Fang Jingting snorted lightly, "I hope it wasn’t sothing you had to fight for."
"..." Fang Jingyi’s eyes deepened, and the two sisters exchanged a glance that only they could understand.
After spending a while in the backyard, Fang Jingyi and Fang Jingting returned to the main hall.
The mont their figures vanished from the backyard steps, a person hidden in the bushes slowly erged, staring in the direction they left, a cold sneer curling at the corners of their lips.
After dinner, it was ten o’clock at night when Rong Mochen suggested leaving. Rong Zhengfeng personally escorted them to the gate, kindly looking at Jin Jumo, reminding her, "Girl, you’re carrying a child now, you must be careful, nothing can go wrong. Like that fall the other day, it can’t happen again, otherwise, if Grandpa gets angry, it’s quite terrifying!"
Surprised, Jin Jumo glanced at Rong Mochen, thinking he must have told Rong Zhengfeng about her fall the other day.
She muttered to herself, why did he even tell the old man about that?
"Why are you looking at Mochen?" Rong Zhengfeng noticed Jin Jumo’s gaze and raised an eyebrow, "It wasn’t Mochen who told ."
Then who?
Jin Jumo frowned, looking at Rong Zhengfeng in confusion.
Rong Zhengfeng smiled enigmatically, "That’s not sothing you need to worry about. Grandpa has his ways of finding things out."
"..." Jin Jumo twitched her lips, does this include surveillance?
Suddenly, Jin Jumo felt that living in Jinming Port City wasn’t absolutely safe!
"Alright, it’s getting late, head back." Rong Zhengfeng looked at Rong Mochen, his authoritative eyes showing affection, "Drive carefully on the way, there’s a pregnant woman in the car, you know?"
Rong Mochen pulled a corner of his mouth, "Mm."
Rong Zhengfeng nodded, "Bring Momo over often in the future."
"Okay." Rong Mochen agreed to it all.
After Rong Mochen and Jin Jumo left, Rong Zhengfeng frowned at Fang Jingyi and Fang Jingting standing idly nearby, "You’ve t the person, said whatever nasty things you wanted to their face, and now they’ve left, what are you standing around for? Sticking around to watch my old face?"
"..." Fang Jingyi and Fang Jingting both twitched their lips.
Fang Jingyi’s face darkened, "Dad, why are you saying that? Jingting and I mainly ca to see you today, not for that woman?"
"You’re just spouting useless nonsense." Rong Zhengfeng snorted softly, feeling even that couldn’t express his disdain for them, glaring at the two of them, "Hypocrites!"
Fang Jingyi’s face alternated between red and white, worriedly glancing at Rong Sinan and Tang Ruan, who hadn’t left yet, and lowered her voice, "Dad, the kids haven’t left yet."
Rong Zhengfeng raised his eyebrows, glanced at Rong Sinan and Tang Ruan, then turned his gaze to Fang Jingyi, snorting, "Fang Jingyi, don’t forget you have two sons, Sinan’s your son, Mochen is too. You’re so biased, even I can’t stand it."
After saying this, Rong Zhengfeng turned and walked towards the main hall.
Fang Jingyi watched Rong Zhengfeng’s departing figure nonchalantly, then turned back to Rong Sinan and Tang Ruan with a softened expression, moving in front of Rong Sinan, "Ah Nan, when did you and Ruan Ruan start planning for pregnancy, why didn’t you tell mom?"
Rong Sinan’s eyes darkened, pressing his lips together without a word.
Fang Jingyi was slightly startled, "Ah Nan, why aren’t you talking to mom?"
Rong Sinan slightly frowned, looking at Fang Jingyi helplessly, "Mom, how can I talk to you about sothing like this?"
"What’s so bad about it? If mom knew you and Ruan Ruan were planning for pregnancy, I could have Aunt Zhang make so nutrition supplents for you to send over. You don’t tell mom anything, how can she help you?" Fang Jingyi teased affectionately.
Rong Sinan pressed his lips tightly, his warm eyes silently watching Fang Jingyi.
Seeing him silent again, Fang Jingyi frowned, reaching out to hold his arm with concern, "Ah Nan, what’s wrong with you today? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Yes, Nan Nan, you haven’t said much tonight, did sothing happen?" Fang Jingting also approached the two, her gaze sliding from Rong Sinan’s face to Tang Ruan’s body, inquiring.
Tang Ruan’s eyes and brows were obedient and soft, her voice gentle and light, "Mom, Auntie, don’t worry. Sinan is quite mature due to preparing for pregnancy. And hearing about Miss Jin’s pregnancy today made him a little preoccupied."
Rong Sinan’s eyes slightly contracted, looking at Tang Ruan in disbelief.
Upon hearing Tang Ruan ntion Jin Jumo’s pregnancy, Fang Jingyi’s face sharply darkened, "Ah Nan, you’re still young, there’s no rush about pregnancy, don’t put too much pressure on yourself." That child’s safe birth isn’t guaranteed yet!
Of course, in the end Fang Jingyi didn’t voice this last sentence, ultimately considering her image as a mother in Rong Sinan’s eyes.
Rong Sinan’s jaw slightly tensed, his eyes hiding a hint of annoyance, "Mom, Momo’s pregnancy is a joyous event. I’m happy for Mo Chen and Momo, and even happier for you. Soon, you will have two adorable and obedient grandchildren..."
"Adorable and obedient? I don’t expect much from the children of that kind of woman!" Fang Jingyi snorted coldly.
