he had become a clown acting for laughs."What a mess!"He spared a moment, glaring at her with intensity. His words were harsh and fierce, but his movements became increasingly gentle. His steps grew...Lin Meng hesitated, it seemed like she was touched. (..tw) To be honest, she had been hurt by Rong Ling and wanted to avoid him, at least she didn't want to see him for now.
Rong Ling still knew her well. At one glance at her state, he coldly reprimanded Lu Youdao. "Her head injury is recent, what good is it to leave the hospital! There are medical personnel everywhere here, and if there's any problem, they can be taken care of immediately. Don't even mention her and Youyou being discharged from the hospital. Once she recovers, she'll naturally be able to leave!"
"But this place isn't safe, I don't feel comfortable. Here's what we'll do: wait for the test results. If everything is okay, then you can go back with your lover."
Lin Meng this time quickly agreed with a "Hmm."
Rong Ling's face darkened even further, but he remained silent. Since she had made this decision, he would respect it.
"Let her rest! She's hurt her head, she needs to rest properly, just leave her alone!"
Ruan Chengyang and Lu Yudao were taken aback. On this side, they didn't confront Rong Ling anymore, but instead persuaded Lin Meng to lie down and rest. Lin Meng couldn't stand so much persuasion and wanted to take the little one to sleep together, but unexpectedly, Rong Ling directly pointed out that he wanted to take the little one out for a while.
"What are you doing!" she frowned.
“Take him for a walk!” His words were veiled.
The little guy got up and whispered in Lin Meng's ear for a while. Lin Meng nodded and let the little guy leave.
The little one followed Rong Ling's leg out of the exclusive ward, and couldn't hide their excitement anymore.
" Godfather, are we going to be detectives now!"
"Hmm."
Rong Ling nodded and, leading the young child, walked around for a while before entering a relatively quiet place. Here, there were no patients or medical staff in sight. The young child tilted his head, looking around curiously. Finally, he was gently pushed by Rong Ling into a room. Inside the room, there were already several people.
"General Rong!" Everyone in the room respectfully shouted towards Rong Ling. Rong Ling nodded, signaling for everyone to quickly get into position. Those people nodded and returned to their respective places.
Rong Ling settled himself in the chair, reaching out to lift the little one and place him on his lap. On the large screen facing him, a picture appeared. The little one’s eyes widened because in the picture was her, along with Mommy, the silver-haired grandfather beside them, and several children.
"To restore what happened before, the most convenient and effective way is to find the surveillance footage," Rong explained slowly to the little guy. "Through surveillance footage, you can basically grasp the general idea of things. Of course, surveillance only shows the picture, to know what the people in the picture said, you need a professional lip reader. With the combined effect of pictures and sound effects, then almost everything can be restored. Of course, to prevent malicious people from faking it, you still need to listen more, think more, and even need to understand the cause and effect, and sometimes you even need to find some relevant witnesses. If all these come up, things seem serious. What you and your mommy just experienced is a small incident, so we don't need to go through all this trouble, we only need surveillance footage and a lip reading expert!"
The little guy listened, and nodded.
Rong Ling explained to the little guy again where the surveillance footage came from, as well as the subordinates responsible for handling it, and the two lip-reading experts they had brought in.
He's teaching the little ones how to handle things!
After finishing his introduction, he gave an order. "Let's begin!"
There, with the slow playback of the surveillance footage, lip reading experts began diligently translating what was said at the time by carefully observing the movements of the figures' lips on screen!
Therefore, all evil will be exposed!
Rong Ling saw how ugly the little girl she had always favored was as she spoke those words that made people frown. She also saw how the young one endured under Bingbing's first move, and how Bingbing, in her smugness, inadvertently revealed the amusement park incident, causing the young one's anger to erupt, as well as Bingbing's panicked eyes for a moment.
