Chapter Index
    Ruan Tang looked at the chrysanthemum tea and suppressant that the male servant presented, feeling utterly helpless.

    These were all good things for destroying the atmosphere, reducing heat, and restraint.

    Having grown up, he had never seen such a refined and unconventional Alpha who would send suppressants and chrysanthemum tea to an Omega just because the Omega had flirted with him a few times from afar…

    Ruan Tang was speechless and could only comfort himself, thinking that perhaps this was Auston’s charming point, at least this showed that he was a very clean and self-disciplined Alpha, completely different from the likes of Ruan Ming.

    “Madam,” Auston stepped forward, quietly sniffing the scent on Ruan Tang, and handed the things in his hand to him.

    Ruan Tang took the things and immediately waved his hand at him, saying, “Okay, I understand. Thank you, Your Excellency, for me. It’s getting late, you should go back and rest early.”

    Auston saw him urging him to leave, although he was a little reluctant to part with Ruan Tang’s scent, as a male servant, he obediently responded, “Yes,” and retreated.

    However, when leaving Ruan Tang’s room, he couldn’t help but think, wasn’t Ruan Tang being normal like this very good? Weren’t they getting along very happily before?

    Why did he have to be like this?

    It made him afraid to come and see him. Fortunately, he still had another identity.

    Sure enough, Omegas couldn’t be spoiled. He would have to keep his distance from Ruan Tang in the future.

    Ever since Ruan Tang climbed to a high position and became the chairman of the Omega Protection Association, there were countless people who hated him and wanted to pull him down.

    This time, his actions of storming the Ruan Family Estate and dragging away Xia Ruzhi were so high-profile that before things could calm down, someone immediately seized the opportunity and posted a violent video of Ruan Tang publicly beating Xia Ruzhi online, openly accusing him of being an Omega male who didn’t protect the weaker Omega female at all, and even resorted to violence. Could he really do a good job of protecting Omega rights, improving the interests of Omegas nationwide, and seeking welfare for Omegas?

    The video was cut short at both ends, and Ruan Tang’s appearance of beating Xia Ruzhi was too fierce and crazed, scaring everyone. They left messages online: “WTF, what’s going on? Does this Ruan Tang look gentle but is actually so fierce? So scary, his eyes are full of murderous intent when he hits people…”

    “I heard that the person being beaten is his stepmother. I don’t know what grudges they have, but even if they have grudges, shouldn’t an Omega male be so cruel to a weak Omega female?”

    “I feel like this Ruan Tang has violent tendencies just like his husband. Birds of a feather flock together…”

    “Too cruel, too fierce, I’ve never seen such a fierce Omega…”

    “Can such a person really take on the important task of chairman of the Omega Protection Association?”

    Various people tried to guide public opinion to make people feel that Ruan Tang was not worthy of the position of chairman of the Omega Protection Association.

    When they saw this news, Ruan Zhuoxu and Ruan Xi were at their maternal grandparents’ house, the Xia family, discussing a plan to rescue Xia Ruzhi, wanting to use their connections to get Xia Ruzhi out so that she wouldn’t be convicted. Seeing this news, everyone in the Xia family was happy and felt elated.

    “Look at this Ruan Tang, look at how arrogant and rampant he is… See? Now someone is taking action against him, right? I’ll see if he can still be arrogant in the future. Daring to treat Ruzhi like this is simply outrageous. Ruzhi is his stepmother.” Old Master Xia looked at the trending topics and felt relieved: “He thinks he’s great just because he’s the chairman of the Omega Protection Association. He’s still too green. There are plenty of people who want to take him down… So unfilial and unkind, a petty person who gets his way, I’ll see how he cries in the future.”

    He gloated as he watched someone deal with Ruan Tang, and he could almost imagine Ruan Tang being pulled down from the chairman’s position, becoming penniless again. Once Auston died, Ruan Tang would have no one to rely on and could only barely survive, wagging his tail and begging at his daughter’s feet.

    Ruan Xi immediately echoed, “What Grandpa says is true. This Ruan Tang has done all sorts of bad things, and it’s about time he got his comeuppance.”

    Ruan Tang’s luck should have run out a long time ago. He didn’t believe that Ruan Tang could be proud for a while and be proud for a lifetime. The god of luck would always stand on his side.

    Look at now, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Ruan Tang took action against their family, and the people waiting to take action against Ruan Tang were already here, weren’t they?

    “Alright, stop gloating,” Ruan Zhuoxu frowned, somewhat disdaining his maternal grandfather and brother’s petty ways. “What we need to do most now is to rescue Mother. We can’t let her be convicted and sentenced, or our family will be finished.”

    They had been running around for Xia Ruzhi’s matter these days, but Ruan Tang was also putting in all his efforts, using all his connections, determined to put Xia Ruzhi in jail.

    Ruan Ming’s attitude was ambiguous. Relying solely on Ruan Zhuoxu and Ruan Xi’s network of contacts was far from being a match for Auston, who was high-ranking and powerful. They had already been rejected several times and were almost at their wits’ end.

    They could only hope that Old Master Xia could have some way to rescue Xia Ruzhi.

