Chapter 239: The Thing You Did

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Madam Ruan was angry...

The whole dining hall fell into complete silence. At that point, no one would be dumb enough to stand up for Ruan Guofu and his family.

It was public knowledge that Mr. Ruan Senior had two wives. Madam Ruan was his legal wife, and Ruan Guosheng and Ruan Guofu’s mother was the mistress who lived elsewhere.

Back in those days, because of that mistress, Madam Ruan was so mad that she nearly committed suicide.

That was to say, the matter was buried deep inside of Madam Ruan’s heart all those years and nobody was allowed to touch it. Now someone crossed this line, it was the same as opening her old wound.

When Ruan Guofu and his family first brought out the Phoenix Ascend piece, everyone thought that they finally earned themselves some kudos in front of the old lady. Who knew that things would take such an unexpected turn?

Ruan Guofu was completely floored. He had always found gift buying a chore and would let his wife handle such matters. That time was no exception when he asked third Mrs. Ruan to find a gift that was going to be the center of attention no matter how expensive.

Turned out that their family had indeed become the center of attention, as well as the butt of the joke.

Ruan Guofu stared at his wife furiously. “What have you done!?”

Third Mrs. Ruan was shocked and confused as well. Wasn’t it just a qipao? She thought that Phoenix Ascend sounded nice but didn’t know it had such a layer of meaning! If she knew it back then, she would never try to get the qipao only to offend the old lady.

With that thought in mind, third Mrs. Ruan looked over at Ling Tianya and her gaze was soaked with poison.

The qipao was picked out by Ling Tianya originally, but then she went down for it! With that look on her face, she must know what Phoenix Ascend meant!

“Ling Tianya, how dare you playing a trick on me!”

That day, the reason why third Mrs. Ruan bought Phoenix Ascend was because Ling Tianya was fighting with her over it. She was a person who always wanted something more when she knew it was difficult to get.

The more she thought about it, the angrier third Mrs. Ruan became. Ling Tianya gave up quickly after a brief fight and she thought it was because Ling Tianya feared her status. Now thinking about it, she was trying to trick her into buying that qipao and making a fool of herself in front of the old lady!

Third Mrs. Ruan was more and more certain about her theory. Once a thought developed in her head, she was willing to overlook all the other details. She was convinced that Ling Tianya was playing a trick on her on purpose, although she forgot that Ling Tianya didn’t even know who she was at first.

Ling Tianya saw the look of one-thousand daggers from third Mrs. Ruan and guessed what must be going through her mind. She shook her head: IQ was a good thing and sadly that woman’s IQ wasn’t very high.

Ruan Lijia’s face turned pale. Previously Big Grandma had always treated her family with distance, but she was never that mad at them. The qipao really did some damage that day.

“Big Mom...We didn’t know the meaning of Phoenix Ascend. I thought Phoenix meant good luck and it would be suitable for your birthday!” said third Mrs. Ruan with her nails dug in.

Madam Ruan rolled her eyes at third Mrs. Ruan and the fury on her face didn’t mitigate even a little.

Hair raised on the back of Run Guofu’s neck as he thought that it was not the time to offend the old lady. Then, he had a sudden determined look on his face and one hand slapped third Mrs. Ruan’s face.

“Stupid woman! Can’t even get a good birthday gift! You made Big Mother angry for no reason!”

The slap hit her when third Mrs. Ruan was completely unprepared. Half of her face was numb, and her head went blank.
