Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage - Chapter 438:

Chapter 438: Chapter 439: Just Wanted to Compliment Your Acting Skills

Rarely was Xia Weiwei not present.

The villa seemed very quiet.

When the butler saw her return, he respectfully said, “Young Miss is back. I will instruct the kitchen to prepare dinner.”

Xia Yangyang shook her head: “No need, where is Aunt Liu?”

“The mistress left in the afternoon and hasn’t returned yet.”

The butler hadn’t finished speaking.

When Liu Ruyan walked in.

Liu Ruyan was already dressed in a fur coat, looking energetic with a captivating air.

Seeing Xia Yangyang, she smiled faintly: “You came back so early today?”

Xia Yangyang turned around, her expression calm: “Aunt Liu… you look so beautiful today. Where did you go?”

Nonchalantly, Liu Ruyan replied: “Just meeting up with some of my sisters. Given your father’s current state, I’ve been worried. My friends are worried that I might do something rash, so they insisted on me going out to clear my mind.”

Xia Yangyang was truly in awe of Liu Ruyan’s ability to lie.

Without any hint of guilt, she spoke convincingly, every word and sentence.

If she hadn’t witnessed Liu Ruyan playing golf with Xi Jiaxin at the club that afternoon, Xia Yangyang might have believed her.

Xia Yangyang smiled: “Aunt Liu, I heard that twenty years ago, you were a famous actress in the film circle.”

Liu Ruyan’s facial expression changed slightly: “Why are you suddenly bringing this up?”

“Nothing really, just wanted to compliment your acting skills.”

Liu Ruyan’s facial expression changed slightly: “Yangyang, what exactly are you trying to say?”

“Today I had a meal with a friend at a high-end golf course restaurant, coincidentally, I think I saw Aunt Liu and your friend, but it wasn’t a group of sisters, it was a man.”

Xia Yangyang was too lazy to beat around the bush with Liu Ruyan, so she just broke it to her.

As expected, Liu Ruyan’s expression turned sour, unable to pretend to smile anymore.

Xia Yangyang slowly walked towards Liu Ruyan: “Aunt Liu, you have been married to my father for 10 years. Even though your rise in the past wasn’t exactly honorable, you and my father are both public figures in the entertainment industry. Now that my father is still critically sick, you’re hastily finding a new suitor. Isn’t that a bit shameful?”

Liu Ruyan’s facial expression changed slightly, but then she suddenly laughed: “Yangyang, I’m really confused, I had a chat with my sisters in the morning, indeed I met with an old friend for lunch. Yangyang, you really misunderstood, he is just an ordinary male friend of mine, why are you thinking so much?”

Xia Yangyang’s face darkened.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ruyan still denied it.

They were flirting so intimately back then, and even left together.

Xia Yangyang absolutely didn’t believe that the man was just an ordinary male friend of Liu Ruyan.

Liu Ruyan laughed: “After so many years in the entertainment industry, my connections are extensive. Especially since your father entrusted Starlight to me, I do have some business dealings with this man. Since he is here on a rare business trip, it makes sense for me to play the hostess on behalf of your father. I don’t know what you saw that made you misunderstand us. But keep in mind, we’ve been friends for 20 years, a little intimacy is only natural. Don’t start imagining things. Plus, your father is aware of my relationship with him. I’ve been married to your father for so many years, I know you never accepted me as your stepmother. But you can’t just throw baseless accusations on me. If this gets out, it would damage the reputation of the Xia Family and your father’s fame.”
