Chapter 2152

It’s just that there are so many people in this world with prejudiced eyes, and, honestly speaking, sometimes social compatibility really matters. Yu Rou comes from a good family, her personality is somewhat pampered; being friends is great, but being with Ruan Qun, I’m afraid my brother might suffer, and I’m afraid Yu Rou won’t be happy either.

So when I found out that Yu Rou was interested in Ruan Qun, although I joked about it, I never tried to match them.

Yu Rou’s face stiffened upon hearing this.

Because she’s clearer than anyone that her mother doesn’t look favorably on Ruan Qun. She knows Duan Xi doesn’t have a chance, so she opted for Duan Xin, persuading her several times to interact more with him.

But she really doesn’t like Duan Xin, and even if she did, it wouldn’t matter, because she knows Duan Xin seems to have been with one of Jiaojiao’s classmates for a long time.

Seeing Yu Rou’s stiff expression, Ruan Jiaojiao felt a pang of sympathy and squeezed the back of her hand, saying, "Xiaojiu should be on the second floor. I just saw Miaomiao go to the second floor too. How about I take you to find her?"

Yu Rou’s eyes lit up at these words, and she nodded happily, hugging Ruan Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao, you’re so good."

Ruan Jiaojiao sniffed: "You just realized that?" Then she couldn’t hold back a smile, and the two of them headed upstairs.

The Ruan Family hotel is four floors high, the first floor is mostly a lobby, with only a few private rooms, while the upper floors are entirely private room-style, and the third and fourth floors are hotel rooms.

Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t know which room her brothers were in, so she could only search room by room. When she reached a more central room, she heard familiar voices inside and thought it was the right room. Just as she was about to push the door open, she heard Xin Miao’s voice, though she didn’t catch the beginning, she heard the last sentence clearly: "Can I date you?"

"???"

Ruan Jiaojiao and Yu Rou exchanged a glance, seeing the confusion and surprise in each other’s eyes.

Who is Xin Miao confessing to?

A name vaguely surfaced in Ruan Jiaojiao’s heart, because she had always known Xin Miao seemed quite interested in her second brother, often inquiring overtly and covertly.

But back then, Xin Miao hadn’t reached adulthood and was just asking about her brother, nothing more.

"Who do you think it is?" After the initial shock, Yu Rou pointed silently at the private room, asking Ruan Jiaojiao.

Ruan Jiaojiao hadn’t replied yet when a familiar voice came from inside: "I’m sorry, you’re Jiaojiao’s friend, also my sister."

Yu Rou’s eyes widened, her mouth open to exclaim that it was her second brother, when Ruan Jiaojiao covered it.

Ruan Jiaojiao gestured for her to back up, indicating they should retreat quickly, because although they overheard unintentionally, if the involved parties found out, it would definitely be awkward, especially since Xin Miao is so sensitive; she surely wouldn’t want anyone to know about this.

Yu Rou nodded, bit her lip, and backed away, both retreating into a private room. Just when Ruan Jiaojiao was about to breathe out a sigh of relief, she felt as if she bumped into something, turned around, and saw Lu Meng standing behind her, possibly having collided with him, causing him to stumble backwards.

Ruan Jiaojiao was startled and hurriedly steadied him before he fell.

It was at that moment, when her hand touched his body, that her heart began to race violently, thump, thump, thump!

Ruan Jiaojiao was greatly flustered, releasing her hand before Lu Meng stood firmly, placing it over her heart, and when she looked up, she saw Lu Meng making the exact same gesture.
