<h4>Chapter 1043: The Real and Fake Young Miss (4)</h4>


    Ruan Qishan was tired after greeting everyone with the tiny rice ball, so he ced the tiny rice ball back in the carriage.


    Upon seeing his daughter-inw crying, he asked curiously, “Why are you crying?”


    If she was crying in such arge and public ce, who knew what kind of rumors would spread about the Ruan family.


    Ling Tianya quickly wiped away her tears. The reason why she cried was first, because she had really missed Madam Ruan and, even if it was to hear her nagging, Ling Tianya was still happy.


    Second, she cried for Wang Manpeng to see in order for him to confirm that she was actually Wang Mandy.


    From Wang Manpeng’s perspective, Ling Tianya was a calm person and wouldn’t cry in public.


    This was the biggest difference between Wang Mandy and Ling Tianya. A sparrow was a sparrow. Even if it wore a phoenix’s feathers, it could never be a phoenix.


    The birthday banquet could finally begin its proper course.


    In reality, this so-called course was quite simple: Ruan Qishan would go onstage and speak as the birthday boy and then thank his friends, family, and business partners for attending. Then, everyone would wish Ruan Qishan a happy birthday and give him gifts. Afterward, they would cut the cake.


    This was a simple, kid-style birthday party process. Wang Mandy had said with great fanfare that she was going to organize a blowout for Ruan Qishan’s birthday banquet, but in the end, the ns were so-so.


    Even if Wang Yazhi had organized it, it wouldn’t have been as boring. In reality, both Wang Yazhi and Madam Ruan were very disappointed by the party. However, because they were concerned about Ling Tianya’s emotions, they didn’t say anything.


    However, the guests who came to participate in it didn’t dismiss it. The banquet hall’s decorations were like those of a high schooler’s party at home and didn’t carry the aura of a high society family.


    Didn’t the Ruan family’s youngdy have extraordinary abilities? She was a gold medal screenwriter and a big boss of arge entertainmentpany. Why couldn’t she even organize a simple birthday banquet? Did she only look impressive but was actually worthless? After all, in high society circles, there were many people who looked impressive but were actually worthless.


    Ling Tianya stood in the middle of the banquet hall and took in all of the criticizing words that called her into question. However, she was still happy, because from Wang Mandy’s perspective, being able to do even this was considered a sess. Therefore, Wang Mandy would think that she was fine and also believe that she did something awesome.


    As for Ling Tianya, she thought that since she wasn’t the one who had nned this banquet, people could say whatever they wanted about it.


    After all, having a birthday was a celebratory thing. Although there was a small interlude before, Ruan Qishan was quickly put at ease. Now, he walked up to the main stage and said a couple of words to the guests who had arrived to celebrate him.


    On stage, Ruan Qishan quickly said a few words before ending. The day’s banquet was supposed to a rxed and happy asion. Ruan Qishan didn’t want to say too much and make it into arger meeting. Plus, it was only a birthday celebration. There was nothing much to say about it.


    After a series of respectful and congrattory drinks, waitresses wearing beautiful uniforms pushed the cake cart out. On top of it was the cake that the Ruan family’s dessert chef, who hade from France, had made personally.


    Everyone gathered in front of the cake. On top of it was a candle.


    After so many years of holding a banquet on his birthday, leaving out when he was a child, this was the first time he was able to blow out a candle, and it gave him quite a fresh feeling.


    In order to construct the right mood, the lights in the hall dimmed, and Ruan Qishan prepared to blow out the candles. However, he was stopped by Wang Yazhi. “Before you blow out the candle, you must make a wish.”


    “Is that it?” Ruan Qishan paused and then said, smiling, “Then... I wish for all of my family members and friends to live sessfully and peacefully.”


    After he was finished speaking, Ruan Qishan blew out the candle.


    “Speaking of friends, Uncle Ruan, don’t you have a friend named Wang Zhengguo?”
