Hearing her pitiful voice, like that of a stray kitten, Shangguan Wu's heart softened, and he agreed, "Sure, give me an address, and I'll come right away."

Instantly, Rongrong was moved to tears.

"Wu Bao, tell me your address, and I'll have the driver come find you."

Shangguan Wu didn't argue with her about it, and said, "I'm in the Wanlida Department Store on the pedestrian street."

"Okay, can I call you when I arrive?"

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Shangguan Wu looked down at Gu Xiaobao: "Why did you stop playing?"

Gu Xiaobao tugged at her hem and asked, "Auntie, are you leaving again?"

After a slight pause, Shangguan Wu said gently, "I'm not leaving. A cute young lady will be coming over later to play with us!"

Gu Xiaobao asked curiously, "Is this young lady a friend of my aunt?"

Shangguan Wu: "..."

Shouldn't she be called "Auntie"? Otherwise, Rongrong would be a generation younger than her.

"Ahem, she's my friend, Xiao Bao, you can call her Auntie."

"oh."

Gu Xiaobao showed little interest and took her hand to go find her grandmother.

When Ji Moyan saw them coming, she said to her daughter-in-law, "If you have something to do, go ahead and do it. I'll take Xiaobao home in a bit."

"Mom, I'm fine. A friend just came to talk to me. She's a very innocent little sister," Shangguan Wu said.

Ji Moyan raised an eyebrow, but since she didn't see anyone, she didn't offer any opinion.

Gu Xiaobao's body hasn't recovered yet, so he shouldn't exercise. That's why we came to this indoor children's playground.

Jimo Yan plans to build a toy house at home.

When Wu Bao has a baby, you can play with it.

She has two sons, and once they get married and have children, there will only be more and more kids. With playmates, she won't need to take them out every day, since the outside is never as safe as home.

About an hour later, Shangguan Wu received a call from Rongrong and took the elevator downstairs to pick her up.

The moment Rongrong saw Shangguan Wu, she suddenly hugged her with red eyes.

Shangguan Wu was slightly taken aback, then raised his hand and gently patted her back.

"It's okay, honey, don't overthink it, everything will be alright."

Her gentle voice had a calming power, and Rongrong gradually calmed down, letting go of her. Her eyes were red, and her cheeks were also red.

"Yes, I'm sorry, Wu Bao, I got your clothes dirty." Rong Rong apologized to her, feeling annoyed.

"It's nothing, it's alright."

Shangguan Wu comforted her and casually asked, "My mother-in-law and my little nephew are playing in the children's playground on the seventh floor. Would you like to go up and take a look?"

Rongrong froze, her expression conflicted. She didn't want to see anyone else, but they were Wubao's family, so it wouldn't be good not to see them.

Shangguan Wu saw her expression and made the final decision: "Let's go to the restaurant on the sixth floor. We're hungry and can get something to eat."

Rongrong quickly said, "It's my treat!"

Shangguan Wu smiled nonchalantly: "Okay!"

It wasn't lunchtime yet, so there weren't many people in the restaurant. Rongrong chose a corner to sit in and ordered five desserts and two drinks.

Rongrong stirred her drink idly with a straw, quietly watching Wubao talk on the phone.

Soon, Shangguan Wu hung up the phone and came over.

As soon as she sat down, Rongrong couldn't wait to ask, "Wubao, do you know Yan Yirou? What kind of person is she?"

Shangguan Wu shook his head: "I've only met her once, and I don't know her character."

Rongrong said "Oh" and guessed, "She must be a very nice girl."

Shangguan Wu raised an eyebrow: "Why did you suddenly bring her up?"

Rongrong pursed her lips: "Brother Xianli wants to marry her."

As she finished speaking, her eyes gradually reddened.

Shangguan Wu: "..."

Ji Xianli went on a blind date in place of Ji Xianreng, but ended up falling for the blind date himself.

wrong!

Could it be that Rongrong likes Ji Xianli?

Shangguan Wu immediately thought of a love triangle: Rongrong liked Ji Xianli, Ji Xianli liked Yan Yirou, and it was unknown who Yan Yirou liked, but Ji Mingjing liked Rongrong.

"Xianli praised her in front of his uncle, saying that she was very outstanding and a suitable marriage partner."

Rongrong recalled what she had heard standing at the study door and said with a dejected look, "But I am Xianli's fiancée. If he marries someone else, then I can't stay in the Ji family."

Shangguan Wu blinked, seemingly understanding, and asked pointedly, "Rongrong, is it that you can't accept Ji Xianli marrying someone else, or that you can't accept leaving the Ji family?"

Rongrong was stunned.

She stared blankly at Wubao: "Is there a difference?"

Shangguan Wu asked again, "You're very sad that Ji Xianli married someone else, aren't you?"

Rongrong bit her lip: "Mmm."

"Would you hurt Yan Yirou because of this? She stole your fiancé..."

Before Shangguan Wu could finish speaking, Rongrong shook her head excitedly: "No, no, it's because I'm not good enough that Brother Xianli married her. It has nothing to do with her."

Shangguan Wu looked at her; she was such a kind and innocent little girl.

“You said that if you leave the Ji family, you will have no home. But you have yourself. Wherever you live, that is your home, a home that belongs only to you.”

Rongrong stared in disbelief: "Is...is that so?"

Shangguan Wu retorted, "Isn't that so?"

Rongrong nodded blankly, as if that were true.

"Can I still live in the Ji family's house?" Rongrong asked nervously.

Shangguan Wu observed this and analyzed, "You don't object to Ji Xianli marrying someone else, which means you don't like him. Otherwise, you would have rushed out to question and criticize him long ago."
