"Little sister-in-law, hasn’t Brother Bo told you about these things before?" Feng iling asked curiously.
Jiang Ruan shook her head, "No."
That’s why she asked her.
Jiang Ruan was quite curious about Bao Ye’s childhood, but she knew he didn’t seem very happy back then, and his parents’ relationship wasn’t good, so she never asked him about it.
Finally, she t soone who knew about Bao Ye’s past. This only fueled Jiang Ruan’s curiosity even more.
"That’s true."
"Brother Bo is such a proud person, of course he wouldn’t want to bring up those unhappy past events."
Feng iling sighed, looking sincerely at Jiang Ruan, "In reality, sotis we feel quite sorry for Brother Bo. We’re all children of wealthy families. Si Chen and I got away with it when we were growing up, and it’s only been the past few years that our families have put pressure on us. But it’s different for Brother Bo. He’s been pressured by Grandpa Bao since he was young, forced to mature before his ti. Si Chen and I weren’t close to him when we were little because he simply had no ti to play with us."
"Every ti we saw Brother Bo, his face was always cold, looking very difficult to get along with. So although we grew up together, we weren’t familiar back then."
"It was only after we grew up that we slowly started to hang out together."
Jiang Ruan nodded, "I see."
At this point, Feng iling couldn’t help but ask her, "Sister-in-law, how long have you been with Brother Bo?"
Before, Bao Ye never ntioned her presence in front of them.
Did they just get together this year?
Feng iling speculated.
But then Jiang Ruan said, "Three years."
Feng iling was dumbfounded, "What? Three years?"
"You’ve been with Brother Bo for that long? Then why haven’t I seen you when I ca here before?"
That shouldn’t be the case.
"Did you not live here before?"
Feng iling asked her.
Her shock wouldn’t subside.
She had thought they might have been together for at most half a year, but she didn’t expect it to be three years.
A thousand days.
Jiang Ruan is only twenty-four or twenty-five, which ans she started dating Bao Ye right after graduating college.
Brother Bo sure knows how to keep things under wraps.
A hidden treasure, indeed.
Jiang Ruan felt a bit awkward and said, "We’re usually busy with work, and we haven’t spent much ti together before, often apart."
"Do you love Brother Bo?" Feng iling asked, her black eyes sparkling as she looked at her, grinning, "You definitely do, right? I think so too, otherwise, you wouldn’t willingly be the woman behind him for three years. I really didn’t expect it, Brother Bo usually seems so aloof and indifferent, like he’s not interested in won. I didn’t expect him to have soone like you hidden away in this villa."
Feng iling clicked her tongue twice, "But this fits Brother Bo’s character, truly surprising."
Jiang Ruan’s eyes showed so complexity, she replied, "Hmm."
She continued, "I’m not sure if it’s love, maybe it is, maybe it’s not."
"Why do you say that?" Feng iling was surprised.
Jiang Ruan gave a bitter smile, "We’ve never been loved, we don’t understand love."
"A lot of people don’t understand love, so what? But since you’ve been together for three years, there must be feelings." Feng iling apologized, "Am I being too straightforward? Don’t take it to heart, sister-in-law."
"Not at all."
Jiang Ruan said, "I think you’re right."
"Sister-in-law, I’ve known Brother Bo for so many years, and he’s never brought a woman to et us. You’re the first."
"Just because of that, I think you’re the woman Brother Bo acknowledges from the heart, plus he didn’t even refute us calling you sister-in-law."
Feng iling said, "Brother Bo might just be inexperienced in love, so he’s a bit slow to warm up, but he’s definitely a good person. And Brother Bo is the president of Bao Group, with money and power. There’s no one in all of Beijing who would dare to ss with him. Following him, you won’t suffer a loss."
Of course, Jiang Ruan knew that.
But her attention was caught earlier. She asked in surprise, "Bao Ye hasn’t dated anyone before?"
Feng iling replied, "Nope."
"Sister-in-law, why are you asking like that?"
Jiang Ruan looked upstairs, then withdrew her gaze and asked her in a softer voice, "What about Su Wan then?"
"Aren’t there rumors online that they were childhood sweethearts, and that Bao Ye won’t date or marry because he’s waiting for her to return..."
She was interrupted by Feng iling, "What are you talking about, that’s all nonsense online, you can’t believe it, sister-in-law."
ntioning Su Wan, Feng iling frowned, "I know her, though I’m not familiar with her, but I’m quite close to her cousin. We all think Su Wan has a very strange temperant. Not many children from prestigious families get along well with her."
"Strange?" Jiang Ruan raised an eyebrow, "Why do you say that? I think she’s quite smart, capable, and an international movie queen, coming from a good family."
Hearing this praise, Feng iling suddenly understood and laughed, "Sister-in-law, could it be that you’re jealous of her?"
Jiang Ruan blushed slightly, "Don’t talk nonsense."
"Why would I be jealous of her?"
"Don’t worry." Feng iling grabbed her hand, "If Brother Bo had any interest in her, you probably wouldn’t be here. Besides, in our circle, apart from Brother Bo’s mom, no one thinks they’re a match."
"I said Su Wan has a strange temperant due to her personality; she’s very changeable, and her competitive nature is particularly strong. This is sowhat like Brother Bo."
"Anyway, I don’t have a particularly good impression of her. Won who are too domineering are hard to like."
"And don’t be fooled by her gentle facade." Feng iling whispered mysteriously in her ear, "Actually, she’s quite flirtatious in private..."
After hearing this, Jiang Ruan was completely stunned.
"But there’s one thing you can be sure of; as far as I know, Brother Bo doesn’t have any feelings for her at all."
Jiang Ruan’s eyes lit up imdiately, "Really?"
"Why would I lie to you?"
Jiang Ruan’s mood improved instantly.
Jiang Ruan loved gossip, and Feng iling had all sorts of gossip from the wealthy circle. The two of them chatted together for an entire afternoon without getting bored.
When Bao Ye and Si Chen ca downstairs, they were t with this scene in the living room.
Jiang Ruan and Feng iling were curled up on the sofa, leaning against each other, holding a tub of popcorn, with Feng iling whispering sothing in Jiang Ruan’s ear, making her laugh to the point of tears.
The living room echoed with their laughter.
Bao Ye: "..."
Hearing footsteps, Jiang Ruan collected her smile, looking up, she t the man’s dark, deep eyes, which were cold at the mont.
Why did he look unhappy?
"Little sister-in-law, Feng iling, what are you guys talking about that’s making you so happy?" Si Chen asked.
Feng iling glanced at him, "Why should I tell you?"
"Your curiosity is so strong; n should stay out of won’s affairs."
"You!" Si Chen’s temper flared up imdiately.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing." Jiang Ruan kindly intervened, "Little Si President, we were talking about gossip."
Si Chen snorted and told Feng iling, "You should take ti to learn from sister-in-law, look at her, then look at yourself, always acting like you’re filled with gunpowder, where’s your feminine side?"
Feng iling didn’t like hearing that.
The two of them started bickering again.
Jiang Ruan saw she couldn’t stop them, so she quickly left the scene.
Barefoot, she stood on the sofa.
Standing on the sofa, she barely reached above his head.
Hugging a tub of popcorn, she bit into it, her voice soft and sweet, "You guys finished working?"
Bao Ye, "Hmm."
His eyes were fixed on the popcorn at her fingertips, his voice raspy, "Is it good?"
