Madame Ling sighed heavily. Since this was her weak spot, she had to endure no matter how ugly Liu Fen’s behaviour was.
“It wasn’t that I didn’t want to help you, but things got out of hand today. If I didn’t stop you and you spoke the truth, Ling Tao would know that I was trying to drug him and force him to sleep with you. Do you think he would still trust his mother in the future if he’d found out?
If Ling Tao doesn’t trust me anymore, what good is it for you? For better or for worse, Ling Tao still listens to me and believes what I say.
If I say that I like you and want to keep you here in the Ling Family, even if Ling Tao is not willing, he will do it for me!”
Listening to Madame Ling, Liu Fen gradually stopped crying. She sat on the floor and looked at the other woman. “Ma’am, then you go and talk to him right now. Let me go back.”
“Not now,” Madame Ling replied decisively.
“Why!” Liu Fen got mad and felt that Madame Ling was lying to her.
“This just happened, and Ling Tao is still angry. After two days, he will calm down and I will get you back in.”
Upon hearing that, Liu Fen nodded and asked, “Where am I going to live during these days?”
“I will give you some money to stay in the hotel!” Madame Ling handed a stack of money to Liu Fen. “You find a nearby hotel and I will meet you there tomorrow.”
Although reluctant, Liu Fen didn’t have a better plan. She took the money and left only wearing a large coat.
Watching Liu Fen leave, Madame Ling rubbed her temples in agony. What a terrible night. Thank goodness that Ruan Zeyan didn’t stay the night. If he had seen this drama, who knew what he would think about the Lings.
The next day, Madame Ling left early in the morning and went to the hotel to find Liu Fen.
After what had happened last night, Ling Tao didn’t sleep well. When he went to work in the morning, his eyes were still puffy with heavy dark circles around them.
When Ling Tianya got up, she was the only one left in the house.
At this time, at the front gates of the Ling residence, a couple in their sixties showed up with a 30-something-year old man.
Their clothes looked odd and they were carrying a few large bags stuffed to the brim. They stood at the gates, trying to look in.
“Uncle, are you sure this is it?” asked the man in his 30s.
Old Liu looked at the address in his hand and nodded. “Yes, it is right here!”
“This is the Ling residence! My goodness, it is huge!” The man looked amazed. “Sister Fen is a rich wife here, is that right?”
Old Liu had a wrinkly smile. “It’s here, it’s here!”
“What are you waiting for? Let’s go in!” The man couldn’t wait.
Old Liu grabbed the young man who was about to push the gate open. “Liu Zhuang, I have to warn tell you, it’s not like home here. When you talk, pay attention to your words. Make sure you are dignified and don’t embarra.s.s your sister Fen.”
Liu Zhuang patted his chest with great pride. “Don’t worry, I will not embarra.s.s sister Fen! But, uncle, don’t forget to tell her about my thing!”
Old Liu glared at Liu Zhuang. “I know, to find a wife for you. Don’t worry. Now that your sister Fen has made it big, she’ll take care of her brother!”
At this time, Old Liu’s wife opened her mouth. “I heard that this Ling Family has a daughter who is very pretty. If Liu Zhuang likes her, we should ask Fen to introduce this daughter to Liu Zhuang. Then, the two families can be even closer!”
“Aren’t the relations.h.i.+ps going to messy?” Old Liu disagreed.
“There is no blood relations.h.i.+p anyway. Who cares about seniority?” Old Liu’s wife said with joy.
