er, failing to comfort or protect her when she was wronged, it became clear why. His heart belonged to another woman, and all his affection was given to her.What's laughable is that, this matter, is p...Lin Mengmeng couldn't understand why Rong Lingqian hadn't called her. After what had happened, he was forcefully taken away by others, why didn't he call her! The thought of him leaving while she was fast asleep, so oblivious and carefree, made her eyes redden with unshed tears. A wave of intense self-blame and guilt washed over her. Then she remembered how that man had even tried to coax her into sleeping peacefully as he left. Tears welled up in her eyes and flowed freely down her cheeks.
He was so good to her, and she felt like such a failure. He knew she was hiding something from him, but he didn't pressure her. Instead, he coddled her, telling her not to overthink things. He spoiled her rotten, even refusing to wake her when they walked.
Lin Meng, you should be ashamed of yourself!
You have no shame facing your man!
Moreover, Zun Shu told her that Rong Ling's disappearance was related to her, and she felt even more ashamed. She kept sobbing, tears streaming down her face. Her heart ached with self-reproach.
That Rong Qi's scheme to frame her and Jiang Yichen involved accusing them of being in cahoots, claiming she hated the He family and had instigated Jiang Yichen to attack them. She also alleged that Rong Ling hated her own family because they had ruthlessly expelled him from the Rong family, leading him to team up with Jiang Yichen to bring down the Rong family. The He family believed this fabrication and became furious, resorting to tactics to have the police arrest Rong Ling once again.
Lin Meng wanted to hate that damned Rong Qikeng, and she was also annoyed with Jiang Yancheng. But right now, the person she hated the most was herself!
She thought, when the man left, he didn't tell her the truth. He had so many chances, but he just kept quiet. All he said was that he was leaving and to be good. Then, he was taken away by the police like that.
Her heart ached terribly.
Why was she asleep at that time Why couldn't she get up She should have seen the man off, at least accompanied him part of the way. The thought of him being alone all the way there, to such a place, while she was having sweet dreams, comfortably nestled in her bed, finally made her break down and sob uncontrollably.
I just feel so disgusting that I've brought my man to this point.
It just felt like, during that time, not being by the man's side constantly was such an unforgivable thing!
She just felt that, with everything being like this, a man still coming to hug and comfort her made her feel very distraught. What kind of mindset was he in doing these things He always protected her too well, always taking everything upon himself, always blaming her in an unserious way――
My heart is so overwhelmed that I've turned all my feelings into tears, and they're flowing freely!
As Zunshu stood there, after the initial flurry of panic subsided, he couldn't help but be moved. He awkwardly tried to comfort her.
"Mengmeng, don't do this. If Rong Shao finds out, he'll be heartbroken!"
Lin Meng listened, but cried even harder. Her tears were like beads on a broken string, rolling down uncontrollably. But she didn't make a sound, as if ashamed to let outsiders know her sadness, knowing that she looked so pitiful now. She clenched her fists tightly, covering her mouth, and whimpered softly, her silver teeth biting into her knuckles, while tears continued to flow profusely.
Such a beauty, born to be pitied, especially since she's in this state now.
Uncle Zun looked at her this way of enduring, and seemed to have lost his backbone all at once, not knowing what to do. Her fragile appearance made him feel helpless. Even a person as strong as steel couldn't help but feel a twinge in his nose.
The two little ones, when they heard the sound, came rushing over. Seeing their mommy's face covered in tears, they didn't ask anything, and just started crying too.
Master Zun was not Rong Ling. No matter how he tried to persuade him, it was no use. And as for coaxing him, firstly, he was a dignified lord and couldn't do such things; secondly, he didn't have the guts to overstep his boundaries and take Rong Ling's place.
This really made him anxious, his normally resolute face was wrinkled up like a steamed bun. Even Fu and Zhen, who should have come over to console him, ended up shedding tears instead of calming him down.
The scene became chaotic for a moment!
In the end, it was Lin Meng who pulled herself together and stopped her tears. This good cry was like letting out all her pent-up misery, confusion, and grievances over the past few weeks. When her eyes were red and swollen from crying, she finally understood!
