Chapter 269 Before leaving
Chapter 269 Before leaving
This question really left Rongyue at a loss as to how to answer.
Yuyan glanced at Feng Jingyi with dissatisfaction.
Xia Xiluo smiled secretly in his heart and turned to look at Nangong Rongyue, wanting to see what she would say. The affairs of the Nangong family were not easy to talk about. In the eyes of these people, the Nangong family had always been dependent on the Gong Yi family. Its previous status had been criticized, and now Nangong Rongyue was even more miserable. She didn't even have a family to rely on.
Yuyan looked at Xia Xiluo, and seeing the way Xia Xiluo looked at Rongyue, she became even more angry.
"Sister Jingyi, Sister Rongyue is someone close to Grandma Jiang!"
Li Yuyan said this while holding Rongyue's arm intimately.
Li Yuyan realized that their purpose of coming was not to say hello to her, and she really couldn't stand their expressions.
Qin Huaiyi and Feng Jingyi were both a little surprised after hearing what Li Yuyan said. Then they looked at Rongyue and saw the bracelet on her wrist. The two looked at each other, and then looked at Rongyue again with complicated eyes.
"I never met Sister Rongyue at Grandma Jiang's house when I was a child, and I never heard Grandma Jiang mention her." Qin Huaiyi asked softly.
"How many years have you been abroad? How do you know?" Li Yuyan looked at Qin Huaiyi.
Xia Xiluo raised his eyes and looked towards Li Yuyan.
"But... Sister Rongyue was definitely not raised by Grandma Jiang since she was a child."
Li Yuyan couldn't help but smile when she saw Xia Xiluo's eyes.
"Besides, Sister Xiluo should know about this! My brother told me that it was Brother Mochen who asked Grandma Jiang to recognize Sister Rongyue because he was afraid that one day Sister Rongyue would be criticized by gossipers for not having a family background. Unexpectedly, Grandma Jiang liked Sister Rongyue very much and recognized her without a second thought. Didn't Brother Mochen tell you?"
Xia Xiluo looked at Li Yuyan and smiled, but did not respond.
"Did Brother Mo Chen go to ask for help from Grandma Jiang in person?" Qin Huaiyi looked at Li Yuyan and then at Rongyue. In her impression, Gong Yi Mo Chen was always arrogant and domineering. How could she have imagined that he would beg for help just for a woman?
Li Yuyan looked at the faces of the three people. Feng Jingyi observed with confusion; Xia Xiluo was frowning and speechless; Qin Huaiyi was secretly sad. She felt better, and when she turned to look at Rongyue, Rongyue was also looking at her with a question mark on her face.
Li Yuyan burst out laughing when she saw Rongyue's expression. "Why are you looking at me like that? Don't you know either? Then go back and ask Brother Mo Chen."
Rongyue was really shocked by Li Yuyan's words. She didn't know if she was angry with the three or if what she said was true. But it seemed that on Grandpa's birthday, she did fall asleep after putting on makeup. When she woke up, she went to find Mo Chen and Grandma Jiang. They had been chatting for a long time. Grandma Jiang put a bracelet on her when she saw her. She also felt a little surprised at the time. It turned out to be Mo Chen...
"Of course everything is fine when two people are doing well. But after you break up, don't always talk about the past." Feng Jingyi glanced at Rongyue and Li Yuyan, and patted Qin Huaiyi as if to comfort him.
Qin Huaiyi came back to her senses and glanced at Feng Jingyi. She smiled and said, Feng Jingyi was right. No matter how good they had been, they still got divorced.
"Since Brother Mo Chen can be so kind to others, doesn't this prove that Brother Mo Chen is a loving person? Xiaoyi, you must seize the opportunity. Brother Mo Chen will definitely treat you better than others! Don't worry! It's enviable just to think about it." Feng Jingyi said with certainty, and looked at Rongyue and Yuyan.
Qin Huaiyi smiled with relief.
Rongyue smiled. Li Yuyan was a little angry but didn't say anything.
"Xiaoyi, your parents seem to be looking for you!" Feng Jingyi patted Qin Huaiyi, "Isn't that your brother Mo Chen? Go quickly!"
