d reach out to help her, she had already jumped up like a startled rabbit, pushing against his chest and stammering apologies: "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..."Her voice was exceptionally pleasant, like...Who else could save the day besides that man!
Lin Meng was unable to resist the little boy's pleading eyes. She couldn't explain it herself, but she resented that despicable man so much in her heart that she smashed the small plate of oil vegetables in her hand into the basin and ran out with a whoosh.
"Youyou, don't follow me. Mommy will be back soon."
He ran off, but he didn't forget to tell the little one a word.
Of course, she immediately went to find Rong Ling.
"Rong Ling, Rong Ling..."
She called out, ran around, but still the man came out from the study by himself before she found him.
"Oh, you explain it to Youyou!" She frowned with worry. "I... I'm at my wit's end!"
She tiptoed, stretching her neck as high as she could to quickly peck at Rong Ling's face. "Let me owe you one for now, tonight...I'll return it to you tonight!"
Her face flushed red, she looked at him shyly. Those bewitching black eyes gazed at him seductively, simply irresistible.
The man raised an eyebrow.
Her face flushed even deeper, but she still warned with an air of authority: "But you'd better not say anything bad about Youyou!"
"I didn't say I agreed!"
"Hey!" she hastily reached out to grab him, her voice soft and pleading. "Please, I beg you! You...you also have a responsibility, don't you Besides, you're so smart, you must have a way, right!"
The man's mood improved a little after being coaxed by her. He smirked and ran his hand over her tender cheek, his voice hoarse. "Tonight, just do whatever I say"
Her delicate frame trembled, her face even redder than fire, she didn't answer, she quickly ran away.
A man swaggered up behind her, taking it as acquiescence.
Lin Meng returned to the kitchen, Rong Ling followed behind and called out. "Youyou, come out, uncle is going to test your martial arts class!"
The little boy, upon hearing this, immediately became excited. He leaped to his feet and ran out the door. Thus, he was easily led away by Rong Ling. It is unknown what Rong Ling said to the little boy afterward, but later on, the little boy never again bothered Lin Meng by asking “that one…this one…” which gave Lin Meng a huge sigh of relief. However, it was inevitable that he would be terribly tormented by Rong Ling’s beastly ways that night.
Lin Meng was about to collapse onto the bed, feeling like her body wasn't even her own. The man moved his hand ambiguously over her bare skin, sliding along her sexy chest, little by little, towards her valley. She trembled slightly, unable to resist. Luckily, the man only played around and didn't really go for it.
She narrowed her eyes, smoothing out her temper for half a day before she had the energy to speak. Naturally, she still brought up the previous matter. She naturally requested Rong Ling to stop. Before, because she and Rong Ling hadn't reached an understanding, Rong Ling did that kind of thing, and she couldn't be too hard on him. It’s just that now that the two of them were already together in Li Jiang City, Rong Ling shouldn't have done that.
At first, Rong Ling was reluctant. To let the Ruan family's wealth and prosperity go to waste, wouldn't he just be a fool What if they gained power later and wanted to release such a beautiful woman so easily!
Lin Meng climbed onto him like a cat, biting and scratching him, her voice soft but threatening, showing that she had her own ideas in mind.
“In short, you have to trust me!” She sat on him aggressively, her slender hand poking his hard chest muscles, and giggled, “Anyway, you can’t hold me back. You disciplined a stupid director, but there are so many others with ulterior motives! You know you’re capable, if you put your foot down, they have no choice but to obey. They will definitely play me for a fool! Rong Ling, do you want me to be played by another man!”
Rong Ling reluctantly nodded in agreement, twisting her brows with displeasure.
But you are not allowed to run around anymore. The affairs of the Ruan family are their own, and you are not allowed to interfere any further.
"This won't do! I came back for this!"
Rong Ling's face immediately darkened. "You only came back for this!"
In other words, if nothing had happened to the Ruan family, this woman would never have come back!
A glint of bloodlust flashed in the man's eyes. He immediately pressed the woman on him down, coldly warning, "The Ruan family should only eat what they can handle. If they want to rise again, they shouldn't forget about the huge stake that was split off earlier. No one is a fool. They would rather not cooperate with the established giant and instead go work with Guangda, a bankrupt!"
"Don't worry about that for now, you just promise me not to interfere, okay" she said, kissing him sweetly.
The man didn't say another word. He simply pulled the blanket over her head.
"Go to sleep!"
Then he turned over.
She pulled back the covers and wound herself around him from behind, her hands and feet entwining with his body. Her sexy, delicate figure rubbed against his bare back, humming softly, "Rong Ling, Rong Ling..."
It's like summoning a spirit.
The man was stirred by her call, he rolled over and covered her.
