Chapter 124
The lonely soul in the cotton doll: "..."
Ran Yunqing laughed out loud: "As expected of a pampered canary, she fits the character."
Immediately, he reacted and looked at her with worry: "If you are so unworthy of being reused, won't the family property be taken away by others?"
Although Ran Yunqing was not in the circle of wealthy families, he had heard about the situation of the Luo family.
Luo Zhouheng's coming to power only managed to suppress the originally chaotic situation to some extent.
There seems to be harmony on the surface, but there are undercurrents inside.
If you are not careful, you will be swept into the torrent and unable to escape.
A series of scenes of snatching family property emerged in Ran Yunqing's mind.
She jerked.
No, it can't be like this!
For a wonderful and luxurious life, for a worry-free life in the future, and for a salty life in the future.
She grabbed Ning Ruochu's hands and shook them vigorously: "You must stand up!"
Ning Ruochu: “…”
She shook off Ran Yunqing's hand and asked, "If you had 10 million in front of you, would you spend it all to satisfy your desires, or live off the interest for the rest of your life?"
Ran Yunqing said as a matter of course: "Of course I choose the latter?"
Ning Ruochu: "Then why do you think I'm dumber than you?"
Ran Yunqing: “…”
It seems like I was scolded.
Not sure, listen again.
She coughed lightly to hide her embarrassment.
"If that's the case, then why did you leave halfway?"
A light laugh escaped from Ning Ruochu's throat, and her childish face blossomed like a tender flower, gorgeous and charming.
"Luo Zhouheng's people will take care of everything. I just need to watch quietly."
How could she not see that today's farce was planned by Luo's uncle?
After all, he is the most prestigious person in the Luo family, so it is inevitable that he can't keep his temper.
Ran Yunqing was shocked and scolded: "How come such a good thing happened to you!"
"Speaking of which, why did Luo Zhouheng choose to marry you when there were so many other daughters of wealthy families to choose from?" She still hasn't figured it out.
At the time of the marriage, relations within the Luo family had reached a freezing point. As soon as Grandpa Luo left, relations would immediately fall out.
Marrying a wife of equal status would be a great help to Luo Zhouheng.
However, he chose Ning Ruchu, who was vulgar, had no real talent, and had no financial support after being brought back recently.
Ning Ruochu tilted her head: "Do you think Luo Zhouheng needs external help given his strength?"
When Luo Zhouheng came to propose marriage, she was also surprised, but she quickly figured it out.
He married his wife only to fulfill Mr. Luo's last wish.
The fact that he was the founder of Lingxintang was enough for Ran Yunqing to admire him for the rest of his life.
The year it was founded was the same year that Ran Yunqing became a disciple.
She remembers clearly.
Twelve years ago.
At that time, Luo Zhouheng was just a fifteen-year-old boy.
Why would such a person need help from in-laws?
……
Two hours later, the meeting ended.
Ling Chuan rushed over without stopping, knocked on the door and entered. Seeing that Ning Ruchu looked back to normal, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned sideways and asked Ran Yunqing who was standing beside him: "What is the condition of Madam's health?"
Ran Yunqing rolled his eyes silently in his heart.
Haven’t we found a lot of doctors to treat Ning Ruchu in the past two years?
Why are you asking me?
"Ma'am, she..."
Ran Yunqing's voice suddenly stopped.
Ling Chuan was instantly anxious: "What happened to Madam? Is she suffering from an incurable disease?!"
Ning Ruochu: “…”
Ran Yunqing: “…”
I am not afraid of Western medicine smiling, but I am afraid of Chinese medicine looking down on people.
She had only hurriedly stuffed two pieces of pastry into her mouth before Ling Chuan came in, and before she had even swallowed them, she had already made him so excited.
"It's not that serious." Ran Yunqing explained, "Madam is weak and frail. It has been a long-term condition and it is difficult to treat."
Seeing that Ling Chuan was about to have another attack, she hurriedly said, "But as a disciple of the head of Lingxin Hall, I have my own way of dealing with this. Madam has insisted on taking medicinal food in the past few years, and her qi and blood have recovered a little, but if she wants to truly recover, I need to use acupuncture, moxibustion, medicine and other treatments to be effective."
Ling Chuan was relieved: "Thank you, Doctor Ran."
He held out his hand, gesturing "please".
"My wife and I have something to discuss. Doctor Ran, please step aside."
The head of Lingxin Hall is a leading figure in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, and his disciples are naturally respected.
Staring at the office door closing, Ling Chuan turned around, leaned down beside Ning Ruochu, and lowered his voice: "Madam, Madam Ye said a few days ago that she wanted to see you, but I saw that you were not in a good state and had been through so many things, so I declined."
