Chapter 1049: I Want to Play the Supporting Actress
Ruan Lingyu wanted to call out to Ruan Yiqian, but in the end, she didn’t manage to do it. She was really happy when her son returned, but somehow, within just a few sentences, they were at odds again and she had angered her son away.
Upon hearing the door close, Cheng’s mother began to complain to Ruan Lingyu, "Sister-in-law, I’m not trying to speak ill of Yiqian, but his temperament, it’s becoming more and more like Shen Mianmian. In my opinion, Yiqian has been led astray by Shen Mianmian. Look at him before, when has he ever talked back to you or me? Now he doesn’t take either of us seriously at all. Is this the way for the younger generation to treat their elders?"
Ruan Lingyu felt a sudden wave of irritation, "I don’t know why Yiqian has become like this either. Don’t be angry with him. I’ll have a good talk with him later, and get him to apologize to you."
"Don’t, please don’t ask him to apologize to me," Cheng’s mother said sarcastically. "I can’t afford it. Now that Yiqian’s business is growing bigger and bigger, and he’s a big boss, it’s normal for him not to take me seriously, but the fact that he still calls me ’aunt’ shows respect."
Ruan Lingyu felt awkward being told this, "It’s Yiqian’s fault."
Cheng Xining thought she had stayed enough for the night, so she said, "Auntie, you should rest early! We will head back home now."
She didn’t act spoiled anymore; her tone somewhat angry, seemingly upset about Ruan Yiqian’s actions as well.
Ruan Lingyu helplessly stood up to see the two to the door, "Xining, when you get back, have a good talk with your mom. I will get Yiqian to apologize to her later."
"Auntie, we’re all family, my mom won’t really be angry with Brother Yiqian. However, I think if things go on like this, Brother Yiqian and you will become more and more estranged. You should really work on your relationship with Brother Yiqian instead of letting others influence you." It was obvious who that "others" referred to.
