Seeing Fu Yunruo and Wenwen, Lin Ji greeted them with a smile, “Long time no see.”
After Wenwen got injured and hospitalized, Fu Yunruo didn’t return to the villa, and only close acquaintances had visited in hospital. Lin Ji had previously requested to visit but was denied, so he had been waiting for their return.
“Long time no see,” Fu Yunruo replied, genuinely happy to see Lin Ji. She didn’t know the man had tried to visit them at the hospital. After exchanging pleasantries and catching up briefly, the conversation dwindled to an awkward standstill.
Si Yue reached out to hold her hand.
Lin Ji immediately noticed and was startled, “You two…”
Fu Yunruo looked down at their joined hands, then openly said, “We’re together now.”
Si Yue’s lips curled into a pleased smile.
“Oh… I-I see. Well, that’s good. Congratulations,” Lin Ji stuttered. Concealing his disappointment, he quickly offered them a sincere well-wish.
“Thank you.”
“Please keep this between us for now,” Fu Yunruo requested, not wanting to end up in another trending topic again.
Lin Ji nodded, promising to keep it to himself.
After Lin Ji departed, the family of three returned inside. Seeing Si Yue still holding her hand, Fu Yunruo remarked, “Okay, he’s gone now. You can let go, right?”
Si Yue responded frankly, “Holding my girlfriend’s hand is a boyfriend’s natural right.”
Fu Yunruo gave him a glance that said: you think I will be fooled? She and Lin Ji were just ordinary friends; even if he had some liking toward her, it was just a fan’s admiration for their idol. Was there any need to be jealous?
Wenwen’s eyes gleamed with gloating, taking delight in the situation, “Mom has so many fans, they all want to be my stepdad.”
“They can only wish,” Si Yue confidently stated. Even among fans, no one could compare to him: Ruoruo’s number one fan. His username was still proudly displayed at the top of the donation leaderboard.
Si Yue glanced at Fu Yunruo, deciding to keep his online identity a secret from her.
Noticing Fu Yunruo’s dampened spirits because of the encounter with Fang Xueruo, Si Yue suggested, “How about we stay at the flower garden for a few days?”
As usual, Uncle Guo preferred living in the flower garden. He had returned to the villa the day they came back, and quickly went back again after staying just one night.
Fu Yunruo also felt guilty for not spending much time with Uncle Guo recently and knew he must miss Wenwen, so she nodded in agreement, “That sounds good.”
However, it was not easy to visit the garden. Both Wenwen and her had their popularity soaring in a short period of time. According to the manager Sister Wang, fans and reporters alike frequently visited the garden, and Fu Yunruo worried about being recognized and causing a commotion.
Si Yue saw her concern and assured her that everything would be under control. Trusting Si Yue, Fu Yunruo finally agreed.
The family of three quickly packed and headed to the flower garden. There were now plenty of accommodations following the recent expansion, including rooms reserved for Fu Yunruo and her family.
