ever expected that Yu Xu, the person in charge of Asia-East Group, would directly call him and say they were terminating the talks.Luo Fatzi immediately panicked. He knew the reputation of the East As...The people Rong Ling had called also arrived soundlessly at this time.

"Send her back to the He family!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Bingbing's body stiffened and her eyes widened in shock.

That young man, probably in his late teens or early twenties, came over. Bingbing, frozen in place, was pulled up by him. But suddenly, as if she were suffering from a drug withdrawal, she violently shook off his arm.

"Uncle Rong――"

She cried out, "Thud!" and fell to her knees.

"I was wrong, I was wrong. But please, I beg you, spare Grandma and the others, spare our He family, okay I'll kowtow to you, I'll kowtow to you…"

As he spoke, there was a loud "bang" as his head hit the ground with a thud.

She remembered who she was, a member of the He family. She couldn't afford to be weak! Even though she was young, the pride and honor of her family had already been woven into her very bones. Besides, she couldn't bring shame upon her mother!

Though this girl was pampered, when she truly got serious, she had a vicious streak. Smashing down like that, she treated her own head like a stone. In an instant, blood appeared on her forehead!

Ronger narrowed her eyes. As for Bingbing, after raising her head and seeing Rong'er unmoved, she heavily smashed her head down again, with a loud "bang," then another one, and another...

"After kicking six times, Rong Ling spoke. "Pick her up!"

The subordinate swiftly scooped Bingbing into his arms. Bingbing opened her eyes, tears streaming down her face as she gazed pleadingly at Rong Ling. Blood trickled down her no longer fair forehead, sliding past her eye sockets and nose bridge, a sight that was rather heart-wrenching to behold.

This child is really ruthless!

Rong Ling let out a soft sigh in her heart. She and that woman were indeed relatives, when it came time to be ruthless, she didn't hold back at all.

"Go back and tell your grandmother that we won't harm the foundation of your family!"

There was bewilderment on Bingbing's face.

"You tell this to your great-grandmother, she'll be pleased!"

Baby froze her tears, then lowered her head.

"Uncle Rong, please don't dislike Bingbing, okay Bingbing really likes you the most..."

But Rong Ling simply walked away, leaving the little girl's pleas behind. Since she had used their last shred of connection to barter for the He family's safety, what right did she have to ask him not to hate her!

"From now on, don't just come looking for me whenever you feel like it. Otherwise, every time I'll have to find someone to send you back, which will be a hassle for me!"

His words, carried far and wide, spoke of coldness and ruthlessness. Bingbing, upon hearing them, covered her face and wept silently.

Xiao Youyou watched, his eyes glazed over. When Bingbing forcefully smashed her head against the ground, drawing blood, he took back his little bow and arrow. He disliked this girl, that much was true, but seeing the blood streaming from her head, he was shaken to his core.

"Daddy, so it turns out, even the most detestable people, they...they..." The little one suddenly didn't know how to express it.

"---Are there any bright spots!" Rong Ling picked up.

"Mmm."

"Have pity on him!"

The little guy fell silent for a moment, then whispered softly, "A little bit!"

But then quickly added in a loud voice, "However, I still hate her!"

A smile flashed in Rong Ling's eyes.

"Youyou, there are no absolutely good people or absolutely bad people in this world. Everyone has their own shining points, which is perfectly normal. You don't have to let someone off just because they have some good qualities. Remember, if someone attacks you, you should fight back; that's a justifiable act. But if you forgive them, it's because of the kindness in your heart, your compassion for them. In the future, you will encounter many people and face more complex situations. You must never forget this fundamental principle, otherwise, you will find it difficult to achieve great things!"

Such a vast empire, if the heir were someone who could easily sway people with words, someone who could easily choose forgiveness... then -- he would never be able to keep his position!

The little guy, in silence, slowly digested what Rong Ling had said.

Rong Ling wasn't in a hurry. The child was still young, and he had plenty of time to teach him slowly.

