Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 747 - 29: Miss Tang Is Not as Promiscuous as Rumored [Part 2]
Geng Yi’s eyes flickered as he walked toward Tang Yige and Rong Rui.
Tang Yige caught sight of Geng Yi approaching and lifted her head to look at him.
Geng Yi got closer and noticed Tang Yige’s slightly swollen lips and eyes, causing his brow to twitch twice.
"Mr. Geng, thank you for taking care of Little Rui for me," Yige said.
Geng Yi’s eyes unconsciously glanced at Yige’s lips, with a sheepish smile, "It was no trouble at all."
Tang Yige could feel his gaze lingering on her lips, but she maintained her composure and said to him, "Mr. Geng, goodbye."
"...Oh, goodbye," Geng Yi said, somewhat dazed.
Tang Yige then carried Rong Rui and walked toward the hotel exit.
Geng Yi watched Tang Yige and Rong Rui pass him by and leave the restaurant, only then suddenly realizing he had forgotten something.
But chasing after them now to ask was clearly inappropriate.
Geng Yi stood there for a while before turning toward the elevator.
...
Suite 903.
When Geng Yi arrived, the door to the suite was not closed, so he walked in without hesitation.
Rong Sinan was sitting back on the sofa, eyelids lowered, playing with a black phone in his clearly defined palm, with a calm, indifferent expression that showed no signs of anything unusual.
Such a Rong Sinan, before today, would have conjured up words like aloof and unworldly in Geng Yi’s mind.
However, just seeing Tang Yige’s cracked lips downstairs and the redness lingering in her eyes, now looking at Rong Sinan like this.
Geng Yi’s mind could only think of four words — "wolf in sheep’s clothing!"
"Boss, I feel like I’ve misunderstood someone all along," Geng Yi suddenly sat across from Rong Sinan and said out of nowhere.
Rong Sinan lifted his gaze to glance at him, saying nothing.
Geng Yi pursed his lips, maintaining a serious demeanor, "I think, Miss Tang is not as, well, how should I say, promiscuous as rumors suggest."
Promiscuous?
Only then did Rong Sinan slightly furrow his brow, squinting coldly at Geng Yi, "If you can’t speak properly, shut up!"
"..." Geng Yi stared oddly at Rong Sinan, "Come on, boss, you’re not sticking to the script, you know?"
"Get lost!" Rong Sinan said.
Oh come on!
Is this still the elegant and gentlemanly Rong Sinan he knew?
How come he saw the shadow of his younger brother Rong Mochen in him?
Could it be...
He’s possessed by his younger brother now?
Geng Yi stared intently at Rong Sinan.
His gaze felt like he was looking at a monkey in the zoo.
Rong Sinan’s face darkened slightly, "Had enough of staring?"
Uh...
Geng Yi awkwardly averted his gaze, coughing falsely, "Boss, tell me, do you really dislike Miss Tang, or do you like her?"
Rong Sinan’s eyes narrowed deeply, "What do you think?"
"...Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" Geng Yi cautiously asked.
"Say both," Rong Sinan paused, "If you get it right, your salary stays. If wrong, pack up and go back to work in Z City tomorrow!"
"...Can I choose not to say anything?" Geng Yi wiped sweat from his forehead.
Shouldn’t have brought this up!
"What do you think?" Rong Sinan smiled at him.
Geng Yi took a breath and waved his hand at Rong Sinan, "Enough, from now on, don’t smile at me. Every time you do, the hair on my back stands up. Boss, you’re not the boss I used to know anymore."
Rong Sinan chuckled slightly, looking at him without speaking.
Geng Yi licked his lower lip and said, "Boss, should I really say it?"
Rong Sinan lifted his chin, indicating he could speak.
Geng Yi thought for a moment before speaking, "I think there’s both love and hate. But, love is the main thing. The hate is mostly because the love is unattainable!"
Rong Sinan looked at Geng Yi, the slight arc at his mouth faintly sinking down.
Geng Yi had intentionally watched Rong Sinan’s expression while speaking, so he noticed the subtle change at the corner of his lips.
Eyes brightened slightly, Geng Yi felt secretly proud.
Looks like he got it right!
"Boss, hehe," Geng Yi smiled with his eyes, looking at Rong Sinan, seeking approval, "Did I say it right?"
