Sang Yuwan's expression froze, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, unsure whether to answer or not.
Rong Zhi's gaze swept over them indifferently, but beneath the calm surface, undercurrents surged.
He gestured for her to answer the call.
Sang Yuwan hesitated for a few seconds before finally hanging up.
Then, I sent a WeChat message back.
"Second brother, I'm busy. I'll contact you later."
The other party replied instantly.
"good."
Rong Zhi seemed to see through everything, and the corner of his lips twitched almost imperceptibly.
Sang Yuwan lowered her eyes and looked at the sobbing Bo Xinglan, finding it inexplicably noisy.
The position of head of the Bo family is not an easy one to hold.
Bo Yuanshan also found it strange that she had to be in this position.
She's not a member of the Bo family.
Bo Yuheng and Bo Hanshan were, after all, his half-brothers.
If you're wary of them, you can hand them over to Rong Zhi.
Sang Yuwan suppressed her emotions, her eyes deep, "Third Aunt, you say you have evidence, then show it. If what Sixth Sister said is true, I will definitely seek justice for her."
His authority was immediately apparent in his words.
Fang Yi glanced at her and Rong Zhi, hesitating slightly, "If I give you the evidence, will you...?"
Sang Yuwan curled her lips into a smile. "You're worried I'll destroy the evidence."
Fang Yi's eyes flickered. "Everyone in Jiangcheng knows that you and Young Master Ming are childhood sweethearts with a deep bond. It's only natural to favor him."
Upon hearing this, Rong Zhi's deep and unfathomable pupils flashed with a hint of cold brilliance, and a thin layer of frost gradually covered his handsome face.
Sang Yuwan's eyes flashed, and a mocking smile appeared on her lips, "Third Aunt, you don't have any evidence, do you?"
Fang Yi trembled slightly, her whole body tensing up. "Of course I have evidence."
Sang Yuwan's eyes deepened with sarcasm. "If you have it, then produce it. If you don't, I will not let you off lightly for maliciously slandering others."
Rong Zhi looked at Bo Xinglan with a scrutinizing gaze, "Isn't the child in Sixth Sister's belly proof?"
Fang Yi was startled.
Sang Yuwan's heart skipped a beat, her thick, butterfly-like eyelashes fluttered twice, and she slightly raised her eyebrows.
"Second Master has reminded me. As soon as Young Master Ming returns from France, I will arrange for a paternity test between him and the child in Sixth Sister's womb. Third Aunt, what do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Bo Xinglan's palms turned icy cold, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably. She sniffed, her voice trembling, "No need for identification, this child is Senior Mingzhan."
Fang Yi interjected, "My Xinglan never lies. Could it be that she has mistaken someone else for someone else?"
Rong Zhi curled his lips into a smile. "It's normal to mistake someone for someone else when you're confused and infatuated." He paused for a moment, then turned to look at Sang Yuwan, his tone slightly raised. "Patriarch, don't you think so?"
Sang Yuwan's heart pounded like a drum, and two ice flowers froze in her dark pupils.
He was clearly mocking her; that night at the Grand Hotel, she mistook him for Bo Xingzhi.
She tensed her jaw slightly. "It's not impossible."
Bo Xinglan insisted, "No, I would never be wrong. The person I had relations with that day was Senior Mingzhan."
Sang Yuwan became increasingly irritable, and her face suddenly darkened considerably.
Household chores are not as easy to handle as work.
Moreover, today's events also involve the Ming war.
Seeing this, Rong Zhi raised an eyebrow slightly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. "Third Aunt, even if this matter goes to the Ming family, they will still want to see evidence. They can't just rely on Sixth Sister's one-sided story."
Fang Yi's neck turned red when she heard this. "If you don't believe me, take a look at this."
After saying that, she took out a stack of photos from her pocket, stood up, and handed them to Rong Zhi, saying, "Second Master, take a good look at them."
