To take over control of the Ruan Family, it would only be over my dead body. As long as I’m still in the Ruan Family, I will never let her get her way.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about how her own daughter was constantly scheming against her, Ruan Lingyu felt a chill in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that both her son and husband were siding with Shen Mianmian, she felt utterly powerless. However, she wouldn’t accept Shen Mianmian unless she came forth with a proper attitude to amend her ways and took substantive action. Only then would she consider whether to forgive Shen Mianmian or not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Niece, it’s good as long as you don’t think I’m being too nosy,” Cheng Xining said. “Now that we’ve found Mianmian, I really hope your family can get along well. Although I had misunderstandings with her before, I admit it was my fault. But I’ve let it go now. I’m not attracted to Nan ge anymore. There are plenty of good men in the world; I don’t need to degrade myself for someone who doesn’t care about me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s good that you’ve come to terms with it,” Ruan Lingyu’s face looked a bit better. “If she were half as sensible as you, I wouldn’t be so furious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Xining cooed, “Aunt, you’ve decided against the divorce, haven’t you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ruan Lingyu sighed, “I was just speaking in anger earlier. At my age, why get a divorce? Anyway, your uncle has already moved out. Divorced or not, life goes on the same, and I can’t let Shen Mianmian have the satisfaction.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last sentence was nearly uttered through clenched teeth by Ruan Lingyu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Xining playfully said, “Aunt, it’s great that you’re feeling better. You absolutely can’t divorce uncle. I’ve been calling you ‘aunt’ for so many years; if you got a divorce, I wouldn’t even know what to call you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ruan Lingyu laughed, “You! You think differently from others.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After tapping Cheng Xining’s forehead, Ruan Lingyu suddenly remembered something and asked, “Didn’t you say last time that you took on a role in a film that’s about to start shooting? When does filming begin?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Xining said proudly, “Soon, in a few days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve been rather idle lately, so how about I accompany you to the set?” Ruan Lingyu suggested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Xining’s eyes flickered as she quickly declined, “Aunt, please don’t come. With you watching, I won’t even know how to act. I’ll feel embarrassed. It’s my first time, and I’m not thick-skinned.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scale of the film was quite bold, and Cheng Xining knew if Ruan Lingyu found out, she would definitely oppose her continuing the shoot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The director had said it was for art’s sake, and that this film, once released, was bound to be a hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Ruan Lingyu became serious, “Xining, did you read the script thoroughly when you took on the film? It’s not too provocative, is it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ruan Lingyu knew a little about the entertainment industry. Some parts in films were quite explicit, and she didn’t want Cheng Xining getting involved in such projects, which she considered disgraceful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aunt, don’t worry! I won’t take on any films with excessive content,” Cheng Xining promised earnestly. “The films I take are all art films. It’s Mianmian, though; I heard that the film she did before had quite the scope, including scenes with the male and female leads in bed. But it’s done and dusted now; talking about it is pointless.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing that Shen Mianmian had taken on such a film, Ruan Lingyu’s face turned ugly again, “I’ll pretend I never had her. I won’t interfere in her affairs from now on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Xining sighed, “Aunt, let’s not talk about her. You’ve been busy until now and haven’t eaten dinner. Are you hungry? Let’s go eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ruan Lingyu glanced back at the hospital, thinking that she wouldn’t come to see Ruan Feng for the next few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>",686,"2026-06-06T05:22:22.895Z",1,"novelbin.me","e73d19c9aaf471afa111b2d64aa736e6cfc63483b1be7bdcffab2c161787f584","rebirth-in-the-80s-the-scholar-wife-is-cute-chapter-975","rebirth-in-the-80s-the-scholar-wife-is-cute-chapter-974",1317,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-in-the-80s-the-scholar-wife-is-cute-cover.jpg"]
