vered it eloquently.“The company’s deputy general manager, who oversees all business operations, is not a position that anyone can fill. Sun Mai has performed well recently, but with his undergraduate...Those who have served in the military are generally more disciplined and have extraordinary perseverance. (....tw's good-looking novels) Although Rong Ling left the army many years ago, he hasn't slacked off in some aspects. At 4 o'clock, when it was still dark outside, he woke up. He had this ability; even if he went to bed too late, as long as his brain had set a specific time to wake up, he would inevitably wake up right before that time, with incredible precision.
She was much calmer in his arms at this time. During the night, she had struggled several times because of the heat, but he stopped her each time. He reached out and touched her forehead, it wasn't so hot anymore, and she seemed to be getting better.
The room was a little dim, but it couldn't hide the paleness of her face. He wasn't made of iron either, and he would instinctively linger in the warm embrace. In this cold winter, to get him out of bed early and then have to leave this place, driving back to his own home, was a torment.
He looked at her, his heart filled with resentment. If she weren't always so unpredictable, always so disobedient, he wouldn't have to be so sneaky now, even holding her would require him to worry about others. Let her divorce early and obediently follow him, but she refused. Every time he thought of this, his heart burned with anger. Right now, he wanted nothing more than to bite her a few times, to make her suffer too, but ultimately, he couldn't be so childish. He could only fidget impatiently with his hair, took a deep breath, and carefully crawled out of bed.
Having suddenly lost its source of heat, Lin Meng felt a little uncomfortable. She let out a few soft "ums", turned over, and then burrowed in the covers like a piglet until she formed herself into a shrimp-like ball before finally settling down to continue sleeping.
He dressed while eyeing her, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. But thinking about how he had to leave, the smile vanished immediately. After dressing, when only his coat was left, he silently slipped outside again. He brought hot water and a hot towel, wiped her sweat, and then helped her into a white nightgown he'd found.
She's naked, but only he can enjoy it!
She woke up a little dazed. He fed her another large cup of warm water, then whispered in her ear, "If you feel uncomfortable, remember to call me. Don't be stubborn, that's just asking for trouble!"
She hummed randomly, not knowing how much she'd heard, and then closed her eyes again, looking as if she were deeply asleep. He watched her, feeling an intense sense of imbalance in his heart.
He might have to leave soon, otherwise, he'd be easily found out! Sometimes he thinks about it, for this woman's sake, he has been sneaking around like a thief every time, how pathetic is that. If his old comrades knew what he used to learn all those skills for – meeting women in the middle of the night and climbing onto their rooftops, they would probably laugh at him!
He pinched her cheek hard and left angrily.
Rong Ling knew that Lin Meng could be quite stubborn sometimes, so he wasn't entirely sure she would heed his final instructions. That's why he called the little one again. Naturally, by then, the little one was already up.
When Xiaohua received the phone call from Rong Ling, he was very happy. Excluding the last time Rong Ling called him but was cut off by Lin Meng, this was Rong Ling's first time calling him, and it had a special meaning. Rong Ling told Xiaohua to take good care of his mommy and to call him immediately if anything was wrong with her. Xiaohua smiled with his eyes closed, "Mmm hmm" in response, obediently beyond belief.
Basically, after last night, his resentment towards Rong Ling has been put down!
After hanging up the phone, the little guy ran to Linmeng's side, leaning on the edge of the bed, giggling.
"It's my uncle calling!"
Children are always like that, they forget the pain once the scab is healed. They have a big memory lapse! In some ways, she's also like her mother, quite easily satisfied and easy to coax.
Now both mother and son were certain that Rong Ling had come last night. This morning, when they woke up, there was already a thick layer of snow outside, estimated to have fallen all night. Lin Mengxiang thought that man coming over on such a snowy day was quite difficult, but after thinking about what he had done to her forcefully last night, she quickly suppressed the faint feeling of goodwill.
That's a pervert! Who knows what he's after!
