"Baby, what should Aunt do now?"
At this mont, Lai Feifei walked in from outside.
She glanced at Rongrong’s pale face and was startled. Unable to suppress her concern, she asked, "Rongrong, what’s wrong? Why do you look so terrible?"
"Nothing."
"I just haven’t been resting well lately, so I’m a bit drained."
"Don’t worry."
"Alright then, I’ll go cook sothing for you."
"Rongrong, you really need to take care of yourself. Your health wasn’t great to begin with, so you’ve got to pay extra attention. Us three sisters, we still need to grow old together."
After showing her concern for Rongrong for a while, Lai Feifei headed to the kitchen.
anwhile, Rongrong was lost in thought, dwelling on the agreent with Li Zhiyan.
The scene of Boss Liu’s legs being brutally broken once again surfaced in her mind.
That utterly savage mont filled her heart with an uncontrollable wave of terror.
After several minutes, Rongrong finally made up her mind.
She then called Shen Hongi.
"Hello, Hongi."
"Rongrong."
Shen Hongi, who had barely slept and was drinking so milk, put down the glass the mont she received Rongrong’s call, losing all appetite.
Could it be... this woman is calling to say she’s officially with Li Zhiyan now? Does that an I truly have no chance left?
"Hongi, can you... can you be with Xiao Yan, as his girlfriend?"
"Xiao Yan and I... it’s over."
As she spoke, Rongrong’s heart ached trendously.
She truly longed to be with Li Zhiyan, to live every day in sweet happiness. But she just couldn’t bring herself to accept any harm coming to him.
And in order to not make him sad or upset, she felt she had to ensure that he found soone for himself. Hongi was the perfect choice.
If Liu Hongjie knew Li Zhiyan was with Shen Hongi, he probably wouldn’t resort to extres.
"What’s going on?"
Shen Hongi sensed that sothing must’ve happened.
"Did Xiao Yan say he didn’t want to date anymore?"
"No."
"Then, is it you who doesn’t want to?"
"Also no."
Shen Hongi found it increasingly strange.
If both wanted to be together, why couldn’t they? And Rongrong would even call her herself... it just didn’t add up.
After all these years of entangled feelings among them, Shen Hongi knew Rongrong very well.
Given how head-over-heels she always acted when she was with Li Zhiyan, for her to voluntarily push him toward Shen Hongi now... it was evident she must’ve been profoundly shaken by sothing.
"It’s because Liu Hongjie is back. He found out about and Xiao Yan... then called and threatened , using him to get at ."
Shen Hongi couldn’t help but curse, "That bastard!"
People like him were the hardest to deal with in society. Especially with Liu Hongjie’s criminal record, using Li Zhiyan’s safety as a threat was despicable.
It was no wonder that the fear had rooted itself deep in Rongrong’s heart.
She could ignore her own safety, but she couldn’t risk Li Zhiyan’s.
"Did he... threaten you to do anything else?"
"He wanted to sleep with him. I refused."
"And later, that’s when he used Xiao Yan to threaten . With people like him, there isn’t much we can do."
"So tonight, I’m planning to talk to Xiao Yan directly. I’ll suggest that he spends so ti with you and seriously think things through."
"During this ti, you must officially be with him. Don’t let him overthink."
"Soday, you two will be happy together."
"And when Xiao Yan eventually finds a young woman he likes, you can break up then."
Such a sudden request left Shen Hongi completely caught off guard.
