Chapter 235 - Cocky Because of Being Liked
Third Mrs. Ruan and Ruan Lijia walked around the dining room. The majority of the guests had arrived, but they still didn’t see Ling Tianya.
“Why isn’t that scanty woman here yet?” Ruan Lijia muttered. She was dressed in a multi-million-dollar dress and the sole purpose was to crush Ling Tianya in front of everyone.
“That Ling Tianya is really that slobby like you described? Showing up at Ruan Zeyan’s office in jeans and sneakers?” Third Mrs. Ruan asked.
Ruan Lijia nodded, “You bet! And I heard that the first time brother Zeyan took her home to meet Big Uncle and Auntie, she was wearing jeans and a hoodie, very undignified!”
Third Mrs. Ruan’s eyes started rolling. “OMG, my Big Sister-in-Law cares so much about image. Seeing her dressed like that, wasn’t she unhappy?”
“Of course, she was unhappy. But it didn’t matter whether Big Auntie was unhappy, because brother Zeyan liked that woman.” Ruan Lijia’s face darkened more as she thought about Ling Tianya. “Hm! The only reason she can be cocky is because brother Zeyan likes her. Last time in brother Zeyan’s office, in front of all the uncles and board members, she did something so shameless! Because of her, I was punished by brother Zeyan and can’t even enter the Yuan Teng building now!”
“Ruan Zeyan likes her for now out of novelty. I seriously doubt that a low-class woman like her actually has any abilities. Not just anyone can be the first lady of the Ruan Family!” Third Mrs. Ruan looked at Wang Yazhi who was standing a short distance away. “Even that dumb Wang Yazhi was relying on her family background. She is not worthy to be the first lady of the Ruan Family otherwise!”
All in all, in the Third Mrs. Ruan’s mind, she was the only person in the whole Ruan Family suitable for the first lady’s position. Unfortunately, her husband was a son of a mistress and didn’t have the same legitimized status as Ruan Qishan.
“Today I’m waiting to see how Ling Tianya makes a giant fool out of herself. I hope that she wears jeans again and gets ridiculed by everyone!” Ruan Lijia thought to herself with anger.
At that moment, Wang Yazhi saw the mother and daughter pair and walked over with a big smile. “Ah, Third Sister-in-Law and Lijia, thanks to you helping, I’m not all frazzled.”
Third Mrs. Ruan hid her dismissiveness towards Wang Yazhi earlier and put on a nice smile. “Big Sister-in-Law, no need to say thank you. We’re all family. All we did was moving our mouths, and the people who actually worked hard were the servants. We didn’t do much.”
“I still have to thank you.” Wang Yazhi smiled genuinely. There was no calculation in her eyes just the purity of a young girl.
“Big Sister-in-Law, not trying to talk ill, but Zeyan’s fiancée has not married into the family officially yet. In circumstances like this, shouldn’t she be the one to help you in the first place?” Third Mrs. Ruan raised an eyebrow as she spoke.
Thinking about Ling Tianya, Wang Yazhi’s eyebrows scrunched up. “It was me who told Zeyan to not let her help. After all, they are not married yet. I was worried that she didn’t have much experience with big events like this, so she couldn’t really help much.”
Hearing that, Third Mrs. Ruan tapped on Ruan Lijia’s hand. “In that case, if there’s anything you need help with, just ask Lijia. She grew up with big events, unlike those people from insignificant families.”
Wang Yazhi looked at Ruan Lijia with a smile. “Yes, I know. Lijia has always been a great kid.”
Suddenly, there were noises coming from the dining room entrance. Ruan Zeyan and his fiancée had arrived.
When they heard that Ling Tianya was there, Ruan Lijia and Third Mrs. Ruan looked over with great excitement. They anticipated seeing her make a fool of herself and taking the opportunity to humiliate her.
Wang Yazhi’s face tightened as she thought to herself nervously,” Ling Tianya would not wear gym clothes again to such an occasion, would she?”
