Chapter 401: Is This Still Miss Ling
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Liu Zhuang did not have the subtlety of Old Liu. He took his gla.s.s of water and gulped it down.
Old Liu watched Liu Zhuang chugging the water and had a slightly disgusted look on his face. “Don’t choke!”
When Old Liu said that, Liu Zhuang actually choked. His face became red from coughing.
Old Liu grabbed the cup from Liu Zhuang and scolded, “Didn’t I tell you to have some dignity? You can’t even handle a cup of water!”
Liu Zhuang felt that the scolding was uncalled for. What was wrong with him drinking a gla.s.s of water? Besides, he’d asked them for water, and they’d brought it. What was the matter?
Liu Zhuang made an audible sound when he stared at Ling Tianya. He felt that the water he’d drank tasted sweet. He couldn’t help but fantasize about what married life with Ling Tianya would be like: this woman was.h.i.+ng his feet, giving him a ma.s.sage, and having his baby…
Liu Zhuang chuckled out loud as he got lost in his daydream, looking like an idiot.
Ling Tianya originally didn’t want to bother with them. The reason she let them in was so that they wouldn’t make a scene at the gate. Plus, she wanted Ling Tao and Madam Ling to see what Liu Fen’s family was like when they returned.
So, Ling Tianya grabbed a book from the study and asked the servant to watch the three people in the living room before she headed to the yard to read her book on the bench outside.
When they saw Ling Tianya walking out with a book without a word to them, Old Liu and his wife became xasperated.
Liu Zhuang was anxious too and pulled on Old Liu. “Uncle! Uncle! She is leaving!”
Old Liu stood up abruptly with a p.i.s.sed off expression on his face. “You stop right there!”
Ling Tianya paused, looking back and pointing to herself. “Are you talking to me?”
“Yes, you, who else?”
The servants of the Ling Family all looked nervous. They thought, did Miss Liu’s father have a death wish? How dare he talk to Miss Ling like that?
Ling Tianya was also a bit surprised. She didn’t expect that Liu Fen was an idiot or that her parents were also brainless.
Well, the apple didn’t fall far from the tree.
If this was any other day, Ling Tianya would not have tolerated them. If she could have Liu Fen’s teeth beaten out, she could have them taken care of as well.
But she thought that Ling Tao and Madame Ling would be back soon, and she wanted them to see this.
So, Ling Tianya lowered her posture and voice and said with a little embarra.s.sment. “Sorry, I am a little shy, I’m not very good at meeting strangers.”
Ling Tianya’s words and behavior shocked the servants.
Was it Miss Ling who said those words?
Big Guy and Small Guy, who were standing in the shadows, were surprised too. They looked at each other and made a face.
Miss Ling? Shy? What a joke.
But the reality was that Ling Tianya did say those words with a straight face, and the timid look she was putting on was quite convincing, as if she was really sheltered young lady who was not used to talking to strangers.
Old Liu believed Ling Tianya and eased his brow. But he still talked like an ent.i.tled elderly. “Are we strangers? We are Liu Fen’s family. Do I have to tell you who Liu Fen is?”
Ling Tianya shook her head promptly. “No need. I know who she is.”
Old Liu was satisfied by Ling Tianya’s pleasant att.i.tude. “In this case, shouldn’t you treat us better?”
“Oh, okay!” Ling Tianya replied agreeably and walked into the kitchen with the servants.
Liu Zhuang was mesmerized by Ling Tianya’s timid and shy demeanor and suddenly felt super h.o.r.n.y. “Uncle, this woman is too tempting!”