"Still so energetic, it seems like I'm not working hard enough!"
The man's lips curled into a sinister smile. He hunched his shoulders and plunged straight in.
She screamed, her whole body trembling with sensitivity. Her flushed and sweaty body was as if she had been immersed in water.
"No... I can't..."
"I... I'm going to die..."
She whimpered and pleaded for mercy, but the man was like an arrow already nocked, unable to relent. In the end, she was knocked unconscious. Finally, she fell silent, as he desired.
The next morning, the man was already gone. Lin Meng pounded the bed in frustration, but she could only pull herself together and keep fighting. However, there was a knot of worry and guilt in her heart. If it was because of her that Guangda's situation worsened, how could she face her grandfather!
Rong Ling's power is immeasurable. She has been immersed in the business circles of city B for so long, how could he not know! She just hopes that man can have her in his heart and consider her more, not making things too difficult for her.
And all she could do was her best. For Guangda, and for that man.
It's possible that Lin Meng's pleading from that day worked, because in the end, Ruan Chengyi and Ruan Chenghui, despite initially shouting about going to verify Lin Meng, quietly dropped the matter after that. They started taking orders again, occasionally managing to complete one or two, but as Rong Ling said, it was a huge obstacle. It wasn't easy doing business like this. The two brothers discussed whether they should go somewhere else and are currently selecting cities.
It seems they all understand that those orders are the result of Lin Meng's hard work, so there hasn't been any mention of her being a pimp again.
Time flies by, just like flowing water.
When the sky began to snow in December, and a cold wave swept in, it signaled that winter was truly here. In this chilling season, something Lin Meng had been worried about at the beginning finally happened.
Xiaoyou had a fight with other children at kindergarten, and Lin Meng was then invited to Dafeng Kindergarten. In the headmaster's office, which favored warm colors, stood two children, both looking rather disheveled. But the outcome of the fight was clearly evident. The slightly taller boy looked much worse than Xiaoyou. From his resentful gaze at Xiaoyou, one could tell that he was the losing party. As for Xiaoyou, she pursed her lips and tilted her chin upwards, showcasing her somewhat angular jawline, standing there arrogantly.
Lin Meng arrived a bit early. The headmaster invited Lin Meng to sit down first. Lin Meng pulled the child over and inquired about what had happened. The child's personality seemed to be developing along the lines of his father, being taciturn and capable of summarizing things in just a few words.
"It's nothing, he started the trouble and wanted to hit me, but I ended up beating him."
Lin Meng sighed, lamenting that letting his young son learn martial arts had been well-intentioned. After all, a boy with martial skills would always be better off, wouldn't he But now, this little kid from the lower grade had actually beaten up a kid from the higher grade! Lin Meng didn't know whether he should be proud of his son or worried for him!
Then, the child's parents also came. Lin Meng looked over, her heart skipped a beat. This woman was someone she knew! Wasn't she the same woman she had met at the Tongzhou Hotel when she first returned to China She seemed to be Rong Ling's relative!
Mu Xin Feng, who is Rong Qi Keng's wife, immediately cried out in alarm when she saw her precious son beaten up like that. His nose was bruised, his face swollen, and there was even a bit of blood on his face.
"Dada, who did this to you! Oh my, which little rascal is it Mama's heart breaks for you!"
Mu Xin Feng's identity was obvious, and the director's attitude immediately changed. Not only did he stand up himself, but he also respectfully handed Mu Xin Feng a tissue and asked her to sit down. He comforted her: "Ms. Mu, please don't worry, the child only got a few scratches, they are minor injuries, and they will be fine in a few days!"
"Minor injuries! Mu Xin Feng's voice suddenly jumped, revealing strong displeasure. "Minor injuries are still injuries! I entrusted my child to your kindergarten, not to be beaten!"
As soon as the words left her mouth, she abruptly shifted her gaze and landed on Lin Meng. After a moment of surprise, her eyes instantly turned sharp. Looking at Xiao Youyou who was also disheveled, Mu Xin Feng already understood what had happened.
"You hit him!" she questioned Xiao Youyou.
Xiaoyou puffed out her chest and said in a loud voice, "Yes! But he hit me first!"
Even the clever little guy didn't forget to defend himself.
Mu Xinfeng was furious. Looking at this boy, she found him extremely irritating. She had been harboring resentment towards him before, and now, because of him, her second son had been beaten. This ignited another spark of anger within her. Although her daughter hadn't been injured the other day, she couldn't have stood up for her, but today, her son was the one who was hurt, so she had to speak up!
"What's wrong with you, child! Look at what you've done to our Dada! At such a young age, you have such a cruel heart. What will become of you in the future!" Lin Meng --
She changed the subject abruptly, looked directly at Lin Meng, and scolded, "How do you educate your child! This is a civilized society, it's not fashionable to beat people with fists!"
