But from her observations over the past two months, she hadnāt seen him have any intimate contact with any woman at all, and she thought he was deliberately lying to her just to make her back off.
Though she was somewhat displeased, deep down she felt that such a man was truly worth entrusting her heart to, different from all those she had encountered before, who wouldnāt come for her family background.
Who would have thought heād suddenly bring over someone called "Yang Xiaona" to meet her, not only showing her a tender and indulgent side of him but also provoking her heart condition with this "Yang Xiaonaās" attitude.
Her face darkened as she took several deep breaths and finally had to look at Ruan Chi: "Ruan Chi, are you just going to watch and do nothing?"
Ruan Chi raised an eyebrow, said nothing at first, and instead cut up the steak he had just ordered for Ruan Jiaojiao piece by piece, then placed it in front of her, watching her frown as she ate, couldnāt help but smile indulgently again, and said softly, "Eat a little to fill your stomach, and later Iāll take you to have what you like."
In the Ruan Family, all nine brothers were quite adept at taking care of Ruan Jiaojiao, so in Dai Anās view, all of this seemed so natural.
But it was precisely this naturalness that made her feel painfully gutted!
However, no matter how much it hurt, it couldnāt compare to what Ruan Chi said next.
Only after taking care of Ruan Jiaojiao did Ruan Chi finally lift his head to cast his gaze toward her and said, "Miss Dai, Xiaona is still very young; if she said something inappropriate, please bear with her a little. Moreover, from start to finish, weāre only in an employment relationship, and I made it clear from the beginning that I have a girlfriend. Itās you who didnāt believe it, and thatās why I brought her out to meet you now."
If it wasnāt completely necessary, Ruan Chi wouldnāt want to involve his sister, but recently, Dai An had been persistently clinging to him, ignoring all explanations as if she didnāt understand them.
Dai An was so irritated by Ruan Chiās statement that her chest heaved up and down, and for a long moment, she couldnāt string words together.
Finally, as if she thought of something, her expression changed, and she asked with a few inexplicable undertones: "Regarding your cooperation with my daddy this time, I remember you havenāt received the commission yet. Arenāt you afraid Iāll say something to my daddy?"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Chi put down the knife and fork in his hands, elegantly used a napkin to wipe his mouth, and smiled: "Afraid of what? This commission is mine entirely lawfully and legitimately, Miss Dai, are you sure you want to discuss this with a lawyer?"
Dai Anās face turned ugly with impressive speed, and she suddenly stood up from the chair, seemingly about to do something with the cup beside the table, but Ruan Jiaojiao moved faster, picking up the pitcher of lemon water in front of her, glaring at her: "You splash, and Iāll give you the whole pitcher!"
The final result was that Dai An practically ran out of the western restaurant in fury.
Ruan Jiaojiao watched her running figure with a pursed lip, putting the pitcher back on the table, and snorted: "When I played the villainous cannon fodder character, you didnāt even know where you were!" As if splashing water was some major event, sheās definitely watched too many TV dramas!
"What villainous cannon fodder character?" Ruan Chi asked, amused, looking at the fierce Ruan Jiaojiao and listening to the new term that popped out of her mouth.
Ruan Jiaojiao laughed it off: "Nothing, itās just something I read in a novel a few days ago, just a passing comment. Chi-ge, letās change places to eat, this isnāt really good, but donāt waste this steak either, we can pack it to take back for Rou Rou and Xiaoxue to eat."
