the person holding the gun, they must have killed before. Even the person who had been silent since the beginning had changed, their entire demeanor shifted, no longer masking the faint, blood-tinged...He was too exhausted. Ever since he fell into the sea, he hadn't been able to relax for a moment. [..tw超多好看小說] On the deserted island, he often suffered from food shortages, with meals coming and going inconsistently, which only intensified his fatigue. Throughout this journey, with eight or nine hours of flight time and the previous ordeal on the island for freshwater and food, he had barely closed his eyes for a whole day.

Yu Xu was right, Lin Meng truly was his cure. Having her by his side was better than any medicine, better than anything good. He fell asleep not because of the anesthetic, but because he felt at peace.

He slept so soundly that even when he was pushed out of the operating room, he didn't wake up. All he did was keep holding onto her hand with his large palm. He had her in his hand! And that was enough to comfort him.

When they reached the VIP ward, he frowned slightly as he was lifted onto the bed. But she softly said to him, “Sleep, I’m here,” and his frown eased away. He fell back into a peaceful slumber. She kicked off her shoes, climbed onto the bed, nestled beside him, propping herself up with one hand. She just stared at him, lost in thought. Her heart was filled with contentment, as sweet as honey. Looking at him, she never got tired of it, she could never look enough. Sometimes, watching him, she would smile, and then couldn’t help but lean over and kiss him.

The two little ones giggled like mice. Then, they also foolishly stared at Rong Ling.

This family actually amused Shi Yu and the others. The original sadness was immediately diluted a lot. Even Rong's mother, who had been crying her eyes out just a moment ago, now had a clean face with a smile.

She and Rong Ling had always been apart, so they were already accustomed to separation. It's just that this time Rong Ling was so dangerous. Mother and son were connected by heart. Mrs. Rong couldn't bear it and fainted. As soon as she heard that Rong Ling was back, Mrs. Rong immediately perked up, even her lingering illness improved by half. Now, after learning from the doctor that her son was fine, just tired and needed to rest well, she didn't know how many times she had muttered Amitabha Buddha in her heart. With no more worries, the true nature of this big fool, Ma Daha, became somewhat apparent.

"Oh, I didn't realize it was so late. I'm starting to get hungry!"

She covered her stomach and frowned. At her age, this kind of behavior wouldn't usually be fitting, but Rong Mama was open-minded, plus she had such a carefree personality, so this person just seemed young, acting like this didn't seem childish at all, it was rather cute.

Fengwu's originally heavy heart felt a little lighter upon hearing this. He looked at Rong Mama with a hint of tenderness in his gaze. Indeed, from the very beginning, he and Xiaozhu had always been relaxed together. She didn't care about his background or show any interest in it; she only cared about him as a person and wanted to be happy with him. If only...

His heart skipped a beat, then he immediately chuckled wryly. What was there left of what it used to be!

He had already married Du Caiyi and had both sons and daughters. Their encounter was too late. But if they had met earlier, he wouldn't know if the ending would have been any different!

He is not Rong Ling, and he is not as good as Rong Ling!

Rong Ling perseveres, Rong Ling dares, Rong Ling is also unrestrained. When he has a goal, he resolutely pursues it and can decisively give up everything. This son is good, better than himself by far. And his son also taught another good son. Look at Xiao Youyou, though young, he is so sensible, clever, and smart. All these days, everyone who has come into contact with Xiao Youyou has a heartfelt love for him. Rong Qifeng, Rong Qiru and the others even privately said to him that they should cultivate Xiao Youyou well. When he grows up, he will be another outstanding head of the family. As long as there is Rong Ling and Xiao Youyou, the stability and prosperity of Ya Dong over the past hundred years will be absolutely guaranteed.

Yes, as long as there's this father and son, what else could Ya-Dong worry about!

He originally favored Dudou, his beloved youngest grandson. But looking at it, Dudou is not as good as Xiaoyou. Dudou is eight years old this year, but Xiaoyou is only five. They are three years apart, but he thinks that what Dudou knows may not be as much as Xiaoyou. For example, Dudou can't play with guns and can't be as calm and composed in front of the old veteran to beg for and play with guns!

