After I Transmigrated Into a Book, I Became the Stepmother of the Film Emperor - Chapter 12

Mo Yuting’s blunt question left Ruan Xiang frozen in place.

Even though he wanted to uphold the dignity of the Ruan family head and assert his identity as Mo Yuting’s future father-in-law, it was futile.

He felt weak in the knees.

But he couldn’t answer Mo Yuting’s question.

As Ruan Xiang remained silent, the atmosphere at the engagement party grew increasingly cold, with not a single sound from the guests.

At this moment, everyone was waiting for Mo Yuting to deliver his verdict on the Ruan family.

Even Ruan Wei, who had just lost the spotlight, was waiting to see if her schemes had any effect on Mo Yuting.

Silence continued to envelop the room.

Suddenly, the true authority and the object of everyone’s admiration, Mo Yuting, stepped off the stage accompanied by a group of imposing bodyguards. He exited the VIP room.

Shortly after, the ice beauty sitting at the corner table also quietly slipped away as if she had never been there at all.

“Mommy! You’re back!” Ruan An An, who was sitting obediently on a small stool, felt happy to see Ruan Meng return.

Although Ruan Meng had said she would take them home and had indeed brought them from the orphanage in City M to City A, Ruan An An still felt a bit anxious.

He was really… afraid of being abandoned by Mommy.

“???” Ruan Meng didn’t yet understand the phrase “child’s face June weather.” She paused and instinctively looked for Ruan Le Le.

To her, the only one capable of making Ruan An An worry was Ruan Le Le.

Just then, Ruan Le Le, who was playing wrestling with other children, was suddenly lifted from the play area by a delicate hand.

“???” Wearing a bewildered expression similar to Ruan Meng’s, Ruan Le Le looked at Ruan Meng who had sent her to her brother’s side. She asked, “Are we leaving?”

“Don’t make your brother worry.” As soon as Ruan Meng finished speaking, she saw two even more puzzled little faces and immediately frowned. “Speak!”

“Mommy, it’s nothing. We’re fine.”

Ruan An An felt that his mother’s IQ was questionable. He shook his head obediently and pushed the still-dazed Ruan Le Le back into the play area.

Not in a hurry to do anything, Ruan Meng noticed that Ruan An An’s eyes rarely left her and Ruan Le Le. Mimicking his earlier action, she pushed him back into the play area. “I’ll keep watch.”

“Does that mean Mommy will watch over me and my sister?”

Ruan Meng glanced at Ruan An An, whose hopeful eyes were dimming after she remained silent, and finally gave a slight “mm”.

“Don’t worry, Mommy! I’ll definitely take care of my sister!” The gentle Ruan An An smiled confidently and darted back to Ruan Le Le, only to immediately find Ruan Le Le wrestling with a child. As a result, he almost got ‘hit’ but was protected by Ruan Le Le.

“Are those two your children?” A kind woman standing nearby suddenly approached Ruan Meng with a friendly smile.

Her children?

Ruan Meng had previously denied it but now unconsciously nodded slightly.

“They’re very cute, you must be a good mother.”

Good mother?

Ruan Meng turned her head towards the two children in the play area, thinking, “They’re very well-behaved.”

She didn’t consider herself a good mother.

The woman noticed Ruan Meng’s subtle denial and smiled but said nothing more. She sensed that Ruan Meng was a new mother.

Even with her cold exterior, her nature was undeniable.

After the two children had played hard and worked up a sweat, Ruan Meng, who had a slight obsession with cleanliness, took the little ones back to the hotel.
