Chapter 820: Chapter 820: You’re overreaching now.

He Nan didn’t go home but went straight to Ruan Yiqian’s house. Ruan Lingyu was already resting, and only Ruan Yiqian was sitting in the living room watching TV, seemingly waiting for him.

He Nan didn’t stand on ceremony; upon arrival, he directly sat on the sofa in the living room.

He didn’t beat around the bush and said directly, "Speak!"

Ruan Yiqian was about to speak when he heard him say again, "What did you tell Mianmian?"

Although Shen Mianmian didn’t say anything, He Nan was certain that whatever was troubling her heart must have been something Ruan Yiqian said in front of her. She didn’t want to tell him, and He Nan didn’t force her.

But that didn’t mean he wouldn’t inquire into her matters.

Since she didn’t want to talk about it, he would go to the source of the issue.

Ruan Yiqian, feeling a bit guilty, his gaze flickered slightly and he said, "I indeed said some unfavorable things in front of Mianmian before. I regret it now, which is why I went to see her with fruits, intending to apologize."

He Nan frowned, his voice deepened, "What did you say?"

"I said you two weren’t suited for each other, said you and Xining were a better match, and mentioned some things about Mianmian." Ruan Yiqian was not hiding anything and laid out everything he had said that day; in fact, he regretted it, but since the words were already out, regret was useless. All he could do was try his best to make amends to Shen Mianmian.

"Ruan Yiqian, you’re overstepping your bounds," He Nan’s tone was icy cold. Even though Ruan Yiqian had been his friend since childhood, it didn’t give him the right to meddle in his and Shen Mianmian’s relationship.

"I was wrong, I apologize." Ruan Yiqian’s attitude was very sincere; he truly realized his mistake.

"Shen Mianmian is my bottom line. I don’t want this to happen again."

He Nan said.

Previously, hearing how well He Nan treated Shen Mianmian and how much he cared for her, even confronting Ruan Lingyu for her, Ruan Yiqian was disapproving. But now, seeing him protect Shen Mianmian so vehemently, Ruan Yiqian was not only not angry but felt particularly reassured.

"You can rest assured, I won’t obstruct your affairs in the future, not just that, I won’t let others obstruct you either. I now think you and Mianmian are well-matched. Mianmian is smart and resourceful, and you’re cunning—perfectly matched."

He Nan glanced at him disapprovingly. Being clever as he was, he immediately guessed the reason for Ruan Yiqian’s sudden change of attitude.

"Is the investigation result in Licheng related to Mianmian?"

Ruan Yiqian hadn’t answered yet, but he smiled first. "Xiaonan, indeed nothing can be hidden from your eyes, you guessed right, Mianmian indeed is related to Mianmian."

He Nan’s gaze turned icy, waiting for him to continue.

"It’s sort of a coincidence. The police were investigating another child kidnapping case and someone had seen Mianmian running down the mountain years ago. As she looked like a girl, they found her troublesome and not profitable to sell, and she was also a bit injured, so they didn’t bother with her. Later, about a year later, she was seen in the town with Shen Jianhua, but due to the long interval, no one could verify that Mianmian was the child adopted by the blind man, so a DNA test is still needed to know whether Mianmian is indeed Mianmian,"

At this point, even the usually calm and composed Ruan Yiqian couldn’t help but get a bit excited.

"Xiaonan, although the DNA test hasn’t been done yet, I am almost certain that Mianmian is indeed Mianmian. Do you remember that back in Licheng, I inquired about Mianmian’s background? I felt she had my mother’s shadow, so I suspected she might be Mianmian."
