Stunning beauty, the hero of Collapse is happy again

Chapter 260: Paranoid Warlord and Vengeful Undercover (19)

In the end, the number of people going to the back garden changed from Ruan Guannan alone to him and Liu Mengmeng alone.

After spending some time together, Liu Mengmeng also discovered that Ruan Guannan was shy and not very talkative.

So along the way, she was the one who kept chattering and bringing up topics, sharing with Ruan Guannan her experience of studying abroad.

Ruan Guannan listened very seriously, and Liu Mengmeng spoke even more happily.

Ruan Guannan didn't expect things to develop in this direction. When Liu Mengmeng approached her at first, she thought that this girl had the same personality as Pei Yue, and was Pei Sizhe's fiancée, and came here specifically to cause trouble for her.

I didn't expect Liu Mengmeng to have such a personality, but it's better to have less trouble than more. Now Liu Mengmeng did not show any malice. On the contrary, she was unusually enthusiastic towards her. Ruan Guannan followed her wishes and started chatting with her.

The two of them went to the back garden while chatting, and seeing that there were people there, they decided not to go to crowded places.

When Ruan Guannan appeared, there was another small commotion in the back garden. Most of the people here were not in the front hall at the beginning, so naturally they didn't know Ruan Guannan's origins.

After secretly observing for a while, several young men came over, ready to get to know Ruan Guannan and make friends.

Before he could even open his mouth, Liu Mengmeng stood up and stood in front of Ruan Guannan, saying coldly to the group of people:

"Please change the place. There are only ladies here. It's not convenient for you to come here."

Liu Mengmeng had long seen through the thoughts of these people. She also knew a few of them. They were all uneducated young men who were spoiled by their families. She couldn't let this group of people get close to Guannan.

Someone recognized Liu Mengmeng's identity, but did not want to embarrass himself and left in embarrassment.

Looking at the little girl protecting her from behind, Ruan Guannan felt very complicated and had a hint of subtle emotions.

After her family got into trouble, Ruan Guannan had hardly felt such direct protection and kindness. Apart from constant training and fighting, her only motivation to live was revenge.

For this, she can pay any price, even her life.

Now seeing Liu Mengmeng, Ruan Guannan felt a little warm in his heart.

She took the girl's wrist and pulled her to sit next to her with a faint smile on her face. "They have already left. Thank you for your help, Mengmeng."

Liu Mengmeng's eyes suddenly lit up, she pulled her hair a little embarrassedly, and said with a smile:

"I brought you here, so of course I won't let anything happen to you."

The most important thing is that she felt that group of people were just too low-class, and she couldn't let such a beautiful woman be targeted by those trash.

Looking at her sparkling eyes, Ruan Guannan smiled more sincerely. Thinking of her engagement with Pei Sizhe, and that he would solve Pei Sizhe sooner or later, he asked with some doubts:

"Does Mengmeng like the second young master of the Marshal's Mansion?"

Liu Mengmeng was stunned by her sudden question. After thinking about it carefully, she nodded and shook her head.

"Not really. Although I have known him since childhood, I went abroad to study a long time ago, so I am not particularly familiar with him."

"As for the engagement, firstly, I thought he was good-looking, and secondly, my family also had some considerations, so we got engaged."

Liu Mengmeng shrugged and explained helplessly.

In this world, it is difficult for women. But Liu Mengmeng is very lucky. Her family is well-off and has a strong background, which is enough to support her happy growth and study abroad.

She never had the idea of ​​finding someone she liked from the beginning. If the person she likes is the best, then that's fine. If not, then it's fine too. As long as he or she can help the family, she has no objection.

Ruan Guannan looked at the carefree smile on her face and felt a slight movement in his heart. He didn't expect that the girl who looked heartless and had a sweet smile actually had a very open mind.

She thought about it and said, "I don't ask for a happy marriage, but I ask for the other person's character. Mengmeng is such a good girl, she should find a man with good character."

Ruan Guannan did not mention Pei Sizhe directly, but his words implied some other meanings. Liu Mengmeng understood it almost immediately. She wanted to ask if there was something wrong with Pei Sizhe, but when she thought of her situation in the Marshal's Mansion, Liu Mengmeng did not ask.

She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then smiled sweetly and said, "What you said makes sense. Well, forget it, let's not talk about it anymore."

Liu Mengmeng waved her hands. It was obvious that this marriage was not what she expected.

The two were chatting in the garden, and when they vaguely heard a noisy noise coming from the front hall, they guessed that the meeting was over.

Liu Mengmeng took her arm and prepared to go back. Just as they were about to enter the front hall, someone accidentally bumped into Ruan Guannan's shoulder when passing by. Before she could say anything, Liu Mengmeng spoke anxiously:

"Guan Nan, are you okay?"

Ruan Guannan shook his head, and when he looked again, the person who hit him had already disappeared.

She quietly clenched the thing in her hand and put it casually into her handbag, then returned to the front hall with a gloomy expression, and saw that everyone in the conference room had come out.

Before Liu Mengmeng could say anything, she heard Pei Yue's voice, "Mengmeng, where did you go? I looked for you for a long time but couldn't find you."

Pei Yue walked over, took Liu Mengmeng and walked away, pretending that she hadn't seen Ruan Guannan. Liu Mengmeng turned around and smiled apologetically at Ruan Guannan, and was then forcefully pulled away by Pei Yue.

Pei Yue certainly saw Liu Mengmeng standing with his father's ninth concubine, but she was very annoyed with his father's concubines. As women of the new era, they did not think about improving themselves but just wanted to rely on men to survive, which was really a disgrace to them as women.

Seeing Pei Yue’s arrogant expression, Ruan Guannan simply smiled and ignored her.

Pei Yue is Marshal Pei's beloved daughter. She has studied abroad and received an open Western education. Her superior family conditions have broadened her horizons, so she is very resistant to the backward ideas of this era.

But not all women in this era have the same luck and opportunities as her. She looks down on those women who are servile and fawning, but is very proud of others' fawning on her, and she is both powerful and independent.

No matter what Pei Yue is like, as long as she can't stop her from taking revenge, Ruan Guannan will have nothing to do with her.

When the banquet was over, Ruan Guannan went back to the Marshal's Mansion with the first wife. Marshal Pei and his men had follow-up matters to deal with, so they did not go with them.

It was not until she returned to her own courtyard that Ruan Guannan took out the note from her handbag. There was only one sentence on it: See you on the third floor of the theater in three days.
