Seeing that he didn't reply, Ruan Tang guessed that she had almost touched his bottom line. If she went any further, he would really ignore her, so she decided to quit while she was ahead.
She retracted her flirtatious attitude and sent a message to Auston again: "Do you still want to hear a bedtime story tonight? Can I tell you a story?"
It was as if Austin had disappeared, and he never replied again.
Ruan Tang, however, opened the book "One Thousand and One Nights" without paying any attention, turned on the voice recording mode, and started telling stories to Austin through the communication.
After forming the habit of telling stories to Austin, an older child, to put him to sleep every day, Ruan Tang herself couldn't adapt if she didn't tell him stories for a day.
But that night, until Ruan Tang finished telling the story, Auston didn't say a single word in response.
Ruan Tang saw that it was getting late, so she closed the book in her hand and said softly to the communication: "Good night."
I just turned off the lights and went to sleep.
On the other end of the line, Auston listened to Ruan Tang's story quietly, but in the darkness he inexplicably felt his cheeks getting slightly hot.
After this, although Austin no longer replied immediately to Ruan Tang's messages, he changed his habit of disappearing from the face of the earth. Ruan Tang looked for him more often, and he would occasionally reply to Ruan Tang with a sentence or two.
Although Ruan Tang was busy with work and couldn't see Austin, whenever he had some free time, he would squeeze out time to talk to Austin even if it was crowded.
"Sir, look, this is my lunch for lunch today."
"Are you doing anything now?"
"I saw a kind of flower blooming in our company's garden today. It's very beautiful. I want to share it with you."
…
Ruan Tang sent messages like these on her own, knowing that Austin would definitely read them, and she was happy even if she didn't get a response.
Auston looked at this annoying and clingy OMEGA, whose presence was still so strong even when they couldn't see each other, and who loved to cling to him so much. He immediately replied in annoyance, "Don't you have a job at the OMEGA Protection Association? You have so little time at work, and you still have time to post so many unnecessary things?"
"No matter how busy I am, I always have time to miss you." Seeing that he had indeed read her message, Ruan Tang immediately gave him another straight answer.
Auston immediately exploded: "What kind of bullshit are you talking about?"
This time, Ruan Tang might be busy with something, but it was Ruan Tang's turn not to reply to his message.
Auston stared at his personal terminal for a long time. Seeing that Ruan Tang had not replied to his message for a long time, he immediately got angry and complained to Vincent with a feeling of dissatisfaction: "You said that the current OMEGA is delicate and clingy, and is particularly shameless and likes to say nonsense. Is this still OMEGA?"
"..." Vincent did not comment on this.
After serving as an emotional counselor to Auston several times and listening to him complain about how he and Ruan Tang get along several times, no matter what Auston said to him now, Vincent regarded it all as him showing off his affection.
Anyway, both of these couples are sick and look abnormal. Let them do whatever they want.
…
After knowing that her mother was poisoned and became what she is now, Ruan Tang has been looking for information from all sources to find out who poisoned her mother.
No matter who harmed the people, Ruan Tang was determined to find that person and make him pay the price for what he had done.
After receiving a call from the person who had called her through Austin to investigate the matter, Ruan Tang immediately had a hunch: "Did they find out?"
"Madam, I have traced back the time when Ms. Tang Yun was poisoned and checked your father, his lovers, and many people who have interests with them... I found that the person with the greatest suspicion is your father's current wife, Ms. Xia Ruzhi." The person in charge of the investigation directly sent a series of data he had found to Ruan Tang's personal terminal: "After several investigations, I found that Ms. Xia Ruzhi had a maid who had been dismissed and had a younger brother who had been to a planet rich in that toxin and bought a certain amount of toxin. It happened that Ms. Xia was learning health preservation from a doctor at that time and was exposed to various drugs every day... And at that time, she was also very close to a cook who was good at the cuisine of your mother's home planet."
Ruan Tang's eyes darkened immediately.
The men that Austin lent to Ruan Tang were extremely meticulous in their work, and they found out much more than that. He took a deep breath and continued, "Also, I found that the accident that happened to Major General Ruan Yang was most likely caused by human factors rather than an accident. The Xia family had a distant relative who was also in Major General Ruan Yang's army, and was responsible for the repair of mechas... According to my investigation, the recovered data showed that it was this person and another mecha data engineer who repaired Major General Ruan Yang's mecha..."
"Although the mecha adjustment can't explain anything, and there is no evidence to prove it, I think the accident of Major General Ruan Yang is the best evidence..."
When these things were dug out, the people in charge of the investigation could only sigh in their hearts over and over again that Xia Ruzhi's mind was too vicious and destructive.
No one knew what sin the Ruan Tang family had committed to have a father like Ruan Ming and to have to deal with a villain like Xia Ruzhi who was deliberately plotting to kill people.
"Good, very good, excellent." Ruan Tang's anger reached its peak at once, but he laughed out loud: "Xia Ruzhi, Madam Ruan... I really underestimated her. Is there anything else she has done that I don't know?"
