Chapter 788: Chapter 788 Auntie, what are you going to do?

Ruan Lingyu instinctively felt something was off. Standing up, she asked, "Yiqian, who was on the phone? Does it have to do with Mianmian?"

Perhaps it was because she missed her daughter too much, but Ruan Lingyu always seemed to hastily associate everything with her.

"No," Ruan Yiqian shook his head. Unable to find the person, he didn’t want to disappoint his mother further, "It’s just some business matters. Don’t overthink it. If there’s any news about Mianmian, I’ll inform you right away."

Ruan Lingyu sat back down, looking disappointed, "Drive safely and take care on the road."

"Hmm," Ruan Yiqian nodded and cast another glance at Cheng Xining, saying, "Xining, drop the idea you had just now. I know Xiaonan very well. As for what kind of person Shen Mianmian is, I’m not that familiar with her yet. But regardless of who she is, we can’t deliberately prevent her from studying. Once such things start happening, there will be a second time, and we cannot set such a precedent."

After he finished, he stepped out the door.

"Aunt, look, even Brother Yiqian is bewitched by Shen Mianmian," Cheng Xining began crying again, outraged. Why did everyone side with Shen Mianmian?

Just because she’s a bit prettier?

She was pretty too, wasn’t she?

"Xining, don’t get agitated," Ruan Lingyu patted her shoulder and comforted her, "I won’t let you be wronged in vain. You can count on that!"

Her eyes brightened upon hearing those words, and she stopped crying. "Aunt, what are you planning to do?"

Ruan Lingyu thought for a moment and said, "I’ll go have a talk with her! Xining, don’t tell your Aunty Fu about this, alright? Do you understand?"

"Why can’t we tell Aunty Fu?" Cheng Xining was puzzled. "Shouldn’t Aunty Fu know what kind of person Shen Mianmian is?"

What a great opportunity this was to play the victim in front of Aunty Fu, earning both sympathy and showing Shen Mianmian’s true colors. Why couldn’t she go?

Ruan Lingyu gave her a reproachful look, "You! I’m worried that before Aunty Fu sees through Shen Mianmian, she’ll see through you. Now tell me, was everything you said earlier the absolute truth, without any exaggeration?"

She knew the child she had watched grow up.

At first, she did believe nearly everything Cheng Xining said, blinded by anger. But after calming down and thinking it over, she knew that the truth might be mixed with falsehoods.

Such matters should be managed within the family. There was no need to involve Fu Hua.

"Aunt, do you doubt my words?" Cheng Xining felt somewhat guilty.

Ruan Lingyu stroked her hair, "Xining, don’t worry. I’ve always treated you as my own daughter. The decisions I make are definitely for your own good."

Cheng Xining nodded, "Aunt, I’ll listen to you."

She felt secretly delighted. Since her aunt had said this, she would surely deal with Shen Mianmian for her.

Seeing her obedient attitude, Ruan Lingyu’s mood slightly improved, "Xining, Xiaonan is very outstanding, and we know you two are well-matched. We also know you really like Xiaonan, but I still want to advise you, if Xiaonan really doesn’t have feelings for you, you should give up. Xiaonan has a cold nature, and you are lively. If you really get married in the future, I’m afraid you won’t have much in common to talk about."

Her own husband’s nature was quite similar to Xiaonan’s. Ruan Lingyu knew all too well that marrying a man like that, if he didn’t love her, there would be no happiness at all.
