Chapter 376: Troubled By A Little Girl

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The engagement banquet should have been the grandest, but it was canceled by Ruan Ying herself.

Huo Xiuyuan being slapped in public was also very painful for him under the gaze of many people.

In the end, the engagement banquet was left unsettled, and the Huo Family became everyone’s topic of conversation recently.

“Canceled in public? It’s even done by the daughter of the Ruan Family? She might have discovered that something was wrong with her ex-fiance…”

“I was there. Huo Hong’s face was extremely dark.”

“That’s for sure. The duck that was about to be in their hands ran away…”

Similar words always appeared in everyone’s mouths. Everyone generally felt that there was something wrong with Huo Xiuyuan.

The engagement banquet was a major event in a person’s life. It was more likely that Ruan Ying was being willful or that something had happened to Huo Xiuyuan.

Ruan Ying didn’t think much of it. On the other hand, Mother Ruan was worried about her daughter’s condition for a few days.

“Mother, don’t worry. I’m really fine.” Ruan Ying smiled and comforted Mother Ruan.

She sat down beside Mother Ruan. “Since 1 knew that Huo Xiuyuan was lying to me, why should I be sad? He’s not worth it.”

Ruan Ying’s open-minded attitude made Mother Ruan calm down. Looking at the bright smile on her daughter’s face, her heart relaxed.

“It’s good that you can figure it out yourself,” Mother Ruan said gently.

The space between her eyebrows relaxed a little. There were no melancholic creases, but there was always a hint of doting and worry in her eyes as she looked at Ruan Ying.

Ruan Ying really didn’t care. Instead, after knowing that Huo Xiuyuan’s love was completely different from what she had imagined, she was more open-minded than anyone else.

The two of them didn’t talk about this topic for long before Ruan Ying’s attention shifted elsewhere.

“Mother, do you know Murong Qiao?” she suddenly asked.

Mother Ruan nodded naturally. “Why are you asking this?”

Murong Qiao’s reputation was resounding. Everyone knew about the daughter that had returned to the Murong Family, so the Ruan Family naturally paid attention to her as well.

“I want to play with her,” Ruan Ying requested.

That day at the engagement banquet, if Murong Qiao had not taken the initiative to speak up and reveal Huo Xiuyuan’s true colors to her, she would probably still be immersed in the lies Huo Xiuyuan had fabricated.

After Ruan Ying dealt with the aftermath of the engagement, the first thing she remembered was to look for Murong Qiao and thank her.

Mother Ruan didn’t know what had happened between the two of them. When she heard Ruan Ying say this, she thought that the other party had really gotten over it and was even in the mood to go out and play with someone.

This was a good thing.

Mother Ruan patted her daughter’s hand. “Of course. Let the butler call the Murong Residence later to ask.”

Whatever Ruan Ying wanted, she would naturally do it immediately.

The butler quickly contacted Uncle Yang of the Murong Residence and explained the situation.

The lights in the living room of the Murong Residence were on. It was a dim yellow light that made one relax and even sleepy.

Murong Qiao was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, holding her laptop and discussing company matters with Jiang Chi.

For the past two days, she had been busy with other things and didn’t go to the company to take a look. Although Jiang Chi was there, Murong Qiao made up her mind to go back to take a look in a few days.

“Young Miss.” Uncle Yang walked over.

Murong Qiao replied casually, “Yes?”

“Ruan Ying from the Ruan Family said that she would like to invite you out to play tomorrow…” Uncle Yang handed the phone over.

Ruan Ying?

The carefree scene of the other party announcing the cancellation of the engagement with a microphone immediately appeared in Murong Qiao’s mind. She took the cell phone. “Hello?”

“Do you want to come out to play tomorrow? 1 haven’t thanked you for what happened last time.” Ruan Ying was very straightforward.

She was used to being straightforward and said whatever she wanted.

Murong Qiao didn’t think much of it. “It’s a small matter.”