    The Xia family had been in decline for many years, and they had only risen again after relying on the Ruan family.

    Their prosperity and loss were intertwined, and the source of the Xia family’s glory lay in Xia Ruzhi, the daughter who became Madam Ruan, and Ruan Zhuoxu, the grandson who was the future heir of the Ruan family…

    “Don’t worry, don’t worry, I’ve already found the connections for your mother’s side. Ruan Tang won’t be able to convict her. She will definitely be able to come out. Ruan Ming can ignore his wife, but as her father, can I ignore my own daughter?” Old Master Xia was composed, as if everything was under control.

    He didn’t take Ruan Tang, the son born to a commoner woman, seriously at all.

    Even if Ruan Tang had Auston behind him, Auston was just a mad dog on his last legs. How could he compare to the powerful figure he had latched onto?

    Old Master Xia was confident, but Ruan Zhuoxu frowned slightly, feeling a little worried, and was about to say something: “But…”

    Just then, a group of interstellar patrol officers and soldiers in uniform broke into the Xia family: “Is Mr. Xia Zhongming here?”

    “Who are you? What do you want in our house? Security, security, why didn’t you stop them?” Old Master Xia was used to treating the law as nothing and immediately questioned, pointing fingers at the patrol officers.

    However, they were just a bunch of low-level civil servants. Did they think they could reach the sky?

    They were a noble family, and they had people above them.

    The patrol officers ignored him completely, not taking him seriously at all, and repeated the question: “Is Mr. Xia Zhongming here?”

    “I am, what do you want? Who is your superior?” Xia Zhongming frowned, asking quite dismissively.

    The leading patrol officer gave a gesture without saying a word. Two auxiliary policemen immediately rushed out from behind him and put energy handcuffs on Old Master Xia without explanation: “We have found out that you participated in and planned the incident of Major General Ruan Yang that year, suspected of murdering an Imperial Major General, disrupting military affairs, affecting the judicial system, and also suspected of bribing officials… Please come with us.”

    Ruan Tang did not announce the matter of Ruan Yang that year, but the investigation into this incident had been continuing. The military was different from the Imperial Star. The Xia family’s hands and eyes could not reach the sky. Ruan Yang had many connections, and after waking up and demanding a thorough investigation, he quickly turned the matter upside down and revealed its relationship with the Xia family.

    Xia Zhongming’s face was pale. He had not expected that this matter could be uncovered. He broke out in a cold sweat and almost fainted.

    “Are you mistaken? Our Xia family is a family of hereditary nobles and has no connections in the military. Moreover, Ruan Yang is my brother. How could my maternal grandfather attack Major General Ruan Yang? It would not be beneficial to my maternal grandfather.” Ruan Xi immediately stood up to argue for Old Master Xia.

    Xia Ruzhi had already gone in. If Old Master Xia also followed, and Ruan Ming was unwilling to take care of this matter, their family would really be finished.

    Ruan Xi didn’t want them to take Xia Laozi away.

    The patrol officer gave him a cold look, his attitude cold and hard, but said, “You know in your heart whether there is any benefit.”

    The father of the mistress harming the child of the original wife, did that need a reason? Was there no benefit?

    “The evidence for Xia Zhongming’s matter is basically conclusive now. This matter involves a wide range, and the military and the Imperial Star Public Security Bureau, and even His Majesty the Emperor, attach great importance to this case. Moreover, Major General Ruan Yang personally filed a lawsuit against Xia Zhongming. If you are not satisfied, go to the Emperor and appeal.”

    The patrol officer coldly left a sentence and directly dragged Xia Zhongming away in the manner of treating a criminal without saying anything else.

    Ruan Xi watched Xia Zhongming being taken away, his face suddenly turned pale, and he almost fainted to the ground.

    Since Ruan Tang dared to rush to the Ruan family in such a rampant manner, he had a certain amount of confidence and measures in his heart, and he had also predicted that someone would take advantage of this matter to attack him.

    Faced with people maliciously setting the rhythm, questioning him, and smearing him, he did not respond with a word.

    But a few hours later, Xia Ruzhi’s deeds of climbing into Ruan Ming’s bed, causing Tang Yun to die with hatred, and ill-treating Ruan Tang since childhood were all exposed on Xiaoluo.

    The entire story was clear and clear, and the people on the Internet with thinking ability, conscience, and empathy were angry.

    They had long felt that Ruan Tang’s attack on Xia Ruzhi must have been due to grievances, but they didn’t know what the specific grievances were, and they felt that Ruan Tang was too fierce.

    But after understanding what Xia Ruzhi had done back then, they felt that Ruan Tang was not only not fierce or crazy at all, but even not ruthless enough in hitting Xia Ruzhi.

    They had never seen a woman more vicious and disgusting than Xia Ruzhi.

    “I said, Ruan Tang hits people so hard, with his current status, there must be a cause and effect. It must be due to a reason. Damn it, this bitch is so vicious. Someone was still saying that Ruan Tang was cruel and sympathizing with her this morning… I don’t think Ruan Tang is cruel at all. If someone harmed my mother like this, I would not only hit her, I might even chop her up…”

    “WTF, the son is like that, and the mother is like that. I don’t know what sins Ruan Tang’s family has committed to encounter such a vicious mistress and her son.”

