Murong Rong was very surprised: "Why are you here?"
"What's wrong? Can't I be here? Or do you think I've lost your people here and embarrassed you?"
Listening to her mother's aggressive words, Murong Rong quickly shook her head: "How is that possible? Mom, you think too much."
"Since you said that I was overthinking it, then show it to me and make me believe that what you just said was not a lie to me?"
Murong Rong didn't expect her mother to say that. She paused and asked, "How do you want me to express it?"
"Come back with me for a meal and stay with me for one night." Li Xiuqin said, "Have you not been to the new place I moved to? You just happened to go there today to have a look."
Murong Rong did not expect that her mother would make such a request: "I..."
"Rong Rong, don't you want to refuse?" Li Xiuqin frowned, looking very unhappy: "Or did you lie to me just now? If you climb onto the high branch of Mr. Rong, you can't even look down on your mother?"
Li Xiuqin's voice became louder and louder, attracting some passers-by.
Ji Baibai couldn't stand it anymore: "Auntie, if you have something to say, don't you sincerely embarrass Rong Rong?"
"Ms. Ji, when I'm talking to my daughter, it's your turn to interrupt!"
Li Xiuqin's words showed no emotion at all.
"Mom, why are you talking to Bai Bai like this? She also cares about me."
"You mean, Ji Baibai cares about you, but as a mother, I want to harm you, right?"
"I don't."
"Okay, Murong Rong, just tell me, do you want to go home with me tonight?" Li Xiuqin's attitude was tough, but her voice was choked: "You kid, if your mother has to kneel down and beg you, you
Are you just going home with me?"
"Mom!" Murong Rong immediately supported Li Xiuqin, who was about to kneel down, and she sighed: "I'll go back with you, okay?"
Li Xiuqin just gave up.
Murong Rong breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Ji Baibai apologetically: "We can only make an appointment for dinner another day."
Ji Baibai nodded: "I will take you to the venue tomorrow morning."
Murong Rong shook his head and said, "No, I can just drive there myself, saving you the trouble of going back and forth."
When Ji Baibai saw Murong Rong insisting, he said, "Then I will go to the scene to cheer you on."
Murong Rong nodded and left Ji Baibai without talking to her.
Rong Jiuci went on a temporary business trip this morning and won't be back until tomorrow. Chenchen is staying in the old house, so Murong Rong doesn't have to worry about it.
After she sent a message to Mrs. Xiang, she started the car.
It was so quiet in the car that you could even hear each other's breathing.
Li Xiuqin glanced at Murong Rong, and when she saw that she had not spoken, she finally couldn't help it anymore: "Rong Rong, are you angry with me?"
Murong Rong still didn't speak.
Li Xiuqin suddenly became anxious, and her eyes immediately turned red: "Yes, you must be angry with me. You are angry that I have made you lose face in front of your friends. But there is nothing my mother can do. I want to see you and want you to
Come home with me, but you are unwilling to cooperate..."
"If I don't want to cooperate, is my mother going to kneel down to me on the street?" Thinking of the scene just now, Murong Rong couldn't control her emotions.
"Mom, what do you have to say, can't you tell me? Do you know how uncomfortable it will be for me if you do this? Or, as long as you achieve your goal, you don't care what I think? It doesn't matter what I can do in the future.
You can’t be a human being, right?”
"No. I have never had such an idea." Li Xiuqin quickly explained: "I...I just miss you so much. Rong Rong, don't you think our mother and daughter are too estranged?"
"But you said that not all mothers in this world love their daughters with all their hearts. You also said that you can raise me, but you can't love me."
"I……"
Li Xiuqin was speechless for a moment. She felt a little regretful. If she had known things would turn out like this, she would not have been so indifferent to Murong Rong.
As a result, the relationship between mother and daughter became so estranged that she was unable to help Wan Xin.
"I regret it, Rong Rong, mom is getting old."
Li Xiuqin sighed deeply, her voice full of exhaustion.
She is really getting old, and she always feels that her energy is not as good as before. She really doesn't know how long she can help Wan Xin.
Murong Rong turned her head and looked over. Through the dim light outside the car window, she saw the silver threads in Li Xiuqin's hair and the deeper wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
Murong Rong's heart suddenly softened.
As my mother said, she is old.
Murong Rong took a long breath and was no longer so angry.
"I will try my best to spend time with you in the future."
Li Xiuqin turned around and saw the seriousness on Murong Rong's face.
She didn't lie.
Li Xiuqin couldn't help but smile and responded.
She leaned her back completely into the back of the chair, and her eyebrows relaxed a little.
Or her family was smart and knew Murong Rong's weaknesses.
The car was parked in an old neighborhood.
This community was originally a home for the families of a power plant, but because the environment was not very good, many people changed their houses and rented out their houses after they became able.
The house Li Xiuqin rented was not considered good among these old houses.
"Aunt Li, you are back."
Li Xiuqin opened the door with the key, and a man in his thirties walked out of another bedroom.
"Hey, I'm back. My daughter came to see me today."
The man's eyes moved to Murong Rong. When he saw Murong Rong's face, her eyes clearly flashed with stunning light: "Aunt Li, your daughter is so beautiful."
Li Xiuqin said with a smile: "You deserve the award."
"This is not a compliment, but the truth." The man was neatly dressed and it looked like he was going out, but after seeing Murong Rong, he couldn't walk and his eyes were glued to Murong Rong.
Murong Rong couldn't help but frowned: "Mom, I'm going back to your room first."
"good."
Li Xiuqin seemed not to notice anything and led Murong Rong back to the room.
The man smacked his mouth, looking very regretful.
In the bedroom.
Murong Rong frowned and asked: "Mom, why do you share a room with others?"
"What's wrong with shared housing? The rent is cheap. Anyway, I'm old and can't live with my daughter, so it doesn't matter where I live." Li Xiuqin looked like she didn't care at all.
Murong Rong felt uncomfortable when she heard that. She couldn't help but pursed her lips. She thought for a while and said, "Mom, let's do this. I'll give you some more money, and you can add the money from selling your old house. Let's go
Buy a one-bedroom house in the new community. It will be more convenient to live in.”
Li Xiuqin disagreed: "No, I don't want to buy a house."
"Why?"
Of course, it was because she had already spent all the money from selling her old house, and she didn't even have much savings left, so how could she afford to buy a house.
But she had to keep this matter secret, otherwise Murong Rong would definitely become suspicious.
