Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 516: Chapter 516: Sister-in-Law

Gu Lingling ran out with her face covered, not daring to go to the living room for fear of being seen, she headed straight into the bathroom.

Her face was burning hot.

The warmth and breath left by him still seemed to linger between her lips.

She touched her red lips with her hand, looking at her blushing, shy reflection in the mirror. If she went out like this, no one would need to say anything to know what had happened.

She carefully touched the pendant on her neck, liking it more and more as she looked at it.

A deep sweetness spread to her heart.

Speaking of which, this was the first time in two lifetimes she received such a gift, realizing this is what it feels like to be valued by someone.

If Yang Yunhai were here at this moment, he would definitely see the girl in the mirror smiling foolishly, yet so sweetly and happily.

Meanwhile, Shen Lingyu had not shown up since being greatly upset that day in the hospital.

”Why are you sleeping all day like a dead person? What exactly do you want to do?” Shen Lingyu’s mother, Li Hongchun, pushed open her room door and saw her lying under the quilt again, and said angrily.

”Ugh, you’re so annoying.” The quilt was lifted by Li Hongchun, Shen Lingyu, with her hair a mess, sat up on the bed, then grabbed the quilt to cover her head to continue sleeping.

”Look at the state you’re in now, who would like you like this.” Li Hongchun pointed at her angrily and said, ”I’m telling you, Yunfeng just called to say he wants to take you out to play, you better not refuse again this time.”

”Xiao Yu, listen to your mother.” Li Hongchun sat by her bed and earnestly advised, ”Playing hard to get is fine, but if you overdo it, it becomes pretentious.”

”I think Yunfeng is much better than Yunhai, for a woman to find someone who cares about her is better than anything.” Li Hongchun said, ”I’ve been through it, it’s all for your own good.”

”Once upon a time, when there was no one by Yunhai’s side, your mother supported you, at least we still had a chance.” Li Hongchun said this and got so angry, ”But now, everyone knows Yang Yunhai already has a fiancée, if you keep pushing like this, won’t people just laugh at you?”

Although they are already a laughing stock now, at least they can still save a little face.

Shen Lingyu lay in the quilt like a corpse.

Li Hongchun continued speaking regardless, ”I think Yunfeng is pretty good, with your bad temper always snapping at him, and yet he still eagerly comes over, you should be satisfied.”

”I really don’t know what spell Yang Yunhai has cast on you.”

She angrily pushed her through the quilt, ”So you just refuse to be tough? Did you hear what I said?”

”I just won’t accept it.”

Shen Lingyu flung the quilt open and, with her hair disheveled, said, ”I’ve liked him for so many years, and now you want me to switch, I can’t do it.”

”You have to, even if you can’t.” Li Hongchun said, ”Otherwise what do you want to do? If it were me, I would marry Yang Yunfeng.”

”Being his sister-in-law would disgust him to death, wouldn’t it?” Li Hongchun said through gritted Silver Teeth.

”Sister-in-law?” Shen Lingyu stared blankly at Li Hongchun, ”Sister-in-law?”

”Yes, this way you can still see him often.” Li Hongchun said nonchalantly, not noticing the flash in Shen Lingyu’s eyes.

”When did he say he was coming?” Shen Lingyu asked woodenly.

”Huh?” Li Hongchun hadn’t reacted yet, and when Shen Lingyu looked at her, she finally realized, ”Oh, he said he’d come pick you up in half an hour. Oh dear, it’s almost time, isn’t it?”

”Let him wait a bit then.” Shen Lingyu finished speaking, flung the quilt aside, and sat up.

Was this... about to start dressing up?

”That’s more like it.” Li Hongchun closed the door with a smile and went downstairs.
