Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 19: Big Brother Ruan Has Hidden You Really Well_l

However, he found her very beautiful today, and he couldn’t explain why his feelings differed, perhaps it was due to different moods.

After all, when he married her back then, he did it with the utmost reluctance.

Extending his hand, Ruan Tianling gave her an elegant smile.

Jian Yufei grasped his hand, also revealing a faint smile: “Let’s go, I’m ready.”

Today, Ruan Tianling did not drive himself, but had his assistant Wei Ping do so.

The car stopped at the hotel entrance, he held her hand and they walked along the red carpet, led by the waitstaff into the grand banquet hall.

The arrival of Ruan Tianling instantly drew everyone’s attention.

In A City, he was a young and promising CEO, and the Ruan Family had deep roots and vast wealth. Naturally, the worth of Ruan Tianling was very high.

Many people did not know Jian Yufei, and Ruan Tianling introduced her to every person he shook hands with.

She maintained an elegant smile beside him, with absolutely no signs of stage fright.

Her composure and grace surprised Ruan Tianling.

After all, she had not encountered such a scene before, nor was she trained in this aspect, so her tranquility truly stunned everyone.

Little did Ruan Tianling know that Jian Yufei had experienced two lifetime’s worth of emotions and tragedies. Her mentality was no longer that of a naive woman in her twenties.

She had even experienced death, so why should she fear such a scene?

“Brother Ruan, I thought you would not come to my birthday feast. I am so glad to see you here.”

Luo Rouyun gracefully walked towards them, her face bearing an innocent and adorable smile that made her even more stunning.

Ruan Tianling slightly raised his eyebrows, a smile at the corner of his mouth: “How could I miss Sister Rouyun’s birthday? Today you turn twenty – a major day. Who would dare not to come?”

Luo Rouyun giggled, elegantly swiveled her body, and with her gloved hands smoothly slipped them onto his other arm.

“Brother Ruan, it’s my birthday today. Would you let me invite you to be my partner for the first dance?” She blinked her beautiful eyes, asking him innocently.

However, Ruan Tianling glanced at Jian Yufei beside him, purposely showing a troubled expression: “If my wife doesn’t object, I will be your partner for the first dance.

It was then that Luo Rouyun looked at Jian Yufei, as if noticing her for the first time, and appeared mildly surprised.

“So, this is Brother Ruan’s wife. It’s nice to meet you. I’m Luo Rouyun, known to Brother Ruan since childhood. Brother Ruan has hidden you quite well, he never mentioned you in front of me.”

Jian Yufei’s smile on her face remains unaltered.

She perfectly understood what Luo Rouyun implied.

Luo Rouyun and Ruan Tianling knew each other since childhood and naturally, they shared a deep bond. However, the fact that he didn’t mention his wife in front of her was indicative of how much she was neglected.

In her previous life, Luo Rouyun made similar remarks and she, unable to hide her emotions, instantly showed signs of hurt.

She remembered looking towards Ruan Tianling with a hurtful gaze, hoping he would say something in her defense. However, his indifferent look was met with the words that she was being petty. If she didn’t get used to such functions, she should leave earlier, so as not to embarrass him.

In that life, her presence at Luo Rouyun’s birthday party was due to her insistence.

Ruan Tianling initially did not plan to bring her along. She insisted and came along, which irked him, hoping she would leave sooner.

But in this lifetime, she didn’t request to come, instead, he invited her to come..
