Chapter 100 Ruan Liuzheng: I don’t mind being more tolerant of him

Fu Yanci snorted coldly, looking at Ruan Liuzheng with disdain, “Just as Wan Ning said just now, you must apologize to Huan Qing and Wan Ning immediately!”

Ruan Liuzheng raised her eyes slightly, glanced at Fu Yanci lightly, and raised the corners of her lips, “Bank transfer or check?”

Fu Yanci paused.

He frowned, and a hint of disgust and speechlessness flashed between his cold eyebrows, and a hint of gloom appeared in his eyes.

After a long time, he said in a deep voice, “Ruan Liuzheng, are you so short of money? For money, you don’t even care about your face?”

“You were not like this at the beginning.”

Ruan Liuzheng smiled lightly twice, his eyebrows and eyes were slightly cold, “That’s because you have never known the real Ruan Liuzheng. Besides, buying and selling transactions are natural!”

“Why, do you want to default on your debt?”

Ruan Liuzheng raised her eyes, her beautiful eyebrows and eyes were slightly indifferent, and her pure and unworldly face did not change the slightest emotion.

But one could clearly sense the disdain and sarcasm beneath her calmness.

Sometimes, the more indifferent an emotion is, the more it can hurt people's hearts.

Especially when facing someone like Fu Yanci.

Fu Yanci stared at Ruan Liuzheng's eyebrows, feeling as if a long thorn had pierced his heart, neither going up nor down, making him extremely uncomfortable.

How dare Ruan Liuzheng look at him with such an expression? What qualifications does Ruan Liuzheng have to despise him now!

Fu Yanci's eyes sank, and a sense of unwillingness suddenly emerged in his heart.

He felt that every move of Ruan Liuzheng in front of him was very dazzling.

It was so dazzling that he wanted to destroy the expression on Ruan Liuzheng's face and make Ruan Liuzheng crawl at his feet and beg for mercy.

He closed his eyes, suppressed the despicable thoughts in his heart, and opened his eyes again, his expression returned to calm.

He opened his mouth and said, "After the exhibition, I will let Jiang Ze personally hand the check to you."

"So, what about your sincerity?"

Fu Yanci changed the subject, and raised his dark eyes coldly, staring at Ruan Liuzheng with deep eyes.

Like a hungry wolf biting its prey, it would not give up until it achieved its goal.

Ruan Liuzheng nodded with satisfaction and said lightly, "I'm sorry, I was wrong."

She raised her eyes and looked at Bai Huanqing and Xie Wanning quietly. Although she was looking at them, there was no trace of them in her eyes.

There was a hint of sarcasm in her cold voice.

Her attitude was so careless.

She didn't even bother to be perfunctory.

The joy on Bai Huanqing and Xie Wanning's faces froze in an instant, as if something was stuck in their throats, and their faces instantly became gloomy.

However, Ruan Liuzheng didn't intend to continue to pester them.

She raised her eyes to glance at the waiter beside her, and opened her lips slightly, "This painting belongs to them. You can contact them directly after the exhibition."

After that, Ruan Liuzheng looked deeply at the works on the wall, and there was a faint light flickering in her cold eyes.

She glanced at Fu Yanci and the other two lightly, then turned around and walked slowly towards the next exhibition area.

Her expression was cold, her back was straight, and every step she took was confident and decisive.

Just like the white magnolia that would rather break than bend on the branch, tough but not without pride.

Fu Yanci and the other two stood there, staring at Ruan Liuzheng's back as he left in a leisurely manner. Their faces were like overturned palettes.

Constantly changing, but there was never a trace of gentleness.

Bai Huanqing pursed her lips, she raised her eyes to look at Fu Yanci who was still staring at Ruan Liuzheng, and a hint of viciousness flashed across her clear eyes.

She unconsciously clenched her palms, a trace of sadness visible on her face. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she suddenly sobbed softly.

Her pure and charming eyebrows drooped slightly, and her pitiful appearance was truly pitiful.

As expected, Fu Yanci's attention was immediately drawn to Bai Huanqing.

He frowned, and a hint of pity flashed in his cold eyes. Subconsciously lowering his voice, "Huanqing, what's wrong with you?"

"Is this painting not to your liking? It doesn't matter. The exhibition will end soon, and we can still choose carefully."

Fu Yanci leaned forward slightly, his low voice mixed with a hint of gentle coaxing.

His eyes were even more indescribably gentle and doting.

Bai Huanqing heard this, and her eyebrows flickered imperceptibly. She shook her head slightly, and the tears in the corners of her eyes continued to flow from her eyes like beads with a broken string.

Beautiful and fragile.

Seeing this, Fu Yanci's expression became even softer, and a hint of heartache appeared in his dark eyes. His Adam's apple rolled slightly, "Is it because of Ruan Liuzheng?"

Bai Huanqing didn't say anything, but just leaned lightly on Fu Yanci. She raised her eyes, revealing her red eyes from crying, with a hint of water in her eyes.

But even so, she didn't look embarrassed at all, let alone ugly, but instead added a touch of fragile beauty to her.

Bai Huanqing bit her lip, and worry filled her innocent eyes, "Brother Yanci, I'm just worried about Sister Liuzheng." "

Anyway, she and we have known each other for so many years, and during the time I was abroad, she took care of you wholeheartedly and accompanied you through that difficult time. Now, she..."