He also saw how He Ya had hesitated before, and later how she blocked the little boy and beat him; that pounding action, again and again, made people's hearts skip a beat. (..tw good novels) A child's head is the most fragile, what if it was damaged!
He gently pulled the little one closer.
Then, he saw Lin Meng's anger and outburst, and no matter how angry she was, towards Bingbing, or her subordinates, there was still a merciful restraint -- he only tapped her head a few times, then turned around and just whacked Bingbing's bottom.
When he saw He Ya holding high heels and using the high, hard heels to smash heavily into Lin Meng's head, his pupils shrank, and he immediately tensed up!
That girl, she's too ruthless, too much!
Fury surged through his heart!
Next, the little guy's angry cry and fierce biting seem reasonable. But He Ya holding up high heels to smash the little guy's head, that scene seemed too ferocious. He watched as the heel repeatedly fell on Lin Meng, who was trying hard to protect the little guy, his heart, a little bit clenched, breathing, almost holding it!
The little guy's eyes welled up again, but he was trying very hard not to cry. Because his godfather had said that a man shouldn't cry when he bleeds; he shouldn't be like a little girl who cries easily.
Finally, Rong Ling felt his protectiveness towards Bingbing. Under those circumstances, he thought what he did wasn't excessive, but looking at the surveillance footage now, standing outside the situation, he realized how hurtful his actions were. He didn't even give Lin Meng a chance to speak properly.
For Bingbing, he was eager and doting!
But his eagerness and indulgence brought what! That little girl, who used to look like an angel, could say such lies without batting an eyelid. When he looked at her earnestly, saying word by word that he believed her, that she wouldn't lie to him, the girl showed no remorse whatsoever, still deceiving him. He saw through her pretense, but didn't want to believe it, nor did he want to expose it. But—that's just how things were. His feelings were always right!
In the final frame, Lin Meng's eyes widened as she stared at the blood on her palm, tears of shock welling up. The sight filled him with such pain that he closed his eyes.
Silence speaks volumes!
In the room, an oppressive silence hung in the air for what felt like an eternity. The technicians who had been summoned stared at Rong Ling, his eyes closed, his brow furrowed, and a chillingly grim expression on his face. Everyone held their breath, afraid that even the slightest sound would disturb the beast-like aura emanating from him, as if he were on the verge of erupting!
"All of you, get out!" A low voice, finally spoke, revealing weariness and pain.
Those few people immediately took orders and went out. Outside the door, Rong Ling's loyal subordinates naturally instructed them again on what it meant to "keep their mouths shut"!
Xiao Youyou raised her head, her big eyes looking at Rong Ling's deep gaze. She reached out with her hand, her body twisting slightly, and her tender little palm gently touched Rong Ling's face.
This is soothing, and basically the same pacifying method as his mommy!
Rong Ling extended a large hand and gently covered the little fellow's small hand.
Though the little one felt a bit sorry for his Godfather at this moment, he still felt more sorry for Mommy. So, he frowned and complained in a low voice, "Godfather, you see, it's that aunt and older sister's fault. But you are still protecting that aunt and older sister, you don't care about me and Mommy!"
The little boy pouted, his long eyelashes drooping slightly. The clear blue of his eyes was clouded over with sadness.
Ronger pursed her lips, turned her head slightly, and grasped the little one's hand, gently touching their palm with her lips.
"Youyou, it's your godfather who is sorry. I'm sorry to you and your mommy. Your godfather was wrong!"
The little fellow listened, and his small frame nestled into Rong Ling's embrace.
You have to apologize to Mommy. Not apologizing is bad. And when you do something wrong, you have to apologize!
"I see." Rong Ling replied softly. Staring at the little guy's dark head, Rong Ling frowned and changed his grip from holding to stroking the top of the little guy's head.
"Does it hurt!"
The little boy shook his head immediately, but then he remembered what Mommy had said, to tell the truth. His godfather wasn't a stranger, so he added in a small voice, "A little bit."
