Chapter 321: 310 Slapping Su Ruan in the Face in Front of Everyone [2 Updates]
Old Madam Ying did not consider it in the slightest.
She truly did not have any fondness for Ying Zijin.
Not only was she unable to help the Ying Family break into the capital, she lacked Ying Yuexuan’s connections and only added to the chaos—what good was she?
Upon learning that Ying Zijin had left the Ying Family, Old Madam Ying was overjoyed and wanted to celebrate jubilantly.
However, her health was not particularly good, so she planned to host a banquet for the wealthy families of Shanghai City and some guests from the capital on March 24 of the following year, during Ying Yuexuan’s coming-of-age ceremony, and to celebrate in a grand manner.
...
“Distinguished guests?” Ying Yuexuan was perplexed, “What distinguished guests?”
“They will arrive tomorrow.” Old Madam Ying patted her hand, smiling kindly, “Wanwan, now that your aunt is gone, Grandma will pave the way for you.”
“Grandma knows you’ve also made the acquaintance of many nobles over in O continent, but it’s always better at home. In the future, whether our Ying Family can break into the capital or not, we can’t do without your help.”
Ying Yuexuan knew that Old Madam Ying had actually married into the family from the capital.
Old Madam Ying’s maternal family was a mid-sized clan in the capital, somewhat larger than the Su Family’s scale, but definitely stronger than the Ying Family in overall strength.
However, they were at quite a distance from the top-tier circle of the Mu and Nie families.
Old Madam Ying, who was proud and high-spirited, preferred to be a leading figure rather than a follower, which is why she chose to marry into Shanghai City.
Among the Four major noble families, only the Fu Family was acquainted with top-tier major clans like the Mu family; the rest had no connections at all.
Both the Ying and Zhong families were eager to break into that top-tier circle in the capital.
“Grandma, I can’t do it,” Ying Yuexuan said, pursing her lips, “We have to rely on big brother.”
Speaking of Ying Tianlv, Old Madam Ying was also very satisfied: “Indeed, Tianlv is very capable, even stronger than your grandfather. But you are different. Your brother is in business, and you are in scientific research.”
As she spoke, her body suddenly swayed.
Ying Yuexuan’s expression changed, and she hurried to support her: “Grandma.”
“Grandma is fine.” Old Madam Ying waved her hand, “Just a headache, an old problem.”
She stood up with the aid of a cane: “Grandma will go and rest first. Have your mother take you to pick a gown, and make a good impression on the distinguished guests tomorrow.”
She wondered when her illness would be cured.
Old Madam Ying sighed and went upstairs.

After Fu Yunshen had purged the Fu Family, it fell into chaos for a while.
Of Fu Mingcheng’s lineage, only Fu Yihan was left.
Since taking over Fu Corporation, Fu Yihan had been busy with company matters and hadn’t had the time to deal with Su Ruan.
Ever since being thrown out of the Venus headquarters building, Su Ruan had locked herself in her room, almost crying her face off.
Su Lianghui was incredibly anxious when she did not respond all this time.
Finally unable to hold back, he went to the Fu Family.
“I told you to go find Fu Yunshen; why haven’t you?” Su Lianghui saw Su Ruan and couldn’t help getting angry, “Don’t you know your Second Uncle and Fourth Uncle have already started their moves against us?”
The other members of the Su Family had always been wary because he and Fu Mingcheng were relatives by marriage and had the support of the Fu Family.
But now things were different; since Fu Mingcheng had fallen, the others naturally lost no time in trying to bring Su Lianghui down, too.
“I did go!” Su Ruan’s voice was hysterical, “Don’t you know I was thrown out? They’re all laughing at me, do you understand?”
Upon hearing this, Su Lianghui frowned.
He had not expected Fu Yunshen to take such ruthless actions, not sparing Su Ruan any face.
It had been so long since the broken engagement; surely the grudge wouldn’t last until now?
“Then don’t go to the company to find him.” Su Lianghui said, “You have to find a way to see him in person first. Otherwise, we’re really done for.”
Su Ruan gradually calmed down and began to think about how to meet Fu Yunshen.
Su Lianghui remembered what Fu Mingcheng once said, that leveraging online public opinion could maximize benefits. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
He pondered deeply for a long time, finally making up his mind.
With nothing left to lose, he might as well make a desperate effort. There was a chance of turning the situation around.
It couldn’t be worse than the current outcome.
Su Lianghui no longer paid attention to Su Ruan and left in a hurry.
He had more important things to do; depending solely on Su Ruan was useless.

The next day.
Verdant Middle School.
Class 19.
Ying Zijin leaned against the window, her phoenix eyes half-closed as she took a nap.
“Daddy Ying.”
Someone called out to her.
She turned her head.
It was Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran grumbled for a while before reluctantly raising his head from the desk, “My mom wants to see you, are you free?”
He had thought his mother had a change of heart, actually willing to drag him out of the blacklist.
It turned out that he was just a tool.
