As for Ruan Zeyan, she had thought it through. It was just a dream that her parents had weaved into her, and it wasn’t even a good one — the Guan family had always been the overly attached one. Ruan Zeyan had never promised her anything, had never even given her a friendly face.
But at that moment when Ruan Zeyan had chosen Ling Tianya, everyone had just redirected their hate onto her.
Guan Meiyi looked at Ling Tianya, lounging on the sofa and happily enjoying her fruits. She had gone through so much, and yet she looked so... rxed. For so many years, she had never paid Ling Tianya too much mind, Lian Tianya had unknowingly trumped her a long time ago.
But the real thing that had caused her doom was her coboration with Huang Yuqing to incriminate Ling Tianya. Lian Tianya had seen through their n, and she ended up bing the one in the spotlight.
Thinking about it, it really was like what Ling Tianya said. She had never actively caused them harm, they were just asking for it.
Watching as Guan Meiyi’s face showed every single emotion that she had cycled through her head, Ling Tianya rubbed her hands together and stood. “I had never thought of hurting you. Other than knowing that your personality was a little off putting, you’re the most innocent one. So, why should you be apologizing for your mother’s mistake?”
Guan Meiyi let out a bitter smile. She wasn’t just apologizing for her mother’s sake, she was about to give up her whole life for it.
“Tianya, just treat it as though I’m begging you as your cousin. Please forgive my mother.”
As long as Ling Tianya didn’t say that she forgave Ling Qi, Guan Meiyi would never dare to bring her out from the mental institution. She was worried that she would have an even worse ending than when she was inside of it.
Faced with Guan Meiyi’s pleads, Ling Tianya didn’t reply and turned to head towards the door.
“Yaya... I’m begging you...” Guan Meiyi gritted her teeth, as though the Guan Meiyi that had taken no one into consideration was dead.
Ling Tianya opened the door, stopping for a moment. “Don’t let me see her, ever again.”
Ling Tianya left then.
Guan Meiyi had sat there, taking a long time to understand what really happened before letting her tears finally fall. She sobbed into the empty room, “I got it... I got it...”
She knew this: Ling Tianya has agreed to not go after her mother.
From the start, Ling Tianya had understood why Guan Meiyi had apologized to her. Dhe had guessed that Guan Meiyi had wanted to bring her out and was worried that she would continue to exact revenge on Ling Qi.
Ling Tianya had said thatst sentence not because she had really forgiven Ling Qi, but instead because she didn’t want to waste her time and effort on people that did not matter. Instead of her exacting revenge on Ling Qi, the feeling of helplessness and having nothing to her name aftering out from the mental hospital would be the biggest form of torture on the prideful Ling Qi.
Ling Tianya had never denied the fact that she was not a kind person. Being overly kind to others meant being cruel to yourself, so she would rather be an evil person.
The moment she walked out of the dressing room, Ling Tianya spotted Ruan Zeyan sitting a ways away from her, with his chin on his hand, the coldness of his face deterring everyone froming up and striking a conversation with him.
It wasn’t until he saw Ling Tianyae back did his expression rx. “Why did you take so long?”
Ling Tianya sat beside him. “It’s girl talk, of course we would take longer.”
“You spoke with her?” Ruan Zeyan’s brows went up.
“What else would we do? Fight? They are having their wedding today. It wouldn’t be polite to start something,” Ling Tianya teased.
Ruan Zeyan’s eyes filled with love, holding this woman in his arms. He loved watching her innocent face after she’d put someone in their ce.
