"What if he doesn’t like ?" Feng iling frowned. She understood the reasoning, but she couldn’t figure out why she was attracted to that guy, Si Chen.
He’s dumb and foolish, with a mouth that brings trouble.
They’re constantly arguing whenever they et, bickering on WeChat too. If they’re in contact in any way, it’s either on the verge of a fight or already in one.
The weirdest part is, Feng iling misses him if a day passes without a quarrel.
She can’t help but send him voice ssages.
Like this.
"Idiot, what are you doing?"
"Hey, dumbass, you’re not out flirting, are you?"
But Si Chen quickly replies to her.
And then the two of them start arguing again.
"I am the eldest daughter of the Feng family." Feng iling raised her head proudly, "There are plenty of people who like . If he says he doesn’t like , wouldn’t that be extrely embarrassing? No, no, I won’t pursue him."
Jiang Ruan had it figured out.
Feng iling cares a lot about face.
But...
"Let ask you, what’s more important: your pride or being with soone you like?"
Jiang Ruan asked seriously.
Feng iling answered without hesitation, "Both are important."
Jiang Ruan was left speechless, realizing it might be tough to play matchmaker here.
She sighed, "Then I really have no solution for you."
Feng iling shrugged and said, "Let’s just leave it, sis-in-law, let nature take its course."
"If he and I are ant to be, we’ll end up together sooner or later. If not, then it just wasn’t ant to be."
Jiang Ruan had a spark of an idea, "I have a plan. Want to try it?"
Feng iling blinked, curious, "What’s the plan?"
Jiang Ruan said, pretending to be serious, "You can test if he likes you or not."
"How to test?" Feng iling asked.
"Two ways: first, you pretend to be drunk; second, you get him drunk."
Hearing these, Feng iling’s lips twitched, "Aren’t these thods a bit outdated?"
Such old tactics from who knows how many years ago.
Jiang Ruan replied, "You don’t understand."
"This is a killer move," Jiang Ruan said, "Don’t dismiss it because it’s old-fashioned. What’s important is that it can help you achieve your goal."
"Don’t you want to know if Si Chen likes you? Just try it and you’ll find out."
"If he likes you too, there’s a chance for you both. If he doesn’t, and sees you purely as a friend, then you can just find soone else to like."
Jiang Ruan said, "There are so many n in the world, plenty are better than him. You are the eldest daughter of the Feng family, why hang yourself on one tree, right?"
Jiang Ruan spoke with enthusiasm.
Feng iling’s spirits lifted instantly, "Right!"
Her eyes shone as she hesitated, "So, should I give it a try?"
Jiang Ruan encouraged, "Yes, trust yourself, boldly give it a try."
"Don’t you want to know if Si Chen likes you?"
Of course, Feng iling wanted to know.
She’s dread of knowing.
"I do."
Feng iling looked gratefully at Jiang Ruan, "Thank you, sis-in-law. I’ll give it a try. You’re right, just trying it will let know if he likes ."
The more they talked, the happier they beca.
After returning to the villa and playing around for a while, Si Chen and Feng iling each went their way ho.
Bao Ye was reading in the living room upstairs. The servants had gone to rest, leaving the villa quiet.
Jiang Ruan went to the bedroom to take a shower and changed into a nightgown, humming a tune.
Smiling brightly, she couldn’t have been in a better mood.
Bao Ye couldn’t concentrate anymore. Seeing her like this, he raised an eyebrow, "What’s got you in such a good mood?"
Prompted by his question, Jiang Ruan skipped over cheerfully, her eyes curving with her smile, and asked, "Did you notice Feng iling likes Si Chen?"
As soon as Jiang Ruan got close, Bao Ye slled the fragrance of her shower gel, a scent of gardenias.
He closed the book in his hand, putting it aside, and patted his leg, signaling her to sit down.
Without hesitation, Jiang Ruan wrapped her arms around his neck and sat directly in his lap.
Bao Ye held her slender waist.
"Yes, what’s up?"
Jiang Ruan curiously asked, "Since you noticed, why didn’t you try to matchmake them?"
Prompted by the question, Bao Ye thought for a mont, then said calmly, "Feng iling matured early and is the only daughter of the Feng family. She’ll inherit the family business in the future. She joined the company earlier than Si Chen, and she’s more capable and tough. Si Chen matured later, liking her is one thing, being together is another."
"After all, people tend to like different things at different stages of their lives."
Though it made so sense.
But Jiang Ruan didn’t think so.
Jiang Ruan said, "Feng iling likes Si Chen, but she doesn’t know if Si Chen likes her. She indeed dislikes that Si Chen is too immature, but I think people can grow, and maturity is different from love, right?"
Looking at her expectant eyes, Bao Ye’s fingertip brushed her silk nightgown, soft and smooth, his mind wandering far away.
His eyes were calm and indifferent, "I don’t know."
"They should handle their own matters. You shouldn’t worry about it."
Jiang Ruan said, "I was thinking the sa, but I really want to play matchmaker."
She smiled, her eyes curving, "I suggested a plan to Feng iling to test Si Chen."
"Can you guess what the plan is?"
Bao Ye’s lips twitched, given his understanding of her, he figured it wouldn’t be anything ingenious.
