Chapter 207: Shut Her Up

Ling Tianya’s words were like a slap to Madam Ling’s face. Back when Yu Meizi committed infidelity the entire Ling family was ridiculed like a bunch of clowns. She had the right to hate on Ling Tianya and her mom!

Yu Meizi eloped from the Ling family, and she was nowhere to be found. All she could do was to take out her anger and frustration on Ling Tianya. What was wrong with that? After all, a child born to a harlot, was a harlot too! Someone like that didn’t deserve a happy ending, she didn’t deserve any happiness!

She had never expected that her own daughter would commit the same silly mistake. Ling Tianya was using her past actions to hold her accountable for her actions and that frustrated Madam Ling.

She thought that if she had treated Ling Tianya, even if it was just a smidgen, a little better in the past, she wouldn’t be set in such a passive position. Even if time was to reverse itself, Madam Ling would still choose to be harsh to Ling Tianya.

Madam Ling’s face was violently red with anger that she couldn’t release anywhere. Her breaths were hard and heavy. She glared at Ling Tianya as though she wanted her dead.

Ling Tao’s face drooped. “Let’s just leave it like that, Sis has a mental illness, so it’s best that she stays in the hospital to take care of it. I believe that brother-in-law would not lie to us. Besides, there’s still Meiyi. Even Meiyi wasn’t against Sis entering the mental hospital, and that’s proof that it’s best for her to stay there!”

Madam Ling’s face fell. It was ashen with disappointment and she left the table silently.

Ling Tao patted Ling Tianya’s shoulder in what was supposedly a supportive action. “Yaya, don’t pay too much attention to what your granny said. She still hasn’t accepted the fact that your Aunt is sick. She’ll be fine after a few days when the information has sunk in.”

Ling Tianya nodded, she didn’t say anything else. Ling Tao reached out to place food onto her plate, and she ate it all out without further comment.

It was as obvious as day that Ling Tao was genuinely supporting her and had been opposing Granny the entire time. It is the first time in her entire life since her birth that she witnessed something like that.

Ling Tao was famous for being blindly filial to his mother.

“Yaya, have some more food.” Having found no opportunity to speak up, Qu Wan finally announced her own presence at the table, “Since your dad knew that you were coming back, he’s been over the moon. He didn’t even go to work just to wait for you at home!”

Ling Tianya gave Ling Tao a rare smile. That made Ling Tao a very, very happy man to see his own daughter smiling at him.

Just as the mood on the table got better, Qu Wan let out a wispy sigh. “Your dad has been waiting for a day where everyone in the family can sit down and have a meal together for a long time. It’s just a pity that Yuqing isn’t here…”

As Qu Wan said that, she carefully observed Ling Tao’s reaction.

Seeing that Ling Tao only furrowed his brows a little, and did not react too much, Qu Wan continued, “Yaya, just two days ago your sister Yuqing called me. She said that she especially missed the days where she studied by your side in the production crew.”

The woman refused to bring up the issue of bringing Huang Yuqing back to the Ling family. She didn’t make use of pity to garner compassion, but instead mentioned that Huang Yuqing missed the times when she was learning by her side.

Qu Wan knew that she couldn’t be too impatient, and everything would fall into place at the right time. It was clearly not reasonable to let Huang Yuqing come home immediately, but she could at least fight for something else.

Qu Wan observed the reactions of the other two at the table, but her next words were interrupted by Ling Tianya.

“Oh right, Dad, there’s something that I didn’t quite understand.”

“What is it?”

“Other than Zhang Ke, I only told Ruan Zeyan and you guys about the fact that I was going to A City. How did Li Chenfeng and Auntie know about it, and even reached there before I did?”

“Home?” Ling Tao’s brows furrowed again. “When did you say it? I don’t remember you saying that. I only knew from your uncle that you were in A City after the situation happened with your Aunt.”

Ling Tianya feigned her surprise, looking over at Qu Wan. “That’s odd, the day before I left for A City, Qu Wan called me asking me to come home for dinner. I told her that I wouldn’t be able to be here because I would be in A City. Did Qu Wan not tell you?”
