Returning to the banquet hall, there were only a few minutes left before the celebration began, so Zhou Junnian naturally separated from them.
Xu Wan took a breath and said to Ruan Xingwan: "Thank you."
Ruan Xingwan took her hand and said, "What are you talking about? As long as you're fine."
Fortunately, when she followed Qin Yuhui, she saw a waiter passing by, and Ruan Xingwan asked him for the key.
Fortunately, I didn't go too late.
Xu Wan quietly glanced back and whispered: "Who is that next to Mr. Zhou?
Why do you look a bit like him?"
Ruan Xingwan said: "This matter is a bit complicated, I will tell you later."
Xu Wan nodded: "Okay."
At this time, Jiang Chuning came out of nowhere, squeezed in between them, and said in a lower voice: "What are you talking about?"
Ruan Xingwan smiled: "It's nothing, I'm just complimenting you."
"praise me?"
"If you hadn't run so fast and called Zhou Cishen and the others, we would have let that scumbag run away today."
Jiang Chuning was a little embarrassed by the praise, and blushed before saying: "Really...really?"
Xu Wan said: "Really, if you need anything in the future, please tell me as soon as possible."
At this time, the celebration officially began. As the host came on stage, Xu Wan also had to make preparations.
After she left, Ruan Xingwan looked at Zhou Cishen: "What did you just ask Lin Nan to do?"
Zhou Cishen raised his eyebrows slightly and spoke slowly: "Do you know why Qin Yuhui persisted in looking for Xu Wan even after being beaten so many times by Ruan Chen?"
Hearing this, Ruan Xingwan was a little confused: "Why?"
“The collapse of the resort construction site four years ago was the result of his single-handed action, and it has now been caught. Although he tried his best to suppress this matter, it will come to light sooner or later.
After the divorce, his ex-wife divided a large amount of property and left. What do you think he lacks most now?"
Ruan Xingwan was stunned: "Money?"
"That's right, so he has shown favor to Mr. Zhou many times during this period and wants to get Mr. Zhou's new project.
And Xu Wan is so popular right now, whether it’s commercial value, fame, or influence, he can use it all.”
Ruan Xingwan couldn't help but frown: "He's too disgusting."
"He approached Xu Wan several times without success, and did not even cause substantial harm to Xu Wan. Therefore, even if the police were called, he could easily escape unscathed."
Ruan Xingwan pursed her lips slightly. Although the reality is cruel, it is indeed the truth.
Qin Yuhui has some tricks up his sleeve. According to normal thinking, there is absolutely nothing we can do against him.
Jiang Chuning listened for a long time, confused, and raised his eyebrows: "Then what should we do now? Are we going to let that scumbag bully Sister Xu Wan?"
Zhou Cishen glanced sideways: "Aren't you going to find your second uncle?"
"Ah... I searched around and couldn't find it.
Don't interrupt, just tell me what to do."
Zhou Cishen raised his hand and turned her head away: "Children, don't worry about adults' affairs."
Jiang Chuning: "..."
Jiang Chuning couldn't help pouting, turned her head and subconsciously looked at the man next to her in an attempt to find resonance, but Jiang Shanghan just glanced at her lightly, his eyes showing no fluctuation.
I got the wrong guy.
After a while, Zhou Junnian appeared in everyone's sight and took the stage to deliver a speech.
A low-pitched discussion came from the side: "It's a pity that the eldest young master of the Zhou family is not inferior to Zhou Cishen in appearance and ability, but he has only just stepped out of the Zhou family now."
"Who says it's not the case? I always thought that Zhou Cishen was the only one in the Zhou family. I also wondered why Chairman Zhou gave the Zhou family to him while keeping him in check. It turned out that he was leaving a way out for himself."
"If it hadn't been for the car accident that year, which left Zhou Junnian half-paralyzed, how could the Zhou family have taken Zhou Cishen back?"
"Hey, you mentioned the car accident. I've heard some rumors in the past few days, saying that the car accident was actually done by people from Zhou Cishen's mother's family so that the Zhou family could take Zhou Cishen back."
Several people who heard this were collectively shocked: "Isn't it possible?
Where did you hear such gossip?"
"I don't know exactly where it came from, but it was said in a decent way."
"If it is true, then Zhou Junnian must hate Zhou Cishen to death. When I saw the two of them appearing together just now, it was quite normal."
"I also think it must be a lie. I haven't heard any news about Zhou Cishen's biological mother in so many years. She probably took the money and ran away long ago."
"Yes, how capable you are to tamper with Zhou Junnian's car.
If Zhou Cishen's biological mother had such ability, how could she be allowed to work as a mistress for others?"
"Fake, fake, such ridiculous rumors are spreading.
It is estimated that someone saw Zhou Junnian taking the position of CEO of the Zhou family and deliberately spread this kind of news to create trouble."
Several people agreed that this was just a matter of catching wind and shadow, so they stopped discussing it and talked about other topics.
Ruan Xingwan raised her head and looked at Zhou Cishen. The latter met her gaze and his expression did not change at all: "What's wrong?"
Ruan Xingwan held his hand: "It's okay."
Zhou Cishen looked at the time: "Let's go."
The charity dinner starts soon.
The celebration here will still continue.
Ruan Xingwan walked a few steps, turned around and saw Jiang Chu Ning Yan Baba following Jiang Shanghan step by step. He wanted to run over to find her, but he didn't dare.
Ruan Xingwan looked away and whispered: "Aren't you going to tell her the truth?
She still believes in Jiang Yunzhu so much, I'm afraid..."
Zhou Cishen said: "For us, Jiang Yunzhu is her real family, and she may not necessarily believe us.
Furthermore, she is simple-minded and will write everything on her face, so there is no benefit in telling her."
Ruan Xingwan understood a little bit: "Is that why Jiang Shanghan kept her by his side and didn't allow her to run around?"
"This has nothing to do with Jiang Yunzhu. Jiang Shanghan is here and he doesn't dare to act rashly."
"That……"
Zhou Cishen said: "I'm afraid she will cause trouble."
Ruan Xingwan raised the corners of his lips. Although he said this, it was obvious that they were all afraid that something would happen to Jiang Chuning.
The charity dinner was in another hall. When they passed by, Zhou Junnian was already waiting at the door.
Zhou Junnian said: "Cishen, Xingwan, the ring is the seventh item to be auctioned tonight. I have already said hello. I will only give you the price once, so you can just take it."
Zhou Cishen nodded.
At this time, Jiang Yun Zhuye came over from nowhere: "Since everyone is here, let's go in first."
Although there were many people attending the anniversary celebration, there were relatively few people attending the charity dinner.
The auction hall seemed much quieter.
Everyone who had arrived looked at the auction sheets in their hands.
Zhou Junnian said: "You guys sit down for a while and I'll go take a look at the back."
