Chapter 42: She Recognized Him

Su Ruan woke up and notice the strange surroundings. Although she did not know much about the interior, Su Ruan could still tell that the place was expensive.

Su Ruan did not dare to make a sudden move and chose to stay still and think.

Since she was in an unfamiliar place, she needed to be cautious. The thing she was worried about the most was that she would run into some bad person who wanted to take advantage of her.

This was an unfamiliar surrounding.

What if she was kidnapped?

Su Ruan tried to recall what had happened to her earlier and remembered how she had fallen into the lake. Then, she saw something.

As the image played in her mind, Su Ruan breathed in quickly and realized that her throat was aching. She sat up and started to cough heavily.

The light in front of her was blocked. Su Ruan raised her head and saw the tall man, walking towards her.

As their gazes met, Su Ruan could not help but thought that the man was somewhat familiar. However, she was very sure that she would not know anyone with this man's temperament.

"You're awake." The man finally spoke.

She was not familiar with this place and had no idea who this man is. Su Ruan's instinct told her that she needed to be cautious.

Su Ruan brought her hands to her chest and spoke, "Who are you? Where is this place?" Her brow furrowed at the pain around her throat area. Then, she noticed that she was wearing different clothes. Her eyes widened and she was staring at Long Fei suspiciously. "You…"

"Don't worry. An elderly lady helped you to change your clothes," Long Fei said before she could ask. He pointed at the side table and continued, "Your belongings are at the side. I'm afraid that your phone could no longer be used."

Realizing that she was keeping her guard against him, Long Fei deliberately kept a distance between them.

"My name is Long Fei. This… is my place," Long Fei said. "I saw you fall into the lake earlier. Fortunately, I rescued you in time."

The image she saw under the water popped up in her mind again. The scales, the long body as well as the strange head.

Su Ruan opened her mouth, wanting to ask this man about the creature she had seen under the water when someone had knocked on the door.

Long Fei gave the person permission to enter and soon, the old auntie walked in with a tray in her hand. The scent of ginger filled the room.

"Young Master," the auntie bowed slightly.

Long Fei took a step back and motioned the auntie to approach Su Ruan.

The moment she saw the auntie, Su Ruan began to relax.

This, should be the auntie who had helped her to change her clothes, right? The old lady had a kind look on her face. Looking at her made Su Ruan feel more at ease.

A puzzled look appeared on her face again as she recalled the way the auntie had called this man.

The auntie walked over to Su Ruan's side and placed the tray on the table. She picked up a bowl of ginger water and handed it to her.

"Young miss, you fell into the lake just now. you should drink this to help warm your body," the auntie' said. "I have also made some porridge if you are hungry."

"Thank you. This is enough. I am not hungry." Su Ruan drank the ginger water and felt her body grow warmer. She lowered her eyes and drank softly as she tried to buy time. Her mind whirled, thinking about what she should do in this situation.

When she looked up again, the auntie had already left the room, leaving her both and Long Fei in the room. Instinctively, her grip on the glass tightened.

She didn't feel comfortable being in the same room with this strange man. Moreover… she kept having this feeling as if this man was watching her every move.

Su Ruan did not know why but her instinct told her that she needed to be cautious around this man. There was something in his eyes that she did not know how to explain.

"Then, Miss…"

"Su Ruan. My name is Su Ruan."

"Miss Su Ruan." There was a hint of a smile on Long Fei's lips as he spoke her name. "How did you fall into the water?"

Her expression changed slightly. Su Ruan thought about the voice that she had heard before she fell into the water and shivered.

She could have sworn that she had heard someone call out her name before she tripped and fell into the water. However, there was no one around the place.

Could it be that she was imagining things?

"I misstep and fell into the water." She tried to move her legs and winced at the pain around her ankle. She lifted the blanket slightly and saw that the painful ankle was already wrapped in a bandage.

"I saw you fell around the Ma family's Orchard," Long Fei spoke. "I have never seen you around this town before. Are you… a member of their family?"

Long Fei already knew about Su Ruan's identity. However, he could only pretend that he did not know anything about her.

Since he had already decided to keep her close to him, he could only pretend so that he would not scare her. If she runs away to another place, then, it will only be troublesome for him to chase her again.

Su Ruan nodded. "Ma Hao Dong is my grandfather."

"So, you are Old Man Ma's granddaughter."

"You know my grandfather?"

Long Fei flashed her a smile. "How can I not? We are neighbors after all."

It was then that Su Ruan remember that her cousin, Ma Yu Xi had mentioned Long Family earlier that day.

From her window, she could see Long's residence on top of the hill. When she had seen the mansion earlier that day, Su Ruan had was already admiring the magnificent building.

She did not expect that a few hours later, she would arrive at their place.

Su Ruan could guess that the Long was very rich.

A sudden thought came to her mind. Su Ruan looked at the man again and this time, her eyes widened when she recognized him.

Long Fei…

This man in front of her… wasn't he the person she was supposed to interview before she quit her job?

Her breath was stuck in her throat.

No wonder she found that this man seemed a little familiar!

The person who was in front of her was President Long Fei of Blue Media Group.
