Chapter 69
Ruan Leyi wanted to contact Shi Wan and meet with her, but all the messages she sent fell on deaf ears. She couldn't get through when she called, and she went to the Gu family's old house, but she couldn't even get into the gate of the villa area, and was watched by many people.
When Ruan Leyi went back, she covered herself tightly and argued with the security guard in the security booth, "I'm Shi Wan's biological mother. He lives in there, so why can't I get in? Don't touch me, open the door quickly and let me in."
"I'm sorry, ma'am, Mr. Shi Wan didn't say his mother was coming to visit. Why don't you make an appointment with him before you come?" The security guard spoke calmly without any emotion.
"You'll know if you let me in and meet him." Ruan Leyi's face was full of impatience. How could a security guard dare to stop her? When she saw Shi Wan, she would fire all these people. What lowly people they were!
"Sorry, you are not the owner. Outsiders are not allowed to enter without the owner's permission." The security guard was impartial and had obtained permission from Shi Wan. Moreover, they were doing things according to the rules. The people living here are either rich or noble. They are here to protect the safety and peace of the owners. If someone said they were a relative or friend of the owner and came to establish a relationship with him, would the owner still be able to keep quiet?
Isn't the reason you spend a lot of money to live here just to feel comfortable?
"You - please call Shi Wan out to me!" Ruan Leyi's face was dark, her nails dug into her palms, and she didn't feel any pain even when the nail on her middle finger was broken.
"We have asked Mr. Shi and Mr. Gu, and they said they don't know you." The security guard rolled his eyes secretly in his heart. He didn't know what kind of mother didn't even have her son's phone number. I heard that Mr. Shi grew up in an orphanage. The Pei family made Mr. Shi and Mr. Gu get married for two million yuan. How could they have the face to look for him now after selling him out?
How shameless!
"Call in front of me and I'll ask in person!" Ruan Leyi didn't know where her confidence came from. Even though she couldn't contact Shi Wan, she still felt that she could reconcile with Shi Wan. She even felt that as long as she showed her goodwill to Shi Wan in person, Shi Wan would lick her like a dog.
Ruan Leyi regards things that have no basis as the golden rule, and she thinks they are true anyway.
"Ms. Ruan, you can call Mr. Shi and Mr. Gu yourself. We don't have their contact information." The security guard had a professional smile on his face.
"Aunt Ruan, why are you here?" Xue Tianrui frowned and looked at Ruan Leyi. What was she doing here? She was yelling at the security guard. She was really undignified.
"Second Young Master Xue." The security guard greeted Xue Tianrui respectfully, with an attitude completely different from that towards Ruan Leyi.
"Xiao Xue, I went to Gu's house to look for Shi Wan for something, and this security guard kept stopping me. Please explain to him clearly who I am." Ruan Leyi adjusted her hair gracefully, and now she was in good spirits again.
"Mr. Shi and Mr. Gu said they didn't know Ms. Ruan, and Ms. Ruan didn't make an appointment with them. According to the regulations, no one can be let in without the owner's permission." The security guard didn't feel scared or anything. He was doing things according to the regulations. Even if this person knew Young Master Xue, it would not have any impact on him. After all, they were under the Gu family.
"Well, can I take her in then?" asked the Second Young Master Xue with a frown.
"Okay." The security guard nodded and asked Ruan Leyi to make a visitor record. The visitor was Xue Tianrui.
"Aunt Ruan, let's go. I'll take you in." Xue Tianrui didn't even get out of the car and showed little respect to Ruan Leyi. Ruan Leyi wanted to sit in the passenger seat, but Xue Tianrui said coldly, "Sit in the back."
Ruan Leyi was afraid that she would not be able to get in, so she had to endure it. After sending Ruan Leyi to the door of Gu's house, Xue Tianrui drove away. The security guard watched the two people go in, turned around and called the Gu family's housekeeper to tell the housekeeper the news.
So when Ruan Leyi knocked on the door, the butler had already told Gu Zhinian. Gu Zhinian looked at Shi Wan, but Shi Wan was so focused on the picture in her hand that she didn't hear what the butler said to Gu Zhinian at all. Gu Zhinian walked over to Shi Wan, hugged her in his arms, and relayed what the butler had said to him before asking, "Wanwan, do you want to see me?"
"Let's meet her and tell her not to come again." Although those blocked text messages and calls will not be received, ten or twenty reminders every day are also annoying.
"Well, send someone to notify Xue Tianze to come over. Since it was his brother who brought the person in, he should be responsible." Gu Zhinian rubbed Shi Wan's fingers and gave instructions.
"Yes." The butler nodded and went to do it.
