ments. Youyou felt wronged, pouted her mouth, and looked at Lin Meng unhappily.Jiang Mu was stunned, and only then did she realize the relationship between the child in her arms and Lin Meng!Is she hi...Chapter Name: 215

Later, Rong Ling called his mother and explained that he wouldn't be going back for the next two days. [..tw super many good-looking novels] His mother chuckled ambiguously on the other end, repeatedly saying it was fine, and even encouraged him to stay in city B for a while longer. Then, she changed the subject, reminding him to be gentle with girls and speak softly and politely, not to keep his face cold all the time, scaring away the girls. It was as if she had already decided that he was accompanying her future daughter-in-law. Rong Ling heard this and frowned, then simply hung up the phone.

After that, he inquired about the progress of tonight's events from Shi Yu. Since those people came prepared, they naturally wouldn't leave too many traces when they retreated. And the fact is, there wasn't a single trace left, it was too clean, which paradoxically became a loophole. Apparently, those people were professionals, even if they weren't, there must have been a particularly professional person behind the scenes directing them!

All that can be left behind on the scene and still be of use are two things -- iron caltrops and explosives. Stone Feather is still sending people to investigate, but both Rong Ling and Stone Feather know that they probably won't find anything in the end.

That person was very cautious and strategic, which made Rong Ling feel troubled. The most frightening thing in the world is an enemy lurking in the shadows, especially when this enemy is cunning, ruthless, and seems to have a certain amount of power!

In his mind, he went through each person who might have done this, narrowing down a few targets. He wasn't afraid of those people coming back; as he had said, he was born to be restless and only combat fueled his life’s pursuit. But what about Lin Meng…

He thought for a moment, then made a phone call. He could look after himself, but this woman, she couldn't afford even the slightest mistake. He had to keep her safe!

When Lin Meng came out of the room, it was past three in the afternoon. The new clothes on her body, needless to say, were purchased by Rong Ling's people. This man knew her body measurements, perhaps even better than she did. Anyway, the clothes he bought always fit perfectly. She didn't feel awkward and put them on directly.

As soon as she stepped out of the room, Lin Meng saw that there were several people sitting and standing inside. Yu Xu, Shi Yu, Xiao Xiang, Yao Feiqian were all there, and even a familiar face -- Miao Qing. Meeting Lin Meng's gaze, Miao Qing blinked and smiled at her, a strange glimmer flashing in her eyes. Lin Meng returned the smile, but she felt uneasy inside. She remembered that Miao Qing was Rong Sanbo's person, and it was also Miao Qing who had advised her to leave Rong Ling.

She hadn't seen her in so long! Four years, the first time.

There was also a strange young man, tall and lanky, but his overall appearance was rather disheveled. With stubble that looked even older than Rong Ling's, he seemed quite mature. Later, after Rong Ling introduced him, they learned this young man was actually his seventh brother, Chen Zhi, who was 28 years old. He was the youngest of Rong Ling's seven brothers. The watch on Lin Meng's hand was made by this technical genius. It was said that he was a handsome guy after shaving, but unfortunately, Lin Meng had yet to see him.

After greeting each other, the brothers sat by themselves and continued playing poker. It seemed they had brought their New Year's entertainment here. They were really into it, and the competition was fierce.

Rong Ling sat with a laptop on his lap, looking at documents while explaining things to the little boy. Although it was Chinese New Year in their country, people abroad didn't celebrate it. It was normal office time for them, so Rong Ling still needed to handle business related to overseas contacts. The little boy nestled in Rong Ling's arms, his dark eyes sometimes gazing at the computer and sometimes turning to look at Rong Ling's face. Occasionally he would nod or murmur "um," not sure if he understood much of what was said. However, his serious expression was quite intriguing!

Lin Meng found it rather amusing. After all, the little fellow was only four years old. What could he possibly understand Rong Ling was talking about some rather complex economic theories. Even an average middle school student would find it difficult to grasp. One couldn't help but wonder what he was thinking, discussing such things with a child.

"Youu, can you hear me!"

