Lin Meng got out of the car and did not go far to talk as Jiang Chengfeng indicated.
That day, she chose to protect Jiang Chengfeng, not because she had no principles at all when it came to Jiang Chengfeng stupidly. But, Jiang Polang was dead, and she couldn't just watch the only son of the Jiang family, and the misfortune.
Hook. However, Jiang Chengfeng's move of locking her up like that really hurt her. She also knew that Rong Ling had been wronged by what happened that time. So, in the overall situation, she
She would take care of the Jiang family. But when it came to some personal matters, she thought, it would be better to be more indifferent.
Jiang Chengfeng was slightly surprised by her persistence. He had already walked back, but when he heard Lin Meng's refusal and said lightly, "Let's talk here," he suddenly realized the change.
He had suspected this kind of change, after he did what he did to Lin Meng that day. However, he did not want to think deeply about this. He hoped that he could still win her complete trust as Brother Jiang.
But why, time and time again, Lin Meng's last glance at her before leaving passed before his eyes like a ghost. The meaning contained in it was a bit complicated, and he didn't want to guess deeply, because instinctively
will be afraid.
However, his intuition was right. This woman tried her best to protect him, but her heart was hurt because of his recklessness and temporary hot-headedness.[
"Mengmeng."
He looked at her, his mouth was a little bitter, and he wanted to say something to explain, but - he couldn't.
Whatever he said to her, no matter how grandly he asked her to leave Roong Ling, could not hide his selfishness. He wanted to possess her, so he would seize any opportunity to destroy her. But he absolutely did not want to see her.
Stay away from her.
"Mengmeng..."
He called out again, almost like a sigh, but also like a helpless plea.
The night blurred his face and his eyes, which actually made him, who usually looked sharp, feel a little fragile and sad.
Lin Meng sighed inwardly, then smiled and asked him softly.
"Brother Jiang, what do you want from me?"
He grasped the thing in his hand tightly, and his heart became dark, and he felt an inexplicable mania. He had been trapped in a cage for her for a long time. He longed for her, but no matter how cruel he was, he could not control her.
She grabbed him and pulled him deeply into her arms, just because he was in the cage and she was outside the cage. It was obviously such a short distance, but they could only look at each other from a distance.
He lowered his eyes slightly, with a sad light flowing in his eyes. The lust beast in his heart also began to howl in mourning.
The night wind blew through his bangs, messing up his eyebrows and making them harder to see clearly, but it also made people feel more and more like there was an inexplicable sadness surrounding him.
Lin Meng could feel it, but didn't know how to say it. Especially, as someone else's wife, with her husband sitting next to her, she had to remember her identity. There were some words and things that she couldn't take for granted.
, to do.
"sorry!"
But it was his low apology, a belated apology.
"I'm sorry about what happened that day."
What he said was very difficult. He is also a very proud man. Even if he did something wrong, because of his pride, he would rather make amends than say the three words "I'm sorry".
Lin Meng breathed a sigh of relief. She really needed this apology.
He said seriously again.
"I have always owed you an explanation for those things that happened before. I'm sorry that you were looked at with a "colorful" look. I don't know if you believe it or not, but those things were really not done by me. I...Father
When I was doing it, I had no chance to stop it. Mengmeng, my father really... loves Xiaolang very much!" [
He raised his eyes and looked steadily at Lin Meng. His black eyes glowed faintly like moonlight in the night, revealing a touch of sadness, but he looked at Lin Meng impartially.
His eyes show that he has no guilt in his heart, so he can let her look at him and explore him.
"I can try to explain to the outside world that it was not you who stole the information and reported it. But Mengmeng, I can't! There is a demon in my father's heart. If he doesn't let his demon out in this way, I'm worried about him.
If you don’t do anything and take action in the end, you can... you can—"
He paused and chose to suppress those frightening words. He just added weakly.
"I am his son, there is no reason to go against him, and besides, I am also Xiaolang's brother!"
As soon as he said this, an inexplicable power seemed to well up in his heart. He was no longer fragile, but showed his edge again. His eyes were bright, so bright.
Outshines the bright moon in the sky.
"Mengmeng, you'd better not care about anything, just watch from the side. In the competition between men, each one depends on his own ability!"
Lin Meng said nothing.
Jiang Chengfeng handed her bag over.
"Here, the phone you left behind that day is also in there."
Lin Meng stretched out his hand and took it.
Jiang Chengfeng suddenly turned his face, looked at Rong Ling sharply, and shouted loudly.
"What did you put on her?!"
