Chapter 351 Our Young Lady Has a Secret

“You need to pay more attention to even minor ailments.” Jiang Ruan said earnestly, showing concern for his condition. “Eat on time every day and listen to the family doctor’s advice.”

"Alright, alright." Old Master Qin was very pleased with her concern. "I'll listen to you."

The two then chatted about some other things.

Around 1 p.m., when the old man was about to take a nap, Jiang Ruan prepared to leave.

As she came out of Grandpa Qin's room, she ran into Qin Mo. Thinking about what they had talked about earlier, she called out to him, "Qin Mo."

Qin Mo was indifferent to everyone: "What is it?"

"Do you know that Mr. Qin suffered a serious illness before?" Jiang Ruan asked directly.

Qin Mo paused, his dark eyes falling on her with a hint of inquiry.

Jiang Ruan's expression was very natural: "When we were talking just now, he mentioned that he still had some minor health issues after that incident, and asked if his family doctor had given him any rehabilitation advice."

"I gave it to him." Qin Mo's thin lips parted slightly, his dark eyes unfathomable. "Tell him to keep a good mood and avoid getting emotionally agitated or stimulated as much as possible."

Jiang Ruan nodded.

Qin Mo's gaze remained fixed on her.

"Then I'll be going now," Jiang Ruan said.

"Why are you suddenly asking this?" Qin Mo's eyes were filled with inquiry.

"Just a simple check-in, so as not to buy anything the elderly can't eat later." Jiang Ruan's answer was impeccable. "My position in the Qin family is rather sensitive. It wouldn't be good if something happened to Mr. Qin because of me."

Qin Mo's eyes showed doubt: "Is that all?"

A hint of confusion flashed in Jiang Ruan's eyes: "Is there a problem?"

Seeing that she didn't seem to be acting, Qin Mo put away his suspicions and simply said two words: "No."

Jiang Ruan hummed in agreement.

"Don't mention this kind of question in front of my dad and second uncle, and don't ask anyone else," Qin Mo instructed her, his words cold and indifferent. "Otherwise, they'll think you're trying to curry favor with Grandpa, and they'll target you."

"I know." Jiang Ruan nodded, a gentle smile in her eyes. "Thank you for reminding me."

After saying that, he sent a message to Mo Mo and Tang Bai, and walked outside.

The moment she boarded the bus, the relaxed and carefree expression on her face vanished, replaced by a solemn look.

Qin Mo's reaction and reminder were too strange. Qin Muchuan and Qin Muchi knew that she was now close to Old Mr. Qin, so Qin Mo's attempt to curry favor seemed rather pointless. He was such a taciturn person that he would never waste his breath on unnecessary matters.

Unless there's something he wants to hide inside.

"Tang Bai, go to Si Ning's place." Jiang Ruan sent him a location.

Tang Bai: "Okay!"

The moment the car drove away, Qin Luofeng and Qin Muchuan emerged from the shadows.

Qin Muchuan looked at his second son, his expression indifferent: "Is everything arranged?"

"I told Uncle Chengxuan." Qin Luofeng's expression was gentle. Judging from his actions and words, he was a refined and gentle young master. "He has already made preparations."

"I hope my niece can go back to see my dear sister alive." Qin Muchuan stood with his hands behind his back, his expression betraying his true feelings.

"My men said that the two bodyguards around Jiang Ruan are very capable." Qin Luofeng understood everything. "She will most likely be able to leave alive, but Uncle Chengxuan's methods will be enough to make her suffer."

Qin Muchuan nodded.

As if remembering something, he asked another question: "Where is your second uncle?"

"He went to look for Jiang Ye." Qin Luofeng knew a lot about things. "I guess what happened at noon really upset him, and he's thinking of making a move against Jiang Ruan."

"During this time, I told your men to stay put. It would be best if those two idiots, Li Chengxuan and Qin Muchi, could handle things. If they can't, don't drag us down with them." After hearing Qin Luofeng's plan, Qin Muchuan became much calmer than before.

Qin Luofeng: "I know."

Jiang Ruan had no idea that she was in danger.

After the car drove out of the Qin family's old house, she sent a message to Si Ning, telling her that she had something to discuss with her.

After Si Ning let her go, Jiang Ruan didn't let Tang Bai change the destination.

"Why did you suddenly go to see Si Ning?" Tang Bai asked while driving. "Did you discover something?"

"It's nothing." Jiang Ruan didn't tell everyone her guesses. Although Tang Bai and Mo Mo were on the same side, it was important to keep quiet about this matter until there was concrete evidence and specific guesses.

Tang Bai: "Tsk tsk tsk."

Mo Mo: "..."

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Tang Bai drove leisurely and casually: "Our young lady has a secret."

"You talk as if you don't have any secrets," Jiang Ruan said casually, exposing his lie. "You all come to my side with secrets too."

Tang Bai: "!"

Mo Mo: "!"

The two were stunned for a second.

They knew Jiang Ruan was investigating them, but they didn't expect her to say it so casually without any prior warning.

Didn't we always keep things from each other?

"I feel a little embarrassed by what you've said." Tang Bai drove very steadily.

"It's fine if it's awkward," Jiang Ruan replied calmly. "If you're awkward, then I don't have to be."

Tang Bai's expression turned somewhat suspicious.

Mo Mo offered a fair assessment: "The young lady has become even smarter."

"You knew we had a secret about us, so why didn't you expose it?" Tang Bai asked after seeing her expression was normal in the rearview mirror. "Shouldn't a normal person, especially someone with so much wealth like you, be extremely cautious?"

Jiang Ruan's gaze fell on him.

Tang Bai looked in the rearview mirror and their eyes met: "What's wrong..."

"Aren't you going to try to explain yourself?" Jiang Ruan had thought that it would be a little awkward for them if she said it, but she didn't expect that he would admit it without saying a word of explanation.

Tang Bai: "What's the use of sophistry when you know the truth perfectly well?"

Jiang Ruan: "Just putting on an act."

Tang Bai: "That makes sense."

Jiang Ruan: "?"

"What did you just say? I don't understand." Tang Bai began his acting routine. "I don't know if Mo Mo came with a secret, but I'm sure I didn't. You know everything about me."

Mo Mo looked doubtful: "Are you sure?"

Tang Bai said confidently, "What's there to be uncertain about?"

Mo Mo looked at him and said ruthlessly, like a human machine, "Your hair length in centimeters, the dimensions of your body, your height and weight accurate to two decimal places, even the boss doesn't know."

Tang Bai: "..."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

People can be truly speechless when they're speechless.

"Young Miss." Tang Bai's tone was as sunny and cheerful as ever.

Jiang Ruan was replying to a message on her phone: "Go ahead."

Tang Bai: "Will you fire us?"

Jiang Ruan: "If I wanted to fire you, I wouldn't have kept you around until now."

Tang Bai: "You don't mind that we come to your side with secrets and purposes."

Jiang Ruan: "Everyone has their own secrets. As long as you do your job well and don't cause harm or danger to me or my family, the secrets and motives can be ignored."

"Aren't you afraid we're bad guys?" Tang Bai was genuinely curious about this.

"I'm not afraid," Jiang Ruan said confidently.

Tang Bai: "Why?"

“In most cases, Sui Sui, Huo Zhizhou, and my mother have a good eye for people.” Jiang Ruan was telling the truth. “None of the three of them have said that you have any problems, so I don’t need to worry.”
