Mr. Ruan had already met everyone he was supposed to see. Thinking that Lu Jing and Wen Jiu were still waiting for him, he sent his assistant to get the wedding gifts for the young couple.
After getting the gift, he was about to send someone to find Lu Jing and Wen Jiu, when he looked up and saw the two people walking this way.
Mr. Ruan smiled at Lu Jing and greeted them: "You two, come with me."
Lu Jing quickly led Wen Jiu to follow him, and entered the lounge next to him with Mr. Ruan.
There were two sofas in the lounge, forming an L shape. Mr. Ruan sat down and casually asked them to sit down. He took out a square box and handed it to Wen Jiu: "Here, take it, I wish you both a hundred years."
It’s a good fit.”
Wen Jiu took it with a smile: "Thank you, Grandpa Ruan."
"Open it and see if you like it."
Wen Jiu nodded and opened it cooperatively. Inside was a necklace with an exquisite design. The middle pendant was a blood-red gem the size of a fast pigeon egg.
Wen Jiu looked surprised and exclaimed, "Wow, so beautiful. Thank you, Grandpa Ruan."
"It's okay if you like me." Mr. Ruan looked at Lu Jing again and sighed, "Old Lu is tied up abroad by his new wife and can't come back. Xiao Jing, if you have anything in the future, you need the old man to help you solve it.
Yes, you come to me directly."
"Thank you, Grandpa Ruan." Lu Jing thanked him, but his face showed little joy, as if he was hesitant to speak.
Mr. Ruan realized that he had something unspeakable to say, and said directly: "Just tell me what you have to say. I don't remember you having such a mother-in-law temperament when you were a child."
Lu Jing said directly: "Grandpa Ruan, there are some things I didn't want to say, but you are so good to me, I really can't hide it."
Mr. Ruan's expression changed: "Oh? What's the matter? Tell me."
Lu Jing said directly: "Xiuxiu's fiancé is not a good person. He once hurt my wife. He has a bad reputation and a bad reputation. I really don't understand why, Grandpa Ruan, you agreed to this marriage?"
Listening to Lu Jing's sincere tone, Wen Jiu looked like she was only thinking about the Ruan family. She was almost deceived.
But he only heard him analyze the reasons two days ago. He understood why Mr. Ruan had to agree to this marriage, and he knew how to save his life.
I'm still here now, full of indignation and saying I don't understand.
I won’t watch the next Oscars without you!
Mr. Ruan didn't know that Lu Jing, the person who set the fire, was still here to set the fire. He thought that Lu Jing was just an outspoken junior.
He sighed faintly: "I'm not isolated from the world. In fact, I know all the voices outside. I understand everything you said, but no one can interfere with what Xiuxiu insists on. But I can't watch this marriage.
It will last for a long time, let her play around for a few years."
Lu Jing said worriedly: "I failed to protect my wife well back then. I don't want my wife to be harmed anymore. If Xiang Zichuan becomes a member of the Ruan family now, then the cooperation between our two families in the future..."
Lu Jing glanced at Wen Jiu hesitantly, his eyes indicating: It's your turn.
Wen Jiu immediately understood what he meant and tugged on Lu Jing's sleeve: "A Jing, stop talking."
After saying that, he looked at Mr. Ruan cautiously, twitched the corner of his mouth and forced himself to smile, and said sensibly: "It's okay, Grandpa Ruan, don't worry. What happened back then was all about children being ignorant. I'm getting better now, so I won't
It will delay the cooperation between the two companies."
After a pause, Wen Jiu said worriedly, "We are just worried that Xiuxiu will be deceived because of her young age."
Mr. Ruan was sullen and silent for a moment, fully understanding what the two children meant.
If we don't give an explanation today, the two companies will feel uncomfortable cooperating in the future.
He pondered for a moment and called the assistant in: "Go and call Xiang Zichuan in alone! I don't know how to serve tea to the elders at the engagement party!"
The assistant responded and immediately went out to call someone.
Lu Jingye said roughly: "Since your future grandson-in-law is here to serve tea, we will go out first."
After saying that, he pulled Wen Jiu away.
Mr. Ruan said: "No, you just listen here."
Lu Jing and Wen Jiu were both standing up halfway, so they had no choice but to sit back down after hearing this.
Two minutes later, Xiang Zichuan came in. He glanced at Wen Jiu and Lu Jing, who were sitting quietly on the sofa, and couldn't help but slightly frowning.
When the assistant went out to ask him to come over to serve tea, Ruan Xiuxiu wanted to come in with him, but the assistant insisted that he come alone.
At that time, he realized that the old man must have something to say to him, and he was mentally prepared.
But I didn't expect that these two people were also there.
Could it be that the old man wanted to embarrass him in front of these two people?
Before Xiang Zichuan could figure it out, Mr. Ruan suddenly spoke in a nonchalant manner: "What are you still standing there for? Are you afraid that the tea will burn me?"
Xiang Zichuan came back to his senses, reached out to pick up the tea on the table, and handed it to him with both hands: "Grandpa, please drink tea."
Mr. Ruan didn't answer, but said in a cold tone: "According to the rules of my Ruan family, you have to kneel down when serving tea to your elders."
Xiang Zichuan realized that Mr. Ruan wanted to embarrass him in front of these two people.
His back was straight and didn't move.
Mr. Ruan sneered: "Xiao Qiao's father suffered a stroke and has been hospitalized for so many years. It's up to you to turn against the guest. Our Ruan family will not let you take advantage of this loophole. You can make up for your past mistakes, but the premise is that you must be obedient."
Xiang Zichuan's face was livid and he was silent for a few seconds. In the end, he didn't refute anything and really knelt down in front of everyone.
He served tea again: "Yes, grandpa's lesson was right."
Wen Jiu lowered his eyes slightly and sneered. He was quite capable of bending and stretching.
That’s right, what kind of dignity can there be for a person who does whatever it takes to climb up?
Mr. Ruan took the tea, but did not drink it or let him get up.
Xiang Zichuan lowered his head, as if waiting for trial.
Mr. Ruan said slowly: "I am the only granddaughter. Everything in the Ruan family is beautiful. Apple's board of directors has stipulated that only one of the couple can stay at the top, so from today on, you hand over your position at Apple."
All powers."
Xiang Zichuan raised his head instantly, his eyes frightened: "Isn't it true that you are not married yet?"
And... why?
When he was asked to kneel down just now, he didn't react so much, but when he was asked to evade him, the veins on his forehead jumped, and there was a hint of ferocity in his eyes.
Mr. Ruan never showed any joy and showed no emotion on his face, but he was extremely oppressive: "The Ruan family is a well-known figure in Beicheng. A public engagement is equivalent to a marriage. Since you have benefited from the Ruan family, you have to pay the price."
Xiang Zichuan's Adam's apple moved up and down, but in the end, he lowered his eyelids helplessly: "Okay, I understand."
"Yes." Mr. Ruan then handed the tea cup back to him.
From beginning to end, he didn't take a sip.
He also used this to show that he did not accept Xiang Zichuan at all.
Agreeing to the engagement was just a delaying tactic to appease the granddaughter.
Xiang Zichuan, however, has no right to complain.
He stood up silently and was about to leave when Mr. Ruan suddenly said: "Wait a minute."
Xiang Zichuan paused: "Grandpa, do you have any other instructions?"
Mr. Ruan glanced at Wen Jiu comfortingly, then turned to look at Xiang Zichuan. His face suddenly turned cold: "Give you a chance to forgive me and apologize to Mrs. Lu!"
