He was getting bold! Du Gang was ready to ask Gu Zhiqian to leave, but Ling Tianya had already put her hand out, giving Gu Zhiqian a tight slap on the face, and pushed him away.


Gu Zhiqian was a little lost, he didn’t think that Ling Tianya would directly use violence with him, after all he did earn a living with his face.


“I’ve said it before, please be serious!”


Gu Zhiqian rubbed at his face with a grimace, whining, “You’re so violent! So, are you really not afraid? Your relations.h.i.+p with Ruan Zeyan is now public knowledge, you could be a target in the future.”


Gu Zhiqian’s words were clearly trying to sow discord between the two of them, Du Gang replied coldly, “I will protect my boss and Miss Ling’s safety, even if I have to give up my own life! Mr. Gu, you do not have to worry about that!”


Gu Zhiqian pouted, it was only then that he realized with a start that Du Gang had already snuck up behind him with a tight fist. “Alright, I knew you all were loyal to Ruan Zeyan!”


“You all?”


“Yup.” Gu Zhiqian nodded, “The person by Ruan Zeyan’s side six years ago was not him, it was a person named w.a.n.g Manpeng. w.a.n.g Manpeng was the same age as Ruan Zeyan and had been by his side since they were young. He was a shadow that Uncle Ruan found for Ruan Zeyan. His existence had only one meaning, one function. That was to protect Ruan Zeyan. He had to be his human s.h.i.+eld and take bullets for him.”


Ling Tianya gaped at Du Gang, didn’t that mean that Du Gang was also a man that was there to take bullets for Ruan Zeyan too?


Faced with Ling Tianya’s shock, Du Gang’s expression was grim. His dereliction of duty that day was his fault, he had not followed by his boss’ side, otherwise, those two bullets would never have made their way onto his boss’ body.


Gu Zhiqian tutted as he shook his head at Du Gang, before continuing, “Even though Manpeng was only Ruan Zeyan’s shadow, because of the fact that they grew up together, Ruan Zeyan always treated him as a brother. The three of us often played together, and barely recognized the difference between one another.”


“Then where is w.a.n.g Manpeng now?” Ling Tianya asked, but she vaguely already knew the answer in her heart.


“Dead.” Gu Zhiqian said lightly.


She had been spot on. “To save Ruan Zeyan?”


Gu Zhiqian nodded, his eyes sparkled as he looked at Ling Tianya, “Speaking of that, Manpeng’s death had something to do with you too.”


Ling Tianya’s brows furrowed deeper, Gu Zhiqian had said earlier that the person following by Ruan Zeyan’s side six years ago was not Du Gang yet, which meant that Manpeng had died six years ago.


Everything seemed to tie back to six years ago!


“Six years ago, was when Ruan Zeyan was about to take over as Yuan Teng Corporation’s CEO. It was a turbulent time. For safety, and to prevent unnecessary troubles, Ruan Zeyan’s outings had always been very off-the-radar, and he did his best to hide his ident.i.ty. Right then, he got to know you and fell in love. That was found out by Uncle Ruan, and he wouldn’t allow Ruan Zeyan to get together with a woman from unknown backgrounds, so he sent people to investigate you. Ruan Zeyan protected you well back then, even Uncle Ruan couldn’t get a single piece of information out. Because of that, Ruan Zeyan had gotten into huge fights with Uncle Ruan and had even broken off from the whole family because of that.”


“As Ruan Zeyan’s shadow, wherever Ruan Zeyan went, Manpeng would follow. From then on, there was a period of time where I did not see Ruan Zeyan and Manpeng at all. By the time I saw them again, it was in the Intensive Care Unit. Ruan Zeyan was teetering on the edge of life, and Manpeng was already a cold corpse.”


By then, Ling Tianya understood everything. She understood why Ruan Zeyan had hated her so much, why he would kidnap and torture her on Huxin Island, why he could be so confusing, being cruel to her, and yet also not being able to bear seeing her hurt.