She should go see Rong Ling, crying won't help. She should figure out a way to get him out of the police station and do everything she can. Besides, he's her husband, they are bound together for life. No matter how big the secret in her heart is, she shouldn't hide it from her own husband. Even if this secret has a huge connection to her husband, she should tell him!
Having made up her mind, a resolute expression appeared on her tear-stained face, and her eyes hardened with determination.
"Uncle, could you please arrange a car for me I'm going to see Rong Ling."
Heavily, she reached out to wipe away her tears. Her frail frame, from this moment on, suddenly straightened, radiating a different kind of courageous air.
Upon seeing him, Zūn Shū was overjoyed. He knew right away that the woman Róng Shao had chosen was no ordinary person.
Lin Meng led the two little ones by the hand back to her room. She quickly tidied herself up, and pulled her smooth, black hair into a high ponytail, revealing a sense of decisiveness.
You can't be this weak anymore!
Looking into the mirror, she said to herself like this.
It's all his fault for spoiling her so much. Because of that, she relies on him for everything and whenever something goes wrong, she just wants to hide in his arms for protection. This went on until she didn't even have the basic courage anymore. If this happened during her four years of being alone abroad, it definitely wouldn't have turned out this way!
I patted my own face to perk myself up, and also to make my complexion look a bit better. Over there, the two little ones had changed their clothes and came back. Lin Meng got a wet towel and gently wiped their faces for them, then whispered an "I'm sorry" and kissed both of their foreheads at the same time.
"Mommy is a little useless, making you all cry with me."
Two little ones were shaking their heads and holding their small faces lovingly against her hand. Their cute and innocent appearance made Lin Meng kiss the two of them again affectionately.
"Come, let's go see Daddy!"
Two little fellows gave a resounding "hm" and set off with a cool, imposing expression. Just as they were about to leave, however, they were stopped. It wasn't the two youngsters who were stopped, but Lin Meng who was stopped.
"Madam, please eat first before leaving. The master specially instructed that if you were to visit him, you must have a meal first!"
He seemed to have anticipated that she would rush to find her the moment she heard the news!
Lin Meng looked at the rice bowls already placed on the table in the distance, and her eyes welled up again uncontrollably.
This man!
This is touching!
Although she had no appetite, she still went and ate. The two little ones had already eaten breakfast, but it was almost lunchtime anyway, so Lin Meng persuaded them to have a little more. After all, if she got busy later, she didn't know if she would have time to find food for the two children.
Two little guys were very well-behaved and had thought of this, so quietly, they ate up the porridge, dishes, and small steamed buns that were served before them.
Then, the three of them, escorted by a group of people, were driven to the detention center in a car. When they arrived, Yu Xu was already waiting there. As soon as the car pulled up, Yu Xu, flanked by two men, personally came over and took them inside.
During an emergency, she and her two children are the top priority to protect and care for. Everything else doesn't matter.
"How are things going" Lin Meng asked as Yu Xu led her inside. She tried her best to remain calm, because some things wouldn't come about just because she was anxious.
"Not good"
These three words, heavy like a weight, pressed down on Lin Meng's heart. But she still took a deep breath and raised her smile lightly, asking calmly and without haste.
"What!"
"That Rong Qi's man is too trashy, this time he really screwed everyone over, framing Big Brother to the point where he even turned him against Uncle Rong San!"
Lin Meng's heart skipped a beat, but she encouraged him. "Go on."
“He framed his elder brother, saying that he reached too far, even into the army, and secretly persuaded and bought off several Rong family members to undermine Rong Sanbo's support, intending to bring him down. Hmph, this is absolutely impossible, his elder brother could never do such a thing. It was that wolfish-hearted Rong Qikeng who would definitely do something like this. I think he wants to splash the dirty water he created onto his elder brother. Originally, there were still many people in the Rong family who supported his elder brother, but because of the incident with Rong Sanbo, many people fell silent. In the end, as the Rong family mobilized their connections, they got his elder brother arrested. Logically, we brothers should be able to bail him out, but now it's still because of the rumors outside that his elder brother really intended to harm Rong Sanbo, so no one dares to risk offending Rong Sanbo and help his elder brother. Even my grandfather said to me, telling me to lay low, saying that this is a matter for the Rong family, and everything depends on what attitude Rong Sanbo takes!”
What kind of attitude did Rong Sanbo have!
