Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 418: Chapter 418 Why Should I Let Her Go_1

The little Lele in Aunt Li’s arms suddenly made pitiful whimpering noises, her tiny body shivering non-stop.

Aunt Li smiled in realization, “I was wondering why this little fellow has been running around in the back garden lately. Turns out, she didn’t dare come to the front, afraid of seeing Pili.”

Jian Yufei glanced at Pili, who looked as fierce as a lioness. She had no doubt, if it desired, it would definitely break free from its chains and bite someone to death.

“Is it possible to get rid of it? I don’t like its barking every day,” she said as she glanced at Ruan Tianling.

“Pili doesn’t usually bark. You don’t need to be afraid of it. Its primary task is to guard the door, preventing thieves from sneaking in,” Ruan Tianling responded with a grin.

Of course, Jian Yufei would naturally not believe his words.

With such a good security system here, would they really need a dog for monitoring?

He was keeping Pili around for no other reason than to keep an eye on her.

Ruan Tianling’s hand rested on her shoulder, “Let’s go, time is almost up.”

Jian Yufei didn’t say anything, and followed him to the car.

About ten minutes later, the car slowly pulled into the driveway of the Ruan family’s old house.

The servant ran up to open the door for them and smiled, “Young Master, Miss Jian, the elderly master was looking forward to your return early this morning.”

Ruan Tianling had a small smile, as he reached out to hold Jian Yufei’s hand.

As they were walking towards the entrance of the living room, they encountered a middle-aged woman dressed as a noblewoman coming out from inside.

She seemed excited to see Ruan Tianling, “Tianling, would you like to have tea with your aunt this afternoon?”

Ruan Tianling’s response, however, was cold and indifferent, “Sorry, I’m not available this afternoon.”

Despite his discourteous reply, the noblewoman was not offended and kept her elegant smile.

Her gaze landed on Jian Yufei and her smile deepened, “This is Miss Jian, right? Such a gentle and kind-hearted young lady.”

Jian Yufei didn’t recognize her, and her smile felt somewhat uncomfortable.

While she was smiling, her eyes remained quite cold.

“Mrs. Xu, may I know if you have anything else?” Ruan Tianling cheekily asked, his cold eyes clearly indicating that he did not welcome her stay around.

Jian Yufei then realized, she was Xu Man’s mother, which immediately made her face turn cold.

Xu Man had nearly killed her, hence she wouldn’t be good-natured towards Xu Man’s family.

“No more, you all carry on.” Mrs. Xu forced a smile, adjusted her hair, and hastily left.

Jian Yufei and Ruan Tianling walked into the living room. On seeing them, Ruan Anguo wore a kindly smiled and said, “You’ve come back right at dinner time.”

“Yufei, come to grandpa. Let me have a good look at you. I want to see if you’ve lost weight.” The old master beckoned Jian Yufei cheerfully. She walked over to him, sat down, and greeted him cordially.

Ruan Anguo affectionately patted her hand that he was holding. He then let go of her and said, “We all know what Xu Man did to you. The woman just now is Xu Man’s mother, she came to plead for Xu Man. Yufei, should we punish Xu Man?”

What was grandpa trying to do, hoping that she would spare Xu Man and not pursue her criminal responsibility?

Jian Yufei faintly smiled and said, “Grandpa, Xu Man tried to murder me with concrete evidence. She didn’t hesitate to make a move on me, so why should I forgive her? Let the court handle the matter impartially, which is fair to everyone.”

At this, Ruan Anguo burst into hearty laughter.
