Chapter 556: Won’t Allow Them to Be Alone
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ruan Qishan and Ruan Zeyan were discussing the E Country project in the study. When they heard that the old lady from the Ling Family was here, they also came to the living room.
When she saw that the whole Ruan Family was there, Madame Ling started to feel a little uncomfortable. She originally just wanted to see Ling Tianya and ask her to convince Ling Tao not to send her to the countryside.
But now, in front of the Ruan Family, she couldn’t say anything and her wrinkled face was turning red in embarra.s.sment.
Originally, she thought that if Ling Tianya asked why she suddenly came to see her, or if the conversation went slightly that direction, she could just go with it and talk to her about her dilemma.
However, from the very beginning, Ling Tianya just sat there, only answering the questions the old lady asked her without saying an extra word. Inside, Madame Ling was quite p.i.s.sed off.
Ling Tianya knew that, according to Madame Ling’s character, she would never come here if she didn’t have anything to ask of her. But regardless how Madame Ling was trying to draw words from her mouth, Ling Tianya would not budge. Madame Ling could do nothing but get more and more irritated.
“Look at you, coming here in person. Tianya is pregnant so she is the queen of our family now. We will take great care of her. She was just discharged from the hospital earlier today, so we want her to rest at home for a couple of days. In a few days, Zeyan will take her back to the Ling residence to see you. Did Yaya not send someone to tell your family?” w.a.n.g Yazhi asked with a smile.
Ling Tianya nodded. “I have already asked Big Guy to go back and tell them. Maybe Grandma was too worried about me, so she couldn’t wait to see me.”
They had been notified, yet Madame Ling still made her way here, so there must have been something else that was the matter. However, Ling Tianya just would not ask. Words came up to the lips of Madame Ling, and she had to swallow them back, her eyes wide.
Madame Ruan looked at Madame Ling’s face, which looked like she had eaten a fly and showed her contempt. Everyone was well aware of what kind of person that old woman was. How could she be so kind to come to see Ling girl?
w.a.n.g Yazhi did not think so much and really thought that Madame Ling was worried about her granddaughter. So she made her a promise, “Grandmother-in-law, please don’t worry. I have always treated Yaya as my biological daughter, and my mother-in-law likes her way more than me. Even when Yaya was not pregnant, the whole family was all over her. Now that she is pregnant, she is absolutely our treasure.”
Madame Ling found w.a.n.g Yazhi’s words fake. She wouldn’t believe that any family would treat a daughter-in-law as well as their own daughter.
She realized that the Ruan Family had made up their mind to keep them company and would not give her the opportunity to be alone with Ling Tianya. Madame Ling said in a disappointed voice, “Tianya, this is the first time that I’ve come here. Maybe you can show me around the house?”
Madame Ruan still remembered the last time Yu Meizi came to stir up Ling Tianya’s emotions, causing her to have abdominal pain. So, this time there was no way she would let Ling Tianya be alone with Madame Ling.
“Well, I haven’t strolled around the house in a long time myself. Why don’t I accompany you and let Ling girl rest?”
Madame Ruan’s words had ended any hope that Madame Ling might have had. She looked extremely uncomfortable. She had no intention of strolling around the house, let alone doing so with Madame Ruan.
Then she said with a twisted expression on her face. “Oh, I just remembered that there are still some things at home that I need to take care of. Since Tianya is doing well now, I am relieved. I’ll just go home.”
“So, you don’t want to see our house?” asked Madame Ruan, laughing.
“No, I’m good,” said Madame Ling, grinding her teeth.
