Chapter 8

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Qiao Baizhou decided to ask Ruyuan to visit Ming's house for him.

Yu Gong and Minglou are now the economic advisors of the new government, every word and deed will affect the interests of businessmen.

In private, Mingjing and the Qiao family are both red capitals, and they have had business contacts in recent years, so there are quite a few contacts between the two.

"Sister Mingjing, I will come to see you on behalf of elder brother, and wish you New Year's greetings."

When Ruyuan walked into the living room, Mingjing was watching Mingtai and Axiang playing cards.

"Ruyuan is here? Mingtai, come here, let me introduce you, this is the second lady of Qiao's family in Sino-French Pharmacy, Qiao Ruyuan."

Ming Jing has always liked this well-educated girl from the Qiao family, so she showed extraordinary enthusiasm, "Ruyuan, this is my younger brother, Ming Tai, who is studying at the University of Hong Kong."

"Hi, young master Ming." Ruyuan raised her eyebrows, her voice was brisk, and she was obviously in a good mood.

"Hi, Miss Qiao." Mingtai looked at Ruyuan, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he joked, "Sister, when did you meet such a beautiful girl, why didn't you introduce me to her earlier?"

"You child, what are you talking about?"

Mingjing patted him reproachfully, then turned to Ruyuan and said, "Ruyuan, speaking of which, you and our Mingtai are still the same age, so we should have a common topic."

Ruyuan raised her eyebrows, noncommittal for Ming Jing's behavior of being so congenial, and there was a sound of footsteps on the stairs, followed by a familiar low voice.

"Sister, this is my New Year's gift for you."

Mingcheng followed Minglou down the stairs, only seeing a familiar graceful back, and didn't take it seriously, but when the girl turned around, his heart skipped a beat, and he deliberately avoided Ruyuan's gaze.

"You drew this? It's really good." Ming Jing took the painting in surprise, "What's the name of this painting?"

Ruyuan then looked at the oil painting. The color tone was mild and not strong. Although a lot of cool colors were used, the loose and not messy layout added a bit of warmth to the composition.

She looked at the man who dodged her eyes without any trace, and felt that the painting was like a man. Although he was cold and arrogant, he was unexpectedly gentle on the inside.

Feeling the girl's sizing up, Mingcheng was so nervous that he didn't know how to answer, so he could only focus on the elder sister and the painting, and let himself ignore her eyes as much as possible.

"home."

Minglou took a strange look at Mingcheng who refused to speak, and then made a decision for him.

"That's right, Mingtai, go and frame it for me."

Mingjing handed the painting to Mingtai, only then remembered that Ruyuan was still at the side, and quickly pulled her over to introduce her, "Ruyuan, haven't you met my other two younger brothers? This is Minglou, and that's Ah Cheng."

"Sister Mingjing, we met at the ball before." Ruyuan was as obedient as ever in front of Mingjing, she lowered her head slightly, like a lady who is a bit shy when meeting a foreigner.

She looked away, Mingcheng finally felt more at ease, and finally dared to follow the elder sister's introduction to look at Ruyuan, and took her cuteness into his eyes.

"Yes, I met Ms. Qiao once before." Minglou said politely, and raised his hand to look at his watch, "Sister, I have something urgent to deal with, so we'll leave first."

"Wear more and come back soon."

Mingjing instructed, then turned to complain to Ruyuan, "Look, those who celebrate the Chinese New Year don't even have to go home, so I really don't know what they are busy with every day."

"That's right, my elder brother doesn't know where to go every day, leaving me alone at home, he's bored to death."

Ruyuan took Ming Jing's arm and followed her words.

Ming Jing looked at Ming Tai with a smile on his face, "That's not easy, our family Ming Tai is at home on vacation, if you are bored, let him play with you. He knows what is fun best."

Ruyuan thought it was funny, looked up and saw Mingtai respecting and thanking Bumin, she winked at him where Mingjing couldn't see, and got a response from the other party, forming an alliance.

*****

Unable to resist the big sister's stubbornness, Ruyuan was finally forced to go out with Mingtai to choose a picture frame.

The two of them chatted one after another, but found that many ideas coincided with each other, and they had a good chat.

The two walked all the way to a square, and Mingtai stopped still when he saw the little nurse who was distributing leaflets.

Following Mingtai's gaze, although the girl in the nurse's uniform is not stunning, she can be called delicate, exuding the air of an upright and clean virgin.

Although I keep this kind of woman at arm's length, since Mingtai likes her, Ruyuan takes a second look at her.

"Sweetheart?"

Mingtai has always lived freely and flamboyantly, but he doesn't hide his thoughts.Although it was a bit shallow to say this to the girl I met for the first time, but it was an opportunity to meet together, so I nodded and admitted.

"Then I'll leave first, so as not to delay you two reminiscing about the old days." Ruyuan saw Mingtai's impatience, and bid farewell tactfully.

"Oh, goodbye, I'll take you back, or Eldest Sister will scold me."

Although he wanted to talk to Cheng Jinyun, Mingtai was the young master after all, so he couldn't lose his courtesy no matter what.The girl came out with him, and he was naturally responsible for bringing her home safely.

"No need, there is any danger in broad daylight, I will not complain to Sister Mingjing, don't worry."

Ruyuan shook her head, smiled empathetically, and then teased, "What's more, if Sister Mingjing knew it was for your life, she would definitely not blame you."

Mingtai smiled gratefully at her, "Then I won't insist, be careful on the road."

Ruyuan nodded and watched Mingtai walk towards the little nurse.She didn't expect that Mingtai, who was flamboyant, would like such a girl.

*****

At dinner time, Mingtai was still immersed in the kiss with Cheng Jinyun just now, and unconsciously put on a sweet smile.

Ming Jing, who has been paying attention to him, will naturally not miss his very obvious expression signal, and he is very relieved, "Mingtai, what do you think of Ruyuan?"

"Very good." Mingtai thought that it was because of Ruyuan's understanding that he had the opportunity to get close to the beautiful woman, so he naturally recognized her very much.

Ming Jing obviously misunderstood what Ming Tai meant, and his smile deepened, "It's rare that our picky young master likes it, so do you think it's possible for the two of you to develop further?"

"Cough!" Ah Cheng was drinking soup, choked on hearing the words, and was baptized by the eyes of the other three.

"This kid can choke on food."

Ming Jing glared at him, but it didn't affect her original focus. She quickly returned to the previous topic and turned to Ming Tai, "Ming Tai, tell Eldest Sister, where did you all go today? What were you talking about?"

The eyes of the three people looked away, Mingcheng heaved a sigh of relief, but thinking of her well-behaved appearance in front of the eldest sister today, and the fact that she and Mingtai had gone out all afternoon, she felt faintly angry again.

An inexplicable thought came to his mind, if the elder sister knew, she kissed him...

Thinking of this, Mingcheng immediately ordered himself to take back his wandering thoughts, and somewhat spurned his despicable thoughts.

"Oh, big sister!" Mingtai put down his chopsticks, and pouted his mouth a little unhappy, "I don't mean that to Miss Qiao, so why don't you mess up the mandarin ducks?"

"Hey kid, didn't you just say it was fine?"

Ming Jing still wanted to continue, but seeing his young master's increasingly unhappy face, he finally backed down, "Okay, okay, let's not talk, let you be happy, okay?"

"It's not too bad." Mingtai finally picked up his chopsticks again in satisfaction, and scooped up another bowl of soup for himself.

Minglou, who hadn't spoken to him all this time, was thoughtful. He looked at Ah Cheng who was acting abnormal just now, raised his eyebrows, and kept his doubts in his heart.
