Chapter 1042 - The Real and Fake Young Miss (3)

Wang Manpeng squinted his eyes slightly and then walked toward Wang Mandy, examining her. Pretending to be nonchalant, he asked, “Little Yaya, why did you leave for so long? Uncle Ruan has become anxious waiting.”

The woman tenderly smiled and said in a hoarse voice, “After I left the kitchen, I returned to the nursery. I wanted to see if my son was awake. If he was awake, I wanted to bring him over to avoid wasting time.”

Hearing the woman’s hoarse voice as well as the things she said, Wang Manpeng nodded in understanding. He then looked at the carriage in Aunty Wang’s hand and looked at the woman questioningly.

Upon seeing the woman nod slightly, Wang Manpeng finally smiled.

When Ruan Qishan, who originally wore a pinched expression, saw the tiny rice ball, his face became warm. He took the child from his daughter-in-law, smiling and carried him to greet the guests who were attending the birthday banquet.

Only Wang Yazhi and Madam Ruan noticed that this time, the tiny rice ball didn’t cry after being carried by Ling Tianya and acted very calmly.

However, the most important thing right then was when the banquet was going to follow its intended course. Ruan Zeyan’s phone wouldn’t connect, and he was late. It was almost twelve. They couldn’t keep delaying it.

Therefore, at this time, the Ruan family’s young lady once again opened her mouth. “How about we begin the banquet first and not wait for Zeyan? After it’s over, our family can have a meal together. It’ll be the same.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Manpeng’s forehead tightened, and he shot Wang Mandy a warning glance.

“Why not wait? Let’s wait a little while. After all, Zeyan is Uncle Ruan’s son. It’s not appropriate to celebrate if he isn’t here,” Wang Manpeng refuted.

Madam Ruan was growing impatient and directly said, “What makes it inappropriate? We’re not waiting for him and should start now. We can’t starve everyone here because we’re waiting for him. That won’t be fun!”

Since Madam Ruan directly had her mouth, no one could argue.

“You too, Ling girl. You’re the organizer of today’s birthday party. Everything was planned by you. However, you conveniently made an excuse and ran to the back. Then, you said that you went to the nursery. We already said that after the tiny rice ball woke up, Aunty Wang would bring him over, so why did you have to go? You left us all here and didn’t have any entertainment. You could have hired a band to liven things up or let the guests dance. You set up all these round tables. Since Ruan Zeyan didn’t come, we can’t even serve the food. Our entire group of guests just sat here looking at each other. How annoying is that!”

Finally, Madam Ruan could no longer endure it and complained to Ling Tianya of her disappointment. “In the past, you were always very attentive and serious. This time, why did you commit such simple mistakes? If, in the past, you said that two days wasn’t enough, then we could have gone and found a hotel to host it in. Why did we have to hold it at home?”

When Ling Tianya heard Madam Ruan’s nagging, her eyes immediately became red. Ling Tianya was extremely happy that she was able to hear her grandma’s voice again.

When Madam Ruan saw Ling Tianya’s eyes reddening, she believed that it was because she had scolded her and immediately felt bad. Therefore, Madam Ruan sighed. “Eh, Grandma doesn’t mean anything by it. You also know that in this house, Grandma loves you the most. I’m the one who understands you the most. However, I’ve noticed something—why is it that over this period of time, I no longer understand you?”
