After watching the movie, it was already half past eleven.
Ruan Xingwan said: "I'm going back."
Zhou Cishen hummed in a low voice: "I'll give it to you."
"oh."
Along the way, Zhou Cishen didn't say much. It seemed that the movie just now had a big impact on him.
Ruan Xingwan lowered the window and blew in the cold wind, but the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up.
I don’t know how long it took, but the car stopped at the gate of Lin’s house.
Ruan Xingwan unbuckled his seat belt and reached for the car door.
When her hand touched the handle, she suddenly turned her head: "Am I leaving?"
Zhou Cishen said slowly: "If you want me to send you in, you can."
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
She said: "Pretend I didn't say anything."
Ruan Xingwan opened the door and got out of the car.
After walking a few steps, she stopped again, turned around and saw Zhou Cishen's car parked there, seemingly with no intention of leaving.
If she heard correctly, she seemed to have heard the sound of a lighter when she got out of the car just now.
After thinking for a moment, Ruan Xingwan walked around from the back of the car to the driver's seat.
Sure enough, Zhou Cishen was smoking.
Seeing her sudden appearance, Zhou Cishen waved his hand to push away the smoke in front of him, and stared at her with his dark eyes: "Why are you back?"
Ruan Xingwan laid his hands on the car window and looked at him momentarily.
Zhou Cishen: "?"
I don't know if it was because of the movie just now, but Zhou Cishen always felt that her gaze had a special meaning. He felt a little uncomfortable when she looked at him. Just when he was about to look away, he heard Ruan Xingwan say: "Are you guilty?
Already?"
Zhou Ci licked his teeth without leaving a trace: "What am I guilty of?"
Ruan Xingwan said seriously: "I read a test online. It said that if a couple looks at each other for 15 seconds, they usually can't help but kiss each other, but you are avoiding my sight. Are you feeling guilty?"
"Are you hinting at me?"
"I……"
Before Ruan Xingwan could speak, her neck was hooked, and the man's thin lips smelled of cigarette smoke were pressed against hers. When she wasn't paying attention, he easily pried open her lips and walked straight in.
When the cigarette butt was about to burn out, Zhou Cishen let go of her, his fingers gently rubbed the tender flesh of the back of her neck, and his voice was low and magnetic: "How about you come up and kiss me slowly?"
Ruan Xingwan pushed him away: "Dream!"
Zhou Cishen laughed softly: "Didn't you say that?"
"I just..." Ruan Xingwan didn't bother to argue with him, and his eyes fell on the cigarette box next to him, "It's me who should be sad, why are you sad."
Zhou Cishen held her hand: "I feel sorry for you."
Ruan Xingwan pouted: "It's just a movie, why are you so serious about it?"
Zhou Cishen said calmly: "It's nothing, I just feel sorry for you sometimes."
"sometimes?"
Shouldn't it be every time?
Zhou Cishen glanced over slowly, and Ruan Xingwan quickly shut up.
After a while, she pulled her hand out: "Okay, don't waste time here, I'm going in."
Zhou Ci stared at her deeply, pulled down her head without any warning, kissed her for a while, and then said: "Go in."
Ruan Xingwan was about to leave when he seemed to remember something: "No more smoking."
Zhou Cishen's lips curled up: "I understand."
Ruan Xingwan was still worried and stretched out her hand to him: "Give it to me."
Zhou Cishen picked up the cigarette case and lighter next to her and placed them in her palm.
Seeing this, Ruan Xingwan raised a smile on his face: "Then I'm leaving. You can be careful when you get home."
Zhou Cishen rarely smokes unless he is in an extremely bad mood.
Although she couldn't understand why he would be emotionally affected by a movie.
"good."
Ruan Xingwan put his cigarettes and lighter into his bag, turned around and entered Lin's house.
But she didn't drive back tonight, so she had to walk back.
But as soon as she took two steps, the street lights on both sides of the road dimmed with a bang.
There is no light around.
Ruan Xingwan stood there for a moment, and when he was about to take out his phone and turn on the flashlight, a dazzling light suddenly lit up behind him.
She squinted her eyes and turned her head to see the bright car lights.
When Ruan Xingwan saw this, the smile on his lips widened.
She turned around, didn't pick up her phone again, and just walked like that.
The distance illuminated by the headlights was far enough for her to complete the road.
Moreover, walking on this road alone will not feel lonely at all.
When Ruan Xingwan walked to the garden, he saw the lights around him, and then he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Zhou Cishen, saying that she had arrived.
After the message was sent, only a few seconds passed before the car lights in the distance disappeared.
Ruan Xingwan put away his cell phone and when he went upstairs, he caught a glimpse of Lin Zhiyuan's study door open.
She didn't know whether it was Lin Zhiyuan's habit or a deliberate attempt to guard against her. Ever since she moved to Lin's house, Lin Zhiyuan's study had been locked except when he was there.
Ruan Xingwan looked around, raised his eyebrows without any trace, then looked away, returned to the room, locked the door, and went to take a shower.
After she entered the bedroom, a servant came out from the corner, walked to Lin Zhiyi's room, and knocked lightly on the door.
Lin Zhiyi said coldly: "Come in."
The servant quickly opened the door: "Miss."
Lin Zhiyi sat on the sofa, flipping through the magazine in front of her: "Is Ruan Xingwan back?"
"Yes, I just returned to the room."
Lin Zhiyi said: "Didn't I ask you to turn off the lights? Why did you do it so quickly?"
The servant hesitated, not knowing what to say: "This..."
Lin Zhiyi frowned, knowing without thinking that it was definitely not what she wanted to hear.
Lin Zhiyi asked again: "Have you done what I asked you to do to open the study door?"
"It's done, it's done, and when Miss Ruan came back just now, she took a look at the study. She should have seen that the door was open."
Lin Zhiyi sneered coldly and continued to flip through the magazine: "Okay, you can keep an eye on her from now on and tell me as soon as she enters the study."
The servant was a little worried: "But the master is not here these days. If he knows that if we do this, will it..."
"With me here, what are you worried about?"
When the servant heard this, he immediately lowered his head and did not dare to speak any more.
Lin Zhiyi said: "Go out if you have nothing to do. Ruan Xingwan is not that stupid. She will definitely choose to go when no one is around. Don't sleep tonight and stay outside the study."
The servant responded: "Yes."
"Go down."
After the servant left, Lin Zhiyi closed the magazine and threw it on the table impatiently.
She suffered such a big loss because she had the leverage in Ruan Xingwan's hands before. She couldn't just let it go.
What's more, she had someone install surveillance cameras in the study in advance. As long as Ruan Xingwan went in alone, she would have a reason to kick her out of the Lin family.
And Ruan Xingwan had no chance of finding any information at all.
