They arrived at Silverlake Condominium, and Du Gang stopped in front the building.
Ruan Zeyan got out of the car and personally opened the door for Ling Tianya. As she stepped out, she was pulled into his embrace. Right outside the car, he said to her, “Remember, from this moment on, don’t go to clubs, don’t accept drinks from men, and don’t have any physical contact with men except me. There’ll be serious consequences otherwise.”
Ling Tianya felt like a teenage girl being lectured by her parents, “Don’t do this, don’t do that.” But she was a grown woman, plus there were a lot of things she couldn’t control.
“Your demands are unreasonable. I have social events...”
His hand on her back tightened as if he wanted to absorb her. He said threateningly, “Ling Tianya, I’m not asking.”
Ling Tianya looked up and saw the starry eyes of the man. She thought about Ling Tianxin, who was still hidden by Ruan Zeyan. He said as long as she did what she was told, she would be able to see her sister.
“I heard you.”
Seeing that the woman conceded, Ruan Zeyan let her go with satisfaction, “Aren’t you inviting me up for a drink?”
“Up for a drink” was something very suggestive in adult conversations. Ruan Zeyan’s eyes were full of desire, desire for Ling Tianya.
Ling Tianya was anxious because she was a little scared about having relations with Ruan Zeyan. After all, her experience on Huxin Island was less than desirable. The first time was always going to be special and memorable for a woman. Ling Tianya’s first time was filled with pain and verbal abuse from Ruan Zeyan. There was no excitement or pleasure for her, so she resisted the idea of sex.
Sensing her hesitation, Ruan Zeyan sighed in disappointment. He knew that that was his own doing and it would take more than a couple of days to make up. He kissed her forehead and said, “Go home.”
Ling Tianya turned around and walked inside. Ruan Zeyan leaned on the car, eyes following the direction of her apartment. He only got in the car when he saw a light turned on inside.
“Boss, I don’t understand why you didn’t just tell Miss Ling the truth. Ling Tianxin is extremely unstable right now, delusional and prone to violence. She must be under close surveillance and is not suitable for visitation. If you tell this to Miss Ling, she’ll only thank you. Anything is better than her misunderstanding you,” Du Gang said.
“Just drive.” Ruan Zeyan’s voice was back to being cold and clear.
Du Gang shut up and started the car. When he looked into the rear-view mirror, Ruan Zeyan’s eyes were closed and it looked like he had fallen asleep. Then his deep voice said, “Watch the Guans closely, they won’t give up easily.”
“Okay. Oh, boss, you asked me to investigate that post about Miss Ling online. I found out that someone else was looking into it as well.” Not waiting for Ruan Zeyan to ask, Du Gang continued, “It was Miss Ling.”
Ling Tianya’s cute and stubborn face emerged in Ruan Zeyan’s mind and he smiled, “Don’t intervene yet. Let’s see what she wants to do.” Ruan Zeyan found his little fiancée more and more endearing, bringing him one surprise after another.
In front the computer, Ling Tianya was browsing Weibo and other major forums. In only two days, the news had taken over all the headlines including Weibo Search. Some people even dug up some old dirt about Ling Tianya. Being engaged to Ruan Zeyan of the Yuan Teng Corporation after only being back in the country for a few months had further solidified the accusation of her relying on looks to gain power. Fans of Guan Meiyi were calling Ling Tianya names in the forums and on Weibo. With the help of social media, Ling Tianya had successfully become a public enemy on the Internet.
This had made a direct impact on the production of the TV show. People online had expressed their anger and said they would boycott the show when it would be aired. Under such pressure, the crew announced a press conference.
