Chapter 74: Insignificant

Chapter 74: Insignificant (Update )
Sister Yang looked at her leaving back and spat lightly on the ground.

Turning around, she said to Ruogu, "Madam, don't believe her lies. She has already started looking for a new daughter-in-law, so why did she let Ranran come back?"

Since Ranran left, Ruogu no longer paid attention to the affairs of the Pan family, so he didn't know about this.

She put the pen into the pen holder and whispered, "The old couple of the Pan family don't have a stable source of income. We can all see the business of Pan Dongsheng's stationery store. Where will they get the money for the bride price when they marry a new wife?"

Sister Yang curled her lips slightly and said disdainfully, "It's what they deserve! This family is hopeless. Ran Ran is so good, educated and good-looking, and gave birth to a son right after marriage. She is more than enough for Pan Dongsheng, but he doesn't know how to cherish her."

Ruogu smiled and said nothing much. The Pan family’s “good days” had just begun.

Seeing that the sun was shining brightly outside, Ruogu wanted to move the herbs in the medicine cabinet outside to dry in the sun. He Hui and Chi Zhengzheng came to help, and the three of them were busy.

The autumn sun is not too scorching, and the medicinal herbs are spread out in abundance, like a golden ocean that makes people intoxicated.

Ruogu gently turned over the herbs and smelled the pleasant fragrance of the herbs. She was lowering her head when suddenly a shadow was cast in front of her. She subconsciously raised her eyes and met a pair of haggard faces.

Rao Yuan was dazed for a moment when she saw Ruogu's face. She was in the fashion circle and had seen countless beauties, but few of them could make her feel bright. Ruogu's face made everything around her pale in comparison.

Rao Yuan pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly and said in a hoarse voice: "Sister-in-law, I am Ji Tianyang's girlfriend, and it was Brother Yuan who called me..."

Ruogu put down the herbs in his hand, stood up and said with a smile: "It turns out to be you~ You are so beautiful. Brother Yuan and Ji Tianyang went fishing. They will be back soon. Come with me into the house first."

Ruogu's smile was like a spring breeze, and the sincerity and kindness revealed in her words made people feel good about her. Rao Yuan unconsciously relaxed and followed her.

Considering her mood, Ruogu took her directly to the living room upstairs and said, "There are a lot of people coming and going in the clinic downstairs. I'm afraid I'll disturb you. If you don't mind, you can sit upstairs."

Rao Yuan hummed and walked into the living room, where she sat awkwardly on the sofa. Ruogu poured her a glass of water. Rao Yuan was probably thirsty, so she lowered her head and drank it. After her throat was moistened, she smiled embarrassedly at Ruogu.

Ruogu said in a relaxed tone: "Are all girls who are models as tall and charming as you?"

Rao Yuan was slightly stunned. She said uncomfortably: "Models have certain requirements for height ratio, so most of them are tall and have long legs. Of course, there are also a small number of plus-size models, and their proportions are also excellent."

Ruogu nodded gently, and she smiled and said, "I thought a girl like you should be as noble and cool in real life as she is on the catwalk. I didn't expect you to be so cute."

Rao Yuan had never heard anyone praise her as cute. In Ji Tianyang's eyes, she was a workaholic who loved to worry about everything, had a strong desire for control, and was emotionally unstable. No matter which label she was given, she had nothing to do with cute.

Rao Yuan put down the cup in her hand and smiled bitterly: "Sister-in-law, you think so, that's because you don't know me. If Tian Yang introduces me to you, he will definitely say that I am a control freak. In fact, I have a very bad personality."

She raised her hand to tuck the scattered hair behind her ear, her eyes were extremely dim, and Ruogu said calmly: "Personality is just a person's protective color. You will respond to what the people you get along with give you. It's not necessarily your problem."

Ruogu's words made Rao Yuan's nose a little sour, and she said in a dull voice:

"Sister-in-law, thank you for your understanding. I won't make trouble this time. Ji Tianyang wants to leave, so I will give him freedom. He won't have to worry in the future, and I won't have to work so hard." Her eyes were full of relief, as if she had really figured it out. Ruogu's face did not change, and she only said in a calm voice: "What are your plans after breaking up with him?"

Rao Yuan looked up, trying her best to suppress the tears that were about to overflow. She said in a low voice, "I have passed the application of foreign universities and plan to study abroad. I can't do modeling for a lifetime. I have made some money over the years, so I can go out to study and prepare for starting a business in the future."

Rao Yuan tried her best in love and never neglected her career, so even if she lost Ji Tianyang, she had the confidence to start over.

Ruogu looked at her with eyes full of admiration. She sighed softly and said, "Losing you is Ji Tianyang's loss."

Rao Yuan shook her head indifferently, her eyes were empty and she took a while to recover.

When Ji Tianyang and Yu Yuan came back, the expressions on their faces were completely different from when they left. Yu Yuan was smiling, with a bucket filled with seven or eight fish in his hand. Ji Tianyang had a sour face as if someone owed him money, and there was nothing in the bucket.

As soon as he entered the house, Yu Yuan raised his voice and shouted, "Sister Yang, quickly bring the fish I caught into the kitchen so that we can have an extra meal tonight."

Sister Yang heard the shouting and ran out of the kitchen while wiping her hands. She took the bucket with a smile and said in a loud voice, "Wow, these fish are not small. They can be eaten for several meals. How many fish did Mr. Ji catch?"

Yu Yuan took a tissue to wipe his face, and before Ji Tianyang could speak, he teased him, "He didn't catch any fish. He's just a phony who can only talk big. He's a typical green hand who loves to play..."

Ji Tianyang said unhappily, "Why are you talking like that? It's obvious that the fish here are bullying the newcomers. I just didn't perform well this time. Wait until I get familiar with this place, and then I'll catch a bucket for you to see."

Yu Yuan waved his hands and said nonchalantly: "Don't brag, I only believe what I see. Tell me when you catch it."

He Hui watched and laughed at the side, and Sister Yang said at the right time: "Sir, Huaixi is back from school, everyone is here, shall we have dinner?"

Yu Yuan nodded and led the way to the backyard. Ji Tianyang followed behind him. As soon as he stepped into the backyard, he turned around and saw Rao Yuan's face changed and she turned around to run.

Yu Yuan grabbed him by the collar and said angrily, "Why are you running away? Rao Yuan is not a cannibal. Can't you talk to her calmly?"

Ji Tianyang said unhappily: "Don't stop me, I have nothing to say to her, just let me go."

Before he finished speaking, Rao Yuan said coldly: "Don't run away, I'm here to break up with you. After this meal, we will end our seven-year relationship."

Her words successfully made Ji Tianyang stop in his tracks. He looked at Rao Yuan in disbelief. Rao Yuan's eyes were full of calmness and serenity, as if everything was relieved.

After she finished speaking, she looked at Yu Yuan and said softly, "Brother Yuan, I'm so sorry for causing trouble for you and sister-in-law."

Yu Yuan said in a steady voice: "We are all friends, no need to be so polite, sit down and eat first."

Ruogu asked Rao Yuan to sit next to her, while Huai Xi and Chi Zhengzheng continued chatting with Rao Yuan as if nothing had happened.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was a little weird. The feelings they once had had had now turned into smoke, drifting away with the wind. Everything seemed so insignificant.
