<h4>Chapter 948: Used (2)</h4>


    “Even Gu Zhiqian’s mother didn’t pick up on the fact that I am an imposter. She is even under the impression that Gu Zhiqian had finally grown up and matured, and that he is finally choosing to do the right thing now.” Wang Manpeng threw up his hands. “Of course, I know that one of the reasons I managed to inherit thepany so easily is because of Ruan Zeyan’s support. I don’t think he would ever realize that he just helped the enemy to the throne, the enemy who would tear the Ruan family down.”


    Wang Manpeng was excited and his eyes twinkled. “Using the Gu family’s money, I managed to purchase many advanced and heavy-duty weapons. How did you think I was able to hold Ruan Zeyan back in Country E for so many days?”


    “I’m not killing Gu Zhiqian and am keeping him alive because he never did anything to offend me. He is not my enemy. It would be too cruel of me if I assumed his identity and then proceeded to kill him.” Wang Manpeng reclined on the sofa in azy manner. “Since we grew up together, after all, I will release him when I’m finally done with my work here. Of course, everyone will think that Gu Zhiqian is the one who killed the Ruan family. When the Gu family is at their wit’s end, they will have to turn to me as well.”


    As she listened to Wang Manpeng’s sinister n, Ling Tianya felt a heavy weight crushing her chest. Everyone had been used, everyone had been used by Wang Manpeng.


    “You think I’m the worst crook, don’t you?” Wang Manpeng asked. “You said that Ruan Zeyan treated me like a brother, and you said that he has been living with guilt ever since my death. But he sent my only living sister to North Africa, and he tortured her and made her suffer. Is this what guilt looks like to Ruan Zeyan?”


    Ling Tianya looked at him with disgust at the mention of Mandy. “Didn’t Mandy tell you why Ruan Zeyan sent her all the way to North Africa?”


    Wang Manpeng narrowed his eyes. “What was the reason? Wasn’t it just because Mandy fell in love with someone that she shouldn’t have? She fell in love with Ruan Zeyan, and she wanted to be his woman. He didn’t appreciate her feelings for him at all. He detested her efforts and told her that he treated her as a servant all along. He used her of trying to seduce her master and criticized her for being shameless. That’s why he sent her away to that wretched ce. He was going to leave her there alone to die!”


    “That’s what Mandy Wang told you?” Ling Tianya knew that she wouldn’t have told Wang Manpeng the truth. She would have conjured up a convenient lie to paint a different picture. She would have made herself the victim and put herself on a moral pedestal. That was how she had managed to convince Wang Yazhi in the past as well.


    “Of course, what was the reason then?” Wang Manpeng believed what his sister had told him. Why would his sister hate Ling Tianya so much otherwise, so much that she wanted Ling Tianya dead?


    “Of course not!” Ling Tianya’s gaze was burning. Coldly, she said, “Mandy Wang didn’t tell you about how she colluded with Ruan Guofu? How she tried to win my mother-inw over, and how she almost killed my mother-inw with a metal te? I bet she didn’t tell you how my mother-inw kept her in the mansion out of the goodness of her heart, but she made use of her kindness against me. She made use of my mother-inw and tried to poison me so that I would be infertile.”


    “What are you saying?” Wang Manpeng’s expression was one of shock. He clearly had no idea what Ling Tianya was talking about.


    “You don’t believe me?” Ling Tianya pointed at Zhang Ke. “You can ask your trusted, capable subordinate. She knows all about it!”


    Wang Manpeng turned to look at Zhang Ke, and she nodded her head in affirmation.
