Chapter 667: Chapter 667 Ruan Yiqian 2

Cheng Xining looked at He Nan with a face full of anticipation. With Brother Nan back in Beijing, she could see him more often.

Only with Brother Nan under her watch could she prevent those little girls with ulterior motives from approaching him.

"I won’t be living in Beijing long-term within the next three years; I will go back to visit," He Nan said emotionlessly.

Ruan Yiqian frowned slightly, seeming dissatisfied with his answer. "Grandfather He is getting on in years, and he always talks about you in front of us. It’s not a long-term solution for you to be away all the time. After all, Beijing is your home, and since the business here is stable, there’s no need for you to stay here all the time."

"Let’s talk about these things later!" He Nan ended the topic directly.

Ruan Yiqian was not a man of many words either; he knew when to stop. After a moment of silence, He Nan took him to the study while Shen Mianmian and Cheng Xining watched TV in the living room.

Cheng Xining started to grill Shen Mianmian about whom He Nan went to visit and with whom he dined. After asking in detail, she let Shen Mianmian watch TV in peace.

In the study, Ruan Yiqian and He Nan were not idle either. They talked about some business matters until Ruan Yiqian suddenly brought up another issue.

"I have some good news for you."

"?" He Nan raised an eyebrow at him.

Ruan Yiqian said, "I’ve found some information about my sister. She’s been sold to various people, and it seems she was sold to Licheng. But the specific details of where she was sold have yet to be found. I’ve contacted the local police here, and they are helping with the investigation. If things go well, we should have accurate information soon."

As he said this, he suddenly joked with He Nan, "If I really find my sister, you’ll have to wait a few more years, as she should be only seventeen this year, not yet of marriageable age."

He Nan frowned, "Ruan Yiqian."

Clearly, he didn’t appreciate the joke. It was just a casual remark made by the older generation, and he had no intention of fulfilling it.

"What?" Ruan Yiqian teased, "My sister isn’t good enough for you? With my looks, my sister won’t be bad-looking either."

"Do you think you’re funny?" He Nan looked at him.

"Alright, I’ll stop joking," Ruan Yiqian said seriously. "He Nan, give me an honest answer. Do you really have no feelings for Xining? Although Xining’s temper might be spoiled from being pampered, she isn’t bad in other respects. She’s liked you since she was young. Won’t you consider it?"

"If you have time to talk about this, you’d better think about how to find your sister," He Nan said.

Ruan Yiqian responded with resignation, "I talk to you about my sister, and you say I have cold humor. I discuss marriage with you, and you tell me to go find my sister."

Changing the subject, he added, "I’ll tell you, if I see my sister, I’ll be able to recognize her in an instant."

"Let’s hope so," He Nan replied.

After spending a couple of hours in the study, He Nan implied that it was time for Ruan Yiqian to leave, but Ruan Yiqian stated outright that he was tired from a day of driving and would leave the next day.

He Nan didn’t object. In the evening, he cooked a table full of dishes. Ruan Yiqian remarked that after knowing He Nan for over twenty years, it was the first time he had eaten his cooking, and he could now die without regrets.

Shen Mianmian barely spoke the whole time. Ruan Yiqian was different from Ruan Yiyang; Yiyang was more approachable, but Yiqian was unfathomable, clearly a prominent figure in the business world.

As a little chick still growing her feathers, it was best for her to speak as little as possible.
