My Groom Ran Away

My Groom Ran Away Chapter 7.4

Then he looked at Lin Cheng and his words returned to his usual sloppy tone, “Lin Heng will only take part in the early development and investment. The rest of the work will be left to the discretion of the Ruan Company."

Everyone was surprised the moment they heard his words.

If Cheng Yuelin said this, then it meant that he would only receive the benefits from his monetary investment. Even though the Ruan Company would have to provide all the manpower, it would solve the problem of not having enough funds.

He was definitely not losing out, but the problem was, why would he be so kindhearted to share so much money with the Ruan Company?

Ruan Zhiyin saw her grandfather was pleased, and Lin Cheng’s eyes were filled with suspicion. She cleared her throat and calmly nodded her head.

“That’s right.”

It did not matter what other conditions Cheng Yuelin had, but if he was going to gift her such a good opportunity, would she refuse?

Of course -- She would not.

Lan Qiao City. Airport Lounge.

With a roar, the flight slowly landed. At the domestic arrival area, Zhai Xu waited at the front area, holding a package of documents.

The always expressionless Special Assistant Zhai could not help but reveal a slightly uneasy expression.

When the two familiar figures appeared, Zhai Xu quickly walked forward and received the luggage from his boss's hands.

Lan Qiao was not as cold as Bei Yao. Qin Jue only wore a light green shirt. His suit jacket was draped over his arm.

His distinct and handsome face appeared indifferent, and he walked out of the airport lounge with long strides. He and Jiang Anzheng sat in the black Maybach parked not far from the exit.

When the flight took off, the weather was not considered very good. Their flight had also encountered some turbulence along the way.

Zhai Xu breathed a sigh of relief and he opened the briefcase and passed over a few of the documents from the top. He carefully examined his boss’ demeanor.

These documents had already been sent electronically the day before. Qin Jue simply looked over them a few times before quickly finished signing them.

He passed them back to Zhai Xu, paused for a moment, and asked, “Did she contact you?"

It was clear who ‘she’ referred to.

Zhai Xu’s face froze, and he carefully considered before saying, “Miss Ruan did not take the initiative to contact me."

Ruan Zhiyin did not contact him, but he had taken the initiative to contact Ruan Zhiyin.

When Mother Qin, Fang Weilan, heard what Ruan Zhiyin had done yesterday, she immediately contacted him in the morning to tell Miss Ruan to see her. But when he dialed her number, her words were cold—

“There is nothing between Qin Jue and me now. Maybe Mrs. Qin should contact Lin Jingfei."

He did not dare to pass these words along. He pulled himself out of his thoughts, and Zhai Xu saw his boss frowning.

Jiang Anzheng looked at Zhai Xu hesitating. He raised his chin slightly and laughed. “What is it? Could it really be that woman, Ruan Zhiyin, is making a fuss about canceling the wedding?”

He felt that his friend’s words were quite harsh, and Qin Jue looked over in dissatisfaction. But before he spoke, he heard the assistant stiffly say—

“She did not.”

Qin Jue breathed a sigh of relief.

He had not been able to get through to Ruan Zhiyin’s cellphone and he was worried that something had happened to her. He could only call Gu Linlang, but her attitude towards him was very poor. She said that Ruan Zhiyin was doing well and then she hung up the phone.

He was the one who made a mistake in the first place. Although there was a reason for it, she should not have made a fuss about breaking up and canceling the marriage. He definitely needed to properly apologize to her.

When Jiang Anzheng heard this, his eyes were filled with ridicule. He could not help but silently say, ‘As expected.’

No matter how much Ruan Zhiyin had put on airs and told Qin Jue to cancel the marriage, in the end she would still swallow it down bitterly and take her words back.

Whether she could still get married to Qin Jue, Jiang Anzheng did not know. But one thing he definitely knew was that the topic of the groom running away from his wedding would definitely not end.

Zhai Xu saw the two people’s expressions and knew that they had misunderstood. He gritted his teeth and said, “Miss Ruan did not cancel the wedding, but...”

Qin Jue could not help but frown when he saw his hesitation to speak. “But what?”

Zhai Xu took a deep breath to encourage himself and with the idea that long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, he blurted out a long string of words—

“Yesterday’s wedding was not canceled, but Miss Ruan changed the groom on the spot! Most of the guests had left, but the ceremony was completely conducted. At the end of the wedding, Miss Ruan sat on the groom’s Bentley and left without turning back.”

He had rushed there, but she had completely ignored him.

After his words fell, Zhai Xu saw his normally gentle boss, who was squeezing the frames of his glasses, suddenly froze.

A few seconds later, his pale hands squeezed into a tight fist and his knuckles could be clearly seen. His jaw was tight and his cheeks slightly moved. His dark and deep black eyes seemed to be filled with a violent storm.

He stared at Zhai Xu. It was a hot day, but his voice was as cold as icicles. "What did you say?"
