~9 min read 1,680 words

When Rong Ci and Rong Xun were having lunch, Rong Ci bought movie tickets.

After eating and watching the movie, they went shopping for a while.

While Rong Xun went in to try on clothes and Rong Yunhe went to buy figures, Rong Ci said to Feng Jingxin, "Mom will take you home in a while."

"Go home?" Feng Jingxin sat beside her and said, "I'm not going home. I'm going to stay at my grandmother's house for one more night and go back tomorrow night."

Rong Ci took a sip of water and said, "Xiao Xun and Yunhe have already accompanied you for a whole day. They need to calm down and do their homework tomorrow. You will disturb them if you are at the Rong family."

"I don't need them to accompany me. I can play with my tablet by myself."

Rong Ci didn't say anything more, but she found a time to send a message to Feng Tingshen, asking him to have someone pick up Feng Jingxin later.

Feng Tingshen might have been busy on his end, as he didn't reply for a long time.

After Rong Xun finished buying clothes, they shopped for a while longer and then returned to the Rong family.

Old Lady Rong and Rong Changsheng were actually very happy to see Feng Jingxin.

They truly loved her.

Feng Jingxin had a sweet mouth; after dinner, she even accompanied Old Lady Rong for a walk, coaxing Old Lady Rong until she was incredibly happy.

Feng Tingshen still hadn't replied to the message.

Feng Jingxin stayed at the Rong family that night.

The next day, Rong Xun and Rong Yunhe obediently stayed in their respective rooms to do their homework.

Feng Jingxin also kept her word; she went downstairs to find things to do by herself, or sat beside Rong Ci, and would not make a fuss.

At this time, Feng Tingshen sent a message to Rong Ci, saying that he would send someone to pick up Feng Jingxin in a while.

Rong Ci did not reply.

A few seconds later, Feng Jingxin's phone rang, and Feng Jingxin said to Rong Ci, "It's Dad's call."

Rong Ci gave an "um."

It was unclear what Feng Tingshen said on his end, but after Feng Jingxin put down her phone, she said to Rong Ci, "Mom, Dad said he's taking me out to play..."

Rong Ci: "Um, your dad told me. If you want to go, then go."

"Okay!"

Half an hour later, the car Feng Tingshen sent to pick up Feng Jingxin arrived.

When Old Lady Rong learned that Feng Jingxin was leaving, she was quite reluctant, and like every time before, she gave a lot of things for Feng Jingxin to take back to eat.

Watching the car leave, Old Lady Rong said with dissatisfaction, "I thought he was quite generous before, but I didn't expect... after only two days, he's in such a hurry to take her back."

After saying that, without waiting for Rong Ci to say anything, she went into the house with reluctance and melancholy.

At this time, Rong Ci's phone rang.

It was a call from Pei Xuchen.

He said, "I just received a call from Feng Tingshen. He said he will prepare a new divorce agreement within today. Compared to the old agreement, this one changes the property division; he intends to give you two or three more properties worth over a hundred million."

Upon hearing this, Rong Ci had no expression on her face.

Is Feng Tingshen doing this because he doesn't trust what she just said, feeling that she still wants to continue pestering him, so he cannot feel at ease if she doesn't take his things?

She said, "Alright, I know. I have no objections; I'll leave the rest to you."

On the other side.

Not long after Feng Tingshen left the ski resort, he went to pick up Lin Wu and headed to the restaurant.

When they arrived at the restaurant, besides the Sun family and the Lin family, there were others in the private room.

The private room was filled with a full table of people.

Seeing Feng Tingshen and Lin Wu appear together, Lin Lihai and Sun Manshan and the others immediately smiled.

Lin Wu sat down beside her aunt, Xiang Rufang.

After Feng Tingshen sat down, he began chatting with Mr. Qian, Mr. Liu, and the others in the room.

Xiang Rufang leaned into Lin Wu's ear and lowered her voice, saying, "Xiao Wu, just now your uncle and the others heard that Tingshen is going to hand over a Feng Group project to the Rong family to do!"

Lin Wu said, "I already know about this."

Xiang Rufang said anxiously, "I heard that in the two or three days since Old Lady Feng was injured, Tingshen and Rong Ci, and even others from the Rong family, have been interacting quite frequently. Yesterday, someone even saw Tingshen eating with that old lady from the Rong family. Could they be rekindling their old flame?"

