Wen Ruan had mixed emotions after seeing Ye Wanwan’s post.
She had misunderstood her father in her previous life. She had believed that he only cared about Liu Shuying and Ye Wanwan. It was not until he dragged his paralyzed body from a car accident to kneel in front of them on her behalf that she realized his feelings. He had begged them to release her after finding out that she was kidnapped by them. He had told them that he was willing to die on her behalf. It was then when she knew that her father loved her.
Liu Shuying must have used some tactic to make her father, who loved her and her grandma so much, unwilling to come home!
Wanwan glanced at the location tag on Ye Wanwan’s post and got the chauffeur to take her there.
The seafood restaurant had been opened by Ling Fei’er’s family. The moment Wen Ruan got there, she saw Wen Jinzhang, Liu Shuying, and Ye Wanwan sitting by the window.
Liu Shuying was feeding Wen Jinzhang some crab meat.
When she saw that, Wen Ruan felt her eyes sting.
That woman appeared to love her father so deeply but she did not show any mercy when she dealt with him later!
From where she was sitting, Ye Wanwan could see Wen Ruan at the entrance. Seeing her expression, Ye Wanwan thought that Wen Ruan was jealous and felt happy inside.
So what if she had chased her mother and her out? Uncle Wen’s heart was still with them!
“Ruanruan, you’re here?” Ye Wanwan stood up with a smile.
Liu Shuying turned back and saw Wen Ruan. She stood up and looked at her amiably. “What are you doing here so late at night?”
Wen Ruan addressed her obediently and quickly went over to sit beside Wen Jinzhang.
She held Wen Jinzhang’s arm and shook it coquettishly. “Dad, you didn’t come home yesterday night. Grandma and I missed you.”
Wen Jinzhang looked at his obedient daughter and stroked her head dotingly. “I had to work overnight yesterday. Since I was close to your Auntie’s place, I went over to spend the night there.”
Wen Ruan knew that was just an excuse but she did not expose Wen Jinzhang.
“I don’t feel safe without you at home, Dad.” Wen Ruan pouted coquettishly.
Wen Jinzhang smiled. “Silly.”
Liu Shuying brought a cup of milk over and sat on the other side of Wen Jinzhang. She held his hand naturally and said with a smile, “Ruanruan, it’s your monthly test the day after tomorrow, right? Why don’t you spend the night at my place? You can ask Wanwan to teach you the things that you don’t know.”
Wen Ruan pouted. “I don’t dare to ask Sister Wanwan. I’m afraid she would bruise my ego yet again!”
Ye Wanwan’s face changed. She wanted to blow up but Liu Shuying shook her head at her.
“I heard that Ruanruan had been very obedient recently. Your grades would definitely improve for this monthly test, right? Wanwan said that she was going to try to get into the top three in the school for this test. I am really assured when it comes to her studies.”
Liu Shuying was implying that no matter how much Wen Ruan improves, she would never be able to be amongst the top rung in the school.
So she was nothing compared to Ye Wanwan.
The thought of Wen Ruan’s grades made Wen Jinzhang shake his head in disappointment.
“Dad, if I can also be in the top three in the school, can you promise me something?” Wen Ruan asked.
The air grew awkwardly silent after Wen Ruan said that.
Ye Wanwan covered her mouth. She had almost laughed out loud.
Wen Ruan, this airhead, was actually aiming for the top three?
How ridiculous! Didn’t she feel embarrassed saying that? However, Wen Ruan had always been thick-skinned. It would be weird if she felt self-conscious.
Ye Wanwan looked away with despise in her eyes.
She pulled her phone out and took a picture of the seafood restaurant before posting it on her feed.
She changed the settings for her post so that only Ling Fei’er could see it.
I am Wanwan: [A little flustered!]
Soon, Ling Fei’er liked the photo and commented.
Feifei’er’s reply: [Star student, what are you flustered about?]
I am Wanwan: [Crying face emoji. Little sister Ruan came over just now and told Uncle Wen that she was aiming to be amongst the top three in school for this monthly test. I’d better do more practice questions and work harder.]
