The dinner was eaten in an awkward atmosphere. After working out the details of what Xu Cheng’s job would be, Grandmother in law’s elder sister and her party were all quiet and did not say anything else. This meal had shocked them too much, and they could not accept what they had found out.
After dinner, Grandmother in law’s elder sister returned to her room. Originally, Madame Ruan wanted to take a walk with her in the courtyard but in the end, Grandmother in law’s elder sister said that she was feeling unwell and returned to her room.
During mealtime, Huang Ying had intentionally kept looking at Ruan Qishan. However, all of Ruan Qishan’s attention was on the splendid Wang Yazhi, and he did not notice Huang Ying’s resentful gaze.
After dinner, Ruan Qishan accompanied Wang Yazhi back to their room. Upon seeing Wang Yazhi, whose smile was like a flower, Huang Ying’s heart felt aggrieved. As expected, a woman who is nourished by a man was different from a woman like her, who lived as a widow all year round.
Even if Wang Yazhi didn’t put on any makeup, she was still rosy. However, Huang Ying was already clearly elderly, her body thin and her skin limp.
Every time she thought of this, Huang Ying would hate Madame Ruan. Now, she hated Madame Ruan even more.
She blamed all of her unluckiness on Madame Ruan for preventing her from marrying Ruan Qishan. If she had married Ruan Qishan, then she would definitely have lived happily.
She would also have an outstanding son like Ruan Zeyan and a talented daughter in law like Ling Tianya.
She would be accompanied by people wherever she went, and she would be able to squander money however she wanted. She could live without any worries and would be spoiled by her husband’s love every day.
Everything that Wang Yazhi had should belong to her. Whenever Huang Ying felt aggrieved, she wouldn’t think of the fact that she had neither Wang Yazhi’s beauty nor Wang Yazhi’s kindness or purity.
Even if she had married Ruan Qishan in the past and had really been happy, would she have everything that Wang Yazhi had today?
First of all, she definitely would not have a son like Ruan Zeyan and therefore, she definitely would not have a daughter in law like Ling Tianya.
However, how could Huang Ying think of these things right now? Right now, her mind was filled with unwillingness and complaints. Wang Yazhi had snatched her husband, snatched her son, snatched her daughter in law and snatched her wealth and easy lifestyle.
In the end, Xu Cheng agreed with Ling Tianya that she would go and report to Zhi Ya Entertainment in a week’s time. At that time, Ling Tianya would take her there personally.
After returning to the floor that her room was on, Xu Cheng did not immediately return to her room but went to Grandmother in law’s elder sister’s room. Huang Ying was also there.
“How was it? What did Ling Tianya say?” Huang Ying asked.
“We decided that she would take me to Zhi Ya Entertainment in a week’s time.” Xu Cheng was a bit depressed, and her voice was no longer as confident or as cold as before.
Today, Xu Cheng’s ego had been strongly hit. She had always placed herself at a certain high point. Her grandfather and her father were both college professors. She had used their reputation to gain a lot of courtesy during her process in college and in getting her master’s degree.
Plus, since her family had a literary reputation and were a family of professors, there would be many of her grandfather’s and father’s students who would come and visit every year. There were also many among them that wanted to date her.
However, Xu Cheng’s sights were exceptionally high. She thought that those people were all ordinary folks and did not match up to her.
Gradually, because of her coldness, no one else wanted to date her. She had studied for two years before she was able to get her master’s. After graduation, she had stayed at home for two years and did not go out in search of a job. She thought her educational background would make it easy for her to find a high salary position.
Ruan Zeyan’s words today had struck her deeply.
