Chapter 162: Picking her up in his arms

Ren Jifeng told Ji Qingyue about what happened today.

Ji Qingyue replied: "My father and grandfather have a good impression of Seeing Rong Ci and her grandmother; it might be related to that."

Ren Jifeng felt that Ji Huanying was quite attentive and special toward Seeing Rong Ci.

Even if Ji Huanying had a good impression of Seeing Rong Ci, if they had only met once, wouldn't it be a bit far-fetched?

But since Ji Qingyue had said so, Ren Jifeng didn't probe further.

The weather forecast said there would be rain this afternoon, and it might even snow.

Before they had finished eating, Seeing Rong Ci noticed that it had started to rain outside.

After the meal, Ji Huanying and the other government officials had a more in-depth discussion with Seeing Rong Ci and the other corporate representatives regarding each company's production and operation situation last year and their development plans for this year.

After Ji Huanying and the other officials thanked the companies again for their contributions to the economic development of Ducheng, this government-enterprise symposium officially concluded.

After the meeting, Feng Tingshen, Seeing Rong Ci, and the others shook hands with Ji Huanying and the other officials one by one, preparing to leave.

When shaking hands with Ji Huanying, Ji Huanying urged Seeing Rong Ci: "The weather is especially cold today, and I heard there is thin ice on the roads outside. It's slippery, so drive carefully."

Seeing Rong Ci said: "I will, thank you, Secretary Ji."

Seeing Rong Ci, Feng Tingshen, and the other corporate representatives left together, heading toward the parking lot outside.

Feng Tingshen was right beside her: "It's not easy to walk in high heels; you need to be careful in a moment."

Since Feng Tingshen said this in front of so many people, Seeing Rong Ci couldn't not respond, so she had to say: "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Feng, I will be careful."

But in this situation, she suddenly remembered an incident that occurred while attending the technology exhibition last year.

At that time, their group went to a restaurant for a meal, and she accidentally fell; he was so eager to avoid suspicion that he wasn't even willing to help her up.

But now—

When Feng Tingshen said this, his voice was neither loud nor soft.

It just so happened that while saying this, he was also chatting with other entrepreneurs.

His tone was familiar when speaking to Seeing Rong Ci, and since he was the one who took the initiative to speak to her, the several corporate representatives around them, including Ren Jifeng, heard it.

Among the corporate representatives present, besides Ren Jifeng, there were several other entrepreneurs who had dined with them at the technology exhibition before.

Chang Mo had emerged suddenly at the end of last year, to the point that Seeing Rong Ci's popularity in their business circle had also increased significantly.

Now many people thought they knew about her relationship with Yu Moxun.

Of course, many people still had an impression of the technology exhibition dinner last year, where Seeing Rong Ci "deliberately fell" to seduce Feng Tingshen, and Feng Tingshen remained unmoved.

But now...

If Feng Tingshen was only expressing concern for Seeing Rong Ci out of politeness because Xundu and Chang Mo had a partnership, he wouldn't have omitted the title "Ms. Rong" before her name.

His familiar expression of concern sounded quite ambiguous no matter how one listened to it.

So, had Feng Tingshen changed from his previous unswayed state and was truly captivated by Seeing Rong Ci?

Ren Jifeng had not attended the technology exhibition at the time.

He didn't know about Seeing Rong Ci "deliberately seducing" Feng Tingshen.

He only knew that if he had previously thought it was an illusion that Feng Tingshen and Seeing Rong Ci were familiar with each other because he couldn't hear what they were saying, then what he heard now surely couldn't be an illusion, right?

He also felt that Feng Tingshen was attracted to Seeing Rong Ci and had the intention of openly cheating.

Thinking of this, Ren Jifeng looked at Feng Tingshen and Seeing Rong Ci, his face turning cold.

Knowing it would rain today, Seeing Rong Ci had specifically brought an umbrella.

But the cold wind outside was like a knife, scraping against people's cheeks and causing pain.

Although she knew it would rain and snow today, Seeing Rong Ci had originally thought that since it was already February, the snow in Ducheng wouldn't be very heavy, and it should melt quickly upon hitting the ground, so the ground wouldn't be too slippery.

But the ice on the road today was much more severe than she had anticipated.

Stepping out of the main entrance, she felt it was a bit slippery when going down the steps, and fearing she might slip, she walked quite carefully.

People who weren't familiar with Feng Tingshen passed her from the side and left, while Feng Tingshen stood beside her, showing no intention of leaving in a hurry.

Entrepreneurs who were familiar with Feng Tingshen looked at him with teasing eyes.

Ren Jifeng stopped in his tracks, about to speak.

At this moment, Seeing Rong Ci slipped forward, and just as she was about to fall, Feng Tingshen, who was beside her, quickly reached out to wrap his arms around her waist to steady her, and before she could react, he picked her up in his arms.
