Soft temptation

Lou Ruan pursed her lips subconsciously, her eyes fell on her hands.

Mother Xie was gently pulling her.

She didn't even dare to look at Xie's mother's expression.

I don't know how many pairs of eyes stared at the thank you banquet, leaving ambiguous traces in such a place, no matter how you look at it, it will make people feel that the person who left the traces is not so polite.

People like the Xie family shouldn't like this.

At the moment when Lou Ruan was thinking wildly, Xie's mother calmly withdrew her gaze from Xie Yanli, and looked at Lou Ruan with a smile, "Son, try this, rose cake."

"The old man here is all Chinese dim sum, this is specially brought to you by mother~"

Mother Xie was the principal of the ballet troupe when she was young, and she has been managing the company of Xie's family since she married into Xie's family. Her work made her originally cold and beautiful temperament become extra sharp.

When you are outside, anyone who sees it must respectfully step forward and call Mr. Zhou.But when she tilted her head and smiled at Lou Ruan, it seemed that all her sharpness had faded away and she became very friendly.

Even during the few seconds when Lou Ruan was stiff, she still leaned over, stretched out her arm and hugged Lou Ruan's waist affectionately, and whispered in her ear, "Mom is relieved to see that you are in a good relationship."

When she leaned over, the clean and sweet smell of her body also enveloped her.

It is like a girl, active and full of vitality.

Lou Ruan held her breath and was hugged by her waist, looking at her cautiously.

There was a smile on the corners of the woman's eyes and brows, without any displeasure.

-

Lou Ruan sat in the Xie family's old house for a long time. There are many Xie family members, and she is trying hard to remember everyone.

Xie Yanli, who had been excluded all this time, finally had the chance to sit beside her.

He fell asleep and leaned down, with his long legs draped casually. He looked at the people in front of him, his voice was soft and casual, "It doesn't matter if you don't remember."

Lou Ruan turned his head.

Xie Yanli leaned on the sofa: "Don't pay too much attention, there are many people in the family, and we will get to know each other slowly in the future."

"What are you doing there?" Mr. Xie came back after talking with others, and sat down on the sofa again, "I don't know how to peel an apple for your wife."

Lou Ruan hurriedly said, out of habit, "No need, grandpa, I..."

Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Xie Yanli, who was leaning lazily on his body, straightened up. He stretched out his hand and took an apple, with a slight smile on his lips, "Okay, peel one."

Lou Ruan: "..."

The slender and cold white hand has already got the fruit knife, he looked over, the corner of his thin lips bent, and he leaned over slightly, the warm breath fell on her shoulder and arm, his voice was very low, "I cut it for a meaning, can you eat it?" You can eat."

Lou Ruan nodded lightly, "Okay."

Only then was Mr. Xie satisfied, he snorted and leaned forward slightly, "Where are you going to live?"

"Your shabby place is definitely not good."

Mother Xie came over with a plate of washed grapes. The grapes were plump and exuded an attractive fruity aroma.

She put the plate in front of Lou Ruan, and thanked the banquet.

Xie Yanli had already started peeling apples, the veins on the back of the cold white hands were slightly raised, and the apple peel was hanging on his hands, as if laughing angrily, he raised his head, "A broken place?"

Mr. Xie also nodded, "Yes, the dilapidated place, the decoration is not good, the structure is not good, Ruan Ruan can't live there!"

Moreover, how can there be a wedding room to live in an old house!Definitely want to live in a new house!

Lou Ruan: "..." She felt that although Xie Yanli's house was not particularly good in the north of Beijing, the geographical location was by no means a shabby place.

The housing prices there are ridiculously expensive. When she was studying, the price per square meter was already more than 12 RMB. In the past two years, due to the surrounding development, the housing prices have risen so much.

Xie Yanli lowered his eyes and peeled the apple, "Then where do you two want her to live?"

"Fenglin Mansion."

"Maple Palace."

The two spoke together, but the words they said were different.

The Fenglin Mansion is closer to the place where Xie's mother lives, while the Fenghe Garden mentioned by the old man is closer to the old house.

Of course Lou Ruan knew about these two places, both are good places, and the housing prices are ridiculously high.

"Ruan Ruan, I heard from my grandfather that the house in Fengheyuan is a new one, it has been renovated, and there is a small courtyard with crabapple planted in the courtyard. The flowers are beautiful when they bloom, and there is a small pool...you The one Mom said is fine, but the yard is too small to look good." Mr. Xie has already started selling it.

Mother Xie never expected him to say something like this, "Dad, Fengheyuan is nice, but the decoration is too Chinese, and it's all based on your preferences. Ruan Ruan may not like it."

"Then you can smash it and reinstall it."

"That's so troublesome."

"The decoration must be according to Ruan Ruan's preferences."

……

Xie Yanli finished peeling the apple quietly. He put the fruit knife away, and he also took down the apple peel that had not been broken once during the whole process, and threw it away.

He handed the peeled apple to Lou Ruan, took out a tissue to wipe his hands, looked at the two arguing about the house, and said with a smile, "Stop arguing, let her choose."

Only then did the two turn their heads to look at Lou Ruan:

"Yes, Ruan Ruan choose."

"Ruan Ruan, mom will take you to Fenglin mansion tomorrow to see that house. If you don't like it, mom will take you to see other houses. Mom has a lot of houses!"

Mr. Xie is not convinced, who doesn't have many houses yet, "Grandpa will go to see it with you tomorrow, grandpa has more houses than your mother!"

Xie Yanli: "She has to go to work tomorrow, don't make things difficult for her."

Mother Xie and Mr. Xie looked over together.

Xie Yanli didn't care about their gazes at all, "We have our own plans, don't worry about it."

When Xie's mother and Mr. Xie spoke, Xie Yanli put his finger on his forehead and added, "I also have a lot of houses. If she doesn't like it, she can still buy it."

Mr. Xie obviously didn't believe him very much, "You don't even prepare a ring..."

Xie Yanli glanced at Lou Ruan with a smile, the ends of his eyes were slightly raised, as if they were hooked, "I'm busy."

Lou Ruan took a bite of the apple lightly, the sweet and crunchy taste of the apple filled her mouth, she gently lowered her eyes.

Actually, on the way to Xie's old house, Xie Yanli talked about the ring, but she didn't think it was necessary.

I didn't expect him to be talked about for so long because of this matter.

If I had known earlier, I should have listened to him and bought a pair on the way...

"whispering sound."

Mr. Xie still doesn't believe it.

Xie Yanli promised again and again that he would definitely prepare the wedding ring well, and when he was ready, he would bring Lou Ruan back to show Mr. Xie, so Mr. Xie let him go.

They stayed at Xie's old house for dinner at night. Xie's old house is not as big as other rich people's houses, and the restaurant is relatively small. There are so many people sitting at the dining table, it seems a little crowded, but the meal was lively. , very harmonious.

At the dinner table, Xie's mother wanted to ask about her in-laws several times, but she was blocked back by the Xie Yan ceremony.

During the break after the meal, Mother Xie finally caught Xie Yanli outside, she pulled him under the vines in the yard, raised her eyes and asked, "What's going on, what happened to Ruan Ruan's house? Don't let me mention my in-laws, your dad and I always have to see them, what about the wedding, see you then?"
