Chapter 717: Chapter 717: The Old Acquaintance’s Granddaughter
Soon, she recovered, turned over, found a comfortable position, and nestled into his embrace, falling into a deep sleep.
...
Early the next morning, when she woke up, Beichen Rui was no longer beside her. She opened her bleary eyes and looked around the bedroom but didn’t see him.
Her lower abdon still hurt badly. She reached out to rub it, and after a while, she lifted the blanket and got out of bed. She went to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth, casually changed her clothes, and went downstairs.
Just as she reached the top of the stairs, she faintly heard voices from the living room downstairs. She turned her head to look and saw Beichen Rui sitting there at so unknown ti, with Grandpa Bei Chen beside him, and next to them, a young girl.
She looked about twenty years old, elegantly dressed, clearly from a wealthy family at first glance.
Retracting her gaze, she descended the stairs. She could only hear what they were saying when she got closer.
"Grandpa Bei Chen, I heard Brother Rui is getting married this ti I ca back. Why so suddenly? There was no ntion of it before! If I hadn’t returned, I wouldn’t have known!"
As she spoke, the girl took out a bag from beside her and handed it to the old man. Beichen Jue just took a glance at it and imdiately bead with joy.
"Grandpa Bei Chen, my grandfather personally selected this. I hope you like it."
Ye Xinluo wasn’t curious about what was inside the bag. All her attention was on the girl calling Beichen Rui "Brother Rui."
The phrase "Brother Rui" sounded much more intimate than Jiang Shihan’s re "Rui." Who is this person, and why do they seem so familiar with the Beichen Family?
With questions swirling in her mind, she walked closer to them and saw Beichen Rui sitting with his head lowered, looking uninterested in their conversation.
Not far away, Beichen Rui seed to sense her gaze, slightly turned his head to look, and their eyes t, making Ye Xinluo pause slightly.
Beichen Rui curved his lips into a smile at her, beckoning her over with a gentle tone, "Co here."
As he spoke, the two who were chatting enthusiastically also looked her way, and Ye Xinluo had no choice but to walk towards them.
"Xinluo, quickly co over."
She sat down on Beichen Jue’s other side and affectionately greeted, "Grandpa."
"Xinluo, let
introduce you. This is the granddaughter of an old friend of mine, nad Qianqian. She just returned from abroad a few days ago." Then he turned to the girl, "Qianqian, this is your Brother Rui’s wife, Xinluo."
Upon hearing this, the girl imdiately let go of the old man’s arm, ca toward Ye Xinluo, and familiarly linked her arm, speaking very friendly, "Sister-in-law, you’re so beautiful. No wonder Brother Rui got married so quickly. Nice to et you, I’m Liang Qianqian."
Ye Xinluo returned the smile, a bit unaccustod to strangers getting so close suddenly, but she said nothing, "Hello, I’m Ye Xinluo."
Liang Qianqian linked her arm with her own, a smile brimming on her face, "Sister-in-law, how did you et Brother Rui? I rember hearing two years ago that Brother Rui wasn’t planning on getting married."
"I still rember as a child, I always liked going to Brother Rui’s house, pestering him to play with , and yet in the blink of an eye, Brother Rui is getting married."
Liang Qianqian’s grandfather and Beichen Jue were old acquaintances. When they still lived in City Z, she loved running to the Beichen Family’s house, pestering the then young Beichen Rui to play with her.
As she gradually grew up, the Liang family immigrated abroad, and in detail, Liang Qianqian hadn’t seen Beichen Rui for two years.
