Chapter 10: He Yanci's straight spine loosened……

Wen Ruan found that He Yanci was not an ordinary person who loved to boss others around.

He ordered a bowl of spare rib congee for her, along with three corn dumplings and even arranged a fried egg. After the meal, there was also a cup of warm milk.

Under He Yanci's "tyranny", she had no choice but to eat, and she was stuffed. Wen Ruan had always paid attention to maintaining her figure. However, He Yanci was subtly forcing her to eat.

Fortunately, she didn't have to eat like this every day. Otherwise, in just a few months, her figure would surely be ruined.

The key point was that He Yanci, the instigator, didn't eat any of it himself. He sat opposite her, with his long arms and legs, flipping through the restaurant's menu.

One second ago, Wen Ruan was silently sighing that this man was so elegant even when looking at a menu, as if he were sitting in an office reviewing documents worth hundreds of millions. The next second, no matter how elegant and noble He Yanci's actions were, she couldn't appreciate them anymore because he had just ordered all this food for her with a few gestures.

She was too full. She had to buy some medicine to aid digestion, or she would be extremely uncomfortable.

After they left the restaurant, Wen Ruan thought about it and decided that she still needed to find an opportunity to talk to him.

It wasn't a good place to talk on the main road.

Wen Ruan pointed to a nice-looking coffee shop not far away.

"Mr. He, let me treat you to a cup of coffee."

He Yanci nodded slightly, probably knowing the reason why Wen Ruan wanted to treat him to coffee.

Wen Ruan didn't like sweet food because she was afraid of getting fat. She always had her coffee without sugar. He Yanci also didn't like sweet food. In this regard, the two of them were quite in tune.

Wen Ruan held the coffee cup with both hands, considering how to start the conversation.

"Tell me about your decision." He Yanci stirred his coffee gracefully and brought up the topic first.

Since He Yanci had started the conversation, Wen Ruan didn't feel it was too difficult to speak. "After considering it, I think what you said on the top floor of the hospital makes some sense."

"What did I say?" He Yanci took a sip of coffee gracefully and said in a calm voice.

"......" Wen Ruan was at a loss for words. She had reason to suspect that He Yanci was doing it on purpose. But what could she do? Now she needed something from him.

Wen Ruan quietly took a deep breath and said with great patience, "Grandpa's current condition really isn't very good. Maybe, as you said, holding a happy event would be beneficial to him."

"Oh." He Yanci's straight back relaxed a bit.

Oh?

Is that all?

It seemed that he wasn't surprised by her decision.

He Yanci noticed that Wen Ruan seemed to have something more to say. "Is there anything else you want to say?"

Wen Ruan tightened her grip on the spoon, and her pink fingers turned slightly pale. After a moment, she said, "He Yanci, find some time to have our assets notarized." Since their union had no emotional foundation, who knew when it might break up? She didn't want to have any asset disputes with him.

"Are you afraid that I'll encroach on your assets?" There was a hint of a smile in He Yanci's deep eyes, and his calm and cold voice carried a bit of teasing.

"No! You know that's not what I mean." What was she afraid of? She had a considerable amount of assets. Her father had given her a large number of company shares and also invested in many industries and real estates for her. Even if she didn't work for the rest of her life, she couldn't squander it all.

Compared with He Yanci's personal assets, hers were still not comparable. If their personal assets were combined, it would be He Yanci who would suffer losses. She asked him to have the assets notarized for his own good, but he was making such a joke with her, not understanding her good intentions.

How could He Yanci not understand Wen Ruan's thoughts? He was just teasing her. He smiled faintly. "Okay. I'll listen to you."

The matter was settled, and there was no more topic to talk about.

Wen Ruan stirred her coffee, her bright eyes moved, and she looked relaxed. She stood up and extended her hand to He Yanci. "I'm sorry to trouble you." It was just a polite remark. What could he be wronged about?

Hearing Wen Ruan's business-like tone, He Yanci had no intention of shaking her hand at all. He didn't even lift his eyelids. "I won't myself."

"?"

Wen Ruan didn't understand what He Yanci meant. He wouldn't explain it to her, and she didn't bother to delve deeper. She silently retracted her hand.

The two of them hadn't really come to the coffee shop just for coffee. They didn't stay in the coffee shop for long. Wen Ruan went to the cashier to pay. Just as she scanned the code.

Two large red banknotes were placed on the cashier counter, which He Yanci took out from his wallet.

Well, if he wanted to pay, let him. It was just two cups of coffee, and the big shot had money.

Wen Ruan silently put away her phone. After leaving the coffee shop, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit delicate.

Wen Ruan silently followed behind He Yanci. After walking for a while, Wen Ruan realized that it wasn't the way back to the hospital. The direction was towards a star-rated hotel.

They had just decided to get married, and now they were going to a hotel?

Was the development too fast?

Wen Ruan was in a state of confusion. Should she refuse or not?

She inadvertently remembered Tang Suiyi's words: It wouldn't be a loss to sleep with this man.

He was tall, with long legs and a narrow waist. When he made large movements with his arms, the muscles on his waist were faintly visible as his shirt clung to his body. It really wouldn't be a loss to sleep with this man.

Wen Ruan's thoughts drifted a bit.

Before she knew it, they had arrived at the revolving door of the hotel. He Yanci stopped, with no intention of going in. He turned to look at Wen Ruan. "Grandpa Wen won't wake up anytime soon. You can rest here. I'll stay at the hospital. I'll contact you immediately if there's any situation."

After He Yanci's words, Wen Ruan's face instantly became hot with embarrassment. She felt so awkward.

He had kindly brought her to the hotel to rest, but she had actually... thought of those shameful things!

It was bad enough that she had those thoughts, and she even coveted his body.

Wen Ruan tugged at the corner of her lips. "Thank you, He Yanci."

"No more 'Mr. He'?" He Yanci smiled.

"Huh?"

"Get some rest early. Call me if you need anything." He Yanci made a gesture of making a phone call.

"Okay." After thinking for a while, Wen Ruan added, "He Yanci, if you meet someone you like, just let me know."

In their circle, there were too many people tied together for the sake of interests. Although there was no actual interest binding between the two of them, like other arranged marriages, they had no emotional foundation.

This kind of relationship was very fragile. There were many cases of separation, and there were also many cases where people made a mess of things over assets.

Of course, there were even more couples who were polite to each other on the surface but went their own ways in private. She didn't want to live that kind of life where she had to put on a mask and pretend.

This was the only way she could think of to let both of them maintain their dignity.

Hearing this, a trace of coldness appeared on He Yanci's handsome face, and he smiled. "Miss Wen, are you telling me that you allow me to cheat in the future?"

"Ah?" Wen Ruan really hadn't considered it that thoroughly. "Cheating in marriage" would be bad for He Yanci's reputation, and the person he liked would become the "mistress". Although Wen Ruan couldn't figure He Yanci out, after several contacts with him, she could feel that he was a man who would protect those he cared about. How could such a man let the woman he liked be wronged, let alone bear the reputation of being a "mistress"?

She had been thoughtless, but there was still a solution.

For example, not getting a marriage certificate?
