Chapter 981 He Isn"t Married

Even though Tang Zhiyu disguised her feelings, Gu Ning was still able to notice her reaction.

Gu Ning was displeased when other girls showed strong interest in her man, but Tang Zhiyu hadn't done anything harmful yet, so she wouldn't do anything to hurt her right now.

Although Tang Zhiyu's mother supported her to play dirty tricks, it was unlikely that she could win.

Nevertheless, no matter how impossible it was, Tang Zhiyu still made up her mind to try.

Jiang Yutong and her mother also noticed Leng Shaoting. Jiang Yutong was attracted to him too, but she was only appreciating his outstanding appearance, because her love was Tang Jiayang. Her love towards Tang Jiayang wasn't morally acceptable, but it was pure.

"The man is so handsome! He must be a rich heir. Yutong, do something to get him," Jiang Yutong's mother said.

"Mom, he already has a girlfriend," Jiang Yutong said, but it was a lie. If she really liked a man, she wouldn't care whether he already had a girlfriend or not.

Just like how she had admired Tang Jiayang for a long time, but didn't stop chasing him even though she found out that he already had a girlfriend.

She did everything she could to get his attention whenever she saw Tang Jiayang, but he ignored her all the time. If she found out who Tang Jiayang's girlfriend was she would do her best to force the girl to leave him.

…

"So what? He isn't married, so you still have the chance to steal his heart!" Jiang Yutong's mother said and took it for granted.

Jiang Yutong remained silent. She clearly knew that her mother would force her to do it as long as it was her mother's decision.

Just like her love towards Tang Jiayang, her mother also warned her to stay away from him, but this was the only time she disobeyed her mother's order. It wasn't up to her to tell her to leave someone she really loved.

…

Once Gu Ning showed up, businessmen who knew her all came to greet her, and most of them had already met each other at the release conference of Jade Beauty Jewelry before.

Pan Zirui and his friends also walked out when they heard that Gu Ning had appeared, but she was surrounded by so many people now, so they stood far away.

At this moment, Du Yujian approached them again. "I just met Lord Tang, and I coincidentally told him that someone slipped into the party without an invitation letter. Lord Tang just gave an order to find him."

It sounded like Du Yujian was talking to himself, but he aimed to let Gao Yongkang hear it.

Pan Zirui and his friends rolled their eyes at Du Yujian, but didn't bother to argue against him.

Even if the Tang family was going to chase them away, they could say that it was Gu Ning who invited them. Since Gu Ning was already here now, they were safe.

Unfortunately, before Gao Yongkang's conflict with Du Yujian was settled, Zhou Guangrui ended up in trouble.

"Hey, isn't this Zhou Guangrui? Didn't your older brother say that your family wasn't invited? How did you get in here?" Three rich men walked to them, and the man who said that was Zhou Guangming's friend. Zhou Guangming had turned to him for help too.

Du Yujian interrupted at once. "Hi, Lord Cen, they aren't invited, but got in here with Lord Pan and Lord Hu. A guest is only allowed to bring one person to join this party, but the two of them brought three. I already told Lord Tang, and he said that he would handle it."

"Oh, they followed others to get in here? That's not good," Lord Cen said with obvious disdain.

Lord Cen's full name was Cen Xiangfei, the son of the eldest son of the Cen family, which was another super-rich family in City B.

Cen Yanheng, who had set Tang Xiaoxiao up, was Cen Xiangfei's second uncle.

"Well, well," Zhou Guangrui said and laughed a little. "Why are you so sure that we slipped in here? Didn't you notice that we weren't afraid at all when you told us that Lord Tang was going to chase unwanted guests away?"

Hearing that, Du Yujian was struck dumb for a second.

Zhou Guangrui looked so confident that he couldn't help but doubt whether he was wrong.

"Tell us, who invited you here?" Cen Xiangfei asked.

"I don't think it has anything to do with you Lord Cen," Zhou Guangrui said.

"Bulls**t!" Du Yujian said. He couldn't believe that all of them were invited here.

Zhou Guangrui and the others didn't give them a clear answer, so Du Yujian thought that they didn't dare to, but Cen Xiangfei wasn't as stupid as him. He believed Zhou Guangrui's words. Today's wedding was held by the Tang family after all, and nobody dared to slip inside.

Since they were unwilling to tell them, he wouldn't ask further.

Right at this moment, Tang Jiakai walked towards them, and Du Yujian couldn't wait to see a drama. He believed that Tang Jiakai came here to chase unwanted people away.

Cen Xiangfei, on the other hand, was surprised. He thought that it could be Tang Jiakai who invited them here.

Although it would be very surprising because there was a huge gap between Tang Jiakai and them, it could happen, and Cen Xiangfei got jealous at once. They all wanted to form a close relationship with people of power and wealth, which would benefit themselves and their families.

"Hi, Lord Tang!"

When Tang Jiakai walked near, they all greeted him with respect.

"Hi, everyone," Tang Jiakai said, then turned to face Pan Zirui and his friends. "Hey, Ningning is busy right now, so she asked me to welcome you all for a while. Come on, let's go to meet some friends together."

Chapter 982 The Wedding Begins

Since they were invited here by Gu Ning, Tang Jiakai was very kind to them, and was willing to take them to meet his friends.

However, Du Yujian and the others were shocked.

What? Tang Jiakai is going to take Pan Zirui and the others to meet his friends?

"Thank you so much, Lord Tang," Pan Zirui and his friends said. Then they walked away with Tang Jiakai, but they gave Du Yujian a glance of challenge before they left.

Du Yujian still couldn't believe it. "How is it possible?"