On that end, Rong Ling's men were just carrying Bingbing out of the hunting ground when she was "bumped into" by Li Yiping. She had been following Bingbing all along; Bingbing went into the hunting ground, while she waited outside. Hearing the subordinate who was secretly watching Bingbing report to her that Bingbing was injured, she was extremely worried and wanted to rush in immediately. However, thinking of her plan, she could only grit her teeth and endure it.

At last, Bingbing is finally here! But she almost fainted. Seeing the blood on her daughter's face, her heart tightened, and she could hardly breathe.

"Bingbing, what's wrong with you!"

Although it was her order, that if Rong Ling really went so far as to not spare the Rong family, Bingbing should use a ruse and kowtow to him. However, Bingbing actually did kowtow, even bleeding from her forehead, making it hard for her to accept!

"Mom..."

Bing Bing cried out and reached her hand towards Li Yi Ping. Rong Ling's subordinates immediately put Bing Bing down, and Li Yi Ping touched Bing Bing's forehead and cried.

Rong Ling's subordinates were just as cold-blooded and taciturn as Rong Ling himself.

"Since you're here, I leave this child in your care. Ma'am, I suggest you tend to your daughter's wounds as soon as possible!"

Li Yiping was stunned for a moment, because there was more to what her subordinate said!

The subordinate turned and left without another word!

Li Yiping twitched her lips, but in the end, she asked nothing. She quickly pulled Bingbing into a parked car and began to disinfect and bandage her wounds.

"Mom, let Uncle Rong know I want to tell Grandma Zeng: 'Tell Grandma Zeng that we won't harm your family's foundation,' sniffle..."

Li Yiping laughed. "Silly child, this is a good thing, why are you crying! This time you have made great contributions to our family, you are our hero!"

"But...sniffle..." Bingbing started to cry. "But Uncle Rong doesn't like me anymore, sniffle. He doesn't want to see me again. I might not be able to find him again, sniffle... Mom...Mom..."

Li Yiping's heart ached. Looking at the blood on her daughter's forehead, she let out a heavy sigh.

She wasn't surprised by this outcome, but why was she so heartbroken that it had come to this

“Baby, don’t cry. Mommy is here. As long as you have mommy with you, that’s enough. Don’t cry, baby, don’t cry...”

But she knew that Rong Ling held a place in his daughter's heart that no one else could ever fill!

Li Yiping thought that this time, she sacrificed so much, and her daughter also sacrificed so much, it should be enough, enough to make Old Lady He and the others grateful. But the result left her cold!

"Doesn't he understand that this won't hurt the core of our family! Is that boy not going to stop! The root, the root, how would he possibly know where the core of our He family lies!"

Old Mrs. He was furious, wielding her purple sandalwood cane and hammering the ground repeatedly, looking utterly uncompromising.

"Bingbing, tell me everything that Rongling said. Give me a detailed account of what happened!"

She was only anxious about her own interests, as if she hadn't seen the gauze bandage on her great-granddaughter's head.

Bingbing recounted the events in a despondent tone. Old Madam He chided her repeatedly. "How could you just come back like this Why didn't you beg him more! Also, why didn't you ask clearly when he would stop all this!"

It is obvious that Bingbing's plea had an effect, and Rongling also loosened up. If Bingbing pushed a little harder, perhaps, there wouldn't be any problems now.

Old Mrs. He was thinking wildly, looking at Bingbing, her brows never relaxing!

Bingbing lowered her head. When Li Yiping saw this, she gently pulled Bingbing closer to her side.

“Grandma, Bingbing has tried her best too. Since Rongling said that, I believe our family will soon return to normal!”

“Recovery to normal! Humph, your father-in-law is still at home, and the family business is still not functioning normally. How can it be back to normal!” Old Mrs. He looked at Bingbing again without any hesitation, and commanded domineeringly: “Bingbing, go beg Rongling again. Isn’t he the one who loves you the most Go beg him, good girl. Once things are done, Grandma Zeng will buy you a present!”