Lin Meng smiled slightly and calmly replied, "Perhaps it's best not to argue right now. I suggest we take our children away first and tend to their wounds."
The principal's face turned awkward immediately, because she had always been receiving heavy gifts from Mu Xinfeng, and both the Mu family and the Rong family were not people she could easily offend. So when something happened, she naturally hung up the phone with Mu Xinfeng and put the most important matter aside. The principal immediately realized this was her mistake, a big one.
Then, the headmaster immediately called over two teachers to take the two little kids back to treat their wounds respectively!
Leading Lin Meng away was naturally the kindergarten teacher in charge of Xiao Youyou. The young teacher helped Lin Meng deal with the injuries on the little one, hesitating several times. Lin Meng noticed this and smiled encouragingly, "Teacher, just say what you have to say. I haven't been back to the country for long, so I'm not very familiar with the situation here. If you have any thoughts, just tell me."
This teacher surnamed Fang hesitated for a moment, glanced at the door, lowered her voice, and almost whispered: "Yoyo's mother, actually, kids fighting isn't a big deal. But the children here are all pretty precious. Their parents are all wealthy, especially Rong Hendda's mother. Her family is the famous Mu family in this area. Her husband's family is even more incredible. It's a family that can make Kyoto tremble if they stomp their feet. Such families are not easy to mess with! You'd better be careful. If Mrs. Mu gets angry later, I advise you not to argue with her. Just lower your posture, admit your mistake, and quickly let this matter pass!"
This teacher genuinely likes Xiao Youyou. Throughout the entire kindergarten, there are plenty of smart children, beautiful children, and cute children. But it seems that only Xiao Youyou has all these advantages combined!
This small kindergarten, though it belongs to the children, has its own "world." Because these children are not ordinary, even the teachers dare not be negligent. They know quite a bit about each child's family. Teacher Fang knew that Youyou's father was Ruan Cangsheng, the CEO of Guangda Group. Before Guangda's downfall, Ruan Cangsheng was a formidable figure. But now that Guangda has fallen, little Youyou and his family have lost their status and become the lowest-ranked children in the kindergarten, essentially targets for everyone else's frustrations!
Lin Meng was slightly taken aback, then smiled gratefully at Teacher Fang and nodded. She then used this opportunity to ask about Xiao Yuyu's life in kindergarten.
Of course, Teacher Fang was as usual, reporting good news and no bad news, saying everything was fine. Only Xiao Youyou got beaten today, and thinking about Mu Xinfeng who might not let it go, she worried. There had been a previous incident where a child had a conflict with Rong Hendal and had to transfer schools afterwards. Thinking about this, Teacher Fang was even more worried for Xiao Youyou, wondering if Xiao Youyou would also have to transfer. So she revealed some information.
"Youyou is pretty great, the best in the whole kindergarten. But all the kids here come from wealthy families and are used to getting their way. They're also very competitive. Youyou—"
"Teacher!" Little Youyou hummed in displeasure, her face scrunched up as she glared at Teacher Fang. Her black eyes even seemed to flash a warning. Lin Meng saw this and immediately swatted the little guy's bottom.
"
Shut up, now is not your time to speak!
"
The little guy pouted and shouted, "Mommy, let's go, I'm done!"
This clearly sounded like a rush to get people out, but it felt increasingly strange. Lin Meng vaguely knew that what he was worried about might be happening, so without hesitation, he pressed the little boy into his arms, facing him away from the teacher, and commanded in a harsh voice:
"You're not allowed to speak now, Youyou!"
Then she turned to the other teacher and smiled, "Teacher Fang, please continue!" She tried her best to let out a smile and be sincere.
Fang Lao smiled, inwardly sighing that this woman was truly beautiful and kind. Her heart relaxed, and she decided to tell him everything. "Children from wealthy families like this, at such a young age, many are already shrewd, categorizing people and making friends with some level of calculation. Most want to be on the same playing field. When Youyou first arrived, he was ostracized. I was quite worried at the time, wanting to help him get along with other children, but..."
"Mr. Fang let out an embarrassed dry laugh. 'Here are all young masters and ladies, I'm just a small teacher, I can't be too strict, I can only do my best. Fortunately, Youyou is capable, and over time, she managed to make some friends with her charm, but she still doesn't get along with many children, especially Rong Henda's group!'
