Chapter 584
girl in front of her."You vicious little wretch! How could you be so cruel as to drug me You dare to drug me!"She ranted and raved, but completely ignored the fact that she had picked up the bottle o...I can't let this awful person ruin her two precious babies! They are just children, no matter how angry I am, I can't condone their biting behavior. I won't allow such a memory to become an accepted norm in their minds!
"Youyou, Haohuo!" Lin Meng shouted fiercely. "All of you stand still and don't move!"
But the two little kids still glared fiercely at Rong Qixiang, as if they were going to eat him. Their faces, so ferocious yet so heart-wrenching. She heard Rong Qixiang say he was going to give Rong Lingkai a death certificate, and she went mad, with a murderous impulse. So these two little guys who loved their father must have felt the same way.
This is definitely not their fault!
But, that's all there is to it!
"Yoyo, Haohuo!" Lin Meng shouted again, struggling. As Dayang quickly released her, she strode towards the two children. She crouched down and with one hand on each child's mouth, she felt the blood on her hands.
"All of you, stand still!"
She looked at the two little ones coldly.
The two little ones had now stopped their fierce looks and stood still, no longer struggling to get away.
"Never do this again!"
She scolded him harshly.
The two little ones pursed their lips and remained silent.
Lin Meng also pursed her lips and stood up.
"Come on, let's go wash your face!"
As he spoke, he strode away. The two little ones, with their faces set in grim determination, followed dutifully behind him, behaving like obedient rabbits. Of course, these were rabbits with a great deal of pride. Look at their straight backs, still radiating defiance.
Thank goodness, finally someone who can handle these two.
Two police officers secretly rejoiced in their hearts, finally able to free their hands. One went to help temporarily stop the bleeding, while the other went to get some antiseptic.
"Officer A requested, "Ma'am, please let her go."
Miao Qing coldly refused. "She's a pain in the ass, let's just shut her up for a while,"
"You're breaking the law!" the police threatened.
Miao Qing let out a cold snort, her eyes sharp.
"Whether or not it's illegal, I know in my heart. But she disrespects life and wants to kill a living person, and you guys are still helping her, that's definitely illegal!"
The policeman stiffened, and then didn't dare to speak!
In the bathroom, after two little ones finished washing their faces and rinsing their mouths, Lin Meng, with a stern face, used wet wipes to wipe their small faces clean one by one, then scolded them.
"You're still young, you shouldn't have done that just now. Leave this to Mommy to handle!"
"But, we are our father's sons!" Little Youyou retorted stubbornly, his dark eyes flashing with defiance.
“But Mommy feels heartbroken!” Lin Meng sighed sadly. “Mommy wants you to be like ordinary children, not carrying so much burden, and not being so cruel. Mommy feels heartbroken, Mommy wants to protect you behind her back, Mommy doesn't want to dirty your hands, or your mouths!”
"But we also want to protect Mommy, and we have to defend Daddy too. If anyone dares to touch my Mommy and Daddy, I'll make them pay!"
This tone, as always, remains ferocious.
"You silly child!" Lin Meng couldn't help but pinch his little face. "Be good for me and listen to Mommy!"
"You're listening, right" Little Youyou looked at Lin Meng fearlessly, but his attitude remained firm. "Mommy, Youyou is not a child anymore. Don't treat Youyou like a child. Daddy said that Youyou is a man, and if Daddy isn't by Mommy's side, then Youyou has to protect Mommy! Youyou won't act like a child, Youyou will be a man. Rong Qixiang, I must teach you a lesson!"
He is very insistent!
And, he called her by name. That wasn't his aunt, that was someone who had offended his father, who had offended their whole family. It was an enemy! When dealing with enemies, one must be as merciless as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves!
Lin Meng couldn't beat him!
This child is too independent!
