Someone behind her called her at this time.

"Sister."

Familiar titles, familiar voices. Ruan Shu turned his head and was surprised to see Lin Pu standing not far away, tall, dressed in a formal suit, with a white shirt and a light gray suit vest, looking very handsome and chic at a glance.

His smile was as bright and clean as ever, like a big boy, but it added a touch of brilliance to the gray sky.

Such a Lin Pu......

In an instant, he walked up to her and asked with a smile, "Sister, didn't you say you wouldn't come to participate before?" ”

She was dressed today in a modest blue dress that framed her figure, knee-length, and her hair pinned back with a broken diamond hairpin.

"Your dad called me the night before." Ruan Shu explained, "I thought about it carefully, anyway, if I have time today, I will stop by to have a look." ”

She stretched out her hand and pressed his collar, her phoenix eyes stared straight into his eyes, and praised: "The person who wants to be a brother-in-law today is very handsome." ”

Lin Pu glanced at her small actions, slightly flattered, and smiled like she was about to shine again: "Thank you, sister." ”

"What about the eldest uncle and the eldest aunt?" Ruan Shu withdrew his hand and looked around symbolically, "When I entered the door, I only saw people from the Tan family. I haven't said hello to my uncle and aunt yet. ”

"Aunt Wang is accompanying the eldest sister, and my father is also entertaining guests." Lin Pu said, "I was originally pulled by my father, and as soon as I saw you, sister, I pretended to go to the bathroom and slipped over." ”

Putting away his sad face, Ruan Shu pursed a shallow smile at the corner of his lips and teased, "Isn't your point just to indirectly tell me that you are busy today?" ”

"Of course not." Lin Pu shook his head slightly, suddenly leaned over to her, and leaned closer to her, "My point is that nothing is more important than my sister."

Probably because it had been confirmed that he was not Lin Pu but a strong son, in the face of his deliberate closeness, Ruan Shu's mind could not be as stable as before, and he subconsciously tilted his head slightly to avoid his breath.

In the next moment, Lin Pu pulled her forearm and said calmly: "Let's go, sister, didn't you say that you want to congratulate my father?" ”

"Hmm." With a slight wave of eyes, Ruan Shu pretended to brush his hair and broke away from his hand without a trace.

Lin Pu still walked side by side with her unharmed, and roughly complained to her about the hard work of preparing for the wedding in the past two days, and finally lowered his voice, "That eldest brother-in-law is quite unreliable." ”

"What's wrong?"

"That's it on our Lin family's side, the eldest sister's personality was originally closed, but the Tan family's side is the same, hiding no one. The marriage of the two families is all done by the adults of the two families, the eldest sister and the eldest brother-in-law do not show up, and the wedding dress and dress are also separated on both sides. ”

Lin Pu's tone was full of dissatisfaction.

Ruan Shu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows - it sounds like this, the former young master Tan Dashao has become as gloomy as Lin Xiang?

"At least the wedding photos were taken." She tugged at the corners of her lips.

Lin Pu's eyes revealed a touch of strangeness: "Sister, don't you think the wedding dress looks very unnatural?" ”

It's unnatural. The portraits are all distorted. However, Ruan Shu felt that what he wanted to say didn't seem to be this, and asked puzzled: "What's wrong with the wedding photos?" ”

"Synthetic." Lin Pu informed.

Ruan Shu: "......"

Lin Pu shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he was also very speechless.

Ruan Shu pursed her lips.

Lin Chengzhi's figure soon entered the field of vision, and he was in good spirits in his suit, greeting five or six young people.

Coincidentally, almost all of these five or six people Ruan Shu knew, because they were part of Fu Lingyuan's former group of friends, and the two most familiar were none other than Shan Minghan and Zhou Rui, the son of the political commissar's family. Of course, Shan Minghan's side is indispensable to Zhang Weimo.

The first to find her and greet her was also Zhang Weimo: "Mr. Ruan, I guess I will definitely be able to see you again on today's occasion." ”

Zhang Weimo, who is dressed up, is a different taste, not a female college student with little soup and little water, not a vigorous and capable workplace beauty, and her light purple dress makes her full of woman's charm. Standing with Shan Minghan at this moment is indeed extremely right.

