Ruan Yi could probably tell from the behavior of Xu Siyan and Zhou Li that their relationship had probably not eased yet.
Before he could be embarrassed for too long, Mr. Xu had already walked over.
Mr. Xu was accompanied by a few friends, and Ruan Yi immediately gathered his emotions and went to say hello.
She and Xu Siyan have been married for almost half a year, and this is the first time Ruan Yi publicly attends such an occasion with him. She and Xu Siyan usually keep a low profile, and others don't know much about their relationship status.
Several friends around Mr. Xu have watched Xu Siyan grow up.
When elders and younger generations meet, they inevitably have to talk about certain topics.
One of the elders asked Xu Siyan: "Siyan, it's been half a year since we got married. When do you plan to have a child?"
When he asked, several other elders also became curious, "Isn't there any movement in Ruan Yi's stomach?"
This question is not easy to answer. Fortunately, Ruan Yi has a good psychological quality. She kept smiling and said, "Not yet. Things about the child depend on fate. Just let nature take its course."
Mr. Xu glanced at Xu Siyan. He seemed to have no intention of explaining.
He is also aware of the situation between the two juniors. Although he wants to hug his great-grandson, seeing Xu Siyan's attitude, it will not be possible in a short time.
Mr. Xu came out to smooth things over for Ruan Yi, "Why don't you have children? Don't worry, they are still young and it's time to work hard for their careers!"
"What does Ruan Yi do?" Due to inertial thinking, they all thought that Ruan Yi would become a full-time housewife after getting married. They were a little surprised to hear Mr. Xu say that she had a job.
Mr. Xu: "Yiyi is a lecturer at the University of Technology. He stayed at the school after graduating with a doctorate."
The elders did not expect that Ruan Yi had such a high degree of education, and the way they looked at her was obviously different from before.
——
Ruan Yi and Xu Siyan entertained many people together.
Xu Siyan doesn't talk much in private, but he handles situations like this very well. After all, his daily work involves changing cups and cups.
Although Ruan Yi was not used to it, he always maintained a decent smile.
The atmosphere of the entire birthday party was pretty good. Although there wasn't much communication between Ruan Yi and Xu Siyan, their cooperation was pretty good.
At the end of the birthday party, Ruan Yi got into Xu Siyan's car and the two went home together.
On the way back, the two of them had almost no communication.
Usually when the two of them get along in private, Ruan Yi is usually looking for topics to talk about, and Xu Siyan rarely takes the initiative to talk to her.
Ruan Yi was a little tired today, so he stayed silent all the way.
The cross-country finally stopped at the gate of Qingjiang Garden. Ruan Yi rubbed his eyebrows, picked up his bag and planned to get off.
She glanced sideways at Xu Siyan, who seemed to have no intention of getting out of the car.
Ruan Yi: "Excuse me, please drive carefully on the way back."
Xu Siyan: "After finishing the thesis matter, spend more time with my parents."
Ruan Yi: "I will, don't worry."
Xu Siyan: "Get off the car."

Although Xu Siyan promised to go back to Xu's house more often to accompany Wan Liu and Xu Moyan after finishing his thesis, it was not so easy to finish the thesis.
The work of collecting experimental data alone took almost three months. It was not until early June that the records were initially completed. Then a lot of time was spent on summarizing and screening.
Ruan Yi has been in the laboratory for several months and has become familiar with the junior students in the same major.
During the experiment, several junior students helped her a lot. In order to express her gratitude, Ruan Yi chose a time to treat them to dinner.
Ruan Yi is not usually a person who is extravagant and wasteful, but this time he rarely chose a restaurant with a high per capita consumption.
There were four people invited by her, three junior students and one junior girl, all of whom were studying for master's degrees at the University of Engineering.
Ruan Yi was in a good mood after solving the experimental data. When they had dinner together, he drank a few drinks at their instigation.
In fact, she has a pretty good drinking capacity, and she won't get drunk after a few glasses of wine, but when the show was over, her junior classmate was a little worried about her.
So I suggested: "Senior, let me take you home in a taxi. It's not safe for you as a girl at this late hour."
The junior student didn't know about Ruan Yi's marriage. He had a good impression of Ruan Yi, so he naturally refused to let go of such a good opportunity to perform.
But Ruan Yi didn't think too much and didn't want to trouble him: "It's okay, I can do it by myself. You can go back early."
The junior student refused: "That won't work. After all, you drank, so I'll give it to you. What if you are in danger?"
Several other people also persuaded Ruan Yi.
Ruan Yi couldn't bear to let down their good intentions, so she finally compromised and agreed to let her junior brother take her home.
After Ruan Yi reported the address of Qingjiang Garden, the junior student next to him looked slightly surprised——
Qingjiang Garden is one of the most famous villa areas in Haicheng, and its housing prices are staggeringly high.
Ruan Yi usually behaves in a low-key manner and can even be described as diligent and frugal. It is difficult to associate her with such a luxurious property.
The junior asked curiously: "Senior, do you live with your family?"
Ruan Yi: "No, I live alone."
There was a hint of admiration in the junior's voice: "Then you are so amazing. You can actually afford a house in Qingjiang Garden by yourself."
Ruan Yi: "..."
She could tell that her junior student might have misunderstood something, but she didn't explain too much.
At school, she almost never mentioned her marriage, and she didn't interact much with her colleagues. She was almost invisible in the office.
Ruan Yi is not sure yet how many of her colleagues know about her marriage.
The taxi stopped in front of Qingjiangyuan Villa. It was already half past ten.
The junior student followed Ruan Yi out of the car. After walking her a few steps, Ruan Yi said, "I'm fine. You can go back first."
The junior student stopped where he was, looking at Ruan Yi's face, but hesitated to speak.
Just when he was about to open his mouth to express his feelings to Ruan Yi, a high beam suddenly shone over him with an unreasonable aura.
Ruan Yi looked back subconsciously.
I immediately saw the familiar off-road vehicle.
Xu Siyan hasn't been back since Mr. Xu's birthday last time. Ruan Yi didn't expect him to show up at this time.
While he was thinking, the off-road vehicle had stopped, and Xu Siyan, wearing a suit, got out of the car.
His face was as cold as ever, and his footsteps finally stopped beside Ruan Yi and the junior student. His eyes briefly swept over, and finally stopped on Ruan Yi's face.
Ruan Yi: "You're back. Do you have a problem with me?"
Xu Siyan walked directly past her and walked into the yard, coldly saying: "Come in after sending her away."
He entered the password skillfully and disappeared into the night.
The junior student opposite looked a little dumbfounded, and it took him a while to realize: "Senior sister, he is..."
Ruan Yi: "My husband."
Ruan Yi explained her relationship with Xu Siyan to the shocked look on her junior classmate's face, and hurried back home.
When he opened the door, Xu Siyan was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, leaving only her back.
Ruan Yi put on his slippers and walked to him and stopped. Before he could ask him what happened when he came back, he was interrupted by Xu Siyan's cold voice.
"Ruan Yi, do you have professional ethics?"
