Chapter 748 - Came in Here Sobbing
Ling Tianya was about to deliver. Ruan Qishan stood outside the room so as not to cause any inconvenience. Wang Yazhi walked in anxiously.
When she walked in, she quickly teared up and held onto Ling Tianya’s free hand. “My good Yaya, don’t be afraid of the surgery. Ma will be waiting for you outside!”
“Hmm, I’m not afraid.” Ling Tianya looked at Wang Yazhi. This woman in front of her was not her biological mother but she had given her unconditional selfless love ever since she entered the Ruan family. She had treated her like her own daughter and had given Ling Tianya all the love and care she had ever wanted.
She used to think that she would reciprocate Wang Yazhi’s kindness and respect as she ought to.
But now, as she was about to become a mother herself, she was moved beyond words. She couldn’t help but choke up and started crying herself, out of respect and love for another mother.
Ling Tianya had never felt motherly love since she was little. All she had received from Yu Meizi was hurt and disappointment. Now, with Wang Yazhi standing in front of her, she felt what she sorely missed. Ling Tianya was grateful for the love even though she knew that it was all thanks to Ruan Zeyan, and she would always remember this warmth that was extended to her.
When she saw that Ling Tianya was crying, Wang Yazhi was shocked. “Yaya, why are you crying? Does your stomach hurt now? Don’t cry, my dear!”
Ling Tianya was smiling as she wiped away her tears. She felt like a fool laughing amidst tears.
Madame Ruan said grumpily to Wang Yazhi, “It’s all your fault! You came in here sobbing and you made the Ling girl cry along with you.”
Wang Yazhi immediately wiped away her tears and said, “Yaya, Mother is not crying anymore. Don’t shed any more tears. You’re about to become a mother now, and all mothers are strong, aren’t they?”
Although Wang Yazhi was a cheerful and kind person generally, it was because she was sheltered in the Ruan family. As a mother, Wang Yazhi was definitely resilient. She had a difficult labor when she delivered Ruan Zeyan years ago. She fought tooth and nail to endure the pain even though she had a very low pain threshold.
Fifth Grandfather and Seventh Grandfather were still pacing in the corridor along with their families. They were indifferent about all the hospital staff attending to Ling Tianya.
The baby was a just girl anyway, so what was the big fuss for? Did the hospital have to step up their protocols?
Fifth Grandfather saw Ruan Qishan standing there and walked over with the miracle doctor’s card. “Qishan…”
“Fifth Uncle.” Ruan Qishan was in no mood to talk to his uncle but he was still his elder after all. Even if Ruan Qishan was an important person, he couldn’t just ignore his elder so blatantly.
Ruan Qishan was not as harsh as Ruan Zeyan in this aspect. If Ruan Zeyan decided not to pay them any attention, he would never entertain them even if they were his elders.
Fifth Grandfather handed over the business card to Ruan Qishan and said, “Qishan, I came to the mansion today because of this. This doctor is awfully good. He has a legendary prescription that has been passed down from his ancestors to guarantee a baby boy.”
Ruan Qishan took the card and looked at his uncle in confusion. “Fifth Uncle, what do you mean by this?”
Fifth Grandfather looked over at Ling Tianya’s room. “Isn’t your daughter-in-law going to give birth to a baby girl? What use is a girl? She will be married off in the future anyway, and you can’t possibly leave the Ruan Group in the hands of a girl! It will be the same as passing our family business to an outsider!”
Ruan Qishan was quiet, but his eyes were unsettled.
Fifth Grandfather had not picked up his uneasiness and continued, “Although your daughter-in-law is young and she could give birth to more children in the future, you can’t be sure she will produce a baby boy. You may end up having multiple granddaughters. There are plenty of families like that. ”
