Bao Jingyan draped his arm over Su Ruanruan’s shoulder and said, "Ruanruan originally planned to give you a limited edition Hermès, but now it seems there’s no need to do so."
Gu Jiarou was quick to ingratiate herself.
She had wanted that particular one for a long ti but was never able to get her hands on it.
She clung to Su Ruanruan, "Just put in a word for ! I’ll even call him ’brother-in-law.’"
The Gu Family all laughed, the room filled with joy and laughter.
Just then, the butler of Gu Mansion ca over.
"People from the Su Family are here to see Miss Yunxi."
Mada Gu wiped her hands and gave a restrained smile.
She said, "Tell them, the young lady is not available! Oh right, from now on, call her Sister Ruanruan instead!"
She added with a smile, "It’s quite a pleasant na."
The butler went out to deliver the ssage.
At the gate of the Gu Family’s villa.
The mbers of the Su Family had all arrived.
The Su family patriarch didn’t dare to use his wheelchair, stubbornly propping himself up with a cane while his old bones stood for quite so ti.
Su Yugu brought both of his sons and daughter along with his wife, all anxiously waiting.
Su Ruanruan soared sky-high, becoming the darling of the Gu Family.
No matter what, they had firmly secured a connection with this noble family!
Su Ruanruan’s aunt instructed her daughter, "Don’t offend Ruanruan again now that tis have changed."
Su Qionglin was devastated.
Barely conscious, she muttered, "Why her? Why not ?"
Her mother was livid but couldn’t bring herself to scold her.
Su Yugu made a decisive call: "Qionglin will stay in the car later; there’s no need for her to go in."
Su Qionglin’s face darkened, and she imdiately climbed into the car.
"Look at what you’ve taught!" Su Yugu reproached his wife.
Su Qionglin’s mother looked as if she wanted to cry but couldn’t.
Su Yugu, no longer paying her any mind, spoke to the Su family patriarch, "It’s been so long, they wouldn’t refuse to let us in, would they?"
Under the hot sun, the old patriarch was full of vitality.
He said proudly, "They wouldn’t dare! After all, the Su Family has a scholarly background. The Gu Family would give us this face."
Su Yugu was relieved.
At that mont, the black carved gate slowly slid open.
A man looking like a butler ca out.
His expression was stern, with not the slightest smile: "I’m sorry, Mr. Su, but our madam says the young lady is busy and might not be able to see you."
The old patriarch’s face turned a dark shade of purple with anger, but he still softened his voice and tried again.
"Ruanruan must not know we have arrived, please inform her once more. Say her grandfather and uncles and aunts are all here to see her."
The butler remained unmoved: "Mr. Su, you’ll need to contact the young lady yourself for this matter." With that, he retreated.
The black carved gate slowly closed in front of the Su Family.
The old patriarch trembled all over.
Suddenly, he fell straight to the ground.
The Su Family was thrown into chaos.
...
Inside the hall.
Mada Gu sat close to Su Ruanruan and asked softly, "Really not going to et them?"
Su Ruanruan gave a slight smile, "I’ll et them, of course! But let’s let them hang for a bit longer."
Mu Jiu, the Su Family, the Bao Family... all need to be kept waiting.
The one who can’t hold out will be at a disadvantage!
Despite her young age, Su Ruanruan had great patience.
Mada Gu loved her dearly.
The child had her own ideas.
That evening, she had Su Ruanruan stay the night.
Bao Jingyan had no objections, only spiriting her away to the car for a long, intimate ti...
In the following days, Su Ruanruan spent quality ti accompanying Mada Gu.
They had tea, went shopping.
Listened to concerts.
Mada Gu was both happy and content.
Naturally, photos of them made it to various newspapers, becoming the talk of the town.
So people were happy, but others not so much.
Since that night, everyone in the Bao Family had their own thoughts.
Except Bao Ziqi, who seed intent on continuing his good relationship with Xia Minglan.
Coming ho late and leaving early.
Old Mada Bao told her son, "Minglan seems alright, but she definitely doesn’t compare to Ruanruan."
