Chapter 1236
Ren read Ruka’s mind and said with a deep smile, “I’ll be back in about two days.”
Ruka nodded, and her phone rang at that moment. She picked up her phone and glanced at it. Then,
she said, “It’s my mom.”
He motioned for the woman next to him to answer the phone while urging her, “Answer it!”
She answered the phone quickly and greeted, “Hey, Mom.”
“Ruka, what time do you get off work? I’m having a get-together dinner with some old friends. You
should come and meet them as well.”
She agreed, “Okay. I’ll be home before 5.00PM.”
“Dress up nicely tonight.”
“Mom, why do I need to dress up?” Ruka questioned.
The question drew the man’s attention, and he cast a sidelong glance at her. Claire stressed in a
serious tone on the other end of the line, “Just do as I say and don’t embarrassus, alright?”
Ruka smiled as she pursed her lips, “Alright. I got it.”
Ruka raised her head and looked the man in the eyes after she hung up the phone. Ren locked his
gaze on her, and his expression was unfathomable.
She thought she had made a fool of herself as she ran her fingers through her hair and asked. “Why do
you keep staring at me? Is there something on my face?”
“What would you do if your parents set you up on a blind date?” he asked her directly
Ruka was startled for a moment before she recalled her mom’s advice about dressing up. Then, she
responded with hindsight, “No way! Are my parents going to arrange a blind date for me tonight?”
Ren asked her coldly, “Are you looking forward to it?”
She erupted in laughter. “No! Are you already jealous before I’ve met another man?!”
When he reached out to take her hand, he immediately noticed the missing diamond ring on her finger.
He asked with a frown, “Where’s the diamond ring?”
“Oh, I left it at home, I’m afraid I’ll lose it.” As soon as she replied, she felt guilty and lowered her head.
