The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel“s Disguise Chapter 88 Showtime

The elderly lady's eyes fell on a slightly uncomfortable teenager and she beamed with joy, "Is this our little Yuan? He has grown up into a fine young man." Not caring about Xiao Zhi Yuan's reluctance, she pulled him in her arms.
In the side corner, Ru could see the way tears had pooled into those aged eyes but the elderly lady was strong since she didn't even let a single tear escape her glistening eyes.
After that, she stopped paying attention to the family drama before her, she brought her watch close to her mouth and said softly, "Black Mist, it's showtime!"
From the tiny earpiece in her ear, she could hear the reply, "On position. Awaiting Master's command."
Ru rummaged out her cellphone. She had previously hacked all the surveillance camera's of the Mansion and the live stream was connected straight to her cellphone and to the devices in the hands of Black Mist members.
Seeing a lot of guests still strolling in the garden as they were appreciating the beautiful architecture of the pavilions, she waited for them to move before giving orders.
"Mr. Xie Rong?" Hearing her name- at least one of her names- being called out, Ru instantly tapped on the screen of her phone and the live streaming of the surveillance cameras turned into the stock market analysis.
She looked up and was surprised to see that the person who had addressed her just now was in fact, Ji Yifeng. Apparently, he was said to be the father of Xiao Zhi Ren and Xiao Zhi Yuan. She couldn't say anything about Xiao Zhi Yuan but Xiao Zhi Ren definitely had some touches of his father's features.
"Mr. Ji Yifeng, it's nice meeting you again." Ru altered her persona almost immediately into a polite person one couldn't possibly not like this handsome and eloquent young master.
Ji Yifeng smiled at her politely as well. Not being supercilious or imperious. There were hundreds of guests who came to find a way to chat with the chairman of Ji Conglomerate. But as soon as Ji Yifeng caught sight of Ru standing alone in a corner, he immediately made his way towards her.
"I'm glad to see you here. I was wondering whether you'd accept my invitation or not." Yes! Ru had indeed received the invitation from Ji Yifeng himself but his invitation came after she had promised to come along with Xiao Zhi Ren. "I seem to be the worst host, you don't even have a drink in your hand."
Ji Yifeng was about to turn to get something to drink when Ru's voice stopped him. "Mr. Ji Yifeng, I'm fine. I don't really want a drink. At least not for now. Otherwise, this young master would have long gone to get it for himself."
Ji Yifeng liked her straightforwardness. It was like she didn't care about her image at all. Ji Yifeng found her very easygoing. A complete contrast to what he had heard in rumors. If he hadn't seen Ru during Xiao Zhi Ren's product launch event, he would have been like all the guest around him; trying to guess her identity. After all, her mere presence pulled Chairman of Ji Conglomerate towards herself.
That fact alone was enough to tell that she wasn't some simple character at all.
Feeling a certain someone's absence, Xiao Zhi Ren darted his eyes around to look for Ru only to find her happily chatting with Ji Yifeng. That scene didn't sit well with him. He didn't want Ru to have any kind of interaction with his father. Not in business and most importantly, not in personal life.
Feeling annoyed, he walked up to her side and held her elbow. "Come, I have something to tell you." Completely disregarding Ji Yifeng's presence, he pulled Ru with himself who felt really uneasy as she saw the look on Ji Yifeng's face. She was familiar with that look.
She had seen the same pain in her father's eyes whenever he punished her. It was like her pain was piercing his soul and right now, Xiao Zhi Ren's rudeness must be piercing Ji Yifeng's heart.
"Let go of me," Ru escaped his grip and dusted off her sleeve to get rid of imaginary creases. "I was having an important conversation." She said with a bit of anger.
"Don't socialize with a man like him." Xiao Zhi Ren said bluntly not sugar coating his words at all.
"Why?"
"Can't you see? He actually destroyed our happy family by cheating. If he hadn't done that we wouldn't have left and my mother would have been alive." He spoke out in exasperation. He hated his father for this sole reason.
