C29 Cold House
When Ke Ruyan returned home with her large and small bags, Leng Mingxuan was slightly surprised by the items in her hands. He never thought that Ke Ruyan would actually prepare so many gifts, which was enough to show how much respect and importance she had for Leng Family people. Of course, he was very happy.
"Didn't you say that you don't need to prepare it?" "You don't find it tiring either." As expected, he still said those words that were not his heart.
Ke Ruyan only glanced at him, not paying any attention to him. Of course she could see the joy on Leng Mingxuan's face. In the past two days, she had already understood that Leng Mingxuan was like a cooked duck, stubborn. Even if he didn't think that way in his heart, he would still say those words.
"Hey, woman, why aren't you paying attention to me!" Seeing that Ke Ruyan ignored him, Leng Mingxuan seemed to be hurt. He limped forward, trying to get something out of Ke Ruyan's hand. Actually, he was just afraid that she would be tired after preparing so many things.
Ke Ruyan placed the things in her hands on the cabinet and changed into slippers. "I didn't ignore you. I was just too lazy to talk." Her words made Leng Mingxuan choke.
"Alright, I was just joking. What, can't you take it? Do you think I'm happy that you talk to me like that every day? " Ke Ruyan finally managed to reverse the situation. She took advantage of her victory to pursue, wanting to see Leng Mingxuan's reaction.
"Heh, I'm not going to lower myself to the same level as a woman like you! Go and change your clothes and get ready. We should be leaving soon. " Leng Mingxuan put on a magnanimous expression and signaled Ke Ruyan to go and get ready.
It was getting late. It was almost five o'clock. Besides, Ke Ruyan still had to prepare a few dishes for Grandma Leng, so of course she had to leave as soon as possible. Therefore, she no longer bickered with Leng Mingxuan and quickly went back to her room to change.
Ke Ruyan packed everything up very quickly. She didn't need to put on makeup to save time. She just fixed her eyebrows a little and lightly applied the foundation. She didn't need anything else.
However, even if it was such a simple cleaning up, her image still looked pretty good. It could be seen from Leng Mingxuan's slightly amazed gaze.
Although these few days were just like normal days, Ke Ruyan usually did not wear any makeup. She always kept her face to the sky, so Leng Mingxuan could see the difference even with her light makeup on. To be honest, this woman was quite good-looking. Leng Mingxuan felt that his mouth was a little dry, so he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"I'm ready, let's go." Ke Ruyan warned Leng Mingxuan as she saw him sitting there motionlessly.
"Oh, okay." Leng Mingxuan nodded mechanically. He felt a little awkward, he had been distracted by that woman! If others were to find out, they would definitely make fun of him!
… ….
When they arrived at the Leng Family residence, the housekeeper Mammy Zhang had already been waiting for them at the door.
"Eldest Young Master, Eldest Young Madam, you're finally back! This old woman has been waiting for a long time!" Mammy Zhang nodded at Ke Ruyan with a smile and said to Leng Mingxuan in a friendly manner. Mammy Zhang had watched Leng Mingxuan grow up. This relationship was not ordinary, so she didn't care about Leng Mingxuan's words.
"Sorry for the trouble, Mammy Zhang." Is Grandma and the others in the living room? " Leng Mingxuan revealed a big smile towards Mammy Zhang. The sunlight was so bright that Ke Ruyan almost shook her eyes when she looked at it. This was the first time she saw Leng Mingxuan smile like this.
"Yes, Eldest Young Master, all of you should quickly go in!" Mammy Zhang nodded and led the way towards the main hall.
Leng Mingxuan suddenly stretched out his other hand towards Ke Ruyan while holding something in one hand.
"For what?" Ke Ruyan was very surprised. What was he trying to do?
Leng Mingxuan raised his eyebrows, "Give me your hand."
Ke Ruyan was about to obediently pass him her hand, but she hesitated for a moment as to why she wanted to listen to him.
Leng Mingxuan didn't seem to notice Ke Ruyan's hesitation. He took the initiative to take her hand and lead her inside: "This is more like a newlywed couple!"
Ke Ruyan was caught by surprise by Leng Mingxuan's hand. Just as she wanted to pull back, she heard Leng Mingxuan whisper in her ear: "What, you want to be in the gang?"
When she heard that, she paused for a moment. In the end, she didn't retract her hand and followed Leng Mingxuan inside.
… ….
"Aiya, like smoke, you're finally back!" When Grandma Leng saw them enter, she smiled and extended her ancient hands towards Ke Ruyan, gesturing for her to come closer.
Leng Mingxuan thought his grandma would talk to him first, so he was about to smile and reply, but he didn't expect the old man to see the woman next to him the first time.
He pretended to be dissatisfied and said to Grandma Leng, "Grandmother, are you seeing things? Didn't you see your grandson? "
Grandma Leng just glared at Leng Nanxuan reproachfully. "You? Of course I can see someone as big as you! Do you really think that Grandma's eyes are blurry when she's old? My eyes are really good! "
"Grandma, you're not considered old!" Ke Ruyan was very happy in her heart. Grandma Leng really gave her face, and she even scolded Leng Mingxuan for her. She hurried forward and held Grandma Leng's warm, wrinkled hands.
"Yo, this little mouth is so sweet. I don't know if that's what I'm thinking …" The one who said this was, of course, Wen Ruya, Leng Mingxuan's mother.
Ke Ruyan's expression continued to maintain her big smile. She pretended that she didn't hear the words that were filled with dissatisfaction. Leng Mingxuan didn't have any reaction because he was too far away, so he really didn't hear anything.
"Mom, Dad, Ru Yan even specially prepared a present for you!" Leng Mingxuan did not forget to show everyone the gifts that Ke Ruyan spent half a day carefully purchasing.
Hearing Leng Mingxuan's words, Leng Hongtao smiled and nodded, "Ruyan is considerate." However, Wen Ruya slightly curled her lips. "What kind of decent thing can a petty person like her prepare!"
Leng Hongtao, who was sitting beside her, tugged her sleeve and shouted in a low voice, "Stop talking!" Wen Yaru saw that her husband was no longer happy. She opened her mouth wide, but didn't say anything. She only glared at Ke Ruyan.
Ke Ruyan walked from Grandma Leng to Leng Mingxuan's side and took the things that he held in his hands, giving them to everyone one by one, "Dad, this is a Black Dragon tea for you. The owner said that this is the best kind, but he doesn't know if it suits your taste. "Mom, this is a Lancome set specially prepared for you. The sales clerk at the counter said that this set of maintenance products is most suitable for women your age. It can even alleviate wrinkles!"
The tea leaves looked very new, and everyone's gaze was attracted to it.
