Chapter 198: Chapter 198 Softly Begging Him

"I was just telling the truth,"

"Do you know why my elder brother became estranged from our family?" he suddenly asked.

Lin Xinlan was taken aback, instinctively asking, "Why?"

She really didn’t know about Rong Mingyan’s situation; she only knew that he was Rong Shaoze’s cousin, beyond that she knew nothing.

Rong Shaoze curled his lips, saying indifferently, "It’s true he’s my cousin. However, my grandfather had two wives. His grandmother was my grandfather’s first wife, whom he divorced before marrying my grandmother."

Surprise flashed across Lin Xinlan’s face.

So Rong Mingyan’s and Rong Guangguo’s fathers were half-brothers.

Rong Shaoze continued, "Do you know why my grandfather divorced his first wife? Because the only thing in his eyes was ’Shengjue,’ for the development of the Rong Family, he married my grandmother. My grandmother loved him, and was of great help to him. Needing my grandmother’s help, he divorced his first wife, and then married my grandmother."

This was a modern tale of a talented man who abandoned his wedded wife for power, fame, and wealth.

"However, when they divorced, Rong Mingyan’s grandmother was already pregnant, and later she gave birth to a boy, my elder uncle. But their life was very difficult, and when Rong Mingyan was only a few years old, his grandmother died. Later on, his parents also passed away, and he himself disappeared without a trace. After my grandmother’s death, my grandfather always sought the whereabouts of Rong Mingyan, not finding him until now."

Listening to this, Lin Xinlan couldn’t help feeling a bit melancholic. "His life might have been tough, but that doesn’t mean he would hold a grudge against you. Any resentment would be a matter for your grandfather’s generation."

Rong Shaoze’s lips curved, but he said nothing more.

What he didn’t tell Lin Xinlan was that Rong Guangguo had used many resources but still failed to find Rong Mingyan. Wasn’t that odd?

And why was it that just when Rong Mingyan made a name for himself, he was suddenly found?

Rong Mingyan had emerged powerfully, and Shaoze couldn’t help but be on guard.

Lin Xinlan became pregnant and turned into a key person to be protected in the house.

The servants treated her with extreme respect, viewing her entirely as the Young Madam of the Rong Family.

The saying "to gain honor through one’s offspring" probably looked like this.

Rong Shaoze was also very good to her, no longer losing his temper at her.

He was attentive to her daily, personally supervising her diet and routine.

His kindness occasionally gave her the illusion that he truly was a good husband.

Fortunately, the hurt she had suffered was deep, so she wasn’t blinded by the facade he presented.

————

One day, Rong Shaoze took her to the hospital for a check-up. As they entered the hospital, Lin Xinlan spotted an acquaintance.

Her expression froze momentarily as she grabbed Rong Shaoze, trying to turn a corner and sneak past, but that person’s gaze landed on her instantly.

"Miss Lin, is that you?"

Zhou’s mother approached enthusiastically to greet her. Noticing Rong Shaoze by her side, she remembered something, her smile suddenly vanishing as her eyes burst with resentment, her expression turning very cold.

Lin Xinlan turned to Rong Shaoze and said, "You go ahead and wait for me inside, I’ll be right there."

The man glanced at Zhou’s mother indifferently, paying no attention to her expression.

"Let’s go in together. I’m not at ease with you alone, what if it affects the baby?"

"I’ll be fine. You go first, please?" Lin Xinlan pleaded softly, her eyes carrying a hint of entreaty.
