Chapter 318: As Lowly As Dust

A lady came tottering up timidly in her bridesmaid dress, stopping in her tracks the moment she saw the three mountains from a far distance away. She stopped where she was and instead told Ling Tianya that Guan Meiyi wanted to see her.
Ling Tianya watched Ruan Zeyan beside them, and the man tapped her shoulder, “Big Guy will follow you.”
Ling Tianya nodded. She was not too worried that Guan Meiyi would do anything bad to her during her own wedding, seeing how proud Guan Meiyi was. But since Ruan Zeyan asked for it, Big Guy had to follow suit.
Ling Tianya led Big Guy to the makeup room, and they saw Guan Meiyi sitting before the mirrors.
Through the mirror, Guan Meiyi watched Ling Tianya. Ling Tianya had never changed, but she was still better than her in every way.
Guan Meiyi’s eyes landed on Big Guy standing behind Ling Tianya. There was no one else in the room now either, and even Ling Tianya felt that it was a little awkward that Big Guy was the only man in the room.
“Wait for me by the door.”
“But boss asked me to...”
“It’s okay, just wait for me by the door.”
Seeing that Ling Tianya had strongly requested for it, Big Guy could only obey. “Miss Ling, I will be by the door. If you need me, just call for me.”
“All right.”
Guan Meiyi felt as though someone had dripped lemon juice all over the scars on her heart. “Even though you’re only coming to see me, Ruan Zeyan still has to ask someone to protect you. Is he afraid that I would do something bad to you?”
Ling Tianya closed the door to the makeup room, walking towards Guan Meiyi, a light smile on her face. “I know you won’t.”
Guan Meiyi’s brows furrowed. “How are you so sure?”
“Because you are Guan Meiyi. This is your wedding. You will not allow for anything to go wrong on your wedding so that others can make fun of it.”
Guan Meiyi was a little surprised that the only person that really understood her was Ling Tianya.
“Whatever could have gone wrong already has anyways.” Guan Meiyi’s eyes fell, and she wanted to cry but she had long since ran out of tears.
Ling Tianya knew what she was referring to. No one looked forward to this wedding. It was an indisputable fact that in order to save his business, Guan Jianlin had sold his daughter away. Plus, with He Zhenxuan’s infamous playboy nature, and the endless comments against Guan Meiyi online, there was nothing to be happy about.
“Actually, you don’t have to marry him.”
Guan Meiyi shook her head. “I have no choice. Just like you didn’t six years ago.”
Ling Tianya was surprised that Guan Meiyi had actually brought it up on her own accord.
“So, what did you call me here for?” Ling Tianya asked.
Guan Meiyi seemed to still be putting up a final fight. She stood up suddenly in her wedding gown, bowing a deep bow towards Ling Tianya. “Tianya, I apologize to you, and I’m apologizing on my mother’s behalf. She has received the punishment she deserves. I hope that you can forgive her for what she had done six years ago.”
As long as the wedding went ahead successfully, Guan Jianlin would let Guan Meiyi bring Ling Qi out. Guan Meiyi knew that as soon as her mother was out from the mental institution, her father would immediately divorce her. Her mother is in the wrong too, and would leave this marriage with nothing to show for it.
Her mother would lose the Guan family’s protection. On her own, she would be extremely fragile. If Ling Tianya continued to press charges and ask for her mother to take responsibility, her mother would have absolutely no ability to retaliate and could only sit there and take it.
“Tianya, I know that you hate my mom, and I know that what she did back then had hurt you deeply. But, please forgive her on the account that she’s your aunt and your father’s sister. Please.”
Ling Tianya looked at Guan Meiyi. This woman that had always ordered her around would actually put herself down so low today, low to the point that she was worth nothing more than dust.
