Feng Tingshen didn't show up for a long time. The old lady was angry, and Feng Jingxin was also unhappy.
However, Rong Ci acted as if nothing had happened. With a calm expression, she made tea for the old lady and said, "Perhaps he has urgent matters to deal with and can't get away for the moment."
The old lady was in a bad mood and went to bed early that night.
Feng Jingxin called Feng Tingshen several times, but there was no answer on the other end.
The next morning.
When Rong Ci woke up, there was no one beside her.
Feng Jingxin was nowhere to be found.
After washing up, Rong Ci left the room and searched around but couldn't see anyone.
Only after asking did she learn that because Feng Tingshen didn't come, Feng Jingxin found the place boring. Early in the morning, she had someone accompany her down the mountain to play elsewhere.
The old lady had caught a bit of a cold from the wind the previous night and had a severe headache in the middle of the night. She had already returned to the old residence before Rong Ci woke up.
Not wanting to disturb Rong Ci's rest, the old lady didn't have anyone inform her immediately.
All of a sudden, in the huge hot spring resort, apart from the staff, only she was left.
Actually, even if Feng Jingxin found the place boring, she could have waited for Rong Ci to wake up and then asked her to take her to play.
Feng Jingxin left quietly without even saying a word. Presumably, it wasn't because she was afraid of waking Rong Ci up, but because there was news from Feng Tingshen. She was going to meet Feng Tingshen and Lin Wu.
Feng Jingxin was probably afraid that Rong Ci would stop her if she asked, so she left secretly early in the morning.
The weather wasn't very good today, and it was raining. However, the hot spring pool was sheltered. In such weather, it was quite a unique experience to soak in the hot spring while enjoying the scenery and reading a book.
Moreover, she quite enjoyed her own time.
She could have more time to do her own things.
So, even though only she was left, Rong Ci still stayed at the hot spring resort.
On Sunday afternoon, Rong Ci planned to have dinner later and then go home.
Just then, she received a call from Mrs. Feng: "Xiao Ci, I called Tingshen this morning and asked him to pick you up from the hot spring resort tonight. Has he contacted you?"
No.
They had agreed to come to the hot spring resort together, but until now, Feng Tingshen still hadn't shown up.
He hadn't even called her once.
Not only him, but Feng Jingxin also hadn't contacted her since she secretly slipped away yesterday.
However, she didn't plan to tell the old lady this.
To avoid trouble.
She said, "Yes."
Hearing Rong Ci's answer, Mrs. Feng was relieved: "That's good."
After caring about Mrs. Feng's health, the two hung up the phone.
After the sun set, Rong Ci had dinner at the hot spring resort.
The old lady said that Feng Tingshen would come to pick her up, but she waited at the hot spring resort until almost nine o'clock at night, and Feng Tingshen still hadn't appeared.
The hot spring resort was quite far from her residence, and it would take more than an hour and a half to get back.
Rong Ci didn't want to wait any longer.
She asked the hot spring resort to arrange a car to take her back.
Getting in the car, Rong Ci felt a bit drowsy.
I don't know how long it had passed when Rong Ci was suddenly woken up by a ringing mobile phone.
It was a call from Chu Zilan.
Rong Ci answered the phone: "Zilan?"
"Damn it! Bitch!"
Rong Ci was taken aback, and Chu Zilan quickly said, "It's okay. I'm just swearing at someone."
"What's wrong?"
"Wasn't I supposed to attend a charity dinner today? I didn't expect to see your scumbag father and Lin Wu there!
Just now at the dinner, a girl called Lin Wu a bitch for being a mistress and stealing her fiancé, and even poured a glass of red wine all over her. The scene was quite a mess. That girl came from a well - off family and kept making a fuss for quite a while. I was just watching the show when your husband actually showed up!"
Rong Ci was stunned. Then she heard Chu Zilan continue, gnashing her teeth: "This is a star - studded charity gala, and it's being live - streamed. Although Lin Wu and the others aren't big - name stars, the moment he showed up to support Lin Wu and took her away was still caught on camera and broadcast live—"
Chu Zilan sent her the live - stream video.
Rong Ci clicked on it to watch.
There were star singing and dancing performances at the dinner, and it was very noisy. The camera was also far away, so it was really hard to hear what the people in the video were saying.
