ur teeth!”It's as if she just took that hit, it's worse than being poisoned!At his command, she moved. Though, her head was still fuzzy.After she finished brushing her teeth, he grabbed a towel and r..."Think about it yourselves!"

The little guy was becoming more and more composed, acting like he didn't care what they said or did. He seemed to have said everything he needed to say and done everything he could to help.

Turning, he twisted his head to look at Old Master Yan.

"Master, can we play now!"

Master Yan's heart flickered with amusement, but his face remained stoic, befitting a master. He merely nodded curtly. The little boy then beckoned to Little Haohuo and led him aside. Rong Shi, who was following closely behind, grew uneasy. Thinking the mischievous boy intended to escape, he moved to apprehend him. However, Rong Si suddenly intervened, pinning him down with a forceful hand. Rong Shi turned to look at Rong Si, his face etched with anxiety. Rong Si tightened his grip, pressing firmly on his arm while shaking his head. Then, his gaze calmly followed the two boys as they walked away.

"You still owe me two yo-yos," the little boy said to Xiao Haohuo as he walked away. There, on the grass, were two camouflage backpacks, obviously belonging to a child.

Then Xiao Haohuo, seeming unwilling to accept defeat, raised his voice a little and cried out, “Just you watch, I’ll win back soon.”

Two little fellows each took out their small bags and pulled out colorful, round yo-yos. They started playing in the mud pit they had prepared beforehand, completely absorbed in their game. Their carefree attitude wasn't just innocence; it was more like confidence in their own abilities, so they weren't afraid of anyone watching them.

When Rong Shi caught sight of this, a tinge of shame passed through his heart. For someone in his forties, he was surprisingly calm, even less so than a child. The others who witnessed this scene also felt ashamed, unsure how to handle such a mischievous little fellow.

They don't even look at them!

At this point, Old Master Yan finally cracked a smile. His pride and joy, his most prized disciple, had truly lived up to expectations, bringing him nothing but surprises. What's more, Dayang had arrived quietly, without a sound. With Dayang here, this place would be under his control now!

He also noticed there was one more person. The moment Dai Yangyi appeared, he felt it. He worked in the punishment department and sometimes dealt with detectives. He had a keen eye for detail and perception, always stronger than others. When Dai Yangyi appeared, all he had to do was think about it and he could order his men to grab Xiao Youyou, but he didn't, because he changed his mind.

The little guy was quite interesting, to say the least. He was swayed by the little guy's words. Trying to steal from the little guy for a chance to meet Lin Meng wasn't a good idea.

Rong Si released Rong Shi's hand, then pressed it again just as he was about to let go completely, signaling him not to move. He took a step and walked towards Xiao Youyou. Lao Ye meticulously observed Rong Si's expression, feeling no threat from him, so he didn't move.

"Can I play with you guys!"

Feng Si crouched down and looked at Xiao Youyou and Xiao Haohuo.

Xiao Hao didn't say a word, he looked at Xiao Youyou with his eyes.

Xiao Youyou asked him, "Will you play!"

"Yes, how could I not!" Rong Si responded loudly, brimming with confidence. "I used to play this, but I was a master!"

Who hasn't had a mischievous childhood!

Xiaoyou's eyes lit up and she turned to look at Xiaohuao. As their eyes met, the two children instantly understood each other, so Xiaohuao nodded.

"Do you have this!"

Little Youyou held out her hand, pinching a round little bead between her thumb and index finger. This bead was definitely no ordinary glass bead; it was a gemstone bead that Lao Wu Yaofei had brought back from Africa and carefully polished. Although these beads were of mixed colors, each one was still quite valuable. However, when Yaofei had given Youyou a bag full of beads, he had only let her play with them.

Those who know, will know. This child is clearly well-cared for, given anything they want! From another perspective, this child exudes wealth and privilege, something that not every other child can match easily.

"Such beads, I don't have any!"

The little boy smirked, his dark eyes were exceptionally beautiful, radiating intelligence. "If you want to play, I can lend you three first!"

It's a loan, so you have to pay it back!