Compared with Shan Minghan's hostility and the indifference of several others, Zhou Rui's attitude was much more normal, and she was as friendly as when she was still by Fu Lingyuan's side, and greeted her friendly: "Second Miss Lin, I haven't seen each other for a long time." ”

It's been a long time. I haven't seen it since I left the club, and the last time I met it in the hotel, Zhou Rui happened to be not among them. His last impression was that Fu Lingyuan and Jiao Yang were playing polo against each other, and he pretended to fall off his horse to end the game and became a peacemaker. That incident was very good for Ruan Shu, and he smiled back sincerely: "It's been a long time, Gongzi Zhou." ”

Lin Chengzhi interjected with a smile at this time and asked, "Xiao Shu, it turns out that you and Zhou Gongzi also have a relationship?" ”

Ruan Shu lowered his eyes slightly, raised them again, and said indifferently: "When I followed Fu San before, I was fortunate to have dinner with them a few times. ”

Fu Lingyuan seemed to be a forbidden word between them, and as soon as the words came out, she immediately noticed that the expressions of the sons and brothers beside Zhou Rui were slightly sick.

Lin Chengzhi, who was observant, glanced over, and seemed to be very unhappy that she messed up the atmosphere.

Zhou Rui's reaction was different from the rest, and he asked curiously: "Do you still have contact with Fu San now?" ”

Ruan Shu shook his head with a light smile.

Zhou Rui regretted: "I will miss him today." ”

Saying that, he also raised his hand to put his hand on Shan Minghan's shoulder, and sighed: "Old Shan, you said yes, right?" ”

Shan Minghan's reaction was very flat, "um" for a moment, nothing else.

Ruan Shu pondered in his heart, "Just one of him", but heard Zhou Rui wave his hand in a certain direction: "Hey, Jiaoda, this way!" ”

The entire Haicheng surnamed Jiao, apart from the mayor's family, who else can there be......

In an instant, I saw Jiao Yang trotting over, slapped his palm with Zhou Rui's outstretched hand, and explained: "I just had an urgent mission, but fortunately I was in time!" ”

Zhou Rui took the lead in coaxing and teasing: "Yo yo yo, it's okay, who doesn't know that your anti-drug brigade is the busiest and most beautiful now, destroying the entire Dragon and Tiger State, copying several drug dens, showing off what kind of strength I will go." ”

"What's the scenery?" Jiao Yang turned his head to look at Ruan Shu, don't mean to taste, "It's all small minions, aren't the big bosses still jumping?" ”

Several people were instantly embarrassed.

Ruan Shu smiled lightly as usual, without the slightest wave, after all, in the eyes of outsiders, she and Fu Lingyuan had already broken up. At the same time, her gaze quietly swept over Zhang Weimo, who was smiling and silent beside Shan Minghan, and suddenly had an idea in her heart: Since Fu Lingyuan knew that Zhang Weimo was Lu Zhenhua's spy who went deep into the red circle, did he also borrow Zhang Weimo's eyes to prove to Lu Zhenhua that he and the Fu family, and even his friends in the past, were indeed broken?

As soon as the thought came out, Ruan Shu couldn't help but sigh silently, how much thought did that man put into and how many nets did he spread? Really do everything you can to use your strength...... How much brain capacity should it be to withstand his calculations everywhere and all the time......

Zhou Rui came out to adjust the atmosphere again, punched Jiao Yang's shoulder and reminded him: "You haven't changed your clothes, go for a walk, pick up, the best man group will be handsome in a while!" ”

Groomsmen? Ruan Shuding fixed his gaze and carefully swept the clothes of several men, only then did he notice that they were all dressed in the same way.

Suddenly he forgot about this stubble, Tan Fei didn't just play with them. Therefore, Fu Lingyuan had just returned to Haicheng from abroad, and several people specially set up a card game to pick him up.

Over there, Zhou Rui turned around and said goodbye to them politely: "Uncle Lin, Miss Lin, a few of us will go to prepare first, and we will find Tan Fei in a while." ”

"Hey, Zhou Gongzi is polite, don't delay you, go quickly!"

Lin Chengzhi's waist was arched at ninety degrees, and the smile was all piled up on his face, Ruan Shu could fully understand his mood at the moment, and most of them were secretly happy about the Tan family's family business in his heart, and he was almost involved with most of the high-ranking officials in Haicheng.

It wasn't until a group of people completely disappeared that Lin Chengzhi was reluctant to withdraw his gaze.