He couldn't accept the fact that Pan Zirui and his friends were able to make friends with Tang Jiakai. At the same time, he was jealous of them. Tang Jiakai's friends had to be people of high social status too. It would be best if they could get to know them. In addition, Pan Zirui seemed to be close to Tang Jiakai.

"Who is Ningning?" Cen Xiangfei asked with a frown.

It was obvious that Pan Zirui and his friends were invited here by Ningning, and that Tang Jiakai came to them in person because Ningning was occupied now.

Ningning couldn't be simple if she was able to ask Tang Jiakai to help her.

"I think she should be Tang Jiakai's friend," someone said.

They didn't know that Ningning was Gu Ning.

Without delay, Cen Xiangfei called Zhou Guangming, then found out that Ningning was Gu Ning who was the famous, talented young girl. The girl was also Pan Zirui's boss.

He had also heard a lot about Gu Ning, especially the conflict between her and his second uncle. His second uncle had been in trouble precisely because of Gu Ning.

Although Cen Xiangfei admired Gu Ning's outstanding ability, he still disliked her because she had embarrassed his family. Nevertheless, he wouldn't mess with her either.

Zhou Guangming, however, was more displeased after finding out what had happened to Zhou Guangrui from Cen Xiangfei, but he could do nothing about it.

…

While Tang Jiakai brought Pan Zirui and the others to meet his friends where they chatted together, and got along well. Cao Wenxin brought Xin Bei to talk with her friends. Although it seemed to be a pleasant conversation, Gao Chengyun and Jiang Zezheng felt sad.

Both of them had admired Cao Wenxin from afar before, so it was painful for them to see her being so happy with another man.

Mrs. Hao and her friends gathered with Gu Qing and the others. And in case they felt uneasy, Tang Yunrong stayed with them.

Yang Ziqian, Yu Zi, Manager Ding and others were also chatting with one another in a group. Because Yu Zi was the designer of Charm, many noble ladies came to talk with her about gowns.

There were even some noble ladies who showed up at today's party in gowns from Charm, and they were fans of it.

A few VIP members of Kamei Beauty Salon were also present today, and they all came to talk with Manager Ding.

Therefore, Yang Ziqian was gradually ignored and left aside. He even felt like he was the odd one out. Yu Zi was busier than him normally, and it wasn't easy for the two of them to gather together.

"Hey, Ziqian, what are you doing here in a group of women? Why don't you hang out with some men?" One of Yang Ziqian's friends walked over. He felt like laughing when he found Yang Ziqian standing aside by himself.

"You don't understand it because you don't have a girlfriend," Yang Ziqian said, which hurt his single friend.

The man covered his chest at once, and pretended to be badly hurt. "Don't be so cruel to me."

"Really? Why don't you find yourself a girlfriend? You're too old to play around." Yang Ziqian rolled his eyes at the man.

"I want to have a girlfriend too, but where is she?" the man sighed with a resigned look on his face.

"Well, I understand that you can't move on because of Zhao Mengmeng. Since you can't forget her, why don't you chase her? I know that you don't mind her divorce, but your family does. Although it's hard to have a happy marriage without your parent's good wishes, I think that you can still work on it. You can cross that bridge when you come to it," Yang Ziqian said.

Hearing that, the man seemed upset. He understood that he lacked courage and determination. He did love Zhao Mengmeng, but it was also difficult to gain his family's approval.

His father wouldn't stop him, but his mother insisted that he should marry a rich girl. And his mother wasn't in good condition now, so he didn't dare to annoy her.

…

It was only a few minutes away from 5:20 pm, so the guests were all present in the hall.

Given the Tang family's circle of friends, there were a large number of guests who were either super-rich or powerful or very close to the Tang family.

When it was 5:20 pm, the wedding began, and a host went onstage to hold the ceremony.

After the opening speech, it was the bridegroom's turn to address a short speech.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for attending my wedding today. I'm finally married, and I couldn't be more excited now. I understand that you all must be very confused as to why I suddenly got married. It isn't a secret that I was caught in a car accident 19 years ago. Fortunately, a kind girl named Gu Man saved my life, but I lost my memory back then. We fell in love with each other and spent a year living together."

Chapter 983 The Bride Looks So Young

"We planned to get married after buying a house, but unfortunately I was caught in another car accident. When I woke up, I forgot her and the good memories of that year when we were together. I remembered my real identity and went back to the Tang family to get rid of those people who schemed against me behind my back."

Many people were aware of that, so they weren't surprised.

They didn't know that the bride today was precisely the girl who had saved Tang Yunfan's life 19 years ago until now.

Unexpectedly, Tang Yunfan was so loyal to his partner.

Everyone admired his loyalty.

Tang Yunfan continued, "I never got married during the past 18 years, because I had already found my love even though I lost her by accident. I couldn't accept another woman because of her. Luckily, I ran into her a while ago. I knew that she was the girl who I fell in love with 19 years ago, and she also stayed single for me. I promise that I'll love her, protect her, and make it up to her during the rest of my life."

The second he finished that, he got a round of loud applause. Many women even felt like crying. However, in case the tears damaged their make-up, they fought them back.

What had happened to Tang Yunfan and Gu Man was too complicated. It was torture for the two of them when they were in deep love with each other.

The thunderous applause went on and on.

"Now, please welcome the bride!" the host announced, then all the lights focused on the door which was in front of the stage. The music sounded, and Gu Man in a beautiful white wedding gown appeared in everyone's sight.

Normally, the bride would enter the hall holding her father's arm, but Gu Man's father already passed away, so her older brother, Gu Qinyang, stood by her side.

A little boy and a little girl followed Gu Man holding the long train of her wedding gown.

Red rose petals slowly drifted down from the ceiling, which created a breathtaking scene and stunned every woman in the hall.

