Chapter 590: Chapter 299: Is This the Ideal Son-in-law? Chapter 590: Chapter 299: Is This the Ideal Son-in-law? “Click—”

The door was opened.

Following that, Qian Guixiang, with a rag in her hand, peered out with half of her body.

Seeing it was Wen Ruan, she hurriedly opened the door wider, “Ruannuan, what are you standing out there for? Come in quickly, it’s so hot in the hallway.”

Just now, she had heard her daughter’s voice, which is why she had come out to see.

Wen Ruan nodded silently, clutching her phone as she walked in.

“It’s too hot, have a slice of chilled watermelon. I just bought some Kirin melon, it’s really sweet.”

Guixiang quickly discarded the rag, handed over the fruit plate, and took her beloved daughter’s bag.

Wen Ruan curled her lip, her mom’s change of face was a bit too abrupt.

In the past, over the matter of matchmaking, she seemed desperate to kick her own daughter out.

Now, she’s all concern and affection every day, like they’d returned to Wen Ruan’s childhood.

Biting into the refreshingly sweet watermelon, she enjoyed the cool breeze from the air conditioner.

Wen Ruan puffed her cheeks and let out a sigh, gradually relaxing.

After all, she had been mentally prepared, having gone through whatever there was to fear.

Now, it was more a mixture of nervousness and unease.

This feeling was mainly because, subconsciously, she had taken Su Yu as Tang Song’s future wife.

If she had resigned herself to being the mistress, even representing him in holding shares of Star Cloud International Group, she couldn’t avoid facing the other woman.

In a situation where she was suppressed in all aspects, she naturally had to show weakness.

Forget it, it’s all Tang Song’s fault anyway! How dare he mess with me!

If she really got upset with Su Yu, she would take it out on Tang Song and let him rough her up!

Thinking this, Wen Ruan finally felt a little better, even a bit excited.

That was Su Yu!

The hottest superstar in the country, hailed as “Nuwa’s graduation project,” “a walking spotlight.”

Hiss—

It was hard to imagine what a woman like her would be like playing basketball with Tang Song.

Wondering if she would talk trash like Wen Ruan did.

…

“Ruannuan,” Qian Guixiang put things away and sat down next to her, smiling warmly, “Tomorrow is the twentieth day of the fifth lunar month. Is everything set with Tang Song? Can he make it over?”

“Thump—” A watermelon rind tumbled through the air, drawing a parabola and landing squarely in the trash can.

Wen Ruan pulled out a tissue to wipe the corner of her mouth, leaned back comfortably on the sofa, “Anyway, he said he could come over. He’ll stop by our place before noon and then head to Shengyuan Good Place together.”

“That’s great, that’s great!” Guixiang’s face flushed with excitement, patting her daughter’s thigh, “I’ve been cleaning up all day today, take a look around and see if there’s anything amiss, I can tidy up some more. It’s his first time visiting, we should try to make a good impression.”

She had seen Tang Song’s expansive flat in YJTC, and by comparison, their current home was much too modest.

After buying the home they ran out of money, and they had chosen the cheapest options for large pieces of furniture, resulting in low quality.

For example, the water dispenser, refrigerator, air conditioner, and other appliances were all leftovers from when they rented, and were pretty outdated.

They could only try to keep things clean and tidy.

Wen Ruan looked around the room and nodded indifferently, “No problem, Tang Song isn’t the type who fusses about these things.”

“Huh, it’s all about showing how much we care,” Guixiang murmured quietly, “Does Tang Song know about you becoming an executive at Star Cloud International’s subsidiary? If there’s anything we shouldn’t mention, make sure you let us know in advance, so we don’t look bad.”

Seeing her mother’s careful demeanor, Wen Ruan chuckled, “Mom, there’s nothing we can’t talk about, he knows everything.”

“That’s good, that’s good!” Guixiang advised earnestly, “Also, try to be warmer to him, communicate more. Even though Tang Song is younger, don’t you be too proud.”

She understood her daughter very well. Wen Ruan had been proud since she was little.

And her matchmaking dates had always been standoffish, just going for simple meals with those men, which had often been a source of complaints from the matchmakers.

Wen Ruan fell silent for a moment, then casually said, “It’s not like that, besides I’m earning so much money now. I can be financially independent, and breaking up wouldn’t matter.”

She decided to give her parents a heads-up just in case.

“Oh you silly girl!” Qian Guixiang tapped her on the head, “Even so, you’re just working for someone else, and you could be laid off at any time. It’s better to have someone to rely on.”

Wen Ruan said jokingly, “So if I really achieve financial independence, become a big boss, have savings in the millions, live in a big house, drive luxury cars, will you still push me to get married?”

Qian Guixiang paused and said, not too happy, “Stop daydreaming. If you were really that successful, we wouldn’t dare to control you!”

“Hehe, maybe it’ll come true someday, you’ll see,” Wen Ruan winked playfully.

About her upcoming position, she hadn’t revealed the specifics to her family yet.

In the past few days, she had been coordinating with Star Cloud International Group to restructure Light and Shadow Media.

With her arrival, the positions of several of the company’s senior executives and board members had shifted.

Star Cloud International wasn’t foolish, of course — they wouldn’t let these people leave their jobs.

The acquisition agreement had clear stipulations that they would continue working at the company for the next five years, and there were even revenue performance contingencies for Light and Shadow Media.

If they didn’t meet their targets, or if they maliciously shifted business away from the company, the money the shareholders received would be reduced.

Once everything here was settled, she would officially become the president of Light and Shadow Media.
