Eat a little at least."
She thought for a mont and sat down, eating in small bites, suddenly feeling her legs loosening. Looking down, Bao Jingyan was squatting in front of her, massaging her knees. She tried to pull away, but he held her tight, not letting her move.
"Kneeling for so long, does it hurt?" his voice was gentle.
Ruanruan’s eyes glistened. She took another bite of the snack, "It hurts."
"It won’t kill you!" Bao Jingyan tapped her shin lightly, "That’s for stepping in."
Ruanruan lowered her eyes, softly asking, "Then why did you help ?"
"What do you think?" He smiled lightly.
Ruanruan also smiled faintly.
That bit of closeness, only the two of them could truly appreciate.
Anxious about Mrs. Bao, Ruanruan only ate two pieces before hurrying off to the hospital.
Bao Jingyan felt sowhat heartbroken, tidying her hair, "I’ll pick you up at dawn to my place, if asked here, say you are at Gu Family’s."
Ruanruan nodded in agreent.
Partly because of his support today, she found him much more agreeable.
Bao Jingyan couldn’t send her out himself; he watched her leave and waited for Gu Ze’s car to depart before heading back to his villa.
By now, most of the guests had left, only Bao Family’s servants were cleaning up.
Mrs. Bao and Bao Mingyuan were talking: "Mingyuan, I’ll take Qionglin to see Mrs. Gu tomorrow morning."
Bao Mingyuan flicked his eyelid, speaking indifferently, "Qionglin isn’t living in the hospital, it’s convenient."
Su Qionglin felt sowhat embarrassed.
Mrs. Bao also knew she had acted rashly tonight, not only making her husband unhappy but likely offending the Gu Family as well.
She pondered for a mont before saying, "Qionglin is Ruanruan’s sister, this matter Ruanruan should turn things around for us."
Thinking so strategically, Bao Mingyuan laughed bitterly: "Your thinking is really good, when it’s a good situation it’s Su Qionglin, but when it’s ti to fulfill duties it’s Ruanruan! iyu, you are too biased."
Mrs. Bao was embarrassed, "Ruanruan was raised by Qionglin’s parents, what’s wrong with her fulfilling so duties?"
Bao Mingyuan’s mood was really bad tonight, too lazy to deal with her responses, "Then covering for Qionglin before, hasn’t that favor been returned?"
Mrs. Bao was montarily speechless.
Su Qionglin’s eyes were red, not daring to retort at all.
However, Bao Ziqi said indifferently, "Don’t ntion this in the future. She is now with the old lady."
"Yes, Ruanruan is with the old lady and has nothing to do with Ziqi," Mrs. Bao followed up opportunistically.
Her remarks displeased the old lady: "You can’t tolerate a person by my side, isn’t that deliberately targeting ?"
Mrs. Bao dared not confront her and was so frustrated she itched.
Bao Jingyan, seeing the amusent, ca over and gently supported the old lady: "It’s late, the old lady should also go to sleep soon."