Rong Si felt a little joy in his heart, thinking that this little guy was actually quite clever. He nodded in agreement and borrowed three from him, then started playing. At first, Rong Si was clumsy and kept losing as he got familiar with the rules. He ended up borrowing another three from Xiao Youyou. Finally, relying on his age, physical prowess, and experience, once he got a feel for the game, he gradually started winning back. However, he had ulterior motives, so he didn't let go completely, always ensuring that he lost one or two points to Xiao Youyou.

When Mrs. Yan arrived with juice and cake in hand, greeting the little ones happily, Rong Si had only one ball left to win from Xiao Youyou. As for Xiao Haohuo, he was having a back-and-forth game but quickly managed to maintain a draw.

"Youyou, Haohuo, stop playing and come have some snacks. After you finish eating, your daddy will take you home!"

Daddy!

Xiao Youyou's eyes lit up. She didn't even care about the spinning top on the ground anymore. She turned around, her little face beaming with excitement as she looked towards the source of the voice. Sure enough, she saw her tall father walking together with Old Mrs. Yan.

"Daddy!"

The little guy let out a cheer, and with childish glee, he flung open his legs and bolted towards Rong Ling!

Daddy doesn't often come to pick them up, oh. He really likes it when Daddy comes to pick him up, and he also likes it when Mommy comes to pick him up.

The little boy ran past like a little tiger, without the slightest bit of composure. In Rong Si and the others' eyes, the child who seemed like a little adult suddenly disappeared, only restoring his childish liveliness and innocence. When he rushed to Rong Ling's side, he was easily picked up by Rong Ling with open arms, and at that moment, he let out a giggle, full of joy, and the entire backyard could only hear his laughter.

"Daddy, Daddy, are you the only one who came!"

"Not enough for me to come alone!" Rong Ling murmured sarcastically.

The little guy giggled, hugging Rong Ling's arm with both hands and rubbing his chin contentedly on his shoulder. Little Haohao was pouting his chubby little butt, holding onto Rong Ling's thigh with both hands, half of his body hanging on him. He had been pampered by Lin Meng for a while, and his originally somewhat thin frame was now noticeably plumper.

"Daddy!"

Little Hao was also delighted to shout.

Rong Ling reached out a hand and rubbed his little head. Then he raised his eyes, his sharp gaze sweeping over Rong Si and the others. Everyone except Rong Si looked away nervously, or bowed their heads.

Rong Ling didn't say anything, he just put Xiao Youyou down and let the two little guys go wash their hands and then have some snacks. The two little guys took advantage of the faucet in the backyard to wash their little hands, and then they smiled and accepted the snacks handed over by Grandma Yan. They each said "thank you" sweetly, plopped down on the grass, and happily ate them up.

During this process, besides the two little ones' eating and drinking sounds, there was no other movement. Only these two seemed oblivious to the pressure emanating from Rong Ling's body. Rong Si and the others stood there, unable to leave or stay, feeling extremely awkward. Rong Ling's deep eyes covered them, like a net, making them feel trapped like silkworms in their cocoons, their scalp tingling with discomfort.

This is simply torture!

Some people say that mental damage is always greater than physical damage!

Nobody wants to face such humiliation in this way.

The atmosphere dared not make a sound; it was simply too unbearable!

This torture continued until the two young boys had each demolished their little cakes and finished their small glasses of juice.

"I'm full now, thank you, Teacher Mother!"

Two little kids were very sweet, their pretty looks were adorable, and they amused Old Lady Yan so much that she giggled. She pulled the two children up from the grass and patted their bottoms to remove the grass blades.

What are you doing here!

Rong Ling began to settle accounts, with a proud and icy demeanor that was hard to bear.

Rong Si and the others didn't speak.

Rong Ling didn't expect them to speak up.

Whatever you're thinking, put it aside.

A stern countenance, radiating an aura of authority and warning.

"I don't like it when people touch my children. This is the first time, so I won't pursue it, but -- next time, there will be consequences!"

Having said that, a gaze filled with palpable hostility swept over every member of Rong Si's group, chillingly cold.

He has the capability to warn these people. From Rong Si and the others appearing here to his arrival, it happened incredibly fast. Even if they managed to take advantage of him at the beginning, wanting to meet Lin Meng alone by holding onto Xiaoyou was impossible. With Rong Ling's abilities, he could only intercept them before that. And then, unleashed his wrath! Once this kind of person is pushed too far, there's basically no room for turning back. Just like how they drove him out of the Rong family earlier!

