Madam Ruan was angry…

The whole dining hall fell into complete silence. At that point, no one would be dumb enough to stand up for Ruan Guofu and his family.

It was public knowledge that Mr. Ruan Senior had two wives. Madam Ruan was his legal wife, and Ruan Guosheng and Ruan Guofu’s mother was the mistress who lived elsewhere.

Back in those days, because of that mistress, Madam Ruan was so mad that she nearly committed suicide.

That was to say, the matter was buried deep inside of Madam Ruan’s heart all those years and n.o.body was allowed to touch it. Now someone crossed this line, it was the same as opening her old wound.

When Ruan Guofu and his family first brought out the Phoenix Ascend piece, everyone thought that they finally earned themselves some kudos in front of the old lady. Who knew that things would take such an unexpected turn?

Ruan Guofu was completely floored. He had always found gift buying a ch.o.r.e and would let his wife handle such matters. That time was no exception when he asked third Mrs. Ruan to find a gift that was going to be the center of attention no matter how expensive.

Turned out that their family had indeed become the center of attention, as well as the b.u.t.t of the joke.

Ruan Guofu stared at his wife furiously. “What have you done!?”

Third Mrs. Ruan was shocked and confused as well. Wasn’t it just a qipao? She thought that Phoenix Ascend sounded nice but didn’t know it had such a layer of meaning! If she knew it back then, she would never try to get the qipao only to offend the old lady.

With that thought in mind, third Mrs. Ruan looked over at Ling Tianya and her gaze was soaked with poison.