Rong Ling felt heartache. Bingbing, who called out in a soft voice, was clearly hurt far less than the little guy. Compared to how she endured now, Bingbing looked even more pitiful!
“When you get out of the hospital, your godfather will take you out to play. Hunting and camping, you'll love it!”
"Really!" The little boy's eyes lit up immediately, and his small hand couldn't help but grip Rong Ling's clothes a little tighter.
"Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back!"
The little boy smiled with his eyes closed.
Rong Ling, holding the little one in his arms, stood up. With one hand, he began to tidy up. This time, no matter what he did, he didn't put the little one down. If he had known that the little one had been beaten so badly, then just now, he would have absolutely not let the little one follow him. He would have definitely carried the little one all the way here. His own son, even though he was cold and ruthless, understood that boys shouldn't be pampered and needed to be treated strictly, but he still wanted to care for him a little!
"Uncle, shouldn't we fight back against that bad aunt and younger sister!" The little kid couldn't hold it in anymore and blurted out.
Rong Ling's eyes flashed, and he sighed softly. "Let's talk about it later!"
When Rong Ling brought the little one back, Lin Meng was already resting. In the hall, sat Ruan Chengyang and Lu Youdao. Seeing Rong Ling return, these two young men didn't give him any good looks!
"Yoyo, come here!" Lu Youdao beckoned.
Rong Ling didn't hesitate, pushing open the bedroom where Lin Meng was. It used to be the little one's room for recuperating. The mother and son had always slept in the same room!
Rong Ling turned around, his icy gaze warningly swept over the two men. That look was murderous and ferocious, revealing a terrifying ruthlessness that made both Lu Youdao and Ruan Chengyang tremble slightly, their legs seemingly unable to move forward.
Rong Ling closed the door and locked it.
Lu Yudao and Ruan Chengyang looked at each other, finally letting out a grunt in unison. However, they only returned to their seats and didn't rush into the room.
In the bedroom, Lin Meng lay on the bed with her eyes closed. Her breathing was faint, barely audible. Rong Ling sat down by the bed and didn't seem to notice any reaction from her.
Rong Ling put the little boy down and helped him take off his coat and pants. The little boy was a little embarrassed, his big eyes darting around not knowing where to look.
"Sleep with your mommy!" Rong Ling lifted the corner of the quilt and pushed the little one into the bed. The little guy lowered his small frame and burrowed towards Lin Meng's side. Lin Meng had to wake up and pull the little one into her arms. In fact, she wasn't asleep either. After going through such an ordeal, her heart ached with pain, she couldn't possibly fall asleep that quickly!
"Mommy!" the little boy called out affectionately to Lin Meng, rolling into her arms. In the end, the mother and son huddled together, just like two small animals snuggling close, both staring at Rong Ling with similar faces. Their equally clean eyes watched him silently.
Rong Ling reached out, passing the little boy and touching the gauze headband on Lin Meng's head. He rubbed it slowly for a while, his face filled with concern.
"I know what happened. You and Youyou, you've been wronged!"
Finally, the truth is out!
Finally, I've been waiting for this!
Lin Meng should have felt a sigh of relief, but her eyes instantly reddened, and tears welled up. The man's soft tone of lament made her feel even more wronged!
“I apologize for not standing by you and Youyou’s side right away! Although, I saw that it was you and Youyou who were pressing on Heya; although I saw that you and Youyou were fine, I felt that Heya was more injured because she was bleeding. Bingbing was also crying in pain, so I thought we should take them to the doctor. Although I thought my decision was right at the time, now I know I was wrong. At that time, I shouldn't have left you and your son behind, nor should I have assumed that you and Youyou were fine, so I didn't need to worry about you. When I saw that you were hit on the head and bleeding, my heart ached!”
This resolute man, rarely able to utter such a word as "pain," completely out of character for him!
Lin Meng listened and burst into tears.
Rongs lips moved, a sigh escaping them.
