rned to Lin Meng. "Lin Meng, the martial world is treacherous, it seems there's no place for me here anymore. I have to go abroad to take refuge and avoid the danger. Let's part ways here. Green hill..."Rong Ling~"
Lin Meng reacted quickly, her face flushed slightly, but she still clung to Rong Ling's arm dependently, the corners of her mouth twitching upwards uncontrollably, revealing a sweet smile. .tw[]
The little boy hadn't figured out what was going on yet, but seeing his mother and uncle entangled together, he immediately felt left out and moved over. He tugged at Lin Meng's pants with his little hand.
"Mommy!"
The little boy called out, meaning for the two adults not to ignore his presence.
Lin Meng's face flushed even more, and she immediately reached out to grab the little guy.
The little one was satisfied now.
Thus, the situation changed in an instant, with Lin Meng being sandwiched between the two men, big and small. It seemed as if she was being protected. He Ya saw this and her anger grew even more intense.
"Big Brother Rong!" she called out, her voice bright and cheerful, as if she were overjoyed to see him, as if her previous displeasure didn't exist at all.
She strode away, not treating herself as an outsider at all. Her hands naturally wrapped around Rong Ling's other arm, and half her body leaned against him. She didn't give Rong Ling a chance to speak, speaking rapidly like pouring beans out of a bag.
"I didn't expect to see you here! If I had known you were so free today, I would have asked you to take me out to play. I asked you to take me out a few days ago, but you said you were too busy!" She wrinkled her nose and pouted, showing her displeasure.
"Brother Rong, this time you've been caught! Today, no matter what you say, I won't let you go!"
At nearly 27 years old, she still acts like such a little girl. It has to be said that He Ya is truly skilled.
Lin Meng frowned visibly.
He Ya's two female friends stood motionless, a meter away, their eyes glued to the scene with great interest. They were eager to witness what was about to unfold, knowing it could be gossip of shocking proportions.
This seemed like the moment everything was about to explode, Rong Ling didn't move, Lin Meng didn't move, but the little guy moved first!
"Auntie, today belongs to Mommy and me! You can't fight with Mommy and me for Uncle."
Children's words are sometimes straightforward, and because of that, they can easily expose all the ugliness.
He Ya's face stiffened. She had anticipated Rong Ling and Lin Meng opening their mouths, either one would give her a way to respond. But she hadn't expected that little radish head, just like four years ago, when she had meticulously planned everything but overlooked the arrival of this little imp.
He Ya restrained the fleeting awkwardness and embarrassment, still smiling back.
"Kids, you shouldn't speak like that!"
He pretended to be very kind, but the little guy was acting tough. He turned his face away, snorted, and arrogantly expressed his disdain for her. Then he said in a childish voice to Rong Ling, "Uncle, Youyou is tired and her legs hurt!"
The little guy pitifully raised his short arms, reaching out to Rong Ling as if asking for help. He spread his tiny arms wide, signaling for Rong Ling to hug him. But in reality, the little fellow was always full of energy, loved to play and cause mischief, rarely saying he was tired. Even when he was tired, he was too ashamed to say it in front of others, only enduring it himself. They had just gotten off the car and taken the elevator up, how could they be tired!
The little guy simply couldn't stand how close He Ya was to Rong Ling, taking up his arm so intimately. That's why he did this. His goal is to get rid of all the strange aunts around his uncle!
Uncle is mommy's!
Uncle's is his too!
The little one yelled in his heart, but still looked at Rong Ling with pure, obsidian eyes like a puppy.
Rong Ling's attitude towards the little guy has always been rather strict, but at this moment, he easily withdrew his arm from He Ya's embrace and, following the little guy's wish, scooped him up in his arms.
He is a perfect example of a doting father!
The little guy chuckled inwardly, immediately turning into an octopus, his hands and feet winding around Rong Ling. Then he turned his head and, in a flash, made a silly face at He Ya whose expression was slightly stiff.
You little rascal!
He Ya annoyedly couldn't help but bite her lip! She could no longer tell that this little devil was on purpose, then these twenty years of hers would have been lived in vain!
That little devil! I'm so mad at her!
She muttered curses under her breath, but as an adult, she couldn't possibly stoop to arguing with a child. To do so would only make her seem petty and invite ridicule.
After a moment's thought, she swiftly retorted.
"Brother Rong, since Youyou is tired, why don't we find a place to sit down and rest for a bit It's such a coincidence that we met you today. Let's go together and have some pastries or something. Children get hungry the fastest!"
"I'm not hungry at all!" The little guy immediately snorted coldly.
"Youyou!" Lin Meng shouted.
The little guy knew his behavior was a bit impolite, so he quickly grabbed the opportunity and added another sentence. "Also, only certain people can call me Yoyo, Auntie. You can just call me Lin Chengyu!"