Rong Sinan’s face darkened, "Mom, you’re the children’s grandmother. Saying things like that is truly disheartening!"
"..."
Fang Jingyi was stunned, seemingly not expecting Rong Sinan to use such a harsh word as "disheartening" to describe her.
"Nannan, silly child, how can you speak like that to your mother? Your mother holds you dearly in her heart, always thinking of you, wishing the best for you. In this world, the one your mother loves the most is you. Don’t say such things again to hurt your mother, okay?" Though her words were reproachful, Fang Jingting’s voice was soft and gentle.
Rong Sinan tightened his lips, looking at Fang Jingyi’s hurt expression, feeling a pang of guilt, yet there were things he had to say today, "Mom, I am your son, and so is Mo Chen. I hope you treat us equally. You hold dearly in your heart; please do the sa for Mo Chen."
"How can I hold him dearly in my heart? Does he ever listen to ? When has he ever listened to ? And yet he does things like this!" Fang Jingyi’s face changed imdiately when Rong Mochen was ntioned, her voice sharp.
Rong Sinan’s eyes flickered with disappointnt, "Mom..."
"Ah Nan, don’t say anymore." Fang Jingyi held his arm, her eyes filled with pain as she glanced at his left leg, "Whenever I think about your leg being because of Mo Chen, my heart... If it wasn’t for your leg, you would be the CEO of Rong Family, and you wouldn’t have to endure the pain from your leg injury in cold or hot weather. My heart... it hurts more than yours!"
Fang Jingyi choked up, raising a hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Mom, how many tis must I say it for you to understand? Even if my leg were perfectly fine, my intention was never with Rong Family. Ultimately, it was impossible for to take over Rong Family. Mo Chen’s talent in business is evident to both of us, and he is more suitable to be in the position of CEO of Rong Family than I am. So, words like earlier, I no longer want to hear them." Rong Sinan frowned as he finished speaking, stepped aside, and walked off.
Yet Fang Jingyi seed to not take Rong Sinan’s words to heart, her tear-filled eyes painfully observing his slightly limping left leg. Tears welled up in her eyes again, she covered her lips, and her head lowered with soft sobs.
Tang Ruan watched Fang Jingyi, a hint of sarcasm quickly passing through her eyes although her face was worried, she reached out and held her hand, "Mom, please don’t be sad. Sinan has always understood your kindness towards him. It is just that Sinan and Mo Chen have a close relationship, and the kinder you are to him, the more he feels it’s unfair to Mo Chen. At the end of the day, Sinan’s heart is softer than anyone else’s."
The more Tang Ruan spoke this way, the more Fang Jingyi’s tears flowed, and her heart felt even more tender towards Rong Sinan.
A person’s heart can only hold so much, while people, even less.
Yet as one’s significance in her heart grows, the significance of others can only diminish.
Fang Jingyi looked at Tang Ruan with reddened eyes, "Ah Nan is kind-hearted and cherishes brotherly affection, so in many cases, Ah Nan suffers. Ruan Ruan, you are Ah Nan’s partner, I cannot always care for him, so please take care of him for ."
Tang Ruan sighed softly, "Mom, so pains are etched into the bones. Sinan’s leg remains his biggest worry. I’m concerned that if this knot isn’t untied, Sinan’s mindset might change. Moreover, now Mo Chen, as a younger brother, has his own family. Sinan, sigh... Mom, I can only do my best."
As she spoke, Tang Ruan glanced at Rong Sinan waiting in the distance, hastily said, "Mom, I’ll find ti to go shopping with you another day. Sinan is waiting for , I should go."
Fang Jingyi glanced at Rong Sinan, quickly said, "Then go ahead, don’t keep him waiting, his leg isn’t well."
Tang Ruan then quickly walked towards Rong Sinan.
Watching Tang Ruan support Rong Sinan as they left, Fang Jingyi’s tears fell once more.
Fang Jingting retracted her gaze from Rong Sinan and Tang Ruan, looked at Fang Jingyi who was silently weeping, and sighed, "Though they are brothers, how can they be so different? One is kind-hearted and always considerate of others, while the other..."
Fang Jingting’s words undoubtedly deepened Fang Jingyi’s compassion and heartache for Rong Sinan, while simultaneously intensifying her buried dissatisfaction and resentnt towards Rong Mochen.
Back in the Spyker heading to Jinming Port City, Jin Jumo looked at the embellished box she had set on the car dash, her dark and shiny eyes reflecting deep thought.
Her left hand suddenly enveloped by the man’s warm and big hand, Jin Jumo’s eyebrows gently moved, turning slowly to look at the man steering with a single hand, his expression indifferent, she lightly tugged the corner of her lips, "Mr. Rong, driving like this is considered illegal, points will be deducted."
Rong Mochen looked at Jin Jumo, his face expressionless, yet he said, "What are you thinking?"
Jin Jumo was slightly taken aback, curved her eyebrows, turned her gaze forward, joking, "Does Mr. Rong want to control my thoughts as well as ?"
Rong Mochen furrowed his brow, seemingly punished Jin Jumo by pinching her tightly.
Yet Jin Jumo didn’t utter a sound, even though the pain in her palm hadn’t healed completely, her expression approached numbness, remaining silent.
Rong Mochen’s brow furrowed tightly, the car fell silent for a mont before a deep voice arose.
"Mr. Rong, do you think it’s really necessary for us to get married?" Jin Jumo looked at Rong Mochen, her eyes calm.
"This matter is not up for discussion, as the result will not change." Rong Mochen said faintly.