Li Yiping was a little angry. She thought her grandmother was really tactless, being so relentless toward the child. Didn't she care about her own reputation Besides, wasn't it her who said that Bingbing should take the lead and she would follow up later How come now she was putting all the pressure on Bingbing Did she just joke before

Suppressing the anger in her heart, Li Yiping smiled. "Grandma, Bingbing has done very well this time. Besides, she was injured, so let her rest for a while!"

Old Mrs. He glanced at Bingbing's head with her old eyes, her tone softened slightly, and she inquired with concern, "Is nothing serious"

Bingbing immediately smiled sweetly and replied, "Grandma Zeng, it's okay, I didn't feel too much pain!"

"Why not take a break for a while" Such a thoughtful gesture!

Li Yiping breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that.

Bingbing also let out a sigh of relief.

At that moment, Li Yiping couldn't hide the change in her expression.

"When you've had enough rest, go and ask your Uncle Rong again. Our family business can't be delayed at all. Every second counts as money!"

Old Lady He's turn of events is too much, too hurtful! Li Yiping thinks she has made her meaning clear enough. Her own daughter is her direct granddaughter, how could she keep pushing the child out again and again.

She couldn't directly yell at the elderly woman, so she turned her gaze to He Ya, who was sitting on the side. Her relationship with He Ya had always been good, and she had helped her many times before. She believed that her niece should speak up for her and Bingbing. But to her surprise, He Ya met her eyes and seemed to understand her plea, yet she didn't say a word.

Li Yiping's heart was hurt!

Unwillingly, she turned her gaze to her mother-in-law again, silently praying. Old Mrs. He had sharp eyes and immediately noticed this, becoming displeased and angrily rebuking, "Yiping, what are you doing Do you have an opinion on what I, your mother-in-law, am saying!"

Li Yiping hurriedly replied, "No, no! ... Only, only..."

"What is it"

However, Bingbing going to Rongling again and again doesn't seem quite right!

"What's wrong!"

"Rong Ling looks like she's angry!"

"Angry! He can't get angry at a child, can he!" Old Mrs. He's face darkened, displeasure etched all over it. "Yi Ping, what do you mean You don't want Bingbing to help out the family Don't forget, Bingbing is also part of this family! When something happens, she has to fulfill her obligations too. Hmph, don't just think about befriending Rong Ling and leave Bingbing behind. Let me tell you, as a daughter-in-law, one shares both glory and loss with the family. You can't escape that!"

"Grandma, I'm not, not..."

"Not the best!" Old Mrs. He interrupted her loudly. "Since it's not, then you let Bingbing stay for a while and find Rongling again. That kid Rongling is good to Bingbing, he will definitely listen to Bingbing in the end!"

But does she think Bingbing is God Wanting whoever she wants to obey her! Even God has people who don't obey him!

"Grandma…" Li Yiping tried weakly to salvage something, but Bingbing cried out first, her voice choked with tears. She had been pushed too far by He Lao Tai Tai and couldn't keep it hidden anymore.

"But Uncle Rong said not to go find her, he said if I went to look for him, he would have to send me back, what a hassle! ... Woooo... Grandma Zeng, I don't want to find Uncle Rong anymore, it will make Uncle Rong dislike me..."

Oh no, she doesn't want to disappoint Uncle Rong!

As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the room changed color.

Before this, Li Yiping had specifically instructed Bingbing not to tell anyone what Rongling said to her at the end because it implied that Bingbing was quickly becoming a useless pawn. She couldn't imagine how Old Mrs. He would treat Bingbing and her if she knew about this! She knew she was of low status, and being able to marry into the He family had been due to Rongling's help. But even so, for the first few years after marrying into the He family, she felt that the old lady, as well as her father-in-law and mother-in-law, disliked her. Even the other relatives in the family didn't seem too happy with her. She knew how long Old Mrs. He's face had pulled when she learned that her first child was a girl.