All the unmarried women were dreaming about their future weddings. They hoped that their own weddings could be this romantic.

As for those married women who didn't have a romantic wedding, they felt utterly regretful now. Especially those who were over 40, they couldn't afford a good wedding because of poverty back then, let alone a romantic one.

Nevertheless, some believed that it wasn't important as long as the couple was in love.

…

Gu Man was more excited than ever now, so she didn't pay much attention to the romantic atmosphere in the hall. She simply followed Gu Qinyang walking ahead.

Gu Qinyang was also very nervous, but he kept reminding himself to stay calm.

Watching Gu Man walking towards him in a wedding gown, Tang Yunfan couldn't be more thrilled at this moment. They were finally legally married!

Although Tang Yunfan and Gu Man weren't young anymore, Tang Yunfan still had a burning desire for sex. Since they were married now, he could enjoy sex with her as much as he liked. He had waited for this moment for 19 years.

His family and friends had even believed that he could be a gay during the past 18 years.

It all changed since Gu Man appeared. In fact, Tang Yunfan couldn't wait to enjoy the sexual side of marriage with Gu Man. However, he had to wait till they were married, in case it left a bad impression on Gu Man.

…

Most of the invited guests didn't see Gu Man's face until now. When they saw her face, they were all surprised.

They couldn't believe that the bride had already fallen in love with Tang Yunfan 19 years ago.

She looked so young!

In other people's eyes, Gu Man only looked 30 at the most.

It was just a suitable age to get married nowadays.

Women nowadays preferred to get married at a later age, so a 30-year-old bride was still young.

"Jesus, the bride looks so young!"

"I think she's only 30 or so."

"How does she take care of her skin? I'm so curious about it."

"Me too!"

There was no woman who didn't care about her appearance, because women, especially aged women, were all afraid that their husbands might abandon them for young girls.

Men all loved beautiful, energetic young girls, and only a few men would stay loyal to their wives.

Especially in rich families, it wasn't a secret that rich men mostly had a mistress or two. Some of their wives didn't discover it yet, while some had to pretend that they knew nothing about it. Even though the wives felt sad and hurt, they could do nothing about it.

They didn't have a job, nor could they live on their own. It was impossible for them to get a divorce and live a simple life without luxuries.

At the same time, there were also many beautiful young girls who were too lazy to work and sold their bodies for money.

Chapter 984 What Is It?

in that case, those aged women, who married a rich husband, would refuse to have a divorce. they were already used to living a luxurious life, and had children as their hope. when their husbands had had enough, they might still have an intact family.although they often went to beauty salons, they didn't see obvious effects. however, they had to spend a lot of money on their appearances regardless of the effects.

"i don't think that she has really taken good care of her skin. it's the effect of her make-up!" jiang yutong's mother said with obvious jealousy.

she couldn't tolerate the fact that someone the same age as her was richer and even prettier than her. besides, she also had many bad comments on those beautiful young girls.

she was jealous of gu man because gu man was able to marry into the tang family. gu man became her relative to some extent.

"without good skin, the make-up wouldn't be so useful. i think she's a natural beauty," jiang jiamin's mother said.

in the jiang family, not only did jiang jiamin and jiang yutong argue against each other as long as they met, but their mothers also disliked one another.

jiang jiamin's mother wasn't as beautiful as jiang yutong's mother, but jiang jiamin was prettier and more successful than jiang yutong. therefore, jiang yutong's mother would mock jiang jiamin's mother's aged face, while jiang jiamin's mother would show off jiang jiamin's achievements.

as a result, neither of them could win.

"you…" jiang yutong's mother was mad. "oh, right, someone is too old to hide the wrinkles on her face, so the make-up is useless for her."

"you…" jiang jiamin's mother was furious and also retorted, "you're only five years younger than me, and you'll be old too in the near future with countless wrinkles on your face!"

"so what? there are no wrinkles on my face right now at least," jiang yutong's mother said, but she was actually very annoyed.

jiang jiamin's mother closed her mouth, because they were at the wedding held by the tang family now. she was unwilling to cause trouble here.

compared with jiang yutong's mother, jiang jiamin's mother behaved better.

…

on the other side of the hall, a group of noble ladies were talking about skincare products.

"i don't know how the bride takes care of her skin, but i do know a skincare brand which is super effective."

"really? what is it?"

"tell us now!"

no woman wanted to miss this good news.

"it's called kouzi, and is produced by colaine in the capital. although it isn't very famous yet, it's quite popular. i read many comments about it on the internet, and most women think that it's very safe and effective."

"kouzi? where can i buy it?"

"you can find counters of kouzi in every large shopping mall, but i bought it from a beauty salon named kamei beauty salon. kaimei has a large membership, and you have to get a reservation two or three days in advance before you go there to enjoy their services. look, the woman in a purple gown standing over there is the manager of kamei."

actually, there were many loyal fans of kamei beauty salon and kouzi now.

it was very easy for a good brand to gain fame as long as it had high quality. customers were walking ads after all.

nobody wanted to be deceived by fake advertisements on the tv or the internet.

"oh, how come the manager of kamei beauty salon was also invited?"

several women were surprised to know that, because kamei beauty salon was hardly comparable to the tang family's business.

in fact, not every invited guest at this party was either super-rich or powerful. some were just senior staff members of tanghuang.

although tanghuang was a very successful company, its senior staff members were merely ordinary people in other guests' eyes. therefore, those women were surprised to know that the manager of kaimei was also invited, but didn't think that it was impossible.

"is kamei beauty salon also owned by tanghuang?"

kamei beauty salon wasn't dominant in the industry, but it provided high-end products and services anyway. it could be the leading company in the industry with tanghuang's help and support in the future.

