Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Taking into account the recent incident where w.a.n.g Song was thrown to the Rong family’s doorstep by Zhuang Ling, Rong Tianshi immediately thought, ‘Could it be that Rong Qi was injured during that incident? Rong Qi’s face showed a hint of sarcasm, and although she didn’t say anything, her meaning was clear.’
Rong Tianshi felt a pang of guilt. He was aware of w.a.n.g Song’s attempt to harm Rong Qi, but after the incident occurred, he didn’t immediately think of Rong Qi. Instead, he was preoccupied with the Rong family’s situation, seeking help from various sources in the hope that the Rong family could overcome this crisis.
Rong Tianshi sighed inwardly, ‘1 had indeed committed a sin!’
Rong Qi puzzledly looked at the troubled Rong Tianshi. She wondered for a moment and quickly understood, ‘If it wasn’t for the sake of Rong Feiyu, then it must have been because he had listened to w.a.n.g Qing’s words and come to ask her to persuade Ye Nanshen to spare w.a.n.g Song. Otherwise, when had he ever spoken to me in such a humble manner?’
Seeing that Rong Qi didn’t respond, Rong Tianshi cursed w.a.n.g Song silently and spoke with concern in his voice, “Recovery will take some time. Don’t worry; 1 will find a way to get rid of the scars for you. Just leave it to me.”
Rong Qi didn’t show much reaction and replied nonchalantly, “Okay.”
Rong Tianshi touched his nose, a little lost for words. He was used to dealing with all kinds of people in the business world, but he couldn’t find the right words when he was with Rong Qi.
Rong Tianshi sat for a while, watching Rong Qi huddled on the couch, her legs crossed lazily. If it had been in the past, he would have scolded her for her lack of manners. But now, when he looked at her, he found her somewhat adorable.
Rong Qi’s delicate face bore some resemblance to Rong Tianshi, and her bad temper, quick to explode, was also a perfect inheritance. The only difference was that she seemed more carefree and aloof than he was, which was more like her mother, Chu Jing.
As Rong Tianshi looked at his “creation”, he couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction. He had heard that Rong Qi scored full marks and joined the Academic and Research Society. Even the neighbors were proud of her. It seemed that he had underestimated those people from Jackdom.
Sitting across from Rong Tianshi, Rong Qi felt her hair standing on end under his gaze. She stared at him, her dark eyes filled with confusion, ‘Why did his gaze seem strange? It was like he was looking at a pet?’
Rong Qi cleared her throat, bringing Rong Tianshi back to his senses.
Rong Tianshi’s face turned awkward, and he pushed the gifts on the table towards Rong Qi, handing over the bag of fruits. He said, “I wasn’t sure what you like, so I bought some random stuff. Don’t mind it. I know you have everything you need now. If you like them, feel free to eat. If not… you can give them to someone else.”
Rong Qi reached out and accepted the bag, taking a look at its contents. Her lips curled up slightly. Inside the bag were durian flesh, nonis, horned melons…
As soon as Rong Qi opened the bag, a pungent odor wafted out. She looked at Rong Tianshi and wanted to ask him why he had bought her these fruits. She pondered, ‘Was it because apples weren’t sweet enough, or oranges lacked juice?’
Before she could ask, Rong Tianshi explained, “I noticed that you’re different from other girls and probably prefer unique things. 1 guessed these fruits based on that, thinking you might like something with a stronger taste.”
Rong Qi thought to herself, ‘Well… I do like it. But it really stinks.’
“Thank you,” Rong Qi said seriously.
Regardless of Rong Tianshi’s intentions, it was clear that he had put thought into gathering the exotic fruits, and that alone deserved her appreciation..
