Lucky Pregnancy & Sweet Marriage: Hubby, Please Turn Off the Lights! Chapter 91 - A Different Woman

“Of course!” Rong Xuelong looked away with a sour expression. “It’s not that you behavior is abnormal, but mother is suspicious. Do you think I’m willing to enter your tomb-like house? The other family heads are extravagant and have many women around them. Your place is cold and cheerless like a haunted house. Rong Linyi, tell me, are you a qualified rich second-generation heir?”

Rong Linyi walked out of the room and closed the door.

“Let’s talk downstairs.”

Rong Xuelong raised her eyes. “You’re willing to talk to me? As expected, there’s a problem!”

The two of them went to the guest room downstairs.

Rong Linyi didn’t turn on the lights and just sat on the sofa.

“Tell me, why didn’t you attend the board meeting today?” Rong Xuelong lit a cigarette leisurely.

Before he even put it to his lips, Rong Linyi said coldly, “Get rid of that.”

Rong Xuelong’s eyes narrowed.

The siblings’ sharp eyes met. Rong Xuelong ultimately lost and put out the cigarette resentfully.

“It’s strange.” She chuckled. “Second Young Master Rong, you have a lot of problems…”

Rong Linyi had never bothered with her smoking before.

“Those who don’t know would think that you’re hiding a pregnant woman here.” Rong Xuelong tilted her head slowly.

As the Rong family’s eldest daughter of this generation, Rong Xuelong looked willful and unrestrained. Even though she was all smiles, she was actually shrewd and had extraordinary insight.

“Forget it, I don’t want to care about what you’re angry with mother about. I came over only to tell you something.” Rong Xuelong seemed to have given up on investigating Rong Linyi’s secret. She clasped her hands together. “It’s Grandma’s 60th birthday tomorrow night. You will participate, right?”

“It depends on my mood.” Rong Linyi rubbed his brows.

“Of course. e over.” Rong Xuelong’s voice was low. “Don’t be stubborn. You don’t want mother to be criticized by that old woman, right? Even if you’re unhappy with what she did back then, she still did it for your own good.”

“You know why I don’t want to go.” Rong Linyi looked at Rong Xuelong coldly.

At each family dinner, the elders in the family would always invite a large group of the C City’s socialites over for their own purposes.

Rong Xuelong sighed.

“Brother, don’t wait anymore…” She said in a sincere and earnest tone. “That woman isn’t worth your time… It’s even less worth it to make a fuss over her and mother. You know what she did to mother back then…”

“Mother has done similar things to her, right?” Rong Linyi interrupted Rong Xuelong and suddenly gritted his teeth. “That’s why I didn’t leave with her and haven’t contacted her all these years. The two of them are even now. I promised not to marry her in this life, but I can’t possibly face Mother calmly either. Tell Mother to stop spending so much effort to reconcile with me.”

Rong Xuelong stood up suddenly.

“Rong Linyi.” She pointed at him and said hatefully, “Do you know that every time you say such nonsense, I want to slap you!”

Rong Linyi sneered and was about to say something.

Rong Xuelong suddenly gritted her teeth in hatred. “If you want to protect your little princess, I have to protect my mother too. It’s okay if you don’t understand her. No one in this family has an easy life!”

The room was silent.

After a long time, Rong Xuelong suddenly relit her cigarette.

“Get rid of it.” Rong Linyi ordered again.

“No!” Rong Xuelong insisted.

Rong Linyi didn’t say anything else but suddenly reached out, snatched the cigarette from Rong Xuelong’s hand and put it out.