She wasn't feeling well, and she didn't have much of an appetite either. She ate tomato noodles cooked by Li Yuan in the morning. They were sour and sweet, which was easier to stomach. To be honest, Li Yuan didn't cook very well, but as it was a kind gesture, Lin Meng politely finished the whole bowl. However, after finishing the IV drip, she started feeling worse.
"Mommy, are you feeling unwell!"
The little boy was looking through a storybook on one side, occasionally raising his head to glance at Lin Meng, lest she have any discomfort. Lin Meng frowned, her stomach churned with nausea, as if wanting to vomit but unable to. At this time, her complexion was somewhat dark and pale, it was obvious that something was wrong.
"Mommy!" The little one grabbed Lin Meng's hand and looked at her with concern.
Lin Meng reluctantly suppressed her discomfort, tugged at the corners of her mouth, and smiled at the little one, shaking her head. Just in an instant, her face changed drastically, she pushed the little one away, pulled up the blanket, and rushed out.
"Mommy—" the little fellow cried out, rushing to follow. When he got to the bathroom, Lin Meng was already vomiting messily. The horrifying sound of vomit made the little fellow a bit scared.
"Mommy…" The little guy was a bit flustered.
Lin Meng turned her head and glanced at the little boy, wanting to comfort him, saying he was fine. But the little boy suddenly let out a cry and ran out, stumbling away.
Lin Mengmeng called him, but he was too late. He slumped limply to the ground, vomiting. Then he heard the little guy's voice, sharp and piercing, screaming.
"Uncle, it's bad, Mommy coughed up blood, woo..., is Mommy going to die!"
Rong Ling abruptly snapped the steel pen in his hand, the black ink splattering onto the plan laid out below. The few subordinates discussing with him were taken aback, not daring to breathe.
"Say that again!" Rong Ling twisted his brows tightly, but before the little one could speak again, he commanded in a deep voice, "Give your phone to Mommy and let her talk to me!"
The little boy's eyes were filled with tears, he let out a choked "um" and hurried off clutching his phone to find Lin Meng.
Lin Meng was now dry-heaving, her mouth stained crimson by the tomato juice, which trickled down her chin in a thin stream. Seeing this, the little boy cried out, "Wow!" and rushed over to hug Lin Meng.
"Mommy... Mommy..." The little guy was panicking and could only call out like that.
All this commotion was transmitted directly into Rong Ling's ears through his headphones. He could no longer sit still and abruptly stood up. (..) He didn't even bother wiping the ink from his hands, and he directly ordered in a cold voice.
"Postpone the plan for now. Go over the suggestions I just made and come up with a proposal."
As soon as he finished speaking, he had already reached the door. In a flash, he vanished before everyone's eyes. The crowd looked at each other again, it was truly rare to see Mr. Leng, usually so composed and collected, lose his composure and rush off like this. One couldn't help but wonder who this "Mommy" was!
Over there, Lin Meng coughed up bile and finally managed to rest.
The little guy was hugging her, almost a crying child. Lin Meng reached out and wiped hard at the corner of his mouth, seeing a faint red. She finally understood why the little guy was crying!
"Silly boy!" she weakly scolded, with a laugh. "Don't cry, Mommy's fine!"
The little boy shook his head wildly, two teardrops pitifully hanging from the corners of his eyes.
She pressed the flush handle, sending the waste swirling away. Then she stood up and splashed cold water on her face, trying to clear her head. The little one clung to her legs like a koala, his tiny arms wrapped tightly around them. He followed her everywhere, afraid to lose sight of her for a moment.
"Mommy didn't spit blood, you little fool who reports false military intelligence!" Lin Meng squatted down and gently pinched the little guy's face.
The little guy wiped his face with his hand, looking at Lin Meng in confusion. Lin Meng squeezed toothpaste and started brushing his teeth, rinsing his mouth. Looking at the little guy like this, he felt softer and softer. If he hadn't cared too much, how could he have scared the little guy like this!
"That wasn't blood just now, it was tomato soup!"
The little guy tilted his head.
Lin Meng finished explaining and carefully put the toothpaste cup back in its place. She crouched down beside her little one, who finally understood. A goofy grin spread across his face, but then he remembered calling Rong Ling, his cheeks flushing red and his brow furrowing.
