Tang Guoren furrowed his brows and approached, sitting on the makeup chair by the bed. He looked at Shanshan Ruan and asked, "Shan Shan, what's wrong? Are you unsatisfied with this arranged marriage? Why did you speak to your sister that way earlier?"
Shanshan Ruan, who was currently despising Tang Min with gritted teeth, sat up suddenly upon hearing this. She looked at Tang Guoren and said, "Dad, Tang Min... Tang Min..."
She used up her strength trying to speak, but to no avail, and instead stared at Tang Guoren with tearful eyes full of accusation.
This was a trick taught to her by her mother; to show patience and endure in front of Tang Guoren, arousing his curiosity by appearing so upset that he couldn't help but ask about it.
Shanshan Ruan did a good job portraying this. Tang Guoren began to frown upon see her expression, thinking that Tang Min was becoming increasingly insolent and disobedient as she grew up, just like her mother.