Actually, the two of them were in different classes – one in a small class and the other in a large one. It wasn't easy for them to run into each other. But – "
"Mr. Fang is quite amused by this situation. 'Well, maybe today's kids are a bit too mature. I don't quite understand it myself. There's a little girl named Xiaomumu in my class, a real darling in kindergarten, loved by everyone, and she comes from a very influential family. Her grandfather is supposedly the head of the Rong family. She used to get along really well with Rong Hendal, they often played together. But after Youyou came along, Xiaomumu started following Youyou everywhere. This... might have made Rong Hendal unhappy, hehe, maybe kids are all possessive and feel like Youyou took away his friend, so the two ended up fighting. This fight was most likely because of this!"
Lin Meng was also taken aback, finding it rather absurd. Teacher Fang must have been exaggerating, weren't they just small kids How could there be such complicated relationships It was probably more due to the possessiveness that children naturally have.
But little Mumu...
So familiar, it seems like I've heard it somewhere!
After Fang Lao Shi, Ms. Fang, cautiously glanced at the door again, she quietly mentioned the matter of the previously transferred student to Lin Meng, giving her an idea that she should never confront Mu Xin Feng head-on. That family had a lot of influence and a good relationship with the principal, something all the kindergarten teachers knew!
Finally, Teacher Fang naturally had to remind Lin Meng not to tell anyone else what she had just said.
Lin Meng also knew there might be difficulties involved, so she naturally nodded in agreement. Her heart was filled with even more gratitude towards Teacher Fang, thinking that after this matter was over, she would definitely treat Teacher Fang to a good meal. Judging from Teacher Fang's tone, she truly loved Yuyou, otherwise she wouldn't risk offending Mu Xinfeng by telling her about this.
Lin Meng looked at the little boy, and naturally she felt angry in her heart, but more importantly, self-blame! Because Rong Ling had sent someone to take the little boy to Master Yan's place to learn martial arts, so she mostly picked him up from Master Yan's place at night. She hadn't really interacted with the kindergarten teachers much. She had met some teachers before and asked a few questions, but the teachers said everything was fine, so she didn't take it to heart. Because she always talked to her son at night, asking about what happened in kindergarten and about his martial arts training. Every time, the little boy would smile and say that everything was good, he was happy, and he wasn't tired at all.
Lin Meng recalled the time she helped the little one comb their hair. When she asked him those questions, he was facing away from her, his head bowed in response. Thinking about it now, the child's attitude back then was off. Everything, she had been negligent, as a mother, she hadn't fulfilled her responsibilities.
Little ones do this because they don't want to worry her!
But this cannot be an excuse, she failed, she simply failed!
Lin Meng didn't say anything more, holding the little kid's hand and walking toward the headmaster's office.
"Mommy..." the sensitive little one whispered anxiously, afraid that Mommy would be angry with him for hiding it.
Lin Meng patted the little guy's head. "Something's up, let's talk about it when we get home."
The little fellow let out an "Oh" and seemed a bit downcast.
When Lin Meng arrived, Mu Xinfeng was already there with the children. She didn't know how long they had been waiting.
As soon as Lin Meng arrived, Mu Xin Feng was not polite. "This matter, you have to give my family DADA an explanation!"
Impressiveness was her attitude and her capital.
Lin Meng led Xiao Youyou to sit on the sofa as well. She turned back to smile at Mu Xin Feng, but she remained calm and composed.
"Alright, let's first understand the whole situation thoroughly before figuring out who is right and wrong between the children!"
In fact, that's how it went down. Rong Hendda provoked Xiao Youyou first and punched him first, then Xiao Youyou fought back. The young boy was diligent in his martial arts training and had tolerated this strange Rong Hendda for a long time. When he threw a punch, he didn't hold back. Rong Hendda also practiced some martial arts, but he didn't expect Xiao Youyou to be quite skilled. Children are all unwilling to lose, so the fight became more and more intense. The two of them were tangled together and never separated. When the teacher arrived, the two boys were still fighting. The female teacher recalled that those two kids really hit hard. In the end, the two were separated, and they ended up looking just like when Lin Meng first saw them.
This matter, logically speaking, was provoked by Rong Hengda, he was the first to make a move, and in the end, it was Xiao Youyou who beat him. Basically, it should be his fault. But Rong Hengda's mother is no ordinary person, neither is his father. Mu Xin Feng couldn't possibly be someone who would allow others to bully her son. Naturally, she wouldn't back down.
“Even if my son Dada started it first, your child went too far. Look at the injuries on your child and then look at Dada’s injuries. Are they comparable! Your child was way too rough, it was malicious! You need to give us an explanation for this! Besides, my son Dada doesn’t usually hit people, something must have happened that made him fight back!”
Lin Meng thought this was really laughable. "Mrs. Mu, it's normal for children to fight. Besides, they are only minor injuries, and children recover quickly. In a few days, there won't even be a trace left on their bodies. Why make such a fuss! This matter is clear to everyone who witnessed it. Why not just drop it!"
