t of her nerves and endurance. The fear of being seen by passersby made her tears flow like streams, soaking Rong Ling’s hand. Rong Ling sighed inwardly, feeling a pang of reluctance. He held her clos...This is cyberbullying!

Rong Ling is back!

Or, perhaps, Rong Ling's chilling side reappeared!

The sudden shift from warmth to cold, the stark contrast between gentleness and ruthlessness, made him truly realize what this woman in his hand meant to him. Looking at his previous behavior, Rong Liu suddenly realized he had made a mistake, and it was one that could never be rectified!

Feng Ling, he probably won't be able to persuade him back!

"Uncle, he has already told me the details of this matter."

Rong Ling opened his mouth, speaking very slowly. His gaze swept over every member of the Rong family present, with a profound look that first stunned them and then fixed on Rong Liu.

After Rong Si took people to follow Master Rong to get tested, the person with the highest status left in the living room was Rong Liu. Moreover, it was Rong Liu who spoke first and said that Lin Meng stole it. Therefore, Rong Ling wanted to deal with him first.

What's that file about Tell me.

Because he was too calm and confident, his tone was so arrogant that Rongliu felt a little uneasy inside and lost his confidence. He could say those words to Linmeng directly, but towards Rongling, he absolutely dared not. When Rongling was in power, his prestige was so deep that it was ingrained in people's hearts. Even though he was Rongling's sixth uncle, he didn't dare to be domineering.

Umm, he replied.

Upon hearing the response, Rong Ling immediately let out a cold snort.

"Just for this little trinket, you had someone steal it and risked your reputation! Uncle Six, you really underestimate me!"

His pupils contracted, and his expression grew even colder.

"Sixth Uncle, I'm still calling you Sixth Uncle because I value the years we've spent together. We've worked together for many years. Think about it carefully yourself. With my status and position, would I risk stealing something so insignificant!"

He, however, took full responsibility for the theft and distanced Lin Meng from it entirely. He considered those dirty affairs to be a defilement of her every time they were associated with his women.

Rong Li's heart skipped a beat, as if struck by lightning. What Rong Ling said really hadn't occurred to him. Thinking back on everything Rong Ling had done, his heart suddenly surged with waves of emotion. How could he have forgotten such an important point as Rong Ling had said!

This man, Rong Ling, has always scorned explanations. In his eyes, power and strength are the only truths that matter. However, for his woman, he's willing to go the extra mile and explain things to those who haven't had as much exposure to the secrets of the East Asia Group as Rong Liu has.

"This project was already halfway finished when I was still in that position. If I had ulterior motives, I could have easily found someone to take over. To be frank, it's been some time since I left, yet this project has only just started to take shape under your management. This efficiency is appalling. Had I been in charge, the product would have already entered the packaging and promotion phase, ready for launch. What use is a project that severely lags behind schedule like this"

Sixth Uncle, you say I'm going to steal this from you You really underestimate me!"

“Furthermore,” he paused, let out another cold snort, his icy eyes filled with mockery. “When I left, there were several products under development at A-Dong that were better than this one, and two that were much, much better. They were top priority. I won't mention the specific names, but you should have a good idea in your heart, Uncle Six. Since I wanted to take something, why wouldn't I go for those two instead of a small character like this Besides, you should know that the research and development of these product items was led by me back then, and it took me a lot of effort. Uncle Six, let me say something unpleasant – if I were to bring all these things out and use them in my own company, what could you do”

Rong Liu was so startled that his eyes widened. The others were terrified, their hearts pounding in their chests, not daring to breathe a word. Given Rong Ling's tyrannical nature, if he said something, he could definitely do it. He wasn't a good person; when he wanted to be ruthless, he was utterly merciless. But he always came at things head-on, never resorting to stealing other people's ideas!

Rong Ling's voice turned sinister, his disdain and disgust for Rong Liu and the others blatant.

"But just such a little thing, is it worthy of using against me!"

He Rongling would be willing to accept a scheme that benefited him, even if it was morally questionable. This project, which appeared highly profitable in the eyes of others and could guarantee a small company's success for a year with minimal effort, meant nothing to him!

With a brazen yet disgusted tone, Rong Liu's face flushed red. Though others weren't entirely clear on the other projects Rong Ling mentioned, they were all experienced in the workplace and could understand the gist of his words. Simultaneously, they grasped that Rong Ling was disdainfully dismissing the person who framed him, finding their methods to be low-class, even making framing someone a pathetic joke worthy of contempt!

Unconsciously, these people began to mourn for the person who had been framed. They couldn't help but wonder what that person had gone through, putting so much effort and thought into this scheme, only to end up with no face left as he was mercilessly ridiculed by Rong Ling. One couldn't help but imagine how furious he must be behind the scenes!