“Mommy knows both of your minds, but no matter how old you two get, you’ll always be Mommy’s children. You have to understand Mommy’s heartache for you two. What just happened, let it go. But after you go back, the two of you are not allowed to take action again. Rong Qixiang, let Mommy handle it. Mommy is not as weak as you think. When it's time to be tough, I will be!”
Although the two children were reluctant, they still nodded.
Lin Meng led the two children back. At this time, Rong Qixiang's leg had also received initial treatment and was bandaged. The room was now more crowded with Rong Feiwu and Rong Qi, as well as Rong Qiru. It is estimated that he was by someone's side at the time and heard the news, so he followed along. Jiang Chengfeng, Captain Wan, and the chief of the division were also there.
Lin Meng first nodded at everyone, then swept his cold gaze towards the officer who had been in charge of this moment before.
"I need a detailed explanation about this!"
Of course the police were fully prepared, feigning innocence as they claimed.
Here's the translation:"The thing is, Ms. Rong Qixiang came over this morning and said she wanted to get a death certificate for Rong Ling. According to regulations, relatives have this right. Ms. Rong Qixiang showed her kinship certificate with Rong Ling and stated that Mrs. Lin Meng, Rong Ling's wife, was too busy with work to come herself, so she entrusted Ms. Rong to do it. On our side, we confirmed that Rong Ling fell into the sea, and according to common sense, there was no possibility of survival, so we were going to follow the procedure. However, we didn't expect Mrs. Lin Meng to arrive…"
He hesitated, a look of embarrassment crossing his face.
Lin Meng's eyes were cold as needles, piercing straight into the person in charge.
“How dare she show up here as if she's related to us! Someone who we barely interact with, and even had a grudge against, just because she shares some blood with us, she becomes family! Is this how your police department operates Simply going through the motions! I, Rong Ling's wife, his closest person, why wasn't I informed! What that woman says is law now! Are you being unreasonable Incompetent Or are you deliberately trying to pull something over on us”
"Well, it's nothing. It's just following procedure..." the person in charge quickly defended himself. "Because Rong Ling fell into the sea, the search effort was so extensive that even foreign countries have stopped their rescue operations. After so many days and still no news, there's basically no chance of survival. So when the relatives came forward with this request, we cooperated."
"Róng Líng is not dead yet, what are you guys cooperating for!" Lin Mèng stepped forward aggressively, glaring fiercely at the person in charge. "I warn you, don't say he's dead again, or I'll sue you!"
"Chief…" The person in charge stepped back half a step, his face contorted with grief, and looked at the Chief with an aggrieved expression.
The chief's face was very dark, and he directly reprimanded the person in charge.
"This time it's your fault, you haven't been serious about your work. Although you followed the rules and regulations, you should have personally called Lin Meng to confirm instead of just listening to Rong Qixiang's one-sided words!"
This statement, although seemingly a reprimand, carried a subtle air of protection towards the person in charge.
Du Caiyi's work is never subpar, and naturally she has considered everything. This person agreed to this, so they must have come prepared. Indeed, given Rong Ling's situation, obtaining a death certificate is perfectly normal. With Rong Qixiang, her stepsister, stepping in, the police can only do so much. What mistakes could they possibly make!
The forest's dream was troubled, a sound of grievance and anger rose, sharp and piercing.
"Could this just be a simple case of negligence If I hadn't arrived in time, wouldn't they have issued a death certificate! The next step would have been to declare him dead! Isn't it excessive to put a living person on the death list! Put yourselves in my shoes, if this were your spouse, could you swallow this! I will sue, today everyone involved in this, none of you can escape! You wanted my husband dead, you have to pay the price!"
"Director—" the person in charge immediately appealed to the Director for help.
This is all part of a scheme, a tangled web, everything is connected.
The Chief tried to dissuade Lin Meng, but Lin Meng wouldn't listen and just made a phone call.
"This is unfair. Let's leave it to the lawyers."
Don't mess with her, or she'll bite one by one!