This child, he is too outstanding, so outstanding that he has to face him and love him. But in his heart, he understands that his heart is still biased, biased towards Dodo. It's not because Dodo grew up beside him since childhood, nor because Dodo was raised by him. It's because Dodo has no father, no mother. The only one he can rely on is his grandfather. As for the increasingly eccentric grandmother, she is unreliable. And that young brother Dada, after being stimulated, has become even more childish. That child, I'm afraid will drag him down in the future. What about Dodo's future After he dies, who else can he rely on! The uncles from his mother's family are too distant, and they can't rely on them for a long time! So, he dotes on him!

Well, he's just being too indulgent, what good is that! Yoyo doesn't care about it anyway, she doesn't even bother with this kind of favoritism. And he, well, he's already weak and old, his heart has plenty of desire but his strength isn't there anymore. He can't hold up a vast expanse for himself any longer. So, it really is useless, just old!

The eldest son, Rong Qikeng, was a bit disappointing. But that's how it goes. It was a heavy blow for him. That's just the way things are in this world. Even if a child is useless or infuriating, parents sending their child off on their final journey at a time when they themselves have turned gray is hard to bear.

Overnight, he turned half-white. Because, he was desperate, thinking that both his sons were gone. In the end, Rong Ling's return ignited hope in him, but his heart, truly calmed down, probably— some hearts are like still water now!

So, even though he was still hurting from the loss of his eldest son, he took up Mom Rong's words.

"What would you like to eat I'll prepare it for you!"

He wasn't being clingy or harassing her, he was just doing his best to protect her!

Mother was stunned into silence.

Rong Fei Wu, many times, was just Rong Ma's burden. Her recklessness, a lot of the time, would become restrained in front of him.

Hong Fei added casually, "Meng Meng, You You, Hao Hao, and Shi Yu, Yu Xu, you all tell me what you want to eat, and I'll have someone prepare it!"

Shi Yu laughed, restoring his usual demeanor of being gentle and polite yet possessing a strong aura of control.

"Uncle, leave this to me. Twin Woods Hospital is my base camp. Once you're here, your food and lodging are all on me!"

Feng Fei, upon hearing this, did not insist any further.

Stone Feather went out to have someone prepare the meal. In such a big house, special care was needed for Lin Meng's mother and son, as well as Rong Mama who was still slightly ill. Stone Feather had been living at Lin Meng's house these past few days, so he knew the dietary needs of all four people very well. He didn't need to ask specifically; he just knew what to order in his heart.

Rong Feiwu sat beside his mother, taking the opportunity to inquire about her condition. After Du Caiyi's son passed away, she seemed to have gone through a full-blown menopause, and it was endlessly prolonged. She became irritable and quick to anger, often uttering inappropriate sarcastic remarks directed at Rong Feiwu. Her insinuations were that he still cared for his mother's family and was wary of both her and Rong Feiwu, guarding against them as if they were thieves. Even mentioning Rong Ling made her go to his mother, stirring up trouble.Sometimes, she would inexplicably snatch his phone and check his messages. He had a sense of what was going on, so he became even less inclined to call his mother. After all, the family was already chaotic enough; he didn't want to make things worse. Until now, sitting here, he finally had the chance to ask her directly about it.

Mom Rong's answers were very brief, "Hmm," "Uh," "Oh," still with a restrained air. Rong Feiwu spoke more than she did, saying five sentences for every one of hers. Rong Feiwu watched, feeling a pang in his heart, so he instinctively stopped talking. Mom Rong subtly shifted her position, moving her bottom slightly to the side and engaging in conversation with Miao Qing, who was sitting beside her. Looking at this, the conversation immediately became livelier.

Such a comparison should make Rong Fei Wu feel even more depressed and sad, but for some reason, he smiled.

A long-awaited sense of ease, and he felt it too!

This woman, in fact, has never changed.

Finally, he also found something that didn't change around him, so he felt relieved!

