After they came underneath the roof, although Ye Ling didn’t like her, he still took a soft cushion and placed it on the stool before asking her to sit.
When Ye Lanlan aw this small act of kindness, her eyes couldn’t help but go red.
“Thank you, Ling.”
Ye Ling didn’t know why her eyes went red. He frowned slightly and said very patiently, “Tell me, why did you come here?”
It had been a few months since she was chased away but she shamelessly came here again. Ye Ling didn’t even have to guess to know it was definitely not because of something good!
However, he couldn’t help but feel that Ye Lanlan had changed.
She no longer had that bossy and domineering attitude she’d had in the past.
This was also the first time Ye Lanlan saw Liu Ran. However, she knew Liu Duo had a little brother and she had also heard that he lived with them.
She saw Liu Ran lift his head to glance at her but he didn’t look like he had any intention of acknowledging her. And so Ye Lanlan didn’t greet him either.
If it were in the past, she would’ve definitely said a few disparaging words towards Liu Ran.
“Ling, where is sister-in-law? Is she not home?” Ye Lanlan looked around.
She hadn’t seen any traces of Liu Duo from the time she entered the yard.
“Why exactly are you here?” Ye Ling didn’t answer and instead asked a question of his own.
He did not believe Ye Lanlan had come here to visit his wife! Liu Duo was not close with her at all.
Ye Lanlan saw that Ye Ling didn’t wish to chat with her and she sighed ever so slightly.
She lowered her head slightly and said softly, “Ling, actually, I’m here because I want to ask you guys to help me. Can you guys lend me some money?”
Ye Lanlan had come to borrow money a few months ago. She failed in borrowing the money and she got pregnant not long after returning to her in-laws’ house.
That was supposed to be a joyous situation. However, for Ye Lanlan, this was the beginning of a nightmare!
Her mother-in-law wanted a divorce because of Ye Lanlan’s haughtiness. However, her pregnancy made it so she couldn’t be divorced. Thus, she created all sorts of difficulties for Ye Lanlan by throwing all the household chores at her and showing her attitude.
Ye Lanlan’s husband had initially treated her quite well. However, that changed.
When Ye Ling heard her, he looked at her but didn’t say anything.
Did she come to borrow money again?
However, her attitude this time was much much better than the last time.
Liu Ran was at the side. When he heard that she came to borrow money, he lifted up his head to glance at Ye Lanlan again.
Liu Duo stood at the kitchen door and looked at the people underneath the roof. She said, “Mom, it is Ye Lanlan who came.”
“Why did she come?” Aunt Li frowned. She didn’t like Ye Lanlan at all.
“I don’t know, but it definitely isn’t for something good!” Liu Duo said neither happily nor angrily, “She is pregnant and is carrying a big tummy.”
She was quite surprised by this. It looked like she was already five months pregnant.
When Aunt Li heard her, she immediately went to the door and took a look.
“It can’t be because she came here wanting to gain something, and thought that if she couldn’t get it, she would cause a scene, and that we wouldn’t dare to touch her because she is pregnant, right?”
After all, she had a very low opinion of Ye Lanlan’s character!
Upon hearing what she said, Liu Duo answered, seemingly unconcerned, “There is no need to worry. Even if she is here to get money, she probably wouldn’t use the baby in her tummy to cause a scene.”
She felt that even though Ye Lanlan was someone with a really shitty character, she was still a mother first, and probably wouldn’t risk her child’s life over something like this.
After all, if she caused a scene while pregnant with her child, and something went wrong, it would be two lives lost.
The gains were simply not worth the risk!
“Mom, I’ll go take a look,” Liu Duo said while she walked towards Ye Ling and the others.
Ye Lanlan was a person who wouldn’t visit a temple without a cause. She wanted to see what tricks she wanted to play this time.
