After Liu Fen was chased out of the study, the issue was known by Madame Ling not too long later, and she earned herself another round of scolding.

On the other hand, when the Yuan Teng Building’s top floor’s meeting room door opened, it was already afternoon of day two.

After a whole night of torture, these men were all tired to their bones.

That night, Ruan Zeyan did almost nothing and merely kept them all locked in the meeting room. This one night felt longer than their entire life. Everyone here knew that something had happened within the family — someone wanted to kill Ruan Zeyan. They were truly afraid that Ruan Zeyan would execute all of them in order to have peace of mind.

They had kept their guard and suspicion up against each other the whole night, spending it in worry and fear. Almost no one dared to close their eyes for a nap and forced themselves to stay awake no matter how afraid they were, worried that they would be framed and end up as the sacrificial lamb.

Ruan Guosheng and Ruan Guofu lagged behind the entire group, their faces heavy as they looked at each other, and yet neither of them spoke not a single word.

They knew that Ruan Zeyan was still keeping an eye on them.

It wasn’t until they had exited Yuan Teng Building, sat into their car, did Ruan Guosheng finally let down his defenses. He turned around and gave Ruan Guofu a huge slap on the face.

“Didn’t I already mention that we shouldn’t act rashly! Why did you still get into contact with the assassin and order a hit on Ruan Zeyan!”

Ruan Guofu wasn’t too happy about getting hit. “We’d paid the money anyway. It was one hundred million dollars!”

“So what! Are you that poor that losing one hundred million will bother you?” Ruan Guosheng glared at Ruan Guofu. “Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re scheming. Let me tell you, it’s not that easy to go bring Ruan Zeyan down. This time, you were careful, and you didn’t let the assassin know your identity. If you had, do you think you would still standing here today?”

Ruan Guofu rubbed at his face, unhappy and resigned. “Brother, are we supposed to just let Ruan Zeyan climb all over our heads now? I refuse!”

“Hngh!” Ruan Guosheng huffed, “I don’t want to leave it at this either, but for now, we aren’t able to touch Ruan Zeyan at all. The assassination that you ordered in Country E just alerted him of our presence. From today onwards, Ruan Zeyan will just increase the security around him!”

Ruan Guofu gritted his teeth. He was starting to regret his actions too. He should have listened to Ruan Guosheng and waited for the right time, instead of being so impatient.

“Then what should we do next? Are we going to just give up like that?”

Ruan Guosheng looked forward, a smile playing on his lips. “We can’t touch Ruan Zeyan, but it doesn’t mean we can’t target others.”

Ruan Guofu thought, “You mean Ling Tianya? But I heard that Ruan Zeyan had sent his most trusted men, Big Guy and Small Guy, to protect Ling Tianya. Isn’t it going to be difficult to get close to her?”

Ruan Guosheng shook his head, frowning with impatience. “You just don’t use your brain! You only know how to kill and fight. To make someone despair, other than taking away their life, there are other methods.”

“And what would those be?” Ruan Guofu was lost.

Ruan Guosheng laughed. “What do you think Ruan Qishan’s family desires the most right now?”

Ruan Guofu furrowed his brows. “Money? Surely not… Power? Not that too…” Ruan Qishan and Ruan Zeyan already possessed all of these. “What is it then?”

Ruan Guosheng’s eyes shone with glee, as though having seen the pathway to heaven. “A child!”

Ruan Guofu’s eyes lit up with surprise, as though immediately understanding what Ruan Guosheng meant. “That’s right! A child! They want a successor! If they can’t birth a successor, then the Ruan family will…”

Ruan Guofu didn’t finish his words, but he shared a look with Ruan Guosheng, and the dull feeling in his heart immediately gave way to a wave of delight.
