Chapter 231 Banquet Invitation

Upon hearing this, Su Zhu raised an eyebrow, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes.

You actually agreed to that?

"You have to do everything you can to help me hide my tracks, just as you said." Su Anran was a little unsure, but she had no other choice at this point. "I'll tell you who that person is once we leave Haicheng."

Jiang Ruan: "Okay."

Su Anran just wants to leave: "I'll leave no later than the 2nd of next month. When are you going to give me the money?"

Jiang Ruan: "What money?"

Su Anran: "They mentioned fifty million in the car."

Jiang Ruan: "Didn't you say you didn't want it?"

Su Anran took a deep breath, wishing she could go back in time and slap herself.

He was completely out of his mind to get Jiang Ruan to agree.

"Then have your people prepare." Su Anran didn't say anything more. "I'll tell you on the day I leave."

Jiang Ruan replied calmly, "I understand."

Su Anran became suspicious: "Jiang Ruan."

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Su Anran couldn't see Jiang Ruan's expression through the phone, but just to be on the safe side, she added, "When I say do your best, I don't mean just doing it by yourself, but using all the resources you can, including but not limited to Su Zhu, Ye Yanzhi, and your mother."

Jiang Ruan didn't reply and hung up the phone directly.

A beeping sound came through.

Su Anran suppressed her emotions once again.

If she had known things would turn out this way, she should have gone to see Dr. Yin earlier to resolve the matter. If it weren't for this unexpected turn of events, she could have stayed by Huo Zhizhou's side for the rest of her life.

It can both disgust Jiang Ruan and grant him a lifetime of wealth, honor, and protection from powerful figures.

Unfortunately, there's no going back, and she had no chance to rearrange things.

Jiang Ruan was unaware that she was still thinking about those things. After hanging up the phone, she continued eating without being affected.

Su Zhu said, "I don't know whether to say Su Anran is smart or not."

Jiang Ruan thought for a moment: "It is indeed quite difficult to determine."

"She asked you for help, what is she thinking?" Su Zhu remembered the incident clearly. "She treated you like that in college, I really don't know where she got the nerve."

"If she had any self-respect, she wouldn't have impersonated someone else." Jiang Ruan felt that Huo Zhizhou's real savior was quite unlucky.

This incident did not have much impact on Jiang Ruan.

Eat and drink as usual, just like always.

When Jiang An and Sui Sui returned, Jiang Ruan was in the study with Su Zhu, studying the information of everyone in the Qin family. Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory. Her mother said that the shares were not easy to obtain, so she naturally had to put in more effort.

"What are you looking at?" Jiang An walked into the study.

Jiang Ruan: "Mom."

Su Zhu: "Aunt Jiang."

"Take these." Jiang An took out two invitations from his bag and handed them over. "There's a business banquet on the evening of the 30th, and most of Haicheng's powerful and influential people will be attending."

Jiang Ruan took it and looked at it; her name was on it.

Su Zhu was somewhat surprised: "How come I have one too?"

Jiang An explained, "Your mother asked me to give this to you."

Jiang Ruan asked, "And yours?"

Jiang An: "I'm not going."

Ruan Ruan only needs to attend those places; she doesn't want to pretend to be friendly with those people. Besides, the purpose of this banquet isn't for Ruan Ruan to make friends or meet seniors.

"Don't worry! I will definitely take good care of Ruan Ruan." Su Zhu was extremely familiar with this kind of scene. Since she was a child, her parents had been raising her to be the heir to their two companies, so she was very good at interpersonal communication.

As for ginger.

Jiang An has always hoped that she would just be herself, which is why she remains so pure now.

In other words, apart from Su Anran, she has hardly seen the dark side of society and still retains the purest childlike heart.

"You can go and have fun," Jiang An instructed, explaining that this dinner was just a transitional measure for Ruan Ruan, "and everything else will take its course."

Jiang Ruan glanced at the invitation and a guess formed in her mind: "Mom."

Jiang An: "Hmm?"

Jiang Ruan asked, "Did you ask me to go to this banquet in preparation for getting the shares back later?"

"How so?" A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang An's eyes.

“Normally, you would take me to meet your friends and introduce me to them, or you would personally take me to a banquet to introduce me to them.” Jiang Ruan rubbed the invitation in her hand.

"Yes." Jiang An nodded; that was indeed the original plan.

"Is the reason you suddenly want me to go with Su Zhu alone because of the birthday gifts from Grandpa Qin and Chairman Li yesterday?" Jiang Ruan asked tentatively.

“Yes.” Jiang An glanced at the two of them and said directly, “The main purpose of this banquet is for you to make your connections.”

Su Zhu glanced at Jiang Ruan.

Jiang An explained the seriousness of the matter to Jiang Ruan: "Given the nature of the Qin family, they definitely won't let you get the shares easily. If pushed too far, they might even create an accident before you get the shares."

What happened to her must not happen to her child again.

“So this banquet is crucial,” Jiang An continued. “You must have enough buzz and discussion to keep people curious about you for a long time, that’s how you stay safe.”

Only in this way.

The Qin family members would think things through carefully before taking action.

After all, if anything were to happen to Ruan Ruan, the first families and powerful clans in Haicheng would suspect them.

As one of the four great families, the Qin family naturally cares about its reputation.

"How do we generate discussion and maintain their curiosity?" Su Zhu asked.

Jiang Ruan was also curious.

She is just an ordinary person now.

“No need to cause a stir, she’s already the subject of discussion among all the prominent families in Haicheng.” Jiang An replied to Su Zhu, her eyes full of tenderness as she looked at Jiang Ruan. “Those two were very high-profile when they gave her the gifts.”

"Old Master Qin and Chairman Li?" Jiang Ruan asked.

Jiang An hummed in agreement.

A knowing glint flashed in Su Zhu's eyes.

Jiang An was initially worried that Jiang Ruan wouldn't be able to adapt to entering this circle, but now it seems that she knows everything and has a clear understanding of everything.

“If anyone at the banquet asks you what your relationship is with them, just say you’re my daughter,” Jiang An instructed her. “Don’t say anything else.”

Only in this way will the level of discussion rise to a new level after the banquet.

"Qin'an" returns.

The daughter of "Qin An".

The person who receives special attention from Chairman Li and Old Master Qin.

These topics are enough to keep them curious for a long time.

The Qin family quickly learned about this.

The Qin family.

Inside the villa, Qin Muchuan, dressed in a suit, stared at the banquet menu in his hand with a gloomy expression. His face, which was over fifty years old, was full of anger: "What are these people doing? Why did they put Jiang Ruan in?"

"This name was added by Qin An himself," the current butler of the Qin family replied.

Qin Muchuan's eyes were dark and deep.

Qin'an.

You really are a persistent ghost.

The butler asked, "Should we tell the eldest and second young masters about this?"

"No need." Qin Muchuan stared intently at Jiang Ruan's name, as if he wanted to bore a hole through her. "Cancel the previous arrangements, and don't lay a hand on Qin An and her daughter during this period."

Butler: "Okay."

Qin Muchuan squeezed the nameplate with increasing force.

My dear sister, did you think you could protect yourselves by manipulating public opinion? Don't forget that I'm not the only one who wants to get rid of you.
