Chapter 428: The Paranoid Prince in the Extra Story (8)
After Cheng Yan and Ruan Heng became friends, he often visited Ruan's house and gradually became familiar with Ruan Jiuchao.
Once, Cheng Yan accidentally asked Ruan Heng, "Brother Heng, what do you think of me?"
"Brother Yan, what do you mean by 'how are you?'" Ruan Heng asked puzzledly.
Cheng Yan scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "What do you think...what do you think...I am your brother-in-law...?!"
Hearing this, Ruan Heng was stunned for a moment, his pupils full of shock, and he quickly retorted: "You...you want to marry my brother?!"
"Yeah, yeah." Cheng Yan nodded repeatedly and responded: "I have liked your brother for a long time. Your brother will be coming of age in a year, so I want... Brother Heng, don't worry, I know that my current status is not worthy of Jiu Chao, but I will work hard, and I will never let Jiu Chao suffer with me."
At this time, Cheng Yan had already passed the examination and became a scholar.
Ruan Heng refused without even thinking: "Brother Yan, you should just give up."
"Why?! Does Jiuchao already have someone he likes?" Cheng Yan asked.
Ruan Heng scratched his head and explained, "I don't know either. Anyway, you should know my brother's friend, right?"
"Well, what does this have to do with him?!" Cheng Yan said in confusion.
"My brother's friend is from Beijing, his name is Jiang Zui. Jiang Zui's brother knows my father. When he was young, Jiang Zui lived in my house for a period of time.
After Jiang Zui left, he would still communicate with my brother every month.
I was still young at that time. Anyway, I heard from my mother that Jiang Zui once said that after my brother reached the age of 15, he would come to marry my brother. "
Ruan Heng's words made Cheng Yan stunned for a moment.
It turns out that friend is a man!
He always thought he was the other person's brother.
After all, he had been with Ruan Heng for so long and knew a little about Ruan Jiuchao. Ruan Jiuchao's friend would give Ruan Jiuchao some jewelry, fabrics and other things every month.
That's why he always thought that the other person was his brother.
Cheng Yan pressed on: "A person from Beijing?! Then Jiang Zui...are you sure he will still be the same as when he was little?
After not seeing each other for so many years, are you sure he still likes Jiu Chao? ! "
Cheng Yan's words made Ruan Heng stunned. He hesitated for a moment and said, "To be honest, I don't know either."
"Brother Heng, I just want to ask you one question, does Jiu Chao like him?"
"I guess... you like it, right?!"
"So do you want Jiang Zui to marry your brother?"
"No." Ruan Heng quickly shook his head and said, "If Jiang Zui really liked my brother, he wouldn't have stayed away from seeing him for so long. What's the point of just sending letters and gifts?"
What's more, he hated the way his brother defended Jiang Zui the most, even though he was his brother's biological brother.
"Then do you want me to be your brother-in-law?" Cheng Yan asked.
"Well...it doesn't matter whether I want it or not. What's important is my brother." Ruan Heng said solemnly.
Although he was very unhappy with Jiang Zui, what mattered most was that his brother liked him.
Cheng Yan felt a little disappointed when he saw that he could not extract any useful information from Ruan Heng.
At this moment, Ruan Heng suddenly shouted, "Brother!"
When Cheng Yan heard Ruan Heng's voice, he subconsciously looked in the direction of Ruan Heng. Suddenly, Ruan Jiuchao's figure came into his sight.
Ruan Heng waved to Ruan Jiuchao and said, "Brother, Brother Yan has something to tell you."
After saying that, Ruan Heng gave Cheng Yan a look, turned around and ran away.
No matter what, Jiang Zui couldn't touch or see it, but Cheng Yan was standing right in front of him.
Moreover, although Cheng Yan was a merchant, he became a scholar at the age of fifteen. He was extremely talented and his future was limitless.
He and Cheng Yan have known each other for such a long time and have some understanding of each other's temperament.
If he really has to choose between Cheng Yan and Jiang Zui, he will choose Cheng Yan.
Since Cheng Yan is his good friend, he will give him a chance.
As for whether he can be caught or not, that’s none of his business.
After receiving Ruan Heng's gaze, Cheng Yan began to get nervous.
"Cheng Yan, do you have something to talk to me about?" Ruan Jiuchao asked with confusion in his big eyes.
"I...I..." Cheng Yan said shyly, "Jiu Chao, I...I like...I like you, I...I want to marry you...can...Is it ok?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Jiuzhao was instantly surprised and said: "Cheng Yan I...you...how could you like me?!"
After a pause, he continued: "I...I'm sorry, I...I can't promise you, I...don't..."
Before Ruan Jiuchao could finish, Cheng Yan responded, "Jiuchao, I know about you and Jiang Zui.
But I am not optimistic.
It's been so many years, if he really likes you, how could he not show up once? !
Keep you waiting in vain!"
Hearing Cheng Yan's words, Ruan Jiuzhao's eyes flashed with surprise, and he was stunned for a moment and said: "You... me and him...
Cheng Yan, I...I always treated you as my brother, I'm sorry.
This has nothing to do with Jiang Zui.
I...I don't like you.
I'm sorry." After saying that, Ruan Jiuchao turned and left.
He...he didn't expect that Cheng Yan actually liked him.
Seeing this, Cheng Yan subconsciously grabbed Ruan Jiuchao's hand and said, "Jiuchao, think carefully, Jian Jiangzui is not worthy of your love at all."
After saying this, Ruan Jiuchao broke free from Cheng Yan's hand, ran away quickly without answering.
Cheng Yan looked at Ruan Jiuchao's back, and his heart felt inexplicably empty.
He always felt that Ruan Jiuchao should be his.
