Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 485: A Woman’s Greatest Fear Is Aging
Ye Ningwan originally thought Lin Yue came to Philadelphia for her, and was a little angry. But unexpectedly, Lin Yue admitted he came for Wan Tianning, making Ye Ningwan feel awkward and blush slightly.
Thankfully, Wan Tianning came in soon to break the awkwardness.
She looked at Lin Yue with surprise and joy, rushed to him, and hugged him tightly as soon as she entered.
"Lin Yue, why did you come suddenly? You didn’t even give me a heads up."
Lin Yue held her waist steadily with both hands and said with a smile, "I wanted to give you a surprise. Seeing me now, do you feel surprised?" 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Wan Tianning nodded, "Surprised, very surprised!"
"But why are you guys also here?" Wan Tianning quickly turned to Ye Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue and asked.
Ye Ningwan said, "We didn’t mean to be here, just happened to run into each other."
"This restaurant is hard to get a reservation at. My sister and brother-in-law came late, and there were no suites left. I happened to see them, so I invited them to dine in the suite together. The suite is big enough anyway, Ningning, you wouldn’t mind!" Lin Yue explained.
Wan Tianning said, "Why would I mind? It’s my sister and brother-in-law who brought me here, and I haven’t thanked them yet. Of course, I don’t mind."
Saying this, Wan Tianning released Lin Yue, pulled out the chair, and sat down.
Lin Yue had originally intended to help her pull out the chair but didn’t expect her to do it herself.
He smiled and shook his head, then sat next to her.
However, before sitting down, he deliberately moved his chair closer to Wan Tianning, so they would be closer.
"How is everything over there?" Wan Tianning asked Ye Ningwan.
Ye Ningwan glanced at Lin Yue.
Wan Tianning said, "Since everyone is here, you must know about my situation, so there’s nothing to hide. We’re not outsiders. A son-in-law is half a son. Although it’s embarrassing, I guess they wouldn’t mind."
Saying this, she turned her head to Lin Yue and asked, "Right?"
Lin Yue nodded, "My brother-in-law and I are not outsiders, you can talk in front of us. But if you don’t want to say it in front of us, we can also step out. This restaurant has a specialty fish dish, but they’re fresh fish killed on the spot. How about I go over with my brother-in-law?"
"Alright," Wan Tianning said with a smile.
Lin Yue looked at Zhan Hanjue.
Zhan Hanjue stood up, leaned down, and whispered to Ye Ningwan, "I’ll go out first."
Ye Ningwan nodded, watching him and Lin Yue leave.
As soon as they left, Wan Tianning asked Ye Ningwan, "How’s mom now?"
"You will know when you see her tomorrow, maybe you’ll be surprised. But you’ve grown up, probably have stronger mental resilience, it shouldn’t be too upsetting." Ye Ningwan answered.
Wan Tianning frowned, "It seems not too good. Did you ask her why she did this? Why did she fake her death then, and why didn’t she come to us all this time?"
"Can’t you guess?" Ye Ningwan countered.
Wan Tianning frowned again, thinking of the rumors she heard, her eyebrows furrowing deeply.
Ye Ningwan said, "Don’t frown. You’re young but already like frowning, be careful you’ll age faster."
Being a female celebrity, Wan Tianning cared a lot about her appearance.
As soon as she heard the words "age faster," she immediately relaxed her brows and said to Ye Ningwan, "Don’t talk nonsense. I’m not even twenty, how could I be associated with aging. Celebrities as pretty and young as me are rare in the entire entertainment circle. My days of great fame and success are still far ahead, don’t curse me."
Ye Ningwan laughed, "Are you really afraid of aging? But you know, birth, aging, illness, and death are natural laws. It’s something everyone has to face."
"Of course I know, but it’s a matter for a long time later, not something I need to worry about now."
"Yes, but I still want to let you know it’s a natural law, don’t be like your parents, making wrong decisions one step at a time, leading to irreversible consequences." Ye Ningwan reminded.
Wan Tianning showed some impatience.
Young girls don’t like being preached to, let alone Miss Wan, who is always proud.
"I know, stop nagging, will you? Do women become long-winded and naggy when they get older? If you keep doing this, be careful Zhan Hanjue won’t like you."
"Whether Zhan Hanjue likes me, I know myself, no need for you to worry." Ye Ningwan retorted impolitely.
But after replying, she realized something was amiss. How did they end up arguing again?
Indeed, they seem naturally incompatible, any disagreement leads to a quarrel.
"Sorry, I strayed from the topic. Is there anything else you want to ask?" Ye Ningwan admitted her mistake and brought the topic back.
Wan Tianning tugged at the napkin beside her, bit her lip, and said, "Nothing to ask, some questions I’ll ask her myself tomorrow."
"She mentioned Wan Tianci today. Have you found him?" Ye Ningwan asked.
Wan Tianning shook her head and said indignantly, "That brat, though mischievous as a child, he would at least listen to me. When I went to see him today, he ignored me and told me not to bother him, he’s doing well himself. Even if mom is in trouble, he can take care of himself."
"He already knows mom is in trouble?"
"Philadelphia is not that big, and Wan Group is such a large corporation, with such a big incident, how could he not hear anything? He’s really driving me mad, I told him to come he wouldn’t. Sister, how do you deal with such brats? Give me some tips." Wan Tianning humbly asked.
Ye Ningwan thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "No idea, Ye Shao wasn’t that troublesome, he was quite obedient as a child. He would listen to anything I said, let alone Lin Yue, if he were as obedient as before, how nice would that be."
"Lin Yue is nice now." Wan Tianning immediately argued.
"Yes, yes, he’s nice now too." Ye Ningwan was too lazy to argue with her.
After a brief pause, she continued, "But your mom’s intention is for you to take care of Wan Tianci, she originally asked me to, but I refused. I don’t want additional responsibility, but if you also don’t want to take care of him, we need to think of another way. After all, he’s already twelve or thirteen years old, not a little kid. When you were his age, you were already resourceful, even managed to plot against me."
"It’s been so long, why are you still bringing it up, really petty." Wan Tianning pouted.
But seeing Ye Ningwan’s attitude, she wasn’t going to help with Wan Tianci, making her feel a bit troubled again.
She herself is still a child, and also a female celebrity, with everything she says and does under public scrutiny. She’s busy every day, truly having no time to look after a child.
Especially when the boy is also in adolescence.
