In the afternoon, just as Ruan Xingwan was preparing to go home, Zhou Cishen's phone rang.
After she got through, the man's low voice came: "Not at home?"
Ruan Xingwan hummed: "I felt a little uncomfortable, so I came to the studio. Now I'm going back."
Zhou Cishen said: "Okay, I have something to do today. I may be a little late when I come back. Go to bed early."
"Did something happen to the company?"
"No, it's not a big deal. I'll tell you when I get back."
"knew."
After hanging up the phone, Pei Shanshan poked her head in from the door and said, "Xingxing, aren't you leaving yet?"
Ruan Xingwan stood up: "Let's go."
Pei Shanshan's number was limited today, so she came by taxi, so Ruan Xingwan sent her back.
On the way, Pei Shanshan said: "Your boss Zhou didn't urge you to go back today."
Ruan Xingwan smiled: "He has something to do and will go back later."
"Speaking of which, although that doggy man sometimes seems quite idle, he is really busy when he is busy. But you can take a breather when he is busy, so as not to cling to you all day long."
Hearing this, Ruan Xingwan felt a little dazed. A year ago, these words would probably have been a huge joke.
Who could have imagined that so many things would happen in less than a year.
Not long after, the car drove to the location of the navigation system.
Ruan Xingwan lowered the window: "Is that so?"
Pei Shanshan said: "Yes, I'll leave first then. Please be careful on the way back."
"good."
After Pei Shanshan left, Ruan Xingwan looked back and drove away.
Back in the apartment, as soon as I got out of the elevator, a baby's cry came from next door.
Ruan Xingwan paused in his steps. He had been living here for a while, but he still heard a child crying once.
She withdrew her gaze and was about to walk towards the door when the elevator door reopened and a figure appeared in front of her.
Ruan Xingwan was stunned: "Xiao Chen?
It's so late, why are you here?"
Ruan Chen stood there with his usual expression: "Have a meal."
Ruan Xingwan often said that Xiao Chen would come over for dinner when he had nothing to do, but he had always refused before.
It was quite surprising at the moment.
But after Ruan Xingwan thought about it, Xiao Chen probably felt uncomfortable about what happened before.
Only then would he come to her.
Ruan Xingwan walked to the door and entered the password: "Come in."
Ruan Chen followed her, glanced next door, and then entered the house.
Ruan Xingwan changed his shoes and walked into the kitchen: "What do you want to eat?"
"It will be all right."
Ruan Chen was not as picky as Zhou Cishen. Ruan Xingwan looked at the refrigerator and planned to do something.
While she was cooking, Ruan Chen walked to the kitchen door: "Isn't Zhou Cishen not here?"
Ruan Xingwan responded while cutting vegetables: "He has something to do and will be back later."
Ruan Chen frowned when he heard this: "Is something wrong?
What's up?"
"I don't know, I didn't ask him."
Ruan Chen said: "Why don't you ask if he lied to you."
Ruan Xingwan turned to look at him: "If he lied to me, then if I ask, he can also find excuses to deal with me."
"Aren't you afraid that he will go behind your back and do other things..."
Ruan Chen pursed his thin lips slightly, but he still didn't finish what he said.
Ruan Xingwan said: "He won't."
"Do you trust him so much?"
Ruan Xingwan smiled and said after a while: "You will know when you fall in love later. If a person likes you, no matter how big the temptation is, it will not matter to him.
But if he doesn’t like you, there’s no point in being afraid.”
After saying that, Ruan Xingwan said again: "What about you, have you met Xu Wan recently?"
Mentioning this, Ruan Chen's ears couldn't help but turn red, he turned his eyes sideways and said, "I don't know."
"What I don't know is that if I see it, I have seen it; if I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it."
Ruan Chen said: "Her new movie is about to be released and she is going on a nationwide tour."
The corners of Ruan Xingwan's lips raised: "You know it quite well."
“It’s being promoted all over the Internet, but you just didn’t pay attention.”
After cooking, Ruan Xingwan set out the bowls and chopsticks: "Let's eat."
Ruan Chen said: "I heard from Zhou Cishen before that you were resting at home, but I just saw that you seemed to have come back from outside. Where have you been?"
Ruan Xingwan chuckled: "You have quite a lot of contact with Zhou Cishen."
Ruan Chen: "..."
I don't know if it was because of a guilty conscience, but he lowered his head while eating and said nothing.
Ruan Xingwan just said it casually and didn't take it seriously: "How is your signing with the film and television company now?"
Ruan Chen said: "It's okay, that's it."
At this time, Ruan Xingwan's cell phone rang, it was Zhou Cishen calling.
She picked up the phone and stood up: "Xiaochen, you eat first, I'll answer the phone."
"good."
Ruan Xingwan walked to the balcony and swiped the screen to answer: "What's wrong?"
Zhou Cishen's voice came: "Are you home?"
"Here we are, Xiaochen is here, we are having dinner."
After a pause, Ruan Xingwan said again, "When will you come back? Do you want to leave food for you?"
Zhou Cishen said: "No, I guess it will be very late."
Ruan Xingwan said: "Then you should be busy."
"Don't ask me what I'm doing?"
"If you want to say it yourself, just tell me. If you don't want to say what I ask, you will just deal with me. Why did you ask?"
On the other end of the phone, Zhou Cishen chuckled: "Okay, I'll tell you when I get back."
Putting away the phone, Ruan Xingwan walked into the house. When he saw Ruan Chen sitting at the dining table, he pursed his lips and hesitated for a while before walking over and sitting opposite him: "Xiao Chen, I have something to say.
you say."
Ruan Chen was silent: "Is it related to Ruan Jun?"
Ruan Xingwan nodded and said slowly: "He is dead.
On...the day of the funeral."
However, she did not ask Zhou Cishen again about Ruan Jun's autopsy results.
Even if she knew, she couldn't do anything to help.
Ruan Chen's facial features were stern, and there was no trace of surprise on his face. He just said calmly: "He should have died long ago."
Ruan Xingwan said: "Since he is dead, the matter is completely over. Don't think about the things that are and are not. You can study hard and fall in love."
Ruan Chen: "..."
After eating, Ruan Chen took the bowls into the kitchen and washed them.
After a while, he came out and said, "Then I'm leaving."
Ruan Xingwan said: "I'll take you down."
Ruan Chen said: "No need, I'm not a child, I'm leaving."
Ruan Xingwan looked at his back and smiled. In fact, for both her and Xiaochen, these things were far from over.
She just hopes that no matter what happens in the future, Xiaochen will not be harmed in any way.
After the sound of the door closing was heard, Ruan Xingwan returned to the bedroom.
She lay on the bed, took out her phone and searched the Internet. Sure enough, Xu Wan was on a nationwide tour, and it had only started not long ago.
It looks like it will be some time before he returns to Nancheng.
Ruan Xingwan was just about to put down her phone when she saw news related to Lin. She paused for two seconds and clicked in.