"i don't think so. the manager of kamei beauty salon could have a relationship with the tang family, or its boss has."

"no matter what, i'll give it a try tomorrow. if it's really so effective, i'll apply for a membership too."

Chapter 985 Confess Love to the Bride

"I'll go with you!"

Several women agreed to try it together.

"I believe that you'll fall in love with it once you try it, because I have already introduced it to many of my friends. They all love it."

Kouzi indeed became popular among rich women.

…

On the stage, Gu Man already stood in front of Tang Yunfan, and the host handed the microphone to Gu Qinyang to let him address the guests.

It was part of the ceremony, so Gu Qinyang was well-prepared.

He took the microphone and said to Tang Yunfan, "Yunfan, our father passed away many years ago, so I, as Man's older brother, stand here on behalf of our father. During the past 19 years, Man and Ningning have been through a lot. As a great mother, Man never complains about it. I also feel guilty that I haven't helped them at all. On the contrary, they have helped me a lot."

As a great mother?

What Gu Qinyang just said caused a sensation among the crowd.

The bride already has a daughter?

Tang Yunfan had just said that the bride also stayed single for him, which meant that the girl must be their daughter.

"Chairman Tang has a daughter?"

"He said that the bride also stayed single for him during the past 18 years, so I believe that the girl must be Chairman Tang's daughter."

"I don't think so. I don't believe that a woman could stay single for a man for 18 years!"

"Me neither. The girl must be the daughter of the bride and another man."

"If so, Chairman Tang must love the bride very much for him to be willing to accept her daughter with another man."

"I agree!"

They discussed in a low voice, so others didn't hear their discussion. However, Gu Ning was able to hear them, because she stood near to them.

After hearing their discussion about Gu Man, Gu Ning was displeased.

Leng Shaoting also had good hearing, but he didn't have the help of Jade Eyes like Gu Ning, so he wasn't able to clearly hear those women's discussion. He only noticed Gu Ning's displeased face, and went to hold her hand at once. "What's wrong?"

Gu Ning simply shook her head, and said nothing.

She hated to hear those women's discussion about Gu Man, but she had to admit that it made sense because only a few women had the ability to live with loneliness and also stay loyal to her beloved man.

Anyway, the truth would soon come out.

…

"Yunfan, I know you'll treat Man and Ningning very well, so there is no need for me to say anything more about that, but you should be aware of Ningning's personality. If you dare to treat Man badly, Ningning will take Man away from you," Gu Qinyang said at the end. It was what Gu Ning told him to say.

Although Gu Ning knew that Tang Yunfan wouldn't treat Gu Man badly, she still needed to do that.

Hearing that, Tang Yunfan got nervous. He glanced at Gu Ning who was under the stage, and Gu Ning made a face at him, which amused and annoyed him. His daughter was so naughty!

He believed that Gu Ning was able to keep her word, but he would never give her that chance.

"I won't give Ningning the chance to take Man away from me. I promise that Ningning herself will not be willing to leave our family and her biological father!" Tang Yunfan said with confidence.

Gu Ning laughed with happiness.

Knowing that Gu Ning was Tang Yunfan's biological daughter, everyone was surprised again.

It was hard to believe that Gu Man could stay single and raise their daughter alone for so many years. Moreover, Gu Ning grew up to be so outstanding!

In the past, it was unacceptable for an unmarried woman to raise a kid alone, so Gu Man must be mentally strong.

Many people agreed that Gu Man was indeed a great mother.

"Glad to hear that," Gu Qinyang said, then gave the microphone back to the host before he left the stage.

"Please present the ring," the host said.

Without delay, Gu Ning walked towards the stage with the ring on a tray in her hands.

Once she showed up, she became the focus of people's attention, because she was too attractive to be ignored.

"Jesus, is Gu Ning their daughter?"

People suddenly realized that Ningning could be Gu Ning.

Because Gu Ning was wearing make-up now, she didn't look very similar to Tang Yunfan.

"No way!" Some people couldn't believe it.

Whether they believed it or not, it turned out to be true that Tang Yunfan, Gu Man and Gu Ning were a family of three.

Gu Ning stopped in front of Tang Yunfan, and Gu Man felt a little shy being stared at by her daughter.

"Now, Mr. Tang, please confess your love to the bride with the ring," the host said.

Hearing that, Tang Yunfan picked the ring and said to Gu Man, "Man, I owe you too much, and I know it's impossible for me to fully make it up to you. Please give me a chance to take care of you and our daughter. I love you. Man, will you marry me?"

Afterwards, Tang Yunfan knelt down before Gu Man.

He had proposed to Gu Man before, but was willing to do it again at their wedding ceremony.

Chapter 986 Gu Ning"s Real Identity

gu man burst into tears of joy and repeatedly nodded. tang yunfan also beamed and put the ring on her finger. they got another round of thunderous applause.

after that, gu man also put a ring on tang yunfan's finger.

gu ning didn't leave the stage, because she was also an important figure of today's ceremony.

tang yunfan turned to hold the microphone again, and said to the guests in the hall, "well, today isn't only the wedding day of me and my wife, but it's also the day when my daughter, ningning, officially returns to our family."

saying that, tang yunfan looked at gu ning with his eyes full of love.

however, people under the stage were all shocked. although they had had that thought, none of them actually believed it. and then it turned out to be true!

jiang yutong's mother, tang zhiyu, and tang zhiyu's mother were struck dumb after hearing the shocking news.

if gu ning was tang yunfan's biological daughter, they had to give up the idea of stealing leng shaoting away from gu ning. if tang yunfan found out that they had that idea, they would be severely punished. tang yunfan wasn't weak at all.

cen xiangfei glanced at zhou guangrui at this moment. he couldn't be more jealous of zhou guangrui right now.

it seemed like zhou guangming was doomed to fail in the competition against zhou guangrui.

