Rong Honghui left with his wife and daughter, and in the car, Ma Li’s mouth never stopped.
"Who hates Rong Qingqing so much to lock her in a place like that? But it really does feel satisfying."
"Rong Qingqing made such a fool of herself, and right in front of Shen Jue, and all those guests from the Zhao Family, if I were Shen Jue, I wouldn’t want this kind of fiancée."
"Enough!" Rong Honghui was growing increasingly impatient.
Rong Qingqing had no vested interests with him, and after all, Rong Qingqing was his niece. As a man and an elder, Rong Honghui wouldn’t stoop so low as to kick his own niece when she’s down. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the nοvelfire.net
Naturally, listening to his wife’s petty behavior-like words, Rong Honghui became increasingly impatient.
It also made him understand why, after so many years, Ma Li still couldn’t win the old man’s favor.
"I know you don’t like Rong Qingqing, but Rong Qingqing is the old man’s favorite. If you were smart, you’d at least pretend to be heartbroken and worried, instead of foolishly criticizing her non-stop."
As Rong Honghui said this, he suddenly thought of something else.
"Could it be that when Rong Qingqing was young, you took advantage of the empty house and locked her in the storage room in the basement?" Rong Honghui highly suspected.
Ma Li screamed, "How can you suspect me like that? By the time I married into the Rong Family, how old was Rong Qingqing? Could I have done that? Like you said, she’s the old man’s favorite, would I dare?"
Hearing this, Rong Honghui said, "True."
Rong Honghui was puzzled. Then how did Rong Qingqing develop this strange fear of confined spaces?
Although Rong Qingqing’s parents weren’t reliable, back when he and Jiang Min were still married, Jiang Min, this aunt, took great care of Rong Qingqing. You could say Jiang Min raised Rong Qingqing as half her own daughter.
When Rong Qingqing first started talking, she even called Jiang Min "mom." It was only later, when she grew older, that she was corrected.
So, with Jiang Min around, no one in the family would dare to bully Rong Qingqing.
Thinking of Jiang Min, Rong Honghui couldn’t help but compare Ma Li with his ex-wife.
He couldn’t deny that over the years, there were times he regretted it.
During the years he wasn’t divorced from Jiang Min, the house was always filled with laughter, unlike these years, with the old man always displeased with Ma Li and Rong Jiaojiao.
"I also wonder who had the guts to cause trouble at the Zhao Family’s event and dared to harm Rong Qingqing." Rong Honghui was angry as well, "Qingqing is still a daughter of our Rong Family; we can’t let anyone bully her."
"Isn’t it easy to find out? The incident happened at the Zhao Family’s place, so you can always find the servant who took Rong Qingqing to the storage room. Once you find that servant and ask them, you’ll know." Ma Li shrugged indifferently, "This small matter, the Zhao Family can surely handle it well."
As the couple talked, no one noticed Rong Jiaojiao sitting to the side, looking increasingly distressed.
The driver first detoured to Shen Manor to drop off Rong Jiaojiao. When the car reached the gate of Shen Manor, Rong Jiaojiao asked the driver to stop.
"Why not have the driver take you to the villa’s entrance?" Ma Li asked, "You’re wearing high heels; it’s hard to walk."
Rong Jiaojiao finally couldn’t hold it in any longer and started to cry.
"Dad, I’m sorry, I’ve caused trouble." From the moment Rong Qingqing was discovered, Rong Jiaojiao had been panicking, and listening to her parents talk all the way, she wanted to speak up several times.
She was scared, she was truly scared.
"What do you want to say?" Rong Honghui frowned.