She brushed it off indifferently. She didn’t think that she was helping. At that time, she only helped Ruan Ying for the sake of destroying Huo Xiuyuan.

However, Ruan Ying insisted, “But you’ve helped me a lot.”

“I know a restaurant that has delicious afternoon tea. You’ll definitely like it…” She was in high spirits.

The unprovoked passion almost pounced on Murong Qiao’s face, making her feel a little helpless.

She thought helplessly about her arrangements for tomorrow. There really didn’t seem to be anything going on.

After Murong Qiao heard her finish her sentence, she interrupted lightly, “Alright, what time will I see you tomorrow?”

She felt that if she didn’t agree, Ruan Ying would go on forever.

It was difficult to refuse such kindness. This was probably what the current situation was like.

“I’ll look for you tomorrow at noon!” Ruan Ying’s voice rose excitedly.

Although she was shouting a lot, many of her words were actually from the nervousness and uneasiness in her heart.

In the end, she was not confident. When she called Murong Qiao, Ruan Ying’s palms were sweating as she held her cell phone.

Hence, Murong Qiao’s day was reserved by Ruan Ying.

However, when she agreed, she didn’t realize how enthusiastic Ruan Ying was about making a new friend.

When the sun rose and the moon set, Murong Qiao had just gotten up from bed at nine o’clock. When she washed up and was about to go downstairs to eat

She saw Ruan Ying sitting in the living room.

“You…” Murong Qiao’s tone was hesitant. “Didn’t you say in the noon?”

Her gaze swept across Ruan Ying’s clearly meticulously dressed clothes and felt her obvious anticipation.

Ruan Ying was dressed simply. She was wearing a casual shirt and jeans. Her blue and white colors were distinct, and her hair was simple. She only tied it into a high ponytail and sat in the living room, looking at her with sparkling eyes.

“I’m a little excited.” Ruan Ying scratched her cheek in embarrassment.

She didn’t have any particularly good friends, and most of the Young Masters and Young Ladies around her were just flattering her. This was the first time Ruan Ying had taken the initiative to make friends.

She was afraid that she would leave a bad impression on Murong Qiao, so she went to the Murong Family excitedly today.

Uncle Yang walked out of the kitchen. “Young Miss, do you want to eat now?”

Murong Qiao looked at Uncle Yang and saw his helpless expression.

“Young Miss Ruan didn’t ask me to inform you when she came. She only said that she would wait by herself…” Uncle Yang was helpless.

It was not good to let Ruan Ying wait for too long. Murong Qiao quickly finished her breakfast and returned to her room to pick out a set of clothes to leave.

Ruan Ying led her to the car she had come in. “My family has a new amusement park. Do you want to try it out?”

Compared to the Murong Family and the Huo Family, the Ruan Family’s head was involved in the development of the entertainment industry. The Ruan Family’s amusement park had chains in many cities. It could be said that everyone knew about it.

“Alright,” Murong Qiao agreed readily.

She was not a talkative person. It would naturally be better if Ruan Ying had her own arrangements.

When the chauffeur heard Ruan Ying’s words, he changed the route and sent the two of them to the amusement park under the Ruan Family.

The time Murong Qiao could stay at home was naturally the weekend. This also meant that the amusement park’s business was at its peak.

When the two of them arrived at the amusement park, it was already half past ten.

The huge size of the amusement park was impressive. Standing at the door, one could see the roller coasters, pendulums, and many other exciting rides inside at a glance. Most eye-catching was the long queue.

Most of them were couples and families. Staring at the scorching weather, they lined up at the entrance of the amusement park.

“So many people?” Murong Qiao was slightly surprised.

With business so booming, it was no wonder that the Ruan Family could squeeze into third place.

Ruan Ying was used to it. “That’s normal. There will be a lot more people during the holidays.”

She usually liked to play everywhere. She was even more familiar with many amusement parks than her employees.

“Let’s go, I’ll bring you in.” Ruan Ying pulled her hand and walked towards the other side.

There was already a refined-looking person waiting for them at the VIP exit..
