Chapter 714 Marriage
Half an hour later, in a clubhouse in the imperial capital, Ruan Qi brought Mo Lan into a private room.
In the private room, He Yun had already arrived. She was sitting on the sofa. When she saw Ruan Qi come in, she didn't get up. She just gathered the fur shawl around her shoulders and raised her chin with dignity.
"Ms. Ruan, please sit down."
Ruan Qi walked to the sofa opposite He Yun and sat down.
He Yun glanced at her, then shifted his gaze slightly to Mo Lan beside him: "Ms. Ruan, I'm not used to having outsiders around when I'm talking."
Ruan Qi was taking off her coat. When she heard this, she paused and her beautiful peach blossom eyes curved slightly.
"Mrs. Cheng, there's one thing you might not understand: you were the one who asked me to meet you today, not me. If you're not used to having outsiders around, I'll leave first. When you've gotten used to it, I'll come back and talk to you."
After saying that, she put on her half-taken coat and stood up to leave.
He Yun didn't expect that Ruan Qi not only didn't accept his intimidation, but was also ready to leave. The reserve and arrogance on his face suddenly disappeared.
"Miss Ruan!" She hurriedly called out to Ruan Qi, "I really have something important to tell you."
Ruan Qi stopped and turned to look at her.
He Yun smiled stiffly, "Miss Ruan, shall we sit down and talk?"
Ruan Qi stood there without moving.
He Yun cursed secretly in his heart, but he had to compromise and said to Mo Lan: "Miss Assistant, please sit down too. Don't mind what happened just now."
After hearing this, Ruan Qi slowly turned around and sat back.
He Yun breathed a sigh of relief calmly, gathered her shawl and resumed her noble ladylike demeanor.
"Ms. Ruan, I asked you to meet me today, and you should know why."
Ruan Qi raised her eyebrows but said nothing.
Seeing her silence, He Yun had no choice but to continue, "My son Cheng Jiabin is planning to marry into the Liu family soon. But that young Liu Feng from the Liu family has been causing some trouble recently, and has even been recorded in some rather inappropriate videos. My father is quite critical of the Liu family because of this, and he also doesn't approve of Jiabin's marriage. Miss Ruan, there's a saying that goes, 'It's better to demolish ten temples than to break up a marriage.' If a good marriage is ruined because of that video of Liu Feng, it would be a sin, wouldn't you agree?"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Qi nodded in agreement.
"Yes, it's a sin. Your old man is so unreasonable. How could he not let his grandson get married just because of a video? What era is this? He still wants to ruin people's marriages. How feudal!"
The little girl's condemnation was sincere, but He Yun's smile froze on his face.
What she wanted to hear was not Ruan Qi's fancy condemnation of Mr. Cheng.
He Yun gritted his teeth and said with a stiff smile, "Ms. Ruan, I heard from the Liu family that the video of Liu Feng is in your hands..."
Ruan Qi took a sip of tea and nodded, "It's indeed in my hands."
He Yun's eyes lit up when he saw her admitting it so readily: "Ms. Ruan, since the video is in your hands, can you delete it? Don't worry, I won't let you delete it in vain. Our Cheng family will make compensation."
"Oh?" Ruan Qi raised her lips, "How does the Cheng family want to compensate?"
He Yun smiled ambiguously: "Miss Ruan, your brother Mr. Ruan is still single, right?"
Ruan Qi: “…”
"Mr. Ruan started from scratch and developed the Yunqi Group to its current size in just ten years. It's truly astonishing. However, no matter how capable Mr. Ruan is, he's only one man. If he could have a virtuous wife with strong financial resources to help him..." He Yun smiled meaningfully, "That would be a good thing for both Mr. Ruan and Miss Ruan, right?"
Ruan Qi: "...What does this have to do with me?"
"Miss Ruan, it's not easy to be the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family."
He Yun glanced at her with a look that said, "I've been through this before." "Miss Ruan and Mr. Xi have a deep relationship, but the Xi family is a top-tier wealthy family after all. Miss Ruan will definitely face many restrictions when she marries into them. Although President Ruan can be your backer, the Yunqi Group is still a little inferior to the Xi family. If the Xi family really bullies you, I'm sure President Ruan will be powerless. However, if you can have a sister-in-law from a wealthy family, the Xi family will also be more polite to you for your sister-in-law's sake. Miss Ruan, am I right?"