    “I really don’t know what those people who were maliciously setting the rhythm this morning, saying that Ruan Tang was not worthy to be the chairman of the Omega Protection Association, were thinking. Could they be the cleaning dogs of the vicious mistress stepmother? I felt that the trending topic was wrong. Private grievances are private grievances. What does it mean to say that someone’s work must be unqualified just because of private grievances?”

    “Excuse me, after such a thing happened, Ruan Tang is already very kind just by hitting her. Can those dogs who smear people with violent tendencies go away? The biological mother was harmed like this. If he can still endure it and still be a gentleman to the enemy, using words instead of actions, I would think he is hopelessly unworthy to be the chairman of the Omega Protection Association!”

    “Those who were setting the rhythm this morning can all get lost.”

    “I feel so sorry for Ruan Tang. He is also an Omega. What kind of people and things has he encountered?”

    Soon after, the news that Ruan Tang’s stepmother Xia Ruzhi’s father was suspected of bribing officials and murdering an Imperial Major General also made it to the top of the trending topics…

    As the youngest major general of the empire, the face of the Imperial military, Ruan Yang had quite a few fans.

    Although in recent years, because of Ruan Yang’s accident and coma, his fans had all gone into hiding, only silently remembering this major general, who was praised for having the looks of a male model and outstanding abilities, on Ruan Yang’s personal forum.

    But after this news came out, all of Ruan Yang’s fans exploded…

    They had never thought that Ruan Yang’s accident was not an accident, but was murdered. Ruan Yang was an Imperial Major General with a military rank. He was harmed like this in the military, which showed the viciousness and darkness of the Xia family, who could cover the sky with one hand.

    The safety of a noble and a major general could not be guaranteed. What about their common people?

    Murdering a major general was a serious crime.

    In an instant, the entire population of the empire and Ruan Yang’s past fans exploded. Many people even jointly launched a petition demanding that the country and the court severely punish the Xia family and follow the clues to find out their umbrella, so that the heroic soldiers who fought bloody battles for the empire would not be wronged and disheartened.

    “Disgusting, it can’t be more disgusting. They dared to attack an Imperial Major General. It shows the darkness of the upper class.”

    “I was wondering why Major General Ruan Yang had an accident. I thought it was jealousy from heaven. I didn’t expect it to be man-made… Tang Yun, the original wife of Ruan Ming, was really miserable. The children were also miserable. Fortunately, the major general had a younger brother, Ruan Tang, who did not give up on pursuing the truth, so that he could expose everything! May the scumbag and bitch both die.”

    “Severe punishment, severe punishment, and everyone involved in this matter must be found out!”

    All the events were put together, clearly and clearly. Ruan Tang didn’t even need to stand up and say anything. Just by presenting the truth, public opinion naturally stood on his side.

    What Xia Ruzhi and her family did was too vicious, too horrifying, and broke through the public’s moral bottom line.

    Even some Saint Marys, who firmly believed in victim-blaming and felt that Ruan Tang was not clean and innocent, could no longer say anything to slander Ruan Tang and defend Xia Ruzhi’s family in the face of conclusive evidence.

    Everyone deeply hated the behavior of Xia Ruzhi’s family, who were above the law and regarded the law as nothing, and hoped that the empire could thoroughly investigate this matter.

    The person who wanted to use this matter to remove Ruan Tang from the position of chairman of the Omega Protection Association not only achieved nothing, but also lost his wife and children, and instead gained Ruan Tang a lot of sympathy and won higher public support.

    As the incident further fermented, Xia Ruzhi and her daughter also became synonymous with ‘vicious bitch’ and ‘being able to reach the sky’.

    People felt vicious and disgusting when they mentioned these two names, and many people with the same names as them were ashamed and ran to the resident personal information management system to change their names.

    This matter involved a wide range, and even Ruan Ming was scolded as a ‘scumbag’ and ‘disgusting’. Some people even thought that he was an accomplice of Xia Ruzhi and ran to his Xingbo every day to curse him to die, saying that he was an ungrateful and white-eyed wolf.

    Many people also jointly boycotted the Ruan family’s industries in various industries, and the calls became higher and higher.

    In less than a few days, the stock of the Ruan family’s group in various industries fell by 15%.

    The entire Ruan family was in chaos.

    Ruan Zhuoxu’s wife was also a noblewoman from a famous family. She was arrogant and noble. When she married Ruan Zhuoxu, she had disliked Xia Ruzhi’s status as a mistress who had taken the place of the original wife. However, considering that Xia Ruzhi was already Madam Ruan and Ruan Zhuoxu was the heir of the Ruan family, she decided to marry him.

    After Xia Ruzhi and the Xia family had accidents one after another, she couldn’t stand being associated with Xia Ruzhi all day long and being scolded every day, and she was ashamed to have such a mother-in-law.

    She decisively used her family’s status to force Ruan Zhuoxu to divorce her, took the child away, and changed the child’s surname to hers at the first time of the divorce.