Bai Huanqing's tone suddenly paused, as if she remembered something sad. Her eyes were instantly filled with tears, and her gentle voice became slightly hoarse.

"Brother Yanci, I'm really worried that she's going further and further down the wrong path, and getting deeper and deeper into trouble. Whenever I think of this, I..."

Bai Huanqing lowered her eyes sadly, her thin shoulders shrugged slightly, and she was obviously too sad to speak.

Fu Yanci stretched out his hand and gently put his arm around Bai Huanqing's shoulders, his expression distressed and helpless.

He raised his eyes slightly, and glanced deeply at the direction where Ruan Liuzheng left, then sighed, his low voice mixed with a strong sense of comfort.

"Huanqing, sometimes we don't need to be too kind. She treated you like that, so why should you worry about her."

Fu Yanci stretched out his hand and gently wiped the tears that kept flowing out of Bai Huanqing's eyes. His eyes were doting, and there was unspeakable patience between his stern brows.

He continued, "It hurts your eyes, don't cry. Don't worry, I promise you, if Ruan Liuzheng ever comes to me for help, or if she's truly abandoned by someone, I will definitely help her and do everything in my power to help her. Even for your sake, I won't stand idly by."

Bai Huanqing looked up with sobs. "Really?"

Seeing her nose and eyes red from crying, Fu Yanci shook his head helplessly, but his dark eyes were filled with heartache.

He nodded and said, "When has Brother Yanci ever lied to you?"

"You, you're just too soft-hearted."

Fu Yanci tightened his grip around Bai Huanqing. Although he was accusing her, his cold eyes were filled with doting.

Bai Huanqing curled her lips, finally breaking into a smile. She raised her arms to hug Fu Yanci's waist, snuggling into his arms with a smile on her face.

Her heart and eyes were filled with happiness and admiration, but there was a slight glint in her eyes.

After Ruan Liuzheng broke away from Fu Yanci and the others, she strolled along, her steps leisurely and unhurried.

But she didn't miss a single painting on the wall. Whenever she came across a work that

struck a chord or that she was impressed by, she would silently note the artist's name, intending to tell Rosent when she got back.

She'd have him contact someone and revitalize Sofan's design department.

After browsing two or three exhibition areas, Ruan Liuzheng glanced down at her watch, her delicate features furrowing slightly. She then pulled out her phone, only to find no messages.

The frown between her brows deepened.

Since Xie Qingcen hadn't contacted her yet, could it be that he'd truly encountered something difficult?

Ruan Liuzheng's lips curled slightly, and a hint of worry involuntarily crossed her eyes.

However, just as she was considering whether to call Xie Qingcen to inquire, her vision suddenly went dark.

A tall figure had appeared before her, looming over her like a dark cloud.

At the same time, the tip of her nose smelled a faint scent of agarwood, which seemed to be there but could not be ignored.

Ruan Liuzheng's eyes were slightly startled.

She raised her eyes and looked up at the person who came, and the corners of her light pink lips were slightly raised.

She opened her lips and asked, "When did you come, and why didn't you send me a message?"

Xie Qingcen's lips curled up slightly, and a soft color appeared in his dark eyes. He reached out and held Ruan Liuzheng's palm, and said in a clear voice, "I've been here for a while."

"I just ran into an uncle from a family friend, so I was delayed for some time. Do you want to come with me to meet him?"

Xie Qingcen raised his long eyebrows slightly, and his delicate eyebrows slowly stretched out, his eyes inquiring but not strong.

Ruan Liuzheng was stunned.

She pursed her lips and thought for a while, then held Xie Qingcen's hand with her backhand, nodded and said, "Then go and meet him."

Although she and Xie Qingcen had been together for a short time, Xie Qingcen had given her enough respect in the past week.

This was something she had never felt when she was with Fu Yanci.

Therefore, Ruan Liuzheng did not mind being more tolerant towards Xie Qingcen.

After all, he was just an elder from a family of old friends, so it would not hurt to meet him.

Ruan Liuzheng followed Xie Qingcen around the gallery, turning left and right and entering a lounge.

The lounge was spacious, but there was a glass wall from which one could see the entire central exhibition area.

Ruan Liuzheng was attracted by the wall as soon as she entered.

She stared at the people coming and going in the exhibition area, and the corners of her light pink lips unconsciously pursed.

It seemed that the people in the lounge could see outside, but the people in the exhibition area could not see what was happening inside the lounge.

It was a one-way peeping wall.

Ruan Liuzheng's expression froze, and her beautiful eyebrows twisted into a ball.

It was quite unfortunate that when she had just tricked Fu Yanci and Bai Huanqing, she was in the central exhibition area in front of her.

So...

Ruan Liuzheng suddenly raised her head and looked at Xie Qingcen in front of her, and a hint of chill appeared in her cold eyes.

She asked in a calm voice, "Did you see what happened just now?"

Xie Qingcen smiled and nodded without denying it.

It was too late to quibble now.

Besides, from the moment he decided to bring Ruan Liuzheng here, he had never thought of hiding anything.

Only unconditional trust and honesty can support them to go further.
