Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 492: She’s a Bad Person

Having said this much, Ling Chengyang no longer bothered to pretend: "Miss Gu, your personality doesn’t match Tianyou’s. Tianyou might just be experiencing a temporary novelty with you. Even if the old man agrees to this marriage, you might end up resenting him later."

He knew his son best. Perhaps Gu Ningyue’s former personality could have gotten along with Tianyou, but with Gu Ningyue’s current assertive and sharp personality...

If there were no conflicts, it would be fine. But if the two had a conflict, wouldn’t it be daily battles where no one would be happy?

When feelings are strong, anything goes.

Mutual tolerance and concession.

But time will always fade feelings, and no one can stay in love forever.

As someone who has been through it, Ling Chengyang did not want to see his son end up divorced. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Chengyang, not feeling that what he said made much sense. She only thought that it was a ploy to break her and Ling Tianyou apart!

After two seconds of silence, Gu Ningyue said, "Uncle Ling has a point. Why not ask Tianyou? When it comes to love, only the people involved can truly understand what’s going on."

With these words, Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou.

The look in her eyes was very clear: "It’s your turn to say something; after all, this is your dad!"

Ling Tianyou smiled. Seeing Gu Ningyue standing up to his dad, he was still happy.

Someone willing to stand firm for him, even under pressure and fear, wanting to be with him, he was very pleased with Gu Ningyue’s reaction.

"Dad, I like Ning Yue. Even if you don’t agree, I’m still going to get engaged to Ning Yue."

Ling Chengyang gazed into Ling Tianyou’s eyes: "Tianyou, you have no prior experience in relationships, so don’t be too hasty!"

Ling Tianyou said calmly, "I think the ninth of next month is a good day. Why not have the family over for dinner at our place on the eighth? Dad, what do you think?"

Ling Tianyou did not take his father’s words to heart and had already started planning the engagement date with Gu Ningyue.

Ling Chengyang’s face was as calm as water, and he did not speak for a long time.

The atmosphere became awkward in an instant. Only Ling Xuan, unaware of the situation, looked around the room before asking his grandfather, "Is sister going to marry uncle? That’s great! Grandpa, does that mean dad will come back too?"

Ling Chengyang was taken aback, his previously cold gaze softened by two degrees: "Xuanxuan, be good. Adults’ matters don’t concern you."

Xuanxuan pouted: "Isn’t sister getting married to us? Oh well..."

Mrs. Ling stepped in at the right moment: "It seems Xuanxuan really likes Ning Yue! But when Xiao Rui came over before, Xuanxuan always stayed far away."

Liu Liu also nodded: "Yes, Xuanxuan doesn’t seem to like Chen Rui."

Ling Chengyang had always been unaware of this and looked at Ling Xuan with some confusion: "Xuanxuan, why don’t you like Aunt Chen Rui? She’s your uncle’s best friend."

Ling Xuan looked down at his food and said quietly, "She’s a bad person. Xuanxuan doesn’t like her."

Ling Chengyang was momentarily stunned, but then calmly looked at Ling Xuan and said, "What makes her bad? Tell Grandpa. Did she bully you?"

Ling Xuan shook his head: "She didn’t bully me; she bullied uncle! She pushed uncle into the car; I saw it! Uncle is so pitiful..."

This statement left even Ling Tianyou a bit stunned.

He didn’t even know how he was taken to the hospital after the car accident.

He had assumed that apart from himself and Chen Rui, no one else knew. How did Ling Xuan know?

Looking at Ling Xuan with puzzled eyes, Liu Liu also added, "Xuanxuan, don’t lie, okay? Good kids don’t tell lies!"

Ling Xuan shook his head: "I’m not lying! She said it herself while on the phone after talking to Grandpa. Mom, Xuanxuan didn’t lie!"

This statement changed Mrs. Ling’s expression: "I thought my son wasn’t suffering from post-accident effects. How could the car have only hit Tianyou so precisely? Even if Tianyou saved Chen Rui, it’s impossible for Chen Rui to have come out unharmed."

At that time, the blood on Chen Rui was all Ling Tianyou’s.

"Dad, can you accept such an equal status daughter-in-law?" Ling Tianyou asked, looking at him.

Ling Chengyang said nothing, and Mrs. Ling smiled: "I think the ninth of next month is a good idea. Let the two kids get engaged then! Old man, let the kids decide their own matters! You’ve handed the company over to Tianyou; are you still planning an arranged marriage?"

Though it was a joke, there was some truth to it.

Ling Chengyang looked deeply at Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou: "Are you two sure about this?"

Both nodded, and Ling Chengyang didn’t say anything further.

After a long pause, he finally nodded: "Alright."

"The path is yours to walk. How you walk it, the choices are yours to make!"

Hearing Ling Chengyang relent, both Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou breathed a sigh of relief.

"I will," Ling Tianyou smiled, "Ning Yue bought gifts for you and Mom. After dinner, you can take a look; they were all carefully chosen by Ning Yue."

Ling Chengyang nodded: "As long as you are happy, that’s enough. You don’t need to bring gifts every time you come back."

The words Ling Xuan said kept echoing in his mind. Over the years, he always thought Chen Rui was the most suitable partner for Ling Tianyou. In terms of appearance, family background, and how she handled things, he was very satisfied.

She lacked Gu Ningyue’s sharpness and had only cunning and smoothness.

But Ling Xuan’s words shattered his illusions completely.

Perhaps, as his wife said, they were getting old, and it was time for the kids to walk their paths.

After the meal, Ling Chengyang coaxed his little grandson upstairs to play, leaving only Mrs. Ling and Liu Liu in the living room on the first floor.

Gu Ningyue was no longer as restrained as when she first arrived, after all, the purpose of this visit had been achieved.

"Have you chosen the invitations yet? Have you listed the guests to be invited?" Mrs. Ling, holding Gu Ningyue’s hand, asked Ling Tianyou.

"Not yet. We’ll do it when we get back tonight." Ling Tianyou seemed in good spirits: "I was afraid to act rashly while Dad didn’t agree."

Mrs. Ling smiled and said, "Earlier you said you’d marry even without approval. Now you don’t dare? Who are you fooling, you brat."

Ling Tianyou said casually, "There’s still time, no rush, Mom."

Mrs. Ling nodded: "I know, I’m just afraid you’ll not take care of everything properly and wrong Ning Yue."
