Chapter 247 - No Accident
Ruan Guofu was annoyed by the compliment his brother was making about Ling Tianya.
“Hm! Brother, why are you still praising her?” Ruan Guofu couldn’t object to what his brother had said, but he was unwilling to admit that the biggest winner that night was indeed Ling Tianya.
Originally Ruan Guofu was hoping to take the opportunity and use Ling Tianya to knock Ruan Zeyan down. He was so arrogant in the office and didn’t respect him as his Third Uncle.
It turned out that Ruan Zeyan was not knocked down, instead he and his brother were publicly humiliated. It was a double loss for him.
Ruan Guosheng glanced at Ruan Guofu. “What are you grumbling for? You can see for yourself that everything that Ling Tianya did today was done by herself. She didn’t rely on Ruan Zeyan at all. I would not have said those words if she fell short at any moment and needed help from Ruan Zeyan.”
That time, even Ruan Guofu fell silent.
“You should go home and tell your trouble-maker wife and daughter not to mess with Ling Tianya anymore. They are not her contenders and they will only embarrass themselves in the end. ”
“I got it.” Ruan Guofu answered disgruntledly.
“And you too!” Ruan Guosheng pointed his fingers at his own younger brother.
“What about me?” Ruan Guofu didn’t understand.
“Your biggest weakness is your impetuousness. At such a crucial moment like this, you must learn to stand fast. Don’t have direct conflict with Ruan Zeyan, we must keep a low profile right now.” As he was speaking, Ruan Guosheng lowered his head and covered the chilling light shining through the bottom of his eyes. “The last assassination in City A failed. Even though the four killers did not betray us, the enemy has been alerted. To avoid any unnecessary troubles and future recoil, deal with the families of the four hitmen as soon as possible.”
“Okay. I understand.” Ruan Guofu answered solemnly.
Ultimately, the birthday banquet for Madam Ruan concluded in harmony. After saying goodbyes to all the guests, Ruan Zeyan was just about to take Ling Tianya home when he was stopped by Ruan Qishan.
Looking ponderously at Ruan Zeyan and Ling Tianya, Ruan Qishan said, “Find a time as soon as possible to invite Tianya’s family over for dinner.”
“Dinner?” Ruan Zeyan squinted his eyes. He didn’t know what his father’s intentions in seeing Ling Tianya’s family were.
Judging from his son’s expression, Ruan Qishan knew that he was being misunderstood. He looked slightly irritated when he added, “You are getting married, so the parents of both sides have to meet each other!”
Hearing that from his father’s mouth, Ruan Zeyan was shocked at first, then he steadily responded. “Okay, I will arrange it as soon as possible.”
“Hmm.” Ruan Qishan glanced at his son and then focused his gaze on Ling Tianya. “You did a lot of work for tonight and I want to thank you on behalf of my mother. When you go home, tell your father to feel free to make any requests. The Ruan Family is not going to be stingy when it comes to marriage.”
Everything happened so fast that Ling Tianya found herself speechless at that instance.
Until she was sitting in the car on the way home, Ling Tianya seemed still at a loss. “So, all your family members have officially accepted me?”
Ruan Zeyan pinched Ling Tianya’s nose and said, “Yes.”
Suddenly, a thought came into Ling Tianya’s mind and she grabbed Ruan Zeyan’s arm and said, “Grandma and Grandpa who passed away must have been very much in love in the beginning. It was love at first sight. So, if that person never appeared, the love between them would never have hit a rough patch. Life is so unpredictable, and you never know what will happen.”
Hearing Ling Tianya’s exclamation, Ruan Zeyan held on to her hand tightly and kissed her forehead. “Don’t worry, a rough patch like that will never happen between us.”
“Are you sure?” Ling Tianya asked.
“Yes.” Ruan Zeyan looked into Ling Tianya’s eyes and said seriously, “I will never allow any woman other than you to carry my baby.”
“What about an accident? I heard that back then Grandpa was set up by that woman.”
“Ling Tianya!” Ruan Zeyan was getting angry. “If there was really an accident like that, I would kill that ‘accident’ and her baby!”