Rong Sinan raised an eyebrow slightly, glanced at Geng Yi, got up from the sofa, and walked towards the bedroom.
Geng Yi was stunned, mechanically turning his neck to stare at Rong Sinan’s back.
Bang--
The bedroom door closed mercilessly in front of him.
Geng Yi’s mouth twitched slightly, what does that mean?
Did he guess right or not?
Geng Yi ruffled his hair, feeling frustrated.
Just leave, but leave such a suspense! That’s really not fair!
...
After leaving the hotel, Tang Yige took Rong Rui to a restaurant for lunch.
Then she drove back to their rented place.
On the way, Tang Yige seemed no different from before, as if she hadn’t gone to see Rong Sinan at all.
When they returned to the rented place, it was already close to four in the afternoon.
Rong Rui was probably a bit tired, as he immediately flopped onto the sofa without moving once they got home.
When Tang Yige brought over a freshly squeezed juice for him, he was already fast asleep on the sofa.
Tang Yige had no choice but to put down the juice, pick him up from the sofa, and carry him upstairs.
Entering the bedroom, she carefully placed Rong Rui on the big bed, pulled the quilt over him, and took the duckbill cap off his little head, placing it on the bedside table.
Sitting by the side of the bed for a while, Yige leaned over, kissed his brow, and left the bedroom.
...
As Yige came down from upstairs, she heard a phone ringing from her bag.
Her steps halted abruptly.
Yige frowned tightly.
Intuition.
This call must be from Zhou Xueran again.
At this time, it should already be late night back home.
Though Yige felt somewhat resistant, she still walked over, sat on the sofa, and took the phone out from her bag.
Glancing at the phone screen, she saw it was indeed a call from Zhou Xueran.
Yige felt her heart sink a little.
She took a few deep breaths and finally answered the call.
"Yige, how is it, Yige? Did you find Sinan? Did you tell him about your dad? What did he say? Is he willing to help? Also, your sister is still stuck at the airport, did you tell Sinan? Yige..."
"Mom, you’re asking so many questions at once, which one should I answer first?"
Yige’s voice was very tired, even notably hoarse.
But Zhou Xueran didn’t notice, continuing urgently, "Okay, okay, Mom will ask one at a time. Yige, did you meet Sinan?"
"...Yes." Yige leaned her head against the edge of the sofa, her eyes blankly staring at the ceiling.
"Did you tell him about your dad?"
"I did."
Yige gently closed her eyes.
"So what did Sinan say? Is he willing to help? After all, your dad is his father-in-law. Our two families are relatives." Zhou Xueran said.
"Do you even know why my dad was taken to the police station?" Tang Yige laughed bitterly.
Relatives? Does anyone in the Rong family even consider them relatives now?
Tang Ruan did such things, the Rong family had long since refused to accept her.
Will they still recognize them as relatives?
If they did, with her dad being in the police station for so long, even putting Rong Mochen aside, surely Rong Zhengfeng and Fang Jingyi knew, right? But did they do anything?
"...What else could it be, if not for your dad doing drugs..."
"Mom, can we stop deceiving ourselves?" Tang Yige said helplessly.
Zhou Xueran was silent for a while before speaking again, her voice completely hoarse, "Yige, how can the Rong family be so thorough, so heartless? Your sister is at least their rightful daughter-in-law! How could they treat us this way?"
Tang Yige inhaled, "Mom, you should ask your good daughter what she’s done, rather than questioning the Rong family without understanding anything, claiming they’re unfair, heartless."
"...Yige, what do you mean? Clearly, it’s the Rong family who are unrighteous and unjust! You don’t know these years since you’re abroad. Your sister miscarried before, leading to lifelong infertility. Once the Rong family learned she couldn’t bear children, they immediately changed their attitude, especially her mother-in-law Fang Jingyi. She’s been trying every way to humiliate your sister these years, forcing her to divorce Sinan! If Sinan hadn’t been good to your sister and refused to divorce, she would’ve endured and left the Rong family long ago!"
Zhou Xueran said resentfully.
"These are all things Tang Ruan told you, right? "Tang Yige pinched the bridge of her nose and laughed, her throat feeling tight, "Mom, you probably don’t know, right? Your good daughter Tang Ruan’s major in college was acting! It’s a pity she didn’t become an actress, otherwise, she could’ve made it to Hollywood or even beyond!"
"..."