Rong Ling's heart beat violently. But he had been on the battlefield for a long time, how could he fail because of Jiang Chengfeng's question. The expression on his face did not change at all. Therefore, Lin Meng turned his face in surprise.
When I looked at Rong Ling, what I saw was his calmness and composure.
"According to common sense, it is impossible for you to find Mengmeng so quickly. You must have installed something on her!"
Jiang Chengfeng analyzed it sharply.
He thought about what happened that day many times afterwards. He was still very confident in himself. It could be said that everything he had arranged was flawless. So what went wrong that made Rong Ling find it so quickly?
He doesn't believe in coincidences. There are so many coincidences in the world! He is a case handler and has been exposed to too many cases of all kinds. Many of them were attributed to coincidences at first.
But in the end, after his detection, most of them were clever human arrangements. So, after much thought, he boldly guessed that there was something about Lin Meng that he didn't know that could allow Rong Ling to find her quickly.
He saw Rong Ling's calmness, and at the same time he did not miss Lin Meng's slight surprise. From this point of view, Lin Meng really didn't know. So, if his guess was true, what did Rong Ling want to do? He
But you know what kind of harm it will do to the person involved to put things on someone else's back. This can be said to be a great distrust.
Rong Ling remained unmoved. Whatever Jiang Chengfeng wanted from him was simply extravagant talk.
Jiang Chengfeng understood, so he did not continue to pursue the case. Anyway, he had already planted the seed of a crisis of trust in Lin Meng. Whether it can sprout depends on how the external environment changes.
"Mengmeng, if anything happens, just come to me. If Rong Ling changes his mind, as the old saying goes, come to me and I will protect you and teach Rong Ling a lesson for you!"
Rong Ling, who was in the car, finally spoke up. He let out a sneer!
After opening the car door, he also walked out, pulled Lin Meng over, held her in his arms, and looked at Jiang Chengfeng haughtily.[
"Don't overestimate your capabilities, Jiang Chengfeng, you are no match for me!"
Jiang Chengfeng smiled coldly. "Ride on the donkey and read the songbook. Let's see as we go!"
But he was not willing to be outdone at all.
"Anytime!"
Rong Ling also sneered, then narrowed his eyes and teased a little coolly.
"However, I have to remind you first that you are in such a position now and yet you blatantly seduce other people's wives. You cannot bear the sin of deliberately destroying a marriage!"
He bit the last four words very hard.
Jiang Chengfeng is a public official, and his future depends on it. Therefore, he cannot afford to be hurt if he knows the law and breaks the law. When he chooses to take this path, the scenery is scenery, and sometimes, it is enough to make too many powerful people
He was frightened by human affairs, but everything has two opposite sides, that is, there must be times when he can't help himself and can't do whatever he wants.
As he wished, Rong Ling saw Jiang Chengfeng's angry face instantly appear.
He smiled lowly and pushed Lin Meng gently.
"Little boy, let's go!"
Lin Meng shook his head slightly as he looked at the surging dark situation and the tense situation between the two men who were destined to be unable to stand together calmly.
never mind!
Let's go and see.
"Brother Jiang, it's late at night. You should go home and rest early." She smiled at Jiang Chengfeng. "Rong Ling and I are leaving first."
Jiang Chengfeng nodded expressionlessly.
Lin Meng was protected by Rong Ling and got into the car first, followed by Rong Ling. When the car door closed, Lin Meng suddenly came over, lay down by the car window, and shouted to Jiang Chengfeng.
"Brother Jiang, I believe what you said!"
Jiang Chengfeng was stunned for a moment.
"It's late, go back to bed early. Good night!"
She shook her hand at him and leaned against Rong Ling.
The car was started by the driver at this moment, and when it passed him slowly, Jiang Chengfeng saw Lin Meng shrinking back and leaning on Rong Ling's chest, with half of his face pressed against it.
The way the little bird clings to you is a very intimate gesture!
She did not hide this intimacy.
His heart ached faintly!
"Mengmeng..."
He called softly and watched the car speed away. After a few steps, he sighed softly and said -
"Good night!"
These two words that revealed a touch of tenderness were destined not to reach the ears of the beauty who was far away. Just like that, they drifted into the slightly cool night wind. Just like his emotions, no matter how strong they were,
But he couldn't speak to her openly, so he could only stare intensely, feel helpless and sigh when she turned her back.
Rong Ling is right!
There are too many things that he has to worry about!
*
After returning home, Rong Ling asked Lin Meng.
"What do you think?!"
As for his little wife's attitude towards Jiang Chengfeng, he grasped some, but not all. However, he was still very clear that things were developing in his favor.
"What do you think?!" She pretended to be confused.
