Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 109 Are You Secretly in Love with My Fiancé?
"Jiang Rourou, no one in our family has died, why are you crying and sobbing in broad daylight? It's bad luck!"

"I..." Jiang Rourou bit her lip and retorted, "What's it to you!"

Nan Wu smiled and crossed her arms, looking as if she could see right through her. "Oh, so you didn't break up with your boyfriend, did you? What happened? Were you dumped by some guy?"

"You're the one who got dumped by a man, Nan Wu, don't go too far!" Jiang Rourou was already in a bad mood, and being humiliated by Nan Wu like this made her even more furious.

Jiang Xue pulled her back, winked at her, then turned to Nan Wu with an apologetic smile, "Xiao Wu, Rou Rou's clothing store had a bit of a run of bad luck today, she's not in a good mood, don't worry about it!"

Nan Wu wouldn't tolerate her bad habit, and snorted coldly, "Go cry in your room, don't disturb others!"

Don't think she doesn't know anything; she heard every single word just now.

It turns out that Xiao Jiayang's affair didn't hurt Jiang Rourou, but it did infuriate her. That's funny.

"You're right, I'll take her back to her room right now!"

Jiang Xue tugged at her a few times, but Jiang Rourou twisted her arm away, growling at Nan Wu's retreating figure, "Nan Wu, I really don't know what you have to be so proud of? Maybe you don't even know how many women Jia Yang has outside? Let me tell you right now, you don't even deserve a ranking. He married you just out of filial piety. You really think you're something special? You..."

Nan Wu had already stepped onto the stairs when she heard this, she suddenly stopped and turned around, her eyes as sharp as blades shooting over. Jiang Rourou stopped abruptly, her voice choked, and her momentum vanished instantly.

"Jiang Rourou, what's going on with my fiancé outside? Is it any of your business to tattle on him? Oh, do you have a crush on my fiancé?"

Jiang Rourou looked around guiltily, "What...what are you saying?"

Nan Wu pretended to breathe a sigh of relief, "Then I'll be careful. Since there's no problem, Jiang Rourou, don't focus on other people's men all day long. It's easy for people to misunderstand. Oh, by the way, as for my fiancée having affairs, I'm happy to!"

Jiang Rourou's eyes widened in disbelief. "You, you can even accept this?"

Nan Wu chuckled, "What's so unacceptable about that? Men work so hard outside, this is a way for them to relieve stress. Anyway, it doesn't affect my marriage to him, so why shouldn't I accept it?"

Even after the door to Nan Wu's room closed, the disbelief on Jiang Rourou's face did not disappear.

Jiang Xue then lectured her daughter, "Did you hear that, Rou Rou? Learn from her, take it easy, it's nothing. What's the big deal about personal feelings and love? Only I am the one who matters!"

After taking a shower, Nan Wu lay on the bed, feeling beautiful. Strangely, even though she had used shower gel, she could still faintly smell a comforting scent of Xiao Shen on her body. It was a very high-end woody perfume that seemed to have seeped into her bones and wouldn't dissipate.

With her eyes closed, Nan Wu couldn't sleep. She thought of her grandmother. It was all Xiao Shen's fault. If it weren't for him, she might have already taken her grandmother away from here.

The Xiao family has announced that the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Xiao family suddenly left the wedding due to a recurring illness. She is currently recuperating at home, and the wedding will continue once she recovers.

As for when it will continue, the Xiao family has not made a statement.

This was agonizing for Nanwu. Not only did she not marry into the Xiao family, but the real Nanwu also did not return, meaning that her plan to take her grandmother away was once again put on hold.

She needed to quickly come up with a way to speed up the plan.

At the same time, she thought of another person, Xiao Ruonan's bodyguard, A Lie.

The sudden appearance of Ah Lie made her suspicious. Coincidence? She wasn't a three-year-old. Ah Lie had undeniably helped them a great deal along the way, safely bringing her and Su Wen back—that wasn't an undeniable fact. So, who exactly was this Ah Lie, who felt both familiar and strange? And why had he helped them?
Ningcheng at night is a vibrant city of lights and bustling activity, a place that is both earthly and heavenly.

Xiao Ruonan mingled with a group of men and women in a private room at a bar. Those who could hang out with the fifth young lady of the Xiao family were all well-known rich and powerful second-generation heirs in the circle. However, the Xiao family still had the highest status. As soon as she entered, she was surrounded by everyone like a star.

After eating, drinking, and having fun, a pink-haired girl set her sights on the man standing next to Xiao Ruonan.

"Fifth Miss, is this handsome guy wearing a mask someone you brought? Even without covering his face, just looking at his physique, you can tell how good-looking he is. I've never seen him before!"

“You mean him? He’s my bodyguard!” Xiao Ruonan replied in a moment.

Other girls immediately became excited, "Even a bodyguard is so handsome, Miss Fifth, you have such high standards!"

"Yeah, yeah, I think he looks like a certain celebrity, which celebrity was he again?"

"Alright, no matter how handsome he is, he's not yours. Hurry up and wipe your drool!"

Everyone laughed.

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Xiao Ruonan suddenly had a whim and gestured to A Lie with her chin, "Why don't you quickly introduce yourself to all the young masters and ladies?"

"Yes!" A-Lie took two steps to the center, his posture straight and his back upright, exuding an unruly arrogance and wildness. "My name is A-Lie, and I am the Fifth Miss's bodyguard!"

He bowed and withdrew cleanly and efficiently, yet showed absolute obedience to his master. Who wouldn't love such a subordinate?

The girls were all incredibly jealous. "Fifth Miss, are there any bodyguards like that left? Introduce me to one!"

Some people were even whispering to each other, and their lewd remarks could be heard several meters away.

Ah Lie frowned.

The pink-haired girl couldn't take her eyes off Xiao Ruonan. She had an idea. She moved closer to Xiao Ruonan and shook her arm. "Fifth Miss, didn't you say you liked the Corgi that my grandfather gave me? How about we make a trade? You give me your bodyguard, and I'll give you my Corgi?"

"Huh? You want my bodyguard?" Xiao Ruonan asked in surprise.

"What, you're reluctant to part with your bodyguard?"

Xiao Ruonan glanced at A Lie expressionlessly and laughed dismissively, "How could that be? He's just a bodyguard. Don't you know I love Corgis? You'd better keep your word, or I'm done being friends with you!"

"Okay, then it's settled. I'll be taking your bodyguard with me tonight, okay?" The pink-haired girl looked at Ah Lie expectantly.

Ah Lie, standing tall and straight like a pine tree, clenched his fists, his eyes filled with gloom.

These rich kids made a ruckus for a while before dispersing. Xiao Ruonan hadn't drunk much, but her steps were still unsteady. She staggered over to A Lie, pointed at the pink-haired girl, and said, "You'll be with her from now on, understand?"

Ah Lie's brows furrowed deeply.

She just sold herself like that? He's not even worth as much as a dog?
"What? You're still not happy? You're not even listening to me anymore?" Seeing that Ah Lie didn't respond for a long time, Xiao Ruonan took two more steps forward. She was only 1.61 meters tall, and when facing Ah Lie, who was over 1.8 meters tall, especially at close range, she had to look up. In this way, all her momentum was gone, and she looked a bit like a child arguing with an adult.
