Li Guoliang was stunned, "This Ran Xiangsi... what is she to you?"
Ran Zhonghai glared at Ran Yingqian, signaling her to shut up. Then he hurriedly turned back, politely saying to Li Guoliang, "Xiangsi is my daughter. Her mother passed away early, and she didn’t grow up by my side over the years. Fortunately, the child grew up safe and healthy. Now, I’m thinking of arranging a match for her with the Gu Family’s young master..."
"No way!" Li Guoliang interrupted before Ran Zhonghai could finish his words!
Are you kidding? Ran Xiangsi is already Xing Chen’s wife, how could she be introduced to Gu Beichuan? Isn’t that courting death?
Just before entering, Li Guoliang was still puzzled as to why Xing Chen had specifically called him over. Now he understood.
Xing Chen had ntioned before that he and Ran Xiangsi were secretly married and couldn’t tell anyone. This must an that even Ran Zhonghai didn’t know.
But Xing Chen had entrusted such an important secret to him, didn’t that an he valued him?
So, at this mont, he had to stand up and defend Xing Chen’s position! Maybe if Xing Chen was pleased, he might put in a good word for him with the higher-ups, and he’d rise to the top in no ti?
However... Li Guoliang’s sudden loud shout instantly startled the other four people present.
Everyone looked at him curiously, not knowing why he suddenly got so agitated.
After shouting, Li Guoliang was also stunned, not knowing how to explain...
...
On the sa floor, in a private room.
Ran Xiangsi stirred the fruit salad with a fork, then picked a bright red strawberry and put it in her mouth.
The manager was live-broadcasting the situation in the VIP room.
"That’s how it is now. Everyone is silent, waiting for Li Guoliang’s explanation. The appetizers have already been finished."
After the manager finished speaking, Xing Chen waved his hand, dismissing him.
Ran Xiangsi continued eating, nodding occasionally. It was unclear whether she was praising Li Guoliang or complinting the taste of the fruit salad, "Li Guoliang is quite smart, knowing how to curry favor with powerful people."
Sitting on one side, Xing Chen heard what the manager said and understood the current situation in the VIP room. "Is this your purpose for bringing Li Guoliang here?"
As he spoke, Xing Chen spread his hands and took out a cigarette and lighter from his suit pocket.
With his slender fingers, he fiddled with the lighter, lighting it on and off.
His jet-black eyes fixed on the dancing fla, seemingly admiring its enchanting form.
"Pretty much. He knows about my relationship with you. With him around, he will definitely sever ties between and Gu Beichuan. By then, my dad will have to give Li Guoliang so face, right? Besides, they’ve already eaten. Would they dare deny it in front of Li Guoliang?" Ran Xiangsi spoke calmly, as if she had anticipated everything.
"But... I’m still a bit uncertain. Would that impulsive, hot-headed, brainless Gu Beichuan understand Li Guoliang’s hints?"
Compared to Ran Xiangsi’s many uncertainties, Xing Chen kept it simple, "In three minutes, we will go there together."
The aning was clear; if he appeared beside Ran Xiangsi, would Gu Beichuan still not understand the situation?
Unless he really was an idiot.
Hearing this, Ran Xiangsi squinted at Xing Chen, seeing him light the lighter again, close to the cigarette, as if he was about to light it.