"Mommy, I...I called Uncle!"
"It's okay!" Lin Meng hugged Xiaojia and chuckled. "Mommy will call him again and say it was a misunderstanding!"
Lin Meng immediately called Rong Ling, saying she was fine. Rong Ling just hummed in response. Lin Meng found it uninteresting and quickly hung up the phone. She only had a cold, so coming to think of it, Rong Ling probably wouldn't believe Youyou's claim that she vomited blood. Her eagerness to call him immediately to explain made her seem like she had ulterior motives.
She, however, didn't know that Rong Ling was utterly worried about her. He had already deemed her behavior over the past few days as strange and eccentric. He was afraid that she was merely putting on a brave face to hide her resentment towards him! He couldn't sit still until he saw her with his own eyes!
Lin Meng, after vomiting so violently, suddenly felt refreshed and invigorated. It was as if the illness that had plagued her had been flushed away down the drain along with the vomit. She felt energized and decided to start with a thorough clean-up of her body.
As for the little boy, because he felt his actions just now were too embarrassing, he is currently squatting in a horse stance, reflecting on himself against the wall.
When Rong Ling, with a cold face, forcefully broke into the Ruan family and pushed aside Ruan Chengyang who was trying to stop him from going upstairs, he burst into the room only to see Lin Meng humming a tune happily as she dismantled the bedsheets.
Sunlight streamed through the window, gently falling on her body, illuminating her face which was noticeably flushed. She looked radiant! Rong Ling felt a surge of irritation, wishing he could just punch this woman!
He slowed his pace, approaching step by step. His cold eyes pricked Lin Meng uncomfortably. When she saw Rong Ling suddenly appear, her small mouth formed a slight circle of surprise, and her heart skipped a beat. She hadn't expected him to come back!
Rong Ling glared at her still damp hair, then at the pile of blankets at her feet. He was so angry his teeth ached!
"What the hell are you doing!"
Lin Meng shrank her shoulders timidly, looking very innocent.
"You...didn't you see all of this These...all need to be washed!"
"Aren't there any other people here You, the only patient, have to do this kind of thing!"
Immediately following him, Ruan Chengyang's face darkened! He felt this was an insult, a huge insult!
Lin Meng was increasingly intimidated by Rong Ling's roar. "I... I'm already better!"
"Well!" he said darkly, raising an eyebrow in question. He strode quickly toward her and suddenly reached out, shoving her hard. She hadn't been paying attention and was pushed onto the bed, sinking into the fluffy down comforter. Lying there with all fours in the air looked a little ridiculous!
"Is this what you call good!" He looked down at her with a scornful glare. "A patient should behave like a patient, stop acting so smug!"
Her face flushed red, she felt insulted by his words! With such strength in his hands, if he did that to someone else, they would have been pushed over for sure!
"Where's your maid!" Rong Ling turned his head and glared coldly at Ruan Chengyang.
Ruan Chengyang's face contorted slightly, and he cursed inwardly, feeling even more that Rong Ling was deliberately doing this. What kind of situation is their Ruan family in now This man still has the audacity to ask the servant, isn't this a humiliation!
At the sight of Ruan Chengyang like this, Rong Ling narrowed his eyes, his expression turned sinister, and he reprimanded in a deep voice full of authority.
She's not some old mother figure who has to wait on you three hooligans hand and foot! You're not afraid of dying early, are you
Ruan Chengyang almost got angry when he heard this! Lin Meng was his Ruan family's person, did she need an outsider to defend her like this, and with such a righteous tone!
What a jerk!
Ruan Chengyang's heart was filled with curses!
Rong Ling stared coldly at Ruan Chengyang, making him unable to bear it and finally lower his head. Only then did he turn back, bend down, and pull Lin Meng up from the bed again.
"What are you doing" she asked him awkwardly. Her heart was already touched by his care and protection!
"Sit down!"
He pushed her away, then his cold eyes stared at her menacingly. She numbly obeyed his orders and sat down on the side. The little boy took this opportunity to come over and nestled between Lin Meng's legs, blinking his eyes and looking at Rong Ling.
