Chapter 831: On Cloud Nine (5)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Throughout the meal, Qin prohibited any other servants from helping out. Ling Tianya was tasked to do everything and serve everyone.
One maid tried to help Ling Tianya but Qin asked Ruan Guosheng to send his man to slap the maid, in order to teach her a lesson. Just like that, none of the maids dared to help Ling Tianya anymore. They were too scared. They could only watch as Ling Tianya was asked to serve them.
Qin was extremely pleased as she watched the former Young Mistress of the Ruan family serve them like this.
Second Aunt was even more overjoyed. She teamed up with Ming Li and made things extra difficult for Ling Tianya as they both tried to pick on her.
Second Aunt looked at Ling Tianya as she picked up her plate filled with food debris and waste as she shouted at her, “Can’t you show a little more initiative? Can’t you see that my plate is filled with bones? Come get me a clean one!”
Ling Tianya turned to fetch her a new plate and placed it in front of Second Aunt. She reached over to take the dirty plate away.
Just as she was about to grab it, Second Aunt suddenly let go of the plate in her hands and the plate dropped to the ground in front of Ling Tianya. All the sauce and bones splattered onto the floor and onto Ling Tianya’s shoes.
Second Aunt feigned surprise and exclaimed, “Oops, my mistake! I didn’t mean to.”
Ming Li was grinning, and Qin looked satisfied too. Nothing made her happier than watching Ling Tianya get humiliated like this.
One of the maids came forward with a rag and tried to wipe the floor and Ling Tianya’s feet but Second Aunt only glared at her as she shouted, “Mind your own business.”
The maid stood there helplessly, afraid to carry on further. Ling Tianya didn’t want to implicate the innocent so she took over the rag from the maid and whispered, “I’ll handle it myself.”
Ling Tianya bent over slowly and started cleaning up the mess on the floor as well as her own shoes.
At this moment, there was nothing she couldn’t put up with. All she had in mind was one goal. She had to keep everyone safe and sound before Ruan Zeyan returned home to them. That was all that mattered.
Ling Tianya squatted on the floor as she cleaned up the mess. Ruan Fusheng, who was sitting beside Second Aunt, was staring at her collar with lustful eyes. He couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
After she cleaned up, Ling Tianya returned to the kitchen and threw the rag into the bin.
A maid walked over to her quietly and handed her a clean pair of work shoes. She whispered to her extremely softly, “Madam, these are my work shoes. They’re new, and I have yet to wear them. You can have them if you don’t mind.”
Ling Tianya looked down at her own soiled shoes, and she smiled at the maid, “Thank you very much.”
She took off her shoes and quickly put on the maid’s new work shoes.
Ling Tianya walked around for a while. “They’re really comfortable,” she said to the maid gratefully.
The maid eyes were red now as tears welled up. She was touched by how easy going Ling Tianya was. “As long as you don’t mind, Young Mistress.”
Ling Tianya emerged from the kitchen, and Qin was sharp enough to notice that she had changed her shoes. She didn’t bother to say another word since she was still in a good mood.
The entire meal lasted for over two hours. Ling Tianya was standing next to the table the entire time, and she had to run around serving them all. She also had to withstand the three women’s difficult requests and nitpicking.
When dinner finally ended, Ling Tianya was exhausted.
Qin eventually did allow her to go grab supplies from the nursery room but under surveillance.
Ruan Guosheng’s two men followed her into the baby’s nursery and Ling Tianya’s heart ached when she walked into the room. Its familiar shade and hue, the furniture and the spinning carousel made her miss Ruan Zeyan even more.
Last night, he had still been standing there, staring at her and Tiny Rice Ball affectionately.
Tonight, he was gone.