"I was wrong about this, and I made you and Youyou suffer. If it were anyone else, I could have dealt with them harshly, gotten revenge for you and Youyou, but not them!"
Lin Meng raised her eyes, her bloodshot eyes filled with sorrow.
“It’s not what you think!” Rong Ling gently touched her eyes. “I’m not pursuing it, not because of He Ya, but because of Bingbing. Mengmeng, everyone has a special person in their heart. Those people, even if they do something wrong, we will choose to forgive them emotionally. That was a child, I don't want to argue with a child. So this time, you and Youyou are definitely going to be wronged. But I promise you, this is the last time, next time, whoever dares to hurt you or Youyou, I will absolutely not let him go, even if it’s that child!”
At this, a cruel gleam flashed across his face.
For Bingbing, he is already disappointed!
Lin Meng blinked, tears welling up and streaming down her face. She finally chose to close her eyes!
Rong Ling stood up, turned to the other side of the bed, and leaned down, half-hugging her in his arms. His warm lips lightly swept across her face.
"Don't cry, if you feel wronged, just vent to me!"
She sobbed twice, but cried even harder. What the heck, why did she and YouYou have to endure this injustice! He was her man, he was the child's father! He was so strong, it wasn't like he couldn't handle He Ya and them, what the heck, why did he have to protect them like that!
He frowned, feeling both heartache and embarrassment. He could only lower his stance and coax in a hushed voice. "Don't cry, be good, you're breaking my heart with your tears, be good, don't cry anymore..."
She suddenly opened her eyes, her tear-filled gaze fiercely staring at him.
"I want to go home, I don't want to see you!" she hissed, pushing him away.
He didn't reply, only bowed his head and kissed her deeply and gently.
The little one watched from the side, looking a bit anxious, but unable to join in. He could only stare with wide eyes and furrowed brows.
Lin Meng struggled, thrashing about like a child with a bad temper. Rong Ling patiently held her, showering her face with warm kisses that never stopped. His large hand gently stroked the back of her neck, always mindful not to touch her head, especially the injured area.
"Mommy, don't cry!" The little guy finally joined the ranks of those trying to comfort her.
Under the comfort of these two men, one big and one small, Lin Meng's crying finally subsided, leaving only occasional whimpers.
"I want to go home, I want to be discharged!" She uttered it with the desperation of someone who wouldn't let go of that wish.
"Stay here, I promise no one will ever dare to harm you again!"
"But you're hurting me!" Lin Meng hissed, lashing out and striking Rong Ling's arm in retaliation.
"Let me go, I don't want to stay here, I hate seeing you!"
Rong Ling laughed!
How could this woman be so matter-of-fact and speak so directly!
The little woman in my arms, although her eyes were still red and her nose was still red, and there were still some dampness under her eyes, she had already started to show her teeth and claws. This shows that she has combat power! It means she's not as sad anymore!
Lin Meng was furious, pinching his arm with her fingers. "Laugh! You still have the nerve to laugh!"
Rong Ling continued to laugh. That low, resonant laughter made Lin Meng's ears tremble along with it, and her heart fluttered a bit. She quickly pushed the feeling away.
“I’m serious, I have to get out of here today!”
"Such a stubborn little woman!" he murmured into her ear. "Don't you like me at all! I apologized, didn't you forgive me!"
"If apologies were useful, why would we need the police! Do you think your apology is worth a thousand dollars! Just because you apologize doesn't mean I have to accept it!"
"Little one, this isn't fair! The city gate is on fire, and the innocent fish in the pond are being harmed. I'm just one of those poor fish!"
"But I just can't stand you!"
What should I do to make it look better!
Lin Meng was stunned for a moment, her red lips parted slightly, but she didn't respond.
Rong Ling asked herself, "Should I go and give He Ya and Bingbing a good thrashing! Then, make the old lady of the He family angry, who comes to scold my elders and criticize me for being out of line And then the old lady of the He family can use this as an excuse to target you and Youyou, forcing me to fight her head-on, and then my father and brother can stab me in the back and easily push me off my position! Dream, do you want that!"
