Kyoto kisses her

Chapter 95 No need to be so polite with me, brother.
At the dinner table, warm yellow lights gently shone down. Su Ruoyun was biting into a piece of bright red, tender duck rib in her bowl, the fresh and fragrant taste spreading on her tongue.

She was enjoying her meal when, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Su Mingyan leaning over, raising his long arm, and reaching his large, well-defined hand into the steaming clay pot to scoop out the rich and fragrant chicken soup.

She suddenly remembered something, stopped eating the duck chops, and poked her chopsticks into the bowl. "Brother, I went to Xiangshan Yayuan to look for you last night, why weren't you home?"

At the international tea party the day before yesterday, the organizers distributed some very unique refrigerator magnets.

This set of refrigerator magnets contains six pieces, each featuring a replica of a landmark building in Shanghai, surrounded by various types of tea leaves in different shapes. Each leaf looks lifelike, as if carrying a faint tea aroma, and they are arranged neatly in countless poses, creating an extremely beautiful sight.

Knowing that Su Mingyan had a hobby of collecting refrigerator magnets, she specially drove to Xiangshan Yayuan last night to deliver the entire set of exquisitely designed refrigerator magnets to him.

Unexpectedly, Su Mingyan was not at home. Su Ruoyun assumed he had a social engagement that night, but after asking the villa's servants, she learned that Su Mingyan had not returned to stay for several days.

Upon hearing this, Su Bu and Ms. Ming, who were not present at the table, also looked at Su Mingyan.

His expression remained calm, and his movements were still methodical as he focused on ladling chicken soup from the casserole, the steaming broth flowing down the rim of the ladle into the white porcelain bowl.

After carefully placing the white porcelain bowl on the dining table in front of him, Su Mingyan looked up, released the soup ladle from his hand and put it back into the casserole. His gaze was very calm, without any guilt at being exposed. His voice was low and steady, and he simply brushed it off as an explanation, "I've been busy these past few days and have been living at the company."

As he spoke, he picked up a spoon, dipped it into the scalding bowl, scooped up a spoonful of chicken soup, and slowly brought the spoon to his lips. He parted his thin lips slightly, took a small sip, swallowed the soup, and asked, "Did you come all this way to see me? Is there something you need?"

Su Ruoyun picked up a piece of vegetables with her chopsticks, put it in her bowl, and replied casually, "Oh, I brought back some unique refrigerator magnets from Shanghai. I sent them to you last night. Aren't these your favorite?"

Upon hearing this, Su Mingyan's deep eyes flickered slightly. He put down his chopsticks, picked up the serving chopsticks, and placed a piece of meat on Su Ruoyun's plate.

Su Ruoyun looked at the glistening piece of fatty meat in mid-air, feeling a little resistant, but she could only smile and politely say, "No need, brother, you can eat it yourself."

Su Mingyan: "You don't need to be so polite with me, brother."

"But, brother, you picked up the fatty meat." Su Ruoyun frowned slightly, looking at the oily piece of fatty meat with some difficulty, and kindly reminded him.

A silence fell over the air, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

"..." Su Mingyan.

……

Not long after the meal, Su Mingyan left quickly, claiming that he needed to go back and check the refrigerator magnets Su Ruoyun had given him.

Tonight, the moon is bright and the stars are few. The bright moonlight gently shines through the swaying treetops and onto the ground, where a few shadows linger and sway in the dappled light.

Su Ruoyun stood on the steps, leaning against the wall beside her, watching Su Mingyan get into the back seat of the Maybach. The driver started the engine, and the Maybach quickly drove out of the parking space and disappeared behind the locust tree at the end of the road in the blink of an eye, leaving only a wisp of exhaust fumes.

She frowned in confusion, her mind filled with doubt. Fridge magnets don't have legs, they're not going to run away, so there's no difference between looking at them a little earlier or a little later. She didn't know why Su Mingyan was in such a hurry to go back.

Ms. Ming also stood on the steps, right next to Su Ruojun, gazing thoughtfully at the cluster of blooming roses in the courtyard, their petals unfolding layer by layer.

After retiring, she loved tending to flowers and plants, filling the entire courtyard with them. After seeing Su Mingyan off, Su Ruoyun returned to the living room and lazily sprawled on the sofa, her long, slender legs draped over the armrests. Just then, Ms. Ming asked, "How are things going with your brother and that Miss Jiang from last time?"

The topic came up rather suddenly, and Su Ruoyun was momentarily at a loss for words, unsure how to respond.

On the one hand, she genuinely didn't know how things were progressing between the two of them; on the other hand, at the last art center auction, she seemed to have seen Su Mingyan and Jiang Xihan embracing each other intimately.

only……

She hesitated, but ultimately suppressed the second reason. After all, she had seen that Ms. Jiang seemed reluctant, so she only said "I don't know".

Seeing that Ms. Ming frowned slightly and then breathed a sigh of relief, Su Ruoyun offered to ask Su Mingyan on her behalf.

Before Su Ruoyun could even react, Ms. Ming readily agreed, "Okay, then it's all up to you. If you complete the task, Mom will cook you braised pork."

She smiled like a fox, her eyes full of cunning.

"..." Su Ruoyun.

A moment later, Su Ruoyun realized that she had been deeply deceived by Ms. Ming. However, since the words had already been spoken, there was no way to take them back. She could only accept the fact that experience still prevails.

Seeing this, Su Bu, who was sitting on a single sofa reading a newspaper, shook his head and smiled helplessly.

Su Ruoyun left the family compound at 9:30 p.m. and returned to her apartment at 10:15 p.m.

She took the elevator upstairs, entered the password on the screen, and "Panda" heard a faint sound. She was already waiting at the door. With an electronic sound, she pushed open the door, and the kitten came to greet her.

Su Ruoyun slipped on her indoor slippers, leaving her single shoes lying haphazardly on the shoe cabinet by the door. She bent down, picked up the kitten from the floor, and shuffled towards the living room in her slippers.

The "panda" nestled obediently in Su Ruojun's arm, its fluffy head remaining still, resting on Su Ruojun's forearm.

Aunt Li had already fed it cat food when she came over in the evening.

Su Ruoyun sat cross-legged on the sofa, holding the kitten. While petting the cat, she wondered if she should call Su Mingyan now and ask him about it, but she felt that Su Mingyan wouldn't tell her about this. However, she had already promised Ms. Ming...

In the end, after much deliberation, she called Su Mingyan.

If she doesn't want to tell me, then she won't; she'll hit me first as a sign of respect.

The busy tone kept ringing in the receiver. Su Ruoyun thought he was busy with company matters again that night. The phone rang persistently for three or four minutes. Just when she was about to hang up and give up, the phone was finally answered.

A soft, melodious female voice flowed clearly from the other end of the receiver.

"Hello."