Although He Ya appears to be very favored, Old Madam He still favors sons over daughters at heart. He Ya is so favored because all of Old Madam He's sons have completed the task of having a son. Among her several sons, only He Ya was born as a daughter. Therefore, with no shortage of sons, the only daughter naturally received her love and attention.

When she was pregnant, before confirming the sex of the baby in her womb, the old woman had jokingly advised her that having a daughter wasn't bad either. "Flowers first, then fruits," she said, suggesting to wait until after their daughter was born to have another son. She knew how insincere the old woman's laughter was. Throughout her pregnancy, she felt immense pressure. Furthermore, her family had always been childless. After she gave birth to a daughter, the doctor informed her that it would be difficult for her to conceive again. At that moment, the old woman's face turned dark. She immediately shouted at the doctor, calling him incompetent. But this was essentially another insult directed at her! When she returned home from the hospital, the old woman treated her with disdain and coldness. Even, she overheard the old woman persuading He Zhansuo to divorce her and remarry. Fortunately, He Zhansuo refused. However, the old woman started brewing strange herbal remedies, forcing her to take them every day, claiming it would improve her physique. For a while, the entire house was filled with the pungent smell of antiquated herbs. The moment she smelled that aroma, she felt nauseous.

While Bingbing didn't receive much love and care from her family either!

Thus, when Bingbing grew to over a year old, her eyebrows and eyes slowly opened up, catching Rong Ling's attention. Bingbing was favored by him, and the wind direction in the He family began to change. She finally had the opportunity to walk with her head held high in this house. That disgusting Chinese medicine finally disappeared.

Grandma He affectionately grasped her hand, stroking it while saying kindly, "Yiping, you and Xiao Su are still young, no need to rush, take it slow. Maybe one day, a child will come again. Hee hee, grandma's getting a little impatient. After all, Xiao Su is my eldest grandson! You have to understand grandma.

She smiled and said it was fine at the time, accepting it with a submissive air. But inside, she felt cold.

This is the wealthy family she desperately wanted to marry into! But now that she's gotten this far, what other options does she have!

She saw through this change very clearly, so she would try her best to win over Rong Ling and help Bingbing seize his affections. But she also knew that she was walking a tightrope, placing all her hopes and the future of herself and Bingbing on this precarious thread. If one day the rope snapped, she and Bingbing would -- shatter into pieces!

Driven by a desire for wealth and status, she craved the recognition of her family and high society. Knowing full well the consequences, she willingly sacrificed her daughter to the He family, who, blinded by their own greed, tightened the noose until…

At this moment, Old Mrs. He is glaring fiercely at Bingbing and roaring. "Lingrong doesn't want to see you! When did this happen Why didn't you say it just now! What have you done to make him make such a decision! Bingbing, are you hiding something from Granny Zeng! Did you do something wrong this time!"

Old Mrs. He advanced step by step, her expression fierce and menacing, like a tiger demon staring intently at Bingbing. The latter was frightened; since she had consciousness, she had always been pampered by her family and had never seen her great-grandmother like this!

"Mom!" She was frightened and turned around to rush into Li Yiping's arms, hugging her and crying.

"Grandma!" Li Yiping spoke up to stop her.

"What are you crying for You only know how to cry! It's all your fault, you spoiled this child!"

Being criticized, Li Yiping felt a sense of powerlessness. Her love for her child could be compared to the pampering given by the He family, headed by the old woman! Sometimes, even when she wanted to scold the child a few times, she was stopped by the old woman and the others. As a mother, she felt so helpless!

Originally, it was a flower bathed in the warm sunlight at the branch tip. But when the wind and rain came one day, it tumbled from the branch and turned into mud!

Bing Bing's ancestry is a mystery. How can she be so dismissive and disrespectful It's chilling how easily the old woman changes her mind like this. Rong Ling entered without turning any on. He seemed very accustomed to this darkness, or perhaps he was the king of darkness himself. His footsteps were light, increasingly reminiscent of a leopard i...
