“Ling Tianya, where are you going with my son?”
Hearing Ruan Zeyan’s words, everyone was shocked and dumbfounded. They were puzzled. Who was the son that Ruan Zeyan was speaking of?
The three grandfathers looked at each other with wide eyes.
Ruan Guofu, who was on the floor, also lifted his eyes and looked at Ruan Zeyan in astonishment. Ling Tianya was now infertile, so where was the son coming from?
Ruan Qishan and Wang Yazhi were also confused and waited for Ruan Zeyan to continue speaking.
Ling Tianya carefully studied everyone’s reaction before speaking. “Why are you so certain that it is a son? What if it is a daughter? Do you value males more than females?” she said to Ruan Zeyan.
Ruan Zeyan smiled wickedly as he looked at the woman in his arms. “They all say that a daughter is like a tiny, considerate cotton-padded jacket, therefore she will be obedient and sensible. This baby hasn’t even been born, yet he has already been tormenting people, so he must be a son.”
Ling Tianya struck Ruan Zeyan’s chest. “You and your false reasoning!”
“Wait!” Ruan Qishan could no longer bear it. He pointed at Ling Tianya, his eyes wide and asked, “What are you guys talking about? What son? What daughter?” This was the question that was on everyone’s minds. Everyone pricked up their ears, their eyes staring at Ruan Zeyan and Ling Tianya.
Ling Tianya smiled and nestled up in Ruan Zeyan’s embrace without a word. His hand stroked her shoulder, and there was a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth as he spoke to Ruan Qishan and Wang Yazhi with the languidity and aura of a member of the royal family. “Congratulations, you are about to become grandparents.”
Hearing Ruan Zeyan’s response, Ruan Qishan and Wang Yazhi were dumbfounded with disbelief written all over their faces.
A collective gasp sounded in the living room before it was once again silent. The clan members looked at each other. The three elders also had pale faces. What had Ruan Zeyan just said? Ruan Qishan and Wang Yazhi were about to become grandparents? Was Ling Tianya is pregnant? Surely she had just had a miscarriage, and hadn’t the drug rendered her infertile? What was going on?
Ruan Qishan was the first to react. He took a couple of steps forward until he was in front of Ruan Zeyan and with all seriousness said, “Tell me exactly what is going on. Is Ling Tianya pregnant?”
Ruan Zeyan nodded. “That’s correct.”
Hearing such a confident response, everyone’s faces changed.
“How is that possible? Ling Tianya clearly ate the supplements I supplied to her. They were all drugged!” Mandy refused to believe it and hysterically denied Ruan Zeyan’s claim. “Also, she was bleeding so much that day. The doctor said that the child was not protected and that her womb has been damaged and thus she is now infertile. How could there be a child in her womb now?”
Mandy didn’t believe it. She wouldn’t believe it even if it was beaten into her! Even if Ling Tianya had exposed the truth and had saved her from Ruan Guofu, she had personally drugged the supplements and had seen Wang Yazhi take them up to her everyday. Ling Tianya had taken them for a number of days. They must have affected her. “You’re lying!” Mandy pointed at Ling Tianya. “You must be lying!”
Ruan Zeyan looked at Mandy with fiercely cold and emotionless eyes, as if he was looking at a corpse.
Mandy was shaken by Ruan Zeyan’s gaze and held her hand still as she stood there, drenched in cold sweat. She was scared and her chest hurt. Ruan Zeyan had never looked at her that way before. Before, he was cold towards her, eminent and unapproachable. She had been captivated by that Ruan Zeyan. However, the way he was looking at her now chilled her to the bone, and made Mandy extremely frightened.
