Lin Ruoxi replied, "Actually, Sister Tang doesn't need to always call me Director Lin. If your daughter Tangtang marries Yuan Ye in the future, it would mean that we are relatives. At that time, it would not be appropriate to call Director Lin Director Lin Director Lin. I think we should address each other as sisters now. However, it seems that you have grown up in the same generation as us.
Tang Wan clenched her fists beneath the table, feeling a wave of discomfort in her heart.
Lin Ruoxi's words sounded kind, but she clearly said, "You are an elder. Don't think that just by looking at your appearance, you can forget about your own seniority. If you do something, you will look bad in the future."
Tang Wan was also bitter, because even though Lin Ruoxi's words had revealed her true intentions, they had still hit a crucial point!
Indeed, looking at it now, Tangtang's and Yuan Ye's relationship had already stabilized after a life and death calamity. She was destined to be Yuan Ye's mother-in-law, and at that time, it would be equivalent to being married to Yang Family.
Yuan Ye was Yang Chen's cousin. If she had that relationship with Yang Chen, then wouldn't it be an unrequited love?
Tang Wan said softly: "How could that be, then I'll call you Little Sister Ruoxi. I don't really care about ethical seniority, back then when all of Yanjing City laughed at me, I still used the technology of a test tube baby to give birth to my darling daughter. Now that I'm this age, I'm even more unconcerned about some things. "
The corner of Lin Ruoxi's mouth slightly twitched. She said, "That's right, I also admire Sister Tang's dexterity. In the future, when you have time, come visit us at home, since we're all family members, it's not bad to walk around early. Oh, right, my mother-in-law also values maintenance, but it's not as good as what Sister Tang does. At that time, when Sister Tang can communicate with my mother-in-law, the elder will definitely be very happy."
If it wasn't for Tang Wan knowing that this was Lin Ruoxi's scheme, she would have flipped over the table and leave angrily!
This woman was truly worthy of being called the ice mountain that frightened all the competitors. On the surface, it was only the tip of the iceberg. Most of the ice spikes were lying dormant under the sea!
Even though she rarely attended any of the events and always let Mo Qianni and Liu Mingyu take her place when she spoke, even if she didn't speak, every sentence was more torturous than the last!
As she spoke, she was on the same side as Yang Chen's mother, Guo Xuehua!
Tang Wan's grievance was indescribable, but she could only endure it. If she were to be angered, it would be tantamount to going against Lin Ruoxi.
What would Yang Chen think if he got into a fight with Lin Ruoxi? Would she divorce Lin Ruoxi for him alone? That was impossible. After all, Lin Ruoxi only said a few words that sounded very polite. The only possibility was that she didn't dare to get too close to him due to the pressure from her family.
Seeing that it was about time, Lin Ruoxi took out two hundred red notes from her purse and placed it on the table. She stood up and said, "I still need to go to the market to buy vegetables. It's rare for me to be at home with my husband, and I want to show off, so I won't stay too long. I'll take this morning tea. Although I know Sister Tang won't mind the money, but count me in as a junior. "
With that, Lin Ruoxi smiled elegantly and turned to head downstairs.
Tang Wan looked at the two hundred-dollar bills on the table and gritted her teeth. Her eyes became watery as she muttered, "It's all because of you, Yang Chen. It's not good to marry any woman. But to marry a woman that's so difficult to deal with, I'm really pissed off!"
Lin Ruoxi walked down the stairs and calmly walked back to her car. She closed the door and heaved a long sigh of relief.
Patting her chest, Lin Ruoxi felt a wave of weakness wash over her. Previously, when she had been battling Tang Wan, it hadn't been easy for her. Fortunately, she hadn't fallen to the peak.
After starting up the car, Lin Ruoxi felt a little sorry for Tang Wan. Other than Yang Chen, the two of them were quite friendly.
But when she thought about the relationship between Tang Wan and Yang Chen, Lin Ruoxi shook her head and waved away her guilt. She laughed self-deprecatingly, "Forget it, I'm not some woman with a Bodhisattva heart. If I did something bad, I'll do it. Since I can't control a man, then he should be able to distance himself from a woman. "
With that in mind, Lin Ruoxi drove the car towards the supermarket in the direction of her home.
Although she wanted to buy vegetables, Lin Ruoxi didn't want to go to the market either. Instead, she chose the supermarket with a higher price.
After all, the smell and hygiene of the market was not something she could easily accept. Furthermore, being stared at by a large group of people would make her feel uncomfortable all over. Relatively speaking, the supermarket was much more relaxed.
By the time he had bought two bags of food and arrived home, it was already ten o'clock. After all, she was a woman. It took him a lot of time to go to the supermarket.
Yang Chen was watching Korean dramas with Guo Xuehua. Although it wasn't what he liked, since he told Lin Ruoxi to rest at home for a day, he did his best to make his mother happy.
Seeing Lin Ruoxi return home with a head full of sweat and a blushing face, Yang Chen had a revelation. He smiled and said, "Ruoxi, good girl, could it be that you will be the one to give me a spoon for lunch today?"
Lin Ruoxi nodded shyly. "Don't worry, I've already learnt a lot. I can do it."
Yang Chen teased, "Are you sure you didn't forget?"
Lin Ruoxi only thought that Yang Chen didn't trust her and said anxiously, "It's really okay, you don't have to believe me and ask Mom and Nanny Wang!"
Guo Xuehua hit Yang Chen's hand and scolded, "Alright, Yang Chen, stop bullying Ruoxi. Don't you know that this child has a simple personality? "Ruoxi, you can go in now. You won't be able to handle this by yourself if you're with Nanny Wang."
