Chapter 104: Chapter 104

She was truly fed up with this crowd.

When they need you, they act all charitable, wanting you to beg at their feet; when they don’t need you, they kick you aside and couldn’t care less if you vanished far away.

Rong Zhi pressed the golden pearl and closed her eyes to calm her internal frustration.

She had long seen through these people’s true colors, nothing to be angry about, save herself from damaging her health with fury.

Rong Xian’an suddenly froze.

A very polite and distant "Mr. Rong" struck him, causing a complex feeling to rise suddenly in his heart.

He suddenly remembered, Rong Zhi was also his flesh and blood.

It wasn’t her fault she was taken away back then...

Yet when Rong Xian’an met Rong Zhi’s slowly opening eyes, his throat seemed blocked, unable to retort.

The youth’s eyes were distinctly black and white, deep and dark, his eyebrows and eyes were very pretty, resembling his mother who once outshone everyone in Beijing, yet much colder, looking at him as if seeing a stranger.

The youth suddenly stood up.

Rong Xian’an also lifted his head.

He thought Rong Zhi was going to say something, but Rong Zhi just glanced at him and turned to leave.

Rong Xian’an suddenly felt empty inside.

He thought of chasing out to keep pace with the youth, yet the youth walked quickly, practically turning around the corridor the moment he stepped out, leaving only a clear and wild figure behind.

Rong Xian’an was dumbfounded, standing there.

Clearly, from the start, he greatly disliked this child lost eighteen years ago, but now, he felt lost because of the child’s departure...

...

Rong Zhi drove to the hospital.

As soon as she entered the ward, Rong Jiazze sweetly greeted her, "Brother."

Rong Jiazze’s voice recovered quite well, these days Jiang Gujun had been training his pronunciation and articulation, before being taken he was likely from the south, and his speech carried a soft and sweet Jiangnan flavor.

Compared to Rong Jiazze’s enthusiasm, Rong Fengmian was quite indifferent.

Without even looking at Rong Zhi, he continued to bow his head and chat with someone.

Rong Zhi pulled up a chair by the bedside, took the apples Bai Su bought from the bedside cabinet and started peeling them, her movements quick, peeling three in just a few motions, then went to the washroom for rinsing, and turned out to hand them separately to the three.

When it came to Rong Fengmian, he pushed away Rong Zhi’s hand, said sternly, "I don’t want it."

Rong Zhi said oh, withdrew her hand and started eating it herself.

Rong Fengmian widened his eyes, "Sis, you just ate it yourself, didn’t even ask if I wanted it?"

Rong Zhi puzzled, "I did give it to you."

"Can’t you give it again?"

The boy’s aggrieved shout echoed in the ward.

He Songzhi frowned, "Why are you yelling at your sister?"

"I wasn’t yelling at her!"

Since the previous night, Rong Fengmian had been bottling up his grievance, glaring at Rong Zhi and raising his voice to question, "Sis didn’t you say you were part of our family, didn’t you say you’d always take care of us, then why now go back on your word forcing me to grow up?!"

"I don’t want to! Why force me to do things I don’t want to do!"

He Songzhi’s expression was stunned, she couldn’t believe Rong Fengmian could say such words.

And once Rong Fengmian finished shouting, he immediately perceived he misspoke just now, but his innate stubbornness and pride wouldn’t allow him to admit fault, he wasn’t wrong, the wrong was Rong Zhi.

This was all Senior Sister Meng had told him.

His sister always knew his character, didn’t persuade him, worse yet made him do things he didn’t like, wasn’t it because she wanted to get rid of them or what.

She felt he and mom were a burden to her!

Rong Fengmian looked at Rong Zhi with red eyes almost about to cry, and angrily said, "Liar!"

He rushed out of the ward.

Watching the wide-open ward door, Rong Zhi slightly clenched the apple in her hand.

He Songzhi looked at Rong Zhi with concern, "Zai Zai..."

"It’s okay," Rong Zhi shook her head, placed the apple to He Songzhi’s lips, "Mom, eat an apple, don’t worry, I’ll go after him."

She took a tissue to wipe as she left the ward.

Rong Jiazze blinked, immediately feeling the apple in his mouth was not tasty.

He wrinkled his little face, pulled out his phone to send a message—

[Brother Gu Jun, brother and Feng Mian argued, brother seemed very upset, I’m a bit worried about her, can you help me tell Brother Su to go see them?]

The response came after two minutes.

Brother Gu Jun: [Sure, I’ve told Brother Su, don’t worry, Brother Su will go now. Pat Pat.ipg]

...

There’s a garden downstairs at the hospital where patients suntan.

Rong Fengmian’s courage was still small, afraid to run too far, just hiding himself in a corner hugging his phone sobbing while making phone calls.

"Senior Sister Meng, I really don’t know what to do, my brother was very good to me before, but ever since we returned to that home, she’s changed..."

The voice on the other end was gentle and amiable, speaking softly, "People always change, Feng Mian, your brother isn’t wrong, you need to grow up, but..."

She paused, continued, "But not now, you’re still young, still need someone to take care of you, she’s indeed a bit excessive."

Rong Fengmian sniffed, voice teary, "Senior Sister Meng, you think she’s excessive too!"

"Who’s excessive?"

A hoarse and deep voice came from above his head, Rong Fengmian’s back stiffened immediately, hurriedly hanging up the phone, stood up and turned around, sticking his chest out with defiance, "You’re excessive!"

Rong Zhi replied softly, "And then?"

Rong Fengmian stumped, he didn’t know what to say, just felt Rong Zhi’s attitude was perfunctory, didn’t care about him at all, harshly snorted, pushed aside Rong Zhi and ran away without looking back.

This time Rong Zhi didn’t chase.

She just stood there, one hand in her pocket squinting silently watching Rong Fengmian return to the inpatient department.

Sighing softly in her heart.

She never went through a rebellious phase, the younger friends around her were each more sensible than her, dealing with rebellious boys she truly lacked experience.

But in Rong Fengmian’s situation, she couldn’t ignore, in the end she could only ask some older friends around for advice.

Zhao Hecheng: [Try coaxing him, sixteen-year-old boys are indeed tough, why don’t you bring him to me, I’ll help you watch him for a few days.]

Rong Zhi thought a while, Zhao Hecheng had a relaxed disposition, a good conversation partner, his suggestion could be considered.

Rong Zhi: [Let me discuss with my mom, ask him meanwhile.]

Zhao Hecheng: [Sure, oh right, that kid you introduced has pretty good potential, when you later enter Engineering College, let him work under you.]

Rong Zhi: [Okay.]

She turned off her phone and walked back, just then, a figure approached her.

Tall in stature, peach blossom eyes with shimmering water color, the face refined and romantic, the man with relaxed and lazy aura stopped in front of her.

The passing nurses and patients couldn’t help glancing at him.

Rong Zhi: "Hmm?"

Bai Su lowered his gaze, his eyes reflecting the youth’s delicate face, lips playfully curled, "Ah, felt hungry a bit early today, but without Zai Zai, my appetite isn’t great."

Rong Zhi walked forward with one hand in her pocket, "Say it again."

Bai Su chuckled lightly, catching up with the youth’s steps, those nicely shaped peach blossom eyes lifted, answering confidently, "Hungry, want to eat little brother’s soft rice."

Rong Zhi: "..."

She turned her face expressionlessly.

Bai Su smiled charmingly, casually blinking one eye at her flirtatiously.

Rong Zhi turned back.

She tapped her phone screen, leisurely asking, "Which place?"
