When Ruan Zhiyin woke up in the room on Monday, he was still a little dizzy.

She doesn't drink too much, but yesterday Zhou Hongfei invited some people from the orphanage over.

I haven't seen it for a long time, and the atmosphere is very good. Gu Linlang couldn't drink while driving, but Ruan Zhiyin drank a lot of glasses.

This is just a little drunk.

Rubbing her temples, Ruan Zhiyin took off her pajamas and walked into the bathroom to take a shower.

When opened the door and went downstairs, found that Cheng Yuelin and Cheng Lang were already sitting in the dining room.

On the table, put milk, and simple toast omelette.

Between one big and one small, the atmosphere was silent.

The man was wearing gray home clothes, sitting there in a leisurely posture, looking down at the financial news on the tablet.

Opposite Cheng Yuelin, Cheng Lang's body was a little tight, and his round black eyes kept staring at the plate in front of him.

Seeing Ruan Zhiyin coming, his eyes lit up, as if he had seen a savior.

Glancing at the fried eggs on the dining table, Ruan Zhiyin was a little surprised. He turned around and asked, "Did you make breakfast?"

Cheng Yuelin did not have any talent for cooking. Fried eggs and porridge were the only good meals he cooked.

The man put down the tablet in his hand, looked at her weirdly, and then nodded: "Yeah."

Ruan Zhiyin didn't care, rubbed Cheng Lang's head, sat down in his seat, and ate breakfast.

However, the slightly compelling sight was always locked on her.

Ruan Zhiyin finally raised his head and curled his eyebrows and said, "Is there something on my face?"

"No." Cheng Yuelin raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "but—"

"Ruan Qiqi, have you forgotten something with your current nonchalant attitude?"

The man's voice became heavy, with a little accusation.

Ruan Zhi frowned in doubt.

The picture after leaving the wedding yesterday was a bit broken, she only remembered that Lin Lang sent her back to the villa, and then...

It seemed that she walked into the room with her last trance.

After a pause, Ruan Zhiyin met the man's gaze, and tentatively asked, "What did I forget?"

Cheng Yuelin leaned back in the chair for a while, chuckled, and pointed his slender finger to the flat screen beside him, and then reached out and handed it to her.

The accent: "I have nothing to say, lest you say I wronged you, so let's see it for yourself."

Ruan Zhiyin took it hesitantly.

On the screen, there is a surveillance video of the living room.

Cheng Lang was about to go abroad in a few days, and then tactfully said to Ruan Zhiyin that he didn't want to let the nanny take care of him. Ruan Zhiyin felt that Xu had resisted his last babysitter, so he didn't force it.

After all, Cheng Lang would go to school during the day, and a driver would pick him up these days.

But occasionally she and Cheng Yuelin come back late, and Cheng Lang will be at home alone. Fearing that something might happen to him, a camera was installed in the living room the day before yesterday.

At this moment, Ruan Zhiyin watched the video from last night, and his expression gradually froze on his face.

The impact of the screen picture was too great, and she was so embarrassed that she was stunned, unable to return to her senses for a long time.

Even though she knew that she was not drinking well, Ruan Zhiyin never expected that she would even use alcohol to commit crimes!

From the video, Cheng Yuelin always kept a proper distance from him. It was his overlord who slammed the bow, and after kissing others, he walked up the stairs on his own.

After Cheng Yuelin was unfairly tortured, seeing that her steps were not steady, she was kindly helped into the room.

After seeing what she had done, Ruan Zhiyin lowered his head in annoyance, and did not dare to look at Cheng Yuelin's eyes.

The man put her expression in his eyes silently, and chuckled unclearly: "Why, don't you plan to give me an explanation?"

After the conversation, he saw Cheng Lang's head popped out of confusion, glanced at him lightly, and pursed his lips: "Child, go upstairs and play with your toys."

What Cheng Lang fears most these days is Cheng Yuelin, and now he dare not listen to him.

