Chapter 426: Chapter 426 Two Mothers (3)_1 Chapter 426: Chapter 426 Two Mothers (3)_1 “That’s true, Little Jiaojiao is so adorable; she’s much better than the two boys,” Ruan Jianmin couldn’t help but soften his expression when he talked about his little niece. He was a stern man who was strict with his own son and could never be called a doting father, but he truly adored Ruan Jiaojiao. It seed like all his affection was reserved for her.
“Yeah, it’s just that she’s had so much bad luck. Look at this year alone, how many things have happened to her. Whenever she’s in trouble, big brother just can’t focus on work anymore.”
“What are you trying to say?” Hearing this, Ruan Jianmin could already tell there was an underlying ssage in her words, and he pushed her away from his arms, sitting up as well.
“Well, you see, your big brother can’t really find the ti to manage the restaurant now. It’s just sitting there unused, so why don’t you talk to him and suggest that we help run it for now? We’ll cover any costs incurred…”
“Wu Le, what wishful thinking are you indulging in? Huh?” Ruan Jianmin was amused, “We help run it and then what? We give the costs to big brother and pocket the profits ourselves? How can you dare to think such a thing? Huh?”
Realizing Ruan Jianmin was upset, Wu Le tried to defend herself, “That’s not what I an, I just think…”
“No matter what you think, I want you to drop the subject right now!” Ruan Jianmin pushed her away completely, “You’ve brought this up once, and I’ll chalk it up to confusion on your part, but don’t you ever bring it up again.”
Wu Le, who had already been feeling a bit guilty, couldn’t help but get angry as well upon seeing Ruan Jianmin’s attitude, and she yelled, “Do you think I want to do this? Isn’t this all for the sake of our family?”
“Look, big brother has already built a new house, and the second sister-in-law is also preparing to start building one. Only our house remains the sa. How long do you plan to live in this run-down place? Ruan Feng and Ruan Qun are growing up; do you expect them to stay here forever? What kind of decent partner would consider them in the future?”
Wu Le knew her idea ant taking advantage of the older brother’s situation, but if the restaurant wasn’t going to open and would just sit there, it would be a waste. Why couldn’t they run it for a while? It wasn’t like they were going to seize it for themselves.
“There is no room for negotiation on this matter. Don’t worry about building the house, I have my plans.”
“What plans? For years I haven’t seen any plans co to fruition.”
“Wu Le, are you looking for a fight?” Ruan Jianmin’s deanor had completely changed. He had gotten off the bed and was standing at its edge, looking at her.
Her heart twitched under his icy and stern gaze. She fell silent for a few seconds before lying back down, sowhat dejected.
Only then did Ruan Jianmin lie down beside her.
Now the couple lay back to back, in silent opposition.
Just when Ruan Jianmin thought she had given up on the idea and wouldn’t pursue it further, he heard her again, “What if we approach it like this? We could invest in a share too. That way, it won’t be like we’re taking advantage,” she said.
This ti, Ruan Jianmin genuinely laughed, though it was a scornful one.
“Wu Le, do you think I’m a fool, or do you think everyone else is? When big brother was starting up the restaurant, you didn’t talk about investing then. What did you tell ? You said big brother had more money than sense and wouldn’t mind if it all went down the drain. What’s the matter, you saw big brother making money last ti and now you want in on the investnt? Why didn’t I realize before how capable you are?”
When Ruan Jianguo initially opened the restaurant, he had inford all his brothers about it. Ruan Jianmin did consider the opportunity, but after discussing it with Wu Le, she flatly refused, fearing a loss.