Ye is not a rare surname.
But from her current identity and the respectful tone Ling Chuan used when he mentioned the old lady, Ning Ruchu could roughly guess who she was.
"Dad." Sheng Qianwei tugged at his arm and whispered in his ear, "Walls have ears, keep your voice down."
After being reminded by her, Sheng Gaojun exhaled slowly and his heart calmed down.
"I didn't think it through."
He still couldn't help but complained in a subtle voice: "It's just a small vase, and it dared to get ahead of us."
Sheng Qianwei looked flustered, "Dad, please stop talking."
No matter what Ning Ruochu is, he is still the current head of the Luo family.
The Sheng family has existed for hundreds of years and has countless branches in China, but most of them have declined.
Except them...
Sheng Qianwei knew better than anyone how she got this status.
……
In the private meeting room, Dong Zhaoyan was wearing a black slim-fitting skirt with ruffles on the chest like petals, and a simple white jacket on the outside.
The eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were sharp as he stared at Ling Chuan: "Secretary Ling, are you here because of the public opinion on the Internet?"
Ling Chuan nodded, his voice steady: "This matter has had a significant impact on my wife and you, so I would like to discuss a solution with President Dong."
Dong Zhaoyan smiled softly and clasped his hands together: "Since Secretary Ling can take over Luo Zhouheng's position, he must have found a solution."
Ling Chuan had no choice but to take out the prepared documents and show them.
"This is a copy of Mr.'s will, written in his own handwriting, and witnessed and signed by two lawyers."
Dong Zhaoyan glanced at him calmly and raised his eyes: "So, you want to save Ning Ruchu?"
She doesn't understand.
She expressed her gratitude to Ning Ruchu, but the world of fame and fortune was complicated and a young girl who had not experienced much of the world could not grasp the overall situation even if the people around her were very capable.
After the funeral, Dong Zhaoyan also investigated.
To be honest, there was nothing about Ning Ruochu that she liked. She was weak and incompetent, had no real skills, and relied entirely on Luo Zhouheng's favor.
After returning, she asked a private doctor to check Dong Qingran's injuries, and found that he was almost healed.
But if it weren't for her daughter's request, she would not give Ning Ruchu face in public.
Now, he has gotten himself into trouble.
"I am just following the master's will. The dead are the greatest." Ling Chuan's tone was fair and serious, with determination.
"It is an established fact that my wife is the legal heir and cannot be tampered with. Both families are prominent and there is no need for them to be swayed by public opinion."
The Internet has no memory. Once the storm is over, who will take it seriously?
Dong Zhaoyan lowered his eyebrows and looked deep in thought.
She admired Luo Zhouheng very much. With his talent, he would surely be able to resolve the conflicts within the Luo family and lead the Luo family to a new peak.
It's a pity that he died young.
Three seconds later, she looked up and stared at Ling Chuan.
"I can cooperate with you, but you have to prove to me that Ning Ruchu is qualified."
Ling Chuan readily agreed: "No problem."
……
The special assistant respectfully escorted Ling Chuan out and went in: "Boss Dong, Mr. Sheng and Miss Sheng are here."
Dong Zhaoyan was slightly stunned and almost forgot that he had another meeting.
"Let them in."
Sheng Gaojun was depressed when he saw Ling Chuan walking out of the office.
He actually came to Dong Zhaoyan just for such a vase and took up their time!
Sheng Qianwei clenched her hands and her eyes darkened.
All of this should have belonged to her!
She pursed her lips.
Neither the title of Mrs. Luo nor the loyalty of her subordinates should be taken away by Ning Ruchu.
Sheng Qianwei was not unable to afford to lose, but she was unwilling to accept the fact that everything fell on the heads of a crude countryman who was so different from her.
Even if Luo Zhouheng threatened me, so what?
He is dead now and can't do anything.
The sword hanging over his heart also disappeared with his death.
Sheng Qianwei took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and entered the private meeting room with Sheng Gaojun.
……
Pearl Villa.
In Luo Zhouheng's study, Ling Chuan was reporting to Ning Ruochu about the Dong family's attitude towards this matter.
After listening to this, Ning Ruochu breathed a sigh of relief: "I have caused them trouble for no reason, I hope the Dong family doesn't mind it."
Ling Chuan frowned.
The lady is just like that, innocent and kind-hearted.
I always consider others in everything, but always ignore my own feelings.
He turned his head, glanced at Ye Yue, and then turned back: "Madam, Commander Ye and I have something to discuss, please step aside."
Ning Ruochu's eyes flickered and she nodded.