Rong Ling lightly moved with practiced ease, finding the restroom on his side and washing off the ink stain that still lingered on his hands. He had hurried here all along, hardly having time to tidy himself up!
He washed his hands, dried them, and then returned. His expression was still cold and stern, yet he almost made one's eyes pop out by taking over Lin Meng's previous chores without hesitation. He unmade the bed sheets and then very naturally picked up a new set of sheets and duvet cover that were lying aside, neatly making the bed again.
Lin Meng's feelings were complicated!
Ruan Chengyang was also a little surprised. He never expected that the dignified President Rong, who looked like a person worth millions, would do this kind of work like an old mother, and so naturally! Even if Ruan Chengyang himself was down on his luck, he had never done this kind of work!
Ruan Chengyang's mood suddenly became complicated at the sight of Du Rongling's expression!
At the very least, from this alone, we can see that Rong CEO's care for Lin Meng is not a fabrication!
"Come up!" Rong Ling had already made the bed, turning his head and ordering Lin Meng with a cold face.
Lin Meng lowered her face, slowly approaching. Suddenly, she became a little awkward, like a shy new wife. With Ruan Chengyang present, she desperately wanted to remain indifferent, but she still felt her earlobes getting hot.
Silent, biting her lip, she climbed onto the bed. He stretched out his hand, and the newly changed duvet gently fell upon her. The clean duvet immediately released a fresh scent, so comfortable that she couldn't help but secretly take several deep sniffs.
Rong Ling sat down at the bedside, arrogantly ignoring Ruan Chenyang's existence, and asked Lin Meng. "What just happened!"
Hush now...
The little guy blushed!
She walked towards Rong Ling, lowering her head in embarrassment, taking small steps at a time. She stopped beside him and stretched out her hand, as soft and white as fruit, gently tugging on his sleeve.
"Uncle, I was wrong!"
The little guy is alright, courageous enough to admit his mistakes.
Rong Ling raised an eyebrow and scooped the little one onto his lap. The little one, embarrassed, huddled closer to Rong Ling's ear and whispered the explanation in a small voice.
Ruan Chengyang watched from the side, suddenly feeling like he had nowhere to belong. His experiences of estrangement and lack of familial affection made him very sensitive. He could feel that although the three of them weren't being overtly friendly, there was a deep warmth between them that left no room for outsiders.
He faded away gloomily, his heart heavy with discontent. Though restless and unwilling, he was powerless to change anything!
Rong Ling listened to the little guy's words, didn't say anything, just glared at Lin Meng with his eyes. The glare made Lin Meng feel like there was nowhere to hide under that cold gaze. He could only burrow deeper into his blankets.
It had been quite a while, and Rong Ling finally let out a cold snort, mockingly lecturing her. "You don't even act like a mother!"
Lin Meng felt that this was too insulting. How could she not act like a mother! She suddenly poked her head out of the bed, and unwillingly glared at him too!
He began to criticize her sharply, saying that she was restless even though she was sick and it was worrying; knowing she had a cold, she washed her hair early in the morning; knowing she was ill, she still went through the trouble of washing the sheets...
Pi Di Lin Meng, this head of his was almost about to lift up!
What's even more infuriating is that the little guy doesn't help her either, nodding his head and agreeing with Rong Ling beside him. This angered Lin Meng! This kid, after just one night, has betrayed her, he's too spineless!
Rong Ling again forcefully said that she would send a nanny over to take care of her daily life. Lin Meng definitely couldn't agree! She didn't even know what was going on at home! Hiring a nanny, she really is rich! Not to mention if this nanny was sent by Rong Ling, how could it be without causing criticism!
"My woman is not going to be a maid for others!" Rong Ling frowned and said angrily.
She blushed suddenly, stammering in protest. "W-w-what are you talking about!" Her heart fluttered with a sweet sensation beneath her words.ly revealing information."You have no chance!" Fang said coldly. "We agreed this was the last opportunity, you, retreat immediately, this is an order!""There's still a chance, we made it this far, it...
