Chapter 109 The Tail



The Lin family's 20th anniversary celebration was a great success. The Lin family was very generous and booked out the entire hotel for the anniversary celebration.

Since Lin Ruanruan was the 'host,' she arrived exceptionally early; when she got there, the registration process hadn't even started yet.

The hotel entrance was decorated with flowers and banners, making it look very grand and festive.

Li Shuzhen felt sorry for her daughter, so she told the two of them to go to the lounge to rest for a while. Xuan Yuanhaocheng sat in the lounge reading a book while texting Huo Xian.

Today, the Huo family is attending the Lin family's anniversary celebration as invited guests. Huo Xian has already set off from home in order to see Lin Ruanruan as soon as possible.

Fang Lan was also sending messages enthusiastically in the group chat. His brother was also attending as an invited guest, and he directly asked his brother to come out for some fresh air.

As for Lin Ruanruan, she was still dozing off when she suddenly felt a chill and couldn't help but shiver. She quickly opened her eyes and rubbed her arms.

Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng looked at her, "Cold?"

He glanced at the indoor temperature displayed on the air conditioner and was a little puzzled. Wasn't this temperature just right?

Lin Ruanruan shook her head. "No, I just feel like someone is thinking about me."

"You have this function too?" Xuan Yuanhaocheng raised an eyebrow.

Lin Ruanruan pouted, "I'll stay with you guys today to prevent any accidents."

"You're very clever," Xuan Yuanhao commented calmly.

...

"The Lin family's daughter likes Pinggu?" Old Master Liang looked at Liang Yin'er with some surprise. "How did you know that?"

Liang Yin'er said with a smile, "Grandpa, this is something everyone in our circle knows. Anyway, you were invited to the Lin family's anniversary celebration today, so this is a good opportunity to find out what they're thinking."

Old Master Liang's face darkened. "How dare you say such things to me? If it weren't for you, our cooperation with the Lin family would have been finalized long ago. Now we need this old man to stand up and fight for the opportunity!"

"I've long since stopped liking you as my granddaughter, so don't give me these ridiculous ideas. Do you think I don't know what kind of people you and your brother are?"

Old Master Liang turned and left. He needed to hurry up and find a new heir from the collateral branches. Liang Yin'er and Liang Pinggu were good-for-nothings.

However, Liang Pinggu suddenly appeared out of nowhere and blocked the way for Grandpa Liang. "Grandpa, Lin Ruanruan really likes me. Please grant us your blessing!"

Old Master Liang hesitated for a moment, "Are you telling the truth?"

Liang Pinggu nodded quickly, "It's true, we like each other!"

A glint flashed in Old Master Liang's eyes. "Then you'll come with me to the Lin family's anniversary celebration today."

Liang Pinggu immediately became happy, and Liang Yin'er, who was standing next to him, seized the opportunity to say, "Grandpa, I'm going too. I'm very close to Lin Ruanruan."

Old Master Liang glared at Liang Yin'er, "Forget about you, go back to where you came from, and don't embarrass me in the Liang family."

Grandpa Liang's words made Liang Yin'er feel utterly ashamed, but she didn't dare to argue back, after all, she had just been kicked out of the house by her grandfather not long ago.

Liang Pinggu was a little anxious when he saw that his grandfather did not agree to his sister going with him. If his sister did not go, their plan would not be able to work.

"Grandpa, please let my sister go with us. Lin Ruanruan is my sister's follower and listens to her every word."

Grandpa Liang hesitated for a moment, but eventually relented.

He had heard a little about Liang Yin'er's past practices in the industry, and he believed Liang Pinggu's words to some extent.

Liang Yin'er finally got her wish and boarded the car to the Lin family's anniversary celebration venue. She secretly exchanged a glance with Liang Pinggu, a hint of smugness flashing in her eyes. She had arranged everything and was sure she could win over Lin Ruanruan today.

The presence of Grandpa Liang, Liang Yin'er, and Liang Pinggu surprised everyone, as they all knew that Grandpa Liang and Liang Yin'er had recently gotten into a fight at the South Suburbs Club.

Old Master Liang even declared on the spot that he would expel Liang Yin'er from the Liang family, so why is she bringing people to the event now?

Upon entering the venue, Liang Yin'er, with her sharp eyes, spotted Lin Ruanruan and the others.

But she didn't go over there. She quietly pulled Liang Pinggu away to another place. If she went to greet people now, she would give herself away in front of her grandfather.

Grandpa Liang didn't care where the two went. His main purpose in coming today was to sign the contract and, incidentally, to ask the Lin family if they had any plans for a marriage alliance.

At this moment, Lin Ruanruan was unaware that someone was already setting a trap for her. She was chatting with Huo Xian and complaining about how authoritarian and excessive Xuan Yuan Haocheng was.

"Xianxian, do you know what? I have to get up early every day to go for morning exercise. If I don't go, he tells my parents. If I secretly skip breakfast, he tells me too. If I play games for too long, he scolds me..."

Huo Xian, suppressing a laugh, watched Lin Ruanruan and retorted, "Ruanruan, I don't think there's anything wrong with what Brother Haocheng is doing."

Lin Ruanruan was momentarily speechless. She sighed, "No wonder you're a couple; you two understand each other so well."

She just couldn't understand it at all.

Huo Xian couldn't resist pinching Lin Ruanruan's little cheek; all this guy does is talk nonsense all day long. Amidst their playful banter, Lin Tianba on stage began his speech.

The large screen displays relevant content, which is nothing more than the company's past achievements and future development.

Fang Lan, who was listening from the side, was almost dozing off. "It's a bit boring..."

Lin Ruanruan nodded in agreement, "That's basically it for the morning. It mainly consists of speeches from company leaders and keynote speeches from invited guests, sharing industry information and such."

"The fun team building activities and exhibition visits are in the afternoon."

Fang Lan was looking around aimlessly when he suddenly made eye contact with someone. He immediately looked down and said, "Damn, Ruan Ruan, why did your family invite the Xu family?"

He actually saw Xu Chaosheng here, and now he's a little afraid of him, okay?

Lin Ruanruan shrugged helplessly, "It seems that the Xu family wants to cooperate with our family on something, so we specifically tried to invite them this time, and they actually came."

"If you're bored, let's go upstairs to the lounge."

So the four little ones quietly left the scene. Liang Yin'er, who had been observing Lin Ruanruan from a distance, lit up and quickly followed.

She kept looking for an opportunity for Lin Ruanruan to be alone, but Lin Ruanruan was always in a crowd and she couldn't find an opportunity.

The venue was packed with people today, and elite individuals were conversing everywhere, which made Liang Yin'er, who was following behind, feel no qualms.

Lin Ruanruan and the others didn't notice that a tail was following them.
