Ruan Xingchen raised her eyes, with a hint of sarcasm in them, and looked at him quietly without saying a word.

Cheng Min didn't care about much and stared at her and said, "Cousin, thank you for bailing us out. I really troubled you with what happened today. Wei Si and I will treat you to a meal some other day to express our gratitude."

"Cheng Min?"

Raising his head in confusion, Ruan Weisi's long eyelashes were wet, and he looked at him with tears on his face, his eyes full of shock and rejection.

Ruan Xingchen was willing to help because she begged and admitted her mistakes.

She wished she would never see Ruan Xingchen again and completely forget everything that had happened today. How could he be willing to treat her to a meal and express his gratitude to her solemnly?

She had begged him so much before Ruan Xingchen was willing to help. What was there to thank him for?

She didn't understand. Didn't Cheng Min know how sad she was? Why did he say such things?

However, Cheng Min, who has always been considerate and gentle, always able to perceive her subtle emotions in time and take good care of her, now has no time to take care of her subtle emotions.

He emphasized the pronunciation of "we" and "together," making the hint clear. He stared at Ruan Xingchen, waiting for her answer.

"There's no need to treat me to a meal."

Ruan Xingchen laughed.

She folded her arms, looked back frankly, and a smile of pleasure appeared on her red lips as she said, "Even if Mr. Cheng wants to, I'm afraid Miss Ruan won't be willing. What's more—"

She paused, then said softly with a half-smile, "I just helped Miss Ruan with the bail procedures. I didn't do anything for Mr. Cheng, so I don't deserve Mr. Cheng's gratitude."

Cheng Min's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Sure enough, his hunch came true.

From the beginning to the end, Ruan Xingchen never thought of helping him with the bail procedures. If he hadn't noticed something was wrong and asked, she might have bailed Ruan Weisi out and just left him alone.

This woman...

He clenched his fists, feeling a chill in his heart.

Hiding the darkness in his eyes, he forced a smile and said, "Cousin, we are all relatives. Now that you're here, can you bear to see me stay in the police station any longer?"

He sighed sadly and whispered, "My father passed away long ago, my mother is in prison now, and even Yiyi died at a young age... If I hadn't really had no other choice, I wouldn't beg my cousin's wife for help. Please help me, cousin."

He smiled bitterly, his face full of helplessness.

Ruan Xingchen didn't feel sorry for him.

This is a cold-hearted wolf. He can even treat his own mother and biological sister with such cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness that it is terrifying.

For such a person, the so-called pity or other emotions are just his disguise, and they are all things that can be exploited.

If you believe him, you will be on the verge of an irretrievable situation. You never know when he will suddenly attack you and bite your throat off.

"Relatives or not, I've only been married into the Huo family for a little over a year, so I'm not familiar with Mr. Cheng."

With a faint smile on her lips, Ruan Xingchen spoke in a polite yet distant tone, "What's more, Mr. Cheng is already married. How can you say he has no choice? From what I heard, Mr. Fan and Mrs. Fan treat Mr. Cheng as their own son..."

She laughed, looked over deliberately, and asked, "Mr. Cheng, do you need me to help call and notify Mr. Fan and Mrs. Fan?"

"no need."

Cheng Min clenched his teeth and squeezed out three words from between his teeth.

He went to so much trouble just to prevent Mr. Fan and Mrs. Fan from knowing what happened today.

If I call them, won’t all my efforts be in vain?

His heart felt cold, but his face showed a bit of loss and embarrassment. He glanced at Ruan Weisi lightly.

He said softly and softly, "Wei Si, go out first. Don't worry about me. It's okay for me. I'll think of a way."

As he spoke, he forced a smile, raised his hand to grab Ruan Weisi's hand and patted it soothingly, lowering his voice and saying: "Don't worry about me, as long as you are okay, I will be relieved."

"No, how could I leave you alone?"

Ruan Weisi subconsciously grabbed his hand and shook his head to refuse.

Now, she and Cheng Min rely on each other. What kind of relationship is more impressive than sharing hardships?

Since she has chosen Cheng Min, she must not abandon him this time.

What's more, she couldn't bear to leave such a gentle and affectionate Cheng Min alone in the police station and face an unknown future.

Her eyes were red as she looked at Ruan Xingchen with determination and said anxiously, "Bail out Cheng Min as well. Don't you just want me to beg you? At worst, I'll beg you again. Please don't ignore Cheng Min."

Anyway, I have already lost face once, so I don’t care if I lose face again.

Seeing her like this, Ruan Xingchen raised his eyebrows with interest.

She really didn't expect that Ruan Weisi could go to such lengths for Cheng Min.

Could it be that she now realizes that Cheng Min is her true love?

It's a bit absurd.

It was so difficult when I begged her for my own sake, but when I begged her for Cheng Min, I felt no more psychological burden.

"There's nothing wrong with me, why do you need me to beg you?"

She raised her chin lazily, her tone nonchalant, and said, "Mr. Cheng will handle his own affairs. I'm not interested."

“How could you do this!?”

Ruan Weisi was furious.

But she had suffered enough of a lesson today and didn't dare to say anything too harsh. She could only stare at Ruan Xingchen, feeling unwilling.

"What does my cousin-in-law want in order to get me out on bail as well?"

Cheng Min suddenly raised his head, stared at her straight, and said in a deep voice: "Cousin, please tell me the conditions!"

Isn't he in a difficult situation now?

This is his best choice.

"Finally, you stopped hiding behind a woman and let this idiot charge into battle for you?"

Seeing the resolute coldness in his eyes, Ruan Xingchen couldn't help but laugh.

Her clear eyes seemed to be able to see through all disguises. With a clear understanding, she smiled and said, "Mr. Cheng is really a master at playing with people's hearts. He just likes to hide behind women and play with other people's feelings. This behavior is worse than that of an animal. Mr. Cheng said so, is it?"

Cheng Min's face looked a little ugly. He stared at her solemnly and said, "I don't know what my cousin is talking about."

His disguise has always been flawless, and as long as he wants, it is difficult for anyone to have a bad impression of him.

Ruan Xingchen was the only exception. It seemed that no matter how he behaved or what methods he used to show his harmlessness and kindness, it was of no use to her.

From the first time they met, she had no qualms about showing her dislike for him, and her eyes always seemed to see through all the secrets.

It makes people feel inexplicably cold in their hearts.

Ruan Xingchen looked him up and down, curled the corners of his lips, and said calmly: "Mr. Cheng said he doesn't know, then he doesn't know!"
