Chapter 791: Chapter 791: Take Me to See Shen Mianmian

After leaving He Nan’s office, Ruan Yiqian thought it over and, with a firm press on the accelerator, went directly to Cheng Feiyang’s house.

"Take me to see Shen Mianmian."

"Brother Yiqian, you’re not going to cause trouble for Shen Mianmian as well, are you?" Cheng Feiyang was reluctant to take him there; he felt that so many people ganging up on an orphan was rather disgraceful.

He really disdained doing such a thing.

"Don’t worry, I just want to talk to her for a bit, and I won’t let my family disturb her studies," Ruan Yiqian said indifferently.

Cheng Feiyang breathed a sigh of relief, "That’s good."

It seemed that Ruan Yiqian had managed to persuade his uncle’s family.

He took Ruan Yiqian to the door of Shen Mianmian’s house, and then said, "Brother Yiqian, this is where Shen Mianmian lives. You knock on the door yourself! I’m not going in—They don’t like to see me, and I don’t want to see Yang Xiaoxi’s meddlesome face either."

"Thanks for the trouble."

Once Cheng Feiyang left, Ruan Yiqian raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Brother Ruan, why are you here?" It was Shen Mianmian who opened the door; she was somewhat surprised to see Ruan Yiqian but quickly figured out why.

He was most likely here because of the issue with Cheng Xining; her intuition told her that Ruan Yiqian was probably here to dissuade her.

"Mianmian, I’d like to have a word with you, if that’s okay?" Ruan Yiqian’s tone was casual, as if he really had just come over for a chat.

"Please come in."

Shen Mianmian gestured for him to enter and then closed the front door. The weather had cooled down, Yang Xiaoxi liked to sleep in, and at the moment, she was still inside and hadn’t come out. Shen Mianmian poured two cups of tea on the stone table and said indifferently, "Brother Ruan, if there’s something you want to say, just say it!"

Both knew well that Ruan Yiqian had come over for a talk, so there was no need for beating around the bush.

Seeing Shen Mianmian so straightforward, Ruan Yiqian didn’t delay, "Mianmian, I have urgent matters that I need to attend to back in Licheng, and since you’re also straightforward, I’ll skip the niceties and state my purpose directly. If any of my words upset you, please be understanding."

Shen Mianmian smiled a little and said, "Brother Ruan, I think if you say something that makes me unhappy, it indicates that your visit isn’t about what I’d like to hear. Since that’s the case, whether I’m understanding or not doesn’t really matter."

Ruan Yiqian chuckled softly, "No wonder Xiaonan likes you—you really are more intelligent than Xining and know how to speak."

A thought flickered in Shen Mianmian’s mind; he indeed knew about her relationship with Brother He.

Seeming to see through her thoughts, he said, "Before coming here, I saw Xiaonan, and he acknowledged that you two are in a relationship."

Shen Mianmian pursed her lips slightly, and said, "So?"

"Mianmian, I know you’re a smart girl, and Xiaonan does genuinely like you, but don’t you think that you and Xiaonan are not a match in terms of social status?"

Before Shen Mianmian could speak, Ruan Yiqian continued, "I know you ranked first in the province and are a student of Beijing University—very impressive—but your being impressive alone proves nothing. Grandpa He and Aunt Fu won’t agree to you joining the family. The path you and Xiaonan will have to walk together will be very difficult."

"I know." Shen Mianmian listened quietly until he finished, not getting angry, because what Ruan Yiqian said was the truth. She smiled a bit and said softly, "I thought that the first person to come talk to me about this would be Aunt Fu. I didn’t expect it to be you."

Ruan Yiqian felt a bit embarrassed by her words, "I’ve overstepped, I really shouldn’t interfere."