"mom, is it…" tang zhiyu rounded her eyes in shock. she was reluctant to give up such an outstanding young man.

"zhiyu, i think that you better give up the idea. we can't mess with tang yunfan," tang zhiyu's mother said in fear.

jiang yutong had no intention to steal leng shaoting away from gu ning, so she didn't mind it, but her mother felt quite disappointed. however, they had to accept the truth.

"man, thank you so much for giving me such a beautiful and smart daughter. she's made so many great achievements at such an early age. even i, as her father, feels inferior to her, but i'm also proud of her. she's established jade beauty jewelry, charm, fenghua entertainment and so forth all on her own. we didn't help her at all."

tang yunfan was unwilling to let people think that gu ning relied on the tang family to build her business empire.

gu ning didn't care about that, but she felt touched that tang yunfan was so considerate.

it was unavoidable that people might think that the tang family had helped gu ning a lot after her family connection with the tang family was revealed. compared with gu ning, the tang family was too influential to be ignored, and people heard more about the tang family than gu ning.

because gu ning was too young, it was hard for others to believe that she could become so successful all on her own.

in that case, it was necessary for tang yunfan to make it clear that gu ning was an independent girl. in fact, if gu ning hadn't become so outstanding among her peers, the tang family wouldn't have paid attention to her.

it sounded cruel, but it was reality.

tang yunfan added, "to be honest with you, ningning has more powerful connections than the tang family does."

hearing that, people were astonished again, but soon figured out that gu ning had gained a lot of help from her connections that she made when she built her business empire.

shengshi, jinlin, and tanghuang were all large corporations with hundreds of billions of yuan in assets. in addition, the two corporations owned by the two biggest gangs in the country were also very profitable.

people had heard that gu ning maintained a good relationship with the two corporations owned by the kirin gang and the qing gang. what they didn't know was that gu ning actually had a close relationship with the leaders of the two gangs.

…

at this moment, tang haifeng walked over and said, "i need to share something with all of you today. i visited city teng before the new year festival, but had a heart attack just as i walked out of the airport. fortunately, ningning was also at the airport, and she saved my life. i noticed that she closely resembled yunfan…"

in the following minutes, tang haifeng told everyone how he got to know gu ning and what had happened between them.

all in all, gu ning had already become successful before she met the members of the tang family. it proved that she had the ability to run her business on her own.

Chapter 987 Rejecting the Tang Family"s Property

"Although Ningning Just Returned to Our Family and We've Been Absent From Her Life for Nearly 19 Years, She's Still a Very Important Figure in Our Family. She Has the Same Right to Inherit Our Family's Property as the Other Grandchildren!" Tang Haifeng Said. The Last Sentence Was the Point.

Many People Believed That Gu Ning Wasn't Important in the Tang Family Because She Didn't Grow Up With the Other Family Members, Even Though She Was Tang Yunfan's Biological Daughter.

Therefore, They Were All Shocked After Hearing What Tang Haifeng Just Said. To Their Astonishment, Gu Ning Held a High Position in the Tang Family.

Gu Man Was Also Surprised.

Although She Married Into the Tang Family, and Gu Ning Was Tang Yunfan's Biological Daughter, She Had No Intention to Let Gu Ning Inherit the Tang Family's Property. In Fact, She Was Unwilling to See Gu Ning Inherit the Tang Family's Property, Because It Would Make People Think That They Returned to the Tang Family for Money.

At the Same Time, Many People Turned to Look at Tang Yunhang's Family, Especially Tang Jiayang and Tang Jiakai.

Tang Yunfan Had No Children Before, So the Brothers Would Inherit the Tang Family's Property in the Future.

Even Though Tang Yunfan Built Tanghuang Up All on His Own and the Other Members of the Tang Family Already Had Many Shares in It, the Successor Should Still Be a Member of the Tang Family.

However, Gu Ning Appeared Now, and Tang Haifeng Announced That She Also Had the Right of Inheritance, Which Meant That She Was Going to Get a Share of the Tang Family's Property.

Given Gu Ning's Previous Achievements, She Was More Likely to Be Chosen as the Heiress of Tanghuang. The Brothers, on the Other Hand, Could Lose Their Chance.

While People Thought That Tang Jiayang and Tang Jiakai Would Be Jealous of Gu Ning, Neither of Them Showed Any Jealousy. On the Contrary, They Seemed to Be Satisfied With Their Grandfather's Decision.

Both of Them Were Aware That Tang Yunfan Was the One Who Brought Tanghuang to Success, and the Tang Family Relied on Him to Become So Influential Today. Moreover, Tang Yunfan and Tang Yunhang Supported Each Other Along the Way as Close Brothers. There Was No Conflict Between Them at All.

Nevertheless, Onlookers Had the Opposite Idea. They Didn't Think That Tang Jiayang and Tang Jiakai Could Really Be as Calm as They Looked.

The Tang Family Owned Hundreds of Billions of Yuan in Wealth! Even if Gu Ning Couldn't Be the Heiress of the Tang Family, She Might Still Get Nearly Thirty Billion Yuan From the Tang Family's Property.

It Was an Unusually High Number!

Although City B Was an Advanced City With Countless Rich People, There Was Still a Huge Gap Between Common Rich People and Super Rich People. Besides, There Were a Lot More Ordinary People in City B. Even Those Guests Who Were Present Today Couldn't Be as Rich.

Gu Ning Wasn't Surprised by Tang Haifeng's Decision, and She Was Prepared for It.

