Rong Feiyu shook off Wang Qing’s hand and directly took a seat by the window.
Wang Qing and Wang Song exchanged glances and sighed in relief.
In the afternoon, Rong Qi didn’t go to Capital University. After leaving Lu Chengzhou’s lab, she went straight back to Clearcreek Mansion.
Ye Nanshen was sitting in the courtyard, catching some breeze, still looking a bit pale.
“You’re back?” Ye Nanshen asked.
“Mhm,” Rong Qi replied, walked over, and stood beside him.
In front of Ye Nanshen was a collection of children’s toys—a peculiar sight.
Rong Qi chuckled, “I never thought that the dignified Mr. Ye would still have a childlike heart, playing with children’s toys.”
Ye Nanshen smiled, eyes slightly narrowed. He said, “Are you genuinely confused, or are you pretending not to understand? I’m hinting that it’s about time for us to have a child.”
Xu Yi, still carrying Rong Qi’s backpack, chimed in loudly, “Exactly! I’ve been back for quite some time, and there’s still no news from the lady’s belly. If this continues, people will start to question Master Shen’s potency!”
Xu Yi’s words were met with simultaneous rebukes, “Shut up!”
Ye Nanshen’s face darkened. He glanced at Xu Yi, who instinctively retracted his neck.
Rong Qi bit her lip, then turned to glare at Xu Yi. She said, “I haven’t even settled the score with you for messing up palm-reading for the girl from the next class! Do you want to keep slandering me?”
Xu Yi widened his eyes and asked, “We were talking about Master Shen, why drag me into this?”
“Because you’re stupid,” Zhuang Ling commented, unable to hold back.
Xu Yi glared at Zhuang Ling and said, “Say that again and 1’11 introduce you to that girl with a big foot from the next class!”
Zhuang Ling rolled his eyes, choosing not to engage. At one point, he wondered if their former drill sergeant had somehow trained Xu Yi into stupidity, explaining why he was all brawn and had no brains.
Ye Nanshen glanced at the toy tanks, robots, and helicopters on the stone table, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. He said, “Darling, you still haven’t answered my question.”
Rong Qi sat down and took a deep breath. She said, “Bro, I’m still a student, you know?”
“You’re an adult. It has nothing to do with being a student.” Ye Nanshen retorted.
Rong Qi was speechless.
Seeing Rong Qi’s stern, serious look—clearly attempting to persuade him—Ye Nanshen couldn’t help but chuckle.
Just then, Mrs. Hong walked out of the living room, carrying a cup of red date tea for Rong Qi, and said, “Madam, Master Shen is just teasing you! He had these toys bought from abroad to give them as gifts.”
Rong Qi sighed in relief and thought, ‘Phew! I was scared to death, thinking I was really going to have to start preparing to have a baby. But why did I feel a bit empty inside?’
Mrs. Hong asked Xu Yi to remove all the items from the table and then looked at Rong Qi with heartfelt gratitude. She said, “Madam, I truly have to thank you this time. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and they said it’s liver cancer. Fortunately, it was caught early, otherwise, the consequences could have been severe. I owe it all to your thoughtfulness.”
Tears streamed down Mrs. Hong’s face; her gratitude towards Rong Qi was genuine.
Rong Qi waved her hand dismissively and said, “It’s alright, Mrs. Hong. As long as you’re fine, that’s what matters. Do you have the doctor’s prescription? Can I take a look?”
“Of course, here it is!” Mrs. Hong wiped her tears and handed over the prescription from her pocket.
Rong Qi unfolded it and her furrowed brow relaxed slightly. She said, “It’s good it’s in the early stages. Mrs. Hong, I can write a prescription for you. If you trust me, you can get the medicine according to it.”
“Of course I trust you! Thank you so much, Madam,” Mrs. Hong said, her eyes filling with tears of gratitude..
