Chapter 53

Rong Ci: "..."

She was a bit embarrassed, but not overly uncomfortable; after all, no matter what, they were already husband and wife, and the things that should be done had been done quite a few times years ago.

In the years after marriage, although she had always hoped Feng Tingshen would fall in love with her.

She had never deliberately seduced him.

It wasn't that she hadn't thought about it, but she felt it was useless on him, so she didn't put it into action.

Therefore, the pajamas she usually wore at home were basically loose, lapel-style, ordinary two-piece sets.

And the top she was wearing now happened to be a loose style and quite long; even without pants, it wasn't particularly revealing.

She felt she had no intention of deliberately seducing him.

However, to avoid him misunderstanding, she still explained: "I just forgot to take my pants..."

Rong Ci felt her top was loose and the hem was long, so even without pajama pants, it wasn't revealing.

But she forgot that she had a great figure, with well-proportioned flesh and a curvaceous body; the front-short-back-long style of the top perfectly presented her pair of fair-as-jade, well-proportioned long legs, while the triangle area was also faintly visible...

Plus, she had just showered, her face was fair and tender, and her skin was snow-white and bright, giving people a very clean and pure feeling.

Therefore, this pajama set directly made her look like she was wearing a boyfriend's shirt.

It was even more alluring than wearing sexy pajamas.

Feng Tingshen listened to her words, looked at her twice, withdrew his gaze, and said flatly: "Mm."

Seeing that he didn't misunderstand, Rong Ci breathed a sigh of relief, didn't speak again, turned around, and went to the walk-in closet.

When she was dressed and came out of the walk-in closet, Feng Tingshen was still in the room.

Rong Ci watched, thinking they had nothing to talk about, glanced at him, passed by his side, sat down at the vanity, and started her skincare routine.

Feng Tingshen got up, went to the walk-in closet to get clothes, and went into the bathroom to shower.

It was already late, and after Rong Ci finished her skincare, she went straight to bed.

The last time she shared a bed with Feng Tingshen at the old house, her heart was as still as water, and she fell asleep quickly after lying down.

Maybe it was because Feng Tingshen had agreed to help her just now, her mood was a bit complicated, so much so that she had been lying in bed for a while and still had no sleepiness.

At this time, Feng Tingshen had also finished showering and came out of the bathroom.

A while later, Feng Tingshen turned off the light and lay down on the other side of the bed.

Rong Ci didn't open her eyes, but she could feel a certain distance between them.

Feng Tingshen had no intention of talking to her.

The room was very quiet.

A long time later, Rong Ci's consciousness shifted from clear to blurred, and she fell asleep without knowing it.

The next day.

When Rong Ci woke up, she was the only one left on the bed.

After she washed up and changed clothes to go downstairs, the old lady had also woken up.

Seeing her, the old lady was about to speak when Feng Tingshen returned from outside.

He was wearing a gray tracksuit, his hair was slightly damp with sweat; it looked like he had just finished running.

He glanced at the old lady and greeted: "Morning."

The old lady looked at the two of them, but was not very happy: "You... you two both woke up so early?"

Hearing this, Rong Ci felt a bit strange.

Wasn't it a good thing that she and Feng Tingshen went to bed early and woke up early?

How did it get to the old lady's side, and—

Just as she was thinking this, she heard Feng Tingshen to the side say flatly: "I have studied pharmacology; that soup of yours is useless to me."

After saying this, he turned and went upstairs.

Rong Ci was stunned, and two seconds later, she realized that Feng Tingshen meant that the old lady had drugged the soup they drank last night...

And it was that kind of drug.

But Feng Tingshen understood the drug's power and saw through it; it seemed he hadn't drunk that soup last night.

Rong Ci didn't expect the old lady would actually do this.

She frowned, and before she could speak, the old lady sighed with dissatisfaction: "Sometimes, it's not a good thing for a grandson to know too much. Sigh, I still want another grandson. Xiao Ci, if you have time, try harder with Tingshen, you know?"

Rong Ci: "..."

She didn't know.

Although Feng Tingshen had agreed to help her yesterday, she knew there was no possibility of her and Feng Tingshen continuing to be together.

If she had really happened to do something with Feng Tingshen last night, that would have been truly terrible.

As for having another child, that was even more impossible.

Just as she was thinking this, Feng Jingxin also came downstairs.

Seeing her, thinking of her admiration and love for Lin Wu, her expression dimmed a bit.

During breakfast, Feng Tingshen still consciously sat beside her.

But neither of them took the initiative to communicate.

Yesterday, Rong Ci took Feng Jingxin to school, but today Feng Jingxin asked Feng Tingshen to take her.

Feng Tingshen agreed: "Got it."

The old lady looked at Rong Ci and said: "Then Tingshen, you take Xiao Ci too, anyway, you are in the same—"

Rong Ci interrupted her: "No need, Grandma, he has many social engagements and won't stay at the company often; it's inconvenient for me without a car."

The old lady wouldn't have it and said: "If he has social engagements, let him have them. If you don't have a car to come back after work, just call the driver to pick you up in advance, isn't that fine?"

Without waiting for her to speak, the old lady made the final decision: "It's settled then."

Rong Ci: "..."

She looked at Feng Tingshen.

Feng Tingshen didn't speak.

This actually meant he agreed.

After breakfast, Rong Ci had no choice but to go with Feng Jingxin to sit in Feng Tingshen's car.

Feng Jingxin was familiar with the car when she got in.

Because Rong Ci and Feng Tingshen were taking her together, she was actually very happy today.

But Rong Ci couldn't remember when the last time she sat in Feng Tingshen's car was.

After Feng Jingxin got in, Rong Ci was about to follow, when Feng Tingshen suddenly said: "You sit over there."

Rong Ci's footsteps paused, a bit embarrassed, but she still walked around to the other side and got in when the driver helped open the door.

There was a Feng Jingxin between her and Feng Tingshen.

Feng Tingshen seemed to have something to do, holding his phone and replying to messages.

Rong Ci looked straight ahead, but Feng Jingxin burrowed into Feng Tingshen's arms, poked her head out from his chest, and stared at his phone: "Ah, it's Auntie Wuwu."

Feng Tingshen's gaze was still on the phone, and hearing this, he said "Mm," which counted as an answer to Feng Jingxin's words.

Maybe remembering she was still there, Rong Ci noticed Feng Jingxin secretly glancing at her twice, then continued to stare at Feng Tingshen's phone, but didn't say what Feng Tingshen and Lin Wu were chatting about.

A while later, Feng Jingxin might have felt bored, came out of Feng Tingshen's arms, and opened the car's storage compartment.

Rong Ci really didn't mean to look.

But her peripheral vision happened to catch the things in the storage compartment.

There was lipstick, a small women's handbag, and a small backpack Feng Jingxin had used before—

There was no need to think to know that the lipstick and handbag were Lin Wu's.

Seeing this, she finally understood why Feng Tingshen didn't let her sit on his side when she got in the car just now.

Because that seat was usually sat in by Lin Wu.

He wouldn't allow her to sit there.
