“Well...” Ruan Xiaolian felt uncomfortable all over. “This dress...”

It looked very expensive...

“It’s okay, this wicked girl won’t wear it anyway.” Cui Yuhui was a smart person and saw through Ruan Xiaolian’s discomfort. “I’ve spent much energy choosing and selecting, it shouldn’t be wasted.”

Ming Shu nodded while still holding the desserts.

Yes, yes, yes.

Ruan Xiaolian was a little timid and thought she might have met some scary people.

Why would a stranger stand up for her and even offer her clothes?

“My name is Ruan Xiaolian...” Ruan Xiaolian took the initiative to introduce herself.

Cui Yuhui didn’t have an impression of this name, but still smiled graciously, full of enthusiasm. “Little Lian, your name is as cute as your appearance...”

She acted like she had known her for a long time.

Ming Shu: “...” I don’t understand my mother’s acting level.

Ming Shu sent Cui Yuhui out of the dressing room and sat on the chair. She asked Ruan Xiaolian, who was playing with her own fingers on one side, “Where is Feng Heng?”

Ruan Xiaolian was the female protagonist, and Feng Heng was the male protagonist.

Besides Feng Heng, who else would take her to such buffet party.

Ruan Xiaolian’s expression suddenly changed.

She didn’t feel very surprised in her heart. This was right. How could such a beautiful girl stand up for her for no reason.

A complicated emotion emerged in Ruan Xiaolian’s eyes, like enduring anger as well as a sense of loss. “Do you know Mister Feng?”

“No.”

Ruan Xiaolian: “...”

“Didn’t he bring you here?”

Ruan Xiaolian’s fingers paled due to the pressure she put on them. Her nails pinched into the back of her hand between the thumb and index finger, forming deep marks.

“...Yes.” Feng Heng brought her here, but they had a quarrel, and he left her here alone.

She intended to leave, but was blocked by the two women who asked her to do them a favor. Ruan Xiaolian didn’t think much, but who knew that they were just trying to embarrass her.

Ming Shu asked again, “Where is he?”

Ruan Xiaolian took a deep breath. “He left.”

“Oh.” The male protagonist often did such things and would punish those who bullied the female protagonist later.

This kind of behavior would do nothing to conquer a girl. Those who wanted to win a girl’s heart shouldn’t follow this method.

Ming Shu looked at Ruan Xiaolian with a smile. “Stay with me in the future, I’ll protect you.”

Ruan Xiaolian: “???”

...

Cui Yuhui watched Ming Shu stroll around the hall with the girl called Ruan Xiaolian and was very speechless in her heart. Although her daughter said there was nothing between them, it didn’t look like it...

Was it really because she had pushed her too hard recently?

But when she was her age, she had already given birth to two daughters.

In the previous years, she didn’t even dare to talk about this to her due to what happened to Qiao Yun, but now Qiao Yun had been gone for four years...

Cui Yuhui thought of her unfortunate daughter and couldn’t help the reddening of her eyes.

She wouldn’t push Little Qi anymore.

The Qiao family owned a large fortune. Even if she didn’t get married for her whole life, the Qiao family could support her.

Ming Shu had no idea that her biological mother had been imagining this much again.

After the buffet party, Ming Shu sent Cui Yuhui to the car, then left with Ruan Xiaolian with her arms around her.

There was low-key car parking outside the venue. The man in the car watched the person walk out of the gate and ordered the driver to head over.

As he was about to open the window and call her, he saw the woman walking at her side pull open the door of a car and Ruan Xiaolian get in.

The man’s face darkened. “Go find out what happened at the party later.”

The driver, who was also his assistant, nodded.

Ming Shu drove the car herself. At first, she didn’t realize there was car following behind her. But after turning several corners, the car was still following her.

“Is the car in the back Feng Heng’s car?”

Ruan Xiaolian was startled a little by Ming Shu’s sudden voice. After a moment, she looked back. “Yes... It’s his car.”

She drove to the party in that car and could recognize it.

“Chut.” Ming Shu winked at Ruan Xiaolian. “Let’s get rid of him.”

Ruan Xiaolian: “...”

About ten minutes later, the car behind them was off their trail. Ming Shu slowed down a little bit. “Can you cook?”

She asked a question which was very important to her.

“Well...” Why did she ask me this? “Yes... Yes.”

Ruan Xiaolian was born in a poor family. Her father had disabilities and couldn’t work, her mother could only do some odd jobs at ordinary times, and she also had a younger brother who was a student. Naturally, she took responsibility to cook for her family.

She used to work in a restaurant where she met a very nice cook who taught her a lot. The family also praised that she cooked well.

Ruan Xiaolian found the girl in the front smiled even brighter as if she had picked up some treasure.

“Do you have food at home? Maybe we can buy some ingredients. What dishes can you cook? I want to eat braised pork chops...”

Ruan Xiaolian: “???” Is she ordering a menu?

Ruan Xiaolian’s home was very small and the house was divided into three rooms and one hall. Mother Ruan was mending clothes by the lamplight. Seeing Ruan Xiaolian come back with a friend, she greeted Ming Shu a little uncertainly.

“Come... Have some water.”

“Thank you.”

Mother Ruan smiled. “Little Lian seldom brings her friends over...”

Mother Ruan was at a similar age to Cui Yuhui, but Mother Ruan looked quite old with time’s marks.

Ruan Xiaolian looked at Ming Shu and didn’t see any odd expression on her face. She wore a faint smile and behaved politely and tenderly.

“Little Lian, is that you?”

A man’s voice sounded from inside, and Ruan Xiaolian responded, “Yes. Dad, haven’t you rested?”

“Ah, no. Did you bring a friend home?”

“Well... Yes...” Ruan Xiaolian stuttered. They only met a few hours ago, how could they be friends.

“Treat your friend well,” Father Ruan said to Ruan Xiaolian.

...

Ming Shu had a night snack in Ruan Xiaolian’s home, but Ruan Xiaolian was obviously startled by Ming Shu’s big appetite.

Didn’t she need to keep in shape like other girls?

She ate so much food this late...

“Thank you for tonight.” Ruan Xiaolian accompanied Ming Shu downstairs.

“You’re welcome. Who knew you can cook so well.” Ming Shu leaned against the car and smiled brightly.

“...” But you didn’t know I can cook before. Of course, Ruan Xiaolian didn’t dare to say this.

“Well... Can I ask, why did you help me?”

Ming Shu lifted her hand and put her warm hand on Ruan Xiaolian’s head. “A girl who can cook is always worthy of a helping hand.”

Even after Ming Shu drove her car away, Ruan Xiaolian still didn’t react.

How exactly did she know she could cook?

Ruan Xiaolian returned home. Mother Ruan was cleaning the table.

“Mom, go take a rest, I’ll do this.”

Mother Ruan avoided Ruan Xiaolian. “You worked hard and you should go rest. Let me do this.”

Ruan Xiaolian knew her mother’s personality and tried another way to persuade her: “Let me help you, it will be faster.”

Mother Ruan sighed. “It’s all our fault, we drag you down.”

“Mom, what are you talking about!” Ruan Xiaolian frowned. “I never thought like that. You don’t drag me down, you gave me my life!”

Mother Ruan sighed again.

“Miss Qiao... doesn’t look like an ordinary person, how did you meet a girl like her?”

“I only met her a few hours ago... She helped me and sent me home.”

Mother Ruan talked about gratitude again after hearing that she helped her. “If so, you should indeed thank her.”

Ruan Xiaolian watched the water in the sink and shook her head after a long time.