At the same time, because of Rong Ling's words, everyone completely believed that stealing something was absolutely impossible for Rong Ling to do. Then, it became, there was one person or several people here who led this frame-up!

This is really embarrassing!

Those who knew they were innocent suddenly felt awkward and angry. They thought to themselves, "Which coward is doing this At such a crucial moment, he's bringing shame upon the Rong family." You can disgrace the Rong family all you want, but because of you, Rong Ling cannot return, which makes your sin much greater. Several young men from the Rong family, with blood rushing hot in their veins, couldn't control their eyes that blazed with anger. They clenched their fists tightly, feeling an urge to beat whoever was responsible mercilessly once they were found. Their anger was so intense that when one fist clenched, it even produced a cracking sound.

Lin Meng watched this scene silently, a smile playing on her lips.

Rong Liu's face turned rather unpleasant by this point. He wasn't forgetful to this extent, so he remembered clearly how he had spoken to Lin Meng in such a manner before. The damp patch on his pant leg served as a constant reminder of it. He remembered vividly how Lin Meng had smashed the teacup at his feet and coldly told him to pay for his actions. Considering Rong Ling's power and the extent to which he protected Lin Meng...

Right as Rongliu had this bad thought, he got hit!

"Uncle Liu, with your wisdom, how could this have happened today I think you must know what's going on!"

This is a hundred percent sure!

His icy gaze was not on an elder, nor a peer, but like that of a majestic emperor looking down upon a subordinate who had erred. He needed this subordinate to step forward and acknowledge their mistakes, pleading for leniency. Otherwise, if he were to explicitly point out the offenses, this imperial decree would leave no room for personal feelings!

He's cut this case short beforehand, meaning the burglary. It could only be that someone inside his home betrayed him. He has nothing to do with it, neither does his wife or his mistress!

His piercing gaze, icy and severe, sent shivers down Rong Liu's spine. A numbness took hold, as if his very being was frozen solid, unable to move. Yet, deep within, a flicker of defiance remained, a desperate hope to endure this chilling scrutiny and somehow weather the storm.

So, he didn't move, standing his ground, pretending to be oblivious, hoping this would just blow over. The most important thing was, he was Rong Liu, Rong Ling's sixth uncle and Lin Meng's sixth uncle. As an elder, how could he apologize to the younger generation Besides, he couldn't possibly face everyone here and go back without any shame!

He stayed silent, his eyes lowered as he avoided Rong Ling's gaze. Instead, with the corner of his eye, he secretly watched, comforting himself in his heart that what he had done at Rong's house, taking that thing and making those suspicions, wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Even if he spoke it out, it wouldn't cause any controversy.

He needs to understand who he's dealing with, and who he has offended. His kind of logic only works on ordinary people. But, is Lin Meng an ordinary person Is Rong Ling an ordinary person!

Rong Ling waited for three minutes, her patience finally exhausted!

"Uncle Liu!"

He called out, his cold eyes fixed on him, giving him one last warning. This was the final chance!

As people age, they tend to become more concerned with their reputation. Therefore, they missed this opportunity.

Rong Ling didn't hesitate. His handsome eyes narrowed slightly, and he opened his mouth dangerously.

"I give you two choices!"

Rong Liu's heart tightened, anger rising within her. She thought to herself, "What does Rong Ling mean by this!" He claims to be an elder, yet he shows no mercy!

With eyes fully open, he looked at Rong Ling, a thin layer of anger visible on his taut face.

He thinks he's something, what weight does he carry in Rong Ling's heart He's such a cold-hearted and ruthless person, he doesn't care about you at all. Even if you were his father, he would dare to kill you directly. He was ruthless enough to deal with Lin Meng back then, against Rong Liu, he would absolutely be willing to do it!

"Firstly, you need to apologize to my wife with a sincere apology. You have to do it properly – offer a verbal apology, serve tea, and give her a gift. None of these can be skipped until I hear my wife personally say she forgives you!"

"You—" Hearing this, Rong Liu got angry. A breath of air was stuck in his throat, almost unable to come out.

This is way too arrogant!

But Rong Ling wasn't finished speaking. Coldly and bloodthirstily, he continued.

"Second, you don't have to do anything, just wait for me back home!"

Words unspoken, but the wise can sense the underlying danger!

"What do you mean!" Rong Liu's face turned ashen, the usually gentle expression contorted into a ferocious snarl.

He has also been watching Rong Ling's rise for so many years, and he is naturally familiar with Rong Ling's methods. This second path is simply cutting off his retreat. No, this is not a path at all!