One ending doesn't mean all endings. Open your eyes, don't stare at that one spot, look at others, there should still be other harvests and new beginnings!

Then Mother Rong quietly rubbed her butt against him again, keeping a greater distance from Flying Warrior.

On that end, the two children who had been lost in their vacant stares, affected by the approaching meal, rubbed their bellies and came to their senses. Finally, they had the energy to pay attention to other things.

"Mommy, Daddy's beard is so long—"

Xiaoyou's drawn-out voice also called back Lin Meng's lost focus. She gazed intently at Rong Ling.

"Hmm" she asked softly.

Xiao Youyou pointed her finger at Rong Ling's beard, her big eyes shining with eagerness.

"Mommy, can YouYou shave Daddy's beard for him"

Lin Meng looked, and once again she felt dazed. This man, who always kept himself clean and tidy, clearly had habits picked up from the military. His beard was usually shaved every day, so his face was always clean-shaven. This time, however, his beard hadn't been trimmed in a while, growing to its longest length since she had met him.

It's all because of being stranded on a deserted island!

Ai, her heart ached again!

"Okay!" she replied.

She used to enjoy shaving for him too. After such a long separation, with his difficult return, she was happy to take care of everything for him. But this was the little one's desire, and she couldn't bear to take it away from him.

The little boy's eyes lit up, and he turned to dash towards one side. There, laid out were Rong Ling's clothes. These clothes weren't the ones Rong Ling had been wearing when he first fell into the sea; Yu Xu had given him new ones after rescuing him. However, that set of tools had stayed with him all along, moving from the pocket of his old trousers to the pocket of his new ones. The little boy had been moved when he heard Rong Ling mention this set of tools in the operating room!

Rong Ling's son, from birth, was drawn to such things. When Rong Ling returned, the little one felt at ease, and his thoughts came alive. He was both intensely curious about that set of tools and determined to possess them.

He found the set of tools very quickly. The tool kit was only about the size of a woman's hand, like a wallet, and when it was opened, it looked like two women's hands clasped together. On top were rows of delicate tools, gleaming silver, lying quietly there.

Although silent, no one could ignore the chilling murderous aura emanating from the silver!

"Wow!" It was Xiaohuao, who was usually quiet and rarely spoke, letting out a childish exclamation. This kid was a big fan of miniature weapons, and seeing something like this would get him excited.

With wide eyes, Little Hao immediately looked at it greedily.

Lin Meng was also curious and followed over to take a look. She felt a fondness for such a set of tools. Inside the leather case, there were a large knife, a small knife, a can opener, a awl, a drill bit, tweezers, toothpicks, scissors, a fish scaler, a file, a hacksaw, pliers, thumbtacks, sewing needles, and some smaller tools whose names she couldn't remember. Looking at them, they were very powerful and made her wish she had a set too.

Xiaoyouyou had taken a good look at each one, and had secretly pondered their uses before taking out his small knife. He tested the sharpness of the blade with his finger in an old-fashioned way, then turned to Mengmeng and started to flatter her.

"Mommy, I'll just use this one, okay"

"Actually, Mom's eyebrow trimmer is more suitable for this." Lin Meng deliberately made things difficult for him, it was also a test.

The little boy immediately said in a boastful tone, "A man shouldn't use an eyebrow razor! Mommy, believe me, I'll be careful and won't damage Daddy's!"

Lin Meng only then nodded.

"Be careful!"

Her previous distress was merely to remind the little one about the dangers of this knife. It's not easy for a little one to handle a knife and control it! The fact that the little one admitted it himself shows that he has considered this point. Children need to be given opportunities to try, especially when they want to show their intentions.

So, the little one who was allowed to help, started bustling about getting ready. Little Haohao saw this and pitched in too. They needed to prepare water, washing solution, basins, and newspapers, etc.

Two little ones run around, bustling and busy, with joyful smiles, making the atmosphere peaceful and pleasant. It's as if those past wounds are fading away further and further. It seems like everything is finally starting to get back on track!