Although Lin Meng nodded in response to Teacher Fang's request, she only offered her comfort. Lin Meng has always been a person with blood and courage. Asking her to submit to powerful forces is really difficult for her!
Mu Xin Feng thought to himself, "This is a penalty drink for not accepting the toast!" He then sneered.
“They are all just children, and adults shouldn't be too petty. However, this beating was a bit severe, and we can’t ignore it as adults. Lin Meng, I’m not saying this to be harsh, but you seem to have a tendency towards violence, which is quite problematic. You once smashed a basketball, causing Xiao MuMu to bleed from her nose, and now you've gone even further. You really need to be disciplined, child!”
The little guy glared with wide, puffed-up cheeks and grabbed Lin Meng's arm, a bit anxiously.
Lin Meng comforted the little boy with a smile, pulling him into her arms. She calmly replied to Mu Xin Feng, "Ms. Mu, you worry too much. I know my own child very well. He's fine, even better than many other children, so please don't bother yourself about it!"
Mu Xinfeng's face darkened. He stopped pretending to be polite now.
"Lin Meng, you are only 21 years old this year, right"
Lin Meng smiled faintly and nodded.
"At such a young age, it's no wonder you don't understand anything. I advise you, don't be so naive, and don't be so arrogant. When it's time to bow your head, you have to bow low. Otherwise, the price you pay will be much more severe!"
Lin Meng raised an eyebrow slightly, her tone still as unyielding and frustrating as ever. "Ms. Mu, is this... uh... a threat to me!"
Mu Xinfeng smiled without speaking.
Lin Meng lowered her head slightly.
Mu Xin Feng thought that Lin Meng had been enlightened, and immediately said: "Alright, let your child apologize to our Dada first!" Still in a condescending tone!
Lin Meng looked up and shook her head slightly.
"No way!"
She tilted her head and looked at the headmaster. “Now that everything is clear, can I take my child out”
The principal was embarrassed, it was the first time he had met such a soft yet firm parent!
Then, she turned her head to look at Mu Xin Feng!
Mu Xin Feng narrowed his eyes, his gaze turning cold.
Lin Meng stood up with a smile, took the little one's hand and walked out. After that, she didn't leave, she just stood aside, accompanying the little one, a slight smile on her lips.
Such a beautiful mommy attracted the attention of many children, she moved closer to Lin Meng's side without a trace, and even a few deliberately bumped into her. Lin Meng smiled and helped each child up one by one, whispering softly to them to be careful, and those children blushed, giggling and running away, then after a while, they ran back to her side again.
The little guy was a bit jealous, and his "Mommy" echoed through the air, loud and clear, one after another, as if afraid that no one would know who his mommy was. The other children looked at Xiaoyou with envy. The little guy felt inexplicably proud, blushing and leaning closer to Lin Meng's side.
Therefore, several children who usually didn't interact much with Xiao Youyou awkwardly came over and tried to find ways to talk to her. Once they started chatting, they immediately moved towards Lin Meng's side, calling out "Auntie" cheerfully, louder than anyone else.
Outside, everyone was laughing and having a good time, but the kindergarten principal's worries couldn't be eased.
Mu Xin Feng was a formidable person. On the surface, she appeared kind, generous, and elegant. However, privately, she wasn't someone with a broad mind. Just from what she said just now, it seemed like she held a grudge against Lin Meng.
The headmaster remembered that day, this mother-and-child pair had been personally delivered by Rong Ling. Under normal circumstances, the headmaster was also unwilling to make things difficult for this mother and child. After all, with Rong Ling escorting them personally, there was always something different about it. However, many days had passed, and Rong Ling did not appear again. Apart from their dazzling appearance and temperament, this mother-and-child pair had nothing else to compare with the other parents' children. Now that they had offended Mu Xin Feng, who happened to be a member of the Rong family, and was an uncle-niece relationship with Rong Ling, it was needless to say that Rong Ling would definitely stand on Mu Xin Feng's side. That's why the headmaster protected Mu Xin Feng without any hesitation.
So, she worried for the mother and child!
Perhaps this mommy is too young and innocent. She doesn't understand that sometimes it's not a matter of right or wrong, but who has more power. If she had apologized to Mu Xin Feng just now, and helped smooth things over with some words, maybe this could have been resolved. But this woman――
Oh, I didn't expect it. Such a gentle woman actually has such backbone!
You're so young!
The principal shook his head and sighed slightly!
I just hope that Mu Xinfeng doesn't go too far!
On the way back home that evening, Lin Meng naturally had a good talk with the little one. The little one was honest this time and told everything that happened at kindergarten these days. Lin Meng felt even more distressed after hearing it.
