Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Ruan Tianling’s expression stiffened for a moment.

Then, in an annoyed manner, he said, “Just drink the milk!”

She didn’t want to be at odds with him over such trivial matters. She picked up the milk and drained it in one go, leaving a ring of white milk residue on her upper lip.

Ruan Tianling impulsively reached for a tissue to wipe her mouth. Jian Yufei dodged reflexively, and his hand stiffened in mid-air, as a surge of anger arose in his eyes.

Just when she thought he would lose his temper, he threw the tissue on her, snorted coldly, and then turned and strode out.

Jian Yufei was stupefied for a moment, caught the tissue, and wiped her mouth, as she got dressed and followed his footsteps.

Mother Ruan had been in the ward taking care of Ruan Anguo all night without leaving.

When Ruan Tianling and Jian Yufei walked in, they saw the weary Mother Ruan caring for Ruan Anguo. Upon seeing them, especially Jian Yufei behind Ruan Tianling, Mother Ruan’s face showed her displeasure.

She averted her gaze indifferently and used a tissue to wipe the elderly man’s mouth: “Dad, eat some more.”

The old man waved his hand, indicating he was done eating. Looking towards the two at the door, he revealed a kind smile.

“Grandpa is fine now. I’m sure I had you all worried yesterday.”

Jian Yufei’s eyes instantly reddened.

Despite the fact that she had caused her grandfather to faint, he was the one comforting her instead. She felt deeply ashamed.

“Grandpa…” she moved forward, forcing a slight smile, “Grandpa, you must get better. I promise I won’t make you upset again.”

Ruan Anguo held her hand and smiled reassuringly.

He turned to Mother Ruan and said, “You have worked hard too. Go home and rest, Yufei can stay and take care of me.”

“Dad, she’s young and doesn’t know how to attend to the sick.”

“Isn’t there a nurse? I’m okay now, you should go home and rest. It wouldn’t do if you fall ill before I get better.”

“Mom, go home and rest. I promise I’ll take good care of Grandpa.” Jian Yufei earnestly promised. Mother Ruan thought for a moment and nodded, gave her some instructions, and stood up to leave.

The old man asked Ruan Tianling to accompany her home. He agreed and followed her out of the room, leaving only the two of them in the ward.

“Grandpa, I’m sorry…” Jian Yufei tearfully apologized. Ruan Anguo laughed: “It’s not you who should say sorry to Grandpa, but Grandpa who should apologize to you.”

She blinked in bewilderment.

“Yufei, Grandpa thought you were a good girl and believed that having Tianling marry you was best for both of you. But Grandpa never expected it to end up hurting you. Tianling is stubborn and only sees Yan Yue’s qualities, failing to appreciate your goodness, and deeply hurting your heart. That’s why you want to escape, correct? It’s all my fault. I made a mistake, and caused you harm.”

“Grandpa, don’t say that. I know you only wanted what was best for me. I never blamed you. Perhaps it just wasn’t meant to be between Ruan Tianling and me.”

Ruan Anguo lowered his eyes and sighed regretfully, “Perhaps you’re right… Yufei, Grandpa has understood now. Maybe it is currently the best choice to let you two separate.”

Jian Yufei opened her eyes wide in surprise, “Grandpa, you agree to our divorce?”

“Once I’m discharged, I’ll start arranging for your divorce.”

This was certainly an unexpected surprise.

She had already prepared herself for the possibility that there wouldn’t be a divorce, thinking that if the old man still disapproved, she would give up the idea of divorce for the rest of his life.

Nobody knew how disheartened she felt when she made this decision.
