Chapter 155: Everything is Negotiable, Except Her (5)

When he heard the name Gu Zhiqian, Ruan Zeyan nodded his head without looking, “Tell him to see me in my office.” Then, Ruan Zeyan walked towards his office in big strides.


In his office, Ruan Zeyan sat in his large office chair. His phone showed Ling Tianya’s number and his finger was making circles on the screen. Finally, he gave up the idea of dialing and threw the phone to the side irritably.


The office door was opened from the outside. Gu Zhiqian walked in with a cold expression on his face.


Ruan Zeyan looked up at him. “The business in Hong Kong has been handled?”


“Don’t you have something you want to tell me?” Gu Zhiqian looked a little tired, because he had come straight from the airport.


Legs crossed and sitting back in his chair, Ruan Zeyan smirked. “Oh? What do I have to say?”


Gu Zhiqian leaned forward and propped both hands on Ruan Zeyan’s enormous office desk. Looking directly into Ruan Zeyan’s eyes, he said, “Things about Hong Kong. Things about Ling Tianya!”


Back in Hong Kong, Gu Zhiqian was held back by a bunch of things and unable to leave. A couple of times he attempted to make a move regardless, only to be stopped by his own father. He was practically on house arrested in Hong Kong. Then, he heard the news about Ruan Zeyan and Ling Tianya’s engagement. It made it clear to him that n.o.body other than Ruan Zeyan was capable of keeping him in Hong Kong and stopping him from going back.


When Gu Zhiqian mentioned Ling Tianya by name, Ruan Zeyan’s face darkened and he spoke in a much colder voice. “You should feel lucky that you are Gu Zhiqian and not someone else.”


Gu Zhiqian sneered. “Do you mean that if I was not Gu Zhiqian, if I wouldn’t have the Gu Family behind me, I would not just have been on house arrest in Hong Kong, but rather have disappeared from this world?”


Ruan Zeyan said nothing, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking.


Gu Zhiqian nodded his head, indicating that he fully understood the situation. Then, he sat down in the chair across from Ruan Zeyan and said in a slightly unhappy tone, “I bet Ling Tianya doesn’t know what kind of person you truly are. Are you sure that she will still want to marry you after she finds out?”


A chilling light flashed in Ruan Zeyan’s eyes as he said in a deep voice, “Zhiqian, between you and I, everything is negotiable, except her.”


Lips sealed, Gu Zhiqian seemed to be pondering something. When he was in Hong Kong, he was not free to go places, but he was not cut off from the outside world. So, he too saw the interview of Ruan Zeyan in front of the hotel where he said Ling Tianya and him started dating six years ago. That’s when Gu Zhiqian realized that the woman Ruan Zeyan was deeply in love with six years ago was Ling Tianya.


It was just too ironic. If Ruan Zeyan had told him in the beginning that Ling Tianya was that woman from six years ago, Gu Zhiqian would simply keep his distance from her. The reality was he only got to know the truth after becoming serious about her.


Without saying one more word, Gu Zhiqian stood up and walked out of Ruan Zeyan’s office.


After Gu Zhiqian left, Ruan Zeyan became even more agitated. He called Du Gang in, “Where is Ling Tianya?”


When Ling Tianya heard about Huang Yuqing getting kicked out of the Ling Family, it was already a few days later. The news didn’t bother her; however, she was curious what had made Ling Tao behave in such extreme way. She knew her father, who would not have done it just because Huang Yuqing planted a conspiracy online. Whenever Qu Wan begged him with tears, Ling Tao would always cave in. Something must have happened that made Ling Tao so furious that he kicked Huang Yuqing out of the door.


Ruan Zeyan’s handsome face crossed Ling Tianya’s mind. Could it be him who had done something?


All of a sudden, Ling Tianya saw in distance that Ruan Zeyan was walking towards her with that familiar coldness. “Be careful what you wish for…”