Ruan Leyi was brought in, and the servant took her to the reception room. After serving tea, they left. The huge reception room was deserted and no one came. Ruan Leyi sat there for ten minutes and still didn't see Shi Wanlai. She was about to leave, but was stopped by the people at the door.
"Madam, you can only stay in the reception room, or you should leave." The servant was respectful, with a smile on his face, but with a bit of coldness. Ruan Leyi didn't dare to confront the bodyguards outside when she saw them, so she could only shake her sleeves and go back to continue sitting.
Ruan Leyi was already thinking about how to make Shi Wan apologize to her when they met. It would be best if Gu Zhinian gave her a villa here so that those bodyguards who looked down on others would not dare to stop him.
If Shi Wan knew about Ruan Leyi's thoughts, he would probably not even think about meeting Ruan Leyi. If he dared to think like that, he would not be able to sleep at night. After all, the dreams he had at night were not so outrageous!
It was not until Ruan Leyi had been sitting for more than forty minutes that Shi Wan and Gu Zhinian came. Wearing the same comfortable home clothes, Shi Wan and Gu Zhinian sat directly in the main seats. The butler brought them drinks and stood beside them.
"Shi Wan, where's your upbringing? Have all those years of studying led to nothing? I'm your mother, you..."
"Shut up. If you have something to say, say it. If not, please leave. Now you remember that you are my mother? Have you forgotten what we said before and want me to recall it for you?" Shi Wan's voice was cold, there was no emotion on his face, and his eyes were also cold. Ruan Leyi said more than once that I don't have a deaf, sickly and disabled son like you.
"You—" Ruan Leyi was choked and speechless. She met Gu Zhinian's cold eyes and didn't dare to shout anymore. "Come home with me. I was deceived by that little bitch Pei Shijin before. He bewitched me. You are the child of the Pei family, you are my son. Come home with me, and everything in the Pei family is yours..."
"Pei family? What is the Pei family?" Shi Wan asked with his head tilted and his eyes full of innocence, which made Ruan Leyi's face unable to hold back.
"Shi Wan, come home with me. I will make it up to you. I am your biological mother. I gave birth to you. I gave birth to you myself." Ruan Leyi covered her face and burst into tears. "I was deceived by Pei Hongyuan and Pei Shijin. How could I not love my own son?"
Anyway, as far as Ruan Leyi is concerned, she is not wrong! It's all someone else's fault!
"Sometimes I really wonder what's wrong with your brain? How can you be so shameless? You gave birth to a child yourself, isn't that your way of getting Pei Hongyuan home? You love your own son, but when I was found, you clearly saw Pei Shijin wrongly accusing me, but I still pretended not to know?"
"How could you forget? When Pei Shijin fell, you were watching on the second floor. Do you think no one saw it?" Gu Zhinian listened to Shi Wan talking and held Shi Wan's hand, with the corners of his lips straightened. How old was Shi Wan at that time? A child had to endure all this in a strange place.
"I...I...I didn't mean it. Why didn't you say it..." Ruan Leyi avoided Shi Wan's gaze guiltily. "Besides, don't you want the Pei family's money? Would you be willing to give it all to that bitch Pei Shijin?"
"Mrs. Pei, do you think my assets are not as good as the Pei family, which is on the verge of bankruptcy?" Gu Zhinian put his arm around Shi Wan's shoulders. "Why did Wanwan get involved in your Pei family's mess?"
"Don't message me or call me in the future. It's annoying. I have nothing to do with your family. You gave birth to me and bought me for two million. You didn't support me during the years I was in the Pei family. We are even now." Shi Wan looked at Ruan Leyi. Ruan Leyi stood there in a daze with an empty heart. She opened her mouth but didn't utter a word. She felt a little panicked inside.
The memory of Shi Wan's affection for her when she was taken back to the Pei family was becoming increasingly vague. Ruan Leyi wanted to pull Shi Wan away but was blocked by Gu Zhinian.
"No, Shi Wan... Shi Wan, I, I..."
"Since Master Xue is here, I'll leave this matter to you. It was your brother who caused this, so you should handle it. Is that okay? Or is it that Master Xue can't handle it well and needs me to do it?" Xue Tianze was already standing at the door.
"No need, I'll take care of it." Xue Tianze glanced at Gu Zhinian with a cold face, showing no emotion.
"That's good, there won't be a next time." Gu Zhinian said, and then he led Shi Wan out of the reception room. "Mrs. Pei, if you harass my lover again, the Pei family will go bankrupt immediately. I wonder how much you will have to pay for the things that your small company has done."
Ruan Leyi's face turned pale instantly, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and her lips were shaking so much that she couldn't open her mouth.
