Chapter 1142: Long Time No See (4)

At the dining table, Lina and Ruan Zeyan chatted about things that were unrelated to business. However, Ling Tianya could hear belligerence in their words.

It was clear that Lina wasn’t a normal person. All of her words were deeply layered and had multiple meanings. However, luckily, Ruan Zeyan was also not a normal person. Not only was he able to catch all of Lina’s words, he could also turn things back around to her every time.

Ling Tianya never got involved with Ruan Zeyan’s business matters, just like how Ruan Zeyan never asked Ling Tianya how much wealth she had. Throughout the entire meal, Ling Tianya was the only one who was really eating.

At this moment, the man who was sitting beside Lina suddenly walked over to Ling Tianya with two glasses of alcohol. He handed a glass to Ling Tianya, “Mrs. Ruan, don’t just eat. Come and drink with us.”

Lina had introduced him afterwards. This man was her assistant, Eric. He was a Chinese person who had a foreign citizenship.

It was clear from Eric’s tone that he carried some disdain towards Ling Tianya.

Ling Tianya placed down her chopsticks and carefully observed Eric for the first time. Eric was probably not yet forty. He had a pretty good figure, and it was clear that he regularly exercised. He wore a pair of black rimmed glasses, and his hair was neatly combed back. A faint smell of cologne wafted from his body, and his shirt was custom made from a luxurious brand; it was the latest style. It was obvious that he was a man who lived a high-quality lifestyle.

At the same time Eric told Ling Tianya to drink, Ruan Zeyan and Lina also paused their conversation and looked over at them. There was anger in Ruan Zeyan’s eyes. However, Lina acted as if she didn’t see anything, and she looked at Eric with smiling eyes.

Lina’s smile seemed to encourage Eric a lot, and as he looked at Ling Tianya, the disdain in his gaze grew even more obvious.

Ling Tianya knew that although this seemed like a normal meal, however, it was actually the first contest between Ruan Zeyan and Lina.

This man had arrived with Lina and had sat next to her. That meant that he was valued by Lina, and that all of his words and actions represented Lina.

Similarly, since Ling Tianya sat next to Ruan Zeyan and was his wife, all of her words and actions represented Ruan Zeyan.

Right now, Eric was looking at her with disdain, but yet, Lina had a smile on her face. She was clearly displaying her strength to Ruan Zeyan and her.

From Eric’s point of view, Ling Tianya was only Ruan Zeyan’s prop. All women who marry into wealthy families are the same. Either they were pompous and unreasonable vases or they were impressive-looking vases that were actually empty. Either way, they were all vases.

Also, although Ling Tianya owned an entertainment company, who knew how this company came about and whether Ruan Zeyan had bought it for her or not. This was a plausible factor.

She stared at the glass that Eric was handing her and respectfully smiled. “There must be a reason to drink. You and I are not familiar with one another. Why should I drink this glass?”

Eric had not expected Ling Tianya to ask such a question, and his expression clearly froze. After pausing for a couple of seconds, Eric said with an unnatural expression, “It is precisely because we are unfamiliar with each other. That is why we should have a drink and get to know each other.”

Ling Tianya smiled and shook her head. “My apologies, this reason is not good enough and cannot entice me to drink.”

Eric was shocked. What did this woman mean? So she wasn’t going to drink and didn’t plan on giving him any face?