He didn't give her a chance to escape and said bluntly, "Jiang Chengfeng, Jiang family."
"Didn't Brother Jiang just say that I, a young woman, should take care of your men's affairs? If you want to fight, each of you can do it according to his own abilities!"
"So, you don't care at all?" His eyes suddenly brightened, as if they were inlaid with two round diamonds.
Lin Meng smiled and shook his head at him.
"I don't care, but I will take care of it."
There is a sense of Zen in what he said.
"What do you mean?!" he asked.
"I want to ensure the safety of the Jiang family. This will never change. When dealing with the Jiang family, if you can, please be noble. This is my expectation!"
These words were not fatal. Compared with the previous one, asking Rong Ling not to touch the Jiang family, this was already a big step forward. With Rong Ling's IQ, he naturally understood what she meant immediately. He used his intoxicating words
He looked at Lin Meng affectionately with his eyes and raised a smile.
"My dear, what's wrong with you?!"
She feigned anger. "Why, isn't this what you want to see?"
"Yes, why don't you want to!" He picked her up, rubbed her delicate face with his chin, and said with a smile.
"My wife has lifted so many bans all at once, which makes me a little flattered and deeply frightened!"
She was tickled by him and giggled. This man started to act weird again. Humph, we really should let our sons see when their always serious dad is so out of character!
She followed his words and laughed and scolded her. "Since you are so scared, I'll take it back."
"That's not okay. If you dare to take it back, I will fight with you..."
As he spoke, he kept rubbing her face with his chin, causing her little face to gradually turn red. He then used his hands to squeak her, making her feel like a snake in his arms.
, twisting back and forth, giggling with laughter, and finally couldn't stand his fuss anymore and begged for mercy softly.
"No, no more... cluck... no more... hahaha, no... don't... cluck..."
She begged her, and he made trouble with him.
It was just that suddenly, he suddenly stopped making trouble with her.
She blushed, panted, and slowly stopped smiling, thinking that he was finally kind enough to spare her, but she heard the man's harsh voice.
"why are not you sleeping?"
what's the situation?!
This is not what I said to her!
With a smile that she couldn't hold back, she turned around and looked around. She saw Xiao Youyou standing at the door of the kitchen under the dim wall lamp, eyes wide open, looking at them blankly.
It looked like he had seen something particularly surprising!
You really get what you want!
Lin Meng immediately felt embarrassed and hurriedly wanted to jump off Rong Ling's body. She felt that she was the mother of a child, and it was a little embarrassing for her son to see such a childish scene.
Rong Ling hugged her forcefully and refused to let her move. He just looked at the little guy, raised his eyebrows, and asked coldly.
"Why didn't you reply?"
It seemed that the person who was playing around like an unstable young man just now was not him at all!
The little guy's tender voice came over.
"I'm thirsty, come down to find some water!"
The voice is a little weak.
"Daddy?!"
He asked again, as if to confirm whether the man in front of him was his father.
Rong Ling scolded him calmly.
"After you finish drinking, go to bed quickly. Also, don't drink too much, or you'll have to go to the toilet at night!"
The little guy relied on his instinct that had been suppressed by Rong Ling. Hearing these words, the little guy said "oh" obediently.
Satisfied, Rong Ling hugged Lin Meng seriously and went upstairs.
Then, he heard the sound of running "kick, kick, kick, kick" coming from behind, and a small meat ball suddenly bumped into him. Two small arms also hugged his legs.
"Daddy!"
The little guy seemed to be confirmed. This time his voice was a little louder, and he also showed a kind of joy like a little bird jumping for joy.
Rong Ling silently lowered his head to look.
The little guy opened his arms, raised his clean little face, and said a little coquettishly.
"hug!"
Lin Meng smiled lowly. Rong Ling had a cold face, not much moved by him.
The little guy raised his hands, opened his big dark eyes, and looked at him stubbornly. The face was somewhat similar to his mother's, probably because it was too late at night, and the little guy was still sleepy.
I mean, so, with such a charming and naive aura, it makes people's hearts feel a little weak.
Lin Meng naturally softened her heart at the first moment. Seeing that Rong Ling was not moving, she pushed him and jumped down. She picked up little Youyou from behind and stuffed her forcefully into Rong Ling's arms.
"Num, hold me."
Of course you must pamper your children appropriately!
The little guy's two little arms immediately and automatically wrapped around his neck, and at the same time, his two little legs also rubbed hard and jumped up.
Only then did Rong Ling reach out and hold the little guy steady.
The little guy raised his face and rubbed Rong Ling's chin. His eyes were slightly half-closed, curved like crescent moons. There was a quiet sweetness. Rong Ling's face darkened at first, because he could do it.
