Mu Heng took Ruan Mengmeng into a low-key and luxurious Mercedes-Benz sedan and passed by a black Volkswagen sedan.
The black car stopped in front of the Fengqing Club, and then a middle-aged man in ordinary clothes got out of the car and stood in front of the door of the Fengqing Club.
He habitually straightened the wrinkles on his clothes and walked into the club.
He looked to be about fifty years old, with silver hair on his temples, but he was still steady and walked with a breeze.
The manager looked at his car parked outside, a Volkswagen Phaeton.
So he became more respectful and politely said to the middle-aged man: "Sorry, sir, it's not business hours yet."
"I'm here to see your boss, her name is Zhao Yan." said the middle-aged man in a strong and powerful voice.
The manager didn't dare to offend him, so he said politely: "Sir, please wait here for a moment. I'll send someone to pass on the message."
In the top-floor office, Zhao Yan watched Mu Heng and the others leave from behind the window.
At this time, an employee came up and said to Zhao Yan: "Sister Yan, there is a man downstairs who wants to see you."
Zhao Yan frowned and asked in confusion: "Men?"
The employee nodded.
"I understand. I'll go right away." Zhao Yan pinched her eyebrows and said tiredly.
I'm afraid it's that noble official again who wants to ask her to do something.
Zhao Yan quickly composed herself, went downstairs with a friendly smile on her face, and greeted the employees along the way.
Arriving at the first floor, the manager came forward and greeted her: "Sister Yan."
"Who's looking for me?" Zhao Yan asked in a friendly manner.
The manager pointed to a corner of the sofa in the hall and motioned Zhao Yan to look over there.
Zhao Yan looked over and her gaze paused. Then the middle-aged man looked up at her as if he had sensed something.
After Zhao Yan saw the man's appearance clearly, the smile on her face froze instantly.
She immediately turned cold, turned around and left, and said to the manager beside her: "Close the door, thank you."
The manager looked confused, and Zhao Yan walked quickly, as if trying to avoid something scary.
He turned around and saw that the middle-aged man had come to the center of the hall in the blink of an eye and shouted anxiously, "Zhao Yan!"
Zhao Yan acted as if she didn't hear anything and walked faster and faster.
The middle-aged man quickly caught up with her and said as he walked, "Zhao Yan! I'm here to talk to you about something!"
Zhao Yan suddenly stopped and turned around unexpectedly. She looked at the middle-aged man with a cold face and said, "I don't know you. What do you want to talk about?"
The middle-aged man hesitated to speak. Knowing why Zhao Yan was so angry, he said gently and tactfully: "Let's find a place to talk it out."
Zhao Yan opened her mouth to reject him coldly, but the middle-aged man spoke first, "It's about the child."
When Zhao Yan heard the middle-aged man mention the word "child", she immediately turned hostile and said angrily: "Ruan Zhengsheng, don't f*cking use the child to make excuses!"
Zhao Yan suppressed her anger. If she hadn't been in the hall with so many people around, she would have cursed at Ruan Zhengsheng, the bastard.
Ruan Zhengsheng sighed tiredly and said, "I didn't dare to joke. I had a physical examination some time ago and was diagnosed with cancer. It's advanced liver cancer."
The words that Zhao Yan wanted to say were stopped abruptly. She stared at the middle-aged man with an unhappy expression, as if accusing him of using cancer as an excuse.
Ruan Zhengsheng calmly accepted all of Zhao Yan's scrutiny. He looked tired and his voice sounded weak.
Zhao Yan relented and said, "I'll give you ten minutes."
"Okay." Ruan Zhengsheng nodded gratefully.
"Let's go upstairs and talk." Zhao Yan took Ruan Zhengsheng directly to the office.
Zhao Yan did not ask anyone to make tea or prepare refreshments to entertain Ruan Zhengsheng, but asked indifferently: "What do you want to say?"
Ruan Zhengsheng sat on the sofa in a dejected manner, as if he had aged a lot overnight. He sighed and said, "I have lived to such an old age, but in the end I am nothing."
Zhao Yan sneered with disdain.
Ruan Zhengsheng didn't care and continued, "There's not much time left for me now, so I came to you... to make up for what happened back then."
Zhao Yan couldn't bear it anymore and said sarcastically, "Oh, to make up for what happened back then?"
"Ruan Zhengsheng, who do you think you are? Can you make amends just by saying you want to?!"
"Can the sins you committed be erased?!"
"Can Xiaoyue survive?!"
"Also, can her daughter regain her own life?!"
Ruan Zhengsheng listened to Zhao Yan's abuse silently and silently agreed to her accusations.
Whenever Zhao Yan thought of what her good friend had experienced in life, she would tremble with anger and her eyes would turn red.
She raised her head and pushed back the tears from the corners of her eyes.
It’s not worth it to cry because of scumbag!
After Zhao Yan fell silent, Ruan Zhengsheng slowly said, "I know I was extremely wrong back then. If you want to blame me, I don't blame you either."
"I won't live long either. When I go to the underworld, I will sincerely apologize to Yue'er. But..."
Ruan Zhengsheng paused and said, "What I am most worried about now is my and Yue'er's daughter. She has already lost her mother. If she loses the protection of her father, I am worried that she will have no family to support her in the future."
"You and Yue'er have a good relationship, so I came to you and entrusted our daughter to you... I think this is what Yue'er would want."
As Ruan Zhengsheng spoke, his voice became choked and his eyes were red.
"Zhao Yan, I hope you can treat her like your own daughter. She is still young and doesn't have much experience... I hope you can help her with some things. You don't need to watch over her all the time, but it's enough to lend a hand when she's in trouble."
"Zhao Yan, as long as you agree to this request, I don't mind giving you Ruan. In the next life... in the next life, I will definitely work like a cow or a horse to repay you."
Ruan Zhengsheng stood up, suppressed his reluctance, and bowed deeply to Zhao Yan.
"Zhao Yan, Yue'er and I's only daughter, I'm leaving her in your care."
When Zhao Yan heard Ruan Zhengsheng's last words, her tears fell.
She took a deep breath, raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said to Ruan Zhengsheng who was still bending over and bowing: "Who cares about your company? Xiaoyue is my only good friend, and I take care of her daughter. I am definitely not sympathizing with a scum like you."
"I won't tell this generation about the things of the previous generation, but - I will never forgive you, Ruan Zhengsheng, for the mistakes you made." Zhao Yan said viciously.
If Ruan Zhengsheng had not foolishly provoked Xiaoyue and then left without saying a word, Xiaoyue would not have died of premature birth due to her hard life.
And Ruan Mengmeng wouldn't have such a hard life now.
That’s right, Ruan Mengmeng is actually the daughter of Ruan Zhengsheng and a young dancer named Xiaoyue.
Ruan Zhengsheng had the opportunity to switch the child and arrange it to the Ruan family because Tao Hongmei's second child died in her womb.
He hid it from everyone, including his parents and wife.