Rongyue followed the direction Qin Huaiyi was walking in a hurry and saw several people standing in the distance, Mo Chen, Gong Yixunran, and Qin Huaiyi's parents. Qin Huaiyi walked up to Mo Chen and smiled at him, and Mo Chen also smiled.
Rongyue once again felt that the two people looked very well matched when standing together, and she turned her eyes away and stopped looking at them.
Li Yuyan looked at Mo Chen and Qin Huaiyi, then at Rongyue who lowered her eyes. The smile disappeared from Rongyue's face, and she was too busy to refute Feng Jingyi.
"Xiaoyi and Brother Mo Chen are such a perfect match! Their family backgrounds and looks are a match!" Feng Jingyi looked at Gong Yi Mo Chen and Qin Huaiyi in the distance.
"Yes, indeed. I feel that Mo Chen also cares about Xiaoyi very much. I haven't seen him put down his work for such a long time. He has been accompanying Xiaoyi these days."
After Xia Xiluo finished speaking, he looked at Rongyue with a smile.
Li Yuyan frowned and looked at Xia Xiluo. Although she was not familiar with Qin Huaiyi and Feng Jingyi, she was familiar with Xia Xiluo. Xia Xiluo's obsession with Gong Yimochen was beyond everyone else. She had seen Xia Xiluo verbally abuse Nangong Rongyue before. How come he seemed like a different person now, generous and rational? How could a person change so much in a short time? Especially Xia Xiluo, whose jealousy and ambition were written all over his face? !
Li Yuyan couldn't figure it out and didn't want to bother herself with Xia Xiluo anymore.
"mom!"
Xiaoyu ran over and held Rongyue's hand. Rongyue squatted down and looked at Xiaoyu. "Why did you run out by yourself? Aren't you playing in the inner courtyard with your brothers and sisters?"
"I'm afraid my little butterfly will be lost, so please keep it for me and put it in the collection box when we get home." Xiaoyu put the little butterfly clip that Grandpa Li gave her into Rongyue's palm.
"Okay." Rongyue held the little butterfly tightly.
Xiaoyu happily turned around, ran two steps and then turned back.
"Mom, how do you say what I just said in English?"
"Ah?" Rongyue was speechless for a moment. "Don't test mom today."
There was some helplessness on Xiaoyu's face, but she still repeated what she had just said in English in her childish voice.
"Mom, did you remember how to say it? You can't even speak such simple English, and you still want to go out!"
Rongyue smiled awkwardly, "Of course I have to go. When mom comes back, you won't be able to test me anymore!"
"But...Xiaoyu doesn't want mom to go!"
"Be good and live with grandpa and great-grandpa for a while. Dad will often accompany you, and mom will come back when she is done with her work. Don't you like staying with great-grandpa? Mom won't be there to take care of you this time, Xiaoyu, so you can play and eat as much as you want." Rongyue smiled and kissed Xiaoyu.
When Xiaoyu heard Rongyue's last words, the sadness on her little face disappeared, then she brightened up again and ran away contentedly.
"Sister Rongyue, where are you going?" Li Yuyan looked at Rongyue who stood up.
Rongyue glanced at Xia Xiluo who was also waiting for her to speak, and then looked at Feng Jingyi.
"Sister Xiluo, Xiaoyi is not here, please accompany me for a walk." Feng Jingyi had no intention of saying hello to Rongyue and Li Yuyan, and directly pulled Xia Xiluo away.
Rongyue watched them walk away.
"Ignore them and don't care what they say! Don't make yourself angry." Yuyan patted Rongyue's hand.
Rongyue smiled and nodded. She didn't think it was a big deal.
"I'm going abroad to attend an international art exchange. It's held every two years and has only been held for a few years. It's quite influential. I've won this award and have the opportunity to attend. I've decided to go. The venue is not far from your university."
"Really! That's great! When are you going?" Li Yuyan shook Rongyue excitedly.
"I have a flight tomorrow, so I'm going to learn the language and prepare for the conference in advance."
