After dinner, it was already after nine o'clock. Ruoning took out her wallet to pay, but Gu Chendong beat her to it.

"I agreed to invite you." Ruoning joked, "You didn't even give me a chance to bribe the boss?"

"If you want to invite me, I'll do it next time. I definitely want a big meal." Gu Chendong picked up his coat and stood up, and the two of them walked out of the restaurant side by side while laughing.

Ruoning's foot hurt, and Gu Chendong seemed to notice that she had some problems with walking, so he deliberately slowed down, crossed the road, and walked to the parking place.

Suddenly, a person hurriedly walked towards the two of them. After standing in front of them, Ruoning was slightly stunned. She was really haunted. How could she meet Liu Hongzhi wherever she went?

Gu Chendong looked at Liu Hongzhi standing in front of them in confusion. Although he took her case, he had never been in contact with Liu Hongzhi, so he didn't know that Ruoning's client was her.

Liu Hongzhi, on the other hand, had a sarcastic smile on her face. She had met Ruoning's husband at Shen Rulan's birthday party that day, and it was obviously not the man in front of her. A married woman walking side by side with a strange man so late. On the street, it was enough for her to think about Pian Pian.

"I told you that I have nothing to talk about with you." Ruoning thought that she was stalking and pestering her on purpose. Before Liu Hongzhi could speak, she said in annoyance.

Liu Hongzhi squinted her eyes, looked at Gu Chendong, clicked her tongue twice, and said to Qu Ruoning: "You spoke so harshly to me and your father, I really thought your moral standards were so high, but it turns out they are nothing more than this."

Ruoning knew after hearing this that she had misunderstood and had involved unrelated people. Her anger welled up and she tried her best to suppress it. She said in a deep voice: "You are shameless, so do you think others are as dirty as you?"

"You! Dead girl!" Liu Hongzhi was angry and raised her hand to wave it away.

Gu Chendong caught her wrist and frowned: "Miss, if you continue like this, we can sue you for assault."

Liu Hongzhi pulled back her wrist fiercely and wanted to continue acting mischievously. She heard a soft voice coming from behind, calling her aunt, and she turned around to look.

Ruoning followed her gaze and saw that the person was wearing a peach-pink slim-fitting dress, with long hair hanging over her shoulders, and the ends of her hair were curled into charming arcs.

The woman got closer and closer, Ruoning squinted her eyes slightly, and after seeing clearly, she realized that it was Tang Ling.

Sure enough, it's not that the whole family doesn't come into the house, the aunt and niece want to disturb her family.

Tang Ling saw that Qu Ruoning seemed very calm, and seemed to be prepared for her aunt's entanglement with her.

"Mr. Gu, long time no see." Tang Ling glanced at Gu Chendong, who was standing next to Qu Ruoning, and said hello with a smile.

Gu Chendong saw Tang Ling, thought for a while, and remembered that she had entrusted him with the last case. He nodded politely: "Miss Tang, I'm sorry about the last case."

When Ruoning saw Gu Chendong greeting Tang Ling, she suddenly came over. No wonder Liu Hongzhi, who seemed to be such an impulsive and brainless person, would think of using words to anger her, and even take evidence to sue her company. It seemed that Tang Ling was the one making the plans. .

"Mrs. Ren, we meet again." Tang Ling stretched out her hand.

Qu Ruoning frowned and didn't hold her hand, but she didn't mind. She smiled lightly and said: "My aunt and your father are about to get married. We will be relatives from now on. I hope we can get along happily. The things that happened before will be settled." erase."

"Ha, Miss Tang is really good at joking. The crime of bigamy is very serious." Ruoning sneered. Facing these two women, no matter how good-tempered she was, she would be angered. She was really shameless to the extreme.

"Are you still going to sue your father? That's really a righteous act of annihilation." Ever since Tang Ling was dismissed from her job, she felt resentful towards Ruoning. She lost her mother when she was young, and she and Liu Hongzhi were actually relatives they hadn't seen once in eight hundred years. The last time they met

When they found out that the old man Liu Hongzhi was dating was actually Qu Ruoning's father, they became closer to Liu Hongzhi.

"Today I finally understand what a nest of snakes and rats means." Ruoning laughed out of breath, turned to Gu Chendong and said, "Mr. Gu, let's go, so as not to dirty our ears and eyes."

Gu Chendong was not stupid. He seemed to understand something after listening to their conversation. He nodded along with Ruoning's words.

Ruoning took the first step and passed by Tang Ling. Liu Hongzhi wanted to trouble Ruoning again, but Tang Ling patted her shoulder lightly to signal her to calm down.

Gu Chendong quickly followed Ruoning. After walking a little further, Ruoning's ankle began to hurt again, so Gu Chendong gave her a gentle hand.

Tang Ling put away the mobile phone that she had just held high, stopped the video recording function, put the mobile phone back into her bag, smoothed her long hair, held Liu Hongzhi's hand, and said with a smile: "Auntie, let's go back too."

Ruoning got into the car and Gu Chendong drove her home.

Sitting in the car, Ruoning was a little embarrassed. Every time she was embarrassed, she was bumped into by Gu Chendong. She lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, they just..."

"You don't need to apologize or explain to me. Every family has its own difficulties in reciting scriptures. I understand." Gu Chendong interrupted considerately.

"Sorry, I shouldn't bring my personal emotions to work." Ruoning pursed her lips.

Gu Chendong held the steering wheel, glanced sideways at her, and immediately turned back, speaking in a relaxed tone: "The company does not lack cases like theirs. If we lose one case and retain one talent, I think we will definitely make a profit."

Ruoning was amused by him, and her anger dissipated a little bit.

The car stopped and Ruoning thanked her and got out of the car.

Gu Chendong rolled up the car window, called Ruoning, and told him: "Remember to go home and apply hot compress on your ankle."

Ruoning nodded and waved to him, but she didn't expect that Gu Chendong would even notice such details as her injured ankle.

Gu Chendong rolled up the car window and drove away.

Ruoning unlocked the door and entered the house. She saw that the lights in the house were brightly on, and Ren Shaochen was sitting on the sofa, with an unhappy look on his face.

"Why are you here?" Ruoning put the key at the entrance, put on her slippers and entered the house, and asked casually.

"I just got off work and stopped by to take a look." Ren Shaochen frowned and said, "I called you."

Ruoning took out her cell phone and looked at it. Sure enough, there were several missed calls. She didn't know when it was put into silent mode, so she never heard it.

"Sorry, I just finished work and didn't see it." Ruoning walked to the bedroom, took her pajamas, and prepared to go into the bathroom to take a shower.

Ren Shaochen looked at Ruoning's profile with deep eyes and said in a low voice, "Are all bosses now responsible for sending female employees off to get off work?"

Ruoning was about to open the bathroom door, but when she heard this, she turned to look at Ren Shaochen and asked strangely: "What are you talking about?"

"You know what I'm talking about." Ren Shaochen stood up and walked toward the entrance with long legs.

"Ren Shaochen, why are you so weird? Haven't you given away to other women before?" Ruoning couldn't figure out Ren Shaochen's current mood. His tone sounded too jealous, but would Ren Shaochen be jealous of her?

The answer is obvious, no.

"Are you going to settle old scores with me now?" Ren Shaochen's face darkened.
