Chapter 205: What Does He Like About Rong Ci?

At this moment, Lin Wu was stunned, suspecting that her eyes were playing tricks on her.

But Rong Ci holding Dan Dan's hand and the smiling expression on He Zhangbai's face as he turned his head to look at Rong Ci were all so clear.

All of this let her know that her eyes were not playing tricks on her.

And it wasn't a dream either.

Rong Ci was truly with He Zhangbai and Dan Dan.

From the atmosphere of the three of them being together and the fact that Dan Dan was being held by Rong Ci rather than He Zhangbai, it was clear that this wasn't the first time the three of them had come out to eat together.

In an instant, a thought flashed through her mind.

Could it be that Rong Ci was the "Aunt" that Dan Dan had mentioned many times before?

But, how could this be possible?

She felt it was impossible in her heart, yet she couldn't help but recall the scene when He Zhangbai came to Xundu for a meeting last year and took the initiative to find Rong Ci to talk.

And, in the last few banquets, as long as Rong Ci and Yu Moxun were there, whenever He Zhangbai went over to greet them, he would stay with them for a period of time, rather than leaving immediately after greeting them.

Before, she had thought that He Zhangbai taking the initiative to talk to Rong Ci and being amiable toward her was because he didn't want to offend Yu Moxun.

But now...

So, did He Zhangbai truly fall for Rong Ci?

No.

This was impossible.

Lin Wu stood where she was, still unable to believe it.

Rong Ci and He Zhangbai had known each other for so long; if Rong Ci were the type he liked, he would have fallen for her long ago; it was impossible to wait until now.

Furthermore, she didn't think there was anything about Rong Ci that was worth He Zhangbai liking.

Perhaps, she was overthinking it.

Even if Rong Ci was that aunt of Dan Dan's, it didn't mean He Zhangbai truly liked her—

Seeing Lin Wu standing still, Lin Lihai walked over: "Xiao Wu, are you okay?"

Lin Wu came to her senses and shook her head: "I'm fine."

"Let's go in."

"Okay."

The next morning, past eight, He Zhangbai received a call from Rong Ci.

When he arrived at the address she gave him, Rong Ci was already waiting for him at the entrance of the residential complex, carrying the cake and holding the doll.

Seeing him arrive, Rong Ci handed him the cake and the doll.

He Zhangbai took them: "Baking a cake is very time-consuming, but you've already finished it early in the morning. You must have gotten up very early, right?"

Rong Ci had indeed gotten up past four in the morning.

But she said: "I went to bed early last night, so getting up early doesn't matter."

"Thank you." He Zhangbai felt her care for Dan Dan and glanced at the mid-range residential complex behind her, asking: "You live here now?"

He only knew she had moved out of Feng Tingshen's place before.

As for where she moved to, he wasn't clear.

"Mm," Rong Ci added: "I'm in a hurry, so I'll go in first."

He Zhangbai: "Okay."

Rong Ci turned and returned to the complex.

He Zhangbai didn't withdraw his gaze until her back disappeared, then got into the car.

Because Feng Jingxin wanted to celebrate Dan Dan's birthday, Feng Tingshen had someone book a private room at the restaurant in advance.

When Dan Dan returned home from school in the afternoon and saw the cake Rong Ci had made for her by hand and the doll she had bought for her, she was incredibly happy.

When going out to the restaurant, she couldn't bear to let go, insisting on holding the rabbit doll that was about as tall as her.

When He Zhangbai and Dan Dan arrived at the restaurant, Feng Tingshen, Lin Wu, and Feng Jingxin had all already arrived.

He Zhangbai pushed open the door. Lin Wu saw the rabbit doll Dan Dan was holding and immediately recognized it as the one Rong Ci was holding at the mall the day before yesterday.

So, the aunt Dan Dan mentioned before was truly Rong Ci!

