Ah!
Sister Xin did not wake up with a radiant glow this morning, nor was she as inseparable from Rong Jingyang as a first love.
Sister Xin’s face was dark, filled with immense anger.
Therefore, she had won!
Won!
Then why was she still massaging the scummy Qin?
Grace raised her hand, as if to slap him on the head, hoping to conjure something.
But with the bitter lesson learned from the last time, Qin Yunxi had already slipped away.
Very quickly, he fled from Grace’s reach, scrambling away.
“Tch—”
Grace scoffed, “If you have the guts, don’t run! Look at you, you coward!”
Immediately, Grace very happily took out her phone, flipped to a certain shopping app, and her voice, not too loud, not too soft, but as melodious as playing a zither, entered Qin Yunxi’s ears:
“Mr. Qin, what size bikini do you wear?”
“xxxxL?”
Qin Yunxi’s face twitched: “!”
“How about this one?” Grace flipped to a maid-themed bikini and handed it to him, “Do you like it?”
Qin Yunxi’s face twitched as if he had Parkinson’s, “……”
Du Ruo Xin roared with fury, then saw Rong Jingyang’s face turn ashen. But she didn’t care, and left with an imposing air.
Leaving behind her a back that declared, “I’m just that cool.”
Rong Jingyang: “————”
Qin Yunxi looked at the maid-like bikini, his heart filled with rejection.
He looked resentfully at Rong Jingyang, [Brother, what’s going on? Didn’t I message you, asking to cheer up your sister-in-law?]
Rong Jingyang’s dark pupils narrowed slightly, his gaze fixed on Du Ruo Xin as she went upstairs, disappearing around the corner.
“Master Rong, I’ll go persuade Madam,” Aunt Wang said, about to fetch Rong Dou Dou’s clothes.
Rong Jingyang waved his hand to stop her, “No need.”
Du Ruo Xin had never lost her temper or shown him a dark face before; this was the first time.
Recalling Article Seven of the agreement—not to be perfunctory with her—did this mean that?
Rong Jingyang controlled his wheelchair and went upstairs.
He pushed open the bathroom door. Du Ruo Xin was playing a finger game with Dou Dou. The woman’s charming and sweet smile was nothing like someone who had just thrown a tantrum.
He handed her the clothes.
Du Ruo Xin looked at him with smiling eyes, “Thank you, husband.”
Rong Jingyang: “……”
Her mood changed so quickly!
No wonder people said women were born actors, the strangest creatures in the world.
“Thank you, Daddy,” Rong Dou Dou also called out politely.
Du Ruo Xin dressed her daughter and tied her hair, then looked at Rong Jingyang, “You take Dou Dou down to eat first, I’ll be there shortly.”
Rong Jingyang responded with an “En,” then picked up his daughter, “Let’s go.”
The little girl sat in her Daddy’s arms, afraid to move, her small body stiff and apprehensive, “Daddy, will I hurt you? Dou Dou can walk by herself.”
Rong Jingyang: “No.”
As the father and daughter’s voices faded away, Du Ruo Xin couldn’t help but curl her lips and smile.
It’s so good!
A happy day begins with him being willing to change for them, mother and daughter.
After breakfast, Rong Jingyang, Du Ruo Xin, Grace, Qin Yunxi, and others went to send Dou Dou to school.
Grace had come to Country A to assist Du Ruo Xin in handing over the synthetic petroleum technology to the Chinese Academy of Sciences and to provide technical guidance. However, since Du Ruo Xin did not go to the Academy of Sciences, Grace couldn’t go alone.
So, wherever Du Ruo Xin went, she went.
But now her focus was not on what Du Ruo Xin would do, or where she would go, but on the five-inch screen in her hand.
Hahaha—
Grace’s undisguised glee made Du Ruo Xin very surprised.
This?
Seeing her friend in such a good mood, Du Ruo Xin leaned in and asked, “What are you laughing at?”
Bikinis?
Among their friends, Grace was the most conservative. When they went swimming or surfing, she always covered herself from head to toe, revealing nothing.
Had she changed her ways?
Du Ruo Xin was a little surprised, “Do you want to go surfing?”
“No.” Grace was choosing enthusiastically, silk hollowed-out, nurse outfits, flight attendant outfits, slave outfits, pirate outfits, a myriad of strange bikinis, some sexy, some alluring, some full of uniform temptation.
Grace flipped to her shopping cart and showed Du Ruo Xin each item, “Does it look good, is it right?”
Du Ruo Xin: “————”
Oh no, her sister had been possessed!
Before Du Ruo Xin could check if Grace had a fever, Grace pointed at Qin Yunxi, “He’ll wear it.”
What?
Big Brother Qin… wearing women’s clothes?
This time, Du Ruo Xin was not only bewildered, but her eyes almost bulged out.
The Du family and the Qin family were old friends. Because their parents had a very good relationship, they would gather several times a year.
Rong Jingyang and Qin Yunxi were also close friends, so Du Ruo Xin saw him often.
In her impression, although Big Brother Qin was a playboy who liked to date all sorts of young and beautiful women, and each relationship never lasted more than a year.
But he was openly scummy, and would never cheat in a relationship.
Du Ruo Xin appreciated this point, so she didn’t dislike Qin Yunxi.
But, a man like an elder brother, wearing such an eye-searing, worldview-shattering bikini?
As if not shocked enough, Grace said with a smile, “Mr. Qin will wear a bikini and dance pole dancing in People’s Square.”
Pfft—
Du Ruo Xin spat out her drink.
“Cough cough cough!”
Damn it—
Has this world become so fantastical?!
Even the usually aloof, indifferent, and serious Rong Jingyang couldn’t help but chuckle.
No wonder he had sent him a message this morning.
“Right, Mr. Qin?” Grace winked at Qin Yunxi.
As the subject of the conversation, Qin Yunxi’s expression was very unpleasant.
But at this moment, Du Ruo Xin’s phone rang.
It was Feng Lin Wan calling. She turned around, slid the screen open, “Mommy.”
Feng Lin Wan’s loving voice came from the other end of the line, “Ruoxin, are you free tonight? I’ve arranged to meet some design institute experts.”
Du Ruo Xin knew her mother-in-law was doing this for her to secure the position of Chief Designer for the airport. She nodded and said, “I have time.”
Feng Lin Wan: “I’ll send the location to your phone.”
Du Ruo Xin: “Okay.”
After hanging up, before she could put her phone away, the ringtone sounded again.
Seeing the words “Big Brother,” Du Ruo Xin’s hair stood on end, but she still answered.
“Where are you?” Cristiano’s voice was extremely cold.
Du Ruo Xin’s heart skipped a beat, feeling a little uneasy, “I’m preparing to mourn my mother.”
Then, the phone went dead with a “beep beep beep.”
Cristiano hung up.
Hoo—
Du Ruo Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but the stone in her heart did not fall.
Big Brother…
What did he mean? Wouldn’t he do something extreme again?
Rong Jingyang was finally willing to compromise for her, to change for her, and she didn’t want this nascent relationship to be ruined by her Big Brother.
But her Big Brother’s obsession with her…
Rong Jingyang’s legs, and his hatred for her Big Brother…
How could these tangled grievances and hatreds be balanced, how could they be eliminated?
Du Ruo Xin lowered her long eyelashes, feeling helpless.
Suddenly, a pair of large, warm hands enveloped hers, “Besides me, you’re not allowed to think of other men!”