Ruan Shu took the opportunity to congratulate: "Congratulations to the eldest uncle, Lin Xiang is really well married." ”

The joy on Lin Chengzhi's eyebrows did not decrease, looking at her, but his expression pretended to be regretful: "Xiao Shu, if you don't get divorced, you and the Xiangxiang sisters can really shine on the lintel together." Our Lin family can eat both black and white. ”

In the last half of the sentence, he deliberately lowered the volume because he was concerned about the occasion.

Ruan Shu unabashedly ridiculed when he heard this: "The eldest uncle's appetite is really big, are you sure that the Lin family has that blessing to swallow?" ”

Lin Chengzhi coughed dryly, didn't pick up her stubble, seemed to have just remembered suddenly, and said: "Since you're here, let's go and get together with Xiangxiang, you haven't seen each other for a long time, right?" When Xiangxiang marries into the Tan family, it will be more difficult for you to meet in the future. Xiangxiang said that she misses you very much, and asked me to see you and let you go to see her. ”

The whole polite words, especially the last sentence, made Ruan Shuzhi frown, how could Lin Xiang ......?

However, she didn't mind seeing Lin Xiang in private. Smiling, she said hypocritically, "I miss her too." She's in the New Year's dressing room now? ”

Lin Chengzhi nodded: "In the innermost room on the fourth floor, Xiao Shu, go up by yourself, your aunt is also there." If you can't find it, ask the maid. ”

"Sister, I know the way, I'll take you for a ride." Lin Pu, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth to regain his sense of existence.

Lin Chengzhi frowned in response: "What do you bring?" Just said that going to the bathroom for so long? Come with me and continue to entertain guests. ”

Ruan Shu accosted: "Lin Pu, you should still study hard with your eldest uncle, there are many people with heads and faces today." Don't get into our women's pile. ”

Lin Pu scratched the back of his head, looking helpless, and said with concern: "Then sister, be careful by yourself." ”

"Uh-huh." In response, Ruan Shu followed the direction and went, and after entering the crowd of people in the welcoming hall, she glanced back, and did not see Lin Pu's figure again, she called one of Chen Qingzhou's subordinates who gave her to use: "Did you get in?" ”

"Lady is in."

Ruan Shu was not interested in knowing how he got in, and only ordered his request: "Keep an eye on him." Don't let him out of your sight throughout the wedding. ”

Putting away his mobile phone, Ruan Shu first asked the maid in the villa for a glass of water, hid in the corner sofa and sat down, and swallowed two cold medicines - it was really sick at the wrong time, and his head ached faintly.

He rubbed his temples with his eyelids closed, but he keenly felt as if someone was looking at him.

When he opened his eyes, he looked around suspiciously, and the guests were staggered, and there was no abnormality in his field of vision. Soon Ruan Shu reacted, probably the bodyguards who were following him. It's been too long since I had a small tail, and I can't get used to it for a while.

With a faint snort, Ruan Shu got up, and then slowly walked up the stairs.

The whole villa is very large, the decoration is low-key and luxurious, and there are many rooms, which are completely suitable for holding similar large-scale events.

Ruan Shu looked all the way to the fourth floor, stood at the door, sank his breath, and knocked on the door.

"May I ask ...... you?" The servant who answered the door did not know her.

"The bride's ...... Cousin. Ruan Shu froze for a moment, because it was really awkward to use this title for the first time in his life.

The servant turned back and asked what the people inside meant.

Ruan Shu's gaze was about to look in, and he was looking at the woman reflected in the mirror.

Nong was well-slender, her eyes were bright, her face was covered with makeup, her body was wrapped in a snow-white lace stand-up collar wedding dress, her hair was all coiled up, her forehead was exposed, and two handfuls of her ears were curled and drooping. Although Lin Xiang didn't look very bad before, the woman in front of her was indeed very different from the woman in Ruan Shu's impression of sitting in a wheelchair for many years and with gloomy cloaks.

The eyes are silently facing each other.

Ruan Shu pondered, after Lin Xiang's suicide attempt, she went to see Lin Xiang in the ward, so that Lin Xiang's emotional breakdown, there were four months apart, right? They only saw each other today.

Lin Xiang's eyes were not bright, and the uncontrollable fear that had been uncontrollable when he saw her for ten years was gone, as if he had no feelings for her. This change originated in the ward that day (see chapters 134-135).

Collecting his thoughts, Ruan Shu walked a few times, stopped behind Lin Xiang, and smiled lightly, but sincerely: "Congratulations." ”

Regardless of whether Lin Xiang really marries Tan Fei or not, at least marriage is another stage of life for Lin Xiang, and it is no longer stagnant. She should give blessings. But I can only squeeze out such a simple two words, and other dry and unnutritious politenesses don't seem to be necessary.

