After everyone finished eating, Rong Xin escorted Gu Rong and Gu Xing back to their respective rooms. She then returned to her own room and began looking at the dress that Gu Qiang had bought for her.
Lying on the bed, Gu Qiang looked at her and couldn't help but think that she was still as gullible as ever.
Gu Qiang turned over, a barely perceptible smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Rong Xin thought the dress was made of very fine material, but in reality, it was just something he picked out randomly to make her happy and quiet down.
However, seeing Rong Xin's joyful expression, Gu Qiang felt inexplicably happy.
Gu Qiang chuckled as he got out of bed, put his arm around Rong Xin's waist, and whispered in her ear, "Wife, when I bought this dress, I knew it would look good on you. How about you wear it for me tonight?"
Upon hearing this, Rong Xin blushed and turned to glare at Gu Qiang: "The children are all at home, no fooling around."
Hearing this, Gu Qiang couldn't help but roll his eyes inwardly; it was always the same excuse.
If she hadn't always forbidden him from touching her, would he have always wanted to go out and find Bai Rou?
However, seeing that the Rong family was about to be destroyed, and that he didn't have many more chances to sleep with her, Gu Qiang said softly, unwilling to give up, "I'm not being silly. I just want you to wear some new clothes, my wife. Just wear them for me to see, my good wife."
Rong Xin couldn't resist Gu Qiang's gentle words and couldn't help but agree: "...Okay, I'll wear it for you to see, but go to sleep now, or you won't have the energy to go to work this afternoon."
Having received a satisfactory answer, Gu Qiang kissed Rong Xin on the cheek: "My wife, sleep with me. I haven't been able to sleep comfortably these past few days without holding you."
Since getting married, Gu Qiang has developed a bad habit of not being able to sleep without holding her. Rong Xin tried to change him several times, but Gu Qiang would say that he would be with her for life and then change the subject.
Rongxin also felt that this was a sign of his love for her, so she went along with him, saying, "You know, with this habit of yours, what will you do if you leave me in the future?"
"Then you can stay with me for the rest of your life." Gu Qiang developed this bad habit with Bai Rou. He was a little unaccustomed to sleeping with Rong Xin, but he gradually got used to it after sleeping together more often.
He just didn't expect that this simple lie would make Rong Xin devoted to him, believing that he loved her to death. As long as he could keep her happy, Gu Qiang was willing to continue to coax her.
However, thinking about the Rong family, Gu Qiang couldn't sleep at all. He hugged Rong Xin and whispered, "Wife, I heard some news recently about the Rong family. It's said that my parents might be leaving. Is it true? You're not going to leave with them, are you?"
Upon hearing this, Rong Xin couldn't help but frown, but she still remembered her parents' instructions and said with a smile, "That's not true. The Rong family has been in Beijing for generations. Where else could we go if we left? Where did you hear that?"
When Rong Xin denied it, Gu Qiang felt even more disgusted with her.
She's already married to him and has given birth to two children for the Gu family, so she's a member of the Gu family. But she doesn't wholeheartedly think about the Gu family; she only thinks about the Rong family. Gu Qiang thinks Rong Xin is really clueless.
However, since Rong Xin had said that, Gu Qiang was somewhat suspicious, but he didn't press her for more information.
But then he rolled his eyes and continued, "Wife, I'm just worried about you. There are so many rumors circulating outside. If anything really happens to the Rong family, you must tell me, and I will protect you."
If all else fails, you should take Rongbao and Xiaoxing and go with your parents. I'll hold them off here. As long as you're safe and sound, I'll give my life without regret.
Hearing Gu Qiang's words, Rong Xin was deeply moved, and she said that she had made the right choice in marrying him.
That's the Rong family's business. Once everything is ready, she herself will have nothing to do with the Rong family anymore, so why drag Gu Qiang, who knows nothing about it, into it?
With red eyes and a face full of emotion, Rong Xin grasped Gu Qiang's hand and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Qiang, the Rong family will be fine. If it really comes to a bad situation, I will divorce you. You can take good care of Rong Bao and Xiao Xing. I will understand even if you remarry."
Looking at Rong Xin's appearance, Gu Qiang clearly sensed that something was wrong. In addition, his recent investigation revealed that the Rong family was planning something big.
He just couldn't figure out where the things were, and he couldn't find a clue. Otherwise, he wouldn't be arguing with Rongxin here. He could have just taken the things away, kicked Rongxin, and not wanted the two children.
Finally, report the Rong family, and you'll get a reward for it—why not?
Seeing that Rong Xin was unmoved by reason, Gu Qiang decided to probe further. If all else failed, he would simply file a report and keep the Rong family in custody for now.
"If you were gone, I would commit suicide too. I will never let you be alone. Even if we die, we will be together." Gu Qiang hugged Rong Xin tightly. The two snuggled together, looking just like a pair of conjoined twins.
Rong Xin was moved by these words again, but in the end she didn't say anything.
For the next two days, Gu Rong would deliberately avoid Gu Qiang's presence, only sharing a space with him in unavoidable situations like meals.
Similarly, she inevitably watched as Rong Xin was fooled by Gu Qiang's sweet talk. Each time, Gu Rong would finish eating quickly and go straight back to her room.
Then came feeding Axi a lot of snacks, to the point that Axi almost developed a phobia of snacks.
However, Axi's daily intake is limited because it only has one mouth and can only eat so much each day. But under Gu Rong's supervision, it can only eat and absorb as much as possible to accelerate its level-up.
The afternoon after she returned, Gu Rong finally saw Rong Fanyu arrive.
When Gu Rong saw Rong Fanyu, she was so excited that she rushed over and hugged his leg tightly: "Uncle, did Grandpa send you?"
Rong Fanyu picked up Gu Rong, pinched her little face and said, "Yes, it was your grandfather who sent me. He said he'd take you there in a couple of days. Rongbao, do you want to go? And have you been feeling unwell or having another episode these past few days?"
Hearing this, Gu Rong knew it was about time: "I'm not feeling unwell, I'm in great shape, shall we go now?"
Rong Fanyu replied, "Yes, let's go now, but is it okay if Rongbao goes by herself?"
Gu Rong, who had previously discussed the matter, was puzzled as to why only she was going: "Isn't Mom going?"
Rong Fanyu, remembering his father's instructions, smiled and shook his head: "Your mother isn't going. She has to stay home to take care of your brother. What? You can't bear to leave your mother after just two days?"
Gu Rong tilted her head: "I'm reluctant to leave, but I also miss my grandparents, so I'll just go for two days and come back."
“Okay, you’ll be back in two days. Your mother has already packed your things. We’ll leave in a bit. See if there’s anything you need to take and pack it when you get back,” Rong Fanyu put Gu Rong down.
"Okay, I'll go get it right away," Gu Rong said, packing her things. Actually, there wasn't much to say; she just had a few things she wanted to tell Gu Xing.
But before they had taken more than a few steps, Rong Fanyu seemed to remember something and whispered in Gu Rong's ear, "By the way, your grandfather said to take some of that thing from last time too."