From the mouths of children, we can more clearly understand how dire the situation was at the time. When another child suddenly joined in, the others naturally paid attention. This new child was smarter than them, prettier, and even knew how to fight. In short, he seemed superior in every way. Naturally, the other children felt jealous and ostracized him.
Knowing that Xiao Youyou's father was nothing and wasn't even in the country, people were even less willing to interact with them. Xiao Youyou spent most of his time with children similar to him, "commoners," so to speak. But the little guy was playful and could have a great time on his own. He could be found at every playground in kindergarten, big and small. He played beautifully and even came up with new tricks. Slowly, things started to get better, and he made some new friends.
Well, the debts of love have suddenly come calling.
Even children love to be beautiful!
Xiaoyou inherited his father's charm. Even at a young age, he was already quite the handsome boy. Little girls were drawn to him, blushing and pulling treats out of their backpacks each day with an air of innocence, wanting to give them to him. He refused their offerings, and they would burst into tears. If he accepted, other girls would start causing trouble. This behavior soon angered some of the other boys, who would constantly pick on him.
Then, he let Xiaomumumu be discovered. A famous kindergarten in City B, it was considered royal-level, so Xiaomumumu naturally went to that kindergarten too. It's just that her family doted on her, so she attended school sporadically. When she bumped into Xiaoyouyou, Xiaomumumu became a studious child who loved going to school and ran after Xiaoyouyou every day.
Nurseries also have classes, divided by age into big class, middle class, and small class. Little MuMu is three years old this year, so she naturally stayed in the small class. However, even the small class has its distinctions. Generally, one teacher takes care of a dozen or so children. Thus, there are Sunflower Class, Rose Class, Snowflake Class, etc., basically each small class has a unique name.
Xiaomumumu and Xiaoyouyou weren't in the same class originally, but when they met, Xiaomumumu ran straight to Xiaoyouyou's ivory-colored kindergarten class and insisted on learning with him. Because of her special status, the teachers couldn't force Xiaomumumu back. They figured it was just a child seeking novelty and thought it would pass after some time. Having one more or fewer students in the class didn't really matter. The teacher had already informed Xiaoyouyou's parents about this, and they said to let the child be and as long as Xiaomumumu was happy, that was fine. As a result, Xiaomumumu became Xiaoyouyou's shadow, always by his side during class, games, or playtime. Xiaoyouyou tried giving him the cold shoulder, but it didn't work! He couldn't shake Xiaomumumu off!
This immediately made Rong Henda unhappy.
Although the family didn't explicitly say it, both parents had instructed Rong Hengduo and Rong Hendada to get along well with Xiaomumu. The implication was that they should treat her like a member of the family. Children these days aren't stupid. Even at a young age, they are exposed to various types of information and have played games like pretend house, so they naturally understand concepts like "little bride" and "arranged marriage." Regardless, Rong Hendada naturally assumed Xiaomumu belonged to both him and his brother. Previously, Xiaomumu was closest to the two of them. Why was she now chasing after some little brat
No!
Then, Rong Hengda started fighting with Xiao Youyou.
"I'm so annoyed!" The little boy frowned, sighing like a grown-up, and complained to Lin Meng. "I don't even want to pay attention to Mumumu, but she keeps coming up to me, and then…" The little boy lowered his head, and a blush appeared on his face. "And then she wants to sleep with me too! It's so annoying!"
Lin Meng actually wanted to smile, but it was rare to see her son so embarrassed. But after thinking about it, she held back the smile and deliberately put on a cold face, punishing the little guy to stand facing the wall in reflection.
What is called "mian bi si guo" is sitting against a wall with one's face facing the wall, completely still. Only when he feels he has reached that point can he turn around and get off the bed. This serves both as a punishment and a way to temper his character.
The little boy didn't feel resentful either, took off his shoes, and climbed onto the bed.
Lin Menglue tidied up for a few minutes and then climbed onto the bed, sitting down beside him.
"This time, Mommy was also wrong. It was Mommy's negligence that she didn't take good care of you, so Mommy will also punish herself by standing with you to reflect!"
The little boy giggled mischievously.
Lin Meng intentionally glared at the little guy. Seeing that the little guy tensed up and sat straight, she then sat down herself.
In her heart, she really couldn't be completely worry-free. As Rong Ling had said, letting the child enter the big wind seemed indeed very good, but could it really achieve the effect Rong Ling had said in the end! Then look at that Mu Xin Feng, who seemed a bit intimidating. She had some thoughts about taking the child away, but then she thought, this kind of avoidance was not a solution at all. So… what to do! Should she let Rong Ling take charge! But on what grounds! Besides, Mu Xin Feng hadn't made any moves yet, what reason would Rong Ling have to step in!
