Chapter 197: What Kind of Person is He (7)
Du Gang grabbed the soup bowl in Mandy’s hand and placed it on the table. He glared at Mandy and walked out of the room. Reluctantly, Mandy followed Du Gang out too.
When he saw Mandy and Du Gang had left the room, Ruan Zeyan seized Ling Tianya’s hand, “What’s going on?”
Prior to that, Ling Tianya had been resisting him and alienating him, so in the view of Ruan Zeyan, Ling Tianya’s new-found enthusiasm was very abnormal.
Ling Tianya put down the bowl in her hand and said meaningfully, “Mandy is the sister of Manpeng, right?”
Ruan Zeyan’s eyes flashed with a hint of darkness as he replied distantly, “Yes, that’s right.”
“Manpeng died in order to save you, so now you take care of his sister, right?”
Ruan Zeyan raised his brow and his voice was a little cold. “Who told you this? Du Gang?”
He still remembers what Gu Zhiqian once said to him. “Ruan Zeyan, Ling Tianya must not know what you are really like. Are you sure she would be still willing to marry you after she sees your true colors?”
True. The real him was even crueler than the one he showed to Ling Tianya, because the world he was in was a cruel world.
Ling Tianya shook her head. “It was not Du Gang, it was Gu Zhiqian.” Ling Tianya didn’t try to hide it. She knew even if she didn’t say it, Du Gang would tell Ruan Zeyan what happened anyway, which would only cause unnecessary trouble.
The man in the hospital bed turned more and more gloomy. There was no doubt that Gu Zhiqian’s actions had offended him.
Ruan Zeyan’s eyes looked deep and dark, “Ling Tianya, I am giving you a choice. If you are not willing, I can break off our engagement and I will let you go.”
He stared at Ling Tianya with those eyes that looked like black holes, waiting for Ling Tianya’s answer. Before, he had never given Ling Tianya the right to choose. Everything was always in accordance with his own will; the possessiveness and entanglement over her was overbearing. He handed the right to choose to Ling Tianya for the first time. The anxious feeling of losing control made him uncomfortable. Ruan Zeyan felt like he was waiting for a death sentence.
“I don’t like that Mandy. I hated her when I was at the Huxin Island. I understand that her brother died for you and you have the responsibility to take care of her. Taking care of people is different between men and women. In the future, she is not allowed to get anywhere within a yard from you!”
Ruan Zeyan’s expression relaxed and seemed rather surprised by the unexpected words from Ling Tianya.
Ling Tianya continued to mutter while rolling her eyes, “When I came in, I saw her holding a soup bowl and paying attention to you. If people didn’t know, they might think she was your fiancée. Ruan Zeyan, do you know how attractive you are to women?”
Ruan Zeyan’s eyes seemed to change. He watched Ling Tianya hold up the bowl again.
“Do you want more?”
“Yes.” Ruan Zeyan raised his hand to hold Ling Tianya’s chin and kissed her just like that.
Ling Tianya was shocked. Why didn’t the man care about his injuries? After losing much blood and going through surgeries, how could he still be so strong?
The kiss literally took Ling Tianya’s breath away, and Ruan Zeyan let her loose after a long moment.
Ruan Zeyan held the woman’s blushing face and spoke in a hoarse voice. “This is your choice now, and you can no longer regret it.”
Looking into Ruan Zeyan’s eyes, Ling Tianya could clearly see her own reflection. “Ruan Zeyan, will you believe me in the future no matter what happens?”
“Yes.” The man’s tone was determined, and his eyes were as bright as stars.
“Well, as long as you believe in me, I will not regret it.”
