Chapter 163: So Very Ugly (3)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Looking at the West Lake Fish in Vinegar Gravy in Ling Tianya’s bowl, and all the other sweet and sour dishes on the table, Guan Meiyi suddenly remembered the first production day of the Hunting Allure, where Ruan Zeyan treated all the crew with takeout from Ming Xuan. The dishes in that meal were all sweet and sour flavored too. At the time, she thought that Ruan Zeyan did that for her and felt very loved, but she realized it was all for Ling Tianya! It turned out that she was just a joke to Ruan Zeyan, and Guan Meiyi felt like her whole body was on fire.

From a young age, Ling Tianya had always thought that eating should be a matter of physical and mental enjoyment. If you dined in a less enjoyable environment, then it was not eating, it was just business.

There was no doubt that Ling Tianya was not enjoying the current dining environment. Especially because she had to deal with the look her aunt and cousin were giving her, and the reluctant look on Wang Yazhi’s face.

Madam Ruan didn’t eat much herself, but she kept putting food in Ling Tianya’s bowl. She derived a lot of pleasure by watching Ling Tianya eat, with a big smile.

Ruan Zeyan was pleased to see such a harmonious relationship between his grandmother and Ling Tianya. He eased the serious look on his face and talked with Ling Tianya and Madam Ruan from time to time.

“What are your plans next?” Ruan Qishan suddenly asked Ling Tianya.

Everyone stopped, what did Ruan Qishan mean by that? Ling Qi seemed particularly nervous. Was Ruan Qishan trying to make the decision about the marriage between Ling Tianya and Ruan Zeyan at the dinner table?

What about Meiyi? Was there no hope left for her?

Guan Meiyi clung to the chopsticks and began to feel uneasy.

Ruan Zeyan and Madam Ruan looked over at Ling Tianya expectantly, waiting for her answer.


Ling Tianya swallowed the fish that Madam Ruan had just served her, and said, “I am preparing for my next book. I’ll probably concentrate on writing that book next.”

Ruan Qishan intended to ask about the plans between Ling Tianya and Ruan Zeyan, but Ling Tianya answered about her personal plan for work. He looked at his son Ruan Zeyan with great curiosity.

Ruan Zeyan answered coldly, “Next, we plan to get married.”

Madam Ruan’s wrinkled face was full of joy. On the other hand, some people at the table found it really hard to be happy. Guan Meiyi’s face looked uptight and pale. Mouth twitching, Ling Qi looked like she was about to lose it.

Wang Yazhi glanced at the mother and daughter with great sadness and said to Ruan Zeyan, “Zeyan! Do you really have to say that right now?

Madam Ruan looked coldly at Guan Meiyi and Ling Qi. “When should he say it if not now? They are not strangers anyway, they are the aunt and cousin of my future grand daughter-in-law.”

“Mom, but Meiyi, she…”

“She what? Her cousin is getting married, shouldn’t she be happy?” Madam Ruan side-eyed at Guan Meiyi, not missing the hate in her eyes.

Sorry, I don’t feel very well. I better go home now.” Guan Meiyi got up and left the table with her head down.

“Meiyi! Wait for me!” Ling Qi followed and stood up. She didn’t act as subtle as Guan Meiyi and left with a visibly angry face.

“Mom, you know how Meiyi felt about Zeyan…” Wang Yazhi looked at Ling Tianya and paused. “Can you not be so hard on her?”

“Hmm!” The old lady snorted. “If people say that you don’t have a brain, you deserve it. You knew that Miss Ling was here, why did you ask them to stay for dinner?”

“I…” Wang Yazhi groaned. She regretted it too, because she managed to make both sides unhappy.

“Okay, let’s cut it.” Ruan Qishan was finally annoyed.

In such an awkward time, Ruan Zeyan still acted normal and kept putting food in Ling Tianya bowl and telling her to eat more, as if he had not been affected by anything at all.