Lin Meng hesitated for a moment. But she could never have imagined that her momentary hesitation almost cost the little boy his life. At that time, she regretted it so much that she wished she could slap herself!
She really thought people were too simple, assuming that even if Mu Xinfeng made a move, he'd target her. She never expected him to actually attack a child! And in such a vicious way!
When she received a call from Teacher Fang, urging her to rush to Heqi Hospital immediately, the little boy was being taken to the operating room. Lin Meng saw the little boy lying there barely moving, covered in blood, his legs nearly giving way. Her heart felt like it was about to be ripped apart.
The little one has always been her precious child. She would feel heartache every time he was hurt, even a little bit. Now that he's been beaten up, it seems like half his life is gone, she's practically going crazy.
"Mommy..." The little guy was still a child after all. Seeing Lin Meng arrive, he found support and the tears he'd been holding back finally burst out. "Mommy, it hurts..."
The little guy opened his mouth, and blood poured out. His two rows of teeth, which had been perfectly aligned, now had gaps where two teeth were missing.
"Yoyo!" Lin Meng's heart ached, her eyes turned red, tears welled up and streamed down her face. She couldn't hold back the hot tears, they fell drop by drop onto the child's body.
"Baby, don't be afraid, Mommy is here. Mommy will blow on it for you, the pain will fly away, don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
"The patient needs to have surgery immediately, the situation is quite critical!" the doctor barked.
Lin Meng, tears streaming down her face, hurriedly nodded and repeatedly thanked the doctor. While comforting the little one not to be afraid, telling her she would stay by his side, she also pleaded to enter the operating room to accompany him through the whole process. However, the chief surgeon immediately reprimanded Lin Meng, saying that the operating room was not a place for ordinary people to enter, and then ordered the assistants and nurses below to hurriedly push the little one inside.
Lin Meng's heart was all on the little one, naturally hoping that he would be cured as soon as possible. Looking at the mess of blood on the little one, she wasn't a doctor and didn't know where he was injured. But since the doctor said it was so serious, her heart sank straight down. After the doctor said that, she didn't dare to argue anymore, and she didn't pester the doctor about who to follow. The most important thing was that the doctor said time was running out and told her not to delay him saving lives.
The doctor explained the boy's condition rather seriously, leaving Lin Meng feeling utterly lost. Gritting her teeth, she paced nervously outside the operating room like a headless fly for several circles before remembering to call Rong Ling. Her eyes were fixed intently on the surgical door, wishing she could just barge in.
Before the phone was answered, the elevator doors opened and more patients were brought in, several wearing surgical scrubs.
A man who looked to be in his forties raised his voice and asked, frowning, “Who is using operating room number three!”
A nurse beside her replied, “Dr. Zhang is using it right now. A child with heavy bleeding just came in and is being rushed to the emergency room!”
"Doctor Zhang!" The doctor raised his voice, "Which Zhang! Don't you know I need Operating Room Number Three!"
"He's a doctor, this situation is quite urgent, so he just used it!"
"Him!" The doctor's face immediately darkened. "Can he do it! He's only been the main surgeon for less than half a month, and now he's handling a child with severe bleeding! Who let him take this case! Was it signed off by the chief Did the parents agree!"
Lin Meng's hand holding the phone trembled. Her already pale face instantly turned even whiter. What did "the main surgeon only had half a month of experience" mean Wasn't that doctor unqualified
"Doctor... Doctor!" She somehow found herself suddenly running to the doctor's face, frantically asking, "I'm the child's parent, I... I received a phone call and rushed over. Then the doctor said they needed surgery and took the child away. I... I don't know anything, I... Is my child alright I... I wanted to go in, but the doctor said no. Doctor, is everything alright!"
The doctor immediately tightened his face. "Surgical consent form, have you signed it!"
Lin Meng shook her head, two lines of tears sliding down rapidly.
Then the doctor frowned, “I’ll take a look!”
"Just shove aside and go to Operating Room Number 3," Lin Meng urged, rushing in. But she was stopped at the door by someone before she could enter.
Lin Meng was terrified at this moment. She felt her right eyelid twitching incessantly, her heart pounding in her chest. She struggled to enter, and then heard a roar coming from inside.
"Without a consent form from the family, what kind of surgery are you performing! ... What if something goes wrong Who will take responsibility! ... This child's condition is beyond your capabilities. Who let you take on this task!"
Another young voice immediately piped up. "Qi Mingyuan, are you looking down on me! I tell you, I'm responsible for my patients, this is what the director agreed to. If you want to cause trouble, go find the director, don't waste my time here. If something happens to this child, can you take responsibility for me!"
