section, I stayed up late these two days to code a bit. Please bear with me for now.As always, we'll resume normal updates in two weeks, on the 28th. Things are still busy here, so please bear with us...This woman!
Rong Ling sighed in her heart!
That time she fell into the sea really scared her. She kept thinking about finding someone to help prevent this from happening again. (..tw no pop-up ads) Think about when he first came back, she was practically glued to him, almost going to the bathroom with him. Later, her fear finally subsided a bit, and even if he went away for work, she wouldn't call every few minutes to check on him. But this was far from over! He had anticipated that this wouldn't be something that could just pass so quickly, but he didn't think carefully about how deeply this incident tore a hole in her heart. To stitch that wound back together, to recover the original state, it couldn't be fast!
Hey there, little one!
He let out another sigh of dismay!
It was him who made her suffer!
This woman looks like she's smiling most of the time, but deep down, her heart is still hurting.
“Don’t jump to conclusions!” he gently kissed her cheek. “Let’s see what happens first. And, my dear, I won’t do anything dangerous again, you don’t have to worry. Besides, we have Wang Tu Security protecting our home, with tens of thousands of bodyguards. They can surely protect our family of three. Besides, you know my abilities, I always make sure to have an escape route. Like that time I fell into the sea, that was definitely a one-time thing. My dear, please don’t worry so much. You keep carrying this burden, and it weighs heavily on my heart, making me uncomfortable too!”
Lin Meng felt a stir, but also a little embarrassed.
"Sorry, I... I just think about it occasionally."
He sighed. "I'm sorry, I understand why you would feel that way."
"That's not like that," she argued quickly. "It's all in the past, don't say sorry about it."
He lowered his eyes, his expression growing increasingly dejected. "But your heart isn't in it!"
She was speechless.
He didn't speak, just hung his head like that. You have to know that this man usually had a cold and ruthless look, appearing powerful beyond measure. He suddenly looked so weak, even fragile, which really tugged at Lin Meng's heart.
She also wanted to let go of the past, but it was impossible. Thoughts, how could anyone control them Just because she didn't want to think about it, didn't mean she could stop herself. Moreover, back then, she had suffered for half a month, that kind of pain almost tore her apart. Even thinking about it now made her shiver in fear. But now, seeing the man like this, made her feel like holding onto the past was a sin.
He looked like that, she couldn't bear to look away!
She let out a long, soft sigh and then took the initiative to wrap her arms around him, calling to him in a sweetly coaxing voice.
"Honey!"
The man ignored her.
She didn't give up, and called again. "Husband! Husband Husband! Husband――"
She impulsively lifted her face to rub against his handsome one, like a cat purring and rubbing affectionately.
"Honey, I will definitely try my best to let go, okay I can't control this kind of thing after all. Letting go takes time and fate, you have to understand me, don't pressure me. Honey, good husband, please don't do this. Give me a smile!"
She rubbed against him again, and finally leaned her whole body against him, looking more and more like a big cat. But he just remained unmoved, which made her feel discouraged. Her beautiful eyes blinked, her black pupils turned, and she let out a soft hum.
"If you continue to ignore me like this, I'll get angry!"
He simply raised his hand, rubbed her head, but the expression on his face was still disdainful.
She let out another little giggle, like a child. "You're angry, you're angry! I'm angry!"
Her small face was buried in his shoulder, rubbing against it haphazardly.
He almost laughed out loud, but managed to hold it back. She seemed to be indignant, and finally pulled her head away from his shoulder with a jerk, straightening up and pushing him away with both hands. She puffed out her cheeks, looking quite angry, but then her alluring eyes would sneak glances at him every now and then.
He looked, trying hard to suppress a smile.
They remained frozen like that for about two minutes. Then, she suddenly pounced on him, her face flushed, and grabbed his face in both hands, complaining loudly.
"I said, 'I'm angry!'"
He still remained silent, for looking at her wide-eyed stare and her little pouted mouth, he was afraid that if he spoke, his composure would be broken and he'd laugh out loud. All he could do was rub her head gently with his hand.