Lin Meng sat down at the edge of the bed, leaned over, and glanced at the laptop. The screen was full of dense English text. Lin Meng raised an eyebrow.

The little boy raised his hand, hooked his little finger, and grinned mischievously. "I understand a little bit."

"If you don't understand, learn slowly!"

The little guy let out an "mm" and nodded heavily. Then, he puffed out his chest defiantly and, with a stern face, said to his mother: "Mommy, you can't underestimate me!"

Lin Meng was stunned.

Rong Ling reached out and patted the little guy's head in praise. The little guy giggled, his expression tinged with a touch of smugness.

It seems that during her sleep, the little guy was subdued by Rong Ling again. Look, he's already clinging to him so quickly! Lin Meng felt a bit uncomfortable and glared fiercely at Rong Ling.

Rong Ling accepted it calmly, picked up the phone, and asked her in a casual tone, "I'll order some food for you. What do you want to eat!"

As soon as he said it, she realized how hungry she was. Then she remembered the chaotic mess from near dawn. Uncontrollably, her face started to heat up, and she shifted uncomfortably in her seat, glancing at the bed. Good. She let out a sigh of relief inside. The sheets had been changed, and Lin looked like he was wearing a new shirt. It probably wouldn't give anything away.

"Well, how about some noodles" she cleared her throat, feeling a bit awkward. She turned her head slightly away, lowering it half way.

Rong Ling remained impassive, watching silently. Those who were clever could naturally glean some insights from the subtlest of clues. A glimmer of amusement flickered in his eyes as he dialed a number. Soon, steaming bowls of noodles arrived, accompanied by other snacks - these were for the others, a sort of afternoon tea treat.

After everyone finished eating and drinking, they started playing poker enthusiastically. Lin Meng had also finished her meal and was sitting idly by, so she walked over to watch Shi Yu and the others play cards. People always gravitate towards lively places, and she was no exception.

“Heh heh, Mengmeng, want to play” Yu Xu shook the cards in his hand. Lin Meng shook her head, indicating that she wouldn’t. Yu Xu immediately volunteered to teach her. So, Yu Xu stood up, switched places with Lin Meng, and acted as her military advisor.

They were playing "Bao Huang," a popular poker game in Shandong. Because it involves deception, manipulation, and power struggles, these men, who were already more cunning than average, found the game utterly captivating. This game of wit and strategy was perfect for them!

This game isn't difficult, Lin Meng picked it up quickly. During the first three rounds, everyone let her win, making for a smooth and enjoyable experience. Once, she successfully protected the Emperor from harm and escaped, which delighted her immensely. Her laughter was so infectious, bright and clear like wind chimes, that even Rong Ling, the workaholic, couldn't help but raise his head from his documents to glance at her.

At first, Little Youyou was quite resilient and stayed by Rong Ling's side, listening to his father impart business wisdom. However, seeing her own mother so happy, the little one finally couldn't resist. He got off the bed and toddled over to Lin Meng's side, curious and moving forward. This newbie who had joined halfway through the game, Lin Meng, began teaching the little one. The two mothers whispered to each other, sometimes leaning into each other's ears and giggling like little birds, adding a lot of fun to the game. It made people feel that these two were more entertaining than playing poker!

After letting the other side win several times, they started to get serious. The key was that Yu Xu, that kid, was incredibly arrogant. Relying on Lin Meng being his bodyguard and knowing everyone wouldn't really do anything to Lin Meng, every time he won, he would swagger around like he had a dog's tail wagging proudly behind him. The others couldn't stand it anymore and started playing for real. Those guys, Shi Yu, Xiao Kuang, and Yao Fei Qian, were masters of scheming and trickery – something Lin Meng couldn't possibly compete with. Yu Xu, this brave warrior, also couldn't win against them! As for Chen Zhi, he was focused on technology and wasn't good at such underhanded tactics either. He ended up being bullied just like Yu Xu. However, because Lin Meng joined the fight, he immediately cleverly pulled Miao Qing in while retreating to the sidelines himself, becoming a strategist barking orders and creating confusion, throwing smoke screens!

