Chapter 1036: Ruan Qishan’s Birthday Present (7)

Ruan Qishan exchanged greetings with the oldest Gu, laughing, and then, the silent Wang Manpeng asked, “On such a big occasion, why don’t I see Ruan Zeyan?”

“He said that there were some things he had to do in the company and that he would be arriving late,” answered Ruan Qishan.

“Ruan Zeyan is a good kid. I’ve watched him grow up, and when he does things, he doesn’t base them on feelings and sensibilities. His methods are ruthless. Even when I personally stepped in, he didn’t show me any weakness,” said the old man, smiling and yet not.

Ruan Qishan understood that although Old Man Gu was praising Ruan Zeyan on the surface, in reality, he was complaining about him.

Ruan Zeyan always separated work and private matters, and through the few times he had cooperated with the Gu Corporation, the old man hadn’t been able to get a leg up on him.

Once, because Gu Zhiqian posted something on Weibo that attracted controversy, it created differing rumors on the internet about the relationship between him and his daughter-in-law. This action infuriated Ruan Zeyan, and he directly took the Gu Corporation’s project and two pieces of their land. Even when Old Man Gu stepped in to ask for a favor, Ruan Zeyan didn’t budge, causing the Gu Corporation to lose a lot of money.

However, because the Gu and Ruan families were longtime friends, the business collaborations between the two families had never ceased. Soon, the Gu family earned back the money that they lost to Ruan Zeyan with a project that they collaborated on with the Yuan Teng Corporation.

However, Old Man Gu was narrow-minded and always remembered things that made him lose money.Although he knew that Old Man Gu was complaining, since he was older, it wasn’t proper for Ruan Qishan to say anything more to him.

At this time, Madam Ruan walked over, and her mouth slanted upon seeing Old Man Gu. “We invited you today to celebrate a birthday, not to hear you talk endlessly without getting to the point. Who do you blame for not being able to stand up against my grandson?”

Madam Ruan had never minded talking about people and would verbally attack whomever she pleased. Even if the other party was Old Man Gu, she would still publicly call him out.

Old Man Gu was shocked that Madam Ruan had publicly called him out, so much so that he was unable to retort.

Ruan Qishan was embarrassed and smiled, embarrassed, at Gu Zhiqian.

His old mother’s mouth did not spare anyone. Whenever she didn’t like someone, she would speak sarcastically and not show any weakness, no matter who she was facing.

Wang Manpeng looked at Madam Ruan. Setting aside the rest of their situation, he quite admired Madam Ruan. At the very least, she lived with her eyes open and could see through many things, unlike other people, who, despite living for a long time, clearly couldn’t see through the friends beside them.

One example was his father…“Father, look from the sky. Today, I will avenge you. I will make Ruan Qishan pay with blood!” he thought.

All of the guests attending the banquet had arrived. However, Ruan Zeyan still hadn’t shown up, so the banquet still couldn’t properly begin.

Wang Mandy walked over wearing a purple evening dress and shared a look with Wang Manpeng, emotion in their eyes that could only be deciphered by the two siblings.

Wang Manpeng lifted the corner of his mouth. He knew that everything was already prepared. Under Wang Mandy’s cover, all of the bombs had successfully entered the mansion. At this time, his subordinates had likely used the pretense of setting up speakers to set up the bombs at every corner of the banquet hall.

In a moment, as soon as he pressed a button the remote in his hand, the entire banquet hall would be razed to the ground!

“Ling girl, what did Ruan Zeyan say when you called him? Why isn’t he back yet?” Madam Ruan asked Wang Mandy.

Wang Mandy froze and then bit her lip gently. She had called Ruan Zeyan many times, but none of them had gone through!
