He was wearing pajamas, not knowing how long he had been standing there.
They exchanged glances, the man’s dark eyes were exceptionally deep, his gaze falling upon her.
Jiang Ruan felt a bit embarrassed, unsure of how much he heard of what she just said, she braced herself and went upstairs.
Standing in front of him, she pouted and said, "Weren’t you unwilling to get up? Why are you eavesdropping here now?"
Bao Ye smiled, "I wanted to go to the bathroom, and when I ca out I was curious about what he was here for, so I listened in."
"He ca because Tian Tian is ignoring him, so he ca to ask for help," Jiang Ruan said.
Bao Ye said matter-of-factly, "Yeah, I heard it all."
"He gave a gift, but I didn’t take it, made him take it back. I don’t take rewards for no reason. Besides, I’m not helping him because his gift was valuable or he has a lot of money."
"It’s just because he loves Tian Tian."
Bao Ye said, "Good."
He was too quiet.
Jiang Ruan felt sothing was off, she tilted her head to look at the man, her dark eyes blinked: "What’s up? Are you unhappy?"
Bao Ye lowered his eyes to look at her for a few seconds, suddenly reached out to pull her into his arms, rubbing his chin against her neck, his voice a little hoarse: "No."
"You did quite well."
"Pretty aweso."
With pride in his voice, Bao Ye said, "No wonder you’re my woman."
Being able to stand independently.
And withstand the temptation of money.
Suddenly praised, Jiang Ruan was a bit taken aback, her face nestled against his chest, she burst into laughter: "Hey, you praise like that, I’ll feel really weird."
"It’s rare, you know how to complint people."
Bao Ye responded, "Mhm, I’ll praise you more from now on."
"No way," Jiang Ruan said, "If you keep praising , I’ll get arrogant, and then I won’t know how to be humble."
Bao Ye said domineeringly, "My woman doesn’t need to be humble."
Jiang Ruan: "..."
After being affectionate with him for a while, Bao Ye changed clothes and freshened up.
Jiang Ruan accompanied him for breakfast and then got ready to go to the company. She’s been busy filming a show these days.
It was already past eight in the evening when they finished filming.
Thinking about the matter between Su Tiantian and Zou Ji, Jiang Ruan called Lu Jie to set up a dinner.
Lu Jie was available.
After hanging up, Jiang Ruan called Su Tiantian.
Su Tiantian was at ho feeling emo; she hasn’t gone out to play for almost a month. Hearing Jiang Ruan talk about eating hotpot, she instantly got excited.
Agreed without hesitation.
Jiang Ruan couldn’t help but laugh, knowing she can’t resist food.
The three quickly agreed.
Half an hour later, they t in a private room at a Chongqing hotpot restaurant.
Ever since their hotpot outing was photographed and posted online, Jiang Ruan has been extra cautious while eating hotpot.
She asked the waiter to bring the sauces directly to the private room.
And asked them not to disturb unless necessary.
Eating the spicy hotpot, the three of them sweated profusely on their foreheads.
Su Tiantian used to not like spicy food, but now she can’t get enough.
"Jiang Ruan, try this beef tripe; it’s so fresh and delicious," Su Tiantian called cheerfully, "It’s crunchy, I feel it’s even better than duck intestine."
Jiang Ruan smiled and said, "Okay."
She picked a piece of beef tripe, ate it, and nodded in praise, "Mm, it really is tasty."
The three were eating hotpot, chatting away.
As they chatted, the topic was led by Jiang Ruan to Zou Ji.
"I wonder what Zou Ji has been busy with lately; I haven’t seen him in a while." Jiang Ruan asked, "Tian Tian, have you seen him recently?"
Upon hearing Zou Ji’s na, Su Tiantian’s mood instantly worsened, her eyes flickered evasively, she gripped her chopsticks tightly, feeling a bit nervous: "No... not at all."
"I haven’t seen him lately."
"Huh." Lu Jie was surprised, "He hasn’t asked you out to play lately? I rember not long ago you two used to go out a lot, you practically explored all of Beijing."
