Chapter 16: A Tight Slap Across The Face

Liu Shuying looked at Wen Ruan’s innocent expressions and became suspicious.

This silly Missy always listened to her and would never rebut her.

What was happening today? She didn’t just pit herself against Wanwan, she even became eloquent and aggressive.

Liu Shuying suppressed her displeasure and smiled gently. “Ruanruan, Wanwan and I didn’t know anything about the meaning behind it. Wanwan is always focused on her studies. She is ranked sixth in the school seniors’ opening exam for the entire grade. Her results wouldn’t be so good if she was dating, right?”

Wen Jinzhang’s expression turned sullen when the results were mentioned.

Ye Wanwan was the sixth in the whole grade. Wen Ruan was ranked sixth as well, but in reverse.

Wen Jinzhang waved his hand as he didn’t want to waste time on such trivial matters. “It’s just a misunderstanding. It’s fine now since the children have talked it out. Let’s go and have dinner!”

Old Mrs. Wen wanted to say something in Wen Ruan’s favor but Wen Ruan gave her a look secretly.

Old Mrs. Wen squeezed Wen Ruan’s fair and tender hands as the two of them smiled at each other.

There were many dishes on the dining table and they were all Old Mrs. Wen, Wen Jinzhang and Wen Ruan’s favorites.

Wen Jinzhang gave Liu Shuying a look. “Get the servants to do this in the future. You are already working in the day and yet, you are still doing all these at night. It’s too tiring.”

“If you all like the dishes, I am happy even when I am tired.”

Old Mrs. Wen said, “The cook bought all the ingredients and he washed and chopped them as well. So, it’s indeed very tiring to simply fry them for a short time.”

Wen Ruan lowered her eyes and almost burst out laughing.

She gave grandma a thumbs-up in her heart.

Liu Shuying’s smile froze on her face. But she still had to maintain her demure image in front of Wen Jinzhang and switched the topic to the next week’s monthly test. “Wanwan, don’t just study on your own, help Ruanruan whenever you get the time.”

“You two are sisters so you are bound together.” Liu Shuying looked at Wen Ruan again as she was the virtuous mistress of the house.

“Ruanruan, go and do your homework with Wanwan on the third floor after dinner. Ask Wanwan to help you whenever you have a question, okay?”

If it was in the past, Wen Ruan would have rejected it immediately when she heard the word ‘homework’.

But now, Wen Ruan didn’t react negatively. Instead, she nodded sweetly and obediently. “Alright. Then, I shall have to bother Sister Wanwan.”

A hint of surprise flashed across Wen Jinzhang’s eyes when he heard that Wen Ruan was finally willing to learn sincerely.
