Chapter 1789 - 406: A Fortune Can’t Buy Concealment (Part 1)
From this perspective, Ruan Wencheng is the biggest victim, while Ruan Songxi is the biggest beneficiary.
Ruan Songxi might be the mastermind behind this scandal.
In affluent families, there is no real kinship, especially in a family like Ruan’s. It’s well-established that Ruan Wencheng has two illegitimate children; one is even interning at Ruan Group. Although not publicly acknowledged, everyone knows, just waiting to break the final window paper. This person is cautious and has repeatedly secretly targeted Ruan Songxi. Ruan Songxi has endured time and again and finally set an ace in motion.
If Ruan Wencheng falls, the illegitimate children who lose their backing are nothing but a ragtag bunch. Ruan Songxi is the legitimate heir of Ruan Group; those old ministers of Ruan Group would only support him.
Moreover, Ruan Wencheng has an engagement with the eldest daughter of Hong Kong’s old Liang Family. If he gets the Liang’s help, he would be unstoppable.
Therefore, Ruan Wencheng brought this upon himself; there is no escape.
But why did Zhuang Fanxing rush back? First, perhaps to divert attention, second... from a woman’s perspective, perhaps to witness Ruan Wencheng’s downfall in person.
Everything happened as Yun Ya expected. Soon, a scandalous video of Zhu Weier and Ruan Wencheng circulated, fully confirming Ruan Wencheng and Zhu Weier’s affair. Ruan Wencheng’s reputation plummeted. Previously known for his promiscuity, this time he’s sharing a woman with his son, disgraced by moral ethics. With further instigation, Ruan Wencheng became a sinner condemned by everyone.
Ruan Group’s stock dropped to rock bottom overnight, its market value evaporating by billions. The shareholders could not sit idly and convened a board meeting to discuss a plan regarding Ruan Wencheng’s scandal, ultimately deciding to have Ruan Wencheng hold a press conference to resign. Ruan Songxi emerged then, saving Ruan’s from perilous waves and stood firm with Liang’s help, gaining the board’s support. He also expressed forgiveness towards Ruan Wencheng, winning outside praise.
Zhuang Xiyue also attended the press conference. She rarely appears publicly, but this time, she announced in front of reporters that she’s filed for divorce in court, severing her marital ties with Ruan Wencheng, letting the court decide as it will.
Everyone witnessed this woman’s remarkable presence, not lamenting her fate but using legal tools to defend a woman’s rights.
It was a lesson for all women.
The mother-son pair played their roles, turning Ruan Wencheng in circles.
As for those mistresses and illegitimate children, Ruan Songxi controlled them so well they dared not make a sound.
Everyone realized how terrifying this man, usually known for his flirting and mediocre career focus, is when he takes decisive action.
The Ruan Group turmoil settled, and during Ruan’s and Liang’s engagement banquet, Hong Kong’s future commercial landscape is about to be completely rewritten.
The evening was a family banquet, with Zhuang Fanxing and Zhuang Xiyue absent; indeed, something was missing. The old lady wasn’t as spirited as during the day, perhaps missing her two daughters, secretly wiping tears away while Yun Ya and Zhuang Jingmo surrounded her. Zhuang Jingmo told jokes, and Yun Ya imitated sound effects, vividly amusing the old lady.
There were fireworks at night; the sky was ablaze with brilliant fireworks. Yun Ya looked up, his dark eyes reflecting the dazzling light.
Under the splendid fireworks, a tall figure stood quietly. In that fleeting brightness, the man’s resolute and handsome face was so clearly reflected in Yun Ya’s eyes.
Yun Ya stared in disbelief, and in the next moment, dashed over.
