Ruan Yi thought that her guess was correct. Xu Siyan did not mind being labeled with these labels.
But she does have a certain responsibility for this matter. Because of the injustice, Ruan Yi's attitude towards Xu Siyan is not as cold as before: "I didn't say that, I just said that I was divorced, and the news spread as it spread. .”
She seemed to have regained the patience she had when she first got married. She not only explained it to him, but also offered a solution, "I will clarify it with my colleagues, don't worry."
Xu Siyan hadn't heard Ruan Yi talk to him with this attitude for a long time, and he was a little uncomfortable, "How are you going to clarify?"
Ruan Yi: "I would say divorce is my problem."
Xu Siyan: "Oh, are you sure your colleagues won't say that you were PUAed by your ex-husband?"
Ruan Yi: "..."
It seems that this is really possible. She can explain it, but the rumors from the outside world cannot really be stopped.
Xu Siyan: "My reputation has been ruined by you."
His words sounded quite stalkerish, and Ruan Yi always felt that his next sentence would be "You have to be responsible for me"——
Xu Siyan seemed to have changed so much now that she didn't know how to get along with him.
Ruan Yi thought for half a minute and then retorted: "They are scolding my ex-husband, not Mr. Xu."
Xu Siyan: "Is there any difference?"
Ruan Yi: "They don't know that you are my ex-husband, so strictly speaking..."
"Then what if they find out." Xu Siyan interrupted her.
Ruan Yi: "They won't know, I won't tell."
Xu Siyan: "But I can."
Ruan Yi was confused. What good would it do to him to disclose this kind of thing and put himself in the ranks of scumbags?
Ruan Yi didn't speak for a long time, and Xu Siyan knew from her expression that she didn't want others to know about their previous relationship.
Although he had known it for a long time, when he actually saw her reaction, he still felt a little sour in his heart.
Xu Siyan: "However, if you promise me something, I don't have to say it."
Ruan Yi's intuition told her that this was not a good thing, so she chose to remain silent and not respond.
Xu Siyan's eyes passed over her collarbone, his Adam's apple rolled, and his voice was a little hoarse, "Come here."
Ruan Yi's state changed from silence to vigilance.
Xu Siyan: "I'm not crazy enough to do it with you on campus."
He made a threatening statement, "Or, should I introduce myself to your colleagues now?"
Ruan Yi naturally couldn't let this happen. She was cruel and took a few steps closer to Xu Siyan.
As soon as her steps stopped, Xu Siyan raised his arm——
Ruan Yi moved his lips and was about to warn him not to mess around when he felt a chill on his neck.
She looked down and saw the familiar butterfly necklace.
Xu Siyan put on the necklace for her, then held her hand and put the bracelet back on her right hand.
"This is my condition." Under Ruan Yi's confused gaze, he explained to her, "You will wear them from now on, and I won't say anything."
Ruan Yi looked at the gleaming bracelet on his hand. The butterfly studded with diamonds was even more dazzling under the afternoon sun, as if it was about to flap its wings and fly at any time.
Xu Siyan: "Does such a simple thing require you to think about it for so long?"
Yes, it is indeed a very simple thing - surprisingly simple.
Ruan Yi originally thought that Xu Siyan would use this matter to make things difficult for her, but in the end he just asked her to accept the gift.
Ruan Yi: "Okay, I promise you."
Xu Siyan: "You seem to be surprised."
He could easily see through her thoughts, "You thought I would use this to threaten you."
It was an affirmative sentence and did not require her to answer.
Xu Siyan smiled mockingly. Yuanye was right. His image in her heart was really bad. She didn't even want to believe that he would be good to her. How could she believe that he had feelings for her now?
Xu Siyan squeezed Ruan Yi's hand and entwined his fingers against her fingertips. The movement was very gentle, but very ambiguous.
"I'm trying to prove it to you." He looked into her eyes, and his serious expression made Ruan Yi stunned for a moment, forgetting to struggle.
She heard Xu Siyan say: "I will do my best and respect your wishes from now on."
Ruan Yi: "You and I..."
Xu Siyan: "I like you, it's my business alone."
He blocked the rest of her way with the words she once said, leaving Ruan Yi speechless.
Xu Siyan: "I'm going back to the company first, you can do your work."
——
Xu Siyan's change in attitude caught Ruan Yi off guard.
After he left, Ruan Yi stood by the artificial lake for a long time before returning to the office.
Ruan Yi usually doesn't have the habit of wearing jewelry. She has an extra bracelet on her hand. She always comes across the computer when working in the afternoon, so she has to look at the bracelet from time to time.
Then I naturally thought of Xu Siyan.
This situation happened several times, and Ruan Yi suddenly realized that this was probably Xu Siyan's ultimate goal.
Wearing something given by him every day will make you think of him whenever you see it.
Ruan Yi had no job after finishing writing the lesson plan. She stared at the bracelet on her hand in trance, remembering what Xu Siyan said by the artificial lake.
Very different from his previous style.
Ruan Yi guessed that someone might have given him an idea.
Why did Xu Siyan spend so much time and energy on her? Why does he have such a deep obsession?
Ruan Yi still couldn't believe that Xu Siyan liked her.
Or maybe, because he knew that she had been secretly in love with him for many years, he felt guilty and had feelings of compensation and pity?
Men always seem to be prone to this.
Ruan Yi's thoughts were interrupted by a cell phone ringing.
On the screen was Mr. Ruan's number.
Ruan Yi's face darkened a bit, and he walked out of the office with his packed bag before answering the phone.
Mr. Ruan called her at this moment, and the purpose was self-evident.
Mr. Ruan: "Yiyi, are you at school? Let's have dinner with grandpa tonight."
Ruan Yi: "No, grandpa, it's a bit far here."
Mr. Ruan: "I'm already at the gate of your school."
——
Ruan Yi came to the restaurant box reserved by Mr. Ruan, put down his bag and sat across from him.
In the years since she married Xu Siyan, Ruan Yi and Mr. Ruan have been in contact, but not frequently.
Mr. Ruan is regarded as a good person to Ruan Yi by the Ruan family, but only under the premise that the interests of the Ruan family are not touched.
When Ruan Jianggu wanted to use her as a marriage tool, Mr. Ruan never objected.
After Ruan Yi sat down, Mr. Ruan asked a lot of questions.
When talking about the divorce, Mr. Ruan said lovingly: "It doesn't matter. One of us is beautiful and has a good job. The Xu family is not so lucky. I will introduce you to a few well-matched ones later."
"No, grandpa, just tell me what you have to say." Ruan Yi put down the tea cup and looked directly into his eyes: "You are here for the surgery, right?"
Mr. Ruan: "Sicheng is also your brother after all. He is the only male in the family——"
Ruan Yi: "I will not donate a kidney to him."
