Chapter 1193: Begin Your Performance (1)
It was the same shopping mall and the same café they went last time. When Lina arrived, Ling Tianya had already ordered the afternoon tea.
Look at the refreshments on the table, Lina smiled and sat down. “How did you know that I like these?”
“You like these?” Ling Tianya smiled as well. “What a happy coincidence. I just ordered whatever I liked. I thought that if you did not like these, I’d just order some other refreshments for you.”
“I do like these a lot.” Lina looked at Ling Tianya. “Actually, I love things that are sour and sweet. But I have started to feel my age these years, and I don’t have much time to work out as my work is rather busy. I have to control what I eat to stay fit.”
Ling Tianya chuckled after she heard what Lina said.
“What are you laughing about?” Lina asked.
“President Li, we have so many things in common. My favorite flavor is sour and sweet, as well. My favorite dishes are Xihu sour-sweet fish and sweet and sour ribs.”
“Exactly!” Lina’s eyes lit up immediately. “These two dishes are my favorites as well. When my father was still alive, these two dishes were his best dishes. I have had these dishes since I was a little girl. It was the taste of my childhood.”
Lina’s father passed away soon after their whole family migrated to Country D. All these years, Lina and her mother depended on each other to stay alive. Lina was about to believe that she would spend her entire life like this until, not long ago, before her mother passed away, she told Lina that Lina’s real daughter was still alive. Lina felt that hope was restored in her life once again. That was why she put everything behind her and came to this country to find her daughter.
However, she was more or less disappointed that the daughter she found turned out to be Xu Cheng. It was nothing what she expected her daughter to be like. Just as they always said, the higher your expectations, the harder you’d fall.
Lina stared at Ling Tianya. She was everything Lina dreamt of as being her daughter.
Clever, wise, independent.
Living a full life with her own career and her own family.
“Tianya, I did not know we have so many things in common,” Lina murmured.
Ling Tianya nodded. “Yes, I did not know that as well.”
At that time, Ling Tianya’s phone rang. It was Ms. Wang. She sent a photo of Little Rice Dumpling to Ling Tianya.
Ling Tianya’s face was filled with maternal love when she saw the adorable Little Rice Dumpling on her screen.
“Is it your son?” Lina asked as she noticed the affection on Ling Tianya’s face.
“Yes, it is.” Ling Tianya showed her phone to Lina. “He’s Ruan Zeyan’s and my son. His full name is Ruan Mingxiao, and we call him Little Rice Dumpling.”
Ling Tianya told Little Rice Dumpling’s name to Lina with no hesitation or doubt.
Lina took the phone and had a look at Little Rice Dumpling on the screen. Lina’s heart melted when she saw the chubby, adorable Little Rice Dumpling.
“Oh my! He is so cute!” Lina fell in love with this cute boy just by looking at the picture. She looked at Little Rice Dumpling as if he was her grandson.
Of course, Ling Tianya was pleased that Lina complimented her son.
“Who named him?”
“Ruan Zeyan’s grandmother.”
Lina nodded. “A great name. It seems the Ruan family has high expectations for this child.”
Lina looked at the photo and would not let go of the phone. “Take him out with you sometime and let me meet him. I adore this child.”
Lina’s eyes glimmered when she said that. Ling Tianya could tell that Lina was not just polite but that she adored Little Rice Dumpling.
