Chapter 695: An Uneasy Feeling

The next day, Ling Tianxin was up early in the morning. Usually, she would run out of her room as soon as she woke up and cry for her mother.

But today, things were a little different. When she opened her eyes, Madame Ling was sitting at the foot of her bed. Ling Tianxin was already fearful of her, and she had never spent time alone with her before. When she saw Madame Ling, she quickly covered her face with the duvet, and she didn’t even dare to look her in the eye..

When she saw Ling Tianxin’s adverse reaction to her, Madame Ling’s face turned dark. However, she quickly remembered her motive and broke into a smile again as she spoke gently to Ling Tianxin, “You’re awake, Tianxin?”

The small head underneath the sheet nodded, but she refused to make a sound.

Madame Ling’s expression turned dark again, but she tried her best to be patient with Ling Tianxin. “What are you planning to do today?” she asked.

After a long while, Ling Tianxin said weakly, “I want Mama…”

“You want to see your mother?” Madame Ling chuckled in a friendly manner.

Madame Ling would usually kick up a huge fuss whenever Ling Tianxin asked for her mother. However, instead of getting angry with her, Madame Ling was smiling at her today.

Ling Tianxin thought that Grandma was being odd, and she poked her head out tentatively. She tried her luck again and shouted, “I want my mother!”

Madame Ling nodded her head and smiled. “Alright then, Grandma will take you to look for your mother.”

Ling Tianxin sat bolt upright. She was smiling brightly now. “Really? Grandma isn’t angry with me? Grandma is going to take me to look for my mother?”

Madame Ling laughed. “Grandma isn’t angry. I’ll take you to your mother today.”

Ling Tianxin started cheering and clapping loudly. Madame Ling was shocked and quickly stopped her. She looked around nervously and whispered to Ling Tianxin, “We need to be quiet! This is a secret between the two of us, and nobody can find out about this.”

“Why?” Ling Tianxin didn’t understand.

Madame Ling really detested Ling Tianxin, but she tried her best to keep a friendly tone. “Your father and Aunty Xiao Hong don’t approve of you going to look for your mother. Grandma is going to take you to her secretly. If they find out about our plan, we won’t be able to go look for your mother.”

Ling Tianxin was completely fooled. Trusting Madame Ling, she nodded her head seriously. She replied softly, “Ok Grandma. Tianxin knows now. Let’s go look for Mother secretly.”

“Hmm, Tianxin is a good girl.” Madame Ling’s eyes were twinkling now. “Go put on your clothes quickly! Grandma will take you to Mama.”

“Ok!” Ling Tianxin replied happily and started dressing herself contentedly.

Madame Ling looked venomously at Ling Tianxin who was as happy as a lark. She looked so innocent. Ling Tao was going to bring that b*tch, Yu Meizi back for this wretched girl, but she would never allow that to happen!

If Ling Tianxin was gone, all the problems would vanish along with her. Ling Tao was too soft hearted to chase this crazy girl away, so she would do it, the further the better!

Without Ling Tianxin throwing a tantrum, the Ling villa was exceptionally quiet that morning. Ling Tao and Xiao Hong slept in until late morning.

When the two of them woke up, they realized that something was out of the ordinary. Ling Tianxin was so quiet; could it be that Yu Meizi had arrived earlier than expected?

When the two of them found Ling Tianxin’s room empty and Madame Ling nowhere to be found, an uneasy feeling bubbled over the two of them.