"They never had any feelings to begin with, so where would a rekindling come from?" Lin Wu was very calm, but she did not like Xiang Rufang's choice of words.

Seeing Xiang Rufang so anxious, she had to explain to her, "Old Lady Feng has a relatively good relationship with the Rong family. Tingshen needs to stabilize Rong Ci and the old lady from the Rong family so that they will go visit Old Lady Feng; only then will Old Lady Feng not take the opportunity to use refusing surgery as a pretext to threaten Tingshen into breaking up with me."

Xiang Rufang had not expected it to be like this.

Because of this fall, Old Lady Feng had already kicked their two families out of the Feng Group.

For the past two days, both their families had been quite worried that Old Lady Feng would threaten Feng Tingshen with the condition of a complete breakup between Feng Tingshen and Lin Wu before she would agree to the surgery.

They were also worried that Feng Tingshen would compromise.

Now that Feng Tingshen and Lin Wu were still doing fine, they had thought it was Feng Tingshen who had persuaded Old Lady Feng; they hadn't expected it to be Feng Tingshen acting from the Rong family's side, solving the matter directly.

Thinking of this, Xiang Rufang immediately felt at ease and asked, "So, that project is Tingshen's thank-you gift to the Rong family?"

"Yes," Lin Wu said, "It is both a thank-you gift and a way to draw a clear line."

Hearing this, Xiang Rufang couldn't help but exclaim, "Tingshen's way of doing things is indeed thorough; no wonder he can manage all his companies so well."

With things developing for the better, Xiang Rufang should have been happy.

However...

Not knowing what she thought of, she had been happy for less than a minute before frowning again, "Now that the Rong family has already taken on a Chang Mo project because of Rong Ci, there are already signs of them coming back to life. If they take another Feng Group project to do, wouldn't the Rong family company truly be coming back from the dead?"

Speaking of this, Lin Wu's expression turned cold as she said, "They didn't take that project."

"They didn't take it?"

Before Lin Wu could answer, Xiang Rufang understood, "They intend to let Tingshen owe them a favor, so that Rong Ci can remain entangled with Tingshen? They really have a good plan!"

Now that Feng Tingshen and Rong Ci were about to officially divorce, Xiang Rufang would not allow such trouble to occur.

She said, "We must not fall for their scheme—"

Lin Wu was quite calm; she said, "Don't worry, Tingshen will handle it well."

Listening to this, Xiang Rufang recalled that so many things had happened, and Feng Tingshen had never let them down once.

Since Feng Tingshen dared to give the project, he probably guessed that the Rong family would push for more.

Feng Tingshen is so smart; he must have already thought of a response strategy, right?

Thinking of this, Xiang Rufang felt completely at ease.

After a while, as if thinking of something else, she asked, "By the way, have you gone to see Old Lady Feng in the past two days?"

Hearing this, Lin Wu said, "No."

Xiang Rufang was a bit disappointed. Lin Wu said, "There can be no mistakes during the old lady's recovery period."

At this time, it was not appropriate for her to appear.

Besides, although Feng Tingshen had stabilized Rong Ci and the old lady from the Rong family, successfully getting Old Lady Feng to have the surgery.

But Old Lady Feng's recuperation and recovery also need time, and she still needs Rong Ci and the old lady from the Rong family.

As for her side, she was not in a hurry.

No matter what she did, she could not insert herself between her and Feng Tingshen.

Rong Ci smiled, but...

She looked at Old Lady Rong.

Regarding Lin Wu, she didn't know if she...

Old Lady Rong happened to be looking down and did not see Lin Wu.

Rong Ci didn't mention it either; she withdrew her gaze, took Old Lady Rong's arm, and walked toward the hospital entrance.

Since Lin Wu was downstairs, it meant Feng Tingshen must be there too.

Sure enough, when Rong Ci and Old Lady Rong entered the room, Feng Tingshen was indeed there.

Seeing her and Old Lady Rong come over, he greeted them.

Rong Ci's expression was cold.

Seeing them come over, Old Lady Feng was naturally very happy; she held Old Lady Rong's hand and said, "I've troubled you, my old sister, to come see me again."

"We've been friends for so many years, why say such things."

Rong Ci and Old Lady Rong sat down.

They both noticed that Old Lady Feng's spirit and complexion were much better today than they had been in the past two days.

They also felt relieved.
