The Undercover Heir is Actually Tycoon's Secret Girlfriend
Chapter 28 Reversal

Chapter 28: Chapter 28 Reversal

7:30 in the evening.

When Rong Zhi received the call that the old man wanted to celebrate for her, she rushed to the old house. When she arrived, Rong Xian’an and the others were already there.

Rong Fangjun raised the tea cup in his hand with a big smile and said, "I’m too old to drink, so I’ll use tea instead of wine to congratulate Third Young Master for getting into the top school."

Rong Zhi showed no expression, reaching out to pick up the wine glass, but another hand was quicker in snatching the wine glass away.

"Meng Meng?" Rong Fangjun was taken aback.

Rong Meng put down the wine glass, pursed her lips, and looked conflicted.

Rong Fangjun frowned, "If there’s something to say, say it. What kind of behavior is it to senselessly snatch your brother’s wine glass?"

"I..." She raised her head to glance at Rong Zhi, quickly withdrew her gaze, biting her lip and shaking her head.

This hesitating appearance instantly provoked Rong Fangjun’s impatience, "What is the matter!"

"Yes, Meng Meng, what’s going on?" Rong Qichuo looked worried.

Rong Meng still refused to speak. Seeing the air become even colder, Ying Man finally suppressed her anger, disregarding the presence of the old man, and said harshly: "Meng Meng doesn’t want to say it because your grandson’s actions are so excessive that she couldn’t bring herself to speak."

"You’re concerned for Rong Zhi. She’s afraid that speaking out will make you sad!"

"Third Young Master? How does it concern Third Young Master?"

"It concerns him greatly," Ying Man sneered coldly, "He couldn’t wake up in the morning, was late for school, and almost had his admission canceled. The teacher finally gave him a chance, letting him go to school, but what did he do? He skipped class!"

"Late?!"

"Skipping class?!"

Faced with the questioning of her father-in-law and husband, Ying Man’s face looked even worse.

Rong Fangjun, shocked to the point of trembling, quickly put down his tea cup and asked Rong Zhi, "Is what your mother said true?"

Rong Zhi calmly peeled the shrimp, and within seconds, the shrimp meat perfectly separated from the shell. Her expression was faint, placing the shrimp meat into Rong Fangjun’s bowl.

"Don’t eat too much."

The old man was gluttonous and loved seafood, but shrimp and crab are cold in nature and shouldn’t be eaten excessively.

Rong Fangjun gazed at the crystal-clear shrimp meat in his bowl, instantly discarding thoughts of ’being late, skipping class,’ and was only filled with emotion, "Okay, okay, I’ll eat as much as Third Young Master peels for Grandpa."

Rong Meng nearly bit through her lip, eyes filled with jealousy. She lowered her gaze and softly said, "Little Zhi, did you do well in today’s exam? The entrance exam for the top school is difficult, but sister believes in you."

The air froze once more.

Rong Zhi lazily lifted her eyelids, leaning forward to grab a wet napkin, slowly wiping her hands.

Rong Xian’an frowned, truly displeased by her careless demeanor, "Meng Meng is asking you a question."

"Oh." Rong Zhi replied indifferently, apathetically, "The teacher hasn’t graded the papers."

In other words, whether she did well or not, the exam papers haven’t been graded, so she’s unsure.

"Not graded?" Rong Qichuo glanced at her with a hint of sarcasm on his lips, "Indeed, the person who can be late for an entrance exam, the teacher probably doesn’t have the mood to grade your papers."

Upon hearing this, Rong Xian’an reprimanded coldly, "Rong Zhi, didn’t you set an alarm clock? You said you wanted to take the entrance exam, and it was you who didn’t attend due to lateness. What exactly are you trying to do?!"

"That question, you should ask your good son." Rong Zhi propped her chin, fingertips pointed to her forehead, a slight, cold, and wicked smile tugged at her lips.

The young boy’s stunning and cold aura made anyone who looked into his eyes shiver.

Rong Qichuo, closest to her, was startled by her eerie gaze, suddenly recalling the day in Shiwei Xuan when she threatened him with a knife.