"I don't know!" Yu Xu frowned. "Uncle San went to the south for a meeting. You probably know, things have been a bit tense lately because of the South China Sea issue. The leaders of several military regions have basically all gone there!"
Lin Meng's heart sank immediately.
Yu Xu let out a cold snort. "The Jiang family father and son are truly skilled. They chose to create this difficulty at this precise moment. Rong Qinkeng also played along perfectly, immediately framing my eldest brother. While Uncle San is currently preoccupied with his official duties and unable to spare time, they seized this opportunity of his distraction and chaos to strike at my brother!"
"The Jiang family, father and son, and Rong Qikeng are connected!" Lin Meng raised her voice slightly, her rapid strides abruptly coming to a halt. Her heart skipped a beat, beginning to race wildly.
She was unwilling to believe it, but she had to listen, to hear what this was all about!
Yu Xu immediately stopped, following her with a turn of his head. He replied confidently.
“These two have been in cahoots for a long time. When the eldest brother became the chairman of Shuangmu before, this charge of encroachment immediately surfaced. At that time, it was Jiang's father and son, along with Rong Qikeng, who spread rumors on the outskirts, stirred up trouble, and fanned the flames!”
Lin Meng's eyelids twitched uncontrollably!
Don't tell Rong Ling about this!
Then, the Jiang family had already started to target Rong Ling! That day, when Big Brother Jiang said he couldn't stand seeing Rong Ling bullying her and asked her to leave Rong Ling, was he actually plotting against him He made her think he hadn't taken action yet and was truly looking out for her. But when he came to find her, the incident where Rong Ling almost got caught had already been resolved. Even the Double Trees shook slightly because of it. What does this mean!
And, wasn't he also saying that day that as long as she left Rong Ling, he would let Rong Ling go ! She was still struggling with what to do, her head pounding like it was about to explode, and he just rushed to start acting! Besides, Jiang Yancheng barging into her house like that, there must be some scheme behind this! Otherwise, how could Rong Qikeng do such a thing, and how could Rong Ling be framed to this point!
At that moment, a faint disappointment and anger flowed through her heart!
She felt like she had been deceived!
This also made her feel a bit unbearable!
The most crucial point is that Rong Ling and Rong Sanbo were pitted against each other. This level of cunning is too insidious. Was this orchestrated by Rong Qikeng, or… by someone from the Jiang family!
Frowning deeply, she was both annoyed and unwilling.
She herself had been to the police station and spent time in a cell, so she understood that if someone above was involved in this matter, it would be much easier to handle. But if you offended someone higher up, you would essentially face a terrible death. Rong Sanbo's power was enormous, so great that even Yu Xu's grandfather, Old Master Yu, refused to intervene. That Rong Ling, her Rong Ling --
As soon as she thought about it, a wave of weakness washed over her, yet at the same time, a surge of anger rose within her.
"Everything has to be based on evidence. Without concrete proof, we can't find anyone, and if someone is detained for a certain period of time, they must eventually be released!"
With a flash of her silver teeth, she spoke coldly, her eyes glittering with ice.
Yu Xu's face immediately paled.
Lin Meng was a little startled and then her face changed.
"Could it be... Could it be Rong Ling really did something!" He embezzled the Rong family's assets!
"No." Yu Xu answered very succinctly. "My brother wouldn't do such a thing."
Lin Meng immediately let out a sigh of relief, but then she heard Yu Xu continue.
"Your elder brother is in jail, and he can't control what happens outside. You know, now that Rong Qikeng and his gang are in power, they could easily fabricate evidence and pin it on your elder brother. It's not something you can dismiss with just your words! Besides, if we can't find someone to help us with the detention, they could keep him locked up for half a month or even a month without a problem. This would be a significant blow to our Shuangmu Group. As you know, your elder brother's current status represents the image of Shuangmu when he goes out. And as long as this charge of job encroachment isn't cleared, the credibility of Shuangmu will continue to be questioned every day. We are in business, and we can't afford to have our reputation tarnished. Building a brand takes time and effort, but once it's blacked, it's very easy. Trying to rebuild it later won't be so simple!"
Lin Meng now, finally turned pale.
She only then understood, Rong Ling was just arrested for such a small thing, but the influence it brought was serious!
That's the real blow to bullying!
