Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Bao Mingyuan’s Appreciation

Bao Mingyuan grinned awkwardly, "Nothing can be hidden from the old lady."

After much consideration, he said, "The old lady must be aware of today’s events. Ruanruan is quite capable!"

The old lady lifted her eyelids, "What are you scheming now?"

She said fiercely, "One moment you want her to match with Gu Ze, the next you want to betroth her to Mu Jiu. Do you think I don’t know about these things?"

Bao Mingyuan blushed with shame, "Your son has been foolish."

He gave a signal to Gui Zhi by the side.

Gui Zhi smoothed things over, "Previously, Mingyuan didn’t recognize the true value."

"I knew Aunt Gui would understand me," Bao Mingyuan laughed.

The old lady slapped her son, "Glib-tongued!"

Bao Mingyuan restrained his smile, speaking earnestly, "This is what I think! After me, Jingyan will undoubtedly inherit the reins of Di Jing, but the family... Jingyan’s disposition is too resolute, I’m afraid Ziqi and Jingyuan will have no standing in the future."

He finished speaking and stared intently at the old lady.

The old lady was silent at first, then after a long while she said, "Are you thinking again of having Ruanruan marry Ziqi?"

"Exactly," Bao Mingyuan sighed, "Ruanruan has a gentle nature and has the talent for managing a household! My thought is, let Jingyan handle external affairs, and let Ruanruan manage our home. Wouldn’t that be perfect?"

The old lady laughed out loud, "Mingyuan, you are being foolish! Jingyan and Ruanruan, one handling the outside and the other the inside, others will think they are a married couple."

"How could that be! Ruanruan is marrying Ziqi." Bao Mingyuan grasped the old lady’s hand, "That Su Qionglin is absolutely unacceptable as Bao Family’s daughter-in-law! Her father and Yang Shining are in cahoots, I cannot tolerate her."

The old lady laughed again, "Then you’re setting your sights on Ruanruan? Mingyuan, have you considered whether Ruanruan is willing? She is capable... why should she settle?"

"How is marrying Ziqi settling?" Bao Mingyuan retorted.

The old lady reclined in her chair and rocked slightly, "Ziqi and Qionglin have been intimate. Does Ruanruan not mind?"

"What era are we living in, old lady." Since Bao Mingyuan is a man, he naturally does not mind.

The old lady’s old yet shrewd eyes looked at her son, "This child has her own mind, I think she does care."

Bao Mingyuan was indifferent, "It’s all past before marriage."

"That person is also her older sister." The old lady scoffed, "Mingyuan, I understand your thoughts; you’re always covering for that conniving woman! You worry Jingyan might annihilate everyone in the future, but have you considered whether Ruanruan alone can stop him?"

Bao Mingyuan secretly thought: Why couldn’t she?

But he couldn’t reveal such thoughts, and after chatting casually for a bit more, he left.

However, once he had made up his mind, he would not easily change it.

...

At seven in the evening, the Bao Family’s hall was brilliantly lit.

Bao Mingyuan personally ushered Su Ruanruan to a seat, handing her a glass of red wine, "Ruanruan, you must drink this cup today."

Su Ruanruan smiled lightly, "Uncle, you sound pleased?"

Bao Mingyuan patted her shoulder, "Today you have really made the Bao Family proud! At the hospital, you exposed Yanning Pharmaceutical and crushed Su Yugu utterly! Ruanruan, your uncle is proud of you."

He addressed his wife and children, "Everyone, raise your glasses! Let’s drink to Ruanruan."

Su Ruanruan demurely said, "Uncle, I don’t deserve this."

Bao Jingyuan felt uneasy and immediately said, "Oh dad, it’s just saving two people, it’s not that big of a deal."

Her daughter speaking so thoughtlessly upset Bao Mingyuan, "You save one and show me?"

He then spoke to Mrs. Bao, "Jingyuan is so arrogant and ignorant every day, you need to discipline her well."
