Rebirth in the 80s: The Scholar Wife is Cute
Chapter 1231: He Nan, aren’t you being a little too narrow-minded?

Chapter 1231: Chapter 1231: He Nan, aren’t you being a little too narrow-minded?

He Nan glanced at the necklace on the table and said, "Since you’ve decided to go abroad, it might be better to leave earlier."

Tang Ling was speechless, "If I didn’t know your temperament, you would have driven me crazy."

Ruan Feng gave Tang Ling a look and said to He Nan, "Xiaonan, come out with me for a moment, I have something to tell you."

He then walked towards the door. He Nan glanced at Tang Ling and followed him out.

"Uncle Ruan isn’t going to talk to He Nan about my business, is he?" Tang Ling shrugged, "But it makes sense, if it were me, I’d probably be worried too. Mianmian, are you afraid I’ll do something to you?"

Shen Mianmian was taken aback by the question, then she smiled and said, "I still hope that you’ve really come to terms with things and want to live a good life."

Tang Ling smiled openly, "Of course, although He Nan is great, he’s not worth hurting my parents over again for. Don’t worry! He Nan is no longer in my heart, I’m truly planning to emigrate."

Shen Mianmian smiled faintly.

Outside in the courtyard, once Ruan Feng was sure their conversation could not be heard from inside, he said, "Xiaonan, what’s the deal with Tang Ling? I always feel something’s off about her. It would be best to take Mianmian with you when you go out these days."

He Nan nodded, "This morning I saw Mianmian was still sleeping, so I didn’t call her to come with us."

It seemed safer to keep Shen Mianmian close by in the future.

Ruan Feng said, "Everyone’s going to have to work a bit harder these coming days. Until we’re certain Tang Ling has emigrated, it’s best to bring Mianmian along whenever you go out. This child is too strange; logically, after her daughter’s recent death, she shouldn’t be acting as if nothing happened so quickly. If you didn’t know better, you’d think she was the one getting married."

He Nan furrowed his brows slightly. Fearing to arouse Tang Ling’s suspicion with further talk, Ruan Feng said, "Lingyu has already agreed to the arrangements for Mianmian to leave home for the marriage. I need to go and prepare the house over the next few days, so keep a good eye on Mianmian."

He Nan nodded. After Ruan Feng left, he walked back into the courtyard.

Seeing that only he came in, Shen Mianmian asked in confusion, "Did dad leave?"

"Mm." He Nan nodded, then casually said, "The photo studio called to say that there’s a new wedding dress in the shop. I’ll take you to try it."

The wedding dress had already been selected, but hearing there was a new arrival, he still wanted to take Shen Mianmian to see it.

Shen Mianmian’s eyes lit up, "Okay."

The two of them were planning to check out wedding dresses, which implied the end of the visit, but Tang Ling showed no signs of leaving. Instead, she said, "Are you going to look at wedding dresses? Mianmian, do you mind if I come have a look too?"

Shen Mianmian: "..."

Before she could answer, He Nan refused, "It’s not convenient."

Tang Ling looked disappointed, "He Nan, you’re being too petty!"

"I’m sorry, it’s not convenient to bring you along this time. If there’s a chance, you’ll see the same thing when you attend our wedding." Shen Mianmian’s tone was polite, but her refusal was clear.

Tang Ling didn’t get angry, "Alright, if it’s not convenient for me, then I won’t go. You two go and look at wedding dresses, I’ll leave first."

All three walked out of the courtyard together. He Nan locked the door, and drove away with Shen Mianmian without any suggestion of giving Tang Ling a ride. Shen Mianmian also did not propose it.

Tang Ling watched the car drive away, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in her eyes. She slowly walked towards the exit of the residential area, and not long after, she ran into Zhu Yun who was walking over with her daughter.

"Tang Ling?"

Seeing Tang Ling, Zhu Yun was also surprised, calling her name from a distance.
