Chapter 1218 - I Am Your Father-in-Law (16）

After half an hour, Cheng Chen’s phone finally unlocked. His first reaction was to call Ling Tianya.

In the end...

Back in the Ruan Family manor, Ruan Zeyan and Ling Tianya were in their bedroom.

Ling Tianya had long fallen asleep, snuggled up in the arms of Ruan Zeyan. Basically, whenever she went to bed, Ling Tianya would set her phone to “do not disturb” mode. There were only some contacts who could still reach her during this mode. Cheng Chen was one of them.

The phone’s vibrations did not wake Ling Tianya immediately, but instead, the man holding her awoke.

Ruan Zeyan opened his eyes. In the darkness of the night, as he watched Ling Tianya’s phone light up with Cheng Chen’s name, rage bubbled within him.

He knew that Ling Tianya set her phone to “do not disturb” mode at night, and with this in place, Cheng Chen still could reach her. Ruan Zeyan’s eyes glinted dangerously.

In the car, Cheng Chen was anxiously waiting for Ling Tianya to pick up his call. He wanted to tell Ling Tianya what he just learned as soon as possible. He wanted to let her know that her biological parents did not abandon her on purpose back then and that they had no intention of selling her away. It was only because they didn’t know of her existence; they didn’t know that she was still alive.

Now that he knew of the truth, he’d do his best to make it up to her.

Finally, the call went through. Cheng Chen hurriedly shouted into the phone, “Tianya, have you fallen asleep? Hear me out...”

“There’s nothing to talk about.”

Cheng Chen paused, the voice on the other end was Ruan Zeyan’s voice instead of Ling Tianya’s.

“Ruan Zeyan, quick, pass the phone to Ling Tianya,” Cheng Chen said hurriedly.

Ruan Zeyan’s gaze turned cold at the way Cheng Chen addressed her as “Tianya.” They sure seemed close.

“Cheng Chen, don’t let me find out that you’re calling my wife so late in the night ever again. If you do it again, I’ll no longer give you any face,” Ruan Zeyan said coldly.

He wasn’t trying to threaten Cheng Chen, but he was warning him directly. Ruan Zeyan was dead serious, and he verbalized his very thoughts.

Cheng Chen’s every move had crossed the line. Similarly, Ruan Zeyan had little tolerance to anything concerning Ling Tianya.

After saying his piece, Ruan Zeyan hung up immediately, not giving Cheng Chen a chance to answer. He then blacklisted Cheng Chen’s contact.

After Ruan Zeyan finished everything, he placed down Ling Tianya’s phone, lying down once more.

The woman on the bed never woke up. Once Ruan Zeyan laid down, Ling Tianya who was deep in dreamland was just like a little kitten, snuggling back into his arms. After adjustment and after feeling warm and secure once more, both of them drifted to dreamland once more.

Upon feeling the gentle body of his wife in his arms, the jealousy and anger Ruan Zeyan previously felt evaporated. He stretched his arms around Ling Tianya, slowly closing his eyes.

In the car, Cheng Chen’s expression darkened. Ruan Zeyan had actually hung up on him after delivering such a stern warning.

In a rage, Cheng Chen hurriedly tried to call Ling Tianya once more, but realized that he couldn’t reach her. Needless to say, Ruan Zeyan definitely blacklisted his contact.

Just then, Cheng Chen narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Rascal, good going! After warning me, you still blacklisted my contact?

He had never feared Ruan Zeyan in the past, and he will not now, even with his warning.

For now, since he couldn’t reach Ling Tianya, Cheng Chen proceeded to call Lina, who was back in the hotel.
