Chapter 158 Why aren't the bride's family members considered guests?

“Rong Zhi, I know what you’re up to.” Bo Yuheng took two heavy breaths.

"Six years ago, you faked your death in a car accident so that one day you could take revenge on Bo Xingzhi. You not only wanted to seize the Bo family and the Bo Corporation, but you also wanted to possess his women... cough..."

A mixture of resentment and hatred spread, and bloodshed ensued.

Bo Yuheng coughed violently.

Rong Zhi remained calm and composed. "Second Uncle, is there anything else you wish to say?"

Bo Yuheng covered his forehead, his face ashen. "Rong Zhi, I'll go tell Sang Yuwan right now..."

Rong Zhi sneered, "Second Uncle, between you and me, who will she believe?"

Bo Yuheng gasped for breath, "She's no pushover."

Rong Zhi glanced at him coldly, his pupils dark and deep. "It's good that Second Uncle knows."

“You…” Bo Yuheng’s heart suddenly clenched with pain, his face turned ashen, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.

Rong Zhi pressed an internal phone button. "Assistant Ling, come in here."

Ling Zhou quickly pushed the door open and helped Bo Yuheng out.

Rong Zhi's pupils contracted slightly as he looked at the bloodstains on the carpet. He then ordered the men in black to remove the entire carpet.

Two people were absent from the morning shareholders' meeting.

One was Ning Wanzhen, and the other was Bo Yuheng.

All the resolutions were passed unanimously.

After the meeting ended, Sang Yuwan made a point of keeping Rong Zhi behind.

What's the story behind Bo Yuheng?

Rong Zhi sat to her left, turned his chair around to face her directly. His deep eyes flickered.

"He said some things he shouldn't have, so I taught him a lesson."

Upon hearing this, Sang Yuwan frowned. "Even so, you should be mindful of the occasion. This is the company, not the old house."

Rong Zhi replied calmly, "I'll be more careful next time."

Sang Yuwan's gaze darkened. After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly asked him, "Grandpa Rong's funeral is tomorrow. Aren't you planning to go back to see him off?"

A complex look flashed in Rong Zhi's eyes as he raised an eyebrow. "Why should I go back?"

A faint shadow of gloom appeared in Sang Yuwan's eyes. "He is your maternal grandfather."

"Heh." A mocking smile appeared on Rong Zhi's lips. "If you were me, would you go back?"

The temperature in the large office suddenly dropped.

Sang Yuwan's heart tightened, and she gripped the pen tightly. "But I'm not you."

Rong Zhi's expression calmed down again, and his tone became very gentle, "If you knew the inside story, you wouldn't have tried to persuade me to return to the Rong family."

Sang Yuwan was taken aback.

Buzz—

The cell phone on the conference table rang.

Sang Yuwan picked it up and saw that it was Ming Zhan.

She immediately stood up and pressed the answer button, "Second Brother..."

Rong Zhi watched her departing figure, his gaze gradually deepening.

The man in black entered, lowering his voice, "Second Master, there's been some progress on the matter you asked me to investigate..."

Rong Zhi's gaze sharpened, and he interrupted him, "Let's talk about it back in the office."

The man in black immediately shut up.

Rong Zhi uncrossed his legs, stood up, and strode towards the conference room door.

"Has Aunt Qiu's lunch been delivered yet?"

The man in black replied, "It seems not yet."

Rong Zhi's steps suddenly became heavier. "What's going on?"

The man in black followed behind him, bowing his head. "The second young master of the Ming family has arrived. I suppose Madam has arranged to have dinner with him."

Rong Zhi's expression froze, and his eyes suddenly turned icy.

Seeing this, the man in black dared not say another word.

After passing the water bar, Rong Zhi suddenly changed direction and headed directly towards Sang Yuwan's office.

The man in black was taken aback, hesitating whether to follow.

Xiansi walked over carrying a stack of documents.

The man in black thought for a moment. Rong Zhi's sudden decision to go find Sang Yuwan was probably because he was a little jealous. He curled his lips slightly and turned around quickly.

Xiansi didn't expect him to turn around suddenly, and before she could stop herself, the two bumped into each other.

The documents were scattered all over the floor.

"Excuse me, Assistant Ji." The man in black quickly knelt down to help pick up the documents.

Strings's eyes were filled with wariness, and she immediately stopped him, "Don't move, I'll do it myself."

The man in black froze in mid-air, his gaze slowly shifting away. "Did it hurt?"

Xiansi quickly gathered her documents, her tone hurried, "It's nothing."

Seeing that she was clearly wary of him, the man in black stood up. "If you need anything, look for me later. I'm leaving now."

Xiansi was busy picking up the documents and didn't look at him. "Okay."

The man in black quickly left.

The instant his gaze shifted away, he saw an investigation report about Rong Zhi's identity.

He couldn't help but feel sorry for Rong Zhi.

-

Rong Zhi had just reached the door of the chairman's secretary's office when he saw Ming Zhan and Sang Yuwan enter the office together.

His handsome brows furrowed, and the look in his eyes suddenly darkened. Unease, disappointment, and a touch of desolation lingered.

At this moment, only Minglang remained in the secretary's office; everyone else had gone down to eat.

"Second Master, is there something you need from Madam?" Minglang was taken aback when he saw him.

Rong Zhi didn't look at him, and casually asked, "What did Aunt Qiu do today?"

Minglang was taken aback again. "Madam has made an appointment to have lunch with someone today. So..."

A surge of emotion welled up within Rong Zhi, a heavy feeling washing over him. His expression remained calm. "She's just been discharged from the hospital; it's not suitable for her to eat out. Go to Qinghe Garden immediately and bring Madam's lunch."

Minglang was taken aback. "Shall I go ask Madam?"

In the interplay of light and shadow, Rong Zhi's face was half in light and half in shadow, his eyes dark and inscrutable, making him even more enigmatic.

"You have to ask her about such trivial matters? Do you think she doesn't have enough work?"

The voice was icy cold, as if it had been chilled to the bone.

Minglang couldn't help but shiver.

Rong Zhi glanced at him disdainfully, then strode towards the door of Sang Yuwan's office.

Minglang bit her lip, her expression turning somewhat unpleasant.

Ming Zhan was the one who called him over.

He hoped that Mingzhan could persuade Sang Yuwan to reduce her workload and shorten her working hours as much as possible.

After all, she is pregnant now, and there can't be the slightest accident.

Rong Zhi's reaction clearly shows that he is very bothered by Sang Yuwan and Ming Zhan being together.

His thoughts are not only clear to himself and Xiansi, but also to those around him.

Thinking of this, Minglang felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on his heart, making it hard to breathe.

He hesitated whether to go to Qinghe Garden, but Rong Zhi had already pushed open the door and walked in.

Sang Yuwan was talking to Ming Zhan when she heard the noise, and the two of them looked up at the same time.

"Madam, is there a guest?"

Rong Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly, his tone calm.

Sitting opposite Sang Yuwan, Ming Zhan felt an aggressive aura. Without waiting for Sang Yuwan's response, he stood up and politely greeted Rong Zhi.

"Second Master, we meet again."

He paused for a moment, then said something else.

"As far as Wan'er is concerned, I am not a guest."

Those who know, know.

Rong Zhi's gaze darkened slightly, a half-smile playing on his lips. "Now that Madam is a member of the Bo family, why aren't her family members considered guests?"