Now, it's Lin Meng who becomes the victim. Yu Xu can't take it anymore, he cries out in panic, accusing others of being despicable and cheating. All in all, in the eyes of others, he is a defeated dog, able to only regain some face with his verbal "woof woofs."

"Mumu, I'm so sorry. They are so cunning and cruel. I don't know how to let them give way to a lady..." Yu Xu cried out in despair.

Lin Meng is now the one who lost the worst among these people!

"It's fine..." Lin Meng softly shook her head. Although she lost miserably, she was very spirited and said with a serious smile, "You are not allowed to let me off easy, that would be no fun at all..."

It's all about the participation when it comes to games, you know Even though she has a dozen white bandages stuck on her head right now, which is quite embarrassing, watching Shi Yu and the others deceive each other, engaging in witty banter, is truly entertaining. I have to say, these men are really good with their words, and they're incredibly clever!

This kind of attitude from Lin Meng made these men admire her even more. Beautiful women abound; some are empty-headed vases, perhaps conceited, believing themselves to possess both beauty and intelligence, looking down on others. Others may take it for granted that everyone should make way for them. Some might be so delicate that they can't withstand a blow...and so on, there are many things about them that one might find irritating. But a woman like Lin Meng, who is genuinely likeable from the heart, is truly rare.

In this round, Lin Meng was easily exposed as a "Dark Guard" and her attempt to support the Emperor failed. Ultimately, she could only leave dejectedly and be put back under "seal" again!

"Hehehe, I'll do it, I'll do it..." Yao Feiqian took a white paper strip and was eager to slap it on Lin Meng's head.

Lin Meng was startled and ducked her head, whispering, "Please be gentle..."

Lao Wu Yao Feiqian grinned wickedly, revealing two big white teeth. His eyes were curved like a flower thief, lecherous and sly. The little boy stood beside him with an expression of utter fear, his eyes half-closed and head tucked in as he stared at Yao Feiqian. It was as if the note he had slapped on Lin Meng's forehead was also slapped onto his own.

This mother and son duo are truly a joy to behold! Others, watching the scene unfold, couldn't help but chuckle. They unanimously decided that from now on, they absolutely had to include this mother-son pair in their card games!

Yu Xu saw Yao Fei's smug look and couldn't stand it. He immediately cried out, asking Rong Ling for help, and shamelessly started putting the screws to Yao Fei.

"Big Brother, come quickly! The Fifth Brother is bullying your wife. The Second and Third Brothers are teaming up with him to bully you. This isn't letting us live!"

Rong Ling shot him a cold, piercing look. Yao Feiqian felt a bit uneasy and tried to cover it up with a nervous laugh, stammering, "Brother, don't get me wrong! This is just a game, how can it be bullying"

But as if by ill fate, when Rong Ling cast that look at him, Yao Feiqian's hand happened to land on Lin Meng's forehead. Because of Rong Ling's glare, Yao Feiqian's movements became a little stiff, so his hand lingered on Lin Meng's forehead for a bit longer than intended.

Yu Xu, fearing that the world wouldn't be chaotic enough, roared and pointed at Yao Feiqian, gleefully shouting, "Taking advantage! Taking advantage! The fifth son is not righteous, taking advantage!"

Yao Feiqian's hand immediately retracted as if struck by electricity. Somehow, even though he was usually thick-skinned, at this moment, when his eyes met Lin Meng's clear black and white gaze, his face flushed slightly.

Lin Meng blushed from Yu Xu's teasing. Her heart fluttered wildly. Just now, Yu Xu had called Rong Ling "your wife"! She was taken aback. How could he say that! What would others think And what about Rong Ling...how would he feel He must be angry!

As expected, Rong Ling frantically typed on her laptop for a while before putting it down and walking over with a cold face. Her heart pounded, she turned her head away from him, at this moment, she should be grateful that there were white sticky notes stuck on her forehead, which could help her block her expression to some extent. If that man denied everything later or said something too hurtful, she wouldn't look so embarrassed in front of everyone.

"Alright, Rong Lingguo had arrived. He reached out and pulled her up, carefully peeling each white paper note off her head before sticking them one by one onto his own."

