Chapter 31 - What Does He Want? (2/2)

Neither Madam Ling nor Ling Tao said anything, but their soured faces said a lot.

Realizing the insensitivity in her mother’s words, Guan Meiyi nudged Ling Qi lightly, but Ling Qi was too pleased with herself at that moment to care.

Due to the unexpected arrival of Ruan Zeyan, everybody seemed to have forgotten about the debacle that just happened in the Ling Family. Instead, all the attention was placed on the brilliant Ruan Zeyan.

Ruan Zeyan stopped in front of Ling Qi, “Sorry, Mrs. Guan. I’m not here for the party.”

It was an awkward moment. Even Guan Jianlin lost the smug look on his face after hearing that. He was good friends with Ruan Zeyan’s father Ruan Qishan, so technically Ruan Zeyan should call him ‘uncle’. No one would actually complain if the Ruan Family decided not to attend the party, but not only did Ran Zeyan actually come, he didn’t bother to say h.e.l.lo to his uncle.

‘Even worse, what did he say? He’s not here for the party. What is he here for then?

What Ruan Zeyan said put the Guan Family in an uncomfortable spot. In fact, it sent everyone’s head spinning.

“So, you are here… for Meiyi?” Ling Qi raised one eyebrow, trying to hide the awkwardness.

Everyone knew that Ruan Zeyan and Guan Meiyi were set up to get married.

Hearing her mother say that, the tiny elegant face of Guan Meiyi instantly blushed.

“No, I’m not.”

Getting knocked back again, Ling Qi finally said, “Zeyan, what are you here for?”
