Chapter 1154: Treated Like a Servant

It was dinner time and the sun had already set when Xu Cheng returned home. The moment Xu Cheng walked into the house, which Mdm. Ruan had bought for the three of them, she saw Huang Ying waiting on her grandmother as if she was a servant.

Xu Cheng’s eyes darkened in silence. The old lady had been bossing Hung Ying around like a servant all this time. Huang Ying was unhappy about it, but there was nothing she could say. The old lady was furious about the fact that Huang Ying had seduced Ruan Qi Shang in the Ruans’ own home. Huang Ying had tried so hard to talk herself out of it, and she had begged to be allowed to stay here.

If she was asked to leave, Huang Ying had no idea what she would do. She didn’t have many relatives left, and there were neighbors who might recognize her if she returned to her family.

Therefore, even if she was treated like a servant, she had to live with it.

Seeing that Xu Cheng was back, the old lady asked impatiently, “How did it go? How do you feel after your first day of work?”

Xu Cheng frowned as she remembered how Ling Tianya had left her there alone. “Ling Tianya didn’t take me seriously. She sent me there and then left. She went out for a decent meal for lunch, while I had to go to the staff canteen by myself. And she told me to come home by myself tonight.”

Hearing Xu Cheng’s complaints, the old lady frowned as well. “Absurd! So those sweet words were only meant for Liao Cuicui’s benefit. She still didn’t treat you with the importance you deserve!”

Without a second thought, the old lady grabbed the phone and was about to call Mdm. Ruan to complain about Ling Tianya. Ling Tianya had promised to take good care of Xu Cheng, but she left Xu Cheng alone on the very first day.

Xu Cheng stopped her grandmother immediately when she saw that the old woman was about to make the call. “Don’t do that, Grandma. Making a call won’t help. Ling Tianya must have prepared all sorts of excuses for why she treated me like, and the house isn’t in your name yet. We should try not to argue with your sister.”

Unwillingly, the old lady set the phone back in its cradle. “So are you still going to work tomorrow? You don’t have to go if you don’t want to.”

“I’m going. Of course, I’ll go,” Xu Cheng confirmed. “I won’t let Ling Tianya think less of me. Also...”

Xu Cheng didn’t finish the sentence as Eric popped up in her head. She had told Eric she was a scriptwriter in Zhiya Entertainment, and that she was helping out Ling Tianya. If she quit now, what would Eric think of her?

“Also what?” the old lady asked.

“Nothing. Is dinner ready, Grandma? I’m starved!” Xu Cheng was as bright as the sunshine when she thought about Eric.

Hearing that her precious granddaughter was hungry, the old lady shouted at Huang Ying, “What are you doing? Set up for dinner! Are you trying to starve us?”

“I’ll do that right away,” Huang Ying answered obsequiously, trying to put up the old lady’s harshness.

Xu Cheng couldn’t bear to see her mother being bossed around in this way. She stood up from the couch and said, “I’ll give you a hand, mom.”

“You won’t do a thing!” the old lady shouted. “Those hands are meant for typing your scripts, and you want to use them for dirty chores? Let that b*tch do it, since she could do anything low and dirty!”

At that, Huang Ying clenched her jaw in anger, turned around, and walked to the kitchen.

“Grandma, don’t say that. She is still my mother.” Xu Cheng was worried about Huang Ying, but she knew her own Grandma’s temper.

“What mother? You should be ashamed that you have a mother like that!”

Xu Cheng stopped talking at once as she felt her grandmother’s fury well up. The more she tried to persuade her grandmother, the angrier the old woman would get.
