He might not be able to handle Gong Lingqian right now, but it would be good if he could deal with Shu Yurou.

As long as she could pull Shu Yurou to her side, marrying into the palace was not a matter of time!

An Qingruo thought beautifully in her heart and was in a good mood. She hummed to herself as she walked out of the room on her high heels.

Ruan Qingwan was currently waiting downstairs in the living room. An Qingruo directly walked in front of Ruan Qingwan, smiled as she lifted up the hem of her skirt and asked after she walked around in a circle in front of Ruan Qingwan: ”Mom, is the dress I'm wearing nice to look at? Isn't the color a bit too plain? ”

Ruan Qingwan looked at An Qingruo and laughed, then nodded: ”She's beautiful, with the looks of my daughter, anything she wears will look nice.”

Being praised like that by Ruan Qingwan, the smile on An Qingruo's face became even wider, she pouted and quickly grabbed onto Ruan Qingwan's hand: ”Mom, it's getting late, let's go to Gong’s Mansion!”

An Qingruo was getting impatient, who knew, maybe she would even run into Gong Lingqian when she went to Gong’s Mansion!

If only he could meet Gong Lingqian!

She hadn't seen Gong Lingqian for a long time!

Gong Lingqian was too busy with work and she didn't have much contact with Gong Lingqian, so she couldn't even find a suitable reason to look for him.

Ruan Qingwan looked at An Qingruo and nodded lovingly, then called the servant over to arrange the driver.

After burying Lu Yaozong, Ruan Qingwan then shifted all of her focus onto An Qingruo.

Now, An Qingruo was the only reason for Ruan Qingwan to continue living.

If not for owing An Qingruo for more than twenty years, she would have died along with her.

So now, Ruan Qingwan's doting towards An Qingruo had already reached the extent of being completely obedient!

An Qingruo pulled Ruan Qingwan onto the carriage and started their journey.

Today, Shu Yurou had not only invited Ruan Qingwan and her mother, she had also invited the wives of the wealthy families who had a good relationship with her.

It had been several months since Shu Yurou had officially invited these good sisters to a gathering since her return.

Secondly, because of the incident with Lu Yaozong earlier, in order to avoid suspicion, Shu Yurou had never called him to inquire about it. Shu Yurou was afraid that this matter might leave a knot in her good friend's heart, so Shu Yurou wanted to have a good chat with Ruan Qingwan today at the reunion.

This was also the main reason why Shu Yurou held this gathering.

When Ruan Qingwan and An Qingruo arrived at the Gong’s Mansion, there were already a few luxurious cars parked outside the Gong’s Mansion.

As soon as he entered the main hall, he heard a few well-dressed middle-aged women sitting on the sofa inside, drinking tea and chatting with each other.

Shu Yurou was among them.

The other middle-aged women that had met before were all rich wives from the Wealthy Class in Yao City.

Only the one seated closest to Shu Yurou, who had a temperament that was like orchids, looked very young and unfamiliar to him, so much so that An Qingruo did not recognize the middle-aged woman.