"Thank You, Grandpa, for Your Love and Care, but I Must Make an Official Announcement Right Now, Right Here in Front of Everyone. I'm Willing to Give Up the Right of Inheritance of the Tang Family's Property."

Once Gu Ning Finished, Everyone Was Stunned. None of Them Could Believe Their Ears.

"No Way! Is She Going to Give Up the Right to Inherit the Tang Family's Property?"

"I Can't Believe It."

"She Can Get at Least Thirty Billion Yuan!"

"Doesn't She Like Money?"

"I Think That It's Just a Show for Outsiders."

People Began to Discuss Gu Ning's Words.

The Members of the Tang Family, However, Believed Gu Ning, Because They Knew That Gu Ning Didn't Lack Money at All. In Addition, They Also Wanted to Show Their Sincerity by Giving Gu Ning the Right of Inheritance. It Was Up to Gu Ning Whether She Was Willing to Accept It or Not.

Even Though the Members of the Tang Family Were Aware That Gu Ning Wasn't Greedy at All, They Were Still Surprised When She Rejected the Tang Family's Property.

Gu Man, on the Other Hand, Felt Relieved, Because She Didn't Want Gu Ning to Accept It Either.

Only Leng Shaoting, Gao Yi and Qiao Ya Stayed Calm.

In Fact, Gu Ning's Companies Were a Lot More Profitable Than Others Could Believe. She Also Preferred to Gain Whatever She Wanted by Working Hard for It.

Leng Shaoting Knew What Gu Ning Was Going to Do Today, Because He Had Helped Gu Ning Turn to a Professional Lawyer, Who Was Also the Exclusive Lawyer of Shengshi, for Help.

He Also Supported Gu Ning to Reject the Tang Family's Property.

Actually, Leng Shaoting Alone Had the Same Amount of Assets as the Tang Family, and He Was Willing to Give His Property to Gu Ning as Long as She Wanted. There Was No Need for Gu Ning to Take Over the Tang Family's Business. Leng Shaoting Alone Could Satisfy Her Needs.

Hao Ran and the Others Were Also Shocked at the Beginning, but They Soon Figured Out That Gu Ning Wasn't an Ordinary Girl. She Was Already Super-rich! In Addition, She Was Still Very Young, and Had a Bright Future Ahead.

"I Understand That Many of You Might Not Believe My Words, So I Hired a Lawyer and Set Up a Contract Beforehand. We Can Sign It Right Now," Gu Ning Said.

Chapter 988 Net Worth of Tens of Billions of Yuan

Gu Ning Indeed Had No Intention to Have a Share of the Tang Family's Property. She Preferred to Fight for What She Wanted on Her Own. And as Tang Yunfan's Biological Daughter, She Would Receive a Lot of Valuable Things. As Long as They Weren't Too Expensive, She Would Accept Them.

People Under the Stage Were Shocked Once More by What Gu Ning Just Said. They Were Surprised to Hear That She Had Already Prepared the Contract and a Lawyer.

Nobody Dared to Criticize Her Again. In Fact, Most of Them Were Simply Jealous of Gu Ning. It Was Impossible for Them to Reject So Much Wealth.

It Wasn't Uncommon for Biological Brothers or Sisters to Compete Against Each Other for the Right to Inherit. However, Members of the Tang Family Were Different.

The Tang Family Valued Familial Love Above Money. Even if Gu Ning Was Going to Take Over Tanghuang, They Wouldn't Disagree With It at All as Long as She Had the Ability to Run It Well. They Believed That Gu Ning Was Able to Do That.

The Members of the Tang Family Were Also Astonished by Gu Ning's Decision. They Had Never Told Gu Ning That They Were Going to Do This Before, but Gu Ning Understood What They Were Going to Do and Was Well-prepared for It.

Gu Ning Knew That She Would Join the Tang Family Sooner or Later, So It Was Necessary for Her to Be Fully Prepared for Her Future.

"Ningning, You Don't Have to Do That," Tang Haifeng Said.

He Was Aware That Gu Ning Was Adamant. Since She Already Made Her Decision, Nobody Could Change Her Mind.

Tang Haifeng Felt Proud of His Granddaughter, but Also Felt a Little Upset.

"Grandpa, You Know Me Better Than Anyone Else, and You Must Be Aware That I Have the Ability to Make a Lot of Money on My Own. I Also Want to Rely on Myself to Build My Business Empire," Gu Ning Said With Determination.

It Was True That Tang Haifeng Knew More About Gu Ning's Business Than Anyone Else in the Tang Family. There Were More Companies Than Just Jade Beauty Jewelry, Charm, and Fenghua Entertainment Under Gu Ning's Name.

Gu Ning Also Owned Xiangyun Antique-store and Colaine.

The Most Profitable Company She Owned Was the Colorful Jade Provider in City Teng, Which Only a Few People Were Aware of.

She Had Replaced the Wang Family and Became One of the Three Largest Raw Material Developers in City Teng. Colorful Jade Provider Alone Had a Net Worth of Tens of Billions of Yuan.

Jade Beauty Jewelry Was Also Very Popular Now, and Its Net Worth Should Be Around Two Billion Yuan at Least.

There Were Many Real Antiques Placed in Xiangyun Antique-store Too, and Each of Them Was Worth Millions of Yuan. In Addition, Gu Ning Had Stored Many More Real Antiques in Her Telepathic Eye Space.

Colaine and Kouzi Were Becoming Increasingly Famous as Well.

Within a Month, Colaine Made the Greatest Sales in the Industry, and the Numbers Could Be Even Higher in the Future.

Kouzi Was Even More Popular Among Women, and It Was Very Easy to Make Money From Women, So Kouzi Was Super Profitable.

