Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At Liang Xianghes house in a certain ministrys compound.
After returning to Yanjing, Liang Ruoxu planned to go home.
However, something happened in the morning that made Liang Ruoxu give up on going home.
Because her relations.h.i.+p with Lin Yi had been exposed online.
Shen Shuyi was calm after hearing the news. She had known about this long ago, but she kept it to herself and waited for Lin Yi to deal with it himself.
However, she did not expect to be exposed at this juncture.
Shen Shuyi could smell a conspiracy here.
However, Liang Cunxiao and Liang Xianghe were furious about the situation. If it hadnt been for her grandmother, Yang Yuhua, protecting her, she would have faced a severe scolding!
Despite their anger, the Liang family mobilized all their resources to suppress the incident swiftly.
Now, relevant information could already be found online.
In Shen Shuyis view, the other partys actions were merely to upset the Liang family.
The incident could only spread within a limited scope.
The Liang family held significant influence in the media industry. Not only mainstream media but even online self-media dared not say much.
Moreover, for paparazzi and self-media, reporting on celebrity gossip was far more meaningful than this.
For the wealthy, such scandals were commonplace, generally accepted as normal.
Thus, this matter didnt cause widespread online dissemination.
The w.a.n.g family had two objectives in doing this.
The first was to let Ji Qingyan know about it, and the second was to upset the
Liang family.
Once news of Lin Yis death returned, he would surely be posthumously honored as a martyr. At that point, this information would resurface online.
This way, Lin Yis reputation would be utterly ruined!
Why are you frowning? You havent eaten for a day.
Yang Yuhua served the dishes and placed them in front of Liang Ruoxu.
Im not hungry. I wont eat for now, Liang Ruoxu said listlessly.
Liang Ruoxu didnt care if her relations.h.i.+p with Lin Yi was exposed.
She had thought about this a long time ago and was already prepared for the
worst.
But after so many days, there was still no news of Lin Yi. Her heart was still in
her throat.
Look at the time. You only had some porridge in the morning. If you dont eat for the whole day, your stomach wont be able to take it. Yang Yuhua advised earnestly.
You dont have to worry about your father and grandfather either. As long as
Im alive, Id like to see who dares to criticize you.
Yang Yuhua had always been like this. She would not reason with Liang Ruoxu but would also not side with her for no reason.
I didnt even think about them.
Liang Ruoxu had also given up. Although it had greatly affected her reputation, site had no time to care about it.
After losing contact for such a long time, who wouldnt be worried?
In this situation, its useless even if youre worried. You still have to eat. Yang Yuhua said.
There might be news at some point. Although Ive never seen what he looks like, Im sure you wont be wrong about a young man who caught your eye.
Liang Ruoxu tilted his head and looked at Yang Yuhua. Grandma, arent you angry with me?
Wiry would I be angry?
This is a disgrace to the Liang family.
Family reputation? Were just ordinary people, what family reputation do we have? Do you really thinkyoure royalty? Yang Yuhua scoffed.
Your grandfather was a peasant, eating cornmeal every day as a child. Nowadays, thats just pig feed. If your great-grandfather hadnt taken pity on him and brought him home to help out, he might have starved to death. There would have been no chance for him to go to war.
Seeing Yang Yuhuas dismissive expression, Liang Ruoxu smiled. She loved hearing her elders stories from the past.
If my grandfather heard this, he would definitely be upset.
Why would he be upset? Im already being subtle. The real situation was even worse, Yang Yuhua said.
And I just cant stand all this nonsense about family rules and reputation. Its something the rich fuss over, making a big deal out of nothing.
But I still feel a bit sorry for the Liang family. My mom, dad, and grandfather
are all respectable people. People will laugh at them.
Theres nothing to be sorry about. Yang Yuhua held Liang Ruoxus hand, stroking it repeatedly, as if she couldnt get enough. She spoke meaningfully.
In this world, whats the most important thing? Money, of course. If you cant eat, you lose your life, and nothing else matters.
But when you have enough money, whats the most important thing? It s definitely feelings.
Look at your parents. With their status, young men and women would love to attach themselves to them. But all these years, theyve done well, never betraying each other. Without genuine feelings, they couldnt have done that.
But Im not as good as them.
Why not? Its fine as long as you think this relations.h.i.+p is real.
Yang Yuhua said nonchalantly,
Outstanding people are always attractive. You just have to think that youre right. Many years later, you can pat your chest and say that you dont regret it. This is good enough.
Yang Yuhua said earnestly, Sometimes, you cant overthink it. If you think too much, you wont be able to do anything. Life only lasts a few decades. As long as you live comfortably and can be good to yourself, its fine. Theres nothing wrong with being a little selfish.
Grandma, youre too open-minded. Im not as good as you.
Ive got one foot in the grave already, and Ive come to see things more clearly. People arent machines. They spend their lives rus.h.i.+ng around, and when they get old, they feel like theyve let themselves down. Whats the point of all that hustle and bustle? Its just for some comfort in life.
Liang Ruoxu nodded, somewhat understanding but not fully grasping the concept yet.
Your grandfather, your father, even your mother, theyre all constantly busy. What are they striving for? A good life? Definitely not. The Liang family has enough money to last several lifetimes. Its their desires pus.h.i.+ng them forward. So dont follow their example. Do what makes you happy. In a few decades, well all be dust. The most important thing is to enjoy life while you can.
Yang Yuhuas open-mindedness enlightened Liang Ruoxu.
He realized that his grandmother was the one in the Liang family who truly understood life the best.
Got it, Grandma. I know what to do now.
Good. As long as you understand. Now, finish your meal, Yang Yuhua said, standing up.
I bought a watermelon this morning. Its really sweet. Ill cut some for you. No need, Grandma. Dont trouble yourself. Just sit with me for a while. I want to talk to you.
Alright, alright. Lets chat for a bit. Who knows when you 11 be back once you leave?
Ring ring ring
At this moment, Liang Ruoxus phone rang. It was a call from Shen Shuyi.
Liang Ruoxu pursed his lips. Grandma, pick it up. Shes probably calling me at this time to scold me.
She wouldnt dare. Yang Yuhua picked up the phone and turned on loudspeaker.
What is it? What is it? Yang Yuhua asked.
Mom, wheres Little Mi?
Shes eating next to me.
Put her on.
Go ahead. She can hear you.
Ask her to come to Room 2208 of the Third Inpatient Department of Union
Medical Hospital
Before Shen Shuyi could finish, she paused for a few seconds. Something happened to Lin Yi.
