Ruan Zeyan leaned his long, slim body against the door. As Ling Tianya stepped outside, she finished talking to Gu Zhiqian.
To match Madame Ruan’s golden cheongsam, Wang Yazhi and Ling Tianya also wore cheongsams. All three of the dresses had been designed by Ling Tianya’s old friend and the Master of cheongsams, Madame Liang.
Ever since the day she heard Ling Tianya was pregnant, Madame Liang had started to design and create these cheongsams, so that Ling Tianya and the two elder members of the family could wear her cheongsams at the party for Tiny Rice Ball’s one month birthday. The dresses were a gift from Madame Liang.
Madame Ruan was the most respected elder in the Ruan family. Naturally, Madame Liang thought of a golden cheongsam. The golden embroidery of a phoenix spreading its wings on the cheongsam accentuated Madame Ruan’s grace
.
Wang Yazhi was wearing a navy silk cheongsam with patterns of blooming peonies. The shining silk with fire red blossoms made Wang Yazhi gorgeous and breathtaking.
However, what Ling Tianya was wearing was nothing like the cheongsams of Madame Ruan and Wang Yazhi. It was nothing bold but rather simple and elegant. It was a pinkish-grey color, with vivid designs of lotuses. Even though it was the simplest design, it took most of Madame Liang’s time and effort.
Ling Tianya had recovered well after giving birth. Though she weighed a little more than she had before, her curvier figure was even sexier, and her breasts had gone up by one cup size.
Ling Tianya had looked amazing in a cheongsam before. Now, after having a child, she had even more feminine grace.
Watching Ling Tianya walking towards him, Ruan Zeyan’s eyes deepened. He held her hand and said, “What should I do? I do not want anyone else to see you.”
“Why?” Ling Tianya widened her eyes.
Ruan Zeyan kissed her ruby lips and answered, “You are too beautiful, and others might get greedy.”
Ling Tianya smiled as she wiped the lip gloss from Ruan Zeyan’s lips. “What a coincidence. I was just about to say the same thing,” Ling Tianya said.
As she stood behind them with Tiny Rice Ball in her arms, Yu Luoluo was speechless.
“How about neither of you go, and you both stay here with me?” Yu Luoluo said grumpily. “Sister, Brother-in-law, do you have to act like that in front of a single person like me?”
Yu Luoluo held Tiny Rice Ball and continued to grumble. “Tiny Rice Ball, you are the best. Your mom and dad are too good at public displays of affection. It drives me crazy!”
Seeing Yu Luoluo in a temper, Ling Tianya covered her mouth as she chuckled.
“Who called you?” Ruan Zeyan asked.
“Gu Zhiqian. He said he could not make it to tonight’s party, but he said he would make sure his gifts arrived.”
Ruan Zeyan nodded without saying a word. The senior Mr. Gu had not been well recently. His time would probably come in a day or two. Gu Zhiqian had just taken over the ownership of the Gu Family business. He probably did not have the time or the inclination to attend a baby’s party.
All the guests had arrived. Ruan Guosheng stood in the crowd, with the Second Mrs. Ruan beside him. Witnessing the spectacular event, his eyes glimmered.
“Humph! Of course, it’s different. It was nothing like this when my baby turned one month old,” the Second Mrs. Ruan murmured. They had not brought their precious child here this time because he might do or say something inappropriate.
The child of the Ruan family and the son of Ruan Zeyan was having such a grand party for his one-month birthday. Ruan Guosheng and the Second Mrs. Yuan couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.
“So she gave birth to a son. Who can’t do that? Just giving birth to him is far from enough! You need to raise him as well. It’s nothing but a baby at the moment. How could he be worthy of all this extravagance and grandeur?”