…

Before Gu Ning Took Over Colaine, It Only Had Dozens of Millions of Yuan in Assets, but It Grew to Be a Big Company of Over a Hundred Million Yuan in Assets Now.

Many Businessmen Tried to Invest in Colaine, but Gu Ning Turned Their Offers Down. Gu Ning Would Only Cooperate With Them. She Also Laid Down a Condition That the Pharmaceutical Factory Had to Be Hers.

Ning Changkai Would Be in Charge of That. They Couldn't Let More People Find Out About the Magical Power After All.

Many Businessmen Were Annoyed by the Strict Conditions, but They Couldn't Do Anything About It.

…

Charm and Fenghua Entertainment Weren't Dominant Now, but They Were Still Growing Fast.

In That Case, Gu Ning Was Confident That She Could Make as Much Money as She Wanted on Her Own. She Also Had a Pair of Jade Eyes. Nobody Else Could Be as Successful as Her at Such an Early Age!

If Tang Haifeng Found Out More About Gu Ning's Business, He Would Be Even More Astonished Than Now.

Others in the Hall, However, Were Curious. They Wondered How Many Companies Gu Ning Already Owned.

However, Only the Tang Family Could Know More Details.

Hao Ran and the Others Understood That Gu Ning Was Involved in Many Industries, but Gu Ning Didn't Tell Them Many Details. It Was Obvious That Gu Ning Wasn't Willing to Make It Public Yet.

"What Does She Mean?"

"No Idea, but I'm So Curious About It."

"I Bet That She Has More Companies Under Her Name."

"She's So Unbelievable."

"Right!"

"I Can't Believe That She's Able to Be So Successful at Such a Young Age!"

People Began to Talk About Gu Ning's Business Empire.

"Well, as One of the Grandchildren of Our Family, You Were Born to Have the Right to Inherit Our Family's Property," Tang Haifeng Said.

Chapter 989 The Owner of Kamei Beauty Salon

"I know, but I'm willing to give it up," Gu Ning said in a serious tone. "Grandpa, I also need to ask you for a favor. I would rather keep my current name because I've used it for nearly 19 years, and I don't want to change it."She was already used to her surname, and disliked the family name Tang."There is no need to include me into the Tang family's family register, but include my mom. I'm doing that for a reason, but I'm afraid that I can't tell you all right now," Gu Ning added.

Hearing that, everyone was stunned, including members of the Tang family.

It was understandable that Gu Ning preferred to keep her current name because she had used it for nearly 19 years after all. However, it was confusing that she was unwilling to join the Tang family's family register.

No matter how curious those guests were, they couldn't ask that question as outsiders.

As for members of the Tang family, they chose to agree with Gu Ning on that. Anyway, it wouldn't change the fact that she was Tang Haifeng's biological granddaughter.

"Fine, since it's your decision, we'll listen to you," Tang Haifeng sighed with disappointment. He still felt a little hurt that his biological granddaughter was unwilling to join their family register.

Afterwards, Gu Ning, as the daughter of the newlywed couple, had to give a speech to her parents.

"Dad, I'm going to attend the National College Entrance Examination, and the Capital University is my target. From now on, I won't have much time to stay with you, so please take good care of my mother. She's a great mother and she has been through a lot because of me. If you don't treat my mother well, I'll take her away from you," Gu Ning said.

"I won't give you that chance!" Tang Yunfan made a serious promise. He was deeply in love with Gu Man, and it was impossible that he would treat her badly.

Male members of the Tang family were all loyal to their partners. Tang Yunhang and Jiang Lihua were a loving couple too.

"Great, I trust you," Gu Ning said with a smile.

After that, Gu Ning said to Gu Man, "Mom, you should also take good care of yourself and my dad. Grandpa, and everyone in the Tang family, I wish you all the best."

As long as Tang Yunfan and the other members of the Tang family took good care of Gu Man, Gu Ning would be grateful to them and also care about them.

"Don't worry about me. I will," Gu Man said.

In the following minutes, the newlywed couple needed to serve Tang Haifeng a cup of tea. Gu Man called Tang Haifeng father and Tang Haifeng gave each of them a red envelope for luck to finish the part of this ceremony.

Afterwards, the members of the Tang family had to present their gifts to the bride.

They had all prepared great gifts, and Gu Ning was the last one who showed her gift to her mother.

She took out a jewelry case and handed it to Gu Man. "Mom, happy wedding day. This is a set of blue stone jewelry, and…"

Saying that, Gu Ning turned to look at the lawyer. The lawyer walked over, then gave Gu Ning a folder along with a pen. Gu Ning handed them to Gu Man and said, "Mom, this is the contract of shares transfer. Once you sign this, you'll be the owner of Kamei Beauty Salon."

When people heard that Gu Ning sent a set of blue stone jewelry to Gu Man, they weren't surprised at all, because Gu Ning was very rich. However, everyone was astonished when they heard that Gu Ning was going to give Kamei Beauty Salon to Gu Man.

In addition, they were also shocked that Kamei Beauty Salon was owned by Gu Ning.

It seemed like Gu Ning indeed had more companies under her name without people knowing about it at all!

Gu Man was aware that Gu Ning was going to give Kamei Beauty Salon to her, so she happily signed her name on the contract.

People under the stage began to discuss it again.

"No way! Kamei Beauty Salon is also Gu Ning's property?"

"Jesus, she's a talented businesswoman!"

"I'm short of words now."

"Well, since Mrs. Tang is the owner of Kamei Beauty Salon now, we can apply for membership to form a good relationship with Mrs. Tang."

"That's a good idea!"

"I agree!"

Many rich wives thought that this was a good chance for them to form a good relationship with Gu Man, because she just married into the Tang family.