I'm sure my son saw everything he shouldn't have seen. This made him feel slightly awkward and embarrassed.
However, he had a strong heart and quickly passed this hurdle. Later, when he saw his son's appearance, his heart softened. Not only did he follow his son, but he also rubbed his face as his son wished.
.
The son chuckled with a lazy and sleepy look, which made Rong Ling break his skills and develop a faint smile.
"Let's go!"
He stretched out his hand towards Lin Meng.
Lin Meng smiled, put her small hand into his big palm, and he held it, then followed his pace and walked slowly upstairs.
The light shone on the bodies of the three people, gradually stretching their shadows to become very long, and then they intertwined with each other and merged into one.
Night, very peaceful!
It's also very beautiful.
*
The next day, Rong Ling took action. He first went to Rong Qi and expressed his willingness to come back. Rong Qi was naturally overjoyed and immediately called everyone who should be called over. Everyone sat down
They got together, had a brief chat, and then said that in order to welcome Rong Ling's return, they would hold a banquet and invite a wide range of guests. Firstly, this was to officially announce Rong Ling's appointment and express respect for him; secondly,
Come, let others keep an eye on it, Rong Ling is back, so anyone who makes small moves, please be patient; thirdly, the Rong family is tired of coping with the recent blows, and the overall morale is a bit low.
This banquet is a lively and lively event, and it can also change everyone's mood; fourthly, the banquet is a good opportunity to interact with various business leaders. If there is a chance to facilitate a few big businesses, that is also very good. Again
If that doesn't work, you can also communicate with various parties about your feelings. Even if you invite someone who doesn't agree with you, you can still glean some information based on the other person's reaction.
Rong Ling agreed with this approach. Li Lanqiu mentioned that power, so he might as well make it bigger and let them take a good look, so that he can tell him what he wants early.
As Rong Ling's spouse, Lin Meng had to attend such a banquet. As soon as Rong Ling made the decision, she called Lin Meng to inform her of such a banquet and asked her to prepare well.
In fact, this should be regarded as the first time she officially attended a social venue in City B as Mrs. Rong. Shuangmu's time could only be attributed to an internal employee exchange meeting and was not considered a formal social circle. This time, she was
Those invited will be the big guys, rich men, big names, talents, and ladies in City B. It can be regarded as a gathering of the elites in City B. Such an occasion will be a small challenge for Lin Meng, but it will definitely be
A great opportunity to show your charm.
Therefore, Lin Meng is very cautious about this. She hopes that when she and Rong Ling attend together and stand in front of those outstanding people, they will feel that she, Lin Meng, is definitely worthy of standing in this position!
At the same time, although she didn't like the Rong family very much in her heart, compared to the fact that the Rong family completely rejected her and looked down upon her before, now that the Rong family allowed her to attend such an occasion generously, she couldn't help but feel a little happy.
This is already a huge improvement!
And she firmly believes that everything will only get better and better.
She asked Miao Qing for help, asking her to help her style and choose clothes, and then asked her to help prepare a copy of the general information of the invited guests. She needed to take a good look. An excellent hostess should be
She can get to know every guest and make every guest feel respected. When the time comes, she hopes she can help him.
When she was preparing these, Rong Ling laughed at her and said that she didn't need to be so serious. She just needed to be herself and she would definitely amaze everyone. In fact, he didn't want her to be too tired. She had to remember so many guests in one day.
The information is really not easy.
"My dear, I have confidence in you." He coaxed her.
She smiled sweetly.
However, she will still prepare what should be prepared. She is not the dodder flower that depends on him to grow, let alone the beautiful vase. If she appears, she will definitely be stunning and make him absolutely jealous!
But just as she was preparing this with a touch of joy and high fighting spirit, Rong Ling called her and told her apologetically that she couldn't go!
Why?!

I strongly recommend the article "The Lieutenant Colonel's Bride" written by my friend Ah Li, ISBN 383147.
This is a very exciting article about high-ranking officials, and it is currently being serialized. Don’t miss it^_^.
Introduction:
The first time they met, she was forcefully kissed by a stranger without any defense.
When we met for the second time, he was wearing a straight military uniform and looked very majestic. He was chatting and laughing with a lady.
Uh, soldiers can also act like hooligans? She ruined his good deeds, and he grabbed her hand and prohibited her from leaving.
She looked at his big dark hand grabbing her wrist and frowned displeased: "What are you doing?"
He said seriously: "You scared away my future wife."
"so what?"
"You must give me a wife." At that moment, this domineering man forcibly took her to meet his parents as his fiancée...
