Chapter 416 - Can’t We Have a Normal Conversation?
Ling Tianya noticed that Ruan Zeyan was a true actor. If he were to act in a movie, it would be modest to say that he would receive all of the awards.
Fancy that she had felt sympathy for Ruan Zeyan when he had hung his head and apologized. She had felt like she was being selfish by saying that she wanted to watch a movie.
In the end, the one the one who deserved sympathy was clearly her, okay?
Ling Tiaya angrily retracted her hand from Ruan Zeyan’s hand. At this moment, someone arrived at the table next to them. The tables at this restaurant had a divider between them, so they weren’t able to see who was seated next to them but hearing the voices, it was evident that it was a man and a woman. The pair’s conversation immediately attracted the attention of Ling Tianya.
“Why do you have time to accompany me? Aren’t you afraid that your wife will be mad?” The woman’s voice was delicate and charming.
“Don’t mention that damn person! She’s so damn annoying!” The man’s voice was irritable, but it wasn’t hard to recognize that he was the person that recently married Guan Meiyi, He Zhenxuan.
“Damn annoying? How about damn gorgeous? She was once a big star!”
“Big star? You mean a trashy celebrity? In the past, if it wasn’t for her father begging me to marry her, how would she have possible married into the He family? Originally, I believed that I had married a beauty but who knew that she’d be so dead in bed? She can’t compare to you, flirty and unrestrained.”
“Then shouldn’t you treat me better? Recently, I saw this car I liked. It’s only two million dollars.”
“I’ll buy it. However, tonight, you have to take care of me.”
“I understand, handsome. I promise that I’ll take care of you better than your wife.”
In the car, Ling Tianya didn’t look good. She was reflecting back to the day of Guan Meiyi’s wedding, where she had begged, with tears streaming down her face, for her to forgive Li Qi.
She had said that she had been forced to marry He Zhenxuan. Despite knowing that he was a playboy, she still ended up marrying him.
Throughout the entire wedding, she hadn’t smiled and had remained strong.
“What’s wrong?” Ruan Zeyan held Ling Tianya in his arms.
“I’m thinking about Guan Meiyi.” Ling Tianya’s voice was faint and a little frustrated. “She was once such an arrogant person but today, when I saw her in the production team being scolded by a newbie, she could only hang her head and apologize.”
“Are you sympathizing with her?” asked Ruan Zeyan.
“No.” Ling Tianya firmly shook her head. “It’s not sympathy. She was the one who chose this path. Therefore, she is one who has to suffer the consequences. I just feel that she didn’t have to live this way.”
Ruan Zeyan was facing forward. He slowly said, “The Guan Company was already bankrupt. Without the support of the He family, they wouldn’t have lasted for so long. Therefore, there was absolutely no way that Guan Jianlin would have allowed Guan Meiyi to leave He Zhenxuan.”
Ling Tianya understood that this was the life for many socialites. For the sake of the family fortune, they were forced to marry someone that they don’t love. Despite knowing that the other person was unsavory, they could only accept their fate.
Ling Tianya leaned on Ruan Zeyan. “Promise me, in the future, if we give birth to a daughter, at least in the matter of marriage, allow her freedom.”
“Okay,” Ruan Zeyan immediately responded to Ling Tianya. Then, his big hands resumed massaging Ling Tianya’s back and waist. He spoke in Ling Tianya’s ear, his voice deep, “However, first, you have to give birth to a daughter.”
Ling Tianya didn’t say anything in response. She had finally noticed. This man’s mind was entirely focused bedroom matters and no matter their topic, he was able to somehow link it to that.
Ling Tianya thought, with a tired heart, Can they just have a normal conversation?
