The stunning slight of Ling Tianya lit up the eyes of everyone present.
Except for one person. Ruan Lijia lowered her eyes. How was Ling Tianya looking so different now compared to the depleted woman who had been discharged from the hospital this morning?
Ruan Lijia looked at Ling Tianya, whose face was rosy and shiny and eyes were brilliant with no trace of sickness and sadness
Her hair was done in a classic updo while she was wearing a long, scarlet red dress, which made her look beautiful and elegant.
Traditionally, the color of scarlet red symbolized the legitimate wife. Ruan Lijia’s eyes reflected secret rage. By wearing such a red dress, was Ling Tianya trying to say that even if she became Ruan Zeyan’s woman, she would never be legitimate?
The three elders, Ruan Guofu, third Mrs. Ruan, and the others all lowered their gaze after seeing such a stunning Ling Tianya.
Obviously, their thoughts were the same as that of Ruan Lijia. The reason that Ling Tianya was dressed so beautifully, especially in a red dress, was to put pressure on them and tell them that Ling Tianya was the legitimate wife that Ruan Zeyan had married.
When Ruan Qishan saw Ling Tianya like this, the expression on his face changed. He seemed to think that she was being insensible and was embarrassing him.
Ling Tianya took the reactions of these people in, but it didn’t seem to bother her. She smiled and exchanged a look with Madame Ruan, the emotion of which only the two of them knew.
Wang Yazhi reacted differently from everyone else. She looked at Ling Tianya and shed tears of distress.
In Wang Yazhi’s view, Ling Tianya was doing this to make her final strike. She pitied her Yaya.
In the entire room, only Wang Yazhi showed any sympathy in her eyes. The way Ling Tianya looked at her turned softer too.
Then, fourth grandfather broke the silence with discontent, “I had asked people to call you earlier, and it took you such a long time to come down. You made all of us elders wait for you here. Where are your manners?”
Fifth grandfather followed, “I agree. How rude!”
“Based on these manners of yours, how could you be the female master of the Ruan Family?” Seventh grandfather chimed in.
Ruan Qishan looked unhappy. He appreciated Ling Tianya’s brain and sympathized with Ling Tianya’s past experience, but it didn’t mean that he would indulge Ling Tianya to do whatever she pleased.
As his fourth uncle had said, the elders were in the big living room and Ling Tianya should have come immediately. However, not only did she arrive late, she was wearing a red dress, which was clearly to provoke the elders.
Seeing that the elders were annoyed by Ling Tianya, Ruan Lijia smiled smugly. She thought if Ling Tianya was already despised like this right now, when she got pregnant with Zeyan brother’s child in the future, Ling Tianya would not even have a foothold in the Ruan Family.
Humph! Ling Tianya, all you can do right now is wear a red dress to make yourself feel better. A woman who can’t have children is worth nothing in the Ruan Family!
All these years, the big grandma was living a shiny life on the outside, but secretly she had to deal with the distress caused by her own grandmother. When Ruan Lijia thought about that, she was pleased inside and the expression on her face relaxed.
Ling Tianya ignored the persecution from the three grandfathers and instead laid her eyes on the smug face of Ruan Lijia. Her red lips moved slowly. “Miss Lijia has not answered my question. What kind of person are you?”
Ruan Lijia didn’t expect Ling Tianya to bother to go after her at this point. So Ruan Lijia smiled sweetly and said in a cute voice, “Well, sister-in-law, the three grandfathers are talking to you. You didn’t say a word to the three grandfathers and instead asked me a question. Why?”
Ruan Lijia’s words made the faces of the three elders and Ruan Qishan even more mad.
Ling Tianya didn’t take any of the reprimand from the elders seriously!
