Chapter 1034: Ruan Qishan’s Birthday Present (5)
After wasting so much time, they finally found a clue. “Notify everyone. Follow the importing and exporting company’s car there.”
The hidden guard looked at the time. “However, if the boss goes now, we won’t make it in time back for the chairman’s birthday banquet. Wouldn’t the others be suspicious?”
Ruan Zeyan glanced at the hidden guard. “We can’t worry about that much right now.”
Finding Ling Tianya was the most important thing. He had finally found a direction, so there was no way that Ruan Zeyan was going to leave.
In order to not interfere with finding Ling Tianya, Ruan Zeyan was temporarily staying on the outskirts of City H.
On the other side, Tao Dayu and the others finished preparing. They arranged for a car to return to the Ruan mansion before the birthday banquet so the KSI members wouldn’t have time to react.
Just like that, Ruan Zeyan moved into City H with his men, and Ling Tianya left City H with her men.
Like this, the couple perfectly separated…
…
In the Gu mansion, Gu Zhiqian’s mother was contemplating what to wear to Ruan Qishan’s birthday banquet and, upon seeing Wang Manpeng walk in, immediately asked with a laugh, “Zhiqian, ah, which one should I wear?”
Mrs. Gu showed Wang Manpeng two dresses. “I can’t decide. Help your mom choose which one looks better!”
Wang Manpeng looked at it and pointed to the one Gu Zhiqian’s mother was wearing. “That one’s good.”
Mrs. Gu lowered her head and looked at the clothes on her body, losing her smile. “Stop joking. These are the clothes that I wear at home. I can’t wear something like this to participate in your Uncle Ruan’s birthday banquet. How disrespectful would that be?”
Mrs. Gu compared the two dresses draped over her body. “Plus, right now, your status is different. You now represent the Gu family and are its head. I need to dress nicely so as not to embarrass you!”
Gu Zhiqian’s mother wasn’t Gu Zhiqian’s father’s original match, but someone he had married after his first wife. Besides Gu Zhiqian, there were also two older brothers and an older sister in the family, all from his first wife.
The oldest man in the Gu family liked his first wife’s grandsons and granddaughter better, hence he treated Gu Zhiqian, to whom his second wife had given birth, a little worse and didn’t care for him as much.
Therefore, Mrs. Gu and Gu Zhiqian didn’t have very high positions in the Gu family. Originally, when Gu Zhiqian’s father was still alive, he had treated Gu Zhiqian pretty well. However, Gu Zhiqian’s father died early, and after his death, Gui Zhiqian and his mother’s lives in the Gu family became harder.
However, luckily, Gu Zhiqian was a proper grandson of the Gu family. Although the old man didn’t like him much, he wouldn’t go so far as to mistreat him and even names him as one of the possible heirs.
The competition to become the Gu family heir had always been very fierce. Gu Zhiqian relied on the fact that he was on good terms with Ruan Zeyan to receive the old man’s favor.
However, Gu Zhiqian disliked the competition in his wealthy family and therefore, became an actor and did very well in show business.
The old man often grew angry because of this, and Gu Zhiqian’s mother was also helpless in the situation.
This time, the old man suddenly became very sick and, knowing that he didn’t have much time left, decided to confirm the heir and also place all of the company’s power in the heir’s hands.
In the Gu family’s competition to become the heir, no one had looked favorably on Gu Zhiqian. This was because they didn’t think that in the end, the one who would win the position of head of the family would be Gu Zhiqian.
However, no one knew that Gu Zhiqian wasn’t actually Gu Zhiqian, but Wang Manpeng with a fake identity.
Wang Manpeng looked at Mrs. Gu, who was in high spirits, and said directly, “Don’t go today. It’ll be fine if just the old man and I go.”