"I was just questioning it!" he roared angrily, defending himself loudly. So, what For just that one sentence, they hit him in the face and even threatened him!

"But just a suspicion!" Rong Ling's eyes flickered slightly, whispering Rong Liu's words softly. The soft tone should have been gentle, but it gave off a chill that crawled up from the soles of one's feet to the heart!

As expected, Rong Ling's face suddenly darkened. It was the most unpleasant expression she had shown since entering the room!

"Humph!"

A cold snort, like a muffled thunderclap, rolled over everyone's hearts, weighing them down with a sense of heaviness.

"To doubt is a sin! My woman, whoever dares to doubt her, I'll make them pay!"

Speaking, he cast a menacing and chilling gaze over each member of the Rong family present. His words were addressed not only to Rong Liù but also to every other person in the room, and to any other members of the Rong family who were absent but still disrespectful!

Everyone Lin Meng had ever clashed with felt a shiver run down their spine. They instinctively took a step back. In their eyes, Rong Ling was no longer just a successful businessman. He was a grim reaper wielding a hook, able to casually erase someone's name with a flick of his wrist.

Yikes!

It's really scary!

I'll be waiting for you all before Uncle Zun and the others return.

He suddenly smiled, a light, almost as swift and sharp as a scythe passing through. It was fleeting, like a white horse galloping past, leaving behind a cold, crescent-moon like gleam. It resembled the smile of Death itself, the chilling mirth that arose from the heart of one who had finally found amusement in the impending reaping of life – a heart as dark and still as death's own.

Cold, so cold!

More frightening!

And he, no longer opening his mouth to speak, simply sat there, with a dignified and solemn demeanor, like a cold and stern enforcer. He would judge others’ actions based on their deeds, and finally deliver a cold and emotionless verdict.

He's such a pain!

Every minute, every second of delay is a silent torment. And the countdown hourglass has already started, the time for self-help is limited to before Zunshu and others return. But Zunshu and others do not know when they will be back, perhaps an hour later, perhaps half an hour, perhaps ten minutes, perhaps a few minutes, or perhaps, in the next minute!

Tortured by indecision, I lingered and hesitated, the uncertain wait making time seem to speed up and slow down. My whole being became restless.

Finally, one person stepped forward first. It was the one who had spoken rudely to Lin Meng before.

"I apologize!"

Even though family members may be arrogant, when faced with a strong opponent, especially one who once led them, they must bow their heads in deference!

A man who looked to be in his thirties, his face flushed as if he were drunk, clearly showed signs of extreme embarrassment. He took a few steps forward, stood straight, and with a heavy sigh, bowed deeply towards Lin Meng, saying...

"I apologize for what I just said!"

After finishing, she was still blushing and looked at Lin Meng.

He waited, waiting for Lin Meng to speak. Because Rong Ling had said, he needed his wife to say the word forgiveness with her own mouth, that was how it would be settled.

He thought he had already made enough sacrifices, but Rong Ling's thin lips curled up, and he coldly rebuked.

"No sincerity!"

The man's face flushed even redder, looking at Rong Ling, he naturally didn't dare to have the slightest anger or rebellious heart. Moreover, among the younger generation of the Rong family, many admired and worshipped Rong Ling, which is why when Rong Ling left the company before, some outstanding young talents wanted to follow him. And today, most of the young people who came to this door were very respectful to Rong Ling, with sincere intentions, wanting to invite him back. So, after meeting Rong Ling's eyes for ten seconds, the young man gritted his teeth and asked.

"Do you have any tea!"

"

Someone laughed with a 'poof'!

"

The young man angrily turned his head and glared at the source of the voice. He saw a young man around twenty-four or five, with a smile that was hard to dislike, repeatedly apologizing.

"Sorry, sorry!"

Then she looked at Rong Ling again, squinting her eyes and letting out a hissing laugh.

"Ling Ge, you asked someone to apologize with tea, but you should prepare the tea yourself! We came all this way just to bring people here, we didn't bring any tea!"

As for the tea they just drank, it's absolutely not suitable as a gift!

Rong Ling gave him a look that could freeze him solid!

He shuddered dramatically, rubbed the goosebumps on his body, and with a worried frown, apologized again.

"Alright, alright. Let me put it this way, Ling Ge, how about I borrow a set of teaware from you I'll return it in the same condition and not mention anything else, plus I'll give you another set as well. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

After finishing his words, he let out a playful giggle, similar to Sun Wukong, and wiggled his eyebrows mischievously.

You know, I only have good stuff!

You're totally acting like you got the better end of the deal!

But Rong Ling remained completely unmoved, gazing ahead with a stillness that resembled a statue.