Ruthless, cold, and filled with wickedness.

In panic, he suddenly stood up, distancing himself from Rong Zhi, bumping against the table and forgetting the pain, instinctively shouting, "It wasn’t me!"

Listening closely, his tone had traces of fear and panic.

Rong Zhi smirked slightly with nonchalance, "Hmm, not you, not you who had your driver take leave, not you who took my car to school."

Rong Qichuo clenched his fists, nails digging deep into his flesh, joints protruding, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "You were late. Don’t try to blame me!"

"Grandpa," Rong Zhi drawled with a faint smile, "Do you have Driver Lin’s phone number? Why not have him come over?"

Rong Fangjun remembered Driver Lin was Rong Zhi’s dedicated driver, immediately calling for Lu Zhao to make the call.

Rong Qichuo’s face showed a hint of panic, and when he spoke again, there was a lot of guilt, "No need to trouble Driver Lin for such a small matter."

Everyone present was shrewd, seeing this, who wouldn’t understand?

Lu Zhao stood aside with his phone, using his eyes to ask the old man.

Rong Fangjun’s face darkened, "Then call him and ask!"

"Grandpa!" Rong Qichuo cried out impatiently.

"Shut up."

Lu Zhao quickly called Driver Lin, and connected instantly, he turned on the speakerphone. Rong Fangjun asked him several questions in a row.

Initially, Driver Lin was hesitant, unwilling to say much. Rong Fangjun implicitly threatened him with dismissal, only then did he confess everything.

"...It wasn’t me who was sick; it was the eldest master’s driver. He was anxious to get to the company and said to use my car. I wanted to call and arrange another car for the Third Young Master, but on the way, the eldest master urged me, and I forgot..."

After hanging up Driver Lin’s call, Rong Fangjun had Lu Zhao call Rong Qichuo’s dedicated driver.

"I’m not sick, am I? Didn’t the eldest master say to give me a holiday and let me rest at home?"

After two calls, Rong Qichuo’s lips trembled, his voice shaking uncontrollably, "I didn’t..."

Rong Zhi slightly raised her face, disinterest showing.

If she hadn’t checked the main gate’s surveillance, she might have misunderstood Driver Lin.

Unprepared, Rong Fangjun slapped the table and stood, furious, his face red, neck muscles tensed, "This is what you learned in over twenty years?! Huh? Learning in the end only to plot against your own brother?!"

He almost couldn’t continue speaking, largely due to shame.

Rong Meng froze for a moment, then immediately got up and ran over to help pat his back to soothe him, "Brother might really have urgent business at the company, maybe he just forgot the driver was on leave."

"I’m not senile!" Rong Fangjun refused her help, grabbing his cane to strike Rong Qichuo.

Ying Man shocked, stared with wide eyes, quickly stood in front of Rong Qichuo, "Dad... Ah!"

The solid wood cane struck her squarely.

The pain made Ying Man’s face wrinkle together, sweat forming on her forehead.

Rong Qichuo held onto his mother, his voice anxious, "Mom? Mom are you okay? Where were you hit? I’ll take you to the hospital!"

Rong Qichuo hurriedly carried Ying Man and headed out, Rong Meng, frightened, also quickly followed. Rong Fangjun was both anxious and agitated, clutching his chest and gasping heavily, his complexion turning pale and his vision darkening.

Rong Zhi suddenly pulled out a white lollipop, stuffing it into his mouth, then retrieved a silver needle, and precisely stabbed the old man’s exposed skin.

"Rong Zhi!!" Rong Xian’an turned back to see this, his eyes bloodshot with rage, "What are you doing! Get away!"

Rong Zhi directed Lu Zhao to help the old man lie down, just as Rong Xian’an took several big steps forward to pull out those needles.

"Don’t touch them." Rong Zhi replied concisely.

"He is your grandfather!"

Rong Xian’an’s eyes were ferocious, as though he wanted to swallow Rong Zhi whole and alive, "Dad wanted to bring you back, to care for you, not for you to repay kindness with betrayal."

"Rong Zhi, if Dad encounters any danger, I will make sure your suffering is a hundred, a thousand times worse than his."