When it came time to start shaving, Rong Ling furrowed his brow slightly. The strength of this man lay in the fact that instinct sometimes overruled intellect. Lin Meng immediately whispered softly, "It's me, oh, nothing. Just sleep, it's fine..."

His body relaxed again!

The little boy licked his lips, narrowed his eyes, and slowly, carefully scraped it up. All the adults in the house were watching with interest. Xiao Hao looked on, his eyes were truly greedy, he couldn't help but softly plead when Xiao Youyou had almost finished scraping.

"Brother, can you let Haohuo take a turn too, please"

Xiao Youyou was a little reluctant, but he was her brother after all. He should be generous and have a broad mind. So, after hesitating for a moment, she let go. Xiao Haohuo happily took over.

Yu Xu was teasing him from the side. "Youyou, come here, Fourth Uncle has some stubble here, you can shave it for me!"

In order to find Rong Ling, he neglected himself and was often too preoccupied with his search. He would just quickly wipe his face when he woke up and then immediately plunge back into his search. As a result, he now looked a little disheveled.

Xiaoyou immediately let out a haughty hum and turned her head away.

It's not like anyone has the right to let him do that!

This kid!

Yu Xu muttered to himself in his heart, walked forward, and rubbed Xiao Youyou hard. "Fourth Uncle has worked hard, but he's treated like this It's really too much, it's a shame that Fourth Uncle has been so good to you!"

Xiaoyou took the already scraped knife from Xiaohuo's hand and passed it over, with a concession after being persuaded.

"Okay, here's the knife. Use it!"

Yaofeiqian chuckled, with an air of absolute nonchalance. Chen Zhi, who seemed more comfortable interacting with electronics, smiled faintly, with a hint of restraint. Xiaokuo merely smirked and twitched the corner of his lips, also smiling. The few women burst into laughter.

Yu Xu sighed with disappointment.

What a heartless person!

The little boy immediately took the knife back. Yu Xu saw this and immediately apologized.

"Row row row, lend me your knife, lend me your knife!"

The little guy retracted his hand and simultaneously tucked it behind his back. With the increasingly cold expression he had been practicing these past days, he looked at Yu Xu and said: "Take back what you just said!"

Yu Xu's face turned into an "awkward" expression!

This kid, after not seeing him for a while, how did he become like this.

"Youyou, it's me, Si Shu. It seems like it's been a while since we last saw each other, and you haven't been as close to Si Shu anymore. Si Shu is the best to you, you know Think back, Si Shu often played with you and bought you food and toys..."

Everyone watched as the tall and strong Yu Xu bent down there, playing the emotional card with the little guy. The way he coaxed him was almost servile.

It's been a while since I've seen Yu Xu act so quirky!

Now, seeing this scene again, it really feels like everything has returned to normal, like it's all over!

Everyone laughed with relief and watched with interest.

Just then, Yu Xu spoke at length, but the little guy remained cool. With a single sentence, he shut Yu Xu down.

"This blade, it's been with father through thick and thin!"

That is to say, it is very significant. He gave it, but he values Fourth Uncle very much. So, Fourth Uncle cannot say that he has no conscience!

Yu Xu immediately understood and nodded, bowing his head and quickly making a bow.

"Fourth Uncle was wrong, Fourth Uncle was wrong. Youyou is the best, she knows how much to care for Fourth Uncle the most, she's the best to Fourth Uncle..."

It was rather amusing to see such a valiant man acting so fiercely towards a little boy. Everyone laughed even harder, but they kept it somewhat restrained out of consideration for Rong Ling.

The little boy handed the knife over, and Yu Xu took it with a cackling laugh.

This little interlude could only serve to relax everyone's tense hearts.

Yu Xu has also not been easy, worked so many days, and still came to find opportunities to amuse everyone. Xiao Qu understood very well in his heart, so after they had a meal together, he sent Yu Xu to rest. Then their brothers stayed behind, responsible for entertaining the people who came to visit Rong Ling!