This action seemed to push her to the limit, and she exploded all of a sudden.
"Ugh!" she mumbled, letting go of him abruptly. She toppled over and landed on top of him.
"This time I'm really angry!" she cried, her small frame twisting and turning until she curled up like a little shrimp. She pressed her head against his legs and then burrowed into his abdomen with all her might.
He seemed fine, but she was clearly flustered. Her face turned bright red, and beads of sweat formed on her forehead as she gasped for breath.
She must have been tired from the commotion. She took a few breaths, then suddenly buried her small face into his abdomen and fell silent.
He raised his hand and, as always, stroked the back of her head, gently soothing her. He should have spoken up, but he didn't want to. Because teasing her like this was really quite amusing.
Well, sometimes his sense of humor is really awful!
After a while, seeing that she was still motionless, he called out to her.
"Good boy!"
She didn't move.
He cocked his head and listened for a while to her breathing, a smile curving at the corner of his mouth.
"Little one" he called out in a soft voice.
She did not answer, of course. He gently parted the long, black hair that covered her face with his slender fingers. As the black hair was moved aside, a pale and rosy face was revealed, delicate, healthy, and alluring. Her eyelids were closed, her long eyelashes slightly curved like a fine comb, forming a shallow crescent moon shape. That tranquil sleeping expression calmed him down, making him unconsciously smile.
There are also some carefree little women who, though they say "I'm angry," turn around and sleep soundly like children!
Little girl!
He gently pushed aside the stray hairs on her forehead, the tenderness in his eyes overflowing even more.
Sleeping like this, so carefree. It seems the things he said to her still have an effect. She must be more at ease now. The shadow from that last time she fell into the sea should have faded.
He hung his head and stared at her for a long time. When his phone in his hand suddenly began to vibrate, he reached out and took it, glancing at the caller ID before hanging up. Then he tucked the phone into his pocket and gently lifted her up, standing himself up as well.
"Hmm." She hummed softly, instinctively burrowing into his arms.
He glanced at her, seeing that she was still sleeping soundly, her hands unconsciously clutching his shirt, pulling him. He smiled again. With long strides, he moved gracefully like a panther, making no sound as he carried her back to the bedroom. After gently placing her on the bed, he pulled the blanket over her small belly and took one last look before leaving the room and finally taking out his phone to return the call.
Upon hearing the news from the other end of the phone, he hummed in response and hung up.
This time, what the clan did looks pretty good!
As promised, the board meeting was held at 9:00 am. As a family-controlled company, the board members of YADONG Group were basically members of the Rong family. Holding a board meeting was essentially like holding a small family meeting. At the meeting, Rong Ling handed over his work and formally stepped down as the president of YADONG Group and the head of the Rong family. According to prior arrangements by the family members, these two positions would be temporarily held by Rong Feiwu. At the same time, the new round of family head election officially began. Potential candidates like Rong Qifeng will begin a three-year training period. After three years, based on their performance, the most outstanding person will be chosen to take over as the head of the family.
After the meeting, all non-Rong clan members left. Lin Meng, aunt, Rong Minlin and others waiting outside were invited in, and the conference room door was closed again. This time, it was about Aunt's affairs!
Lin Meng sat down beside Rong Ling. After everyone else had seated themselves, Big Aunt stood up and gave a speech.
"Rong Ling, Lin Meng, after our discussion, we have unanimously decided that Lin Meng will still take on the position of elder sister-in-law. This is our sincerity!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she left her place and personally carried the thick stack of petitions to Lin Meng's face.
“This is a petition, and nearly ninety-three percent of the clan members have already signed it. The condition inherited by my aunt is that it requires the consent of more than half of the clan members. Your number has far exceeded more than half. Moreover, we were a little rushed in handling this matter, and some clan members are too far away to get their signatures within a short period of time. Because we require them to personally watch someone write down their own name, there is no room for any fabrication. Therefore, all the signatures on this petition were handled by the most loyal and reliable people we sent, who personally watched everyone write each character, making it the most authentic and trustworthy.”
