Chapter 259: Old Lady Was Played

Surprised by the question, Madam Ling thought Ling Tianya was distressed about the 50 million asked of the Ruan Family. She said disgruntledly, “Yes, 50 million.”

“Good!” Ling Tianya replied without hesitation. “I’ll give it to you!”

The old lady was a little confused by it. She was asking for dowry money from the Ruan Family. They hadn’t answered yet, but Ling Tianya answered for them?

Ling Tianya took out a checkbook from her purse and quickly wrote down something. When she was done, she stood up and waved the check in front of Madam Ling’s face.

“Here is 50 million. I am buying myself,” Ling Tianya said without any emotion.

Everybody was shocked by what Ling Tianya did, except Ruan Zeyan, who looked at her with a smile in his eyes as if he knew she was going to do it.

Madam Ling stared at the check, dumbfounded. Fifty million was clearly written on it, and she looked at Ling Tianya, wide-eyed and unable to process what she was seeing.

“What is this, Ling Tianya? Where did you get 50 million? Are you trying to fool me with this piece of paper?”

Ling Tianya had already sat back down in her seat. She talked with ease in her voice. “Grandma, I think you underestimated the real value of your grand-daughter. In the past few years, the copyright and royalties of any one book of mine has exceeded that amount.”

Madam Ling gasped when she heard that. Then, still with doubt, she looked over at her son. Ling Tao looked equally shocked, but he didn’t seem to doubt what Ling Tianya had said one bit. Madam Ling finally realized that the check must be real.

Madam Ling had never expected that Ling Tianya had become so rich. Fifty million seemed to be nothing to her… If the copyright and royalties of one book had exceeded 50 million, and she had written so many books, that meant…

Eyes bugged out, Madam Ling suddenly seemed to realize something. At that very moment, she was feeling perplexed and regretful.

Qu Wan was shocked too. She had underestimated Ling Tianya all that time and never expected that she had so many assets. No wonder she was doing things without worries. It was really hard to tell from the clothes she wore and the car she drove.

“Even if you have the money, why are you are giving this to me?” Madam Ling asked in a shaky voice.

“Dowry money,” Ling Tianya said.

Madam Ling’s eyebrows tightened, and she sounded a little less mean than before. “No respect for rules! How can this money come from you?”

To be honest, Madam Ling was really regretting things right then. The 50 million price was way too low. Her granddaughter’s status was definitely worth more than 50 million!

While Madam Ling was pondering in her head how to raise the dowry money for the Ruan Family, Ling Tianya opened her mouth again.

“As I have said, this 50 million is the price I am paying to buy myself. This is my marriage, so I don’t want it to be filled with calculation and trade. I choose to marry Ruan Zeyan because I love this man, and not because of anything else!”

Ling Tianya’s words received full approval from the Ruans. Ruan Qishan found himself more and more satisfied with this daughter-in-law. Her action of paying 50 million herself was such a power move. If the Lings weren’t all sitting there, Ruan Qishan would have even started to doubt whether Ling Tianya was a child from the Ling Family.

The way she talked and conducted herself reflected nothing of the Ling Family.

Madam Ling’s face turned iron blue. When she was about to say something, Ling Tianya just cut her off. “Grandma, I asked you before if you were sure about the 50 million. Have you already forgotten your answer? Isn’t that a check for 50 million in your hand right now?”

Madam Ling felt her chest tighten, and had a sense that she had been played by Ling Tianya.
