"A few days ago, my fiancée and I went abroad and saw Miss Gu performing at Ms. Lillian's recital. You must be proud to have such an outstanding child, right?"
"Yeah...yeah." Rong Shan didn't look at Ji Huaiyu, he kept picking at his nails with his hands, and a very forced smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I have had some cooperation with Mr. Gu recently. Although Mr. Gu is a doctor by profession, he is also an excellent businessman."
"My husband...has always been like this. He is an excellent man who can do everything well." Rong Shan became more and more anxious and uneasy. She pulled her sleeves with her hands, as if to cover something.
"Mr. Ji, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I won't talk more." Rong Shan grabbed his bag and left.
"Miss Rong, do you know Chen Xi?" Ji Huaiyu sat calmly.
As expected, when he heard the name, Rong Shan froze on the spot, digging into his bag with his fingers.
"Mr. Ji is joking, I...how do I know Miss Chen Xi?" Rong Shan spilled the beans before he could react.
"Oh?" Ji Huaiyu stood up and looked down at her with a very oppressive feeling.
Rong Shan lowered his head and his hands trembled slightly.
"Miss Rong, let me get straight to the point. How much do you know about Miss Chen Xi?"
"I...I don't know anything." Rong Shan took two steps back, his eyes wandering, and hesitantly replied.
Ji Huaiyu looked at her, but instead of pressing the question, he changed the subject.
"Your husband... often domestically abuses you, right?" Although he was asking, his tone was extremely certain.
Rong Shan's pupils narrowed suddenly. She lowered her head, pulled her hair, and tugged at her sleeves, feeling terrified.
"No, my husband is very good to me..."
Seeing that Rong Shan was about to start talking again, Ji Huaiyu interrupted her first.
"Miss Chen Xi was famous throughout Beijing back then, and you were also the object of envy. Now look at yourself, are you still as high-spirited as you were back then?"
As he spoke, Ji Huaiyu pressed her shoulders and forced her to look at him.
"Mrs. Gu, do you want to escape? As long as you tell me everything, I can help you."
"Why should I trust you?"
"Ji..." Rong Shan looked shocked.
"You know, Ji is more than just a surname." Ji Huaiyu was very calm, with an aura that was undeniable.
Rong Shan looked at Ji Huaiyu and gradually calmed down.
"I……"
Just as Rong Shan was about to speak, the bodyguard knocked on the door and walked in.
"BOSS, he's here."
Ji Huaiyu nodded, "At three o'clock tomorrow afternoon, Mr. Rong will let you go back."
Rong Shan was stunned, "My dad? My dad is willing to see me?"
Rong Shan grabbed Ji Huaiyu's arm. Ji Huaiyu frowned, but despite his doubts, he pushed her hand away.
"How come Mr. Rong doesn't want to see you?"
Rong Shan was speechless for a while.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Rong Shan twitched suddenly, looking frightened.
"Madam, I'm here to take you back." The man wore a gentleman's hat and his tone was gentle, but to Rong Shan, it sounded like a devil's whisper.
"Yeah." She lowered her head and spoke softly.
The man stretched out his hand, and Rong Shan took his arm obediently. In the eyes of outsiders, the two of them behaved intimately and very sweetly.
"Did you see anyone today?"
"No, I listened to your words and walked around inside without going out. I knew you were coming, so I waited for you inside." Rong Shan rested his head on his shoulder.
"real?"
"But today I met an old friend, but I haven't been out for so long that I didn't even recognize him."
As expected, the man stopped asking.
"People are like this, cold and selfish. Only I will think of you, remember you and love you all the time." The man kissed her forehead, Rong Shan lowered his eyebrows and looked obedient. appearance.
"You leave early and come back late recently. Did something happen at the company?" Rong Shan asked casually in the car.
"No, just stay home and be a good wife. Don't worry about these things. I will take care of them."
"I mean, after all, I graduated from a prestigious school, maybe I can... hiss!"
Before Rong Shan finished speaking, the man choked him. The man's face was ruthless, and he had long since lost the tenderness he had just shown. Her face gradually turned red, and she slapped the man's hand frantically.
"Gu...old...husband...I was wrong...I was wrong..." She squeezed out these words from her mouth with difficulty.
Hearing this, Gu Shen let go of his hand.
Rong Shan covered his neck and coughed violently. Gu Shen wanted to help her, but Rong Shan subconsciously avoided it. Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Rong Shan suppressed the discomfort in his neck and tried his best to smile.
Only then did Gu Shen smile at her with satisfaction.
"By the way, the old man is sick."
"What? My dad? How is he?" Gu Shen took away all her contact devices, and her life was completely closed. When she heard the news that her father was ill, she was in a state of panic.
"Nothing's wrong. He's been discharged from the hospital. I went to visit him. He finally relented and agreed to see you this time. Are you happy?" Gu Shen put his arm around her shoulders and kissed her.
"Tomorrow afternoon, I will take you back."
There was a hint of viciousness in his eyes. These old immortals had so many evil intentions, yet they actually had a hand in reserve!
Rong Shan didn't notice the change in his expression, but thought of what Ji Huaiyu just said. She pursed her lips. It was summer, but her hands were as cold as ice.
The next day, Gu Shen indeed sent her to Rongzhai. Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar mansion in front of him, Rong Shan's nose felt sore and his eyes were hot.
"My dear, you understand what you should say and what you shouldn't say, right?" Gu Shen sat in the car and arranged her clothes affectionately.
Rong Shan lowered his head, concealed his expression, and nodded timidly.
"Good boy, your parents had objections to me taking over the Rong family, so I didn't go in. They thought I was a poor boy and couldn't stand up to the public. Now that he's old, I won't make him angry. "
"Well, I'm sorry for you, husband." Rong Shan hugged him.
"They haven't let you go home for years, and they don't want to see you. They blame me for not having the ability to let them recognize me. I can only watch you crying alone in the corner at night." Gu Shen looked sad and ignored her. s hair.
"Maybe he has thought about it now and is sick again. It seems that they still feel sorry for you after all. No matter what they did to us before, as an only child, you should go back and see them."
"Husband, my parents did this to you, and you still don't care about the past, thank you." Rong Shan buried her head in his arms.
"Your parents have raised you so well. It's normal for them to look down on a poor boy like me. If Chuanxi looks for a boyfriend in the future, I will definitely do the same thing as your parents. I can understand."
What Gu Shen said was extremely considerate. In the past, Rong Shan believed in this, but now, she has some reservations about it.
"Okay, let's go." Gu Shen patted her shoulder.
"Well, wait until I come back." Rong Shan looked reluctant, which greatly benefited Gu Shen.
The two were sticky for a while, and then Rong Shan got out of the car. Only when Gu Shen's car left did she put the smile on her face away. Her heart was shaking as she held the doorknob.
How are your parents doing now? Could it be that, as Gu Shen said, she was repaying him for insisting on marrying him?
Before the doorknob was pressed, the door was already opened inside.
Rong Shan was caught off guard and met the old lady with white hair. Rong Shan couldn't believe it at first. Her hands were trembling, but when she saw the old man's eyes turning red, she couldn't hold back anymore.
She hugged the old man, and tears fell down before she could say anything.
"Mom... I miss you so much, Mom." She murmured, calling over and over again the name she had called countless times in her dream, but never received a response.
