Chapter 1006 - 233: Sweet Extra 2
Rong Sinan was silent, staring straight ahead.
Luckily, Jin Jumo didn’t press further and said, "How much longer until you and Big Brother arrive? The year-end dinner is already prepared, we’re just waiting for you two."
Tang Yige sighed deeply, still feeling embarrassed.
"Uh, Momo, my brother and I are on our way now, we’ll be there in about twenty minutes," Tang Yige said.
"Alright, we’ll wait for you."
After ending the call, Tang Yige angrily stuffed her phone into her bag and glared at Rong Sinan.
Rong Sinan’s gaze slid from the rearview mirror without acknowledging anything.
Tang Yige felt the urge to hit someone!
...
The car arrived at Jinming Port City, and without acknowledging Rong Sinan, Tang Yige got out and walked towards the villa without looking back.
Rong Sinan said nothing.
As Tang Yige reached the door, a small, chubby figure came crashing towards her.
Normally, Tang Yige might have managed to steady herself.
But today, as the little one bumped into her, her knees buckled, and she sat down abruptly.
Fortunately, a large hand reached out from behind and supported her back in time, saving her from a bigger embarrassment.
Rong Sinan steadied her, looking at her with worried eyes.
Tang Yige placed a hand on her chest, glancing at him from the corner of her eye.
Seeing the concern in his eyes, Tang Yige’s lips curved slightly.
Alright, considering he caught her in time, she decided not to hold it against him for the moment.
She quickly reached back and squeezed Rong Sinan’s hand.
Then Tang Yige looked down at the little one holding onto her legs.
But this look caused Tang Yige’s eyes to suddenly tighten.
Tang Yige’s expression changed slightly as she squatted down and gently stroked Little Rui’s pale, stiff face, "Baby, what’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Little Rui hugged Tang Yige’s neck tightly, turning his little head slightly towards the living room.
Tang Yige took a deep breath, picked up Little Rui, and looked towards the living room.
When she saw Fang Jingyi standing in the living room, dressed in red, Tang Yige’s face quickly turned ashen.
"Mom," Little Rui nestled his head into Tang Yige’s neck, his face icy cold against her skin.
Tang Yige’s heart ached as she freed a hand to gently stroke Little Rui’s head, her eyes reddened as she stared at Fang Jingyi.
Rong Sinan also saw Fang Jingyi in the living room.
His dark lashes lowered, worry in his eyes as he watched Tang Yige and Little Rui standing there.
"Yige, Sinan, what are you two doing standing at the door? It’s time to eat!"
Rong Zhengfeng got up from the sofa with a cane, turning to look affectionately at Rong Sinan.
Although the old man hid it well, Tang Yige still noticed his tense expression.
Perhaps...
The old man was worried she might just leave!
Indeed...
Upon seeing Fang Jingyi, Tang Yige had the impulse to leave with Little Rui.
But she knew that having the thought was one thing; actually doing it was another.
After all...
Compared to Rong Zhengfeng, Jin Jumo, and Rong Mochen, and those three little ones...
Fang Jingyi didn’t hold the same weight in her heart!
So, in the end, she wouldn’t let just one Fang Jingyi ruin their New Year.
Hearing Rong Zhengfeng’s words,
Tang Yige closed her eyes slightly, but held onto Little Rui even tighter.
After taking a few deep breaths, Tang Yige adjusted her expression, smiling at Rong Zhengfeng, "Sorry, Grandpa, we’re late."
Rong Sinan watched Tang Yige with a heart full of pity.
Rong Zhengfeng’s face relaxed considerably, smiling broadly, "It’s fine, it’s fine, we’re all family, there’s no need for apologies. Come on in."
"Mm."
Tang Yige changed her shoes and was about to walk inside with Little Rui in her arms.
"Mama!"
Little Rui hugged Tang Yige’s neck tightly, refusing to let go.
Tang Yige’s eyes reddened as she leaned her head to gently kiss Little Rui’s ear, speaking softly, "Baby, Daddy and Mommy are here, your uncle and aunt are also here, and so is your great-grandpa, okay?"
Little Rui didn’t respond, only burying his face deeper into Yige’s neck.
Tang Yige almost cried, pressing her face against Little Rui’s head, biting her lips, calming down for a moment, and then hoarsely asked, "Do you want Mommy to take you away now?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Jingyi’s hand instantly grasped her left chest.
