Sweet Love 1V1: Spoiled by The Executive - Chapter 111
Chapter 111: My Love for You Is Privilege (1)
Madam Ruan originally didn’t want to come to the party because she was still upset about her grandson getting engaged to that actress. She came to the conclusion that regardless how much she disliked Guan Meiyi, she owed it to her grandson to be present at their engagement party. That was the reason why she arrived late, but to her surprise, she ran into Ling Tianya at the entrance.
Inside the reception hall, Guan Meiyi had been there for a while, keeping the company of Wang Yazhi and Ling Qi while gracefully socializing with the guests and accepting congratulations.
Guan Jianlin also looked energized, holding his wine glass and accepting toasts with Ruan Qishan. He looked so proud of himself as if he was co-hosting the party.
Suddenly, the room was getting a bit rowdy.
Guan Meiyi turned her head and saw Madam Ruan. Her heart dropped a little because she thought the old lady would not come and she could get a chance to relax. Then, Guan Meiyi’s whole body froze when she saw the woman standing next Madam Ruan.
“Ling Tianya!” Ling Qi made an exclamation. She was certain that Ling Tianya wouldn’t have come that night.
“Why is she here? Even worse, she actually walked in with Madam Ruan!”
The faces of the Guans also darkened when they saw Ling Tianya. Ling Qi glared at Ling Tao who was behind them looking dumbfounded. Unsurprisingly, Qu Wan and Ling Yuqing looked pissed off too.
After Ling Qi made that exclamation, Ruan Qishan and Wang Yazhi finally noticed the woman Madam Ruan was holding on closely. Even though they met countless amazing people in their lifetime, Ruan Qishan and Wang Yazhi were still stunned by Ling Tianya’s beauty when they saw her.
She rivalled Guan Meiyi on looks and disposition, but she also had a sexiness to her that Guan Meiyi lacked. The turquoise bespoke dress she was in had a lacey train decorated with rhinestones, which flowed with her steps. She looked like a genie walking out of a fairy tale.
“Do you know her?” Wang Yazhi asked Ling Qi.
Ling Qi stared at Ling Tianya, exasperated, as if she wanted to eat her alive.
Guan Meiyi’s smile froze on her face, and her hands folded into tight fists.
Ling Yuqing was walking behind Madam Ruan and Ling Tianya, and jealousy filled her heart. She would never have thought that Ling Tianya knew the grandmother of Ruan Zeyan, and that she could walk in without an invitation!”
Seeing that her daughter’s face was getting increasingly depressed, Qu Wan nudged her discreetly, “Control your emotion, don’t forget that the Guans are here tonight.”
Ling Yuqing raised her head and looked across the room. Sure enough, every single person in the Guan Family — Guan Jianlin, Ling Qi and Guan Meiyi — all looked pissed. They were the ones who really didn’t want to see Ling Tianya. Ling Yuqing didn’t even have to handle Ling Tianya herself!
With that in mind, the depression disappeared from Ling Yuqing’s face, replaced by a hint of happiness. Surrounded by scandals, Ling Tianya’s reputation was in the gutters right then. There was no way that any influential and wealthy family would like her, no matter how shiny she looked!
All of a sudden, the room was filled with claps and cheers again. The current commander and chief of the Yuan Teng Corporation, Ruan Zeyan, arrived.
Dressed in a black tuxedo, Ruan Zeyan looked cold and out of their world. He was certainly a man that intimidated women, who would blame themselves for not being good enough for him.
Take Guan Meiyi for example, she was always extremely careful with every movement she made, fearing to death that some little details were not good enough for Ruan Zeyan. Because of this psyche of hers, she looked more and more timid and lacked self confidence in front of him.
The man walked in with those long legs with a steady pace. Welcoming the attention from everyone, his eyes circled the room. He found Madam Ruan and Ling Tianya and looked away immediately.
Madam Ruan chuckled proudly, “Miss Ling, look, that is my grandson! Isn’t he handsome?”
Ling Tianya didn’t say anything. Yes, Ruan Zeyan was very handsome, but she already knew that six years ago.
The arrival of Run Zeyan signaled the highpoint of the party. All the lights in the room dimed, conveniently hiding people’s emotions. The only place still lit was the podium.
Ruan Zeyan walked into the spotlight, looking shiny as ever. He spoke in a deep and clear voice, “Welcome everyone to the annual reception of the Yuan Teng Corporation…”