Lin Meng, you were invited here by all of us, so please don't have any psychological shadows or burdens. We sincerely invite you to take this position and rest assured that you can do whatever it takes to give our Rong family a brighter future!
After she finished speaking, Rong Jia's elder aunt held the petition in both hands, as if it were a heavy decree, and presented it to Lin Meng.
Lin Meng lowered her head and looked at the names on the petition, one after another, followed by a red fingerprint for each name. To say she wasn't moved was impossible! There were so many names on this petition, representing so many heartfelt wishes. It was heavy! She hadn't expected this, she was caught off guard, and for a moment, she was speechless.
Her aunt stopped talking, just holding the petition in her hands and waiting there. She had said everything she wanted to say. Words are powerful and alluring, but sometimes, a thousand words can't compare to actions!
They spared no effort, running tirelessly to collect these petitions, each signed and stamped. Their message is already contained within these very petitions!
This is their biggest sincerity!
Lin Meng looked at the petition for a while, then slowly raised her head and glanced at her aunt. Her aunt nodded at her. Lin Meng turned her head again and looked to one side. Her eyes swept across the faces of everyone present, where hope was evident in their eyes, and they all nodded at her. She scanned the room like this, then slowly closed her eyes, her gaze returning to the petition in front of her.
Slowly, she took a deep breath, holding it in her chest for a moment before slowly releasing it, letting the air go completely. Then, she resumed normal breathing. At the same time, she extended her hands, palms up in a reverent gesture, and offered them toward the petition.
Aunt's face broke into a loving smile, her hands following suit as she lifted the seemingly light but actually heavy petition and placed it in Lin Meng's hand. Lin Meng took it steady, returned a smile to his aunt, and spoke.
Thank you!
He tilted his head again, looked around at everyone, and said another "thank you". This one was crisp, high-pitched, sweet, and firm.
"Thank you, I won't let you down!"
She smiled again, a confident and radiant smile.
Aunt Da, raising her hand, clapped once. This was like a signal, and as soon as she clapped, everyone else followed suit, clapping with renewed energy. The sound of "whooshing" applause mixed with sighs of relief and the joy of finally seeing their wish fulfilled.
Lin Meng's eyes turned, looking at the man standing beside her. She saw the affirmation in his eyes and also noticed him clapping. Her ears turned a faint pink, but her eyes shone even brighter. She smiled, revealing two rows of neat, pearly white teeth, and her smile curved her eyes.
This is a win-win situation!
Lin Meng has taken over as the matriarch, from this moment on, it's a done deal! The official handover will take place at this year's annual meeting!
After the incident, Lin Meng sighed to Rong Ling and lamented, "I never expected that our clan would do such a thing this time."
Rong Ling only said one word.
"That's it!"
That arrogant tone surely conveyed that his woman deserved such an attitude. Lin Meng, upon hearing this, broke into a smile.
Since the plan proposed earlier has been approved by everyone, we need to think it over carefully. We should revise what needs to be revised and improve what needs to be improved. Rong Minlin and others have also participated in this work. Lin Meng went to the tribe every day to work with everyone, or sometimes brought some work home to do.
At this time of day, Rong Ling also went to work at Shuangmu, and the two little ones also started being sent to kindergarten.
Basically, the whole family is busy during the day.
In the evenings, family time becomes a priority. Lin Meng usually avoids work and takes the opportunity to catch up with her son and grandson about their day's events while sharing some of her own experiences. Sometimes she joins in on the fun when all three children, including Rong Hentuo, are playing "tank." It's a chance for her to learn alongside them. Other times, she'll sit beside Rong Ling as he handles things, offering assistance whenever possible. When there's nothing else going on, she invites Rong Ling to spend time with her watching movies, TV shows, or listening to music. They might even sneak out together for some fun away from the kids.
That's when the days began to settle, and Xiao Yi emerged.
