That night, Gu Xiaoyue meticulously dressed up and shocked Ling Rufeng once more.
This time, she looked very elegant. She cut the appropriate white dress, outlining her sexy figure. Her exquisite collarbone made people want to leave marks on it.
Ling Rufeng hugged her waist, and tilted his head to bite her ear, a warm breath flowing into her ear.
"I suddenly regret it. Such a good night, I should like to do something."
Gu Xiaoyue naturally understood the meaning of his words and her face instantly flushed red. Seeing her in such a good mood, Ling Rufeng placed a kiss on her cheek.
The car drove steadily, and the closer they got to, the more uneasy they became.
As if he could still feel her uneasiness, Ling Rufeng held her hand tightly.
"No need, I'll be here."
Gu Xiaoyue's heart seemed to skip a beat, as if no one would say such a thing to her, causing her to feel especially at ease.
Reaching the Ling Family, that luxurious building caused her to think back to the day of her marriage.
When he got down, Ling Rufeng extended his hand out to her and she extended his hand into his palm. Then, she took her arm and walked in.
After opening the door, the group of people sitting on the sofa suddenly looked towards them.
Gu Xiaoyue was a little nervous, and didn't dare to raise her head to look at them.
Eldest Grandma was sitting on a chair and holding a black walking stick in her hand.
"Yo, this is Ruofeng's wife, he looks really pretty!"
A middle-aged woman stood up and walked up to him enthusiastically.
Gu Xiaoyue glanced at Ling Rufeng, obviously asking who the woman was.
"This is my uncle's wife."
Hearing Ling Rufeng's introduction, Gu Xiaoyue nodded her head, and obediently shouted: "Greetings, Aunt!"
Seeing her like this, Zhao Shuya also felt that she liked her more and more. "Aiya, she's so cute!"
Eldest Grandma snorted coldly, "Once you enter the Ling Family gate, you must have the rules of Ling Family. It is not proper for you not to pay any attention to your seniors!"
The Eldest Grandma had always emphasized tradition. Gu Xiaoyue had already angered her to begin with, and now, she was even more unhappy.
Ling Rufeng stood out and said: "Grandma, it was only because Xiaoyue was sick a while ago that she didn't come to visit you all. Isn't it the same now?"
Seeing that Ling Rufeng was biased towards her, and thinking of the conversation back then, the Eldest Grandma became even angrier.
"In my opinion, etiquette should be learned. If it really doesn't work, then just move in with me for a few days!"
If she lived with the Eldest Grandma, wouldn't she not even have bones left?
She tugged on Ling Rufeng's sleeve, obviously asking for his help.
Ling Rufeng smiled at her, then patted his hands.
"Eldest Grandma, Xiaoyue has been working in my company recently, I'm afraid this method is a little inappropriate!"
It was obvious that he was protecting this woman. Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell at a glance.
Although Eldest Grandma didn't like Gu Xiaoyue, this grandson was someone she grew up with. Seeing that she had a wife and forgot her granny's appearance, she felt a burst of discomfort in her heart.
"That's right. Now that my grandson is old and has a wife, he'll forget about my old bones. If you feel that what I've done was wrong, you can also point it out directly. I won't say anything!"
As soon as Eldest Grandma spoke these words, everyone present couldn't help but hold their breaths.
It seems that Eldest Grandma has to go against this woman. It seems that this new granddaughter-in-law will not be easy to deal with!
Gu Xiaoyue was also getting anxious. Who didn't know that the Eldest Grandma was targeting her? If it was really because she made their relationship worse, then she really wouldn't be able to continue staying in the Ling Family.
"Eldest Grandma, that's not what Ruofeng meant. I came here to learn etiquette, I hope Eldest Grandma does not dislike me."
Hearing Gu Xiaoyue's words, Eldest Grandma's complexion finally calmed down a little. Seeing this situation, Zhao Shuya hurriedly came over to ease the atmosphere.
"Aiyo, we're all family. What's wrong, is the meal ready? I'm hungry! "
"Alright, alright, we'll be able to eat it soon!" A servant at the side quickly spoke up.
Gu Xiaoyue bit her lips, and only the two of them could hear the voice, and said: "Apologies, I seem to have gotten into trouble again!"
Ling Rufeng felt a little heartache. He rubbed her head and said softly: "It's not your fault. You did a good job."
At this moment, a youth with dyed yellow hair walked in from outside. He was chewing gum and wearing a colorful outfit.
As soon as he appeared, everyone in the hall became furious.
"Ling Yuan, what are you doing? Who told you to dress like this?"
Ling Yuan acted like he did not care, and when he saw Gu Xiaoyue, his eyes immediately lit up.
Not long after, the man appeared in front of Gu Xiaoyue, his speed shocking.
"Hey, you're my cousin. You're pretty good-looking!"
He wanted to reach out and pinch her cheek.
But there was another person who was faster than him, and that person was Ling Rufeng.
Ling Rufeng grabbed his hand, and with a slight use of force, Ling Yuan immediately cried out in pain.
"Brother, brother …" I was wrong, let go of me now! "
Ling Rufeng sneered, and then pushed him away.
Ling Yuan rubbed his hands, and muttered with dissatisfaction: "Didn't I just want to touch it? "Bro, do you really need to use so much force?"
"Serves you right!" Ling Rufeng shook off her hand with force and coldly spat out a word.
Ling Yuan, "..."
However, his cousin had always been cold to everything, yet today he was so abnormal. It seemed that he cared a lot about his cousin.
Thus, he jumped behind Gu Xiaoyue and made a face at him.
"Cousin, look at my cousin, he actually bullied me!"
When Gu Xiaoyue heard him say that, she could not help but burst out laughing, causing Ling Rufeng's face to turn even darker.
What did this woman think? Did he raise an ingrate?
Later, Gu Xiaoyue found out that Ling Yuan was the son of his youngest uncle. He was only twenty years old, and was currently in his third year.
However, from the looks of it, his personality seemed to be a bit rebellious. He shouldn't be a rebellious person for a long time, right?
However, Ling Rufeng had also talked about Ling Yuan with her. Turns out Ling Yuan was also a rather pitiful person, his mother was seriously ill while his father went out everyday to look for women, causing the whole house to be in a state of unrest.
In the end, when Ling Yuan's mother died, he hated his father to the bones. To make him angry, he did all these things.
It was indeed rather pitiful, Gu Xiaoyue thought, but she couldn't help but feel a tinge of pity for her. After all, the things that had happened between them were somewhat similar.
They were both married to the wrong man, but in the end, they were all filled with regret. Such a sad and beautiful story was truly depressing.
