Sweet Love 1V1: Spoiled by The Executive - Chapter 1176

Chapter 1176: Mother-Daughter Bond（5）

Just as Ruan Zeyan entered the study, Ling Tianya was holding on to a necklace while on the phone with someone. She looked like she was having a good time.

“Alright, I can’t win. I’ll accept the necklace. Thank you, Chairwoman Li-”

Upon hearing who Ling Tianya mentioned, Ruan Zeyan raised his brows, surprised.

Ruan Zeyan was surprised that Ling Tianya was actually on the phone with Lina. He was even more surprised how close the two had gotten, despite only spending time alone with each other once.

“How’s the issue regarding your daughter?” Ling Tianya asked, concerned.

Lina hesitated. “We’ll be reviewing the DNA test on Monday.”

Throughout their conversation, Lina hadn’t mentioned that her supposed long-lost daughter was Xu Cheng. She knew of the relationship between Ling Tianya and Xu Cheng, as well as their ties with Ruan Zeyan. So, before anything was set in stone, Lina didn’t wish to present such information brazenly. If the DNA results revealed that Xu Cheng was really her daughter, then she would definitely reveal Xu Cheng’s true identity to everyone.

However, if that was not the case, then there was no need to cause unnecessary turmoil within the Ruan Family.

In fact, Lina and Xu Cheng had reached a consensus on this issue: not reveal anything to the Ruan Family before the DNA results were out. Lina was only doing it out of consideration for Ruan Zeyan, not wanting to cause too much trouble for him.

However, it wasn’t the same for Xu Cheng. She was afraid that the truth may be exposed if they spoke of the issue too soon. After all, Ling Tianya was Lina’s actual biological daughter, and she was also Ruan Zeyan’s wife. If the issue was spoken of too early, then the circumstances may change. Xu Cheng certainly didn’t want to lose out on assets worth thousands and billions or potentially lose her life.

Based on Lina’s tone, it seemed as if she had doubts about whether or not the lady she met was truly her daughter. After all, she seemed much less excited than when she got the news of her daughter back in the luxury shop.

“Oh, I see. If you require any assistance, do let me know. I may not be of help, but my husband sure will be.” Ling Tianya didn’t just say that out of courtesy but was offering help from the bottom of her heart.

“I got it. I won’t hesitate to contact you.”

As she hung up, Ruan Zeyan made his way over. Standing to Ling Tianya’s side, he intimately wound his hands over her neck before caressing her chin.

“Since when were you two so close?” Ruan Zeyan couldn’t help but ask.

Ever since Lina had made her first step in this city, she had approached everything with a war-like mentality. From the way she tried to sound out Ruan Zeyan, her way with words, and the skillful games she played. Undeniably, Lina was definitely one of the few within the industry that Ruan Zeyan had met who had skills that rivaled his.

Moreover, she was a woman. This made Ruan Zeyan treat her with greater reverence.

The relationship between him and Lina was one that was mutually restraining, as well as mutually suppressing. This tug-of-war was not one that had begun recently. Back when Ruan Zeyan had swept everyone away in the European market, Lina already had the intention of oppressing him. That was why she made a move on the Asian market, which Ruan Zeyan had a monopoly on.

Although they seemed to get along on the surface, they remain as rivals, refusing to give in.

Ruan Zeyan never would’ve thought that the woman, who he competed with for a long time, now got along so well with his wife.

Furthermore, she almost didn’t do anything today to annoy him, which made it impossible for Ruan Zeyan not to be surprised.

Ling Tianya held up the necklace that Lina gifted her, waving it in front of Ruan Zeyan. “I told you, this is how women deal with issues. Quick, praise me! Aren’t I amazing?”

“You are.” He bent over, giving Ling Tianya a quick peck on her lips.

Ruan Zeyan proceeded to pick up Ling Tianya from her seat, making his way to their bedroom.

“What are you doing?” Ling Tianya asked, surprised, quickly hooping her hands over his neck.

“Giving you a reward.”

Shocked, Ling Tianya remained silent.

This wasn’t the kind of reward she wanted!
