Sweet Love 1V1: Spoiled by The Executive - Chapter 146
Chapter 146: This Princess (6)
The reporters rushed to surround them, and the Guan family’s way out was blocked by Ruan Zeyan’s men. With nowhere to run, they could only face the reporters head-on.
“Miss Guan Meiyi, what do you have to say about the content of the video?”
“Miss Guan, Miss Ling is your cousin, did you do something like that because of hate born from love?”
“Miss Guan…”
The questions came crashing at them consistently, as though the reporters wanted to strip Guan Meiyi of her skin. Even though Ruan Zeyan arranged for people to block off the Guan family’s exit route, he didn’t arrange for them to protect the Guan’s, and merely watched as the three of them were surrounded from all sides, making even taking one step a tremendously difficult task.
Seeing how frazzled the Guans were, Ling Yuqing’s feet started to turn cold. She knew that by that point in time, the Guan family would never forgive her. Similarly, her life in the Ling family would not be smooth sailing anymore.
Ling Yuqing’s face was as pale as a sheet as she shook in fear, she glared at Ling Tianya, before completely losing her grip on her emotions and lashing out, “Ling Tianya, you did this on purpose! You dug a trap for me to jump right in!”
Ling Tianya sat in her seat, her eyes narrowing in a slight mocking fashion. “I merely adapted to it.”
Ling Yuqing was aghast, she had completely lost, Ling Tianya had clearly seen through her, every nook and cranny. Since the day that she had initiated a makeup, since the day that she had started working at the set, Ling Tianya had already started to lay down her enormous plan.
She thought everything was in her hands, thinking that she could really ruin Ling Tianya for good. She was still too naive, too childish, resulting in her ruining all of her past years of work.
Guan Jianlin thought that he had come there in order to watch Ling Tianya fall, that was why he had only brought his chauffeur. Who knew that in the end, the one to have all their dignity crumbled was their family.
The reporters were shoving at each other in their urgency, in that situation, it was impossible that not a single security guard had shown up to help them. Guan Jianlin had been screaming at the top of his lungs for the entire duration, yet not even their shadow had shown up to help out. The hotel’s security guards were just standing right in front of them, and yet they had all treated him like air and stood in their assigned spots.
Guan Jianlin turned and seeing Ruan Zeyan stand there with a cold face, he understood.
The reporter’s questions became more and more tough to answer, Ling Qi had never had to face a situation quite like that before. Her body kept getting jostled around as she tried to navigate her way out. As she followed Guan Jianlin out, she couldn’t help but shriek as she protected Guan Meiyi in her hold, leaving the premises after a long and tough fight.
Due to the mess that the place had become, the press conference was forced to a stop. The reporters had received all of the information that they had ever needed, and some extra sweet information as the cherry on top.
Of course, the most shocking news was Guan Meiyi’s public image being smashed to rubble.
The day’s press conference certainly was like a great big joke, Ruan Qishan felt like he was watching a cheap comedy, so eventful and noisy that his head hurt.
His face was devoid of any emotions as he stood up, taking slow, deliberate steps to Ling Tianya. Ling Tianya stood, calmly meeting his gaze, confident but not too overpowering.
Ruan Qishan’s brows lifted, he’d seen enough and had gotten used to people bending their backs over to please him. Even Guan Meiyi had purposefully acted obediently in front of him. It was only Ling Tianya that had dared to meet his gaze head-on. That woman seemed to be different from what he had imagined, but it could just as easily be a facade, the hardest thing to predict or read thoroughly in the world was the human heart.
With that thought, Ruan Qishan’s face smoothed out back into its usual stoicism.
Ruan Zeyan walked to Ling Tianya’s side, holding onto her hand determinedly, meeting Ruan Qishan’s look head-on. The father and son looked extremely similar, the only difference being time’s effects on Ruan Qishan’s features, making him look a lot more mature and wise.
Neither of the two spoke, but the pressure around the both of them seemed to drop to suffocating levels.
Wang Yazhi stood by Ruan Qishan’s side, her face twisted into one of discomfort, but not daring to make a single sound. She was afraid that the two of them would yet again argue because of a woman.
After some time, Ruan Qishan broke the eye contact, slowly turning over. “Bring her back home for dinner some time.”
Hearing that, Ling Tianya paused. “What does he mean?”
Before she could really understand it, the man beside her had already gripped onto her chin, planting a firm kiss on her lips.
Ling Tianya glared at Ruan Zeyan in her annoyance, but all she was met with was Ruan Zeyan’s warmest and most loving gaze.
