Bai Fangjing took out her mobile phone and made a call, and quickly said: "Xiaoxin has turned off her phone."
Rong Shizhang said solemnly: "Which number did you call? Both Canada and Night City are calling. If you can't get through, send her a text message to tell her. Contact me immediately after turning on the phone."
Bai Fangjing continued to make calls with her mobile phone, and Luo Xiangdong remained silent. The situation was really embarrassing.
"She didn't get through either number, so I sent her a text message."
Bai Fangjing's voice fell. Rong Shizhang sighed. Then he picked up the wine glass in front of him, looked at me and Luo Xiangdong, and said, "Xiangdong, Zijin, I will definitely give you two an explanation for this matter. This glass of wine is my companionship for you on Rong Xin's behalf."
I smiled lightly and said: "It's okay..."
Luo Xiangdong also said: "Brother Shizhang. You know I told you this. I didn't ask you to apologize."
Rong Shizhang also smiled, and then said: "I know, but things are always right and wrong. If Rong Xin did something wrong, I, as a father, will apologize to you on her behalf. As it should be."
Naturally, Luo Xiangdong and I would not accept this glass of wine.
Luo Xiangdong said: "Brother Shizhang. You are making things difficult for me and Zijin. You are my eldest brother. I have always respected you, so when I encounter difficulties, I always have to ask you what to do, not to mention Rong Rong. Xin is your daughter. Even I, as an uncle, can't educate her through you."
Rong Shizhang said: "Xiang Dong, you are right. Rong Xin's mother passed away early. I was always afraid that she would feel bad, so I have pampered her and pampered her for so many years. I didn't expect to let her come here. , I’ve caused you so much trouble. I have to go see your dad later, I’m sorry.”
Luo Xiangdong smiled lightly and said, "My dad still turned towards Rong Xin and even beat me to protect her."
A person like Luo Xiangdong has a high reputation. Although he smiled and talked about being beaten, anyone around him could hear the complaint between the lines. Rong Shizhang was even more embarrassed and apologized to Luo Xiangdong again and again.
There was no contact with Rong Xin until the meal.
Rong Shizhang said to Luo Xiangdong: "Xiangdong, don't worry, you and Zijin, I will find that girl Rong Xin as soon as possible and give you two an explanation."
Luo Xiangdong smiled lightly and said: "Explaining things is a trivial matter. The key is to find someone first, so that you and Sister Fangjing won't have to worry."
Bai Fangjing also held my hand and said softly: "Zijin, I'm so sorry for causing you trouble."
Although these two couples are not married yet, their behavior styles are exactly the same. Luo Xiangdong and I can't even let go if we lose all our dignity.
After we separated at the entrance of the hotel, Luo Xiangdong and I sat in the car. I fastened my seat belt and said, "If you say that today, they will have to go home to find your dad. Will your dad scold you again?"
Luo Xiangdong held the steering wheel and replied nonchalantly: "Sooner or later, we have to speak out. Rather than letting my dad lose face, it's better for me to speak out."
I said, "We don't have any evidence right now that Rong Xin did it. She has such a tough mouth. Unless you press her there, she won't say anything."
Luo Xiangdong said: "Whether she did anything or not is secondary now. The main thing is to find a way to get her back to Canada so that she doesn't have to worry about hanging around in front of our eyes."
I said, "If Rong Xin insists that it's not her, and she bites back and says that I cheated her, what should I do?"
Luo Xiangdong glanced at me sideways, raised the corners of his lips, and said with a faint smile: "You have me, let me see who dares to do anything to you."
Facing Luo Xiangdong's handsome face, I just felt my blood boiling all over. I won’t refuse anything from Luo Zhenye to the Rong family.
Luo Xiangdong is right, as long as he is by my side, I have nothing to fear.
But having said that, after returning home, Luo Xiangdong still called Wei Zheng, Zheng Zeyu and Qin Yichuan. Everyone wasted no time trying to figure out whether they could find evidence that Rong Xin cheated me. If this evidence is obtained, then the Rong family will have absolutely nothing to say. Rong Xin will go out and apologize to me. It is better for me to raise my head openly in front of the Luo family, otherwise I will always feel as if I have done something. It's like it's a shame.
I only turned off my cell phone for one day, because I was afraid that my mother would not be able to find anyone to call and worry about it. On the fifth day after this incident, my mother called me and asked about the video. I knew that the source of the video had long since disappeared, so I refused to acknowledge it.
Luo Xiangdong even personally called my mother to explain that it was all hearsay, so don't believe it.
Luo Xiangdong came out to prove it, and my mother felt relieved.
After hanging up the phone, I said to Luo Xiangdong: "Let's settle this matter quickly. I don't need to get to the bottom of it, and I don't need her to apologize to me. I just want Rong Xin to disappear in front of my eyes."
I have never been so annoyed or even afraid of a woman, but Rong Xin makes me feel creepy. Her jealousy is beyond that of an ordinary woman, and she will try to kill people without caring about what I will do in the future. Thinking about such a person makes me feel terrified.
The day after meeting Rong Shizhang and Bai Fangjing, Luo Xiangdong told me: "Rong Shizhang called me just now and asked us to meet at the Jinli Hotel tomorrow night."