The man's strange laugh froze on his face, then became a wry smile, followed by a dry chuckle, and finally a mumbled mumble. He touched his own head with his hand, looking like he didn't know what to do. He just looked pained for a while, but the young man was still a monkey after all. After a moment of frowning, his eyes lit up, he lifted the corner of his mouth, and burst into a smile again. But this time it wasn't directed at Rong Ling, but at Lin Meng.

As soon as he opened his mouth, his words were honeyed, incredibly sweet, yet not cloying at all.

"Sister-in-law, hello, hello. If I have offended you just now, please forgive me!"

Saying that, he followed the example of ancient scholars and bowed deeply. In mid-air, he pretended to grasp at his nonexistent long sleeves, then stretched his arms straight out in front of him and performed a long bow towards Lin Meng.

This peculiar appearance made Lin Meng's heart feel amused.

Having risen to his feet, he continued.

"Greetings, sister-in-law. It is I, Xiaodi Qirui. Please accept my well wishes."

This time, he was dressed as a Qing dynasty scholar. He clasped his hands together in front of his chest and bowed to Lin Meng.

When she looked up again, she smiled and her tone became familiar and warm.

"Sister-in-law, could I borrow a set of tea utensils I'll return them, and you'll definitely get your money's worth."

After finishing his words, for fear that Lin Meng wouldn't agree, he acted like a child, dragging out his voice and adding a touch of coquettishness.

"Sister-in-law... Sister-in-law..."

The alluring call reminded Lin Mengxiang of her two little darlings at home. This warmed her heart a little, and she realized this young man was providing everyone an easy way out. Otherwise, in such a short time, where could they possibly go to make tea themselves Moreover, it would be troublesome for Rong Ling to deal with so many Rong family members on his own. She knew her husband could say what he did and definitely had the ability to handle everything. But sometimes, things that could be simple should be handled simply. She was his wife, he cherished her, but not himself. Well, then she would cherish him!

Making an example out of one person, like Rongliu, will suffice.

Then, she raised her voice.

"Oh, Mother!"

"Ouch!"

Yuma, standing far away and waiting to be called, answered.

"Bring me a set of tea and water!"

"Oh! Wait a minute!"

Then Mother turned and went to the kitchen.

while Rong Ling did not stop!

For a time, everyone's perception of her status rose to a new level!

You know, Rong Ling is someone who calls the shots and doesn't give anyone face!

Rong Qi Rui giggled and sweetly said repeatedly, "Thank you, sister-in-law. Thank you, sister-in-law."

Later, Ma came over with tea.

With Rong Qirui taking the lead, the young man also felt a little more at ease. This time, when his mother brought over the tea, he didn't ask her to do anything; he took the initiative himself, grabbing the teapot and pouring a cup of tea. He held it in both hands and presented it to Lin Meng. Because Lin Meng was sitting down, the young man, who was standing, bent his waist very low.

As I said before, it was my fault. I apologize to you. Please drink this tea and accept my apology!

He was a bit reserved, unable to blend in as effortlessly as Rong Qi Rui. He couldn't just casually call someone "sister-in-law" and make it sound so natural.

But his posture of serving tea was steady, the cup brimming full, and he delivered every drop to Lin Meng's face without a spill. This attitude already showed seriousness. Moreover, the flush on his face had subsided considerably, leaving only a tinge of embarrassment that, despite being much older than the other party, he still had to apologize.

But that's enough!

"I accept your apology!"

Lin Meng took the tea, sipped it lightly, and smiled faintly before continuing.

"I forgave you!"

A soft voice, like a gentle spring breeze, melts away the awkwardness brought on by Rong Ling's coldness. The red lips tinged with a faint aroma of tea are like peach blossoms kissed by dew, blooming gracefully in the spring wind. Unintentionally, they silently waft an alluring fragrance.

Floating!

Mesmerizing!

The young man's mind was filled with a momentary daze, then his heart raced and he quickly retreated to the side, almost running away. His mind was flooded with images of her fair skin flushed pink, and the two pools of clear water deep within that peach blossom face.

Originally, up close, it was so captivating!

However, he dared not look at her again!

Once there is one, there are two.

One by one, those who owed an apology did so with a cup of tea. Those who hadn't offered tea followed Ruirui’s example and expressed their apologies for disturbing Lin Meng. They promised to send a gift as compensation upon returning home.

In the end, only one person remained!

This is the main event!

--- Aside ---

There's a little baby at home, it's hard to concentrate on typing oh, 55. I want to hold my little treasure all day and play with him╭（╯3╰）╮

I wonder if after Rong Lao Da has a little daughter, he will also not want to go to work because of his daughter and just want to play with her Hehe.

Ps: Highly recommend my friend Alì's novel "Dominating the New Wife", book number 349479.