She stared wide-eyed in surprise and confusion.

The expressions of the several men beside him also became a little strange.

"I'll fight for you, you just watch!"

Rong Ling spoke in a low voice, pulling her down to sit. The little one immediately followed and squeezed next to them, leaving Yu Xu with no space on the other side. Yu Xu touched his nose, not that surprised. He shifted his legs, moving closer to Rong Ling's back, then laughed fearlessly, his long fingers pointing at Rong Ling's head, which looked like it was about to fall off, shaking with laughter.

"Brother, you have this day too..."

Never before had they beaten Rong Ling so badly in a card game, that he was left with white slips of paper all over his head! This is a new experience for them!

"Dreamy, you're still the most capable one, even getting Big Brother out here! Just now, we were playing cards with Big Brother, but he wasn't giving us any face. On a major occasion like this, he even poked fun at his pitiful little business. Heh heh, if I had known this would happen, I should have gotten you on board earlier, haha. Big Brother, Second Brother, Fifth Brother, Little Miao, heh heh…" Yu Xu rolled his eyes and looked at them all, grinning mischievously. After he'd made everyone’s faces turn black with embarrassment, he arrogantly declared, "Brothers, listen up! Today, I'm going to make a killing! Following Big Brother, we have meat to eat!"

The little guy let out a giggle and started laughing, tickled by something.

"Cut the crap!" Rong Ling glared at Yu Xu, his eyes sweeping across the room coldly before commanding in a forceful tone, "What are you all waiting for Begin!"

Looking at his icy aura, everyone felt a chill. This man was here for revenge against those who wronged his wife!

"Alright, let's begin!" A few men who had been "challenged" exchanged glances and immediately began with fierce determination!

Lin Mengxin felt a little strange in her heart. She glanced at Rong Ling, then at everyone else, wondering why no one reacted to the word "wife." This word should be quite unusual, but why didn't anyone...

Did she overthink it, or did everyone miss something! Or...

Lin Meng was very confused. Looking at Rong Ling who sat there deeply lost in thought, she licked her slightly hot lips and secretly pushed this matter down.

In the first round, Rong Ling "saved himself" with lightning speed, escaping quickly and instantly taking down the other four people. Lin Meng was so shocked her eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Sitting beside Rong Ling, she could only hold back her excitement to avoid revealing his cards.

Feng Ling tore down the four white paper strips from his forehead and pulled over Lin Meng's small hand, placing it in her palm.

"Go, hit hard and reclaim your ground!"

“Me!” Lin Meng excitedly exclaimed, her face flushed red. Her narrow eyes glittered like stars.

The innocence was dazzling!

Rong Ling nodded.

Lin Meng was delighted and let out a cheer, jumping up like a child, no longer showing any composure. She opened her beautiful eyes, feigning wickedness and grinning mischievously at the four of them. After the four of them blushed awkwardly, she flipped her fingers, picked up the note, and without hesitation, "pap pap pap…", four little slaps landed on their foreheads like talismans.

"Hee hee, it's still more comfortable to shoot people. It's so fun, really fun..." Lin Meng squatted down and hugged Rong Ling's neck, giggling with flowers trembling, a charming and unique charm, but she didn't know that this kind of style quietly captured the eyes of many.

The little guy was also excited, looking at the paper strips that were still fluttering in front of the four people's foreheads. His big eyes widened too, and he grabbed Rong Ling's arm with his small hand, excitedly shouting, "I want one too, I want one too..."

That look, it was just like a wolf pouncing on sheep, except the sheep were four black-faced, menacing mutant sheep! And he, well, he was nothing more than a little wolf pup! The infuriating thing was, Rong Ling nonchalantly replied "Good," then after another round of "self-preservation," he single-handedly took down all four again!

"Cheating!" Yao Feiqian wailed in dissatisfaction. As soon as he finished speaking, the little guy's small hand slapped him, accompanied by a childish laugh that was both helpless and infuriating.ndergarten are all small but mischievous, mostly little goblins. After this incident, looking around, there are very few other children who don't get along with this little guy!The little guy isn't re...
