In the afternoon, when it was almost time for Ruan Xing's evening meeting, he left Lin's to go to the airport.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked downstairs, she saw a man leaning on a Rolls-Royce not far away, with a casual posture and calm black eyes, looking in her direction.
Ruan Xingwan was stunned for a moment, barely had time to react, and subconsciously ran over, threw herself into his arms, and hugged his waist tightly.
Although everyone has been telling her from last night to now that Zhou Cishen is safe, the uneasiness and fear cannot be dissipated and have always been vaguely lingering in her heart.
It was at this moment that he stood in front of her, she hugged him and could feel his body temperature.
Everything is real.
Zhou Cishen put his arms around her and said in a low voice with a smile, "Do you miss me so much?"
Ruan Xingwan hugged him tighter, her voice choked uncontrollably: "I almost may never see you again."
Zhou Cishen patted her back gently and comforted her: "As long as you want to see me, I will show up at any time."
Ruan Xingwan's voice had a thick nasal sound: "I originally... said I was going to pick you up..."
"I arrived early. I know you are anxious to see me, so I came to see you."
Ruan Xingwan didn't refute. She really wanted to see him and wanted to see him when he got off the plane.
Zhou Cishen rubbed her head: "Because it took me so long to come back, why don't you get off work early tonight as a reward?"
Ruan Xingwan nodded: "Okay."
Lin has Shen Zixi watching over her. She is not in any mood to do anything at the moment. It is a waste of time to stay here.
Zhou Cishen opened the side door and tilted his head towards her: "Get in the car."
On the way back, Ruan Xingwan leaned on Zhou Cishen's shoulder, feeling that his tense nerves were completely relaxed, and he fell asleep after a while.
Zhou Cishen hugged her and breathed a faint sigh of relief.
If something happened to her while he was away, he might go crazy.
Ruan Xingwan slept very deeply. When she woke up, she was already in the bedroom of the apartment, and the sky outside was already dark.
Zhou Cishen was lying next to her, breathing evenly.
Ruan Xingwan leaned over and looked at him quietly for a while, then leaned over and kissed his thin lips, then gently lifted the quilt and stood up.
Entering the kitchen, Ruan Xingwan opened the refrigerator and saw that there were no ingredients in it.
Zhou Cishen was not here these days, so she did simple things by herself and did not go to the supermarket.
Ruan Xingwan looked at the time. Xiaochen said in the morning that he would come over in the evening, and judging by the time, it should be almost here.
She didn't want to go out, so she simply sat on the sofa and ordered takeout.
About ten minutes later, the doorbell rang.
It's Ruan Chen who has arrived.
Ruan Xingwan opened the door and saw that Ruan Chen's clothes were a little wet and asked, "Is it raining outside?"
Ruan Chen said: "A little bit."
"Come in first."
Ruan Xingwan said, turned around and went into the bathroom, brought out a towel and gave it to him.
Ruan Chen took it and looked around the room: "Isn't Zhou Cishen back yet?"
Ruan Xingwan said: "I'm sleeping."
Ruan Chen was silent for a moment and then said, "What happened last night?"
"It's...nothing."
Ruan Xingwan knew that if Xiaochen didn't make it clear, he would still be worried.
Then he told him the cause and effect.
After Ruan Chen heard this, his brows furrowed tightly.
Ruan Xingwan went to pour him water: "Okay, everything is over. I'm fine. You don't have to worry."
Ruan Chen said: "What about Zhou Cishen?"
Ruan Xingwan paused: "I don't know, I haven't had time to ask yet."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Cishen walked out of the bedroom. When he looked at Ruan Chen, his tired black eyes showed a bit of dissatisfaction.
Zhou Cishen sat on the sofa and said slowly: "What are you doing here?"
Ruan Chen said: "Nothing."
After saying that, he said to Ruan Xingwan: "As long as you are fine, I will leave Xi'an."
Ruan Xingwan said: "Hey, let's go after eating. Isn't it still raining outside?"
"No, I'll take a taxi."
Ruan Xingwan chased after him and took an umbrella from the entrance to him: "Take it with you, I'll catch a cold soon."
After Ruan Chen left, Ruan Xingwan closed the door, walked up to Zhou Cishen, and whispered: "What are you doing? It's rare for Xiao Chen to come here."
Zhou Cishen leaned back on the sofa and put his fingers on his temples. Hearing this, his eyebrows slightly raised and he stretched out his hand to pull her into his arms: "At this time, isn't he here to be a light bulb? He is quite sensible."
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
She sat on Zhou Cishen's lap and felt that his body was a little hot, so she reached out and touched his forehead and then her own: "Are you catching a cold?"
Zhou Cishen hummed in a low voice: "A little bit."
"Have you taken your medicine?"
"without."
Ruan Xingwan originally wanted to get him medicine, but then she remembered that he had an empty stomach, so she decided to wait until he had eaten.
Zhou Cishen said: "Did they make things difficult for you last night?"
Ruan Xingwan shook his head: "No, it's your eldest brother's side. He is also trying to protect you..."
"Shen Zixi told me on the phone, I know."
Ruan Xingwan said again: "Then is there any way to save all this now?"
Zhou Cishen said calmly: "In two days, it will be Zhou's board of directors."
"What do they want to do with this board meeting?"
"Since they got Zhou's shares from me, they will definitely let everyone know, so this board meeting is the most suitable time for them.
I guess the old man is planning to let Zhou Junnian take this share and naturally join the Zhou family.
In this way, as long as I don't object, others will be meaningless."
No matter from which aspect, the old man's approach of pushing Zhou Junnian to the front is undoubtedly the smartest.
No matter what means they used to get it, if Zhou Junnian was forced to take on this matter, Zhou Cishen would never be as cruel as he treated the old man. He would save Zhou Junnian the greatest face.
It is precisely because of this that they have an opportunity to take advantage of.
Ruan Xingwan tentatively spoke: "Then...will you object?"
Zhou Cishen's lips curled up: "They put their bet on Zhou Junnian. They were indeed right. I won't do anything to him."
"But Zhou Junnian is only at their mercy. He has no interest in the Zhou family. If he joins the Zhou family, it will only be Mr. Zhou who uses his name to do what they want."
Zhou Cishen hugged her waist, put his chin on her shoulder, and said slowly: "Things can't go that far."
Ruan Xingwan didn't understand: "What do you mean?"
"That contract must be delivered to the old man in order to achieve maximum effectiveness. But London is so far away from here, and we can guarantee that they can deliver it."
