Chapter 430: Chapter 428: Third Sister-in-law Ruanruan 4_1

Third Brother faintly tugged at the corner of his lips, "I too didn’t know it was you."

As he said this, he looked down at the extremely casual leisure wear he had on.

If he had known beforehand that the blind date was her, he wouldn’t have dressed so casually.

"Sorry, sorry, I really didn’t know that the person I was meeting for the blind date was you, otherwise, I wouldn’t have done this. I, I feel, I need to go to the restroom to remove my makeup." Ruan Ruanruan’s voice already carried a sobbing tone, her face so red it seemed almost to drip blood, wishing she could immediately find a crack in the ground to squeeze into.

How could she not want to hide when she was so embarrassed in front of the person she liked?

Noticing her embarrassment, Third Brother’s face was gentle, "It’s okay, you look good like this too."

Ruan Ruanruan was stunned, "You, you don’t have a problem with your aesthetics, do you?"

Even Xiaxia was frightened by her makeup, and yet he said it looked good!

Mad! Absolutely mad!

Third Brother gazed at her chaotically painted face and slowly enunciated, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder..."

In the eyes of a lover, no matter what the other looks like, they are beautiful!

Hearing these words, Ruan Ruanruan’s heart skipped several beats.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

Lover!

Ruan Ruanruan’s throat involuntarily tightened, her clear eyes filled with shock, she excitedly and incredulously pressed, "What, what do you mean by that?"

Her tongue touched the roof of her mouth, anxiously waiting for his next words.

Third Brother lifted his gaze, looking at her, and said directly, "Ruanruan, during the days we’ve spent together, I’ve realized that I’ve liked you for a long time now..."

It was the first time in his life Third Brother had confessed to a girl. At this moment, his ears were tinted red and the fingers resting on the table were nervously intertwined as he bravely met her gaze.

Upon hearing the confession, Ruan Ruanruan couldn’t help but cover her lips, her eyes brimming with joy.

"Ruanruan, will you be my girlfriend?"

Third Brother asked again.

His eyes were attractive and earnest.

His tone, sincere.

Ruan Ruanruan, who already liked him, saw no reason to refuse. She quickly nodded her head, "I can, of course I can, very much so. Ah, am I agreeing too quickly? Won’t you think I’m not modest?"

She was so overjoyed that she began to speak incoherently.

Unable to hold back, Third Brother chuckled, stood up slightly and patted his hair, his face filled with affection, "How could that be? In my heart, Ruanruan is the best!"

Hearing this, Ruan Ruanruan’s face immediately flushed with embarrassment, her joy as immense as a two-hundred-pound bear.

Subsequently, Third Brother began to explain,

"Ruanruan, I need to explain about the blind date today. Originally, I wasn’t planning to come as I already had someone I liked; how could I go on a blind date? But when my dad called your house and no one answered, it wouldn’t have been nice to stand up the person, so I just came to inform the other party."

Third Brother didn’t want her to misunderstand that he was fickle-hearted.

Ruan Ruanruan also explained, "I came on behalf of my sister for the blind date. I really didn’t plan to come either, but if I didn’t show up, I estimated my dad would strangle me. So, I put on this makeup to make the other party dislike me..."

Speaking of the horrifying makeup, Ruan Ruanruan couldn’t help wanting to cover her face.

Third Brother warmly smiled, "Looking at it now, it seems we really are fated."

Both he and she had refused blind dates for each other’s sake, but in the end still came for various reasons.

Upon arrival, they discovered that the ones meant to be on the blind date were them, the two of them!

"Yeah," Ruanruan nodded and her cheeks reddened even more when she caught his gaze. Thinking that she hadn’t removed her makeup yet, she quickly stood up and stammered, "That, I, I, I’ll go take off my makeup first."

As she spoke, she covered her face with her bag, not wanting him to see how ugly she looked.

"I’ll come with you."

The third brother rose and walked with her towards the restroom.

The restroom was unisex.

"Let me help you with that," the third brother said as he took the makeup remover from her bag. He poured some onto a cotton pad and gently started to wipe her face.

He was so close to her, very close.

Ruanruan’s heart suddenly pounded like a drum, almost leaping out of her chest.

The cool cotton pad wiped across his face, and his fingertips inadvertently brushed her skin, bringing a tingling sensation.

"There we go," the third brother said with a smile.

Ruanruan’s cheeks flushed again, "Thank you."

"Why so formal with your own boyfriend?" The third brother gently patted her head and then casually took her small, warm hand.

"Ruanruan, would you come home with me for dinner tonight?" he asked as he leaned down and whispered in her ear.

With each breath, the warmth of his breath made the lobe of her ear tremble involuntarily.

Ruanruan felt weak in the knees and shyly lowered her head, "This, this isn’t quite right."

The third brother said, "There’s nothing wrong with it, Ruanruan. I can’t wait to introduce you to my family."

If a man is willing to take his girlfriend home, it means that she is very important to him.

Ruanruan nodded and whispered shyly, "I’ll listen to you."

"You’re such a good girl, Ruanruan." The third brother gently brushed her hair, as if he were petting a cat.

In the evening, when Xia Ningxing came home, she saw Ruanruan sitting on the couch in her living room, shyly smiling with her cheeks flushed red like little apples.

"Ruanruan is here!"

Xia Ningxing winked at her while changing shoes.

"Xiaxia..." The thought of becoming the boss’s sister-in-law made Ruanruan both embarrassed and shy as she bit her lip.

"Oh no, I should be calling my future sister-in-law!" Xia Ningxing slapped her own head, her eyes full of teasing.

At those words, Ruanruan almost wished she could bury her face in her stomach.

"Why so bashful!" Xia Ningxing walked over, sat next to her, and patted her shoulder.

Seeing Ruanruan like this, the third brother couldn’t help saying, "Bao’er, stop teasing Ruanruan. She’s thin-skinned."

"Alright, alright, I’ll stop!" Xia Ningxing quickly raised both hands.

"Protecting her before even entering the door!"

The brothers and sisters-in-law teased.

Mrs. Xia smiled as she looked at Ruanruan and the third brother, "Since you two have taken a liking to each other, let’s settle the engagement first. What do you think?"

The third brother looked at Ruanruan. Although he really wanted to marry her right away, he hesitated...

"Mom, even though I want to marry Ruanruan immediately, I’m afraid it might be too soon for her to accept. Besides, it’s fashionable to date these days. Let us spend some time together before we consider getting married," he said.

Mrs. Xia thought about it and realized that he was right. Indeed, young people today prefer to date, unlike in the past where they would get married immediately after finding mutual interest through matchmaking.