She got up and left, and the cotton doll fell on the sofa in the study, her lonely soul watching everything that happened.
Claude explained: "In order to successfully enter Luo's company, we have no choice but to do this."
Ning Ruochu smiled lightly, "Then just listen to him obediently."
He was actually persuaded to do these behind-the-scenes activities. It seems that the situation on the border of Lingchuan is very bad.
Yes, the old man of the Luo family has some means and has won over most of the members of the board of directors.
Luo Zhouheng's old subordinates do not trust Ning Ruchu, and they are shareholders of Luo's company and are responsible for the entire Luo's company, so their hearts will always lean towards the more powerful head of the Luo family.
The original intention of establishing Shadow Pavilion was to protect Luo Zhouheng, but later, due to the expansion of the organization, the function of assassination was derived.
Ling Chuan bypassed Yingge and employed outsiders. Was it because he could not interfere in the affairs of Yingge, or was there another hidden story?
"I don't know if you know this, but your secretary told us about your whereabouts this time." Claude pointed at Agent Jiang in the co-pilot seat, "I told him that my wife used to work in an administrative agency. A small lie can win us a chance to get closer to you."
Claude pointed out: "She has been assigned as your assistant."
"A little lie?" Ning Ruchu didn't believe it. He looked at the woman's face vaguely visible in the lower right corner of the rearview mirror and asked, "Is she transferred from the administrative agency?"
"That's right." Claude was a little melancholy. "Agent Ward doesn't have many opportunities to interact with you, and we found that Lingchuan is looking for a new driver for you. The number of times you meet will decrease in the future. We need to arrange someone else to be by your side."
He looked up, "Agent Jiang, please report your work to the young lady."
The person in the passenger seat turned around and said solemnly, "Miss, my name is Jiang Wanyu. From today on, I will be your assistant. I will help you get familiar with the company's affairs and complete some of the handover work."
"Part?" Ning Ruchu asked back.
Jiang Wanyu nodded, "Ling Chuan said that you only need to attend some important occasions, and you don't have to show up for other matters, let alone contribute."
Ning Ruochu sneered, "Yes, so that the Luo family's helmsman can be quickly replaced."
All power is monopolized by Ling Chuan alone. How can those old friends who are loyal to Mr. Luo tolerate this?
They communicated in Chinese, which the other two people in the car could not understand.
The voices stopped, and Claude spoke again, his expression slightly confused.
"It seems like you already know each other and had a good chat." Still in a joking tone.
Ning Ruchu turned her eyes to the side, her bright almond-shaped eyes were shrouded in mist, and it was impossible to tell the emotion in them.
"I guess this is my sign to leave," Claude said awkwardly.
Turn around, open the car door and get out.
Ning Ruochu turned around, stared at Jiang Wanyu who was motionless, and asked: "Ling Chuan asked you to stay with me."
"Yes, Ling Chuan arranged for me to live with you in Mingzhu Villa on the grounds of company affairs."
"There are quite a lot of guests these days." Ning Ruochu smiled mockingly.
Even after the owner died, the villa became more and more lively.
How ironic...
Ning Ruochu blinked, hiding her thoughts, raised her head, and said in a cold voice: "Drive."
……
The next day, Lingchuan came.
He said to Ning Ruochu apologetically: "I have been very busy these past two days and cannot personally hand over the company's work to you, Madam. Please forgive me."
Ning Ruchu showed an understanding smile, "Secretary Ling must be very busy to take care of such a large company. I don't dare to disturb her."
Hearing this, Ling Chuan frowned slightly.
He raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Wanyu who was standing next to Ning Ruchu.
"I think your new assistant has already introduced you to her. There is too much public opinion in the company, so it is better not to go there recently. She will stay with you in the future. If there is anything, I will let this assistant convey it to you."
Exposing Luo's internal secrets to outsiders like this?
Ning Ruochu didn't think Ling Chuan would be like this.
He must have other purposes in placing Jiang Wanyu next to her.
He was doubtful in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
She smiled and nodded, "Secretary Ling just needs to focus on managing the company. I have Secretary Jiang here, so there won't be any problems."
Ning Ruochu tilted her head and smiled brightly: "I believe you."
These words touched Ling Chuan's heart.
He shook his head and waved his hand to signal Jiang Wanyu to leave.
After hearing the door close, he spoke: "I heard that Commander Ye left suddenly and she rejected my call. I can only contact her from inside the Shadow Pavilion."
Ling Chuan's voice continued to report, "This matter has a great impact. Elder Jian personally negotiated with me and assured me that Ye Yue would be back within three days. Madam, please rest assured."
