So he nodded and asked Madam Rong, "Mom, what do you think?"
Madam Rong had never experienced hardship; every day since marrying into the Rong family had been one of enjoyment. Only when she heard Rong Changqing say that the climate there was bad did she finally agree.
"Yes, as a member of the Rong family, I should indeed go to the frontier to investigate. Let's go for a month."
After listening, Rong Zhenhua made the final decision: "Alright, regarding this family meeting, Rong Ziqing is hereby punished for his disrespect and disobedience to his elders as follows: First, he must copy the Rong family precepts one hundred times. Second, he must go on a one-month field trip to the Northwest frontier. Third, all of his bonuses for this year will be deducted."
"Yes!" Rong Ziqing nodded in agreement, quite readily.
“Hehe…” Rong Changqing sneered. What era is this? Only the Rong family would still put on such a show. But it suits his wishes just fine.
In the northwest, he left Rong Changqing a great gift.
Rong Zhenhua then ended the video call, and Rong Changqing got up to leave, but was stopped by Old Madam Rong.
"The fact that I didn't punish you in public today doesn't mean I'm satisfied with you!"
Upon hearing this, Rong Changqing chuckled and turned to look at Old Madam Rong, then at Rong Ziqing, his smile widening even further: "Grandma, Rong Ziqing made you angry today. Go find him, don't come looking for me!"
After saying that, he strode away.
The Rong family all knew that compared to Rong Ziqing's toughness, Rong Ziqing was unyielding to both soft and hard approaches.
Since he doesn't want the Rong family's shares, the Rong family has nothing to threaten him with, and naturally, they can't punish him at all, because he can completely ignore them and refuse to comply.
Madam Rong was also helpless against Rong Changqing, yet she was in great pain with him.
After all, Rong Ziqing was also Rong Changqing's mother.
And Rong Changqing only had her as his grandmother to love him.
Rong Ziqing's gaze toward Rong Changqing grew increasingly cold and icy.
……
As soon as Lu Qianqian and Dong Hanlin got off the plane, they were met by the people Rong Ziqing had sent to pick them up.
"Hello, are you Ms. Lu Qianqian?" A professional uniform and a gentle smile.
However, Lu Qianqian dared not go along easily. What if they were Madam Rong's people?
"It's me." Lu Qianqian politely declined. "Well, I'm already in the capital, so I won't trouble you any further!"
"Miss Lu, this is our job, and we hope you'll support us." The young woman spoke sweetly, "Please come with me."
Lu Qianqian still didn't dare, but Dong Hanlin stayed by her side the whole time: "Don't be afraid, I'm here with you. If anything happens, I'll immediately tear off my mask to attract passersby, and they won't dare to do anything to you!"
Lu Qianqian: "..."
Believe it or not, this actually is a solution.
“Miss Lu, we were sent by the young master to pick you up and take you to the hotel!” the young girl said. “Please come with us.”
Lu Qianqian didn't go with them at all; they were just traveling together.
"Miss Lu!"
After the young girl led Lu Qianqian out of the airport glass doors, they heard a private car waiting to pick them up outside.
"Young Master asked us to tell you that he's sorry for causing you trouble, so he specially prepared an apology gift for Miss Lu." As soon as the girl finished speaking, the trunk of the pickup car in front of her automatically popped open.
A whole box of roses appeared in front of Lu Qianqian, extremely romantic and fragrant.
Lu Qianqian was shocked. What did this mean?
"Wow, roses! How romantic!"
"I'm so envious."
"Quick, take a picture!"
People passing by stopped and looked at Lu Qianqian with envy.
Dong Hanlin immediately took out a disposable mask from his backpack and put it on her to avoid too much trouble if she was recognized.
"Miss Lu!" The young girl handed her phone to Lu Qianqian again.
Lu Qianqian instinctively took it, but when she looked down, she found it was a video call from Rong Ziqing.
“Miss Lu!” Rong Ziqing sat upright, as if on a hotel sofa, her posture impeccable. “I have investigated the news thoroughly, and I apologize to you here. Furthermore, I have completely suppressed the news; you will not see anyone discussing this matter tomorrow morning!”
Lu Qianqian didn't know what to say, since everything had come so suddenly, so she could only nod.
Rong Ziqing continued, "Don't worry, I'll take care of the old lady."
Lu Qianqian nodded again, still unsure of what to say.
Rong Ziqing said, "The hotel has been arranged, and security measures have been taken. You can rest assured and go to rest. Consider this my compensation for apologizing to you."
"Thank you!" Lu Qianqian really didn't know what to say, so she could only express her gratitude. "Since the young master is with the old lady, I naturally don't need to be afraid. I won't trouble the young master with the hotel arrangements."
"No, you must stay here." Rong Ziqing's attitude was firm. "Only by letting you stay within my control can I guarantee your safety!"
"But……"
"Alright, go back and rest early." Rong Ziqing didn't give her a chance to object and asked Lu Qianqian to follow the staff.
Lu Qianqian sighed helplessly. She didn't have the energy to play the game today. With tired hands, she raised the white chess piece and shook it. Resignedly, she returned the phone to the girl, obediently got into the car, and prepared to leave for the hotel arranged by Rong Ziqing.
To ensure Lu Qianqian's safety, Dong Hanlin squeezed into the car like a piece of chewing gum and sat next to her.
He absolutely wouldn't allow Lu Qianqian to be beaten right under his nose before.
He is a man!
A man who can take care of a woman.
Seeing this, Lu Qianqian didn't say much. Having Dong Hanlin by her side at this time was undoubtedly the best choice. When something happened, at least there was someone to analyze it with her.
After about a half-hour drive, the convoy stopped in front of the Imperial Capital Hotel.
Yes, it was indeed a convoy, five cars in total, protecting Lu Qianqian in the very center, so that probably not even a fly could get in.
Finally, Lu Qianqian was taken to a presidential suite, where a trunk full of "apology" roses was brought up.
Lu Qianqian found the abundance of roses overwhelming. Who would apologize by giving roses? Anyone who didn't know better would think she and Young Master Rong had some kind of intimate connection.
"I'm so tired." Lu Qianqian rubbed her temples and said to Dong Hanlin, "Thank you for keeping me company today. It's getting late, go home and get some sleep."
"No, I'll go to the front desk and get a room so I can stay and keep you company," Dong Hanlin said. "Just give me a call if anything happens, and I'll be right there."