So he glanced at Ruan Zhiyin, jumped off the chair cautiously, and ran back to the room.

The restaurant was quiet, with only two people left.

After a long silence, Ruan Zhiyin raised his head and tried to explain to the man: "I was drunk last night..."

"so?"

"So... my head is not sober."

If you are not careful, it will take advantage of you.

Hearing this, the man raised his eyebrows lightly, his voice was neither salty nor weak: "Ruan Ting, is this your explanation?"

After a pause, Ruan Zhiyin sighed and said sincerely: "Don't worry, I will...compensate as much as possible."

"The tone is not small." Cheng Yuelin smiled, "Then tell me, what compensation can you give me."

Ruan Zhiyin choked. To be honest, she really didn't know how to make up for Cheng Yuelin's loss. After all, he doesn't seem to lack anything.

Seeing that she was silent, Cheng Yuelin raised her eyebrows and said casually: "Why, can't you think of it?"

Slowly, Ruan Zhiyin raised his eyes to meet his gaze: "What compensation do you want? As long as it is within my ability, I will try my best."

"Oh really."

"Yeah." Ruan Zhiyin nodded slowly.

After a moment of silence, the man chuckled lightly and spoke with interest: "If this is the case, then...I have to think about it."

Ruan Zhiyin breathed a sigh of relief, and then, she heard the understatement from the other party

"Ruan Ting-chi, it's cheap anyway, you're out of it. Don't think about it when I ask for it..."

"Lai—account."

——

After the conversation, the atmosphere returned to calm.

In the next few days, both of them skipped the drunken episode of Ruan Zhiyin tacitly.

Even at the beginning, Ruan Zhiyin was still a little embarrassed, but he gradually returned to his usual state in the man's nature.

On Thursday morning, she took a half-day off and took Cheng Lang to go through the remaining formalities.

While sitting in the hall and waiting, Cheng Lang was not very emotional and did not speak.

After completing the formalities, Cheng Lang got into the car behind Ruan Zhiyin after walking out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

With his fleshy little face tangled for a long time, Cheng Lang suddenly asked: "Sister, will you still go to see me?"

Ruan Zhiyin was startled slightly, and helped him fasten the seat belt of the child seat, and said ambiguously: "If there is a chance."

She always has to consider Cheng Yuelin's attitude and is unwilling to make promises that may not be possible to her children.

Cheng Lang lowered his head and whispered: "Wait for my aunt, will I not see my mother either."

Ruan Zhiyin was silent and nodded softly.

Not long after the last visit to prison, Zhao Bing confessed to the police the part of the statement related to her husband Fang Shiguo, and also provided a strong evidence.

Although there is still part that needs police investigation, Fang Shiguo should be inevitably imprisoned.

Not long ago, Ruan Zhiyin took Cheng Lang to see Zhao Bing for the last time and told her that Cheng Lang was going abroad.

Thinking of this, she looked at Cheng Lang with a smile, and asked softly: "Cheng Lang, do you hate your brother?"

During this period of time, Cheng Yuelin's attitude towards Cheng Lang was by no means gentle, and Cheng Lang did not dare to say anything in front of Cheng Yuelin, but they were very harmonious in many details.

Sometimes, Ruan Zhiyin could not understand the attitude of the two to each other.

Hearing what she said, Cheng Lang tucked his eyebrows, and after a while, he shook his head: "Actually... it's not an annoying thing. I knew it was my mother who did something wrong and was taken away by the police uncle."

"The teacher told me that if people do wrong, they must be punished."

Ruan Zhiyin smiled and touched his head: "Just understand."

Zhao Bing is still a mother, at least he raised Cheng Lang well, and didn't instill resentment towards Cheng Fu and Cheng Yuelin in front of him.

After closing the door for Cheng Lang, Ruan Zhiyin received a WeChat message from Ye Yanchu as soon as he got in the driver's seat.

