Chapter 7

~7 min read 1,390 words

The two colleagues beside Rong Ci looked at Lin Wu while hurriedly retreating two steps, sticking to the wall.

Lin Wu also saw Rong Ci.

But immediately she looked away coldly, clearly not putting her in her eyes, and then entered the elevator surrounded by several managers.

After the elevator door closed, Rong Ci's two colleagues hurriedly breathed a sigh of relief, and then excitedly gossiped again.

"That person just now should be President Feng's girlfriend, right? My god, so pretty, she's wearing famous brands all over, it should be very expensive, right? As expected of being from a wealthy family, confident, calm, and imposing, her temperament really has a wall with us ordinary people!"

"That's right, that's right!"

They said, and asked Rong Ci softly: "Rong Ci, what do you think?"

Rong Ci lowered her eyes and said faintly: "Yes."

Lin Wu was actually the illegitimate daughter of her father.

Calling her an illegitimate daughter might not be quite accurate.

After all, when she was eight years old, her father, in order not to let Lin Wu and her mother suffer, insisted on divorcing her mother and marrying Lin Wu's mother.

After her parents divorced, she lived with her mentally unstable mother and her grandmother and uncle.

Over the years, her uncle's business had gone from bad to worse, while the Lin family's business was booming.

It was said that in order to make up for the grievances Lin Wu suffered during her childhood, her father wanted to give her the best of everything and spent countless money to cultivate her.

And Lin Wu, living up to expectations, was also said to be very excellent.

Therefore, the illegitimate daughter Lin Wu back then was now a legitimate wealthy daughter.

Having been a daughter of a wealthy family for more than ten years, look, now Lin Wu's wealthy daughter temperament was even more sufficient than hers, the real daughter back then.

She originally thought that after childhood, she and Lin Wu would no longer have any intersection.

But God seemed to especially favor Lin Wu.

She and Feng Tingshen were considered childhood sweethearts, but no matter how hard she tried, Feng Tingshen's eyes never saw her, yet he fell in love with Lin Wu completely the first time he saw her—

"Rong Ci, are you okay?"

Seeing Rong Ci's face a little pale, the two colleagues were a little worried.

Rong Ci came back to her senses: "I'm fine."

She and Feng Tingshen would divorce soon, and whoever Feng Tingshen loved would have nothing to do with her in the future.

That day, Rong Ci didn't pay attention to the affairs between Feng Tingshen and Lin Wu again.

She worked overtime until almost nine o'clock, and when she was almost done with her work, her phone rang; it was a call from her best friend, Chu Zilan.

Rong Ci answered, but was told that Chu Zilan had drunk too much and asked her to go to the hotel to pick her up and take her home.

Rong Ci hurriedly finished the documents on hand, took her car keys, and left the company.

20 minutes later, Rong Ci arrived at the destination.

After getting off the car, just as she was about to walk toward the entrance, a little girl walked out of the parking lot on the other side.

Looking at the little girl's clear profile, Rong Ci's footsteps paused.

Miss Xin Xin?

Shouldn't she be in school in Country A? How could she... could it be that she followed Feng Tingshen back to the country?

Her status and position, although she couldn't access some of the company's confidential documents, she also knew that Feng Tingshen's development work in Country A still needed some time to be completely completed.

She thought Feng Tingshen only returned to the country briefly to handle things this time.

She didn't expect her daughter to actually follow him back...

She didn't know when exactly they returned to the country, but judging from the fact that she saw Feng Tingshen this morning, they had been back for at least a day by now.

But her daughter hadn't called her from beginning to end to inform her that they had returned to the country.

Thinking of this, Rong Ci gripped the bag in her hand tightly, looking at the small, happy figure jumping and skipping in front, Rong Ci followed quietly.

When walking to the corner of the lobby, Lin Wu and several of Feng Tingshen's friends appeared at the end of the corridor.

Rong Ci turned sideways to avoid them for the first time, and then heard her daughter call out "Aunt Wuwu!" happily and run toward the front, throwing herself into Lin Wu's arms.

Rong Ci sat down with her back to them on a sofa on the side, using green plants and the back of the chair to block her body.

"Miss Xin Xin, you returned to the country too?"

"Because Aunt Wuwu you returned to the country, and Dad and I couldn't bear to part with you, Dad finished his work early and brought me back to the country! And we returned to the country specifically one day before your birthday, so we wouldn't miss your birthday!"

"This is the necklace Dad and I made for you with our own hands, Aunt Wuwu, happy birthday!"

"Wow, Dad and Miss Xin Xin made this with your own hands? Making this is very painstaking, Miss Xin Xin you are really amazing, Auntie likes it very much, thank you Miss Xin Xin!"

"As long as Aunt Wuwu you like it~"

Feng Jingxin hugged Lin Wu and acted like a spoiled child: "I haven't seen you for a week, Aunt Wuwu, I missed you so much, if it weren't for being able to call you every day, I wouldn't have been able to stay in Country A these past few days..."

"I missed Miss Xin Xin too."

At this time, a burst of footsteps came from the side.

Rong Ci paused.

It was Feng Tingshen.

Even if Rong Ci didn't see the person, just listening to the footsteps basically confirmed this point.

And the reason she dared to be sure was because in the six or seven years after marriage, she basically waited for him every day.

Feng Tingshen's footsteps were like him, unhurried, steady, and composed.

Even when treating the Feng family members who were close to him, he was composed, and it seemed like he was indifferent; even if the sky fell, he wouldn't change his expression.

She once thought that there was no one and nothing in this world that could disturb his mind.

But at this time Lin Wu appeared.

This matter suddenly had an exception—

Thinking of the past, Rong Ci hadn't had time to think carefully, and immediately after, she heard her daughter call out "Dad".

Feng Tingshen's friends also greeted him one after another.

Feng Tingshen responded, and then said to Lin Wu: "Happy birthday."

Lin Wu smiled: "Mm."

"Dad, didn't you prepare other birthday gifts for Aunt Wuwu? Hurry up and give them to Aunt Wuwu!"

The other side suddenly became quiet, and then, one of Feng Tingshen's friends laughed out loud, lowered his head, and pinched Feng Jingxin's cheek: "That's a gift your dad prepared privately for your Aunt Wuwu, it's estimated he will give it to your Aunt Wuwu privately, let's not interfere, haha~"

Others also laughed ambiguously.

At this time, Feng Tingshen said: "Already sent."

"Ah? When?" Feng Jingxin said, and then said: "Dad, you went to see Aunt Wuwu secretly again without taking me, humph!"

Feng Tingshen's friends laughed out loud.

Rong Ci, however, remembered Lin Wu going to the Feng Group this morning.

It was estimated that it was sent at that time.

Lin Wu smiled embarrassedly and said: "Let's not stand here, let's go upstairs quickly."

The footsteps went far away.

Rong Ci, however, had a blank mind.

Her heart was aching densely, and a long time later, she came back to her senses, entered the elevator silently, and went upstairs to help her friend downstairs.

The private room where Chu Zilan and Lin Wu and the others were dining was actually on the same floor.

When Rong Ci was helping Chu Zilan into the elevator, Feng Tingshen's friend Qi Yuming's footsteps paused.
