Chapter 152: A happy family of three

After Rong Ci, Rong Xun, and the others finished setting off fireworks, they said something to Old Lady Rong and the others and then went out.

They went to the Ducheng Radio and Television Tower.

The Ducheng Radio and Television Tower was an excellent place to overlook the night view of the entire Ducheng.

On New Year's Eve, there would be wonderful light shows and other performances here.

When they arrived at the Radio and Television Tower, many people had already gathered above.

All around were laughter and joy.

At this moment, the light show hadn't started yet.

Rong Yunhe had arranged with several classmates in his class to celebrate the New Year together at the Radio and Television Tower this evening.

After they arrived for a while, Rong Yunhe's friends came over to meet up with him.

Seeing her and Rong Xun, Rong Yunhe's classmates obediently followed Rong Yunhe in calling them sisters, and then couldn't help but steal glances at Rong Ci, saying to Rong Yunhe: "Your sisters are all so beautiful! Super beautiful!"

Rong Yunhe: "That's right!"

The few young people were playing around, picking up their phones to take photos and record videos.

Rong Ci and Rong Xun didn't disturb them.

At this moment, Rong Ci's phone rang.

It was a message from He Zhangbai: 【Are you going to the TV tower to watch the light show tonight?】

Rong Ci didn't know why he asked this, but still replied: 【Already here, what's wrong?】

He Zhangbai also replied quickly: 【Seeing Dan Dan and I are on our way too.】

Rong Ci paused: 【I see...】

That was really a coincidence.

He Zhangbai didn't reply again.

A while later, the light show began.

Rong Ci smiled, and just as she was watching with rapt attention, she suddenly seemed to hear Seeing Dan Dan's voice: "Aunt Rong!"

Rong Ci turned her head and really saw He Zhangbai and Seeing Dan Dan.

Seeing Rong Ci look over, Seeing Dan Dan was even happier, excitedly reaching out her hand toward her.

Rong Ci pulled Rong Xun out of the crowd, walked toward Seeing Dan Dan and He Zhangbai, and took Seeing Dan Dan into her arms.

Seeing Dan Dan hugged Rong Ci's neck, watched the light show with her, screaming excitedly without stopping, the smile on her face never fading: "Aunt Rong, look!"

Rong Ci smiled: "Mm, Aunt sees it."

There were many people around, the festive atmosphere was very good, and the smile on Rong Ci's face basically never faded either.

He Zhangbai watched the smile on her face, worried that she would get tired from holding her for too long, so he took Seeing Dan Dan back and asked her: "Where is Yunhe? Didn't he come together?"

"He came, he's over there."

Rong Ci pointed to Rong Yunhe and his classmates who hadn't walked far.

Rong Ci was just about to withdraw her gaze, but when she turned her head, she saw Lin Lihai, Sun Yueqing, and Lin Che.

The smile on her face turned cold abruptly.

I don't know what they were saying, but Lin Lihai rubbed Lin Che's hair with full affection; the family of three stood together, all with happy smiles on their faces, and the atmosphere was very warm and loving.

The change in Rong Ci's expression was very obvious.

It was hard for He Zhangbai not to notice.

He followed Rong Ci's gaze just now and also saw the three of them, Lin Lihai and the others.

Before he could withdraw his gaze, Lin Che also saw them.

On such a holiday, seeing an acquaintance outside, Lin Che was very excited, waving at him and shouting: "Brother Zhangbai!"

When he called out like this, Lin Lihai and Sun Yueqing also looked over.

Seeing He Zhangbai, smiles appeared on their faces.

But they also looked at Rong Ci very quickly.

They were stunned, and their smiles faded immediately.

Especially Sun Yueqing.

Seeing Rong Ci and He Zhangbai standing together, she almost immediately knitted her brows.

Since they had bumped into each other, it wouldn't be right not to go over and greet them.

He Zhangbai paused and then said to Rong Ci: "I'll go over and greet them."

Rong Ci said faintly: "Feel free."

He Zhangbai took a few extra looks at her expression before walking away while holding Seeing Dan Dan.

Rong Xun also noticed the change in Rong Ci's expression.

Rong Xun knew that something had probably happened to her aunt, but she had no impression of her former uncle-in-law.

However, seeing the expression on Rong Ci's face that faded instantly, as a girl with a keen sixth sense, she almost immediately guessed the identities of Lin Lihai, Sun Yueqing, and the others.

Her heart tightened, and she held Rong Ci's hand, saying: "Sister, why don't we leave first?"

Rong Ci didn't want to disturb her and Rong Yunhe's mood for celebrating the New Year.

She shook her head and said: "I'm fine."

Her mood turning bad now was, of course, not because she still had feelings for Lin Lihai.

She just... seeing Sun Yueqing and Lin Lihai, couldn't help but think of her mother.

Especially on such a holiday.

Why should they be a happy family of three reunited, while her mother—

Oh, no, it was a family of four.

The reason Lin Wu wasn't there was probably because she went on a date with Feng Tingshen.

Yes, their family of four all had happy and beautiful lives.

They harmed her mother so miserably, yet their lives were getting better and better; it was truly ridiculous.

Rong Xun squeezed Rong Ci's hand and didn't speak.

She actually knew from a young age that their family was different from other families.

For their family, holidays were actually the most painful times.

Because for them, going to the nursing home to see their aunt was painful, and not going was also painful.

Every time they went to the nursing home, the past would clearly reappear in their minds, making people unable to find peace; letting go was painful, and not letting go was also painful.

Originally, the Rong family's life was neither good nor bad, just muddling along.

But it just so happened that that woman's daughter suddenly appeared years later, not only snatching her cousin-in-law away, but now their whole family had moved to Ducheng to add to their troubles—

Noticing that the expressions of Rong Ci and Rong Xun were a bit off, Rong Yunhe said something to his classmates and came back to find them.

He didn't know what had happened and asked: "Sister, what's wrong?"

Before Rong Ci could speak, Rong Xun glanced at Lin Lihai's side and said: "The ones talking to Brother Zhangbai over there are the Lin family."

Rong Yunhe reacted immediately, his thin lips pressed tightly together.

On the other side.

He Zhangbai and Lin Lihai and the others had finished their pleasantries.

When He Zhangbai turned back, he discovered that the figures of Rong Ci and the others were long gone from that spot.