[Yinyin, where are you now? ]

Ruan Zhiyin replied by typing: just brought Cheng Lang out of the formalities, and after sending him back, he went to the company. What's wrong?

[Have you read that long gossip post? ]

[What long post? ]

After a while, Ye Yanchu sent her a link with a title.

[Papa the inside story of the marriage of a female host. 】

Ruan Zhiyin moved his eyebrows slightly and clicked on the link.

After ten minutes, finally finished reading this long post.

Also understood what Ye Yanchu meant.

The protagonist of the post has been decoded, and it is Liu Qiaojing, who had met in Youxin's studio not long ago.

Not long ago, the news that Liu Qiaojing and her husband from outsiders had separated for a year made hot searches. It is said that the man insisted on refusing to divorce, and has been dragging it with various excuses.

But in this post, it is said that Liu Qiaojing recently approached a certain president, and the resources have improved a lot, which made her ex-husband under pressure and had to go through the divorce procedures as soon as possible.

In various descriptions, the person who had a close relationship with Liu Qiaojing seemed to be her husband, Cheng Yuelin.

Even, the whistleblower also picked up Liu Qiaojing's resume, proving that she had studied in Lanzhong for a year and had known a certain president for a long time.

Ruan Zhiyin was in a daze, and was silent for a while before being interrupted by the phone's ringtone.

After frowning, he answered the unfamiliar call.

——

Lin Heng Building, President's Office.

Cheng Yuelin had just finished the meeting with the people in the M&A department in the conference room downstairs and returned to the top floor alone.

Looking at the empty desk, he frowned, then dialed the internal number.

Two minutes later, Bai Bo knocked on the door and came in.

Cheng Yuelin put the file aside, raised his eyes and asked him, "Where's lunch today?"

Bai Bo gave a light cough and hesitated: "Boss, madam today...maybe you didn't order lunch for you."

Cheng Yuelin frowned, a little surprised.

After thinking for a while, felt that Ruan Zhiyin was to spare his honeymoon vacation and was too busy at work, so he forgot to order food for him.

Anyway, Qian Fan will come over with food after a while, and he won't be hungry anyway.

"Why, something else?"

Cheng Yuelin glanced at Bai Bo with a tangled expression.

Bai Bo nodded slowly: "There is something..."

Halfway through, he handed the phone to Cheng Yuelin.

After a glance, Cheng Yuelin's voice was low: "Who is this woman?"

On the screen, the marketing account even combined his secret photos taken when attending receptions in the past with an unfamiliar woman, and even made up a scandal.

Bember paused, and then returned: "This is the host who will interview you later, and the spokesperson of YT's product line set shortly before."

Before Cheng Yuelin took a wedding photo for the reason of an interview, he turned his head and asked Bai Bo to pick up an interview casually.

But how would he know what the host who interviewed him later looked like.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yuelin's voice condensed: "You just said that she didn't order food?"

Bai Bo knew that the boss wouldn't want to repeat the words by himself, so he didn't dare to speak up.

"So you want to tell me that my innocent reputation was discredited by a scandal for no reason?"

Seeing the boss's face, Bai Bo cautiously said: "I have checked. Liu Qiaojing and her husband are living apart and divorcing. Maybe they want to use your name to force the other party to sign an agreement earlier."

"Lend my name? Who gave her the courage?"

"Well, Miss Liu's original spokesperson was recommended by Mr. Qian. I heard... She and Mr. Qian have been classmates for several years."

Cheng Yuelin almost laughed angrily. He closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows, knocking his slender knuckles on the table: "Go and let the public relations department send a clarification, now."

Bai Bo immediately responded and turned around to leave.

"and many more."

Cheng Yuelin yelled to him, his eyebrows condensed with anger. In the next second, Bai Bo heard a chilling voice——

"Where is Qian Fan?"

...

Ten minutes later, Qian Fan opened the door of the president's office with 120,000 caution.