Many people came rushing in upon hearing the news because this was an opportunity, a chance to show favor to the Rong family. The Rong family fully had the capability to resolve their own crisis without relying on outsiders. Therefore, those who now wished to get closer to the Rong family had no real chance. They didn't expect the Rong family to help them; instead, at the very least, they hoped not to become enemies of the Rong family and ultimately maintain a harmonious relationship. If there was an opportunity, they might even be able to do business with each other. Because the Rong family had fought so beautifully in this round after round, many people realized that the Rong family was still the Rong family—hundreds of years of family foundation were not something others could compare to. It's better to make friends than enemies!

So, even though Rong Ling is away from Kyoto right now, many people in the city traveled a long distance overnight to visit him. Rong Ling was sound asleep and they didn't mind not seeing him, because many of them didn't know how to approach him anyway. The gifts were delivered, which was their intention. Not having to face him actually made it more relaxed!

May the future be long!

The stream of travelers never stopped, even past two in the morning. Looking at it, there was no sign of stopping. Shi Yu saw that this wasn't going to end anytime soon, so he immediately let Lin Meng and the two young ones go to rest. He also stopped letting guests peek through the crack in the door at Rong Ling. After all, Lin Meng was bound to sleep with Rong Ling, and the two little ones certainly wouldn't leave their parents.

Because of this arrangement, the ward fell silent all at once. The two little ones reluctantly looked at Rong Ling for a while before cuddling up together and falling asleep. Lin Meng then began to secretly kiss him.

In this quiet night, the tenderness in her heart began to overflow, and it was unstoppable.

He's back, and that's great!

Earlier, everyone had gathered around her, and she was happy with them. Now, there was only her awake in the room, it was just her business now. Her emotions were settled, but not tranquil; they rippled ceaselessly. Looking at the face before her, restored to its handsome, powerfully masculine form, she felt a slight intoxication, sweet and ethereal. So, she couldn't help but giggle, and within that laughter, she kissed him.

...tolerance... tolerance...

Calling out this name in my heart is also sweet.

That kind of joy was like little bubbles, gurgling and bubbling non-stop from the bottom of my heart.

Hee hee, why are you so happy, happier than getting anything! How could you be so satisfied, satisfied as if you had gotten the whole world!

How silly!

She murmured softly in her heart, but a smile spread across her face, her eyes twinkling like crescents. Then, she lowered her head and kissed him. The kiss was tingling, landing lightly on his lips. It was soft, melting her heart just as it did. This unintentional touch felt like a door opening inside her, a door that couldn't be closed after tasting forbidden fruit.

Then, kisses that were itchy and sweet enough to melt one’s heart, landed one after another. She acted just like a playful child, tirelessly playing this game. And just like a determined princess, she vowed to awaken the cursed prince from his slumber with her kiss!

The prince woke up. In the darkness, the moment his eyes opened, two gleams as bright as a leopard's eyes shone forth, hiding the predatory beast within. Unlike in fairy tales where a prince awakens a princess with a kiss and they immediately step into the marriage hall, this was far from simple!

This is the Demon Prince, a dark attribute prince! If you don't continue, it won't be him anymore!

So, when her lips brushed against his again like playful little fairies, teasingly touching him before slowly moving away, he simply raised his head, his hot lips pressing against hers, then aggressively guiding her to lower her head and dance with him. One hand possessed a desire for control, reaching out to grasp the back of her head, making it easier for their kiss to deepen. The other hand, as if by instinct, went to caress her waist.

This soft little waist, how many days has he not touched it!

Dark eyes flickered with desire!

The man had always been intensely attracted to her, wanting her every day and feeling it was never enough. Now that they were apart for so long, his desire intensified even further! And men's bodies are naturally predisposed to recover quickly. With a bit of care and attention, he would be back to normal in no time. The longing and craving, coupled with the silence of the night and the woman’s tender kisses stealing upon him again and again, finally reached a boiling point and exploded into a torrent of passion.

I miss her, I miss her soft body. I want to bury myself in her warmth!

