Rebirth in the 80s: The Scholar Wife is Cute
Chapter 1192 - 1191: Transformation

Ruan Lingyu sneered, wondering when it had started.

She couldn’t quite remember either. Perhaps it was when she accidentally overheard Ruan Feng and the Ruan family patriarch discussing how he didn’t want to marry her?

Or maybe it was when others gossiped behind her back about her clinging to the Ruan Family and shamelessly insisting on marrying Ruan Feng.

Thinking this, Ruan Lingyu said, "We’re already divorced, why bring up those things?"

Ruan Feng nodded, "Yes! Why talk about those things now?"

After finishing their noodles together, they each went back to their own homes. Ruan Lingyu took a few steps, couldn’t help but turn back for a glance, and saw Ruan Feng leaving decisively without even turning his head, which made her scoff in mockery. She had long known Ruan Feng never really wanted to marry her and after so many years, they ended up divorced.

She had given birth to a son and a daughter for the Ruan family, and thus considered her debts of gratitude towards them fully repaid.

With that thought, Ruan Lingyu made a call to Cheng Xining, who was busy filming. Picking up the phone Cheng Xining sweetly greeted her, "Auntie."

Ruan Lingyu said, "Don’t call me auntie anymore. I’m not your auntie now, I just divorced your uncle."

"Auntie, are you getting divorced from Uncle again?" Cheng Xining frowned.

"It’s already done," Ruan Lingyu replied. "I just left the civil affairs bureau. I’m fed up after all these years. Divorce will make everyone more comfortable. Right now, I feel so relieved, regretting why I didn’t get divorced five years ago and dragged it until now."

Hearing this, Cheng Xining’s expression changed, "Auntie, are you joking with me? How can you divorce Uncle?"

Without the marriage, where would Ruan Lingyu have the halo of Mrs. Ruan?

Even though she was called the mother of Ruan Yiqian, she couldn’t really make decisions in front of him, and outsiders wouldn’t give Ruan Lingyu much respect either.

"We’re already divorced, why discuss what’s done?" Ruan Lingyu, not noticing Cheng Xining’s tone, responded, "Stop calling me auntie. I don’t like the title. Xining, I’ve always treated you like a daughter, you know that. How about I officially make you my goddaughter and you can call me godmother instead?"

Ruan Lingyu thought this was a good idea. Once Cheng Xining became her goddaughter, they could refer to each other as mother and daughter.

She wasn’t planning to acknowledge Shen Mianmian as her daughter anymore. Having Cheng Xining would fill that void, and she could occasionally take her out for shopping or meals, just like a mother and daughter.

When Cheng Xining got married one day, she could even help her with the children.

"..." Cheng Xining was annoyed. Who would want to be Ruan Lingyu’s goddaughter?

Without the title of Mrs. Ruan, what halo could Ruan Lingyu possess?

It’s a simple matter yet she couldn’t grasp it. No wonder she divorced Uncle, really foolish.

Thinking this way, Cheng Xining held back her annoyance and said, "Aunt, I need to film now. Let’s talk about the goddaughter matter after I finish this film. If there’s nothing else, I’m going to hang up now."

After speaking, she directly hung up the phone.

Ruan Lingyu stared at the phone, feeling a wave of dejection. At this moment, she realized Cheng Xining’s change of stance, but she comforted herself not to overthink it, admitting that Cheng Xining was probably just busy with work and didn’t mean anything else by it.

Thinking that, Ruan Lingyu felt a bit more at ease.