Bao Ye hesitated and said, "Get drunk? Or sleep in the sa bed?"
She didn’t expect him to guess it right away.
Jiang Ruan was wide-eyed, "How did you guess so accurately?"
Bao Ye snorted, "I know you too well."
Jiang Ruan pouted, as if implying he thought she was silly.
She said, "It’s the first one."
"Sleeping in the sa bed is a bit too outrageous, Si Chen would be scared to death."
Bao Ye smirked, "That’s not necessarily true."
Not dwelling on the topic, Jiang Ruan cheerfully said while hugging Bao Ye’s neck.
"Feng iling said today that if she ends up with Si Chen, she’ll treat to a big feast."
Bao Ye: "..."
He sighed, "Did I starve you?"
"You’re so easy to please, you can be bought with just one al."
Jiang Ruan pouted, "Well, they’re close to you, right? Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been so eager to get along with them."
"Besides, they even gave such expensive jewelry, but it’s just because of you. I know that very well, I’m self-aware."
Hearing this, Bao Ye’s dark eyes flickered with emotion.
So, in the end, it was all for him?
Bao Ye’s gaze softened instantly, putting his arm around her waist, he lowered his head and said, "You don’t need to flatter them for ."
"You’re only related to , and no one dares to touch you. No one else matters, do as you please."
The man’s voice was very gentle.
But his words were very domineering.
Jiang Ruan’s heart trembled for a mont, she stuck out her tongue and said to him, "It’s not really flattery."
"I enjoy spending ti with them, especially Feng iling. I really like her personality."
"The two of us are good friends now."
"Having more friends is a good thing."
Bao Ye said, "Hmm."
"Bao Ye, with your understanding of them, do you think they could work out?"
Jiang Ruan asked curiously.
Bao Ye said, "I don’t know."
"I’m not Si Chen, I don’t know what he thinks."
When it cos to feelings, don’t ask him.
He’s not a relationship counselor.
He hasn’t even figured out his own feelings,
where does he have the ti to manage others’
Jiang Ruan was about to say sothing when Bao Ye suddenly picked her up by the waist.
Suddenly lifted into the air in his arms, Jiang Ruan was startled and quickly wrapped her arms around his neck, "Ah."
Bao Ye carried her to the bedroom.
Jiang Ruan asked him, "Aren’t you going to continue reading?"
Bao Ye laughed angrily, "With you here, how can I concentrate?"
Jiang Ruan pouted, "So, I’m bothering you?"
"I could go to the bedroom, not disturb you, and you can keep reading."
Bao Ye’s dark eyes mixed with desire, glanced down at her small face, and with his thin lips spat out two words, "Too late."
After entering the bedroom, he went straight to the bathroom.
As the door closed, the sound of a man’s heavy breathing followed by husky kissing noises could be heard, "With ti to worry about others, why not do sothing else."
Jiang Ruan was powerless to resist.
...
...
...
Since that day when Jiang Ruan suggested an idea, Feng iling couldn’t stop thinking about testing Si Chen.
She spaced out thinking about it at work.
Even lying on her bed after work, she was still thinking about it.
Finally, Feng iling made up her mind to test Si Chen.
That night, Feng iling went to their usual place and booked a room, then had the waiter bring a bunch of wine bottles.
She even ordered a few more cases of wine.
She directly opened five or six bottles and downed them all.
And she intentionally spilled a lot of alcohol on herself.
Then grabbed so rouge and applied a layer on her cheeks.
Clearly looking very drunk.
Glancing around the room, Feng iling was satisfied with her handiwork, curved her red lips, and then picked up her phone to call Si Chen.
At the ti, Si Chen was drinking and eating with clients, and he frowned when he suddenly received a call from Feng iling. Why is she calling so late?
He’s busy.
Probably not a big deal?
But thinking about it, Si Chen still excused himself from the clients to take the call outside.
"Hello?" Si Chen said, "What’s up with calling so late? Get to the point."
Such a tone.
Damn it, Feng iling got instantly angry.
But she held it in, she had been busy all day and couldn’t let her efforts go to waste.
She moved closer to the phone, breathing heavily, and deliberately spoke in a coquettish voice, "I feel sick~ Si Chen, I feel so sick~"
"So sick~"
After saying that, Feng iling almost made herself sick.
Fortunately, Si Chen started to sound worried, "Feng iling? Are you okay?"
"Did you drink?"
"Where are you? Tell the address, I’ll co to find you."
Having achieved her goal, Feng iling continued in a flirtatious tone, "It’s Xiangyun Road..."
Hearing the address, he knew it was at the usual place.
Si Chen frowned, hung up the phone, and returned to the room.
He apologized to the clients and punished himself with three or four glasses before taking his coat and leaving.
A few minutes later, the Maybach disappeared from the parking lot.
Si Chen drove quickly, wearing a headset, and called Feng iling again.
She didn’t pick up anymore.
Called several tis, but no one answered.
Si Chen couldn’t help but curse, "Damn it, what is she up to in the middle of the night?"
He was definitely going to tell her off later.
Why pretend to be drunk with such a small tolerance?
But when Si Chen rushed to the bar and pushed open the door of the usual room, seeing what was inside,
all his anger vanished instantly.
