Chapter 729: Call Her Miss Tianya
Madame Ling slowly awakened in the hospital ward. She was still receiving intravenous fluids. Xiao Hong sat by her bed feeling very tired. When she saw Madame Ling had woken up, she quickly asked, “Old Madam, how are you feeling now?”
Madame Ling opened her mouth and asked feebly, “The company... What happened to the company?”
She remembered that things were not progressing in favor of Ling Tao before she had passed out.
“Don’t worry, Old Madam. The company is fine. Big... Big Missy has control over the situation now...” Xiao Hong hesitated as she decided to address Ling Tianya as Big Missy.
Although Yu Meizi had revealed that Ling Tianya was not the Ling family’s child, legally, as Ling Tianya said, she was still a member of the Ling family for as long as Ling Tao was still noted as her father on legal documents. If Ling Tao didn’t cut all ties with her, Ling Tianya would still be the Big Missy of the Ling family.
When she heard how Xiao Hong addressed Ling Tianya, Madame Ling sighed. She had complicated feelings and she was deep in thought before she finally said to Xiao Hong, “From now on, you can call her Miss Tianya. It was how things used to be anyway. Sister Zhang only started calling her Big Missy to get on her good side. Everyone followed suit afterward.”
Madame Ling was obviously bothered that Ling Tianya was not biologically related to the Ling family. It was not her fault. Anyone would be bothered by this, and no one could pretend that nothing had happened.
Xiao Hong didn’t reply to Madame Ling. In her heart, no matter what her blood ties were, Ling Tianya would always be Ling Tao’s daughter. At the same time, she believed that Ling Tao would feel the same way as she did, Even if he found out that Ling Tianya was not his biological daughter, he would never disown her. She was certain about that.
Besides, Xiao Hong had her own plans. The Ling family was currently solely supported by Ling Tianya. The only way for them to pull through this difficult ordeal was with the help of Ling Tianya. If she changed the way she addressed Ling Tianya, she would put distance between them. Distance between them was not good for the Ling family or the Ling Group.
As she thought about that, she frowned. She understood these simple facts even as an outsider who was not officially part of the Ling family yet. Why didn’t Madame Ling, an elder of the Ling family, think of this?
She considered Madame Ling’s words and decided to remind the old lady, in case she said something nasty to Ling Tianya when they bumped into one another.
“Old madam, you better not be fooled by Yu Meizi’s words. Regardless of whether Big Missy and Tao are biologically related, she is still legally Tao’s daughter. She is the Ling family’s Big Missy, no doubt. Besides, the only reason that we managed to keep the company today is down to her. Right now, Tao is still in a coma in the hospital. Only Big Missy can help us now.”
Xiao Hong kept referring to Ling Tianya as the Big Missy and explained the pros and cons to Madame Ling. Madame Ling was no fool and understood what Xiao Hong was trying to say to her.
Finally, Madame Ling sighed and tears flowed from her eyes. “My poor son! He had two wives and neither of them were good to him...” It had turned out that Ling Tianxin was Ling Tao’s only child and she was mentally unsound. Madame Ling was frustrated and she gripped Xiao Hong’s hands tightly. “I’m counting on the child you’re carrying,” she sobbed. “You have to try your best and deliver the baby. I don’t care if it’s a baby boy or girl now. I’ll be glad if it’s Ling Tao’s child, healthy and happy.”
After all that had happened, Madame Ling was now afraid. All she hoped for was for Ling Tao to have his own child, his own biological child, even if it was a girl...
