Moonlight falls into my arms
Chapter 37 Ruan Li is not one of them
Jiang Yuci watched the two's reactions, while Jiang's father pulled Jiang's mother aside, saying, "Why are you getting angry with the child? Be careful not to scare him."
"And you too." Jiang's father glanced at Jiang Yuci. "You knew perfectly well what he wanted to tell you when he came back this time, so why did you bring an outsider back?"
Ruan Li tightened her grip on Jiang Yuci's wrist.
Jiang Yuci took a step to the side, completely hiding Ruan Li behind him.
"Knowing what?" He lowered his eyes slightly. "I just came back to wish you a happy birthday."
"You should resign from the hospital immediately and take over the company. I can have a happy birthday without you having to say a word."
Jiang's mother brushed away Jiang's father's hand and stood in front of Jiang Yuci: "All the education I gave you since you were little was for nothing. If I had known you..."
"Don't talk nonsense." Jiang's father pulled her back. "Give him some more time."
"Yan Hui, see your brother out." Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was getting more and more tense, and not wanting the birthday banquet to turn into a mess, Jiang's father simply told Jiang Yan Hui to call the person out.
"Don't come back to see me as long as you're in the hospital!" Jiang's mother closed her eyes.
Jiang's father patted her back and said, "You always have to make things so tense. Do you really want him to never come back for the rest of his life?"
"If he had been more obedient, things wouldn't have turned out like this."
Jiang Yan turned around and saw Jiang Yu off.
Ruan Li felt that she and Jiang Yuci were not sent out, but rather kicked out.
The moment she stepped out the door, a gust of cold wind hit her face, and Ruan Li covered her nose and sneezed.
Jiang Yanhui very gentlemanly took off his suit jacket and put it on Ruan Li.
"It's cold, put these on first."
"No." Ruan Li shrugged, and her neatly pressed suit fell to the ground.
She took Jiang Yuci's hand. "Let's go."
As the two walked down the steps, Jiang Yan said, "Brother, you're really stubborn."
Whether it's becoming a doctor or liking that person.
They're all equally stubborn to the end.
Ruan Li took Jiang Yuci's hands and walked forward, saying, "Come on, let's go home."
Like a child who just wants to get home quickly, throwing a tantrum at their parents.
Jiang Yuci's gloomy mood eased a bit, and he took a few steps forward.
But as he walked forward, he looked back a few times.
Jiang Yan replied that his mother asked him to come back, but the timing was wrong, and his parents were very surprised when they saw him.
Clearly, neither of them had expected him to come.
He was just an uninvited guest who ruined a perfectly good birthday party.
Ruan Li pulled Jiang Yuci into the car, and the two sat quietly inside the unlit car.
There is no action.
The night was quiet, and it was pitch black outside, with only a few warm yellow lights shining from afar.
It is the only bright star in the thick darkness of night.
"Achoo!" Ruan Li covered her nose and lunged forward.
A sneeze broke the long silence.
She kept covering her nose and secretly glanced in Jiang Yuci's direction.
"Excuse me......"
She disturbed his sadness.
Jiang Yuci was actually in a better mood than before, and in the darkness, his quiet eyes looked at Ruan Li.
"You have nothing to do with them." This is a statement.
From beginning to end, Ruan Li had no idea what Jiang Yuci was talking about.
She nodded blankly, "Okay, now you're the boss, whatever you say goes."
Jiang Yuci chuckled softly, not even knowing what she was laughing at.
My heavy heart felt a little lighter; at least I knew she wasn't there to lie to me.
But it seems there's no longer an excuse to keep her.
As Jiang Yuci moved, the lights inside the car came on, and the interior gradually warmed up.
Ruan Li placed her hand on the air conditioner vent to relieve the stiffness in her hand.
"I'm sorry," Jiang Yuci said suddenly.
Ruan Li found him baffling: "Why are you apologizing again?"
She thought about it carefully and didn't feel that Jiang Yuci had done anything to wrong her.
Jiang Yuci looked at her without saying anything.
Actually, I brought her here on purpose today.
He had originally intended to end their absurd and ambiguous relationship tonight.
Ruan Li was unaware of these things.
All she knew was that Jiang Yuci had taken her to eat a delicious steak and even cut it for her.
As for the little grievances he suffered, they were nothing compared to the fact that Jiang Yuci was scolded even more severely.
Ruan Li suddenly burst out laughing, a loud "pfft," and laughed uncontrollably, her shoulders shaking.
Jiang Yuci looked at her, and Ruan Li raised her head slightly: "Jiang Yuci, do you think we're like those people who didn't do well on a test and got called to the homeroom teacher's office to get scolded?"
Ruan Li laughed again: "Every time I go to get scolded alone, I get very worried and nervous. But if someone goes with me to get scolded, I don't care so much. It's not just me who's embarrassed. I'll also secretly remember who the teacher scolds the most and who says the most hurtful things. After we leave the office, we start laughing at each other. That way, a sad thing isn't so sad anymore."
Ruan Li gently placed her palm on his head, "So, are you feeling any better today?"
Her soft palms pressed against his black hair, which felt a little prickly and itchy, and she couldn't help but rub them a couple more times.
Jiang Yuci's dark eyes were brightened by the light from the car wall, and the faint light touched their features, adding a touch of warmth.
"So, don't be sad. Tell me first, what's the name of that steak?" Ruan Li swallowed, her eyes bright.
Jiang Yu resigned: "......"
"Seriously! It's so delicious! I think it's the best I've ever eaten. I want to eat it again when I make money."
"One thousand and three."
"what?"
Jiang Yu reiterated: "One thousand three hundred and thirty per share."
Ruan Li's eyes widened slightly. "I... I only spent over two thousand tonight? And it was such a small piece? I'm not even full! And it was only two thousand six!"
Ruan Li stared and shook her head: "Actually, it's just so-so. It's just a little better than regular steak in terms of texture, finer, more fragrant, and more tender. I can't find any other advantages, and it's so expensive."
Ruan Li started reading again, "How can there be such an expensive steak? The key is, it's such a small piece. After you cut it for me, there will only be five small pieces per serving."
Ruan Li placed her hands on his forearms, "That means one bite costs several hundred yuan."
She leaned back as if she was about to faint from anger: "I was saying we'd go eat there another time, what's the point of eating here? We can't afford it."
Jiang Yuci's lips curved into a slight smile, as if all the heartbreaking things from before had vanished.
Listening to the people around him talking, he thought it was pretty good.
At least, he can afford the steak she wants to eat.
She asked for expensive steak, but I could buy it for her anytime.
"There are even more expensive ones, do you want to try them?" Jiang Yuci asked her while driving.
Ruan Li felt a pang of heartache when she thought about the price: "But if someone is going to treat me to it for free, of course I can try it."
"Yes, please have some."