Rong Zhi didn't answer, but curled his lips into a smile. "Third Aunt, aren't you putting the cart before the horse? I'm not the head of the family."
Fang Yi shivered involuntarily, her lips turning colder. "I'm worried that these things will offend the head of the family's eyes. After all, she's just pregnant."
Rong Zhi's gaze darkened, his eyes now a turbulent, inky blackness. "Third Aunt, if you're really worried, then let's not look at any of these things. Let's just wait for Young Master Ming to return to the country."
Fang Yi's fingers stiffened, and the thing she was holding creased.
Sang Yuwan took a deep breath, stood up while holding onto the armrest of the chair, and said in a condescending manner, "Third Aunt, you are right. I am newly pregnant, and there are some unclean things around me. It's better not to see them."
Seeing that she seemed about to leave, Fang Yi hurriedly walked up to her and said anxiously, "Master, I was just saying it casually. Here you go."
Sang Yuwan glanced at her disdainfully, her gaze suddenly turning sharp. "Third Aunt, do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"
Fang Yi was terrified and couldn't help but lower her head, "I didn't mean that..."
Sang Yuwan glanced sideways. "Second Master, please tell Third Uncle that lies can't become truth. You should think things through carefully."
Rong Zhi uncrossed his legs, stood up, and his overcoat accentuated his upright posture. He pursed his lips and said, "Okay."
A low, deep sound, inexplicably tender.
Sang Yuwan's heart skipped a beat. She took a deep breath and walked straight out.
"Master of the family..." Fang Yi cried out anxiously.
Rong Zhi stood tall and elegant, a faint, cold smile playing on his lips. "Third Aunt, give me the things."
Fang Yi was taken aback.
Seeing this, Rong Zhi took a long stride to leave.
Fang Yi hurriedly caught up and handed over the things in her hands, "Second Master, please uphold justice for my Xinglan."
Rong Zhi was much taller than her, and standing in front of her, he exuded a powerful aura. "Third Aunt, I'll remind you one last time: know your place. Your behavior just now was already overstepping your bounds. If you continue to disrespect the head of the family, I will punish you severely."
The last sentence was emphasized.
Fang Yi's heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Rong Zhi took the things from her hands and strode away.
Fang Yi watched his retreating figure, her tense nerves gradually relaxing, and she let out a long sigh.
After a while, she bent down and helped Bo Xinglan up.
"Xinglan, I'm sorry you had to suffer."
Bo Xinglan's eyes were red, and she sniffed, "As long as I can marry Senior Mingzhan, this little grievance is nothing."
Fang Yi frowned, "Do you like him that much?"
A glint of light flashed in Bo Xinglan's eyes, "I've liked him for five whole years."
Fang Yi gently smoothed her slightly disheveled hair and said worriedly, "That woman, Sang Yuwan, isn't as easy to talk to as your older brother. I'm worried that in the end..."
The light in Bo Xinglan's eyes suddenly went out. "You called so many people today, my reputation is ruined. If I can't marry Senior Mingzhan, I... I don't want to live anymore..."
Fang Yi hugged her tightly and comforted her softly, "It's alright, your father has arranged everything for you. As long as you do as he asks, there won't be any problems."
Bo Xinglan's fingers were icy cold, and tears welled up in her eyes again. "But the child in my belly isn't..."
"Xinglan!" Fang Yi's face changed drastically in fright, and she quickly covered Xinglan's mouth.
“Mom…” Bo Xinglan’s eyes widened in shock.
-
Sang Yuwan came out of the hall and walked straight towards her newly purchased car.
She didn't want to stay here for even a second longer.
Just as she was about to get into the car, Rong Zhi called out to her.
"Sister-in-law."
Sang Yuwan's back stiffened slightly as she stood by the car and turned slightly to the side.
Rong Zhi walked a few steps to her side, his expression calm. "I have something to tell you."
Sang Yuwan frowned. "What is it?"
Rong Zhi spoke softly, "It's not convenient to talk here, how about we talk in the car?"