"Youyou!" Lin Meng's voice dropped, revealing her displeasure. "That's not polite at all!"
The little guy stuck out his tongue and quickly shrank his head, burying it in Rong Ling's shoulder. Anyway, he had his uncle as his umbrella!
He Yaqi was about to have an internal injury. She had lost to Lin Meng first, and now she was being ridiculed by this little brat. It's simply unbearable!
"You, this child..." She forced a smile, her attitude revealing a tinge of exasperated fondness. But she stopped halfway through the sentence, leaving it hanging and perfectly conveying her disapproval of the young one's behavior!
For children of noble families, outward etiquette is very important. You can be nasty and dirty in private, but on the surface, you have to put on a facade of being a proper young lady or gentleman!
He Yapo looked at Lin Meng with a profound gaze. That slightly dismissive look was accusing Lin Meng, as a mother, of failing to teach properly!
This child must have stayed in America for a long time. That country advocates equality and freedom, but after all, we are all descendants of Yanhuang. We should not forget some basic etiquette passed down from our ancestors!
That's a bit harsh!
Lin Meng smiled faintly and skillfully replied, "Looking at the way you're saying it, Youyou is just a child. Boys are naturally mischievous, it's unavoidable. Besides, to be honest, Youyou really isn't hungry. You can't force someone to eat when they clearly aren't." Furthermore, people have different levels of intimacy. Youyou said not everyone can call him Youyou. Just like I can only call you Ms. He, while your close friends and family can call you something else, such as 'little sister'. So, Ms. He, don't worry too much. This child is basically loved by everyone!"
She is no longer the Lin Meng of four years ago, someone who could be easily intimidated by He Ya's words! Thirty years east, thirty years west; there will always be a time when fortunes change. If He Ya thinks she's easy to manipulate, then she's sorely mistaken!
Lin Meng's words were like an invisible, gentle slap to He Ya! He Ya's face immediately lost its composure! The meaning that the other party was not welcoming her was clear to everyone. Could she continue to pester them If she went on like this, wouldn't she become a laughingstock
He Yahu slowly let out a breath, then took another one in, and smiled softly. One couldn't help but praise her good upbringing; she was able to control her temper appropriately even when furious!
“I overstepped, didn’t I” she said softly with a smile, like an actress. “Suddenly meeting you both, I was too happy and wanted to include you, but it seems rather rude now! Rong Ge, since you've already promised Mrs. Ruan, spend some time with her properly. She's new here, probably hasn’t explored much of this place yet! I had good intentions of showing Mrs. Ruan around, but well...well…since Mrs. Ruan has said so much, I won’t spoil your fun, hehe, but...”
She shifted the topic, looking at Rong Ling playfully with spring in her eyes.
"Big Brother, you promised to take me for a joyride. So, you definitely have to make time for it this week!"
Róng Líng slightly pursed her lips.
Lin Meng closely followed with a furrowed brow!
He Ya immediately beckoned her two female friends to leave. She was sure Rong Ling wouldn't publicly reject her like this and not give her face, after all, regardless of everything else, she was still his sister who he watched grow up!
Believe it or not, her repeated calls of “Mrs. Ruan” already made it clear who Lin Meng was. Emphasizing "newcomer" and "not familiar with the place" also made it clear that there was nothing special about Rong Ling and Lin Meng walking together today. Compared to them walking in broad daylight, she received a promise from Rong Ling, one that could be imagined endlessly and stretched into the night!
He Ya's words were both smooth and tactful. She managed to criticize Lin Meng while elevating herself, allowing her to quickly escape the awkward situation. She grabbed her female friend and left, preventing any appearance of defeat!
No matter what, she was still the victor! He Ya straightened her chest, finally feeling a little proud.
"Hey!" Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind, it was Rong Ling who hadn't spoken much.
He Ya was stunned and had to stop in her tracks.
On the day of the race, Yu Xu was also coming. Remember not to leave him behind. If you neglect him, that kid would fight me to the death!
Using Yu Xu as a shield can easily dispel any potential ambiguity!
He Ya's attack was so easily dismantled by Rong Ling!
He Ya clenched her fist tightly, a dull ache in her heart. She never expected Rong Ling to do this!
This shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this! How could Big Brother protect that woman so much It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this...
There, Rong Ling held the little one in one hand and pulled Lin Meng with the other, strolling away leisurely!
This is the ruthlessness of this man, the ultimate skill of this man, the coldness of this man, the mercilessness of this man!
It's not that he truly cares, it's hard to soften him up, hard to make him cherish!
He could indulge He Ya as if she were a spoiled half-sister, but this premise held true only if she didn't touch people he cared about!
For example, his son!
For example, his woman!happened. Last night, as the evening headline news, it was already broadcast on local television, causing a stir and achieving record-breaking viewership ratings. Even with repeated broadcasts by the...
