Gong Changle's face lit up at the words.
"Ancestor, I can't thank you enough! Let me bow to you!"
He exclaimed joyfully, relieved that he would no longer have to face misfortune.
Ruan Fuxi, however, helplessly stopped him. "No need for that."
Beside them, Gong Le expressed his gratitude with a sincere look. "Miss Ruan, Changle's good fortune is truly thanks to you. You are a benefactor to our Gong family."
Ruan Fuxi shot him a half-smile but remained silent.
Gong Le was aware that he had wronged her by previously shutting down her livestream, and he felt a pang of shame. "I apologize for closing your livestream before, Miss Ruan. It was indeed my fault. Now that your channel has been reinstated and you are also a major shareholder of Shark, in the future, the gifts and donations from your livestream will not be subject to any cuts. Whatever the viewers send, you will receive in full."
He then took out a check and said, "This is our family's token of gratitude towards you, Miss Ruan. I hope you won't find it lacking."
Gong Le presented it with utmost sincerity.
Seeing this, Ruan Fuxi decided not to hold onto her grievances any longer and accepted the check.
Gong Le had been somewhat anxious before, but now that she had taken the check, he finally felt relieved.
"Miss Ruan, let me arrange for someone to drive you back."
Ruan Fuxi smiled lightly. "No need to be polite; I drove here myself."
Gong Changle immediately chimed in, "Ancestor, I'll see you out!"
When Ruan Fuxi returned to the Ruan family home and looked at the fifty-thousand-dollar check Gong Le had handed her, a smile spread across her face.
It was indeed quite generous.
Moreover, the fact that the gift platform would not take a cut from her livestream made Ruan Fuxi feel satisfied as well.
Following the old routine, Ruan Fuxi donated twenty to a charity organization. At that moment, Qi Hui and Gong Changshun had also awakened, opening their eyes to find themselves and their luggage discarded by the roadside.
Qi Hui was unsure what had happened during the time she had fainted, but she worried that the Gong family might have taken action against her son. Anxiously, she asked, "Changshun, do you feel unwell?"
Gong Changshun only felt a slight dizziness and shook his head. "No."
He then asked, "Mom, where do we go next?"
Qi Hui thought for a moment, her face serious. "First, we need to leave the capital and go back to our hometown. Since Tian hasn't shown up for so long, something must have happened. He might even be gone."
The Gong family was powerful in the capital, and staying there with her son wouldn't yield any benefits. She had saved some money; it would be better to leave the capital first and then plan their next steps.
Gong Changshun had always listened to his mother and had no objections this time either. The two gathered their belongings and bought tickets to leave.
Meanwhile, Yu Qi was also having a rough couple of days. Huang Jian had suddenly changed his attitude towards her for reasons unknown. Not only did he take back the card he had given her, but he almost kicked her out as well.
Yu Qi felt disgruntled; ever since she placed the charm in Huang Jian's phone case, he had reverted to his old self—demanding and yet incredibly gentle and considerate towards her. Not only did she find herself looking better than ever, but her luck also seemed to improve. She hadn’t lost a single round while playing mahjong with others.
But ever since that night when Huang Jian returned, his attitude suddenly changed. Not to mention any tenderness, he wouldn't even give me a smile.
