Out of control and sinking

The video of Fang Cui causing trouble at the entrance of Jiang Ruan's company spread across the internet, once again putting Jiang Ruan in the eye of the storm.

But fortunately, Jiang Ruan benefited this time.

The public isn't stupid, and netizens are even more astute.

Based on Fang Cui's disturbance and her previous press conference, anyone would categorize her as a vicious aunt, not to mention her domestic violence against Jiang Ruan, who was also Chen Miao, when she was a child. She is simply wicked.

Immediately, a whole bunch of people started cursing at her.

Jiang Ruan has become a well-known tragic and pitiful character.

After a day of meetings at the company, Jiang Ruan returned to the castle exhausted and sleepy in the evening.

Bo Ye returned shortly after I got home.

Jiang Ruan was drinking the soup prepared by the maid when she heard a noise and looked up. A tall, slender man came into view.

Bo Ye took off his suit jacket and handed it to the maid. His shirt was tucked into his trousers, which made his waist look even narrower and his legs longer. It was clear that he was in a good mood, as his brows were relaxed.

"Just got back?" Noticing she was still wearing the same clothes she wore that morning, Bo Ye glanced at her and asked.

Jiang Ruan paused, then said, "Yeah, there's a lot going on at the company."

Bo Ye lifted his leg and walked over.

"Just soup?"

"Eating too much at night will make me fat, I need to maintain my figure." Jiang Ruan stuck out her tongue playfully and cutely, and casually said while sipping her soup, "This soup tastes good, would you like a bowl?"

She thought he wouldn't drink, as Bo Ye rarely ate late-night snacks, but then she saw his gaze fall on her slender face and he said indifferently, "That's fine too."

Just a few ounces of meat.

If you keep doing this, it will disappear.

A servant was attending to them.

Hearing this, he quickly replied, "Yes, Mr. Bo."

Then I went to get the soup.

Bo Ye turned his head and saw Jiang Ruan looking at him with surprise. He leaned back lazily, his arm hanging on the back of the chair. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

“Look at me like that.”

Jiang Ruan shook her head: "It's nothing."

"I remember you rarely eat at night, did you not eat dinner tonight?"

Bo Ye replied, "Mm."

"Busy today."

He rarely discussed business matters with her in detail.

Jiang Ruan said "Oh," and the conversation ended there.

Soon, the maid brought over the soup. Bo Ye always ate quietly; the noble air ingrained in a man's bones exuded elegance in every gesture. He held the soup spoon with his fingertips and drank the soup without making a sound.

The taste is indeed quite good.

The two drank their soup in silence, neither of them saying a word.

Jiang Ruan glanced at him out of the corner of her eye while drinking soup. The man's face was pale, and his eyes were full of fatigue. He just kept his head down and drank his soup, clearly indicating that he was very busy today.

Just as she was about to look away, Bo Ye suddenly looked up and met her gaze.

He saw the girl's dark eyes staring at him expectantly, like copper coins, and a fleeting moment of awkwardness and panic when their eyes met, before he quickly lowered his head.

Like a frightened rabbit.

Bo Ye's mood inexplicably improved.

“I’m hosting a banquet Friday night,” he said in a magnetic voice, his dark eyes fixed on her. “All the prominent people in the capital will be there.”

Jiang Ruan looked up, surprised, but quickly understood: "Is it for your mother?"

After all, she was the only wife of the Bo family.

Bo Ye's biological mother.

Having been away from China for many years, it's only right to throw a welcome party for my return.

But what does this have to do with her?
Jiang Ruan mocked.

Xu Yun didn't like her before.

Now that Fang Cui's incident has happened, they probably hate her even more.

Why should she make a fool of herself at her welcome banquet?

"Hmm." Bo Ye said indifferently, and was about to say something when Jiang Ruan smiled and said, "It's fine."

"With so many people around, it will be very lively, and your mother will be happy."

Bo Ye did not speak.

Perhaps the atmosphere was too awkward, Jiang Ruan put down her soup spoon and stood up: "I'm full, I'm going to take a shower first."

"Drink slowly."

Her little face was all smiles, as if she was in a very good mood.

And it seemed as if she didn't care at all about what he said.

He turned around and went straight upstairs.

The sound of footsteps echoed on the spiral staircase.

Bo Ye only looked away after the figure disappeared down the stairs.

Looking at the soup in the bowl, his eyes were dark and unfathomable.
