My Groom Ran Away Chapter 24.2

The man’s gaze also rested on her body. There was an imperceptible amount of surprise that flashed through his eyes.

He, of course, knew that Ruan Zhiyin was pretty.

Even though Lanqiao High was Lanqiao’s best high school, they did not have many rules. They did not have a strict dress code. Many of the female students would put on some light makeup.

Except for Ruan Zhiyin, she would always wear a ponytail and did not put on any makeup.

But even so, there were many boys who had their eyes on her. Hearing what the other girls said, she started to wear a pair of black-rimmed glasses.

At that time Ruan Zhiyin only cared about studying and the endless number of mock exams.

Cheng Yuelin would always steal her glasses when she wasn’t paying attention. This always annoyed her.

Cheng Yuelin did not like her wearing glasses. It felt like she was retreating into her shell. She should not be covered up by a pair of glasses.

After dressing up, Ruan Zhiyin was naturally beautiful. She wore a slim dark blue dress that complimented her snow-white skin. Her soft and straight hair was rolled into a bun behind her head. It revealed a long slender neck with a pair of mesmerizing collarbones.

Cheng Yuelin was not able to move his gaze away right away. He froze for a moment before he nodded. “Not bad."

Ruan Zhiyin took a while to realize what Cheng Yuelin was talking about. Cheng Yuelin was praising the way she had dressed up today.

She did not expect that he would also know to compliment people. But she still gratefully accepted the compliment.

So, she smiled at him, and said, “Thank you, let’s go.”

The Yan family is one of the wealthiest families in Lanqiao. They were on par with the Qin family.

The current head of the Yan family is Yan Xiude, the eldest son of Madam Yan. Although tonight was a ‘birthday banquet’, those attending the banquet would mainly be there to discuss business.

After getting out of the car, Ruan Zhiyin took Cheng Yuelin’s arm. When the two people’s intimate silhouettes appeared at the banquet, the chatter in the hall immediately quieten by quite a few decibels.

The many pairs of eyes lingered on the two of them and quietly evaluated them.

Ruan Zhiyin was not surprised by this situation.

The engagement between her and Qin Jue had ended terribly, and she had turned around to marry Cheng Yuelin. This sort of drama completely overwhelmed the previous rumors between Qin Jue and Lin Jingfei. There were many people who had made fun of the Qin family being tossed away. Young Master Qin had indeed lost quite a bit of reputation.

Now that the two people had appeared, everyone wanted to know how the relationship between the two of them was.

Yan Mingfeng put down the wineglass in his hand and welcomed them. “President Cheng is here.”

The Yan family was doing well, but unfortunately, none of the younger generation appeared to have any talent.

Although Yan Mingfeng is the son of Yan Xiude, he was useless and did not have any talent in business matters. He would always have scandals with different female celebrities and the relationships would not last for even a month.

Despite this, he was still very polite to Cheng Yuelin.

In fact, it would be better to say, if they did business, no one would dare to truly be rude to Cheng Yuelin. After all, those who had offended him previously in the last few years had ended up in trouble.

When Ruan Zhiyin returned from abroad, she had heard a lot of people discussing Cheng Yuelin’s methods. He had a clear vision for the future, but his actions would remain sharp and decisive. The only reason why Lin Heng had been able to grow this quickly was due to Cheng Yuelin’s sink or swim attitude.

It was not difficult to understand why. When the Luowan project failed, all the contractors brought their contracts with them to chase Cheng Yuelin down to settle their debts. The situation he had to deal with at that time must have been extremely difficult to imagine.

He had no option but to climb up step by step without any way to retreat.

The Yan family and Lin Heng had had many partnerships together. Yan Mingfeng was Yan Xiude’s only son, but he had two cousin’s who were greedily eyeing his inheritance, so Yan Mingfeng had always wanted to strike up a business relationship with Cheng Yuelin.

To make Old Madam Yan happy, the Yan family had invited a lot of people. Gradually, there were more and more people who wanted to talk to Cheng Yuelin about business.

It was inconvenient for Ruan Zhiyin to keep on standing next to Cheng Yuelin. She glanced at the relaxed man next to her and said, “Ah Lin, I’m going to find Linlang.”

The nickname ‘Ah Lin’ was Ruan Zhiyin’s final compromise.

She could not call him ‘Husband’ naturally.

The two had discussed this at the dinner table and Cheng Yuelin had insisted that ‘husband’ would be more affectionate. But in the end, he reluctantly agreed to that nickname.

Hearing her words, Cheng Yuelin glanced at her and nodded. Then clearly said, “Don’t leave without me. When the party ends, come find me.”

It was only after saying this that he released the arm he had around her waist.

When the surrounding people saw this scene, they could not help but come to their own conclusions.

Even though their wedding was absurd, it was an undeniable fact that Ruan Zhiyin was now Cheng Yuelin’s wife.

They had originally thought that the relationship between the two of them would be cold and indifferent, but from this, they appeared to be quite intimate. Even if the intimacy was fake, it would still mean that Cheng Yuelin was deliberately supporting his wife. They could not afford to offend her.

Yan Mingfeng looked at this scene and silently captured everything. After Ruan Zhiyin left, he gave a playful look to Cheng Yuelin and said, “Unexpectedly, President Cheng would also treat women kindly.”

Cheng Yuelin frowned slightly. He half-closed his eyes and replied, “Of course, she is my wife.”

Yan Mingfeng quickly read the warning in his eyes and quickly changed his tone. “Yes, yes, yes. Of course. President Cheng must be enjoying your newlywed life. You are very considerate of your wife.”
