Chapter 182: I won't attend

~4 min read 726 words

That day, Rong Ci stayed at the Yu family to accompany Old Master Yu in drinking tea and playing chess.

Seeing that Feng Jingxin quite wanted to return to the Rong family with her in the evening.

In the afternoon, Rong Ci found a gap and sent a message to Feng Tingshen, asking him to take her back in the evening.

Feng Tingshen did not reply to the message she sent.

She thought Feng Tingshen hadn't seen it.

After dinner, Feng Tingshen himself did not show up, but the car sent to pick up Feng Jingxin arrived at the Yu family old mansion right on time.

After Feng Jingxin got in the car and left, Rong Ci also drove away from the Yu family old mansion.

Next week is Feng Grandma's birthday.

Rong Ci had already decided not to attend.

Rong Grandma thought about it and also felt that it was better for them not to attend.

After making the decision, that evening, Rong Ci and Rong Grandma called Feng Grandma.

When Feng Grandma received Rong Ci's call, she hadn't finished eating.

Her leg had recovered quite a bit, and she could basically walk normally.

She glanced at Feng Tingshen, got up and left the dining room while answering the phone, her tone full of smiles: "Xiao Ci, have you eaten dinner?"

"Yes."

Rong Ci turned on the speakerphone. After she and Rong Grandma exchanged pleasantries with Feng Grandma, she stated her purpose: "Grandma, I'm sorry, on the day of your birthday, Grandma and I might not be able to come in person to celebrate for you."

Feng Grandma had actually already guessed it.

Upon hearing this, although she was a bit disappointed, she could understand.

She smiled and said: "Alright, it's okay, Grandma understands. However, no matter what, Xiao Ci must not become distant from Grandma, you know? Remember to call me, the old lady, more often when you have time. If you encounter any problems and need Grandma's help, just speak up. Grandma will definitely try her best to help if she can. Xiao Ci must not be polite with Grandma, you know?"

Rong Ci said: "I know, thank you Grandma."

After they chatted for a few more sentences, they hung up the phone.

Because Feng Grandma's birthday banquet was coming soon, Sang Qian had also returned to the old mansion since yesterday.

Now Feng Tingyi was also there.

Sang Qian had just asked about the affairs between Feng Tingshen and Rong Ci.

So Feng Tingyi knew that Feng Tingshen and Rong Ci were currently in the stage of handling divorce procedures and hadn't officially divorced yet.

Rong Ci and their grandmother had such a good relationship. Logically speaking, since she and Feng Tingshen hadn't officially divorced yet, and their grandmother was finally holding a birthday banquet after many years, there was no reason for Rong Ci not to come back to attend their grandmother's birthday banquet.

But...

Looking at Feng Grandma's back, Feng Tingyi couldn't help but ask: "Brother, will my sister-in-law come back to attend Grandma's birthday banquet?"

Feng Jingxin had already finished eating and was not in the dining room.

Feng Tingshen was eating slowly and methodically. Upon hearing this, he said: "You can ask Grandma later."

Feng Tingyi paused.

That is to say, he didn't know either?

Or was it that Rong Ci calling Grandma now was just to say this?

If Rong Ci were coming back to attend the birthday banquet, she probably wouldn't have gone to the trouble of specifically calling Grandma.

So...

Feng Tingyi liked Rong Ci quite a bit.

He looked at Feng Tingshen and really wanted to ask him if he really had to divorce Rong Ci.

But regarding Feng Tingshen's affairs, neither Grandma, Father, nor Mother in the family could interfere.

He couldn't ask too much either.

After Feng Grandma finished the call, he asked with concern: "Grandma, what did my sister-in-law say?"

Feng Grandma glanced at Feng Tingshen, who was eating elegantly and had no reaction upon hearing Rong Ci's name, and said: "Your sister-in-law apologized to me, saying she couldn't come in person to celebrate my birthday in a few days."

Seeing Feng Grandma's pointed remark, Feng Tingshen had no reaction, only silently picking up a piece of food for her.

Feng Grandma moved the bowl away, making Feng Tingshen's chopsticks miss.
