Sweet Love 1V1: Spoiled by The Executive

Hearing the woman’s voice come through the line, Ling Tianya’s first reaction was to assume that it was Ruan Zeyan’s head secretary Christine, but it didn’t seem like her voice either. Christine’s voice was like a cloud made out of iron, gentle and yet hardened by life. It was definitely not this sickly-sweet cotton candy voice.

“Who are you?” Ling Tianya questioned.

The next few moments were just a mess of sounds, as though someone was snatching the phone from the woman. She shouted out of displeasure, before Du Gang’s voice came through.

“Miss… Miss Ling.” Du Gang’s voice was trembling as though he was worried that Ling Tianya would be angry. He quickly continued, “Boss is in his meetings, his phone is not with him.”

Even though the call was picked up by a woman, his boss was not with the woman. “Miss Ling, please don’t think too much of the situation.”, Du Gang thought.

“He’s in his meeting? For the whole day?” Ling Tianya prodded. “Does he not want to live anymore?”

Just how much did he not care about his own body? The doctor clearly instructed him to rest, but the moment he was discharged he went to have a whole day of meetings!

It wasn’t hard to hear that Ling Tianya was angry over the phone, but he was not too sure whether Ling Tianya was angry over the fact that his boss had a full day of meetings, or that the woman had picked up his boss’ phone.

Du Gang had prepared a whole arsenal of explanations, but it seemed like they were all unneeded. Miss Ling didn’t even give it too much thought.

Miss Ling, what a mystical woman…

“The few days that Boss had been hospitalized, some things happened in the corporation. They all require the boss’s own intervention, so he’s a bit busier.”

For so many years, Ruan Zeyan had always governed over the corporation with an iron fist, securing his position as the CEO of the company. He had kept the decision making power in the hands of Ruan Qishan’s side of the family. Because of that, Ruan Zeyan had become the most powerful, feared, and the person that many people wanted to dispose of in order to prevent future worries.

The assassination attempt could have very well been from the members of the Ruan family.

Even though nothing fatal had happened to Ruan Zeyan, there are some people that had taken action and had become restless during his absence. Ruan Qishan had washed his hands off the happenings of the company, so there were many things he was unable to accomplish, no matter how much he wanted to.

The moment Ruan Zeyan was discharged, he went to settling the source of the unrest in the corporation.

Even though Du Gang didn’t state it outright, Ling Tianya knew that the bigger the family, the bigger the conflicts and scheming. Being an assassination target was not the scariest thing, being assassinated by your own family members was.

Ruan Zeyan’s methods had become more and more cruel over the years, and it was most likely a product of being in such a dangerous and uncaring family.

Ending the call, Ling Tianya wanted to go to the condo directly, but had instead changed the direction that the car was going, heading towards the biggest landmark in the entire city — Yuan Teng Tower.

The Yuan Teng Tower had strict security. Knowing that Ruan Zeyan was in a meeting, she called Du Gang instead.

Knowing that Ling Tianya had already reached their office lobby, he was definitely surprised, wondering whether Miss Ling had come to do a spot check on his boss because she was uneasy about the fact that a woman had picked up the call earlier.

When Du Gang had rushed to the lobby in a flurry, he was even more taken aback by the fact that Ling Tianya stood there with her hands full of food.

Du Gang immediately rushed to Ling Tianya’s side, taking some of the bags from her. He brought her to Ruan Zeyan’s personal elevator, straight to his office on the top floor.

“Miss Ling, the boss is still in a meeting with some of the shareholders in his office.” Before entering the room, Du Gang reminded Ling Tianya about the presence of the other people in the room kindly.

The moment Ling Tianya entered the room, she saw Ruan Zeyan seated in the biggest chair in the middle of the room. He was surrounded by a bunch of middle-aged men. He was looking tired in the middle of the huge office.
