Rong Tianshiâs hand clutched the envelope tightly, his eyes ablaze with fury.
He bellowed at Wang Song, âYou beast! Who allowed you to touch Rong Qi? No matter what, sheâs still my daughter. Where do you place me in all this! The state youâre in now is entirely your own doing! You deserve it!â
Wang Qing shielded Wang Song with concern, âTianshi, even if Song made a mistake, heâs in this state now. Please donât blame him anymore. 1 beg you.â
Rong Tianshi gritted his teeth, then turned to Zhuang Ling, âMr. Zhuang, this matter was caused by Wang Songâs own actions, and it has nothing to do with me. I had no idea. Could you please take me to meet Mr. Shen? I need to explain to him. This has nothing to do with the Rong family. Please ask him to spare the Rong family!â
Zhuang Lingâs expression was scornful, feeling sorry for Rong Qi. He thought, âAt the first opportunity after learning the truth, Rong Tianshi distanced himself, not mentioning Madam at all, not even showing a hint of concern. Is this really her family?â
Zhuang Ling said, âYou can forget about that. Master Shen is busy. Remember, donât let Madam know about this matter. If even a whisper leaks out⦠Heliâ¦â
Swiftly, Zhuang Ling drew a gun and fired at a nearby stone next to Wang Song.
BANG!
The stone shattered into fragments, and splinters flew everywhere. Rong Tianshi and Wang Qing trembled, their faces drained of color.
After relaying the message, Zhuang Ling got into his car and drove away.
Once Zhuang Ling was gone, Wang Qing hurriedly instructed the servants to call for emergency assistance while wiping the blood off Wang Songâs face.
âSong, my poor brother, who did this to you? How could it come to this? What will become of you now?â said Wang Qing.
Wang Song had just a trace of consciousness left. He mumbled incessantly, âRong Qi, itâs Rong Qiâ¦â
Wang Songâs pupils were wide, his eyes filled with terror. If his voice wasnât hoarse by now, he would probably be screaming.
âRong Qi!â Wang Qing exclaimed as she gritted her teeth fiercely, her hands clenched tightly. The look in her eyes toward the distance resembled that of a venomous snake.
After school, Rong Qi was picked up by Zhuang Ling. She got into the car and frowned. She asked, âWhereâs he?â
Usually, it was Ye Nanshen who picked Rong Qi up around this time.
Zhuang Ling cleared his throat and said, âMadam, Master Shen is still at the company handling business matters. Umâ¦â
âGet to the point,â Rong Qi said as she frowned.
âAhem, today when you called Master Shen, Mr. Han was present. Because of that, Master Shen might be a bit⦠a bit unhappyâ¦â Zhuang Lingâs voice trailed off.
Rong Qi gave a disdainful snort, taking out her phone and checking the trending topics on the web. She asked, âSo what? Is he in a bad mood? Heâs been spoiled too much! Itâs fine, just ignore him.â
Zhuang Ling fell silent, shedding a tear of sympathy for his master. He thought, âI had come here today just to see if Madam could soothe Master Shen. But 1 never thought⦠For the next few days, all Master Shenâs subordinates would start to suffer misfortune, and we would have to be extra careful.â
Zhuang Ling sighed, mourning for himself internally. He drove all the way to Jingsheng Corporation.
As Rong Qi and Zhuang Ling stepped into the elevator, they began ascending.
In the elevator, Zhuang Ling still wanted to offer some advice, hoping to prevent Ye Nanshen and Rong Qi from fighting and the innocent subordinates from suffering.
Zhuang Ling said, âMadam, how about you consider buying Master Shen a gift? I can go buy it now, thereâs still time. If youâre concerned about the expense, 1 can contribute⦠If you donât want to give a gift, you could just say a few kind words to Master Shen. The key is to be gentle.â
In truth, Ye Nanshen could be easily appeased.
Rong Qi looked at her phone, tapping on the keyboard as she listened to Zhuang Lingâs words, tugging at the corners of her mouth wordlessly. She said, âAppeased? What is there to appeased? Why are you so worried about this? Taking advantage of this situation, 1 want him to know who holds the power in this family..â