Lin Ruoxi happily agreed, then she picked up her bag and ran to the kitchen.
Yang Chen looked at his wife's beautiful figure and sighed. Honestly speaking, he didn't know whether Lin Ruoxi was a simple woman or not. In terms of business, she was as innocent as a ghost! But most of the time, her EQ really wasn't high. Her intentions weren't bad, but what she often said hurt. Perhaps, only when she wasn't willing to accept one thing, would she become full of killing power.
Guo Xuehua could see what Yang Chen was thinking. She patted Yang Chen's shoulder and said, "No matter what Ruoxi thinks, she is willing to spend so much effort to curry favor with you. You should also look at it sincerely, right?"
"Heh." Yang Chen chuckled and nodded in deep agreement.
Two hours later, a table full of lunch was actually made. Yang Chen was already feeling warm when he saw the ruddy face of Lin Ruoxi with two big thermal gloves carrying a plate of food out.
Nanny Wang had seen the two of them leaving each other unhappily the day before, and it had been a peaceful and comfortable day. She had even taken the initiative to go to the cellar and brought out an expensive bottle of Bordeaux red wine for the four of them to drink.
Lin Ruoxi possessed no less wine than her car. However, her family didn't have the habit of drinking wine even when they ate. Therefore, they rarely enjoyed such expensive nectar. If someone gave her wine, she would take it back and keep it, but she wouldn't be able to remember to drink it.
Lin Ruoxi was obviously absent-minded as she didn't eat much at the table. She picked up some food from time to time and put it into Yang Chen's bowl.
Yang Chen had a big appetite, so he didn't reject anyone. He wolfed down the food. Although there were a few dishes that were not as good as Nanny Wang's, Yang Chen knew how much encouragement he needed to have at this time.
The two elders looked at the couple and smiled at each other without speaking.
After eating her fill, under the effects of alcohol, Lin Ruoxi's cheeks were dyed with a layer of rouge. If it wasn't for the fact that she deliberately tortured Yang Chen a few days ago and did it a few times as a wife, she wouldn't have gotten used to this kind of considerate action.
After cleaning up the table and helping Nanny Wang clean up the kitchen, Lin Ruoxi took off her apron and took out the fresh watermelon she bought from the refrigerator. She cut the pulp and scooped it into a plate, carrying it to the living room so she could order some fruits for Yang Chen. Lin Ruoxi felt that she had improved a lot just by thinking about it.
However, as soon as she arrived at the hall, she saw that Yang Chen was nowhere to be seen.
Did he run out to find another woman? Lin Ruoxi frowned as she stood in the living room. She couldn't help but feel a bit sad.
Guo Xuehua stood up from the sofa and shook her head with a smile, "You silly child, what are you thinking? Yang Chen is sunbathing outside. Today's weather is dry, you should go out and accompany him."
Lin Ruoxi realized then that she was going to fall sick from suspicion, but she was secretly delighted. She lowered her head in embarrassment and walked out the door with the watermelon in her hand.
Guo Xuehua and Nanny Wang, both of whom had been drinking, became a little weak in their old age, and both knew that young people needed to get along quietly, so they chatted and went upstairs for a nap.
Outside the house, the wind was blowing gently and the sun was shining brightly.
Yang Chen was half lying on a big bamboo chair. He squinted his eyes, relaxed his whole body, and enjoyed the rare quiet afternoon.
Originally, he had longed for such a day when he returned to this country. The faint sun, the warm wind, no need to see the blood, no need to see the darkness. Unfortunately, there were few opportunities to experience it.
Lin Ruoxi moved slowly, tiptoeing a little as if she didn't want to disturb Yang Chen's rest too loudly. However, she didn't turn back like this with the plate in her hand, so she walked slowly to Yang Chen's side and asked softly, "Hubby, do you want to eat watermelon?"
Yang Chen smelled a sweet jasmine smell and opened his eyes. He tilted his head and looked at the beauty beside him, "Are you going to feed me?"
Lin Ruoxi thought to herself, it's better if I treat you well than me. Forget it, I'm the one who's in the wrong. She stuck out her mouth, picked up a toothpick and stuck it in Yang Chen's mouth.
"Ah, yes." Yang Chen ate a piece and chewed it without saying anything.
Lin Ruoxi asked worriedly, "Isn't it sweet? Was it still early? The watermelon wasn't ripe enough. I won't pick either. I'll choose the most expensive one. "
Yang Chen shook his head and blinked, "Just an unfamiliar melon. Even if my wife feeds me, it will still be sweet."
"Bitch." Lin Ruoxi was overjoyed. It seemed that what she had done was very useful, and Yang Chen didn't have a sense of distance from her like yesterday.
Yang Chen looked at the gorgeous woman in front of him, her hair dancing in the breeze. Suddenly, he felt exceptionally calm. He had never experienced the peace a woman brought him before.
Unconsciously, Yang Chen waved to Lin Ruoxi. "Good boy, Ruoxi, come into my arms."
Lin Ruoxi's hand that was holding the plate trembled. Luckily, she didn't fall to the ground. Hearing Yang Chen's words, her heart raced and she struggled a little.
If she was in a room, it wouldn't be a big deal if he took advantage of her. What if someone passed by outside and he had to do that to her?
Suddenly, the words Zhen Xiu had said to her that morning flashed through Lin Ruoxi's mind. That's right, wasn't she using the exact same move that Zhen Xiu had said?
That is … She didn't know if she could do it …