This kind of bone-deep arrogance is awe-inspiring, and it commands respect.

None of Rong Si and the others responded, not even a weak excuse like "They're just here to play with Little Youyou." Because, Rong Ling was too intelligent. No matter how they defended themselves, they would only make themselves look ridiculous and foolish. It was better to remain silent, let Rong Ling finish speaking, and then quickly leave. Being around him was truly stressful. This was also one of the reasons why the people in the tribe, despite knowing his excellence, still drove him out – because they were simply unable to control him!

Rong Ling sneered inwardly, thinking these people weren't too foolish. They hadn't pushed it to the end. Seeing them like this, he retracted his gaze and instructed the two young ones.

Let's say goodbye to Master and Mistress!

Two little guys politely said goodbye. Rong Ling led the two little guys away. Youyou, however, pulled on Rong Ling's pants leg.

"Daddy, wait for me a moment."

Then, raising his eyes, he looked around.

"Grandfather, you still owe me a bead, but it's alright. You kept us company for so long, it was quite a treat. Consider that bead as a thank-you gift!"

Having said that, the little boy mischievously winked and grinned. However, his smile was like a fleeting flower blossom, quickly disappearing from the corner of his lips. Then, the little boy twisted his head, skipped with unconcerned ease, and grasped Rong Ling's big hand, happily following behind him.

Left Rong Si standing there, somewhat amused and bewildered. He couldn't help but sigh again in his heart -- what a sly little imp!

This kid actually knows everything. He originally planned to use the game to build a relationship with the little guy, and secondly, since he owed the little guy a favor, he could use it as an excuse to visit him. However, he didn't expect that the little guy knew he was letting him win, but he didn't say anything, still playing very excitedly and enthusiastically. When he left, he even blocked his way, cutting off any thought he had of getting closer to him again.

This little guy!

That's amazing!

Thus, he even wanted to invite Rong Ling back to the Rong family!

Look at the young man now, in this state! With these two fathers around, at least he can rest easy and go to his grave with peace of mind!

＊

Since Rong Ling had spoken, forbidding them from harming the children again, Rong Si and others thought hard after returning. They came up with a new plan this time, involving someone – Rong Man.

Rong Man is the daughter of Rong Sanbo and also the daughter of the Rong family. Her father is in trouble now, and the Rong family is suffering along with him. With her status, she certainly cannot stand idly by. She should contribute her share, and naturally, she needs to do so. Rong Man is close friends with Rong Ling, and her relationship with Lin Meng should be good. Since she is leading the way, it's unlikely that they will be turned away at the door of the Rong Ling family.

They approached Rong Man, who initially refused. She was close to Rong Ling, but precisely because of their closeness, she understood him well and knew that the Rong family's approach to Lin Meng at this time went against Rong Ling's principles. She was anxious about her father's situation and had been running around these days, but Rong Ling had already assured her that he would do everything in his power to save her father. Therefore, asking her to find Lin Meng was unnecessary. However, the members of the Rong family used the entire Rong family's future as leverage, and with so many people and voices, Rong Man was eventually persuaded. Moreover, she also hoped that Rong Ling could return to the Rong family, and no one else was more suitable for that position; and if he took that position, when it came to rescuing her father, his actions might be more powerful and swift.

As children, who would bear to see our father suffer!

So, Rongman came to look for Lin Meng.

After Rongjia succeeded in persuading Rongman, he tasted the sweetness of "many hands make light work". This time, he brought a large group of people with Rongman, nearly twenty in total. He hoped that these people could overwhelm Linmeng with their chatter and persuade her to agree. If all else failed and he needed to resort to begging, having almost twenty people plead together would certainly be more effective!

It was precisely such an arrangement that gave Rong Qikeng, with his insatiable ambition, a chance to strike. Even though he had reached this point today, his narrow-mindedness still wouldn't allow Rong Ling to take that position. In his eyes, anyone else could replace him, but Rong Ling couldn't. There was a strong repulsion toward Rong Ling deep within his bones, an emotion so powerful that it completely overwhelmed his rationality, causing him to disregard the collective interests of the Rong family and forget the elite education he had received over the years. All that remained was the selfish desire to crush that person!

He did something!
