Chapter 379 - A Practical Reward
Being understood by the person you love was a fortunate thing, but being understood by your enemy would be unfortunate.
Ling Tianya felt very fortunate that the person who knew her better than herself was the person she deeply loved.
Ling Tianya looked at the text message and imagined the way Ruan Zeyan looked when he wrote the it. He probably took it more seriously than his meeting.
She then returned the phone to Ling Tao, who carefully saved the text message so he wouldn’t accidently delete it. The way he treated this message was similar to how people treated an emperor’s edict in ancient times, which must be kept in the safest place without any chance of damage or loss.
Ling Tianya grinned and took a selfie at the table with her phone and sent it to Ruan Zeyan.
Ruan Zeyan had been busy lately, almost working non-stop. Having all these meetings was taxing on his mind as well as his body.
At this time, the air inside the conference room was stuffy and kind of suffocating.
Ruan Zeyan sat at the end of the table with no expression on his face, his eyes sweeping over everyone at the meeting. Nobody dared to look up or to really breathe.
The two brothers, Ruan Guosheng and Ruan Guofu, lowered their heads and exchanged looks in the dark.
Ruan Zeyan had already known that there were traitors inside the Ruan Family who were responsible for the consecutive assassinations that had happened.
All the attendees of this meeting were members of the Ruan Family. In addition to Ruan Guofu and Ruan Guosheng, the rest were all side branches of the Ruan Family and relatives.
What surprised Ruan Guosheng was that upon discovering this, Ruan Zeyan did not secretly investigate it, but instead put it directly on the table for everyone to hear.
The purpose was to shock everyone and use his actions to show the people present that he was the king with the throne and all those assassinations were nothing but trivial little tricks to him.
Ruan Guosheng kept his eyes low; his mood felt even lower.
Ding! Everyone in the room was stunned by the noise.
It was Ruan Zeyan’s mobile phone. He took his phone out with a straight face and saw the familiar name. When he opened the message, Ling Tianya’s selfie photo jumped out at him.
With her fingers pointing at the dishes on the table, the woman smiled with her tongue sticking out.
Then, the woman sent him another text message.
[I am at the Ling residence and when I saw the dishes on the table, I realized I should give someone credit. Someone did very well~ Give you a kiss for it~]
Seeing Ling Tianya’s photo and text, the man’s stoic expression turned into a smile, and his whole person immediately looked more gentle.
The people present all felt the change in the mood of the big boss and were all shocked by it.
Ling Tianya was eating when she got a text back from Ruan Zeyan.
[Not a practical reward.]
Ling Tianya blinked as her slender fingers tapped on the phone.
[What is practical then?]
After a short time, the man responded.
[I have a great bed and my house is very soundproof.]
Seeing such a reply, Ling Tianya blushed. His message took her back to B City and her grandma’s house. If it was not for the bed there that was too old and the room that was not soundproof, they probably would have done it.
He obviously was still thinking about that, too…
Ling Tianya put down her phone and felt too embarrassed to respond to Ruan Zeyan.
Ruan Zeyan, on the other end, waited in the conference room for a long time for Ling Tianya’s reply and could not help but frown but it didn’t come.
When the people in the conference room saw that frown on the boss’ face again, everyone quickly lowered their heads again.
Not long after, Ling Tianya received another message.
This time, Ruan Zeyan only sent a question mark.
Ling Tianya blushed again and quickly typed a few words and hit send.
Ding! The man’s phone made another noise, and he immediately opened the message.
The woman’s reply was very short [Got it…]
All of a sudden, Ruan Zeyan’s eyes flashed in excitement, and his mind wandered away from the conversation taking place in the conference room.
