ng reached out and rubbed his temples lightly, thinking to himself, "Today might be the day I offend everyone I need to.""Chengyang, Youyouxia, I absolutely have to stay by his side. Besides, he's my...Chapter name: 185

Lin Meng went to kindergarten to pick up her child and then took the little one shopping. The things in the refrigerator needed to be replenished. Vegetables, fish, and other fresh ingredients were bought on that day. Children are energetic and playful, so the little one also liked to follow Lin Meng around the supermarket.

When the two people came out of the supermarket, they were already carrying quite a lot. Lin Meng had never owned a car and usually took the bus or taxis. Today she had more things to carry, so she started looking around for a taxi. Before she could hail one, a Land Rover that seemed familiar drove up first. The driver opened the door without a word of greeting and commanded...

"Come up!"

Lin Meng pouted, clearly unwilling. She was still angry and wouldn't so easily board this man's ship again!

Rong Ling raised an eyebrow. "Want me to go down and carry you up!" It was obviously a threat!

She pouted her small mouth, letting out a little hum from her nose. Instead of getting into the front car door Rong Ling had already opened for her, she went and opened the back car door herself, letting the little guy get in first, before she got in carrying the things she had bought.

Rong Ling didn't make much of a sound. He went over and closed the front door himself, but the slam was a little louder than usual, as if it had been struck out of anger.

The little guy is a child, and some aspects are naturally a bit slow. Seeing Rong Ling, he was still quite excited. His big eyes sparkled as he looked at Rong Ling, happily calling out: "Uncle Rong!"

Rong Ling hummed in response, then flung the car door open and sped away.

"Where are you going!"

Lin Meng let out a soft sigh.

Rong Ling didn't answer, and Lin Meng hummed again. Such an obvious tantrum, the little one couldn't possibly not notice it. He turned his head to look at his beloved mommy and frowned.

"Mommy, what's wrong!"

Lin Meng rubbed the little one's head and smiled, without responding.

The little boy blinked and snuggled closer to his mommy. Lin Meng also couldn't figure out what this man was up to. Actually, when she got angry just now, shouting at him to die was just a moment of anger. She wasn't a toy doll, someone could toss her around without any temper! But after venting her anger, the feeling naturally faded. She wasn't someone who easily held grudges against others, and this man... was so special. Thinking back to how coldly he threatened her before, forbidding her from not answering his calls, saying that if she did, she would be responsible for the consequences, a little bit of fear crept into her. So, she really wanted to avoid him, but who knew, it turned out so coincidentally that she ran into him!

What are the odds!

She muttered to herself in displeasure!

If she had known, she should have stayed a little longer in the supermarket, so he wouldn't have caught her. She didn't know that Rong Ling had put something on her, no matter where she hid, he was capable of creating "accidental encounters"!

Thinking for a moment, Lin Meng realized they probably wouldn't have dinner soon. But she couldn't let the little one go hungry either. After all, the child had just finished an afternoon of martial arts training, burning through energy quickly and surely getting hungry. So, Lin Meng reached into the plastic bag, pulled out a row of calcium milk cartons, peeled off the transparent packaging paper, took one out, inserted a straw, and handed it to the little one.

"Youyou, drink some calcium milk first!"

The little guy grinned as he took it, his small mouth around the straw, and began to suck quietly. His little head, however, was nestled contentedly against Lin Meng's body, his two little legs swinging back and forth – looking truly relaxed. Rong Ling saw this from the rearview mirror and muttered inwardly – such a double-standard woman!

The car drove for a while, then stopped.

Lin Meng glanced out the car window, not understanding what Rong Ling meant!

"Look closely!" Rong Ling suddenly hissed. "To the right!"

Lin Meng frowned and looked out the car window, as he had requested. She looked carefully at the scene, and for a moment, she felt that this scene was familiar, as if she had been here before. As soon as she saw the company's name, she immediately remembered it. This was the company of the supervisor who had treated her badly, harassed her, and then tried to seduce her with an order!

What is this!

She puffed up her cheeks and thought, "Does this man think my heart isn't enough!"

Then she rolled her eyes again and felt something was wrong. This time should be quitting time, it should be crowded with people. Even if some people had to work overtime for some reason, there should be employees leaving in small groups. But at the entrance of the company, the glass door was tightly closed, as if no one was entering or exiting.

It's a little strange!

She immediately sat up straight, straightened her face, and leaned closer to the car window, getting a clearer view. She realized that there seemed to be something stuck on the glass door - two large crosses formed by white paper and black ink, which looked eerie and unsettling, not hinting at anything good. It was somewhat similar to a seal!

What's wrong!

She couldn't hold back any longer and finally asked Rong Ling. With this man's status, he must have specifically shown her something important, not some trivial matter that wasn't worth mentioning!

"Bankrupt!" Rong Ling's voice was light, as if a once-famous company had gone bankrupt. In his eyes, it was as effortless as a leaf falling from a tree.

Her heart skipped a beat, and suddenly, some thoughts flashed through her mind. Then, she kept a poker face and pretended to be confused, tilting her head and looking at Rong Ling with a small voice, "How did they go bankrupt! It's so strange, that company wasn't doing too bad, was it"

Rong Ling's face turned a bit cold. "I thought you hated this company!"

"Of course it's annoying!" she pouted. "It's just strange how a perfectly good company can go bankrupt out of the blue!"

