When I came to Qingyaju, I was seen by Tully, and they followed me into the box shamelessly. Then, as you saw, Tully humiliated me and my family. "
Gu Yang was puzzled: "She said that my uncle would be expelled from the Bess family. What's going on? Did he commit a crime?"
Ruan Meng shook her head, looking quite helpless: "Father did nothing wrong. It's just that our family is quite xenophobic and rarely intermarries with Orientals. Father's position in the Bess family is awkward, and he relies on mother for protection.
If my brother and I were not extraordinary warriors, it would be difficult for us to gain recognition from our family.
My mother is the eldest daughter of the Bess family, and she has two older brothers. However, my two uncles wanted to marry my mother off to form an alliance, so that she would lose the right to inherit the family.
At the beginning, my two uncles teamed up with the current patriarch of the Katie family to frame my mother, drugged her, and tried to facilitate a marriage.
But my mother met my father by chance, and then simply brought him back into the family as a son-in-law, thus cutting off the possibility of an intermarriage.
Later, the head of the Katie family also married a noble daughter and gave birth to Devin and Tally.
But two years ago, the patriarch of the Katie family became a widower and started to have feelings for my mother. Because my mother rejected him twice, he was so angry that he started a business war against the Beth family.
My two uncles also took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, causing the clan elders to become dissatisfied with my father and want to expel my father from the Beth family.
My mother made a bet with the elders of the clan. If they could win the business war against the Katie family, the clan would recognize my father and my mother would become the heir of the Beth family.
But if she loses, my mother will have to marry into the Katie family to recover the family's losses. At the same time, marrying out will also mean that my mother will lose the qualification to be the heir to the family."
For a large Western aristocratic family like this, open and secret struggles are inevitable.
But Gu Yang didn't expect that Uncle Ruan's status abroad was so embarrassing.
After all, the Bess family is a Western aristocracy that made their fortune in the underworld, and my aunt, as the daughter of the underworld, is somewhat overbearing.
Gu Yang asked: "What does this have to do with the cooperation with Good Pharmaceuticals?"
Seeing that Gu Yang took the initiative to mention Good Pharmaceuticals, Ruan Meng naturally would not hide it, "Before this, the business war between our two families has always been dominated by the Katie family.
But later, China's Good Pharmaceutical applied for several patents, which were extremely useful to the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. However, Good Pharmaceutical only gave the patents to the Good Beauty Salon under its name for use and did not sell them.
My brother said that if we could get a partnership with Good, our family would be able to turn the tide.”
Ruan Meng actually doesn't know much about business competition, and she heard a lot from her brother Ruan Bin.
She just wanted to do her best to help her father and mother and share her brother's worries.
Having said that, Ruan Meng looked at Gu Yang expectantly and said clearly, "Gu Yang, if you can help me, I will thank you.
Our family has a spice producing area that can produce hundreds of spice essential oils.
When my mother becomes the heir, I will take care of your essential oils!"
"Okay, okay. There's a saying in China that goes, 'You'll stick your neck out for your friends.'" Gu Yang patted his chest and assured, "We're all friends now, so of course I'll help you."
