Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Just as the owner called the insurance company, Ling Tianya brought a chair over for the old lady to sit on.
“You’re not young anymore, and you came driving out on your own? Your family’s okay with that?” Ling Tianya looked at the old lady, reaching out to smooth out her messy hair.
The old lady had time to recover from the whole ordeal, her brain clearing up too. She stared at Ling Tianya unblinkingly, letting her arrange her hair however she wanted to. “I just wanted to come out to buy some things, and didn’t want to trouble anyone else, so I came alone … I’m old, I create trouble everywhere, and now I’ve created more messes for my grandson to handle…”
“Don’t worry, I’m sure he wouldn’t blame you. How are you? Do you need to visit the hospital?” Ling Tianya carefully checked the old lady over, the car was wrecked, and so was the hotel’s door and wall, but there was not a single scratch on the old lady!
Madam Ruan shook her head, “I’m alright, I’m perfectly fine.”
“That’s good, if you feel uncomfortable you have to tell me, okay?”
Seeing the look of worry on Ling Tianya’s face, Mdm Ruan chuckled heartily, “Young lady, you’re so kind. There were so many people watching, but you were the only one that stepped out to help me!”
Ling Tianya smiled, not saying much. She didn’t feel that she did anything spectacular, nor did she help the old lady with anything, she merely just reminded them of a simple common fact.
“Young lady, how can I address you?”
“Miss Ling is fine.”
“Oh…” Mdm Ruan’s eyes suddenly lit up at Ling Tianya, “Young lady, are you married?”
Ling Tianya paused, what a cute woman, she still had the thought to ask her about that at such a time?
“No.”
“That’s great!”
Ling Tianya remained silent.
On the other end, the owner had just finished his call with the insurance company, and they mentioned that they would get in touch with the grandson as soon as possible. Not too long later, the owner had received a call from a foreign number.
The caller had expressed that he was the old lady’s grandson, and that he would rush over as soon as he could. Before he got there, they were not to do anything rude to the old lady, or they would have to bear the consequences themselves.
The owner still had wanted to retort back with all the anger in him, but the other man’s tone was way too cold. He couldn’t get his words out.
Looking at the old lady in tattered clothes, she didn’t seem like someone with a powerful background!
The owner thought that the grandson must have been bluffing, but he didn’t threaten the old lady again, he just wanted someone to compensate him for his losses.
Ling Tianya had wanted to accompany the old lady for a while more, but Zhang Heng had been rus.h.i.+ng her to talk about the script. Since the owner had gotten into contact with the old lady’s grandson, there was really not much reason for her to stay.
“Granny, I need to be leaving. Your grandson will be here soon, so he will be able to take care of you. I have an appointment I must get to.”
Seeing that Ling Tianya was going to leave, the old lady hurried to tug onto her. “Young lady, just a while more? My grandson will be here soon, let me introduce the both of you. I can repay you properly then.”
Ling Tianya looked at her watch, seeing that she was cutting it too close, she could only smile apologetically, “Granny, I really can’t stay longer, I still have to work. Don’t worry, the owner won’t do anything to you.” Ling Tianya looked at the owner then, coldly asking, “Right?”
The owner’s face changed, pinching his lips, he kept quiet.
“See, he won’t threaten you anymore. I’m really in a rush, goodbye!”
“… Young lady… Just a while more…”
Ling Tianya just picked up her bag, rus.h.i.+ng towards her car. The old lady watched Ling Tianya as she left in her car, committing the car plate number to her memory.
“She couldn’t even wait? My grandson’s a looker…” The old lady pouted, mumbling to herself.
Just then, a black Maybach rushed to the scene, stopping right by the door of the trashed restaurant.
“Look, my grandson is here!” Seeing her grandson’s car, Madam Ruan stood up arrogantly, pointing at the Maybach.
The owner was stupefied, internally questioning whether the lady’s grandson was a chauffeur for some rich family…
Ruan Zeyan hurriedly opened his car to get out, and the first thing he saw was the ruined car and the wrecked restaurant. Shock barely hidden on his face, he rushed in to see his grandmother wearing their maid’s uniform.
Ruan Zeyan’s brows were furrowed so deep that he could literally suffocate a fly in between them. He glared at her with a look that could freeze over a volcano, Madam Ruan laughed, “You brat, why did you come so late?! You missed an amazing lady!”