But the video clearly captured the whole process of the girl coming to find Lin Wu, having an argument with her, and pouring red wine on Lin Wu.
After that, the girl's fiancé rushed over to stop the girl, and the two of them started arguing.
Shortly after, the girl's family also arrived.
What Chu Zilan said about the girl coming from a well - off family was probably true. They were very arrogant towards the Lin family. Lin Lihai lowered his stance, seemingly trying to reason with them, but the girl's family didn't want to listen at all and just lashed out at Lin Lihai and the others.
The faces of the Lin family members immediately turned ugly.
It seemed that they had been verbally insulted by the girl's family.
Just then, Feng Tingshen appeared.
He immediately took off his coat and put it on Lin Wu. Then he turned his head and said a few words to the girl's elders, picked up Lin Wu, and left without looking back.
The girl's family's expressions changed as soon as Feng Tingshen showed up to protect Lin Wu.
Seeing that Feng Tingshen was about to leave, they chased after him, seemingly wanting to explain, but were stopped by the bodyguards arranged by the dinner.
At the end of the video, the girl's family, who had been so arrogant before, looked as if they had suffered a great disaster and were trying to ease the relationship with the Lin family.
Lin Lihai and the others, on the other hand, changed their previous uneasiness and low - key attitude. They didn't even give the girl and her family a single glance and just followed Feng Tingshen and left.
Because this dinner gathered many stars, it received a lot of attention.
Although everyone didn't know Lin Wu and that girl, people love gossip, and quite a few people were paying attention to this matter.
Moreover, after learning that the person who "rescued" Lin Wu was Feng Tingshen, the popularity of this video spread rapidly.
[Holy crap, is this handsome guy really that talented entrepreneur Feng Tingshen?]
[No way, the news only told me that Feng Tingshen was from a wealthy family and founded many companies at a young age, but no one told me he was this handsome!]
[Can't help it. He's so low - key that we've only heard his name but never seen him!]
After figuring out the whole story of the video, netizens said:
[So, did this girl catch her fiancé cheating with President Feng's girlfriend?]
[I know that girl's boyfriend. His family background and looks are indeed quite outstanding, but compared with the great entrepreneur President Feng... After all, he's President Feng! Not to mention their family backgrounds and talents, just the looks and the bearing of the two of them are not on the same level at all!]
As the popularity fermented, some of Lin Wu's fans recognized her.
[She got a doctorate from a top - 3 university in the world at the age of 25. She's a racing driver, an adventurer, and also a hacker... This resume is amazing. Is sister this wild? Is this the female lead in a big - female - lead novel coming to life?]
[It's said that the last time sister went to a car race, President Feng also went to cheer her on. Did you see the look in President Feng's eyes in the photos? His eyes are full of admiration and pride for his girlfriend!]
[Saw it, saw it! Tsk tsk, looking at the beautiful sister's resume and then at President Feng... They are simply a match made in heaven! Sobs, President Feng is a big entrepreneur at a young age, and his taste in choosing a girlfriend is so good. I'm so jealous!]
[So, is it possible for the beautiful sister to hook up with that girl's boyfriend when she already has a boyfriend like President Feng? Impossible, right? She's not blind!]
[In the video, it was that girl's boyfriend who took the initiative to go and say hello to the beautiful sister. I think it's understandable that the little sister was nervous about her boyfriend, but it's too much to find someone to quarrel with and pour red wine on them without finding out the truth!]
[Exactly. So sometimes being too charming isn't a good thing either. Look at this beautiful sister. Didn't she get involved in this unjust disaster because she's too charming? Hahaha~]
Seeing this, Rong Ci didn't continue watching and exited the web page.
Mrs. Feng said she had contacted Feng Tingshen and asked him to pick her up at the hot spring resort.
But it was already past ten o'clock, and Feng Tingshen hadn't even called, let alone come to pick her up.
However, it was also possible that Feng Tingshen had planned to come and pick her up.
It was just that because something happened to Lin Wu, he went to "rescue" Lin Wu halfway and forgot about her.
Rong Ci didn't dwell on it either. After arriving home at eleven o'clock, she took a bath and fell asleep immediately.
She had a dreamless night.
