Chapter 889: Chapter 889: Couple’s Quarrel 2

"When did you become so unreasonable?" Mr. Ruan frowned.

His sister’s words had shattered his worldview.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Mrs. Ruan quietly tugged at Mr. Ruan’s sleeve, then smiled and said to Mrs. Cheng and Ruan Lingyu, "Sister-in-law, we’ll be going back first. Xining is in a bad mood, please have a talk with her."

After speaking, she pulled Mr. Ruan and Ruan Yiyang out of the door.

The three of them were at the entrance when they ran into Ruan Feng and Ruan Yiqian, who had just finished seeing off other guests. They exchanged greetings and then left.

Cheng Xining was still clutching Ruan Lingyu, sobbing and wailing, while Ruan Lingyu softly comforted her with a pained expression.

Ruan Feng saw this scene and immediately frowned. He had found his daughter. Why were his sister and her family not happy for them and instead displaying such an attitude? What did this mean?

Ruan Yiqian also looked displeased when he saw this scene. He knew the details of Cheng Xining’s and Mianmian’s issues the most, and naturally knew who was right and who was wrong. Now hearing that Shen Mianmian was his sister, and seeing Cheng Xining creating a scene here, felt utterly unreasonable.

Observing Ruan Lingyu’s pained face as she comforted her, he suddenly remembered what He Nan had said.

It seemed that He Nan really understood Ruan Lingyu better than he did.

Thinking this, he directly walked over and said, "Xining, stop making a scene. Mianmian is my sister, that’s a fact. No amount of your fussing will change that."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xining cried even louder.

Ruan Lingyu, seeing this, immediately glared at Ruan Yiqian. "Xining is already very upset; why would you say something like that?"

Ruan Yiqian frowned, "Mom, if Mianmian saw this scene, what would she think? Would she feel like our family doesn’t like her at all?"

Before Ruan Lingyu could respond, Cheng Xining cried out in rebuttal, "I never liked her in the first place. A country bumpkin girl, how could she suddenly become the Ruan family’s precious daughter?"

These words instantly changed the expressions on the faces of Ruan Feng and Ruan Yiqian.

Seeing this, Mr. Cheng realized Cheng Xining had gone too far, and quickly scolded her, "Xining, what are you saying? Since Mianmian is indeed Mianmian, she is now your sister. Whatever happened before, let it be stricken from the record; no one is allowed to bring it up or hold a grudge."

"I don’t want her as my sister." Cheng Xining was extremely distressed, not listening to anything at the moment, only wishing someone would tell her that it was all a misunderstanding.

"You..."

Mr. Cheng wanted to scold her again, but was stopped by Mrs. Cheng.

"Enough, Xining is already heartbroken; why blame her? Everyone else knows how to empathize with their daughter, only you don’t. When has Xining ever faced such grievances from childhood till now?"

These words were clearly directed at Ruan Feng and Ruan Yiqian.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Cheng reluctantly shook his head and said to Ruan Feng, "Kids can be disobedient; don’t be upset. It’s getting late, and we’ll be going too."

Ruan Feng frowned silently. He was well aware of what kind of person his brother-in-law was, yet he hadn’t expected that after so many years of limited contact, even his sister had changed like this.

Mrs. Cheng, visibly angry, dragged Cheng Xining along behind Mr. Cheng.

Ruan Lingyu looked at Cheng Xining’s retreating figure, feeling immense heartache.

Seeing this, Ruan Yiqian reminded, "Mom, you should focus more on Mianmian."

When Cheng Xining had spoken about Shen Mianmian earlier, Ruan Lingyu never defended Shen Mianmian and had even kept a stern face the whole time. Finding Mianmian was supposed to be a joyous event, but it turned out like this.

Although he understood why his aunt’s family was unhappy, it was unexpected that Ruan Lingyu also felt the same.
