Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Mr. Ruan Arrives
Ruan Hongzhuang knew that Shen Siyuan had a Storage Space, but this was the first time she directly experienced its magic so intuitively.
Shen Siyuan had lived in this rental place for several years, and over time, he had accumulated quite a number of belongings.
There were clothes and shoes, of course, but also pots and pans, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and other items.
The largest items were Shen Siyuan’s computer, computer desk, and chair.
Last night, Ruan Hongzhuang wanted to tidy up a bit, but Shen Siyuan stopped her, saying there was no need for such trouble.
Now she finally understood what he meant; anything Shen Siyuan touched with his fingertips would instantly disappear.
In just a few breaths, the room, which had been somewhat cramped, became emptily spacious.
All that was left in the room were the refrigerator, air conditioner, washing machine, sofa, wardrobe, and bed.
These belonged to the landlord and could not be taken, and since Shen Siyuan hadn’t ended his lease, he would have to wait until the end of the month.
Looking at this house where he had lived for several years, now empty, there was a faint sense of reluctance in Shen Siyuan’s heart.
But he quickly adjusted his mood and turned to Ruan Hongzhuang, signaling it was time to leave.
Ruan Hongzhuang seemed to notice the trace of reluctance in Shen Siyuan’s eyes and said with a smile, "If you really can’t bear to leave it, I can buy it from the landlord."
Shen Siyuan was momentarily startled by her unconventional words.
Nevertheless, he shook his head.
"It’s unnecessary, I will probably forget about this place soon. Maybe I’ll think about it occasionally, but it’s not likely I’ll come back to live here."
Life is like that—new things always replace the old, and old things are most beautiful when they remain in memory.
Hearing this, Ruan Hongzhuang didn’t say much more. When they reached downstairs, Shen Siyuan realized she had driven her Mercedes SUV last night, not her red Ferrari sports car.
"I thought we could use the bigger space in this car to move some stuff, but it turned out to be completely unnecessary, and my mom drove off with the sports car."
"By the way, where did Auntie go? Is she coming over today?" Shen Siyuan asked casually.
"She went to pick up my dad. But she will definitely come over since you are moving today."
"Oh, is Uncle coming over as well? There will probably be quite a few people at lunch, Duoduo’s family will definitely come too, we need to find a restaurant."
"Don’t worry about these things, I’ve already prepared everything," Ruan Hongzhuang said with a beaming smile.
Shen Siyuan gave her a look and didn’t say much more. He was still looking forward to Ruan Hongzhuang’s arrangements for the day.
Especially the new house, he wondered how she had decorated it.
Although Bin Hai was not very large, it was quite long, built along the coastline, so they drove for more than an hour.
By the time they arrived at Sea Breeze District, the sun was already high in the sky. Fortunately, today was Saturday, and there was no traffic jam on the roads; otherwise, it would probably take much longer.
At this time, Duoduo was clinging to the balcony rail, standing on tiptoes, looking in the direction of the Coastal Highway.
Lin Jianming stood behind her and asked with a smile, "Have they arrived?"
"They’re here, they’re here..."
Lin Jianming looked towards the Coastal Highway outside the district but couldn’t see anything.
Of course, Duoduo didn’t see anything either; as a Fan Soul, she was just sensing Shen Siyuan’s position.
Duoduo turned and ran inside.
"Mommy, Mommy..."
"What’s the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?" Song Qingwei came out.
"Where’s the gift I prepared for Brother? Where is it, where is it..." The little one bounced around, seemingly eager.
It turned out that to celebrate Shen Siyuan’s housewarming, Lin Jianming and his wife had prepared a housewarming gift.
Duoduo, knowing this, clamored to buy a gift for her brother as well, so Lin Jianming and his wife indulged her wish.
"It’s on the table over there."
Song Qingwei pointed to a table nearby, which had several things placed on it.
Duoduo ran over and started standing on tiptoes again, rummaging through the items on the table.
Actually, apart from not eating, drinking, or sleeping, Duoduo was no different from a normal child.
Mischievous and playful, rolling around and lounging, she would stand on tiptoes to reach for things. With her around, the house was always filled with laughter.
Originally, the couple worried about their age and their energy to take care of a child, but Shen Siyuan’s small Elixir Pill completely solved all their problems.
Now, they felt energetic every day.