Lin Meng, upon hearing "This child's situation is beyond your capabilities," was shaken to the core. She didn't know where the strength came from, but she suddenly pushed the female nurse aside and rushed in. Seeing the young boy on the bed, she pounced forward like a mother bear protecting her cub, covering him with her body and crying out, "I don't want you to operate on him! I object to the surgery! Bring me another doctor, bring me another doctor!"
She stared at the doctor named Zhang Yichen, her eyes bloodshot. She didn't know what was going on, but her heart pounded wildly, warning her, danger, great danger!
At this moment, a roar finally came from the phone: "Lin Meng!"
It was Rong Ling's phone call, because Lin Meng had been silent for a long time. The man pretended to be deep and didn't speak first, just waiting for her to say something. However, the noises coming from the other end were obviously wrong, so he couldn't help but shout. His voice was powerful enough that even without a speaker, Lin Meng could hear it.
Just like a lost ship at sea finally found its lighthouse, Lin Meng was invigorated. Then, the power of maternal love made her brain run efficiently and her thoughts became unusually clear.
Her hand, which had been unconsciously clutching the phone in her grip for so long, was now slick with sweat.
Lin Meng had a cold face, although there were always tears streaming down her cheeks, her voice was unusually clear and fast.
"Rong Ling, I'm at Qi Yi Hospital now. Youyou was beaten and needs surgery. The doctor said the situation is very critical. I don't care what method you use, immediately find the safest and most reliable doctor for Youyou! Also, no matter where you are now, come to me as soon as possible. I need to see you. Rong Ling, I'm afraid, I'm so scared right now, please come quickly..."
Lin Meng started to cry.
Over there, Rong Ling stopped Lin Meng from AFKing and quickly made a few calls. Soon, a profusely sweating dean rushed over, followed by several people in surgical gowns.
Who is Lin Meng! Who is Lin Chengyou!
Lin Meng immediately agreed. Over there, Rong Ling said that the person he had found had arrived and asked Lin Meng not to worry, that nothing would happen. He dared to guarantee it, even if Death came, he could get the child back for her.
Lin Meng responded with an "Mmm" and, following Rong Ling's instructions, handed her phone to the dean. The dean respectfully replied, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then returned the phone to Lin Meng.
Immediately, Xiaoyou was transferred to operating room No. 6. All medical personnel who had not yet participated in the surgery were isolated. Lin Meng was also helped by a nurse into a protective suit, disinfected, and followed into the operating room.
From beginning to end, Rong Ling's phone calls never stopped. He was always there, soothing her in a low voice, telling her not to worry, that he was on his way and heading this way. Moreover, the outstanding doctor under Shi Yu, the second child who opened the hospital, was also trying to come here!
Lin Meng held her phone, only able to hum in response, not a single word coming out. She listened intently to Rong Ling's magnetic voice, like waves crashing on the shore, while her eyes were fixed on the operating table.
Over there, several doctors suddenly looked strange. Lin Meng couldn't sit still with worry and jumped up abruptly, asking anxiously, "What's wrong!"
Her lips trembled so badly, she could barely stand. Those poor tears just streamed down her face. Could it be that her son was beyond saving!
She was so frightened she almost fainted!
Several doctors did not dare to reply, they only hesitated and looked at the director. The director's face darkened, he waved his hand, "Don't interfere, just do your own job!"
Several doctors instantly relaxed. The head physician, however, wore a grim expression as he looked at the previous diagnosis, his brows furrowing in deep concern.
Lin Meng tiptoed closer, not daring to disturb too much. She waited for the director to finish writing the diagnosis before she nervously asked, "My child...is he okay!"
Her voice was so soft, as if afraid to disturb anything, yet tears streamed down her face from those obsidian-like eyes. A silent and mournful sorrow that evoked pity and guilt.
The director immediately broke into a smile and comforted her: "Your child is safe, don't worry, nothing happened!"
Lin Meng let out a sigh of relief, mumbling and rambling his thanks to the headmaster, leaving him quite embarrassed. The headmaster felt even more guilty and ashamed!
Originally, there wasn't much to worry about with this child, and the hospital staff could breathe a sigh of relief. However, since the child truly wasn't seriously injured, the hospital staff became anxious again. This time, luckily Rong Ling had called earlier, issued a warning, and demanded that the hospital do everything they could; if the hospital had just let things happen, and waited until Rong Ling made trouble afterwards, then --
The dean's body trembled, and despite being in a temperature-controlled operating room, he shivered.
He simply couldn't imagine the consequences!
That instant, it was truly awful!
Who gave him the right!
This is not healing the sick and saving lives, this is murder! It was obvious that Rong Ling had brought someone here to pay respects as a disciple. Someone who could make Rong Ling this solemn and respectful must not be an ordinary person; they were definitely...