I asked: "So soon? Have you found Rong Xin?"
Luo Xiangdong said: "It didn't say anything on the phone. It's probably where she could have run. That is, she knew her father was coming to Night City and was so scared that she hid."
I feel a little uneasy, because I know Rong Xin's temper very well, and he is also a talkative talker. If we start a quarrel in front of Rong's family tomorrow, even if I am justified, it will be a loss of face.
Luo Xiangdong saw what I was thinking, and he said aloud: "Don't be afraid of her, we are victims, and I will not let you be wronged."
I also wanted to solve this problem as soon as possible, so I went to the Jinli Hotel with Luo Xiangdong as scheduled the next night. But I didn't expect that not only Rong Shizhang and Bai Fangjing were there, but Luo Zhenye and Guan Lin were also invited.
When Luo Xiangdong and I pushed the door in, the scene in front of us really shocked me.
Luo Zhenye glanced at Luo Xiangdong and me, and the smile on his face faded, showing that he was unhappy.
Rong Shizhang smiled and said: "Xiangdong and Zijin are here, come and sit down."
Luo Xiangdong called: "Dad, Mom."
I also had the courage to call out: "Uncle, auntie."
Guan Lin smiled and nodded at me. Luo Zhenye ignored me and Luo Xiangdong.
After all six of us sat down at the table, Rong Shizhang said to Bai Fangjing next to him: "Call Rong Xin. What's going on? Even the elders have arrived and she hasn't arrived yet."
Bai Fangjing nodded politely to Luo Zhenye and Guan Lin, then got up and went outside to make a phone call.
The five of us were left sitting at the dinner table. In addition to Rong Shizhang talking to Luo Zhenye and Guan Lin, he also occasionally chatted with Luo Xiangdong. I was the only one in the whole room who tried to curl up the corners of my lips. It would be no exaggeration to say that I was on pins and needles.
Fortunately, Luo Xiangdong was holding my hand under the table. I smiled at him and he gave me an indulgent look in return.
Not long after, Bai Fangjing came in from outside. Rong Shizhang looked at her and said, "Have you gotten through it?"
"It's OK. Xiaoxin said that she was on her way here, but something delayed her."
Rong Shizhang frowned and said, "It's getting more and more outrageous. She is the youngest in the whole room, and yet she makes everyone wait for her."
After saying that, he looked at Luo Zhenye again and said with an apologetic face: "Uncle Luo, I really caused you trouble."
Luo Zhenye smiled and waved: "It's okay, I'm just a kid."
Rong Shizhang said: "If I hadn't had a meal with Xiangdong two days ago, I really wouldn't have known that Rong Xin had caused so many troubles here in Ye City. When she comes over later, she must be exposed in public Apologize to everyone.”
Luo Zhenye said: "Shizhang, these are just polite words. Do we still need to speak the same language?"
Rong Shizhang nodded helplessly: "Uncle Luo, you also dote on Rong Xin. Regardless of her age, she makes the whole family uneasy."
Luo Zhenye said: "I didn't take good care of Rong Xin. Don't take it to heart."
Reading between the lines of the conversation between Luo Zhenye and Rong Shizhang, the long-standing friendship between the two families is clearly revealed. I feel more and more uneasy. I don't know what kind of bloody storm will happen when Rong Xin comes over.
After about ten minutes, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and the person who pushed the door in after him was Rong Xin.
I don't know if it was because of the black mink fur collared long trench coat that made her look pale. And she obviously didn't put on much makeup today. Compared to the bright outfit I saw her in before, she looked more like she had just come back from the crematorium.
His eyes swept across all of our faces, and finally settled on Luo Zhenye and Guan Lin. Rong Xin raised the corners of her lips, her smile was stiff and laborious, and she called out: "Grandpa Luo, grandma."
Luo Zhenye smiled and said, "Rong Xin is here, come and sit."
As Rong Xin walked forward, she called out again: "Dad, Aunt Bai."
Rong Shizhang said: "Didn't you see your brother-in-law and Miss Liang?"
Rong Xin lightly glanced at my and Luo Xiangdong's faces, and reluctantly called out: "Uncle... Miss Liang."
Rong Xin actually called me Miss Liang, and I couldn't help but look at her twice. Is this the sun rising in the west, or is she holding something bad in her heart
Except for Luo Xiangdong and I who were cold to her at the table, Rong Shizhang made it clear for everyone to see, and Luo Zhenye and Guan Lin naturally had to smile at Rong Xin.
As for Bai Fangjing, I guess it is not easy for her to be Rong Xin's stepmother at such a young age. She has not been able to enter the family for five years because of Rong Xin. She was very kind to Rong Xin, smiling and asking questions, but Rong Xin was lukewarm towards her.
After Rong Xin arrives, the banquet can be held. Everyone knows that this meal is the Hongmen Banquet. Rong Xin was sitting across from me. From the corner of my eye, I noticed that she hadn't spoken much, and her whole aura was strange.
During the dinner, Rong Shizhang said: "This girl is getting more and more disobedient now. She just called me back this afternoon, and she didn't even see her face before. Tell me, where did you go?"
Rong Xin paused while holding the chopsticks and said nothing.
