The police needed to investigate and collect evidence, so they asked Ruan Xingwan and Ruan Chen to go back first. They would be notified immediately if there was any news.
After leaving the police station, it was already dark.
Ruan Xingwan said: "Xiao Chen, do you still plan to continue living on campus after the holiday?"
Ruan Chen did not answer immediately. He thought for a while and then said: "Starting from tomorrow, I will go to your studio."
"ah?"
Ruan Xingwan was stunned for a moment before realizing that Ruan Chen was worried about her because of what happened recently, "No, no one is here to make trouble anymore. I'm worried about you instead. I'll rent you a house outside during the holidays."
"No, I'll rent it myself."
Hearing this, Ruan Xingwan said with a smile: "Isn't it the same if you rent and I rent?"
Ruan Chen twisted his neck: "I can make money by myself now."
Ruan Xingwan smiled and did not argue with him about who would rent the house. He just asked: "Then where are you going to rent?
I will accompany you to see the house tomorrow morning."
"No, I've already taken care of it."
Two hours later.
Daniel opened the door and looked at the two people standing outside the door with surprise on his face: "What are you doing?"
Ruan Xingwan touched his nose: "Sorry, my brother is on winter vacation and wants to rent a house. Is it convenient here?"
"this……"
Ruan Chen said: "I will pay the rent."
"No, brother, this is not a question of whether you can pay the rent or not."
Daniel thought for a long time before finding an excuse, "I grew up abroad, and some of my personal living habits and tastes may be slightly different from yours. I'm afraid it will make you feel uncomfortable, so I still..."
"It's okay, I like canned food too."
Daniel: "..."
This is really the worst excuse he has ever made in his life.
Seeing Ruan Chen pulling the suitcase in, Ruan Xingwan held the door open and said apologetically: "Daniel, I'm sorry, something happened to me recently. My brother was worried about me, so he came to live with you. Don't worry,
I will convince him to move out as soon as possible."
Daniel retracted his thoughts and asked: "What happened to Miss Ruan?
Do you need my help."
"It's not a big deal. It's almost been solved. I'm really sorry."
"As for Miss Ruan, just let your brother live here without any worries and don't pay any rent. We have agreed that our neighbors should help each other."
Ruan Xingwan said: "I'm sorry for causing you trouble. If you don't mind, you can go to our place for dinner at any time in the future."
"In this case, I have taken advantage of it."
Daniel looked back and said, "Miss Ruan, I will take your brother to the guest bedroom first, and we will talk later."
"Okay, okay, thank you."
After closing the door, Daniel walked to the living room and pointed to Ruan Chen: "You can choose any of those two rooms."
Ruan Chen nodded: "Thank you."
Soon, he added: "I will not touch anything in your home, nor will I pry into your privacy. I will stay for a month at most and then leave.
As an apology, you can make any request to me."
Daniel sat on the sofa with his hands in his pockets and said with a smile: "Don't be so formal. Since everyone has moved in, treat this place as your own home and go put your things away."
Ruan Chen nodded to him and said, "Thank you."
Ten minutes later, Ruan Chen came out of the guest bedroom.
Daniel took a can of beer from the refrigerator and threw it to him: "You guys started your holiday today?
How did the exam go?"
"Okay."
"I heard last time that you had good academic performance. It seems that you are being modest."
Ruan Chen pulled his lower lip and said nothing.
Daniel sat opposite him and opened the beer in his hand: "Can I ask if your sister has been in any trouble recently?"
"Someone deliberately went to her studio to cause trouble."
"Do you think those people might still stir up trouble?"
"Not possible."
Ruan Chen pursed his thin lips slightly, "They have already found me. Although the plan failed, they will definitely make another move."
Daniel didn't expect such a thing to happen, so he paused and then said, "Isn't there anyone else in your family except you and your sister?
It seems like I’ve never heard her mention it.”
Ruan Chen looked coldly: "No."
Daniel saw that he didn't seem to want to talk about this topic, so he didn't ask any more questions. He stood up and said, "I'm going out. You can use everything in this house as you like."
Before Daniel left, he told Ruan Chen the door lock password before leaving.
…
Star Motion Technology.
Daniel stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Cheng Wei's eyes: "I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"
Cheng Wei was in a daze and pinched the bridge of his nose: "What did you say?"
"I said what happened to Ruan Xingwan was very strange. Have you gone to find out what happened?"
"I checked it, but it didn't have much effect."
Daniel said slowly: "I feel that this matter is not that simple. Ruan Xingwan is a girl, so he won't offend anyone."
Cheng Wei was stunned for a moment before he understood what he meant: "You mean, the person who planned all this really wants to deal with Zhou Cishen?"
"This is just a guess on my part."
Daniel tapped the armrest of the sofa lightly with his fingers and narrowed his eyes, "Zhou Ci deeply regrets the marriage, which has disgraced the Lin family to a certain extent. They can't touch Zhou Cishen, so there's no point in venting their anger on Ruan Xingwan."
Nothing is possible."
"Do you think it might be Lin Zhiyuan who did it?"
"The possibility is very high. I will test Lin Zhiyi's attitude in the next two days and see what she says."
Cheng Wei said no more, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing that he had a different look on his face, Daniel couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with you today?"
Cheng Wei shook his head: "It's nothing, maybe I didn't get a good rest last night."
"I also heard news that Lin Zhiyi may be engaged to Zhou Junnian."
"Zhou Junnian...brother Zhou Cishen?"
Daniel hummed: "But this news hasn't been confirmed yet. I still can't figure out why Lin Zhiyuan would put forward such a condition at this time. Logically speaking, we haven't done anything yet. Did he react too quickly?"
Cheng Wei glanced at him: "Maybe I think you are unreliable."
"..." Daniel said firmly, "The problem must not be with me."
Cheng Wei said nothing.
"Something must have happened that made Lin Zhiyuan feel scared, or there was a sense of crisis, so he had to extend an olive branch to the Zhou family in order to stabilize the current situation."
As soon as Daniel finished speaking, his cell phone rang.
The call was from Lin Zhiyi.
He raised the screen towards Cheng Weiyang: "Look, let me just say it's not my problem."
Cheng Weidao: "You should think about how to prevent Lin Zhiyi from marrying into the Zhou family. Although the current power of the Zhou family is in Zhou Cishen's hands, once we get married, it will not be so easy for us to follow the plan."
Daniel smiled and said: "Don't worry, Lin Zhiyi thinks very highly of herself. It is absolutely impossible for her to marry Zhou Junnian."