Given the Tang family's influence, Kamei Beauty Salon would attract more super-rich consumers.

Gu Ning also had the intention to let those rich wives and noble ladies know that Gu Man was now the owner of Kamei Beauty Salon.

It was a win-win for everyone.

After signing the contract, the party began, and everyone started to enjoy it.

Gu Man was always kind and gentle even though she just became Mrs. Tang, which left a good impression on others.

Many people thought that Gu Man would be arrogant once she married into the Tang family, but she did the opposite.

In fact, nobody liked arrogant people, and no one would be willing to please an arrogant person except for benefits.

The members of the Tang family also kept a low profile, and they were polite to others all the time. It wasn't difficult to be acquaintances of them, but it was very hard to be their friends.

"Mrs. Tang, May I know your age?" a noble lady asked Gu Man curiously.

Chapter 990 In the Party

Gu Man wasn't used to the title of Mrs. Tang yet, so she felt a little nervous when others addressed her in that way."I'm 39 this year," Gu Man said.Gu Man understood why other women were curious about her age.

Although the others already knew that Gu Man must be around 40 now because Gu Ning was 19 this year, they were still surprised to hear that Gu Man was 39.

"Really? You look much younger than your real age. How do you take care of your skin?"

"I can't believe that you're 39!"

"Me neither!"

None of those rich wives and noble ladies could believe it.

They thought that it probably had something to do with Kamei Beauty Salon or Kouzi, but they still wanted to hear the answer from Gu Man's mouth.

Gu Man felt happy that others were complimenting her. She smiled and said, "I only use Kouzi, and my skin has gotten better and better over time after using it."

She wasn't advertising Kouzi; it was the truth. However, she didn't tell them that she was taking power crystals at the same time, because Gu Ning told her to keep it a secret.

Gu Ning didn't want others to turn to her to buy magical power for their appearances, because magical power was more useful and meaningful to save one's life. Even though she had a lot of magical power now, she wasn't sure when she would run out of it, so she preferred to use it to do some meaningful things.

Kouzi alone was enough to satisfy their need to get prettier. Although Kouzi wasn't as effective as the magical power, it was still excellent at anti aging.

Knowing that it was Kouzi, those rich wives and noble ladies couldn't wait a second to try it. They refused to age, even though it was unstoppable. Unfortunately, they were at an important party now, so they couldn't leave.

The party would be over around 7 pm, and they planned to buy a set of Kouzi tonight.

Thinking of that, they got excited.

…

"Hey, boss!" Hao Ran, Pan Zirui and the others said while walking towards Gu Ning.

When Pan Zirui and Hao Ran heard each other call Gu Ning their boss, they were struck dumb for a second.

���Hi, let me introduce you, this is Pan Zirui, we met in City B. These are all his friends, Guan Bin, Zhou Guangrui, Hu Hao and Zhou Yongkang," Gu Ning said to Hao Ran and the others.

Afterwards, she turned to Pan Zirui. "They're all my good friends from my school. Hao Ran, Mu Ke, Chu Peihan, Qin Zixun, Yu Mixi, Su Anya, An Yi and Zhang Tianping."

They greeted one another, then casually chatted together in a group.

…

Du Yujian stood afar and felt jealous of them. He wished that he could be Gu Ning's friend.

After a while, Pan Zirui's parents and his older brother also walked to Gu Ning.

Pan Zirui's older brother was almost fully recovered, and he was able to move all on his own, which shocked the medical field of City B.

If Gu Ning hadn't told Pan Zirui to tell the doctors that it was impossible for them to find out the formula of the medicine, those doctors wouldn't have given up studying it.

Many medical experts had tried to figure out why the medicine was so effective, but they all failed.

"Miss Gu, I'm so surprised to hear that you're Lord Tang's biological daughter," Pan Zirui's father said.

"Well, it won't make any difference. I'll still be me," Gu Ning said airily. She had no intention to gain benefits with the help of the Tang family's influence.

Actually, she would rather keep it a secret, because it would be more convenient for her to run her business without too many people paying attention to her. However, if she did that, Tang Haifeng and Tang Yunfan would be disappointed, so she could only set a condition that the media couldn't be involved. Given her fame now, it would go viral within a short time once the media reported her real identity.

A super-rich family like the Tang family would normally invite the media to show up at parties.

Gu Ning hoped that there could be fewer people who knew her real identity.

Tang Haifeng agreed with Gu Ning on that, because he understood that Gu Ning didn't want to attract too much attention.

…

"Ha-ha, right," Pan Zirui's father said and laughed. He admired Gu Ning's confident attitude. "I was thinking of greeting you just then, but you were very busy. I haven't gotten a chance to thank you in person yet!"

Gu Ning had saved Pan Zirui's older brother's life after all.

"Miss Gu, thank you so much for your help!" Pan Zirui's older brother said.

"Since Pan Zirui is my friend, I'm glad to help you. It's not a big deal, and we can drop this topic," Gu Ning said with a smile.

"Alright, Miss Gu, if you need us in the future, feel free to let us know," Pan Zirui's father said. Although Pan Zirui's father understood that it wasn't very likely that Gu Ning would need his help in the future, he was showing with his attitude that he sided with Gu Ning.

"Thanks, and cheers!" Gu Ning smiled, and they raised their glasses with one accord.

When the others saw the Pan family chatting with Gu Ning with a broad smile, they knew that the Pan family had a close relationship with her.

People who were invited to join today's party all had a certain relationship with the Tang family, but mostly only for benefits. Therefore, many of them got jealous of the Pan family because the Pan family could have a close relationship with Gu Ning.

The Pan family didn't chat with Gu Ning for long, and soon walked away.
