Hong Ling laughed sincerely, holding Jiaojiao's hand with a hint of deliberate flattery: "Jiaojiao, you're really nice."
Hong Ling wasn't foolish.
During her stay at Yuansu, she clearly realized how favored Jiaojiao was in the Ruan Family, and also knew how much Ruan Hao doted on this younger sister. Although she felt a bit jealous each time she saw Ruan Hao shower Jiaojiao with love, she understood how to restrain such feelings because she knew the most important thing for her now was to win Jiaojiao's favor.
Only by building a good relationship with Jiaojiao would she have more chances to get close to Ruan Hao and continue to develop her plans.
On the other side, after Ruan Jun sent Hong Ping back to her room, he stayed with her while she ate something, and only went out to greet guests again when Ruan Chi came to call him.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Hong was observing Ruan Hao in the hall; the longer she looked, the more satisfied she became.
