Mrs. Fan nodded in agreement, and looking at Cheng Min, who was always gentle and considerate, she couldn't help feeling relieved.

This is her good son-in-law.

Although my career is not that big, but I am good to my daughter, and that’s enough!

"In the future, please help Cheng Min more... If you can help with any of his investment projects, please do so."

Nudge her husband with her elbow, Mrs. Fan said with satisfaction, "Look how good he is to our daughter... Even if Wanqing is stubborn and marries Cheng Min, we can rest assured."

"What do you know about business?"

Mr. Fan put his hands behind his back, unable to help but feel a little shaken, but still more hesitant.

He is a businessman after all, and it is his nature to pursue profit.

When it comes to investment, he is more concerned about whether it is worth it.

"Yes, I don't understand, but you do! I'm not going to empty your family's savings. Just think of it as starting a business for your children. What's the big deal?"

Mrs. Fan couldn't help but frown and said angrily, "In my opinion, Cheng Min is not necessarily worse than Huo Yan. Wasn't he doing well when he was the interim president of Huo's company? Huo Yan's current achievements are due to taking over Huo's company..."

The mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at him, the more satisfied she becomes.

Perhaps because she couldn't break the spell of this proverb, Mrs. Fan found Cheng Min more and more pleasing to the eye.

He is highly capable, but is held back by the Cheng family.

What does Huo Yan have? With the same opportunity, she believes Cheng Min can do better.

Seeing that Mrs. Fan was unhappy, President Fan shook his head helplessly: "You really are...Okay, okay, am I really that stingy? Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my family."

Mrs. Fan didn't know, but he understood.

When Huo Yan took over the Huo family, the Huo family had countless problems, even more troubles than the Cheng family does now.

He is a true business genius, a person who was born to be a big shot in the business world.

It's just a pity——

Lowering his eyes, President Fan sighed softly and compromised, "I'm not a heartless person. Don't worry, Cheng Min is sincere to our Wanqing, and I won't treat him unfairly."

Anyway, the Fan family has abundant funds and is just supporting a young man.

Only then was Mrs. Fan satisfied.

Cheng Min, who had his back to them, had sharp ears and eyes, and heard clearly what they thought was "whispering". He also raised the corners of his lips slightly with satisfaction, and patted Fan Wanqing's hand in his arms, becoming more and more gentle.

It seems that waste is not without value for reuse.

Maybe sometimes, it would be better for Fan Wanqing to die than to live.

The Fan family calmed down, but on the other side, Huo Yan was not in a good mood.

He looked a little grim, and with a cold face, he bought some medicine from the pharmacy and applied it to Ruan Xingchen.

In a hurry to go out, Ruan Xingchen only wore the Wensi cram school uniform and didn't even put on a coat.

There were large scrapes on his knees, and his arms were covered with scratches and marks left by Fan Wanqing's nails.

The bloodstains were crisscrossed, looking somewhat horrible.

"They are just superficial injuries."

Ruan Xingchen shrugged nonchalantly, smiled, and pinched his face: "Mr. Huo, don't be upset. If you act like this, I'll think I'm seriously injured and dying, and I'll be pushed into the morgue in the next second."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Huo Yan suddenly raised his eyes, his dark pupils cold, and glared at her: "Nonsense!"

He is not a superstitious person. In previous years, he was immersed in work and didn't care about taboos.

But with her, he was willing to be extra careful.

This was the first time in such a long time that he spoke to her in such a harsh tone.

Ruan Xingchen smiled, her eyebrows curved, and she gently rubbed her forehead against his shoulder, whispering, "Children's words are innocent."

The sweet voice was slightly drawn out, and the warm breath swept across his neck, like a coquettish kitten.

Huo Yan's heart softened instantly, but he still said with a straight face, "You're twenty-one, and you're still talking like a child?"

"My childhood was not a very happy one."

He was a business tycoon feared by everyone, but Ruan Xingchen was not afraid of his cold face. Instead, she leaned forward and kissed his cheek gently: "After meeting Mr. Huo, my life seems to have become easier and happier. I want to be a little kid in front of Mr. Huo."

Since childhood, she has understood the hardships of life and the difficulties of poverty.

She has learned to take care of children younger than herself and not cause trouble to her grandmother.

In her previous life, she stretched herself into a taut bowstring, always busy and scheming for the eyes of others, for her life, and for her own selfish desires.

If you think about it carefully, in her two lives, it was only after she met Huo Yan that she could truly stretch herself and do whatever she wanted.

There is no need to worry about life, nor to be on guard.

Happy people use their childhood to heal their whole life, while unfortunate people use their whole life to heal their childhood.

Ruan Xingchen thought that fortunately she was lucky enough that someone held her in the palm of their hand, cared for her in every possible way, and treasured her, making her become a child.

"No."

Huo Yan raised his eyes, his dark eyes fixed on her, a certain emotion surging in his eyes: "Of course I hope that Madam is happy, but you can't always act like a child."

He didn't say why, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

For some reason, Ruan Xingchen's cheeks felt slightly hot under his gaze.

She looked away and muttered softly, "Why?"

Huo Yan chuckled and didn't answer.

"Why doesn't Mr. Huo answer?"

Ruan Xingchen's cheeks became even hotter. He leaned over and grabbed the collar of his suit, narrowing his eyes. "What evil plan is Mr. Huo planning?"

"I look forward to your wife growing up more than anyone else."

Huo Yan lowered his eyes to look at her, his deep sea-like eyes turned into water, like the shimmering sea surface: "Even if my wife grows up, you can always be my princess and queen."

Even when she grows up, he will protect her behind him.

Save her from sorrow, save her from hardship, save her from displacement.

Give her joy and shelter her from the wind and rain.

His voice was too serious, as if he was making some kind of promise.

Ruan Xingchen's heart felt warm as if it was soaked in warm water.

She stopped asking questions and leaned on his shoulder, feeling the peacefulness of the moment.

He carefully applied the medicine for her, and at Ruan Xingchen's insistence, Huo Yan sent her back to school.

While the two were on the road, they had already started a huge fight online.

When Fan Wanqing jumped off the building, there were many onlookers, including many tabloid media.

Social news like a woman committing suicide by jumping off a building due to love is enough to attract a lot of attention every time it appears.

What's more, the protagonists on the other side are Ruan Xingchen and Huo Yan.

"Ah, Mr. and Mrs. Huo are too cold-hearted, aren't they? Do they really not care about a human life? Is this the face of a capitalist?"

"Are all girls who have liked him for thirteen years so cold-blooded?"

"What else can I do if I'm not cold-blooded? Is Mr. Huo really going to divorce Ms. Ruan and be with her? That's ridiculous! Then Mr. Huo doesn't have to run the Huo Group anymore. Anyone who likes him can jump off a building. He can just live in the Civil Affairs Bureau and get divorced and married every day!"
