- Chapter 22 - A Man Should Be Magnanimous
At this moment, Ruan Meng had changed out of her queen-like little black dress and high heels and put on matching outfits with the two children, complete with white shoes.
As Ruan Meng approached, Mo Yuting instinctively made room for her beside the twins, but she didn’t even look at him. Her gaze was fixed on Lin Yuan.
Seeing Ruan Meng for the first time, Lin Yuan was equally captivated by her.
Caught between Mo Yuting and Lin Yuan, Si Nian felt an inexplicable chill. With a strong desire to survive, he quickly stepped into the space between Ruan Meng and Lin Yuan.
“Hehe, we seem to have a connection! But we don’t know your name yet.” Si Nian eagerly handed Ruan Meng a business card while keeping both hands out, waiting for a card in return.
“I don’t have a business card.” Ruan Meng shook her head, but Si Nian wasn’t discouraged. “Can we exchange phone numbers then? You’re alone with two children. It would help to have a friend to lend a hand, right?”
“I don’t have a phone number either.”
Ruan Meng only had two cards in her bag. One was from the system and another she got from Ruan Qiu. She hadn’t had a chance to buy a phone or something yet.
“Uh, okay then.” Si Nian didn’t know the truth, so he felt embarrassed being so turned down by Ruan Meng in a ‘clear-headed and unworldly’ way. This also caused Lin Yuan to frown in displeasure. However, Mo Yuting sensed that Ruan Meng was speaking the truth.
Ruan Meng was unconcerned. She took note of the three men’s emotions before heading to the cashier to settle the bill.
Feeling like he was making a fool of himself, Si Nian prepared to leave, but the sensitive and careful Ruan An An tugged at his pants. “Uncle Si.”
“Hmm?” Although a bit embarrassed, Si Nian was gentle with the child and quickly squatted down with a good temper. “Are you called Da Bao?”
“Yes, Mommy gave me that nickname!”
Nickname?
Can you really have such a casual nickname? Is there a Xiao Bao too?
Si Nian patted the little guy who was lost in his own happy thoughts and sighed leisurely, “So, does Da Bao have something to tell Uncle?”
“Mommy really doesn’t have a phone, so don’t misunderstand, okay?” Ruan An An explained, his little eyes darting toward Mo Yuting.
Si Nian found the innocent child amusing, but he was also a bit surprised by his words. He didn’t expect anyone in this day and age not to use a phone.
Mo Yuting’s eyes flickered with interest.
No phone? How inconvenient.
After Ruan Meng settled the bill and walked over, she noticed that Mo Yuting and the others hadn’t left. She threw a glance and quickly met Mo Yuting’s eyes.
“I’m Mo Yuting.”
It was a delayed self-introduction, but Mo Yuting felt it was just the right time.
The others watched as the cold beauty reflected in Mo Yuting’s eyes suddenly smiled and slowly revealed a name that no one had expected.
“I’m Ruan Meng.”
“Gasp—” Along with Si Nian’s exaggerated intake of breath, Mo Yuting’s lips slightly parted, revealing a hint of confusion and panic in his eyes.
After pondering for a moment, Mo Yuting broke his character for the first time and confirmed with the person in front of him again, “You are Ruan Meng, the second miss of the Ruan family?”
His future fiancée?
“Yeah.” Ruan Meng nodded, then introduced the twins to Mo Yuting. “These are my dragon and phoenix twins, Ruan An An and Ruan Le Le.”
Mo Yuting, who had just been thinking about not being forced into becoming a father, gently leaned down and patted the twins’ little heads. “Good children.”
Well, a man should be magnanimous.
“Can we call you Daddy now?” This time, it wasn’t Ruan An An who asked but Ruan Lele. She finally decided to stop being angry at Mo Yuting.
Mo Yuting glanced at his calm ‘fiancée’ and nodded for some unknown reason. “Hmm.”