Having said that, she glanced at Rong Ling.

“Investment failure, poor cash flow, naturally led to bankruptcy!”

He uttered that with a casual tone, pressed the accelerator, turned the steering wheel, and drove away. Then he said nothing more.

Lin Meng tilted her head slightly and sighed dramatically. "Oh, I wonder what that pig-headed director inside is up to now! You know, he was a real scoundrel. Now that the company has gone bankrupt, I bet he's moved on to bigger and better things!"

The corner of his eyes kept subtly stealing glances at Rong Ling. Sure enough, the tip of Rong Ling's eyebrow on his profile twitched slightly, and his thin lips coldly and very firmly replied: "Impossible! That kind of person should just wait to eat by himself at home!"

"How do you know!" she exclaimed, feigning innocence but with a challenging tone.

He said nothing.

She said again, “You’re not related to that stupid Director, how could you know everything!”

"Come on, you're lying to me!" she said, whacking Rong Ling on the head with another club.

He showed impatience and a slight anger. “That idiot is the CEO of that company's brother-in-law. The company went bankrupt, and his whole family has shares in it. He doesn't give a damn about where he goes next! They're being chased by the court for debt!”

Lin Meng's heart skipped a beat before returning to its normal pace. Then, with a tone of feigned innocence that was infuriatingly irritating, she asked him, "Oh, you know it very well!"

A hint of awkwardness flashed across Rong Ling's face, but his self-control was exceptional. Immediately, his expression returned to its usual coldness, leaving no trace of what had just passed.

Lin Meng playfully rolled her eyes, a hint of a smile in them. Suddenly, she shouted loudly, "Stop the car!"

No tolerance for troublemakers.

"

Róng Líng, I said stop the car!"

"

Rong Ling tightened his grip and let out a low growl: “Be quiet!”

"But she wants to sit at the front! Can you stop, please!"

The tires screeched against the ground, and the car came to a halt immediately. This excellent performance truly lived up to Land Rover's reputation.

Lin Meng hugged the little one, secretly delighted as she opened the car door, got out, closed it, and then the man unceremoniously opened the front passenger door for her. She didn't mind, pulling open the door herself and getting in. After fastening her seatbelt, she smiled and said, "Alright, let's drive!"

Rong Ling gave her a cold, sharp look and continued driving.

The little kid didn't quite understand, but the atmosphere between the adults was getting better. He understood though, and immediately handed over the calcium milk in his hand, asking: "Uncle, do you want to drink it!"

A little bit flattering.

Rong Ling's mouth twitched, how old are you, still drinking milk!

Lin Mengxiao laughed and rubbed the little guy's face, saying, "Uncle is driving, he can't be distracted, that means he can't eat things casually, good things, or make phone calls, etc. He has to keep his eyes on the road and focus on driving. Youyou be good, drink by yourself!"

The little boy said "oh" and put the straw back in his mouth, taking small sips.

Lin Meng's eyes darted back and forth, staring at Rong Ling. The anger in her heart had already dwindled to a faint shadow.

"Róng Líng..." she called out, drawing the name out softly.

He had a cold expression, his profile sharply defined with angular lines, revealing an impassive demeanor.

She had long been accustomed to it, the corners of her brows slightly curved. Her dark eyes shone brightly, looking at him with a smile.

"Actually, it was you who did it, wasn't it!"

Rong Ling pursed her lips.

"Was it you who did it!" She looked at him, seductively. "If you did it, I'd be very grateful to you, oh yes, really, incredibly grateful!"

He curled the corner of his lips, revealing a cold sneer. "Spare me your gratitude!"

This is admitting it!

She began to giggle, but with a happy smack of her lips she kissed the little one right on the face.

Rong Ling's eyes were icy cold as they fixed on him! Was there that much gratitude! Gratitude to him, yet to embrace his son!

The little boy was very smart. As soon as he saw Lin Meng, he turned his head and immediately understood what Lin Meng had just explained to him. He spoke in a childish voice, "Uncle, you can't be distracted, you need to look ahead!"

Rong Ling's face darkened a bit, she glared fiercely at Lin Meng once, then turned her head away.

Lin Meng just laughed. "Youyou, you're amazing!"

"What does 'awesome' mean!" the little boy asked, puzzled.

"Well..." Lin Meng thought for a moment and explained, "To be 'powerful' means that Mommy really wants to do something, and then Youyou helps Mommy out tremendously, very enthusiastically!"

The little guy nodded, a bit happy, feeling like he had learned something new.

"Then Youyou often gave Mommy strength!"

Lin Meng was amused by Xiao Youyou!

Rong Ling unceremoniously criticized Lin Meng, taking the opportunity. "You've never been any help!"

Lin Meng shrunk her shoulders and mumbled, "That's impossible!"

Rong Ling snorted coldly and refused to speak.

Lin Meng felt like this man looked down on her, so she immediately retorted: "To express my gratitude, I'll treat you well later, how about that!"

"Rong Ling turned the steering wheel, making a turn, still unconcerned. “Who cares!”

"Don't just give up." Lin Meng turned her head and refused to speak.lowing behind, numerous people also jumped down and gathered around Rong Ling. There were nearly twenty of them, all appearing to be agile and skilled fighters. They arranged themselves in an orderly...
