Chapter 185 Nervous Feelings
After she finished speaking, she looked at him nervously, afraid of getting the answer she feared most.
Rong Changqing replied seriously, "She doesn't need to like you. She only needs to know that you are my wife. As for you, all you need is for me to like you."
A smile instantly spread across Lu Qianqian's lips, and it grew wider and wider.
That's so heartwarming.
Lu Qianqian was so full that she could barely walk, but Rong Changqing still forcibly dragged her out of the restaurant, claiming that she needed to walk around to digest her food.
So, Lu Qianqian hiccuped as she walked.
Rong Changqing supported her while chuckling softly.
Lu Qianqian was so angry she wanted to punch him!
"Let me tell you about my family." Rong Changqing noticed the murderous intent in Lu Qianqian's eyes and quickly changed the subject.
Sure enough, Lu Qianqian was very willing to listen to this topic: "Okay, tell me quickly."
“My grandmother is seventy-six years old this year. She has three sons and two daughters. My father is the eldest son, so he naturally became the heir of the Rong family. My second uncle, third uncle and two aunts all work at Rong Corporation, serving as executive presidents of different regions. They probably won’t be coming tonight, so I won’t tell you what they look like one by one.”
Lu Qianqian nodded, indicating that she was listening, and she already knew about these family histories.
Rong Changqing continued, "Then there's my father. He has two sons and a daughter, me, Rong Ziqing, and my older sister, Rong Meiqing."
Lu Qianqian's heart tightened. Last time, when the topic of Xiao Chengcheng's birth mother came up, Rong Changqing avoided the main point.
"My sister died early. As for why, I'll tell you later." Rong Changqing still didn't tell Lu Qianqian directly.
Lu Qianqian was slightly disappointed by this.
“Rong Ziqing and I are half-siblings, and I was an illegitimate child for seven years.”
Lu Qianqian was immediately shocked. Everyone knew that Rong Changqing and Rong Ziqing were half-brothers, but Rong Ziqing was the elder brother and Lu Yalan was their mother. As a result, rumors spread that Rong Changqing was the child of another woman and was later brought back as an illegitimate child.
Unexpectedly, the truth was exactly the same as hers!
A mistress showed up at your door, your mother passed away, and she even brought a child to brazenly steal your father away.
The difference is that Xu Rushi's child was in her own womb at the time, while Rong Ziqing was older than Rong Changqing, which means that her father had been having an affair for a long time.
Instantly, Lu Qianqian felt a pang of heartache and looked at Rong Changqing with sympathy.
Seeing this, Rong Changqing chuckled and ruffled her hair, saying, "It's nothing really. I had my sister by my side when I was little, but I never expected her to leave us so soon..."
"Don't mention these things, they're all sad stories." Lu Qianqian didn't want him to be too upset, so she quickly stopped him.
Upon hearing this, Rong Changqing nodded and said, "Yes, Qianqian still loves me the most."
Lu Qianqian wanted to lower her head shyly, but thinking about the consequences of being shy, which would mean that the two of them would not make any progress, she forced herself to smile foolishly at him.
His face had an expression that said, "Yes, I love you."
Upon seeing this, Rong Changqing was overjoyed and leaned down to leave a light kiss on her cheek.
Lu Qianqian continued to stare at him with a forced smile.
No, I'm not shy, I don't feel shy at all.
This appearance successfully pleased Rong Changqing, who reached out and hugged her neck, laughing heartily: "Qianqian, how can you be so cute?"
Lu Qianqian was also very satisfied. Sure enough, the more shameless the child, the more they got.
If you want something, just say it boldly. Why be shy?
"Speaking of which, what gifts should I buy for your family?" Lu Qianqian was troubled. For such a wealthy family, they wouldn't lack anything.
“They lack nothing,” Rong Changqing said.
Lu Qianqian sighed, "I know."
"So, I'll just buy whatever I feel like." After saying that, he picked up a scarf. "I think this one is nice, I'll give it to Lu Yalan."
Lu Qianqian was utterly dumbfounded. Second Young Master, is this how you treat your stepmother?
Then he turned around and bought a pearl necklace, saying it was a gift for the old lady.
Finally, it was just the usual routine: buy some wine, some tea, some health supplements, and that was it.
Lu Qianqian stopped Rong Changqing, asking uncertainly, "If we go like this, will I really not get beaten up?"
"No one dares to hit you. The gift is just a formality; they might not even look at it," Rong Changqing said with a sneer. Over the years, many people have given him gifts, and many of them have simply thrown them away without even glancing at them.
"..." Lu Qianqian felt she had nothing to say.
Rong Changqing put the things he bought into the trunk of the car, and then said to Lu Qianqian, "Alright, now are you planning to continue shopping, or do you want to come with me to the Rong family's house?"
Lu Qianqian still felt it was unreliable: "It's still early. I don't want to go back to your house with you so early. It would be too uncomfortable."
Rong Changqing hugged her from behind: "You're wrong. That's not my home. My home is at No. 8 Imperial Palace. That's where you are, and where the children are."
Lu Qianqian let him hold her, and even leaned closer to him: "Your grandma and your dad probably don't know that Huarong Bank and the Imperial Palace's businesses belong to you, right?"
Rong Changqing didn't hide anything from her, resting his chin on her shoulder: "Yes, in their hearts, I am just an uneducated playboy."
"Then why don't you clarify?" Lu Qianqian didn't understand. She was clearly outstanding, and the world she had built through her own hard work was no less impressive than that of the Rong family, which had been around for a century.
However, Rong Changqing whispered in her ear, "The Rong family has too many direct and collateral branches. The more you have, the more jealous people will be. I don't want my things to be confiscated by the Rong family."
"Huh? There's such a thing?" Lu Qianqian was incredulous. Her own things were going to be confiscated?
Rong Changqing reached out and gently stroked her nose: "Hmm, there are many things you can't imagine. Human nature is inherently greedy. You can deal with one person, but you can't deal with ten people at the same time. Therefore, hiding your strength is the best protection."
Lu Qianqian nodded as if she understood, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt a headache coming on, so she said, "Let's look around some more and see if there's anything good to buy."
In the past, when she gave gifts to the elderly, she preferred blenders or similar food processors.
However, it's obvious that a family like the Rong family probably has a top-of-the-line kitchen, so there's no need for her to buy a separate blender.
That's why sometimes the wealthier people are, the harder it is for them to give gifts.
After walking around for a while, Lu Qianqian sighed, "Sigh, let's go."
Failed.
As for Lu Yalan, she could have given Rong Changqing a few sets of clothes, but she didn't say so for fear of upsetting him.
So, Rong Changqing drove towards the Rong family's main residence in the old city.
Throughout the journey, Lu Qianqian kept taking deep breaths and exhaling.
I was so nervous.
He even considered deserting at the last minute!
