Chapter 107

et and dark inside as usual. Zhou Guangtao hadn't come back home again, and Yan Luoxi felt a mix of relief and slight disappointment.She turned on the wall lamp, bent down to change her slippers, then...Chapter 107

Ni Xuanyi's heart was restless again. Although Ru Zhaog was good to her, she still didn't truly understand him. Compared to Li Yi, there seemed to be a lack of righteousness in Ru Zhaog, making him appear more scheming and unsettling.

For Ni Xuanyi to accept or marry Ru Zhaog was impossible at the moment, but what if one day he lost patience with her and resorted to force

Ni Xuanyi felt anxious.

Thinking about this made her regretful. She had acted rashly this time, only wanting to use Ru Zhaog to leave Li Yi without considering the consequences. With her education and work experience, she could have chosen to move to another city if she wanted to distance herself from Li Yi.

Ni Xuanyi started pondering; after spending more time with Ru Zhaog, if they didn't get along well, she couldn't afford to delay any longer. The more favors she owed him, the harder it would be to leave.

Thinking about leaving made her realize that she was now caught in a difficult situation; Ru Zhaog's strict surveillance over her made escape seem impossible. Ni Xuanyi tossed and turned on the bed for a long time before finally falling asleep.

The next morning, Ni Xuanyi woke up very early, feeling uneasy due to the unfamiliar environment, which caused her to wake up early despite not having slept well last night.

After lying in bed for a while, she got out of bed and approached the window, wanting to take a closer look at the surrounding area. When they returned from Ru Zhaog's place yesterday evening, it was already dark, so she hadn't seen what was around her.

When Ni Xuanyi pushed open the window, instead of seeing a pleasant view outside, she saw Ru Zhaog sitting in the garden downstairs.

Ru Zhaog sat on a chair in the garden, using his hand to prop up his chin as he stared intently at her room's window. He was still wearing the same clothes he had worn when they returned yesterday evening.

Seeing Ni Xuanyi suddenly appear by the window, Ru Zhaog immediately got up and happily greeted her with a cheerful "Xuanxuan, good morning!"

"Why are you sitting here" Ni Xuanyi asked him, full of bewilderment.

"I was afraid that you wouldn't feel at home on your first day here and would be scared at night. This way, I can see you right away."

Ni Xuanyi was stunned. "You've been sitting here since last night"

"Yes."

“Seven hours”

"Mm-hmm," Ruan Zhao stretched his stiff limbs.

Ni Xuanyi's heart trembled. She asked helplessly, "Aren't you cold Come in and warm up!"

"It wasn't cold at night, but there were mosquitoes biting me all over."

Finally, with Ni Xuanyi's permission, Ruan Zhao entered the house again. However, he strictly adhered to the rules and stayed downstairs only, taking a shower in the guest room without any intention of going upstairs.

When he emerged after dressing himself up, Ni Xuanyi had already finished washing up and was standing at the bottom of the staircase, wearing pajamas.

Gazing at the fresh-faced Ni Xuanyi bathed in morning light, Ruan Zhao felt that all his efforts were worthwhile. "Xuanxuan, it feels so good to wake up early and see you!"

"Please, you didn't sleep last night; how can you talk about waking up early" Ni Xuanyi looked at Ruan Zhao's somewhat haggard face with a complex mix of emotions.

Ruan Zhaogao looked at her with a good-natured smile.

Ni Xuanyi saw that the maid had prepared breakfast and called out to Ruan Zhaogao, "Come on, let's go eat. After we finish eating, you can have a nice long nap."

"Um..." Ruan Zhaogao hesitated, dragging her feet as she walked very slowly.

“What’s wrong” Ni Xuanyi turned back, puzzled.

"I can sleep, but you have to stay with me."

“What” Ni Xuanyi was stunned by Ruan Zhaogao's out-of-the-blue statement again.

I mean I’ll sleep on the sofa and you sit next to me,”

Alright, Ruan Zhaogao dozed off in the sun while lounging on the couch. Ni Xuanyi sat beside her flipping through magazines as she kept him company.

Ruan Zhaogao's sleeping face had a strong childlike quality to it. The room was cozy and warm, with steam rising slowly from the hot milk tea in front of them. Could this be what they called an idyllic life

As Ni Xuanyi flipped through the magazine, she couldn’t help but recall Li Yi. In fact, she had experienced such wonderful times with him too.

Ruan Zhaogao slept soundly next to Ni Xuanyi and didn't wake up until noon. After lunch, Ni Xuanyi suggested that they go visit Ruan Xi and Meng Mang.

By the time she was five months pregnant, Ruan Xi's belly had become quite prominent. She was incredibly surprised when Ni Xuanyi suddenly appeared before her and happily embraced her while jumping up and down, "Xuanxuan, are you here to spend the New Year That’s great! We can celebrate together again."

Ni Xuanyi heard Ruán Xī mention the New Year and was reminded of last year when Li Yì secretly redecorated her apartment for her. She felt a wave of sadness. Since leaving G City and Li Yì, she had already cried in secret many times; now there could be no more tears. She smiled as she patted Ruán Xī’s belly and did not answer her question.

Time is a magical hand that can transform everything beyond recognition. Even the deepest love without regrets can become as light as clouds.

Ruán Zhao saw Ni Xuanyi's expression change and quickly reminded his straightforward sister, "Ruánxī, Xiūxiū is now my girlfriend, she won’t be leaving anymore."

"What" Ruán Xī was shocked to hear this. From what she knew, Ni Xuanyi’s feelings for Li Yì were such that the mountains would have to crumble and the heavens come together before they’d part ways. Even Meng Měng's relentless pursuit hadn't moved her; how could Big Brother succeed so easily!

Ruán Zhao frowned at Ruánxī, displeased with her reaction. Didn't he deserve Ni Xuanyi’s love He glared at her.

Ruán Xī immediately realized what she had done and clapped her hands as if happy, "Oh wow, that's great! Xiūxiū staying is so wonderful; now we can be companions. We can go shopping together, swim, steam in a sauna, travel, go to the market, have parties...

Upon hearing this, Ruán Zhao was annoyed again and couldn't help but remind her, "You mustn’t always pester Xiūxiū; she is my girlfriend."

"Xiūxiū, you are so lucky! Look how Big Brother is so concerned for you!" Ruán Xī said with a hint of envy.

Ni Xuanyi was embarrassed by the siblings' antics and quickly steered the conversation away from herself. "Ruánxī Sister, how many months along are you Is it a boy or girl"

At this question about her child, Ruán Xī's interest piqued, and she answered excitedly: "The baby is five months old now; I’ve had an ultrasound. It’s a boy! Haha, he’ll be just like Meng Měng!"

"That’s wonderful!" Ni Xuanyi looked at Ruánxī's happy face and was genuinely pleased for her.

But Ruán Xī's excitement faded as she said, "However, Meng Měng isn’t happy. He still prefers a girl! He said he likes girls who are smart like you, considerate, and know how to care for their parents."hese feelings were like an invisible hand pushing her closer to Ran Xu.She wasn't actually very familiar with Ran Xu, yet things had developed to the point where they needed to register their marriage...
