Murong Rong couldn't help laughing when he heard Rong Jiuci's tone of voice, which was like coaxing a child: "I'm not a fool. You've made it so obvious, how could I not know? Doesn't that make me a fool?"
After a pause, she whispered her thanks in a serious voice: "Rong Jiuci, thank you."
When Rong Jiuci heard Murong Rong thank you, his eyebrows relaxed and he said deliberately: "Rong Rong, didn't I teach you? Thank you with concrete actions, not just two words. Just like last night, I will be very happy."
Murong Rong slapped Rong Jiuci on the face as he came closer: "Go away."
After arguing with Rong Jiuci for a while, Murong Rong's pretty face suddenly turned serious: "Don't do this again. I know you don't like her, but she is my mother after all. This is something that cannot be changed. If she is unhappy, I
I really can’t stand by and watch.”
"Okay, I promise you."
Rong Jiuci agreed very happily, but Murong Rong felt embarrassed: "I don't doubt you, I just..."
"I know everything. But there is one thing I hope you will promise me."
"Well, you say."
Rong Jiuci looked at Murong Rong seriously: "If your mother asks you for one million, you can't give it to her."
Murong Rong felt that Rong Jiuci was overthinking, and explained: "My mother is a stubborn person, and she has always disliked me the most. Please trouble me, she won't take one million from me."
Murong Rong's expression was a little sad. It hurt her heart that the relationship between mother and daughter was so estranged.
"You just need to promise me."
"Nine words?"
"Rong Rong, you will believe me if you tell me."
Murong Rong nodded: "Okay, I listen to you."
Rong Jiuci's expression relaxed a little and said, "I will ask the old house to arrange for a servant to come over and make dinner later. Just tell the servant what you want to eat."
Murong Rong refused: "Don't bother me. I will come back early to cook for you tonight. You will also take Chen Chen over tonight."
Rong Jiuci's handsome face was a little dark: "Rong Rong, is it true that you just said thank you? Why do I think you want to repay a favor with a grudge?"
Murong Rong thought about the disagreement between Rong Jiuci and Chen Chen, and was speechless: "Rong Jiuci, you said how old you are, and you still behave like a child."
"Then you have to ask what this brat has done? Every day, he is either thinking about stealing a wife from me, or else he is thinking about finding a new father for himself. For such an unlucky son, I have to bear with her.
It’s for his own sake.”
Murong Rong couldn't stop laughing when he heard this. People said that father and son were enemies, and it was true.
"very funny?"
Seeing the man's suddenly dangerous look, Murong Rong immediately said solemnly: "It's not funny, it's not funny at all. I just thought of a cold joke. By the way, I have to leave early, I have to go at ten in the morning
Association meeting."
Rong Jiuci nodded. Originally, he planned to send Murong Rong off, but there was still a morning meeting, and Assistant Yang had already called to remind him.
When she separated from Murong Rong, Rong Jiuci stopped her: "Wait a minute."
"What's wrong?"
"You will probably run into Aunt Lin when you go to the meeting today. If you see her today, just avoid her."
Rong Jiuci thought about the paternity test results she had received and warned Murong Rong.
Murong Rong looked at Rong Jiuci's serious look and nodded, turned around and left.
Rong Jiuci grabbed Murong Rong's wrist: "You just left like that?"
Murong Rong's face was filled with confusion: "What else?"
What are you going to do if you don’t leave? Do you want to chat for a while?
Rong Jiuci saw through Murong Rong's doubts and couldn't help but take a deep breath: "I told you to avoid Aunt Lin, don't you ask why?"
"Of course it's because she is not only an elder but also a senior. As a junior, if we don't get along with each other, it would be better for me to avoid her. Isn't that what you mean?"
"..."
yes.
That's what he meant.
But Lin Lanxin is Ye Wanxin's mother after all. If he asked like this, wouldn't Murong Rong misunderstand her? Wouldn't she be jealous?
Murong Rong saw the meaning behind Rong Jiuci's words, and she laughed: "I won't misunderstand, because I believe you."
With that said, he walked forward and hugged Rong Jiuci.
Murong has a shy temperament and is also very reserved.
In normal intimacy, she was always shy and passive, but now she took the initiative to hug him. Still in public.
Rong Jiuci felt that the depression in his heart was suddenly relieved.
"Go to work. I'll pick you up in the evening."
Murong Rong nodded and got into another car.
Rong Jiuci waited until Murong Rong's car was out of sight before he looked away and got into the Maybach.
When he got in the car, Yang Kaiqing was answering the phone.
"...Ms. Li, I really can't give you a definite answer. OK, OK, I will definitely try my best. OK, thank you for your consideration."
Yang Kaiqing patiently listened to what the other party said before hanging up the phone.
Rong Jiuci raised his eyelids: "A call from Li Xiuqin?"
"You heard it." Yang Kaiqing did not hide anything: "Ms. Li asked, what can you leave for her in the villa in Lishui Bay? She is still asking me tentatively, can I persuade you to spend less? Of course it is best.
It's free.
Finally, she also said that if this thing is completed, she will give me a favor fee, and then she can persuade my wife to take more care of me and support me more."
Yang Kaiqing couldn't help but sigh: "I suddenly discovered that Ms. Li is really a very wise woman. She understands the advantages around her and the weaknesses of human nature."
"Really?" The expression on Rong Jiuci's face was very cold: "Why do I think she is so stupid? If she had a little brain and a little understanding of people's hearts, she would not end up like she did today."
Yang Kaiqing was silent and fully agreed with Rong Jiuci's words.
If only Li Xiuqin had been kinder and more affectionate to Murong Rong, and if Rong Jiuci had valued Murong Rong, she would have obtained the villa long ago, instead of using this villa to test Li Xiuqin.
Rong Jiuci threw out the bait of the villa just to predict that Li Xiuqin would not give up easily and she would definitely do something.
The more she does, the more Murong Rong's feelings for her will be worn away, so that when the truth is revealed, Murong Rong won't be so sad.
The more Yang Kaiqing thought about it, the more he felt that Mr. Rong was right, Li Xiuqin was an idiot.
As long as she is sincere to her wife, even if she exposes her sincerely, her wife's temper will protect her.
…
When Murong Rong arrived, Ji Baibai was already waiting for her at the door.
Murong Rong frowned when she saw Ji Baibai: "You didn't rest yesterday, okay?"
"how do you know?"
Ji Baibai quickly took out the mirror and carefully observed the makeup on his face: "There is obviously no trace of it. How did you find out?"
Murong Rong was speechless: "You only wear makeup when you are in bad condition. Do you understand this time?"
"Oh." Ji Baibai smiled.
Seeing Murong Rong staring at her, he put away the exaggerated expression on his face: "Actually, it's okay, but after a nap, I couldn't fall asleep when I woke up.
You don't have to worry about me, it's really okay. Think about it, what I encountered is a big deal. If I didn't react at all, wouldn't it be too heartless?
However, I am still very firm, just like that sentence, let him be strong, and the breeze will blow on the hills."
