Xu Moyan and Wan Liu could tell from Ruan Yi's tone that she had planned this matter long ago.
Even this "accident" may have something to do with the Ruan family's early planning.
But out of concern for Ruan Yi's self-esteem and emotions, Xu Moyan and Wan Liu tacitly agreed not to ask her about this matter.
Now that the thing has happened, it is meaningless to find out whether it was an accident or someone did it deliberately. Besides, they all admire Ruan Yi, and Xu Siyan has reached the age to get married.
Xu Moyan: "Okay, if you have any questions, remember to come to us at any time."
Ruan Yi: "Okay, thank you uncle and aunt."
Wan Liu: "You still call me uncle and aunt? It's time to change your words soon."
Ruan Yi smiled, but didn't know how to say that title.
Fortunately, Wan Liu didn't embarrass her and said jokingly: "It doesn't matter, just get used to it slowly. By the way, you may need to take a leave from work these days. Is that convenient? You have to be present for the wedding preparations."
Ruan Yi: "Yeah, okay."
——
Zhou Li fulfilled his promise very quickly.
That evening, Ruan Yi received a transfer to the newly opened card, and the amount was exactly what Zhou Li had promised her.
Looking at the string of "0"s, Ruan Yi's eyes were filled with tears.
Zhou Li was willing to pay such a high price to "break up" Xu Siyan and Jiang Mingzhu, so he must have a deep obsession with Jiang Mingzhu.
But if they are separated in this way, will Jiang Mingzhu really be with him?
Ruan Yi's thoughts stopped here, and the following things were not what she should consider.
Ruan Yi called Ruan Jianggu.
Ruan Jianggu felt very good after knowing what the Xu family was willing to take responsibility for, and it was rare for him to have a good attitude towards Ruan Yi.
Ruan Jianggu: "The Xu family is not bad. After you marry, the Xu family and our family will..."
"Dad." Ruan Yi interrupted him, "We agreed before that I will give you the money you are short of this time, and the family affairs in the future have nothing to do with me."
Ruan Jianggu on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds after hearing this.
He didn't know about the deal between Ruan Yi and Zhou Li, and he only thought that she came to the Xu family to solve the problem in order to get rid of him.
Ruan Jianggu didn't think that the Xu family would give her so much money at once: "Are you rich?"
Ruan Yi didn't answer the question: "Let's make an appointment to meet somewhere tomorrow and talk in person."
Ruan Jianggu agreed, and Ruan Yi was not surprised by his urgency. He only had this money in his eyes.
After Ruan Yi informed Ruan Jianggu of the time and place, he hung up the phone.
Just as they finished chatting, they heard a knock on the door.
It was Qinghe who came to find her.
The incident between Ruan Yi and Xu Siyan, and the news about the impending marriage between the Ruan family and the Xu family were spread widely.
Even people like Qinghe who don’t usually go online have seen the overwhelming news.
When he came back in the afternoon, Ruan Yi had already explained it to Qinghe and his grandparents -
Of course she couldn't tell the truth, she could only tell half-truths.
She and Xu Siyan had not seen each other for so many years, and it was impossible to develop feelings suddenly. Therefore, Ruan Yi told them that Xu Siyan was pressed hard by his family and needed to get married as soon as possible to stop the family's mouth, and the two happened to be in At this time, the accident in the hotel happened.
Therefore, she and Xu Siyan reached an agreement to cooperate with each other. She would marry him and he would help her escape from the Ruan family.
The three elders have relatively conservative ideas and cannot accept them using marriage as a bargaining chip for cooperation.
But the two of them have already had a relationship, and the quarrel is so big that they can't seem to think of any other solution.
Although Ruan Yi acted calm and indifferent, Qinghe was still worried about her.
Qinghe walked up to Ruan Yi, held her hand, and stared into her eyes: "Yiyi, have you really thought about it?"
Ruan Yi nodded, "Well, don't worry, I made the decision after careful consideration."
She also held Qinghe's hand, "This is a good solution once and for all. In the future, they will no longer be able to use you and my grandparents to blackmail me. Our family can live peacefully."
Qinghe sighed softly, with worry in his eyebrows, "What about you? Marriage is a lifelong matter, you and him... Do you still like him now? How does he treat you?"
Qinghe herself can be regarded as a victim of marriage, so she has never urged Ruan Yi to get married.
Living with someone without feelings is not as peaceful as being single.
Ruan Yi: "Now I just want you and your grandparents to have a good life."
She didn't answer the question, and her voice was slow and slow, "It's not that important whether you like it or not. I'm not a sixteen or seventeen-year-old kid anymore. Everything in the past is in the past."
Qinghe understood what she meant: "Mom is afraid that he will treat you badly."
Ruan Yi shook his head, "No, don't worry."
Although Xu Siyan didn't like her, there was still no problem with his character.
Xu Siyan would ignore her and be a stranger to her, but he would not domestically abuse her or abuse her.
Based on this alone, she is much better than those young masters with flawed character that Ruan Jianggu asked her to please before.
Although Xu Siyan has a cold temperament, he never bothers to do such things.
Ruan Yi was already prepared to be a stranger to him after marriage. She never expected that he would care about her affairs, let alone develop a relationship with him.
After all, Xu Siyan had already spoken so heartlessly.
——
The next morning, Ruan Yi met Ruan Jianggu in the private room of the tea restaurant.
Ruan Yi arrived ten minutes early and sat at the table quietly waiting for Ruan Jianggu's arrival.
Ruan Jianggu pushed open the door of the box and sat down opposite Ruan Yi. Without waiting for Ruan Yi to say anything, he couldn't wait to reach out to her.
"Didn't you say you would give me money? Where is the money?"
Ruan Yi did not feel sad because of his words, probably because he had been disappointed too many times in the past and had long been immune to it.
Ruan Yi turned around and took out a notarized agreement from the bag next to him, and slowly pushed it to Ruan Jianggu.
Ruan Jianggu showed a puzzled expression after seeing the folder: "What is this?"
Ruan Yi: "You take a look first."
Ruan Jianggu picked up the folder, opened it, and started browsing every line.
He was just frowning slightly at first, but after seeing the content clearly, his frown became deeper and deeper, and his face began to turn dark.
Especially the clauses like "severing ties" and "not having any financial dealings with the Xu family" written in the contract.
After Mr. Ruan brought back the news yesterday, Ruan Jianggu was planning to reap benefits from the Xu family.
Regardless of Ruan Yi's status in the Ruan family, she is still his daughter. As an in-law, the Xu family cannot reject him either emotionally or rationally.
If the Ruan family can get long-term cooperation and investment from the Xu family, they will surely be able to make a great turnaround.
Unexpectedly, Ruan Yi asked him to sign a contract promising not to rely on the Xu family.
Ruan Jianggu closed the agreement and threw it aside, and sneered: "You have climbed on a high branch and your wings have become stiff. You have forgotten your last name!"
"Twenty million." Ruan Yi took out a card, "As long as you sign the agreement and press your thumbprint, the money will be yours."