From childhood to adulthood, even when there was no evidence and several investigations were fruitless, Ruan Tang always had a vague suspicion and premonition in her heart that the accidents of her mother and siblings might not be accidents.
Now that the mastermind has been found out, Ruan Tang is not surprised at all for the moment.
It was just that I didn't expect that the mastermind behind this would be Xia Ruzhi, who usually looked stupid and cowardly and always obeyed Ruan Ming's orders... Just for the identity of Ruan Ming's wife, she actually ruined her own family to the current state.
The person in charge of the investigation heard Ruan Tang's cold voice, but continued: "And Miss Ruan, Marshal Ruan Ming had previously instructed Miss Ruan to keep secret the incident involving Major General Ruan Yang and the death of Miss Ruan's child... Then, one day, one of his subordinates leaked the news, and Miss Ruan knew about it, which immediately stimulated her mental state..."
"And the servant who leaked the news had private contact and financial dealings with Ms. Xia... Although these traces were later erased, I still found some clues."
Ruan Tang listened to him calmly, and her resentment towards Xia Ruzhi, Ruan Ming and Ruan Xi suddenly reached its peak.
He should have guessed it earlier. With a son as vicious as Ruan Xi...how could Xia Ruzhi be a good person?
He had been deceived by Xia Ruzhi's timid and cowardly appearance in front of Ruan Ming.
"Ms. Xia is very careful and thorough. After she became Mrs. Ruan, many traces of those things were erased, leaving only a few clues. The evidence may not be conclusive enough. If you need, I can check it again carefully." The person in charge of investigating the matter said dutifully.
Ruan Tang coldly read through the information he sent to prove that it was Xia Ruzhi who harmed them, and said politely to the person in charge of investigating the matter, "Okay, thank you then, thank you for your trouble."
After the communication was cut off, his face suddenly darkened, and his hands clenched into fists...
He said that if he could find out who was behind the attack on his mother, brothers and sisters, he would make them pay with blood.
"...Sir, can you lend me a few men? Preferably members of your personal guard." Ruan Tang gritted his teeth and informed Austin immediately.
Austin and Ruan Tang received the results of the investigation almost at the same time. After Ruan Tang sent him a message for help, he didn't even reply to Ruan Tang, nor did he ask him what his plan was or what he wanted to do. He just called him directly.
…
"Mo Zhi, you see, I was deceived by Ruan Tang before. Look, he is the chairman of the OMEGA Protection Association now. He is so powerful. I think it is obvious that he had planned to go for this position. I trusted him so much before and was deceived by him..." At this moment in the Ruan family, Ruan Xi, after recovering from his illness, found that Ruan Tang was doing very well and had become the chairman of the OMEGA Protection Association. He gritted his teeth in hatred.
His mental condition was very bad. After several consecutive blows, he looked like he had aged ten years. "I was too stupid. I didn't realize that he was such a sinister person. He would even sell out his marriage for that position. It was a pity that I wanted to save him."
Ruan Tang was doing very well and gradually came into contact with power, which seemed to be evidence in his eyes that Ruan Tang was a sinister and evil person.
He was eager to put this label on Ruan Tang to whitewash himself and create the image of a victim.
Before shaping his image, the first thing he urgently wanted was the recognition of his fiancé Shen Mozhi...
"Why do you pay so much attention to Ruan Tang?" Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, Shen Mozhi's face did not show any recognition of him. He felt sorry for him who was framed and wronged, and hated Ruan Tang who made him such a black-hearted person, but he was indifferent.
Unlike Ruan Xi, who had just recovered from a serious illness, Shen Mozhi had already heard about Ruan Tang's exposure to power and her success in this circle.
When he first learned about this, he was also very moved and surprised.
But it was not as Ruan Xi hoped, thinking that Ruan Tang was a black-hearted person. Everything she had done before was to pave the way for the glory at this moment.
He just couldn't help but think that Ruan Tang didn't seem to be like this in the past, and was far from willing to scheme against others, but now everything has changed...
It seemed as if everything that had brought Ruan Tang to where she is today was forced and created by them.
Looking at Ruan Tang now, and thinking back to Ruan Tang's original appearance, Shen Mozhi felt an inexplicable pain and regret in his heart.
However, seeing Ruan Xi couldn't wait to see Ruan Tang succeed and was about to put the blame on Ruan Tang, he strongly disagreed deep down in his heart.
Ruan Xi looked at Shen Mozhi in disbelief. She never expected that he would react like this: "Mozhi——"
Ruan Tang's current state has completely proved that he is neither a white lotus nor a good person. He is just a black-hearted lotus with ulterior motives and will do anything to climb up. But why is there no one who believes in him, sympathizes with him, and joins him in condemning Ruan Tang like in the past?
Ruan Xi was puzzled.
Shen Mozhi was silent for a moment, but said, "He's already married, and you two don't live together anymore. Whatever he does or doesn't do, it won't bother you anymore and has nothing to do with you. What happened before, since it's already like that, it's all in the past, why are you still pestering him now?"
In fact, he couldn't understand why Ruan Xi was so obsessed with putting the blame on Ruan Tang and proving that he was a black-hearted person.
