Not too long after Madame Ling had left the dinner table, a maid brought up the alcohol. “Madame Ling was afraid that this might not be enough for everyone, so she asked me to bring more.”
Seeing the wine that Madame Ling had actually asked someone to bring over, Ling Tianya raised her brows as she looked at Ruan Zeyan, as though saying, Look, I said my grandmother would definitely do something to force my father to do her bidding.
Ruan Zeyan smiled, filled with love.
For his business, Ling Tao had to often go out for business dinners, and he was fairly good with his alcohol. Just with the amount on their table, it was absolutely impossible to make him drunk to the point of delirium. Madame Ling definitely would have realized that too, so other than alcohol, she definitely will find a way to add some other ingredients, like aphrodisaics.
Ling Tianya was not too worried that there was something in the wine, since both her and Ruan Zeyan were consuming it too, and Madame Ling wouldn’t be stupid to the point where she would do something to the wine. Then the only place that she can do something in would be the cup.
When the maid poured them the wine, they had also changed out their cups.
“Why did you change the cups?” Ling Tianya asked.
The maid was stunned. “Madame Ling had requested it. She mentioned that she’s worried your glasses were dirty, so she asked me to change them.”
“Okay, got it.” Ling Tianya waved her hands to let the maid leave before casually switching Ling Tao and her own glass around.
Ling Tao didn’t understand it. “Why did you change it?”
Ling Tianya shrugged and smiled. “I just like this cup!”
Ling Tao thought that Ling Tianya was acting cute with him, and his face flooded with glee. “You little lass, you’re still acting cute with me right before your fiancé!”
Ling Tianya smiled but didn’t comment further. It’s alright even if he misunderstood. IIt would be a lot better than telling him that the cup was unsafe and that he would end up violated tonight if he had used it.
Because she knew that there was something up with the cup, Ling Tianya didn’t drink and merely sat there to join in the conversation.
As they drank, Ling Tao was getting a little tipsy and started to get more relaxed too and not as nervous as before. Ruan Zeyan didn’t continue to keep up a cold facade toward his future father-in-law too. Everybody present became harmonious.
On the other hand, Madame Ling and Liu Fen were a completely different story.
In Madame Ling’s room, Liu Fen paced back and forth anxiously, glancing at the clock from time to time. “Madame Ling, why have they not ended yet?”
“What are you panicking about? They’ll end when they end!” Madame Ling was not worried at all. There was a look of happiness on her face as though she was already imagining seeing two kids waving towards her.
“The drug will work, right?” Liu Fen was worried. Ifthe drug was of completely no use, then wouldn’t they all have done all these for nothing?
Right then, the maid came to inform them that they had been dismissed downstairs, and Ling Tao had returned to his room.
Glee sprung up onto both Madame Ling and Liu Fen’s face, and Liu Fen rushed to speak. “How is the Chairman right now?”
The maid thought for a while. “He’s a little red in the face and wobbly on his feet.”
Liu Fen got excited at her words, and her eyes practically shone while she looked at Madame Ling.
Madame Ling waved the maid away, smiling. “The drug probably worked. Go and get ready, then go to Ling Tao’s room after a while!”
Liu Fen started getting shy but she nodded quickly. “Got it!”
Liu Fen returned to her room and quickly changed into a nice-looking set of undergarments. Then she gave it another thought, before taking it off again. The underwear had clips that they would still have to take off later, and that was just an unnecessary step. So, Liu Fen just skipped that step and just went to Ling Tao’s room with a bathrobe over her naked body.
