Mrs. Gu didn’t understand. “Why can’t I go? Our family and your Uncle Ruan have known each other for a long time. I’ll go. I also prepared a gift.”
Wang Manpeng sat on the sofa and looked at Mrs. Gu. “Don’t go. I mean it.”
“Why can’t I go?” Mrs. Gu was a bit anxious. “I received Wang Yazhi’s invitation. There has to be a reason if I don’t go.”
“The reason is, if you go, you would die…” Wang Manpeng silently thought this in his heart and then stood up and walked to Mrs. Gu’s side to hug her. “I’m worried about your body. Didn’t you just get over a cold? At that time, a person’s immune system is at its lowest. If you appear now, in a crowded place, you’ll easily get infected by more bacteria. If you get a cold again, then won’t you feel even worse? You know your body. Whenever you get sick, you don’t get better easily.”
Upon hearing Wang Manpeng’s words, a smile showed on the originally unhappy Mrs. Gu’s face. “This guy. When did you learn to worry about your old mom?”
“I’ve always been worried about you. It’s just that I didn’t show it before.” Wang Manpeng threw both of Mrs. Gu’s dresses back into the closet. “You’ll still have the opportunity to participate in this type of banquet in the future. If you like it, then I’ll host a couple in the Gu residence. However, the prerequisite is that we must wait until your health gets better. So please, don’t go today.”
Originally, Mrs. Gu had wanted to go. However, since her son had said such nice things, if she still stubbornly attended the banquet at the mansion, then she would be opposing her son’s filial heart.
Mrs. Gu nodded. “Okay, then, I’ll listen to you. In a while, I will give Wang Yazhi a call and say that I’m not feeling well today, so I won’t be attending. When the time comes, bring them the gift that I prepared for your Uncle Ruan.”
Wang Manpeng nodded. “Okay. Coincidentally, I also have a big gift for Uncle Ruan.”
“Do you?” Mrs. Gu looked at her son curiously. “What did you prepare? Tell me.”
Wang Manpeng pursed his mouth and maintained his mysterious aura. “I can’t tell you now. You’ll know when the time comes.”
Mrs. Gu looked at her son in annoyance. “This guy, you’ve been mischievous since you were young.”
For the time in which Mrs. Gu believed Wang Manpeng to be Gu Zhiqian, she was extremely attentive to him. Wang Manpeng didn’t have anything against Gu Zhiqian and so, when facing his mother, he decided to soften his heart for the last time and give her a chance to live.
Gu Zhiqian looked at the clock. It was practically time. That day, he was going to expose Ruan Qishan’s hypocritical nature in front of everyone and then bomb the Ruan residence.
That day, everyone who attended the birthday banquet was going to accompany Ruan Qishan to the grave.
All of this was Ruan Qishan’s fault. Even if they wanted revenge, they would all have to go find Ruan Qishan!
At this time, Ruan Qishan’s birthday banquet was just about prepared, and all of the guests had arrived.
Recently, the Ruan Family had encountered many things. Especially when the Yuan Teng Corporation became privatized, Ruan Qishan and his family became the real winners who ran the corporation.
Privatizing the company was something that every major shareholder wanted to do but was unable to, because only a company that had the strength, the ability, and the future prospects could do something like that.
Also, not everyone had Ruan Zeyan’s ability to be able to privatize a whole company with just a word, without any care of being sloppy in his work.
The oldest Gu leisurely walked in supported by Gu Zhiqian and looked at Ruan Qishan, laughing. “Qishan, ah, congratulations. You’ve become another year older.”
