There are certain things in life which can't be controlled by the will of a human. Just like Ru had no control over her keen senses anymore. Her reflexes or the observing habits had become a second nature of hers. It was so deep-rooted that even when Ru didn't wish to eavesdrop on Ji Yifeng and his wife, Xiao Zhi'er's conversation, she couldn't help it.
Especially because a certain thing had caught her off guard. It struck her pretty badly.
"Renren's bride?" Ru mumbled it as she walked back to her room. "Where have I heard this before?" She felt like she knew what they were talking about but since she couldn't immediately recall it, she was certain that it must be an insignificant memory in her mind. It was a new curiosity that led Ru to overthink.
