The Ruan family knew about Ling Tianya and Li Chenfeng’s issue. Long before, right after the Yuan Teng Corporation’s Anniversary dinner, Ruan Qishan had investigated Ling Tianya. With the situation in City A not too long ago, the ties between the Ling and Li family were dragged up again.

Everyone knew but that was it. Ling Tianya did not have any relationship with Li Chenfeng in any kind or form, and the marriage was canceled too. There was nothing tying the both of them together. It was a little over-the-line that Madam Ling reminded the Ruans about the situation with the Li family.

Not waiting for the Ruan family to speak, Ling Tao rushed to talk first. “Mom, those are all things from a long time ago. They are not important anymore. Is it really appropriate for you to talk about them now? Besides, aren’t you already aware of what happened with the Li family?”

“Without your arrogant daughter, Ling Qi, Yaya wouldn’t have had that horrifying situation with Li Chenfeng.” Ling Tao thought to himself. The thought angered Ling Tao. His own mother had the audacity to bring it up without even considering the situation!

Madam Ling naturally knew what Ling Tao actually meant, and her brows furrowed, continuing to rant, “What’s inappropriate about it? Aren’t we here to discussing the issues about both the families getting married? Besides, the dowry is a tradition passed down from olden times. No wonder there were issues with the Li family, it was a fact that they gave ten million dollars as dowry.” Madam Ling paused, murmuring, “Six years ago, our Tianya’s dowry was ten million dollars, but she’s definitely worth more now. Besides, the Ruan family is a lot richer than the Li family.”

Madam Ling’s words certainly changed the Ruan family’s perception of them. Madam Ruan and Wang Yazhi’s expressions definitely fell, fixing Madam Ling with a look and a frown. Ruan Qishan’s eyes showed a bit more disgust.

What Madam Ling meant, was that they were bargaining with the Ruan family. She was treating Ling Tianya like a tradable good.

Suddenly, a crisp voice spoke up. “Then, according to you, grandma, how much am I worth now?”

Ling Tianya’s eyes held absolutely no form of respect that one usually did for their grandmother. It might even be less respect than how she looked at beggars on the street, at least they had never hurt her,

Madam Ling frowned, clearly not satisfied with Ling Tianya’s attitude, but she did weakly speak. “It’s not been easy for the Ling family to raise a granddaughter either. For all that work it should at least be fifty million.”

Ling Tianya scoffed, and a pair of huge hands suddenly grasped onto her hands tightly under the table. She turned to look at them. The owner of those hands was the handsome man that was about to become her husband.

Ruan Zeyan’s eyes shone lazily, as though Madam Ling was a joke that wasn’t worth anything. If she wasn’t Ling Tianya’s grandmother in name and blood, he would have thrown the illogical lady out with no remorse at all.

Ling Tao watched as the disgust and distaste in the Ruan family’s faces got heavier and heavier, and he started to panic. That wasn’t something that he wanted to see. If he knew that things would turn out like that, he would never have brought his mother. His mother was the one that cared about the Ling family’s reputation the most usually, why would she suddenly behave so badly? Didn’t she know that her actions made her look like an absolute clown in the eyes of the Ruans?

Putting aside the fact that she was saying some awful, awful things, the “fifty million” that she mentioned was enough to make her a joke. Fifty million? She actually had the audacity to say that?

Madam Ling thought that she was making a ridiculously impossible and hard to accomplish request, but what she didn’t know that this fifty million was an absolute bargain, because the Ruans had wanted to offer the Lings a lot more than fifty million.

Ling Tianya coldly looked at her own biological grandmother, icily asking, “Grandmother, are you sure about fifty million?”
