Rong Zhi hesitated when she was about to take out her phone, then lowered her gaze with a soft "hmm".
While adding Bai Tingxun on WeChat, her mind suddenly flashed to a handsome, distinctly jointed hand.
That hand had blocked her QR code twice.
Unfortunately, he’s not here now, or Bai Tingxun would probably be the third.
At one in the afternoon, Rong Zhi sped towards the Capital International Airport, narrowly avoiding a ticket.
Shen Luoluo and Tao Ruisi hadn’t boarded yet and were waiting for her; Rong Zhi could open a green channel for them to board, so being a little late wasn’t an issue, as long as they boarded before takeoff.
Shen Junze was holding onto Shen Luoluo, instructing her about matters related to going abroad. He resembled a nagging old mother more than a competent president.
Shen Luoluo impatiently interrupted him, "Alright brother, you’ve said it for the eighth time since last night. Aren’t you tired of saying it, because I’m tired of hearing it."
Identical phoenix eyes to Shen Luoluo’s suddenly reddened, as Shen Junze rubbed the back of her hand, gently saying, "I’m worried for you. You’ve never traveled far alone since you were little, and this time you’re going for a long period..."
Without him there, the second brother was unreliable, so he couldn’t rest assured about Shen Luoluo being alone abroad.
Shen Luoluo pouted, "Alright, alright. I’m not scared, so you don’t need to worry. Hey, wait, brother don’t cry... Oh wait, Third Brother, over here!"
She suddenly waved her hand.
Shen Junze, who was enjoying the comfort from his sister, asked, "???
He gritted his teeth and turned around, only to see a casually handsome figure slowly approaching.
A pure white cotton jacket hung down to his knees; his sweatshirt was a stark contrast of blue and white. The young man’s face was remarkably dazzling, with unruly brows and eyes, a hint of defiance, and his lips slightly raised, radiating confidence.
Shen Junze was stunned, rubbing his eyes. It seemed he had seen this person somewhere before, and after pondering for a while, he suddenly snapped back to reality.
Wasn’t this the boy Shen Luoluo once flirted with? Recently rumored to have been recognized as Third Young Master Rong?
"Third Young Master Rong?"
As Rong Zhi approached, Shen Junze suddenly took the initiative to speak, "What are you doing here?"
"Seeing someone off."
Rong Zhi had anticipated this scene; her first meeting with Shen Junze had been disrupted by Rong Meng and wasn’t pleasant since he assumed she was a bad influence on Shen Luoluo.
She was too lazy to explain.
Shen Junze suspiciously looked at her, "Who are you seeing off?"
Rong Zhi glanced at him indifferently, then her gaze fell behind him.
Behind Shen Junze, Tao Ruisi ran over a few steps, taking hold of her arm, speaking with natural intimacy, "I thought I wouldn’t be able to wait for Zhi Zhi today, why are you so late?"
Rong Zhi’s expression was calm, "Work."
An international doctor charging an eight-figure fee for consultation, working?? Is treating patients not rewarding enough anymore??
"Zhi Zhi, if you need money, just tell me, I’ll give you..." Tao Ruisi said worriedly.
Rong Zhi casually curved her lips and rubbed her tightly knit brows, "No need, just too idle, finding something to do."
Tao Ruisi was still skeptical, immediately taking out her phone to transfer funds to her, but Rong Zhi persuaded her otherwise. Their unconcerned interaction deeply shocked Shen Junze.
"Brother, I’ve told you before, Teacher Tao Ruisi was introduced by Third Brother, but you refused to believe it." Shen Luoluo patted her dazed, statue-like elder brother, "Back at Shiwei Xuan, you misunderstood Third Brother. I don’t care, today you have to apologize to me."
Shen Junze’s head throbbed even more fiercely than before.
He couldn’t have imagined Rong Zhi would be the Third Brother Shen Luoluo spoke of, introducing a teacher to her and helping with her studies.
Though quite envious, Shen Junze had to admit that the arrangement was especially reliable.
As an elder brother, it was somewhat challenging for him to get in touch with Tao Ruisi, but the other side directly arranged for Tao Ruisi to take Shen Luoluo under her wing, so Shen Junze felt no jealousy, only wanting to thank her.
Shen Junze didn’t know whether to thank or apologize to Rong Zhi.
Fortunately, the boarding time was approaching, and the broadcast eased Shen Junze’s awkwardness. He and Rong Zhi sent Shen Luoluo and Tao Ruisi off through the VIP channel, and as he watched Shen Luoluo’s back, his eyes couldn’t help but swell with redness again.
For the next two years, she’ll be in M Country, and during this period, it’s likely she won’t return home often except for holidays.
Shen Junze had never experienced such a long time without seeing Shen Luoluo, so he took a deep breath to calm himself, but couldn’t suppress the sadness within.
He composed himself, reverting to the calm and collected President Shen, pulling out a business card from his jacket and handing it to the young man beside him, speaking with a tone of apology, "Sorry, for misunderstanding you at Shiwei Xuan last time."
Rong Zhi side-eyed him with his brows slightly raised, not accepting the card.
