Chapter 527: Incoming Call

~4 min read 666 words

In the hearts of the Rong family, Feng Tingshen was now Feng Jingxin's father. Because he had previously helped Rong Yingsheng find a doctor to treat her illness, he could also be considered a benefactor of the Rong family.

Everyone in the Rong family treated him quite politely.

However, because Feng Tingshen was there, the atmosphere at the dinner table was somewhat uncomfortable.

During the meal, Rong Ci rarely spoke, while Feng Jingxin was very happy because Rong Ci had made many things she loved to eat.

As for Feng Tingshen, Rong Ci didn't know he was coming beforehand, but she still used hospitality and temporarily made two dishes he loved to eat.

Feng Tingshen should have noticed. After taking his seat, he looked at Rong Ci and said: "Thank you."

Rong Ci said calmly: "It's only right."

Seeing that Rong Ci didn't want to talk to Feng Tingshen much, Rong Changsheng interrupted and took the initiative to shift the topic.

Feng Tingshen then turned to chat with Rong Changsheng.

A moment later, while Feng Tingshen and Rong Changsheng were chatting intently, Rong Ci's phone rang.

It was an incoming call from Ji Qingyue.

Rong Ci paused. Before she could react, she noticed Feng Tingshen happened to look over.

Rong Ci didn't look at him, stood up with her phone, and said to the others: "I'm going to answer a call."

She held her phone and walked further away before answering: "Hello."

On the other end of the phone, Ji Qingyue's voice was smiling: "Happy New Year."

Rong Ci: "Happy New Year."

Ji Qingyue: "Do you have time later? Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Rong Ci answered Ji Qingyue's call out of the friendship between the two. As for his invitation, she naturally couldn't agree, "I have to accompany my daughter and can't get away, sorry."

It was an expected answer.

Ji Qingyue was silent for a second but didn't mind, smiling: "Okay, I understand."

Then, he asked: "Have you eaten?"

"Eating now."

"Okay, then I won't disturb your meal. I will contact you later."

Rong Ci: "..."

After hanging up the phone, Rong Ci turned and returned to the dining room.

Seeing her return, Feng Tingshen didn't ask who had called and was still chatting with Rong Changsheng.

Feng Jingxin asked curiously: "Mom, who was it?"

Rong Ci sat down beside Feng Tingshen, "A friend of Mom's."

Feng Jingxin: "Oh."

Rong Ci picked up her chopsticks and was just about to continue eating when her phone had a call come in again.

Rong Ci picked up her phone and saw it was Gu Yan.

She paused and had no choice but to stand up and go outside to answer the phone again.

"Happy New Year." After Gu Yan finished speaking, he also asked Rong Ci a question that Ji Qingyue had just asked: "What arrangements do you have tonight? Do you have time to go out and play together?"

Rong Ci: "I have arrangements tonight, sorry."

After the words fell, remembering that Gu Yan's family was all abroad, he was likely spending the New Year alone, so she asked another sentence: "Have you eaten?"

"Ate, ate outside with friends."

"Is that so..."

"How about you?"

"Eating now."

Gu Yan: "Is that so..."

Hearing her ask if he had eaten, Gu Yan heard that she was concerned about him.

He was quite happy. Now that he knew she was having a reunion dinner with her family, he felt it was not good to disturb her, so he said: "Then I won't disturb you having a reunion dinner with your family. Happy New Year."

Rong Ci: "Happy New Year."

After hanging up the phone, when Rong Ci sat back down, Feng Jingxin said: "Mom, you have so many calls."

Rong Ci smiled, picked up a piece of meat for her, and didn't speak.

Feng Tingshen watched and didn't say anything either.

However, at this time, his phone also rang. ===== CHAPTER 528 =====
