After Su Qionglin left, Mada Bao helped the old lady co over.
In the dead of night, the old lady was not pleased to be roused and as soon as she arrived, she lashed out: "What matter is worth such a fuss, to the point of causing chaos at this ungodly hour and disturbing the peace of the household?"
She was implicitly criticizing Mada Bao.
Mada Bao, uncharacteristically, kept silent.
Bao Mingyuan, however, felt sowhat weary and also harbored so resentnt towards his mother.
If the old lady hadn’t brought Ruanruan into the family back then, none of this would’ve happened.
He looked up at the old lady without saying a word.
After all, they were flesh and blood; that look alone made the old lady’s heart sink.
The old lady sat next to her son, and her voice softened considerably: "Mingyuan, what’s wrong with you?"
Before Bao Mingyuan could speak, Bao Jingyuan started to chatter away: "What else could be wrong? Su Ruanruan has committed theft."
She pointed at the precious bracelet and declared: "This is the evidence!"
The old lady looked at Su Ruanruan, intending to speak on her behalf, but then Bao Mingyuan shot her a look.
His expression was unusually grave.
The old lady thought it over and kept quiet.
Bao Mingyuan spoke in a low voice, "I asked the old lady to co as a witness."
He looked at Su Ruanruan with a gentle expression: "Whoever gave you this bracelet, as an uncle who was once young, I can understand."
Su Ruanruan softly replied: "It was given by soone else."
Bao Mingyuan didn’t expect her to admit it so directly, and he was montarily stunned.
Bao Ziqi, who had been sitting there all along, suddenly tensed his sharply defined facial features.
He stared hard at Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan repeated: "It was given by soone else."
Bao Mingyuan had harbored so faint hope, but now his heart felt dead inside.
Jingyan, he really went behind his back with Su Ruanruan.
He silently watched the young girl before him, and after a long pause, finally spoke in a hoarse voice: "Since you and Ziqi are incompatible..."
His next line was about to be a blunt suggestion to split up and send her back ho.
But then Bao Ziqi spoke up: "It’s not a problem for her to stay with the old lady."
After saying this, he looked at the old lady and spoke softly: "Doesn’t the old lady still need soone to take care of her?"
When he spoke in this way, everybody was stunned.
Bao Jingyuan murmured: "Didn’t Second Brother dislike Su Ruanruan the most? Why is he speaking up for her?"
She couldn’t understand.
Mada Bao was anxious!
No one knows a son better than his mother; Ziqi seed to have taken Su Ruanruan to heart.
Originally, the old lady had been happy to see a relationship flourish, but it was clear that now Ziqi was solely enthused.
Ruanruan’s heart wasn’t with Ziqi.
The old lady had been considerate of Su Ruanruan’s feelings and hadn’t spoken up until now, but she found it necessary to say: "Ruanruan, if you can explain where this bracelet ca from, there’s still room for negotiation. Your uncle is just worried you might be deceived emotionally."
Mada Bao secretly sneered.
Who could offer over a hundred million to deceive soone’s feelings?
After the old lady spoke, Bao Ziqi clenched the cup in his hand tightly, suddenly feeling an urge.
He wanted to speak up; he wanted to say he was the one who gave her the bracelet.
He didn’t understand why he felt compelled to do so, but he knew he didn’t want Su Ruanruan to leave the Bao Family like this.
Just as Bao Ziqi was about to speak up, Su Ruanruan softly said: "It was given by Sister Jingse."
At that comnt, everyone was taken aback.
Jingse?
How could it be Jingse?
Clearly, the Bao family did not believe it.
At that mont, a familiar female voice sounded at the door: "Dad, what are you all doing to make Ruanruan so scared?"