Before, they just wanted to stay at home and go nowhere, reluctant to move at all.
But now, they yearned for the outside world and wanted to try everything, as if they were young again, yearning for everything.
Thus, their gratitude towards Shen Siyuan was truly from the bottom of their hearts; no matter how many gifts or items they sent, they could not express their appreciation.
Meanwhile, at another location, Jiang Yingxue saw her husband Ruan Xiangqian dragging a suitcase, coming out of the airport terminal.
Ruan Xiangqian is already fifty-four this year. Although he’s not old, he’s approaching sixty, and there’s no way he can pass for young.
Although his hair is still black, it looks a little sparse and thin, and his figure has become somewhat obese and pudgy, his oily face sporting a large pair of black-framed glasses.
Even though he walks with a dynamic stride and has an extraordinary demeanor, he still can’t hide the senility that clings to him.
He knew his wife would be coming to pick him up today, so he looked towards the crowds of greeters on both sides as soon as he came out from the arrival gate.
But after scanning twice, he didn’t see his wife, Jiang Yingxue, which made him frown slightly.
So, dragging his suitcase, he walked between the two rows of people and searched around again, but he still didn’t see his wife and daughter. Could he have gone to the wrong gate?
He took out his mobile phone, intending to call Jiang Yingxue.
Just at that moment, a woman beside him asked, "What are you looking for?"
Ruan Xiangqian turned with some surprise and saw a woman in her thirties or forties smiling at him.
"Do you know..."
He was about to say, do you know me, but the words got stuck in his throat.
He adjusted his glasses, his expression revealing astonishment as he closely examined the woman in front of him.
"Ah Xue?"
He called out, unable to hide the shock in his voice.
But then he realized and said in amazement: "Was everything you said yesterday true?"
"Hee hee~"
Jiang Yingxue covered her mouth, unable to hide her glee.
She had been keeping it a secret from Ruan Xiangqian just for this moment.
Ruan Xiangqian came to his senses and, without much hesitation, crouched down and crossed through the barrier to come to Jiang Yingxue.
"Ah Xue?"
His voice trembled slightly as he asked again, as if to confirm her identity.
Jiang Yingxue nodded with a smile.
Ruan Xiangqian reached out to touch her cheek, the warm and elastic touch telling him that everything before his eyes was real.
"Unbelievable, simply unbelievable," he murmured continuously.
"Let’s talk at home, people are staring," Jiang Yingxue said with a smile, catching his hand.
Ruan Xiangqian looked around and realized that passersby were looking at them with bizarre expressions.
It’s no wonder, after all, an old man excitedly touching a beautiful young woman’s face indeed attracts attention.
"Right, right, let’s leave first." While speaking, he glanced down at the hand he was holding.
They quickly walked out.
As they walked, Ruan Xiangqian asked with great excitement, "So what you said yesterday was true, that lucky girl, it’s Ruan Ruan, right?"
Jiang Yingxue replied with a smile, "Aren’t you afraid I had surgery and am deceiving you on purpose?"
Ruan Xiangqian turned back to look at her and smiled.
"We’ve only been apart for a few days, no surgery recovers that fast, and..."
He lifted Jiang Yingxue’s hand, noticing the back of her hand was tender, delicate, and smooth.
"This isn’t something modern medicine can achieve, unless you are not my wife and someone entirely replaced you."
Ruan Xiangqian said this and suddenly looked hesitant, scrutinizing Jiang Yingxue closely.
Jiang Yingxue said nothing, just gave him a beaming smile as he observed her.
After a while, she asked, "So, have you confirmed I’m your wife?"
Ruan Xiangqian earnestly nodded, "You are indeed my wife, no mistake."
Jiang Yingxue smiled.
Just at that moment, Ruan Xiangqian added, "Actually, even if I got it wrong, it wouldn’t matter. Gaining a young and beautiful wife out of the blue, I’d be incredibly lucky."
Jiang Yingxue immediately stopped smiling and threw two punches at his chest.
Ruan Xiangqian promptly covered his chest, crying out in pain, "Not only have you gotten younger, but your strength has increased too."
"Let’s go, back home."
Ruan Xiangqian took Jiang Yingxue by the hand, eager to leave, filled with countless questions and overwhelming excitement.
"I’ll deal with you when we get back."
"Okay... okay..."