Rong Zhengfeng also clenched the cane in his hand, looking at Little Rui with hope.
"..."
Little Rui said nothing.
Tang Yige took a deep breath, lightly laughed, "Mom listens to you. If you decide to leave, Mom will take you, okay?"
"..."
Rong Rui was silent for a moment, then quietly said, "I’m hungry."
"..."
Tang Yige’s fingertips trembled, "Alright, then Mom will take you to eat. Tonight’s dishes will definitely be plentiful."
"Mm. I want to eat a lot, a lot."
After a pause, "Eat today, diet tomorrow."
"...Hey."
Tang Yige’s eyes held a hint of red as she smiled next to his little ear, "No need to diet, this way is cute."
"Hmph. You women always say one thing and mean another!"
Rong Rui snorted at Yige’s neck.
Tang Yige touched his little head, then gave it a big kiss, before holding him to walk inside.
Rong Sinan watched Tang Yige and Rong Rui from behind, his heart aching.
He would rather they be a bit more willful, rather than being so understanding and considerate, forcing a smile.
...
In the dining room.
A New Year’s Eve dinner passed quietly.
Except for occasional sounds made by Little Jiu Jiu, there was barely anyone speaking.
The three little ones sat in a row; besides Hanhan who ate elegantly, Xixi and Little Rui ate like they hadn’t had a meal in eight hundred years, their small faces almost buried in the bowls.
Fang Jingyi roughly understood that because she was there, the atmosphere couldn’t lift.
Therefore, she didn’t have much appetite, barely ate a bit before putting down her chopsticks.
But she didn’t leave the table, sitting quietly in her chair, looking at Rong Rui full of guilt.
Tang Yige slightly frowned.
She didn’t want to lie to herself, now just seeing Fang Jingyi looking at Rong Rui with that gaze, it made her uncomfortable, blocked!
...
After dinner, the whole family walked out of the villa, standing on the villa steps, watching Rong Rui, Xixi, and Hanhan set off fireworks, the front of the villa filled with the children’s happy laughter.
"Yay yay yiya..."
Even little Jiu in dad’s arms was infected, waving her little chubby hands at her siblings playing in front of the door, as if complaining for them to bring her along to play.
Drawing smiles from all the adults.
Rong Zhengfeng initially laughed very subtly, and then openly laughed out loud.
"Great-grandpa."
Xixi bounced over, waving her strawberry-gloved hand at Rong Zhengfeng.
Rong Zhengfeng happily squatted down, "What is it?"
Xixi shrugged her little shoulders, pouted and kissed Rong Zhengfeng on the cheek, then shyly covered her face and quickly ran down.
"...Hahaha."
Rong Zhengfeng was stunned, then laughed even more heartily, "You little impish girl."
"Yay yay yi..."
Little Jiu gestured at Rong Zhengfeng.
Rong Zhengfeng laughed so much his features were practically gone, stood up dotingly held Little Jiu’s hand, "Does Little Jiu want to kiss great-grandpa too?"
"Yiyah..."
Little Jiu babbled, her chubby little body falling toward Rong Zhengfeng from Rong Mochen’s embrace, as if seeking a hug.
"Hahahaha... Come, come, great-grandpa’s little treasure."
Rong Zhengfeng quickly placed his cane aside, taking Little Jiu from Rong Mochen.
Just as he held her steady, Rong Mochen sternly reminded, "Grandpa, be careful with Little Jiu, don’t let her fall!"
"Rong Mochen..."
Jin Jumo couldn’t stand it and tugged on Rong Mochen’s clothes.
Rong Mochen raised an eyebrow, grasped Jin Jumo’s hand tightly.
"Hmph."
Rong Zhengfeng, in a good mood, didn’t argue with Rong Mochen, smilingly looking at Little Jiu in his arms, "Jiu, you must never learn from your dad, alright?"
"Yaya..."
Little Jiu touched Rong Zhengfeng’s face, as if comforting him. (Though Little Jiu probably doesn’t even know what comforting means)
Rong Zhengfeng smiled, completely unbothered whether Little Jiu understood or not, and continued to speak.
But just then.
While spinning with the fireworks, Rong Rui stumbled and suddenly sat down in the snow.
Rong Zhengfeng’s heart tightened, looked over.
Before he saw Rong Rui himself, Fang Jingyi rushed down in an arrow step.
"..."
