Chapter 1224: Exposed?2?
Huang Ying never would’ve thought that it was Old Lady Ruan. She went still, shocked, before finally standing up from the couch, an awkward expression gracing her features.
“What brings you here?”
Old Lady Ruan scoffed, the questions they both asked were the same!
Old Lady Ruan scanned the surroundings from the very moment she stepped into the residence till the moment she made it to the living room. She could tell that the duo ate well, with every meal of theirs being delivered to the door. Since the caretaker went to take care of the old lady, she no longer had the time to do housework. Back when the old lady was still home, Huang Ying still did housework. But now, she no longer bothered to.
Don’t even mention Xu Cheng. It was clear she didn’t want to do anything. Anyway, she was soon going to move to Europe to live in a luxurious house, so it’ll suffice if this house just looks decent.
Old Lady Ruan’s expression turned cold, making her way to the couch. Donning a deep blue cheongsam, topped with a white cardigan, Old Lady Ruan looked opulent.
Huang Ying narrowed her eyes, this was the sight of Old Lady Ruan that she despised the most. Back then, Old Lady Ruan had scolded her for her evil intentions, saying that she didn’t have the right to enter the Ruan Family and to stay away from Ruan Qishan. She looked the same way as she did back then.
And till today, Huang Ying still remembered the look in Old Lady Ruan’s eyes, the look of contempt. She still had the same look in her eyes.
Huang Ying gritted her teeth inwardly. She hated Old Lady Ruan’s guts.
“Huang Ying, what are both of you up to these days? Why aren’t you guys going to the hospital to take care of your grandmother?” Old Lady Ruan didn’t bother with unnecessary chatter, cutting straight to the chase.
“Why would Grandmother require our care? Didn’t you hire the best caretakers for her? Besides, even the in-house caretaker is there. With so many people by her side taking good care of her, what good would Xu Cheng and I be?” Huang Ying asked mystifyingly.
“Huang Ying, what bullshit are you sprouting! Me hiring caretakers for the old lady isn’t a reason for you to justify both of you just abandoning her like that! If that’s the case, then I shall lay off the caretakers tomorrow. I’ll let you and Xu Cheng take care of her, since I’ve heard that Xu Cheng has resigned from Zhiya Entertainment anyways!” Old Lady Ruan shifted her gaze to Xu Cheng.
Old Lady Ruan’s words made Huang Ying rattled. “Hey, then based on your words Aunt, you’re the closest to my grandmother. That means, regarding the care of Grandmother, wouldn’t you carry the greatest duty? Besides, based on my grandmother’s very words, she had said that you, Aunt, owed her. If she had not made you marry into the Ruan Family, how would you be where you’re at today?” Huang Ying raised her chin, directly looking into Old Lady Ruan’s eyes. “Besides, if we’re talking about care, how would the care Xu Cheng and I provide compare to those professional caretakers? If we had made my grandmother’s condition worse in any way, we couldn’t possibly take responsibility.”
“Bullshit!” Old Lady Ruan flew into a rage. Huang Ying was clearly just arguing self-righteously. Her mystifying words made it clear that she was shirking her responsibilities!
Ling Tianya couldn’t bear it any longer, “Aunt, I think you’ve misunderstood. Grandmother only wanted for both of you to care more for the old lady. Although the caretakers are able to take good care of her, as you both had said, they are all outsiders. Surely, they won’t be able to give the old lady the familial care she craves. Besides, the doctor had also mentioned that having the company of family would boost the old lady’s recovery process.” Ling Tianya paused. “And for the medical costs, you won’t need to worry about it, Aunt. The Ruan Family will bear all the costs required for the treatment and aftercare the old lady needs.”
