Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Banquet, Jealous Rivalry1

Su Ruanruan was startled.

She covered herself.

Bao Jingyan asked her softly, "I heard you’re attending the banquet with Bao Ziqi next week?"

Su Ruanruan finished bathing, gently wiping her body.

She asked, "Did Sister Fu tell you, or did Housekeeper Wang let it slip?"

Bao Jingyan chuckled, "Does it make a difference?"

Su Ruanruan felt somewhat annoyed and didn’t pay him any attention.

After a while, she finally spoke seriously, "It’s not just me and Bao Ziqi going."

She glanced at him, "If you’re worried, you can come along too."

Bao Jingyan admired the way she dressed, while speaking, "There’s nothing to worry about."

He knew Su Ruanruan’s temperament quite well.

She was in his bed.

What was there to worry about?

Su Ruanruan stepped out of the bathroom.

She looked stunning.

Her long black hair was still damp, draped over her shoulders, and her small oval face was beautiful and delicate, her eyes sparkling.

She wore a loose white bathrobe tied at the waist, which Bao Jingyan could easily grasp with one hand.

He made her lie across his legs and blow-dried her hair for her.

Recently fatigued, Su Ruanruan felt sleepy as she relaxed.

Half-clinging to him, she murmured half-asleep, "Today, I saw Mu Qun."

"Hmm?" Bao Jingyan remained unfazed.

"He didn’t look good! There was blood on him." Su Ruanruan slightly opened her eyelids, showing a cuteness similar to her age, "Bao Jingyan, did you do it?"

Bao Jingyan didn’t hide it from her and hummed an acknowledgment with a nod.

Su Ruanruan didn’t say anything more.

She fell asleep.

Bao Jingyan looked down at his little girl...

Her features were picturesque, her skin white and porcelain-like.

But there was a faint shadow under her eyes.

She was indeed exhausted!

Bao Jingyan carried her to the bed and watched her for a long while before gently kissing her forehead.

"Goodnight, Ruanruan."

...

In the following days, Su Ruanruan was very busy.

She would stay in the laboratory all day and not return to the villa until well past midnight.

But no matter how late, Bao Jingyan would wait for her.

He’d prepare a bowl of noodles for her, a warm cup of milk.

They resembled a little married couple.

Su Ruanruan didn’t know whether she truly liked him or had given up resisting; she accepted his kindness and even those things she once thought were unclean.

...

Five days later, Jiangcheng Charity Banquet.

A gathering of celebrities.

Bao Mingyuan and his wife, along with Bao Ziqi and Su Ruanruan, arrived in full regalia. Su Ruanruan was now a celebrity in Jiangcheng and naturally became the center of attention.

Upon her arrival, the ladies and socialites of Jiangcheng rushed to get acquainted, with her taking the limelight.

Bao Ziqi, always by her side.

Though his expression was calm, he didn’t show any signs of impatience.

People whispered discussions: Second Young Master Bao really likes Miss Su!

These gossips reached Su Qionglin’s ears.

She watched Su Ruanruan and Bao Ziqi stand side by side, with Bao Ziqi frequently positioning himself protectively beside Su Ruanruan, looking every bit the gallant escort.

She felt jealous and resentful.

What a hypocrite Su Ruanruan was!

She claimed she would never marry Ziqi, but now she was publicly showing off as a couple.

Just as Su Qionglin was about to approach, lord Mu Jiu arrived.

These days, lord Mu Jiu was at odds with the Bao Family.

All because of Su Ruanruan!

Lord Mu Jiu was a man who lived on the edge, but not only could he not take advantage against Bao Jingyan, he ended up being embarrassingly outmaneuvered.

For today’s encounter, lord Mu Jiu had shaved and changed into a black velvet tuxedo.

Dashing and handsome, it masked much of his fierce demeanor!

He eyed the Bao Family from afar.

Bao Mingyuan looked extremely happy.

Lord Mu Jiu sneered in his heart: Bao Mingyuan is blind! It’s clearly Bao Jingyan who has an affair with Su Ruanruan!

However, this Second Young Master Bao is also a thorn in the eye!