He thought, he wanted to so badly! But just the thought of it sent his body into a boil, throbbing with a need for satisfaction. So the kiss became more intense, more greedy. He was strong, almost as if he wanted to swallow her tongue whole, or bite down on her little mouth. She was weak from the torment of these past days. He looked like someone who had just undergone surgery, frail and vulnerable. But compared to her own weakened state, he was still powerful, still able to easily take control. She went limp with sweat, a low moan escaping her lips.

"...Don't..."

The word barely escaped her lips before he tightened his grip, kissing her more fiercely. His hand, wild and uncontrolled, slid over her hips, squeezing them roughly a few times, then moved towards her chest.

She had always been careful to not overwhelm him, paying attention to his every move. She felt everything he did. As he reached for her chest, and his intense movements hinted at a familiar surge of desire, she reacted instantly. With a sudden push, she threw herself upright, panting breathlessly as she struggled to refuse him.

"No, thank you!"

The familiar, sweet-sounding coquettishness was also a huge stimulus for him, who hadn't experienced it in a long time. His body grew even hotter, his eyes shone brighter than ever, like he had just caught prey he had been longing for!

"...Little one..." he choked out her name, gesturing for her to look down.

She shifted her gaze slightly, and her face flushed even deeper, but she still coaxed him with a relatively firm yet gentle attitude.

"Your body is suffering, you can't do this kind of thing. Be good and wait until you're better—" She bit her lip, her eyes were especially watery, with shame, but also love. "Then, whatever you want!"

As she spoke, her eyelashes fluttered downward slightly but didn't quite close. Her half-closed eyes flowed with a soft, eerie glow in the darkness, an unconscious allure.

He took a look, terribly thirsty!

"Actually, I'm fine—"

"Shh," she covered his mouth with her hand and smiled at him. "Whatever you say doesn't matter, I've made up my mind. I'm going to wait for you no matter what."

Then he became a little unhappy, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and that domineering aura returned.

She was used to not taking this to heart, so she remained unmoved and still treated him like a child.

"Good girl!"

Saying that, she kissed his forehead.

He could actually force it, but—it's just too hard to bear!

Because I love her too much, so I feel sorry for her, respect her, and can't bear to disobey her!

"Come on, pet me," he rasped.

She was stunned.

"Xiao guai..." He looked at her with intense heat, his eyes, vowing to burn her to ashes.

Her face, even redder now, with a bead of sweat on her nose.

It's hot!

"Little one…" he urged.

She softly resisted, but her persistence betrayed a fragility, as though she were about to shatter with one blow.

"The children are right here!"

"Just a few touches!" he defended, yet he was particularly insistent on claiming his due!

Her breathing was slightly rapid, her eyes darting around. Was it because she couldn't make up her mind Was it because he had swayed her

He grabbed her hand suddenly. She didn't pull away. He kept dragging her down the path until they reached their destination.

"Just pat me, it hurts!" Though these words sound childish at first listen, in this context they become ambiguous and inappropriate.

With things having come to this, she could only bite her lip and struggle to suppress her breath as she was touched.

He hummed softly, that sexy, tempting groan made Lin Meng's whole body hot.

In fact, it's not just women who can captivate men and stir their hearts. Sometimes, a man's soft, suppressed murmur can be even more powerful than a woman's!

She had touched him a few times, and her whole body was sweating. She didn't dare to touch him again and immediately retracted her hand. He unwillingly and fiercely grabbed her hand, in an attitude that showed no intention of letting go. She looked at him shyly and accusingly.

"We agreed to just touch!"

Then he started being a nuisance. "Let me touch it a few more times!"

It would be best if you could give him a touch!

She's not fooled! She can't possibly be unaware of his little tricks.

"Keep your word, I've already touched everything. Let go now!"

"What are you touching" At that moment, Xiaoyou's voice, laced with drowsiness, sounded confused. Her little head also lifted up.

With a sudden whoosh, Rong Ling released his grip!

Lin Meng pulled her hand back suddenly!

***Aside***

Hee hee, the wicked big boss is back.