"Ah?! Leaving tomorrow? Why are you in such a hurry?" Li Yuyan frowned and looked at Rongyue.
"Why should I be in such a hurry? If I hadn't been attending Grandpa Li's birthday party today, I would have left long ago. I have a lot of things to prepare, and I have to get used to it when I get there. Time is very tight."
"Why don't you wait for me for two days and then we can go together? What are you going to adapt to? I'm here to help you adapt!"
"My queen has found someone to help me contact the locals and rent a house. I've already agreed to go over and pack up. When I'm done, it's just the right time for you to come find me!"
"Why are you renting a house? Why don't you just live in my house?"
"How inconvenient! I have so many oil paintings! It's very troublesome."
"Why... are you afraid that my Li family isn't big enough for you to mess around with? Did you rent a manor?" Li Yuyan looked at Rongyue helplessly.
Rongyue couldn't help but laugh, "Of course not! But I also want to exercise myself, so please don't worry about me, okay? Also, I didn't tell your brother that I was going out this time, so don't tell him when you go back today."
"Why?" Li Yuyan was puzzled.
"I told him I wanted to exercise. If I told him in advance, would your brother let me exercise? He would definitely have arranged everything and told me to go directly! That would be so boring."
"That's perfect! You don't have to worry about anything and just focus on your creation! Why do you have to make it more difficult for yourself?"
"I just want to try whether Nangong Rongyue, who doesn't rely on anyone, can do it. Let's start with such a simple thing."
Li Yuyan looked at Rongyue's serious and determined expression, and she was silent for a moment.
"If my brother knew that I helped you hide it from him, he would definitely be angry with me! You really know how to give me problems!" Li Yuyan looked worried.
"If you don't tell him, he won't ask you! Just pretend that I never told you anything."
"Hmph... okay..." Li Yuyan rubbed Rongyue in annoyance.
Rongyue smiled as she watched Li Yuyan and herself act like children.
Whenever the two of them are together, Yuyan is like this. She feels no different from Xiaoyu and Xiaochu. She is so cute.
"Then send me the address when you get there, and I'll find you as soon as possible!"
"Row!"
… …
The next day, Rongyue packed everything and the Queen came to pick them up early.
When they arrived at Gong Yi's old house, the empress was waiting outside in the car. Rongyue brought the children into the living room and saw Mo Chen and Qin Huaiyi sitting in the living room chatting.
"father!"
The two children ran to Mo Chen, who hugged them in surprise. He was delighted to see Rong Yue coming in. He stood up and walked in front of Rong Yue, "Why are you here at this time?"
"I have something to do, so I'll send them over here to stay for a while. It won't be too much trouble." Rongyue looked at Mo Chen, then at Qin Huaiyi who had just stood up and was about to come over.
Both of them were wearing casual clothes today. It seems that what Xia Xiluo said was right. Mo Chen did not go to work and stayed with Qin Huaiyi.
"Grandpa is looking forward to us moving back home every day, so how can it be troublesome?" Mo Chen smiled. "What are you going to do? You want to send the child to Grandpa's place... for a while?"
"I just need to concentrate on my creations in order to participate in the exhibition. I don't have any works to be exhibited now..."
Mo Chen nodded. He remembered that Rongyue’s paintings were all destroyed. He still felt sad when he thought about it now, and he felt even more sad for Rongyue.
"Sister Rongyue." Qin Huaiyi stood beside Mo Chen and looked at Rongyue.
Rongyue smiled at Qin Huaiyi.
"Rongyue..." Grandpa came down from upstairs, walked in front of Rongyue, and handed her a business card. "If you need any help or if there is an emergency, just look for him. He will help you as soon as possible, or you can call Grandpa directly."
Rongyue took the business card, looked at it, and put it away. "Got it. Thank you, Grandpa."
Mo Chen just glanced at the business card in Rongyue's hand. He knew this person, but he was not in the country.
"Go, don't miss the plane, and everything goes well." Grandpa patted Rongyue.
Rongyue nodded and turned to leave.
"Plane? Where are you going?"
Rongyue turned around and looked at Mo Chen who was holding her. His expression was solemn and his tone was much more anxious.
