Sweet Love 1V1: Spoiled by The Executive - Chapter 256

Chapter 256: Embarrassing Her

Not only was Madam Ling surprised, so were Ling Tao and Qu Wan. During the Yuan Teng Corporation anniversary dinner, even though they knew that Ling Tianya knew Madam Ruan, they had never thought that even Ruan Qishan would approve of Ling Tianya.

Unknowingly, Ling Tianya had gotten into such close relationships with the Ruan family, so close that they couldn’t stand anyone saying anything negative about her.

A dark look passed over Qu Wan’s eyes. Ling Tianya certainly was a high-level vixen; she was able to steal away the entire Ruan family’s hearts in such a short time. If she didn’t get rid of her, she would never have a good life again.

Madam Ling chuckled awkwardly, “So it’s your hard work. I thought too much about it, thinking that it was our Tianya that was inconsiderate, sorry for the embarrassment.”

“Hngh!” Madam Ruan huffed. “The embarrassment is just secondary. If the two kids get married in the future, everyone will be family. I’m just curious, if you’re this harsh on the lass in public, then aren’t you treating her worse at home?”

Madam Ruan turned to Ling Tianya, her expression one of pain, as though saying, “Poor child, since your grandmother doesn’t love you, then I will!”

What Madam Ruan did was like giving Madam Ling a light slap on the face. She could feel the fiery burn on her cheeks.

“What are you saying? Tianya is my granddaughter, why would I treat her badly?” Madam Ling smiled stiffly, but she looked at Ling Tianya threateningly.

Ling Tianya could only smile, Madam Ling was still threatening her.

“Granny, don’t worry.” Ling Tianya smiled as she reassured Madam Ruan. “My grandma is just a little stricter, but not mean.”

Ling Tianya said that because she didn’t want the awkward situation to continue on, not because she was afraid of Madam Ling.

Madam Ruan huffed, as though she didn’t believe it at all. Her tone sarcastic and she said, “Lass, you’re just too kind. It’s alright, you’ll be a Ruan soon, and I’ll make sure you’ll be the most spoiled in our family!”

“Alright, I know you’ll spoil me.” Ling Tianya and Madam Ruan shared an amiable smile, and the air in the private room cleared up and became more harmonious.

Ling Tao looked at the interaction in between Madam Ruan and Ling Tianya in shock. The feeling in his heart was a little complicated. He was glad that his daughter got along amazingly with her future mother-in-law, but he was frustrated seeing how his own mother treated his own daughter. His mother was his daughter’s biological grandmother, but their relationship was leagues away from Madam Ruan and his daughter’s.

That was his failure as a son and as a father…

Madam Ling’s lips twitched. Her face was bitter, but she did not say anything else.

Right then, the staff brought in the food. The food was extremely colorful and plentiful. There weren’t too many of them present, but the huge table was completely covered in food.

Ruan Qishan took the initiative to stand up and pour some alcohol for Ling Tao. Ling Tao jumped to his feet as fast as he could, both of his hands holding onto the cup. “Ah, how can I burden Director Ruan to pour my drink for me?”

Ruan Qishan’s eyes sharpened. “Future in-laws, is there something wrong about me pouring your drink for you? You raised a great daughter after all, and we are utterly grateful for you marrying your daughter into our family!”

Ruan Qishan’s words were more than Ling Tao could handle. Oddly, what he said had settled a huge ripple of guilt into Ling Tao’s heart. Ling Tianya’s accomplishments were absolutely not because of his work as a father after all.

Ruan Qishan and Ling Tao downed their drinks, and Ruan Qishan returned to his seat. “Come, we’re all family, don’t be shy. Let’s talk while we eat.”

Qu Wan looked at Ling Tianya’s cup that held water, teasing her. “Yaya, on such a joyous day, how can you only drink water? Here, Auntie will pour some for you.”

The moment Qu Wan’s hand touched Ling Tianya’s glass, the mouth of the glass was covered by Ruan Zeyan, coldly commanding, “She’s not drinking today.”
