Ruan Qian'an sensed Ran Zhi's questioning gaze and smiled in Ran Zhi's direction.

Then he asked, "What's wrong?"

Ran Zhi: "No...it's nothing."

"Why not just tell him the truth directly? You don't have to be so passive. Isn't it because of misunderstandings that you've gone through so many detours?"

Ruan Qian'an picked up a tissue to wipe her mouth, then said with a smile, "But I've done so many mistakes, I can't be forgiven just by confessing."

"Isn't it?"

Ran Zhi: "At least clear up this biggest misunderstanding first, and then we can make up for the rest little by little."

Ruan Qian'an: "Some things can't be made up for."

"It's better to let him continue to resent me."

Ran Zhi: "This is really too unfair to you. Anyway, I respect your decision and I will keep it a secret for you."

Ruan Qian'an smiled slyly: "Thank you."

"The soup you made is delicious."

Ranzhi: "If you like it, that's good. If you like it, I'll cook it for you every day."

Ruan Qian'an burst out laughing: "That won't be necessary."

Ruan Qian'an moved closer to Ran Zhi, took her arm, and asked, "Stop talking about me, how are things going between you and your boyfriend?"

Ran Zhi laughed and said, "Don't say that, I'm jealous. I've never been so virtuous before, making soup for others every day. Is he having an affair and doesn't want him anymore?"

Ruan Qian'an raised an eyebrow: "Your little boyfriend is quite possessive."

Ran Zhi smiled and said, "At first he said it was just for fun, but I didn't expect him to be so serious."

Ruan Qian'an made an exaggerated expression and distanced herself from Ran Zhi, saying, "You're taking this seriously too?"

Ran Zhi chuckled lightly: "How could I possibly be attracted to that kind of playboy?"

Ruan Qian'an sensed the bitterness in Ran Zhi's tone and said noncommittally, "If that's the case, then you should have broken up with her sooner."

Ran Zhi gave a soft "Mmm," her voice tinged with reluctance as she said, "I know."

Ruan Qian'an: "You can't bear to part with it?"

He then added, "How about we try tying it up?"

Seeing that Ruan Qian'an was speaking so seriously, Ran Zhi forgot to deny it and fell silent for a moment.

......

Ruan Qian'an: "I was just kidding."

Ran Zhi breathed a sigh of relief: "I don't want to go to jail."

Ruan Qian'an: "......."

Ran Zhi looked at Ruan Qian'an, who had suddenly fallen silent, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ruan Qian'an: "It's nothing."

Ran Zhi: "If he's really serious, I'd like to give it a try with him."

"I'm afraid it's just a game of deep affection."

Ruan Qian'an tilted her head slightly in Ran Zhi's direction, momentarily puzzled as to why she would be troubled by such a thing.

Ran Zhi smiled at Ruan Qian'an's expression and said, "What's wrong? Do you think I won't have any worries about relationships?"

Ruan Qian'an: "I just think you're worrying in the wrong direction."

Ran Zhi paused for a moment, then said, "What you said makes sense."

Ran Zhi watched as Ruan Qian'an finished eating and said, "I'm leaving now. I'll make you more soup tomorrow."

Ruan Qian'an: "Okay."

The room fell silent for a moment. As the sky grew darker and darker, the lack of lights in the room made Ruan Qian'an's face grow increasingly somber.

Ruan Qian'an stood up.

Head outside.

Chi Xiao said, "Boss, the car is ready."

Ruan Qian'an: "Mm."

"Let's go."

Huo Jingmo held Xiangxiang anxiously, while Xiangxiang lay listlessly in Huo Jingmo's arms.

Huo Jingmo's eyes showed even more worry, and his anxious heart cried out for Ruan Qian'an!

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

Huo Jingmo strode up to Ruan Qian'an, pointed at her, and said, "What exactly do you want to do!"

With a smile and a gentle tone, Ruan Qian'an said, "What did I do?"

"Isn't this coming?"

Huo Jingmo: "You!"

He took a deep breath and said, "What should we do?"

Ruan Qian'an said with a smile, "Don't worry, as long as I'm by your side, that's enough."

Huo Jingmo was somewhat incredulous. He had tried so many methods without success, and there seemed to be no solution. How could something be solved so easily?

"Is it that simple?"

Ruan Qian'an picked Xiangxiang up from Huo Jingmo's arms, sat on the sofa, and placed Xiangxiang on her lap.

Huo Jingmo looked at Xiangxiang, whose complexion had visibly improved, with suspicion.

He sighed and sat back down on the carpet.

Ruan Qian'an looked at Huo Jingmo with great interest, while the heating in the room was on full blast.

He sat there cross-legged, wearing the same cute and adorable little fish outfit as Xiangxiang, looking sullen.

The truth is that Huo Jingmo sat on the carpet, glaring at Ruan Qian'an with a look that was anything but cute.

Ruan Qian'an rested her chin on her hand and looked at Huo Jingmo. Xiangxiang, who was fast asleep in Ruan Qian'an's arms, was no longer as listless as before.

After Xiangxiang fell asleep, Huo Jingmo gently carried her back into his arms, went into the bedroom, and put her back in her crib.

He came out and said to Ruan Qian'an, "You can leave now."

Ruan Qian'an crossed her legs and rested her chin on her hand: "Eh?"

With a hint of disbelief: "You just let me come back like that? Not even let me have a cup of tea or a meal?"

Huo Jingmo had already opened the door at this moment: "Get out." He didn't waste any more words.

Ruan Qian'an remained seated, determined not to take a single step. Just then, someone entered from outside.

As if she had never noticed the tense atmosphere inside, she said, "I'm still worried about Xiangxiang, so I'm coming over to check."

Seeing Ruan Qian'an say to her, "Can you please stop bothering Huo Jingmo?"

Ruan Qian'an raised an eyebrow and gestured in Huo Jingmo's direction, saying, "Are you sure you don't want me to bother you?"

Huo Jingmo knew what Ruan Qian'an meant and cursed, "Shameless."

Ruan Qian'an chuckled and said, "I'll take that as a compliment."

Huo Jingmo: "Get out of here now."

Ruan Qian'an shrugged and refused, "No."

Seeing this, Chen Jue angrily said, "How can you be so shameless? President Huo has already told you to get out!"

Ruan Qian'an silently gazed in Chen Jue's direction.

Huo Jingmo stopped Chen Jue from speaking: "Chen Jue!"

"Xiangxiang is alright now. If there's nothing else, you can go ahead."

Chen Jue glanced angrily in Huo Jingmo's direction, but her eyes lit up instantly as she said, "You've changed into the clothes I bought for you."

Then she scratched her cheek a little awkwardly and said, "Actually, I have the same one too."

"Ah."

"Miss Chen, don't you think you're being too attentive to a married man?"

Chen Jue: "So what? It was just an accident."

Ruan Qian'an said with a smile, "What a big surprise."

Huo Jingmo glanced at Chen Jue coldly, but did not explain the misunderstanding.

He said, "Can you leave now?"

Ruan Qian'an: "If she's not leaving, why should I? I have every right to leave."

Just as Chen Jue was about to retort, Huo Jingmo said impatiently, "Chen Jue, get out."

Chen Jue immediately turned off the engine and walked outside. Ruan Qian'an, on the other hand, looked smug.