As soon as he came in, he put on a flattering smile: "Brother Lin, are you looking for me?"

The man handed a cold eye knife.

Qian Fan swallowed his saliva, and then cried in mourning: "I don't know this kind of thing will happen. Liu Qiaojing's mother is my junior high school class teacher. When YT chooses the spokesperson, she is also the most suitable, so she chose her."

"Brother Lin, I was wrong. Don't worry! As soon as I saw the scandal, I rushed to find Zhong Yi and asked for my sister-in-law's phone number. I just explained it to her."

It's just that Ruan Zhiyin didn't say anything after answering the phone, so Qian Fan couldn't figure out her attitude.

Cheng Yuelin's face was stern, and at the moment he held his breath, but he didn't know how to vent it.

He glanced at Qian Fan, and after seeing that the bag in Qian Fan's hand was obviously not a takeaway item, he raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you mentioning?"

"Durian." Qian Fan quickly opened the bag.

"Brother Lin, I just asked Run Errand to buy it for you. Sometimes, men still have to take the initiative."

"I heard that this is a divine tool to calm the wife's anger. If the sister-in-law is still angry, you can put your posture there, maybe she will feel relieved."

Cheng Yuelin sneered when he heard the words: "Dare you let me kneel to durian when you are in trouble?"

Qian Fan hurriedly begged for mercy and explained: "I'm just making a statement, am I afraid that my sister-in-law is still angry."

"Brother Lin, don't stare at me. I will apply for overtime in the next two months. Don't worry, go and spend your honeymoon with your sister-in-law."

Cheng Yuelin: "..."

——

Because he had to take Cheng Lang to go through the formalities during the day, Ruan Zhiyin drove to and from get off work by himself today.

But the work in the afternoon was too busy, and when she drove back to the villa, it was already a bit late.

As soon as walked in, saw the back of the man leaning on the sofa, who was watching TV boredly.

There is still a children's show on the screen.

Ruan Zhiyin looked around, and felt that the living room seemed to be a lot more tidy.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of her entering the door, and Cheng Yuelin spoke casually: "I will replace the broken light bulb in the kitchen."

Ruan Zhiyin nodded lightly: "Yeah."

The man paused, then said: "I just finished bathing that little kid too."

"Um."

It is still a simple answer.

Cheng Yuelin frowned and coughed slightly: "Do you have anything to ask?"

"No." Ruan Zhiyin shook his head.

After a while, she turned her head, pursing her lips and said: "If the process is not the more rain, I have considered one thing."

"What is it?"

"I was wrong to do that to you before. Don't worry, it won't be anymore."

Seeing his scandal during the day, he immediately received a call from Qian Fan to apologize.

This made Ruan Zhiyin suddenly realize one thing.

Before, she found that she liked Cheng Yuelin, and even wanted to chase him. But she never thought about whether this would cause any burden to the other party.

What if he doesn't like himself?

Cheng Yuelin frowned upon hearing her words: "What then?"

Then?

Ruan Zhiyin looked down and thought, and then said: "Well... you said before, we are family, right?"

"Yeah." The man paused briefly and nodded slightly.

As if thinking of something, Ruan Zhiyin suddenly smiled: "In fact, when I was in the orphanage, Lin Lang and I were older than Zhou Hongfei and always regarded him as his younger brother."

Cheng Yuelin pressed his lips unhappily, but he was a little confused: "Ruan Qiqi, what did you suddenly mention him for?"

"I just think it might be good for us to continue to be family like this."

Lovers say that they must break up, but family members have a stronger relationship.

Cheng Yuelin's face was dark, his eyes were pressing, and he looked at her with a chuckle: "Family? You mean, just like you and Zhou Hongfei?"

Realizing his displeasure, Ruan Zhiyin paused slightly.

After thinking about it, she smiled and soothed: "Of course not."

The man calmed down a bit, and then, he heard her softly add

"I know you are half a year older than me. If you want to be a brother... it's okay."
