Chapter 260: Beaten Down Again

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Madam Ling felt so suffocated, and yet there was nothing she could say. She was the one that insisted on fifty million, and now that it fell into her hands as easily as it was to turn her palm over, what could she say about it? Wouldn’t it just make her a bigger joke?

Madam Ling suddenly realized that she would make a fool out of herself, but she didn’t realize that what she did earlier had already portrayed her as a clown.

Ling Tao wiped off the small beads of sweat on his forehead, before saying to Ruan Qishan, “Sorry you had to see that.”

Ruan Qishan’s face went back to normalcy. He could see that Ling Tao was still a good man that upheld his morals. He was someone different than his mother.

Ruan Qishan raised his glass, wanting to share a drink with Ling Tao. He instantly raised his glass too, clinking it with Ruan Qishan’s, the two of them downing their drinks.

The two of them put down their glass, and Ruan Qishan asked someone to bring over a stack of documents, placing them on the table. “This is the dowry that I had prepared, I was still worried whether it would be enough, so I wanted to ask for your opinion. Who knew...”

Sensing that there was more to his words, Ling Tao picked the documents up, his expression freezing in place after seeing what was written on them.

For each page that Ling Tao turned, his eyes widened a bit more. Madam Ling felt extremely curious, and snatched the documents, perusing them carefully. The utter surprise and extreme emotions that she felt boiling in her heart were definitely not something she was expecting.

The Ruan family had really come with sincerity, and they had long since prepared the dowry that the Ling family mentioned. The documents clearly stated all of the dowries that they had prepared. It included a few plots of lands and businesses under the Ruan family name that had unlimited growth potential, and two mansions located in the midst of the mountains. Just those added together was worth a few times more than fifty million. There was a blank check in the documents as well. That meant they could write however much they wanted.

Madam Ling’s heart throbbed with pain, her face turning purple. The Ruans had come there with so much sincerity, yet she had only asked for fifty million. All sorts of emotions bubbled up and tangled themselves in her heart, making her feel lightheaded and unable to even breathe properly.

It seemed that the Ruan family was really treating Ling Tianya like a treasure they had found. Just those properties were worth the entirety of the Ling family’s fortune.

Ling Tao took a deep breath, taking the documents back from Madam Ling’s hands, and placing them back onto the table. “Since my mother mentioned that the dowry should only be fifty million, then let that be the final amount.”

Hearing what Ling Tao said, Ruan Qishan was a little surprised, but he was approving of his future in-law. He was not greedy after all.

The moment Madam Ling heard it, she was literally about to flip a table. “What are you saying?! How can you return someone’s dowry?!”

Thinking that the moment they accepted the dowry, the Ling family’s fortune would double, Madam Ling definitely could not bear parting with it.

Ling Tao didn’t want to fight with his mother, and they’d already made a fool out of themselves, so he directly shot back. “Mom, you were the one that requested fifty million. Since you did that, you can’t go back on your word! I am still someone that is fighting my battles in the business world, what would people think of the Ling family if word got out that we went back on our word? Do you want to embarrass yourself even more?”

Ling Tao directly escalated the issue onto the Ling family’s reputation. With the fact that it definitely was her that said those words, he stuffed Madam Ling’s mouth closed. All she could do was glare at those documents until her eyes hurt.

Ruan Qishan smiled gently, picking those documents up, before getting someone to bring them to Ling Tianya’s hands.

“Our future-in-law is right, but it was Ling Tianya that gave out that fifty million. Since it’s the Ruan family’s that marrying a daughter into our family, how can we let her pay her own dowry? Let’s just give all of this to Tianya, no rejecting!”

Ruan Qishan emphasized the last two words, seemingly harsh, but full of satisfaction for Ling Tianya.
