Chapter 718: Chapter 721: Transformation

Hearing this, Zhenxiu, who had just felt a bit embarrassed, couldn't help but let out a "pfft" and laugh, clutching her belly as her silvery laughter filled the carriage.

Lin Ruoxi, trying to maintain her composure, cleared her throat a few times, but her cheeks still flushed slightly. "What's so funny? If you don't want to say it, forget it. I was just casually mentioning it so you wouldn't feel too self-conscious."

Zhenxiu nodded, showing an "I understand everything" expression. She leaned towards Lin Ruoxi's ear and whispered, "Sister Ruoxi, let me tell you, Brother Yang is actually very soft-hearted. You just need to..."

After whispering for a while, giving detailed instructions, Zhenxiu moved away from Lin Ruoxi's ear.

Lin Ruoxi bit her lip, blushing as she asked, "Will this really work?"

Zhenxiu mumbled, "It will work! Sister Ruoxi, don't you often watch Korean dramas? Just imitate the actresses there a bit and you'll be fine. You're always just watching purely for entertainment and not learning from them, which is why you keep being so passive."

Lin Ruoxi frowned slightly, remaining silent. To be honest, she had never thought of getting inspiration from TV dramas, but Zhenxiu's words did remind her.

When the car arrived at Zhonghai No. 1 High School, Zhenxiu got out, waved to Lin Ruoxi, gave an encouraging look, and then happily ran into the school gate.

Lin Ruoxi smiled warmly, speechless, just about to drive back when her gaze landed on two familiar figures.

In the parking space in front of her car was a black limited edition Land Rover. Beside the tall SUV stood a familiar tall woman, earnestly advising a young, beautiful girl who bore some resemblance to her.

The girl pouted, looking impatient but had no choice but to listen obediently, making it quite amusing.

The mother and daughter pair were none other than Tang Wan and Tangtang, who had just returned to Zhonghai from Yandu.

Tang Wan was merely telling her daughter not to be too conceited and to make good use of the last few days of review time, among other things. Tangtang, having heard these admonitions countless times, naturally had a poor attitude.

Finally, even Tang Wan felt helpless. She waved her daughter off, letting her go inside on her own, allowing Tangtang to breathe a sigh of relief and quickly run towards the school gate.

Tang Wan smiled helplessly, shaking her head. Watching her daughter's playful figure, she was filled with boundless affection until Tangtang entered the school gate. Only then did she turn around, ready to drive to her company.

But just as she turned, she caught sight of the red Bentley beside her out of the corner of her eye.

Lin Ruoxi shook her head, her clear eyes revealing, "I want to spend more time with him."

Tang Wan's breath caught, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly. She knew exactly who "him" referred to, but Lin Ruoxi suddenly saying this in front of her, she couldn't tell if it was a "declaration" or just a casual remark.

Feeling a headache, Tang Wan thought, Yang Chen, your wife is much harder to deal with than you. But being a proud woman herself, Tang Wan kept her composure, smiling, "In that case, maybe another time."

Tang Wan was about to say goodbye when Lin Ruoxi suddenly said, "Although I want to spend time with him, we can still have morning tea."

This sudden turn left Tang Wan momentarily speechless and awkward.

Ten minutes later, the two sat across from each other in a Cantonese tea house near the high school. Although they had both had breakfast, they ordered some simple snacks and tea, finding it quite pleasant.

Sipping tea, Lin Ruoxi frowned slightly, finding it a bit strong. She put down her cup and looked at Tang Wan's face. "I heard you were unwell earlier. How are you now?"

Tang Wan smiled, "Thank you for your concern. I'm fully recovered now."

"No need to thank me. I did nothing. If you must thank someone, it should be my husband," Lin Ruoxi replied.

Tang Wan nodded silently, her heart a bit stifled. Lin Ruoxi's words sounded polite but clearly defined their identities.

If a lover helps with an illness, it's natural. But if an unfamiliar person saves you, gratitude is necessary. And this person, unrelated to oneself, happens to be someone else's husband.

Furthermore, with Lin Ruoxi's straightforward way of calling "husband," it made Tang Wan uncomfortable.

But Tang Wan was not someone to be easily provoked. Since Lin Ruoxi had already shown her cards, Tang Wan responded, "Your husband isn't someone who can be easily satisfied with just a thank you. He's quite sharp. He wouldn't help without enough benefits. You better keep a tight rein on him, or else patients like me will be indebted to him for a lifetime for his help."

A cold glint flashed in Lin Ruoxi's moist eyes, her heart certain that Yang Chen must have done something to Tang Wan. What a despicable liar! He had acted so innocent before he left!

A wave of grievance and helplessness surged within her, but her self-control in front of others was exceptional, so she didn't show much of it. She continued calmly, "I don't plan to rein him in. I am his wife, not his mother. I believe it won't take long for him to learn contentment on his own. You can rest assured."