Dan Dan was very happy. As soon as she entered the door, she ran over to Feng Jingxin with the doll to share: "Miss Xin Xin, this is the doll toy my aunt gave me. It's very cute and beautiful, right?!"

Feng Jingxin didn't actually dislike pink.

As long as it was beautiful and cute, she actually liked it too.

Hearing Dan Dan showing off to her happily, she nodded and said very supportively: "It is very cute and beautiful."

As she spoke, she gave the gift she had prepared to Dan Dan.

After Dan Dan thanked Feng Jingxin, she couldn't help but say to Feng Jingxin: "My aunt also baked a cake for me by hand, it's blue, especially beautiful!"

After Dan Dan finished speaking, she happily asked He Zhangbai to help her open the cake.

Hearing Dan Dan call her aunt one after another, Qi Yuming raised an eyebrow: "She's baking a cake for Dan Dan and giving gifts; she's truly put in a lot of effort. Zhangbai, what else do you have to say?"

Just because Rong Ci had gotten up so early to bake a cake for Dan Dan to fulfill her promise despite her busy schedule, He Zhangbai had already clearly felt Rong Ci's care for Dan Dan.

Although Feng Tingshen and Feng Jingxin were both present, He Zhangbai still couldn't help but reveal a gentle smile when Qi Yuming mentioned Rong Ci now.

If she wasn't sure yesterday whether He Zhangbai truly liked Rong Ci, then at this moment, seeing the gentle smile He Zhangbai revealed because of Rong Ci, Lin Wu was certain that he truly liked Rong Ci!

No wonder, no wonder during these few months, when she called him, he wouldn't answer immediately like before.

Sometimes he even didn't answer her calls directly.

Before, she thought he was just busy, so it turned out...

But what did he like about Rong Ci?

Lin Wu pursed her lips. She didn't understand, what exactly did Rong Ci have that was worth him liking?

Qi Yuming also immediately reacted to what the meaning behind He Zhangbai's uncontrollable smile was. He cheered and pressed: "Are you finally willing to admit you like her?"

Seeing that smile on He Zhangbai's face, Feng Tingshen also smiled.

The private room was very lively.

A while later, Dan Dan began to make a wish.

After making the wish, He Zhangbai helped Dan Dan cut the cake together.

Feng Jingxin was the first person to get a piece of cake.

She tasted a bite, and her eyes lit up: "So delicious."

Just as delicious as what Mom makes!

Come to think of it, she hadn't seen Mom for a while either.

When it's her birthday, Mom will definitely bake a cake for her too, right?

Qi Yuming didn't like sweets, but after tasting two bites, he couldn't help but say: "The taste is indeed not bad. It seems the other party is quite skillful. Zhangbai, you're in luck."

Upon hearing this, He Zhangbai's smile paused slightly, and he glanced at Feng Tingshen imperceptibly.

Feng Tingshen was also eating cake.

But he was just eating it in small bites and didn't say anything.

Because she knew it was a cake made by Rong Ci, Lin Wu originally didn't want to eat it.

But after thinking about it, she still tasted a bite.

Honestly, the taste was indeed not bad.

Listening to Qi Yuming's praise, she couldn't help but think sarcastically, perhaps He Zhangbai just liked that Rong Ci was enough of a virtuous wife and mother?

When she thought this, she noticed the look He Zhangbai gave Feng Tingshen.

If it were normal times, she wouldn't think much of the look He Zhangbai gave Feng Tingshen.

But at this moment, she understood the look He Zhangbai gave Feng Tingshen.

No matter what, Feng Tingshen and Rong Ci were still a married couple.

So, did He Zhangbai truly feel that being able to have a wife like Rong Ci was a kind of happiness?

Was he both envying Feng Tingshen and looking forward to Feng Tingshen divorcing Rong Ci soon so he could officially go public with Rong Ci?

Thinking of this, Lin Wu suddenly realized that perhaps He Zhangbai liked Rong Ci even more than she had thought.
