Ruan Tianling stood up and approached his mother.
He grasped her shoulders and said softly, "Mom, don't you understand? That is my shame. If you gave it to me after the wedding was over, this shame would follow me for a lifetime. Do you want your son to suffer for a lifetime?"
Ruan's mother's eyes widened shockingly, as she really hadn't considered this point.
"But..."
"Mom, am I still your son?" Ruan Tianling asked softly.
"In your eyes, which is more important, your son or your grandson? If you want grandsons, I can give you many, but if you don't have a son, then you have nothing," he added.
"Tianling, what do you mean by that?" Ruan's mother exclaimed in alarm. "Don't do anything foolish..."
Ruan Tianling laughed and said, "I don't mean anything by it. I just want you to know that your son is the most important thing to you, so you should be concerned about my feelings."
"Tianling, Mom knows you have been wronged. But is marrying Yan Yue really so difficult?"
