Chapter 28: The Gu Family Surprisingly Went This Far
If he was Gu Zhaoming, he would definitely not make a big fuss over an adopted daughter.
However, Second Uncle Ruan's words angered Gu Zhaoming. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes. "Ruan Zhixiong, even if Yangyang isn't our biological daughter, she's as good as one! I agree with Xueling. If Ruan Yan doesn't publicly apologize, this matter won't end!"
Ruan Zhixiong was shocked by the ruthlessness in Gu Zhaoming's eyes.
Seeing that Ruan Zhixiong was silent, Ruan Yan panicked. She tugged at the corner of Xu Yun's shirt and whispered, "Mom, help me. I can't apologize publicly. My career in the entertainment industry will be ruined…"
Xu Yun was also filled with anxiety. Yan'er's career in the entertainment industry had just started to improve. If this matter was exposed, she would definitely end up with a bad reputation.
Gu Zhaoming and Ruan Xueling's attitudes were firm, so Xu Yun could only turn to look at Gu Yang. "Yangyang, we're all family. There's no need to make things so ugly, right? Your cousin is a celebrity. If this matter spreads online, she'll be ruined. You've always been sensible and kind…"
Gu Yang didn't need to say anything. Ruan Xueling stood in front of her. "Yangyang is indeed sensible and kind. Why does this have to go online, huh? Doesn't Ruan Yan know best?"
Ruan Yan was shocked by Ruan Xueling's sharp gaze. She bit her lip and pretended to be stupid. "I, Aunt, I don't understand…"
Ruan Xueling sneered. "Who spread the news about Yangyang online? Don't force me to take out evidence and throw it in your face."
Ruan Yan's heart skipped a beat. Gu Jin would benefit the most from this matter, so she thought the Gu family would definitely think that Gu Jin was the one who made this go online. She didn't expect the Gu family to suspect her!
She did not doubt that Ruan Xueling could find evidence. After all, with the Gu family's strength, they could still find out if they really wanted to.
She was jealous. She didn't expect the Gu family to do this for her even though Gu Yang wasn't her biological daughter!
At this moment, an old and dignified voice came from the stairs. "Let's do as Zhaoming says. Since this is Ruan Yan's fault, let her bear the consequences."
Everyone stood up and looked over to see Ruan Chu helping Old Master Ruan down the stairs.
Even though Old Master Ruan had been in the study the whole time, the incident in the living room could not be hidden from him.
"Dad, why did you come down?" Ruan Zhixiong looked at Old Master Ruan carefully, afraid that he would take back his controlling power to the cosmetics company under the Ruan Corporation.
"Father-in-Law." Gu Zhaoming also stood to greet him.
Old Master Ruan sat on the sofa and took a sip of tea. Ignoring the two of them, he looked at Gu Jin, who was lazily leaning on the sofa and revealed a loving smile. "This must be Little Jin, right? I'm your maternal grandfather."
Gu Jin looked up at Old Master Ruan and nodded.
Seeing that Gu Jin didn't call him grandfather, Old Master Ruan was a little disappointed. He looked at Ruan Xueling and Gu Zhaoming and said resentfully, "If Ruan Yan hadn't spread this matter online, would you still have announced Little Jin's identity? Little Jin has suffered so much outside, but you don't know how to compensate her. You even treat your adopted daughter better than your biological daughter."
