Chapter 1047: Chapter 1047: Fortunately, I Have You with Me.

After waiting for a while, Ruan Lingyu hadn’t seen anyone come in. Just as she thought she had heard wrong, the doorbell outside rang, which made Ruan Lingyu feel a wave of disappointment.

Upon opening the door, she saw Cheng’s mother and Cheng Xining standing at the entrance with a box of mooncakes, "Aunt, we’ve come to keep you company for the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"Come on in." Ruan Lingyu hid her disappointment and welcomed the two inside. After all, having someone to spend the festival with was still a comforting thought.

As soon as Cheng’s mother entered the house and saw that Ruan Lingyu was home alone, she immediately said, "Sister-in-law, it’s Mid-Autumn Festival today, and neither my brother nor Yiqian came back to have a meal with you?"

Ruan Lingyu pursed her lips and replied, "They’ve gone to the He Family to accompany Old Master He."

"What accompanying Old Master He?" Cheng’s mother poked at the truth, "I think they went to accompany Shen Mianmian, didn’t they? My brother and Yiqian, really, no matter what, they should have stayed to have a meal with you today, shouldn’t they?"

Before Ruan Lingyu could reply, she continued, "In past years, my brother was always working away and couldn’t keep you company, which was understandable. But now that he’s finally been transferred back, he still doesn’t stay with you. That’s going too far."

Ruan Lingyu already felt uncomfortable inside, but after Cheng’s mother said that, her feelings turned even more sour.

"Where do they have her in their hearts now?"

Cheng Xining, tugging at Ruan Lingyu’s arm, cooed, "Aunt, if they don’t keep you company, we will. Look, I brought egg yolk mooncakes, they’re delicious."

Ruan Lingyu smiled, "I’m glad I have you guys with me."

Cheng’s mother quickly said, "Today Xining shot scenes all day, and as soon as she got home, she went to take a bath, wanting to clean up a bit to spend Mid-Autumn with you. My daughter, she’s not close with me at all, but with you, it’s as if you were mother and daughter."

Hearing this, Ruan Lingyu instantly felt cheered up, "Xining is like the daughter I watched grow up, not much different from my own daughter."

"Aunt, Mom, stop chatting for now, come over and have some mooncake?"

Cheng Xining placed the mooncake on the dining table, opened the box, and a perfectly round large mooncake was revealed. She sniffed it and said, "Aunt, do you smell that? This mooncake smells so good!"

"I smell it."

Ruan Lingyu walked over, picked up the cutting tool included in the box, and divided the mooncake into four pieces. The three of them started to eat around the table.

After eating mooncakes, the two didn’t rush to leave but sat on the living room sofa and chatted with Ruan Lingyu, "Lingyu, did you watch today’s movie?"

"No."

Ruan Lingyu shook her head, "I’m getting on in years, that’s stuff for young people to watch."

Upon hearing this, Cheng’s mother clicked her tongue, "It’s good you didn’t go. If you had, you would certainly have gotten angry."

"What happened?" Ruan Lingyu caught the implication in Cheng’s mother’s words.

Cheng’s mother said with disdain, "I heard from Feiyang that the movie was very boldly shot, with clothes just hanging on bodies, cleavages exposed, and it included passionate kissing scenes and the like; it’s unwatchable. Anyway, with my old-fashioned eyes, I can’t take movies like that."

She didn’t directly mention Shen Mianmian, but her words clearly pointed towards her.

Ruan Lingyu’s face turned as pale as lettuce, "How can such movies be released?"

Cheng’s mother replied, "If it were made by someone else, it definitely wouldn’t be released, but with the backers this movie has? What can’t be released?" This comment was obviously about He Nan.

"..."

Ruan Lingyu, chest heaving with suppressed anger, didn’t speak while Cheng’s mother added fuel to the fire.

"I heard that on the eleventh, there will be another movie of hers released, with even bolder content."