Lin Xiang was silent for a moment, and his tone was faint: "I thought you wouldn't come." ”

Being able to talk so calmly surprised Ruan Shu. Pulling the corners of her lips, she asked, "Do you want to see me?" Or don't you want to see me? ”

Lin Xiang did not respond.

Ruan Shu bent down slightly, leaned down, stared at her in the mirror with dark eyes, and said in a low voice: "Lin Xiang, I don't hate you anymore......"

She put her hands gently on her shoulders and said, "The last time I met, I said, it's been ten years, and I'm tired." Water under the bridge. I'm doing well now, and I hope your new life will be good as well. ”

Lin Xiang's eyes flickered slightly, and he muttered: "The next new life ......"

"Hmm." Ruan Shu said softly and did not say more. She didn't have sensational words, she didn't have a deep understanding of life, and the main thing she wanted to express when she came to see her today was the above sentences.

Standing up straight, she gently flicked the two locks of hair on her sideburns, and finally said with the surprise she had seen at first sight: "You are beautiful." ”

Lin Xiang's eyes were straight, as if she didn't like this compliment, or thought that she was deliberately mocking her, but after all, her expression didn't look particularly happy.

Whether she is happy or not is her own business, Ruan Shu thinks that she is sincere, and she does not have the expectation that she can accept it immediately, so she changed the topic and asked, "What about the eldest aunt?" Just now my uncle said she was also with you? Listen to Lin Pu, her due date is next month? ”

Seeing that Lin Xiang didn't speak, the servant on the side hurriedly replied: "Madame sat for a while, a little uncomfortable, and helped her to the guest room to rest first." ”

Ruan Shu bowed slightly, and looked back at Lin Xiang in the mirror: "Then I won't bother you, go down first, and wait for the wedding to start." ”

"Wait." Lin Xiang suddenly spoke out and stared at her, "Your words are finished, and my words are not finished yet." ”

"What do you want to say?" Ruan Shu asked.

Lin Xiang turned to the stylist and a few servants: "You guys go out first and wait outside." ”

Seeing this, Ruan Shu frowned, and the vigilance she had been accustomed to for many years made her wary, and generally this kind of situation where the two of them were alone was probably not good. was about to stop it, but she immediately found that although the others had gone out, they had not closed the door, and had left two servants at the door, Jiusi must have been secretly protecting her, and she was relieved. Turning his eyes to look back at Lin Xiang, he asked again, "What do you want to say?" ”

"Trouble, I'll pour a glass of water first. I'm a little thirsty. Lin Xiang gestured to a cup on the water dispenser with his eyes.

Ruan Shu stepped forward, grabbed the cup, and asked, "Do you want it hot, warm or cold?" ”

"Gentle." Lin Xiang said.

Ruan Shu first filled a little hot water, mixed some cold water, touched the wall of the cup to about the same temperature, and sent it to the dresser in front of her.

"Thank you." Lin Xiang lowered his eyes and glanced at the rippling and slightly moving water, took a sip, raised his head again, and asked, "Can you put on a lipstick for me?" ”

The lip prints remain on the wall of the cup, and the lip color does peel off a little. She did it on purpose. Ruan Shu's eyebrows furrowed: "What do you want to do?" ”

"Didn't you say you weren't to blame for the past?" Lin Xiang's expression was gloomy, "You're tired, I'm tired too." In the past few months, I have thought more thoroughly than you. You know, marrying the Tan family is more of my father's will. But for people like me, I couldn't find better conditions. Besides, I don't expect any love. The people of the Tan family are very good to me. That's why I agreed to get married, as you said, a new life. ”

The corners of her lips were torn apart, and she smiled suspiciously: "Bang me put on lipstick, and we reconcile." ”

Ruan Shuding stood still, distinguishing the authenticity of her expression.

"Don't want to?" Lin Xiang smiled wryly, "Then forget it......"

With that, she touched one lipstick on the dresser and touched up her own makeup.

Although she felt that the things she asked for were very deliberate and formal, she observed that now, Ruan Shu did not feel that there was anything too wrong.

Seeing that Lin Xiang's movements were a little clumsy, she pursed her lips, and finally stepped forward, took the lipstick from Lin Xiang's hand, and gently wiped her with a tissue first.

"Thank you." Because of standing and sitting, Lin Xiang looked up at her, his eyes were black, and he still didn't have any look.