Lin Meng's eyes flickered repeatedly before settling into despondency. He was thinking of the greater good, she understood that, but her womanly heart couldn't get past this petty grievance.
She shook her head gently.
"I'm good, I'm getting a bit tired. This is between me and He Ya, you don't need to get involved. And please, don't cause yourself so much trouble because of me! If the He family doesn't make a move, then just forget about it. But I don't want to see He Ya, or that Bingbing. Also, I still want to leave the hospital!"
Rong Ling suddenly grabbed her arm with force.
"You're still blaming me!"
She bit her lip and shook her head.
He stared at her with a heavy gaze. “Don’t you think I’m heartless! Selfish! Not protecting you at all! Don’t you think all I say is just empty words, an asshole!”
"No!"
"You have it, don't deny it!"
Lin Meng's face flushed. Under the man's deep gaze, she felt exposed and vulnerable.
"Okay!" she took a deep breath and said honestly. "I should be, right Rong Ling, I was heartbroken just now because, at that time, you left me behind. Now that you've explained it, it seems reasonable, but I'm still sad and hurt. I know I'm being irrational, in your eyes, I might even seem childish, uneducated, and petty, but I just hoped that at that time, you would stand by my side without any reason, even if it meant taking me, Youyou, and He Ya with you to the hospital. But I pleaded with you so much, and you still didn't care about me. You said you were leaving me behind, so you left me!"
Lin Meng sniffed, her heart aching again.
"I'm hurt, even though everything you said is true. My heart just can't heal overnight!"
rong was rendered speechless by her blunt words.
How can this woman be so adorable!
"Little one, how am I supposed to do this!" He sighed softly, pulling her into a gentle embrace. "Then let me give you time to heal. If you want to be discharged, you can, but only if the doctor says it's okay!"
Lin Meng softly hummed in response.
Later, the doctor indicated that it would be alright for Lin Meng and Youyou to return home for rest. Thus, Lin Meng and the little one leaving the hospital was a sure thing.
"Take good care of your mommy for me, okay!" Rong Ling whispered to the child as he carried him on his back.
The little guy nodded vigorously.
Finally, even the privilege of escorting Lin Meng back was denied to Rong Ling. Watching her return with Ruan Chengyang and the others, his brows furrowed deeply with displeasure!
This time, it can be considered a disaster out of the blue!
It's certain that, in the short term, that little woman won't give him any good fruit to eat!
"He family, you act too arrogantly!" A voice rose up, it was Shi Yu who had come upon hearing the news. He was in charge of medical affairs, and with a new development on Lin Meng's side, he couldn't avoid it!
Rong Ling didn't look back.
Shi Yu looked at the black car that was gradually disappearing into the distance, his eyes also distant.
"Today, there are few who can truly stand up and represent the He family! A hundred-year-old clan like theirs is a prime target. In times like these, one should know to be low-key, avoid attracting attention. But there's that stubborn and oblivious ancestor at home who refuses to budge! The top beam is crooked, so the bottom one must also be warped. The He family—"
Shi Yu let out a cold snicker, his eyes gleaming with malice beneath the transparent lenses.
He vaguely knew that the young lady from the He family was someone Rong Ling paid special attention to; he also knew that the young lady's father had once been a comrade-in-arms with Rong Ling, their relationship quite good. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't want to get involved in the affairs of the He family, let alone show such disdain.
But, as Rong Ling said, everyone has a special someone in their heart!
That existence was offended, and he wasn't willing to endure it!
Rong Ling twisted her brows, but she didn't refute Shi Yu's words at all!
It seems to be the default!ightly taken aback.Rong Qi, seeing the situation, immediately hugged her tightly. He leaned in and kissed her on the face with his lips puckered.Mu Xin Feng shivered and started struggling with renewe...
