Chapter 253: Future In-Laws

Ling Tao sat on the couch at home and anxiously waited for Ruan Zeyan’s people to come and pick them up. That must be the most tormenting wait in his whole life. Every time he thought about meeting with Ruan Zeyan’s parents, his heart would skip a beat.

Meeting Ruan Zeyan alone caused Ling Tao to be so nervous that he almost had arrhythmia. He had to go meet the elders in the Ruan Family; that was simply something Ling Tao was too afraid to even consider.

“Look at yourself!” Madam Ling, glaring at her son, said coldly, “It’s just a meeting between the parents of both sides, what are you so nervous for?”

Ling Tao picked up the teacup and took a sip. “Mom, do you know who we are meeting with?”

“Of course, I do, the Ruans!” Madam Ling seemed much calmer than Ling Tao, although her palms were getting sweaty too.

“You know it too, they are the Ruans. This is not an average meeting either. It’s a meeting for future in-laws. Are you really not nervous?”

Ling Tao had seen the Ruans before, but those times were either in public or at banquets. On those occasions, a small-time man like himself would never get the chance to be near the Ruans.

That day, not only could he get near, he was meeting them as their future in-laws…

The more Ling Tao thought about it, the more nervous he became. He drank all the tea he had in the cup.

Sitting on the other side, Qu Wan looked at Ling Tao with a cold eye. She was laughing at him inside because all this nervousness was unnecessary. Ling Tianya would disappear from the world soon!

Suppressing that thought, Qu Wan filled Ling Tao’s teacup with more tea. “Tao, don’t be so nervous. You don’t want the Ruans to see you like this and look down on us. If not for the Lings, you ought to think about Yaya’s future in the Ruan Family.”

Ling Tao agreed with Qu Wan. He shouldn’t appear weak in front of the Ruans.

He patted Qu Wan’s hand and said, “Yes, you are right!”

Shortly after, Ruan Zeyan’s men arrived. Ling Tao stood up from the couch and straightened his suit formally. He walked outside with his back straight and head up.

Knowing that they were the future in-laws of the Ruans, everybody along the way treated Ling Tao with utmost respect.

The meeting location was at an upscale private club. The car with Ling Tao passed the club gates, where the service staff of the club already stood in two lines bowing in a 90-degree angle to welcome them.

As soon as the car stopped, the service staff opened the car door and helped Ling Tao get out of the car with impeccable hospitality.

Ling Tao was not expecting that level of attention on himself by the Ruan Family. He started to feel rather flattered.

Madam Ling’s face was showing all sorts of expressions. Her ego was highly satisfied by being treated so well by the Ruans, however when she remembered that the Ruans were doing this for Ling Tianya and not for Guan Meiyi, her excitement was dampened.

Qu Wan looked rather indifferent the whole time. If it was not for keeping her image as a considerate step-mother, she never would have come.

The service staff was leading them toward the private meeting room. The closer they got, the more nervous Ling Tao became. He tightly held onto Qu Wan’s hand, trying his hardest to appear calm on the outside.

Qu Wan’s hand was hurting, but she couldn’t do anything except bear it.

Finally, they arrived at the room. The server knocked on the door lightly. “Mr. Ling is here.”

Then, he opened the door.
