Chapter 365

~4 min read 677 words

Rong Ci stopped her steps, said "Hmm," and stood where she was, asking: "Where are Xin Xin and the others?"

Feng Tingshen said: "The rain is too heavy today, and many places outside have been flooded. Although the old mansion's drainage system has always been quite good, if the rain continues like this, the old mansion's drainage system probably won't hold up. Now the butler has sent people to handle this matter. Xin Xin has never seen people piling sandbags, nor has she seen such heavy rain, so she ran out to join the fun."

Hearing him say this, Rong Ci looked out the window and realized that it was a vast expanse of water outside.

To tell the truth, she was seeing such a serious flood in Ducheng for the first time since she grew up.

She frowned, couldn't help but feel worried, and couldn't help but say: "Where is Xin Xin now? The rain is so heavy outside, how can you be at ease with Xin Xin outside—"

Before she finished speaking, Feng Jingxin ran in from outside wearing a small raincoat, soaking wet: "Mom, you're awake?"

Seeing Feng Jingxin was fine, Rong Ci was also relieved.

Seeing that although Feng Jingxin was wearing a raincoat, her hair and clothes were basically wet, the brow she had just relaxed frowned again.

But Feng Jingxin was clearly having a lot of fun. She wanted to pounce into Rong Ci's arms, but remembering she was almost soaked through, she stopped her steps abruptly when she ran to Rong Ci's side.

Seeing Feng Jingxin so happy, the words of reproach reached her lips, but Rong Ci couldn't say them.

Just as she was about to tell Feng Jingxin to go upstairs and change her clothes, Feng Tingshen put down his book, got up, and picked up Feng Jingxin: "Go upstairs and change clothes first."

Feng Jingxin said "Oh," and thinking of something, struggled to get down from his arms: "I want Mom to help me change."

Feng Tingshen raised an eyebrow and glanced at Rong Ci, "Are you sure? Didn't you see your mom is angry?"

Feng Jingxin paused.

She really hadn't noticed.

She looked secretly at Rong Ci, but didn't feel Rong Ci was really angry, and couldn't help but ask: "Mom, are you really angry?"

Rong Ci: "... No."

"Then Mom, help me change clothes?"

Rong Ci turned and sat down downstairs, saying: "Let your dad help you."

Feng Jingxin: "Okay."

Feng Jingxin wasn't disappointed. When she was carried upstairs by Feng Tingshen, she lay on his back and wrinkled her little nose, saying: "Mom isn't angry at all, Dad, you lied to me."

Feng Tingshen: "Dad didn't lie to you. However, your mom isn't angry at you, but angry at Dad."

The volume of their conversation was neither loud nor soft, and Rong Ci happened to be able to hear it.

She paused and ignored it.

Seeing the butler had also returned, Rong Ci asked: "Grandma hasn't woken up yet?"

"Not yet, but she should wake up in a while."

More than ten minutes later, Feng Jingxin and Feng Tingshen came down from upstairs.

At this time, Feng Jingxin had not only changed into clean clothes, but her hair had also been dried.

Feng Jingxin ran down happily and nestled in Rong Ci's arms to chat with her, while Feng Tingshen sat back in his original position, picked up the book, and continued reading.

More than twenty minutes later, the Old Lady also woke up.

Ducheng was not a rainy city, and the Old Lady hadn't seen such heavy rain for a long time, so she was also startled.

With nothing to do, the Old Lady pulled Rong Ci to see the treasures she had found during this period.

She also gave Rong Ci a set of priceless jade and a writing brush.

While they were chatting, Feng Tingshen didn't come to disturb them.

The streets outside were estimated to be half a meter deep in water. That evening, Rong Ci stayed at the old mansion.