After Rong Fei Wu arrived, Rong Qi Xiang was immediately released by Miao Qing. She then put on a pitiful expression, shedding tears and looking at Rong Fei Wu with a wronged look, trying to evoke the strong empathy of her father. Seeing Lin Meng so determined, she turned to Rong Fei Wu for help.
"Dad, what's wrong with what I did! People can't come back to life after they die. They should be laid to rest, and Rong Ling deserves a tombstone so he can finally rest in peace. Lin Meng has been keeping this all bottled up for so long, what is she really thinking Only she knows!"
Lin Meng glared fiercely at Rong Qi Xiang.
"This is my family's business, and it's none of your concern. Get lost! You never act this concerned before, only now are you so eager to help. Rong Xianger, what are you hiding"
Rong Qi Xiang was slightly embarrassed by Lin Meng's merciless words, but she quickly retorted.
"Humph, you're the one with something to hide! You're withholding Rong Ling's death certificate and refusing to declare him dead. You're secretly transferring his assets! A sparrow flies into a phoenix's nest – that's what you want, isn't it!"
Lin Meng's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at her. At the same time, something flashed quickly through her mind.
“You—you’re after Rong Ling’s assets!”
Her face had become somewhat sinister. When she met Xiang's eyes, they immediately dodged hers, and she feigned composure, arguing, "No, you're the one who's thinking about it." She was so angry that she felt like her lungs were about to explode.
This damn woman!
“My husband’s property has nothing to do with you, stay as far away from me as possible. Even if I die, it's none of your business! You are such a greedy, despicable woman!”
This woman drove her to curse!
Rong Qi Xiang flushed red. "You said who's a cheapskate You are the cheapskate—"
"You bitch!" Lin Meng glared at her coldly.
Rongqi Xiang shouted angrily, "You're the one who's shameless, wanting to hoard my brother's entire inheritance for yourself. I may not have the right to inherit, but my dad and mom do! Don't even think about stealing their shares. Don't act like nobody knows what you're doing!" "I know!"
Before he could finish his words, Rong Fei roared in fury.
"Enough, shut up. Rong Ling is not dead yet, no one is allowed to mention his inheritance to me!"
But daddy—
"Are you going to make me hit you!" Rong Fei glared at Rong Qi Xiang with rage, his entire demeanor radiating menace!
Rong Qixiang was frightened all of a sudden and didn't dare to speak.
Feng Fei frowned, his heart filled with anger. Why were these two children so troublesome The more they were needed, the more they made a fuss!
Wow, that's amazing!
If I didn't see her as my daughter, I would have slapped her!
He was simply furious! His old face had been completely disgraced by his own children!
"Mumu, don't get upset, just do it your way!"
He was completely on Lin Meng's side!
He owed Rong Ling a huge debt. This time, he absolutely couldn't wrong him again, nor could he wrong his family!
"Dad—" Rong Qixiang couldn't believe it. How could her father do such a thing! She was his biological daughter, his only daughter, the one he had doted on since she was little!
Feng Fei ignored him.
Lin Meng didn't condone Fei Wu's feelings either. She didn't need them, and she couldn't use them at all. If she were to be ruthless, even Rong Fei Wu, she could handle it!
"This isn't as simple as it seems!" she snorted, her anger still evident. "I will investigate thoroughly, and I won't let anyone get away with it who is involved."
She gave Rong Feiwu a cold glance. Her intuition told her that Du Caiyi was definitely involved. If Rong Feiwu stood on Du Caiyi's side, she would have dealt with him too!
Feng Fei saw the situation and could only sigh inwardly! That careless one at home, he should have been more decisive that day and cut off her external communications directly. After years of marriage, he just thought about it, and he knew for sure that she must be involved in this!
Alright, let Lin Meng discipline her then. He's told that woman countless times, but she's always putting in one ear and out the other, it's not very effective. Let a junior teach her a lesson, so she'll remember deeply and won't mess around anymore.
Rong Feiwu this time absolutely did not intervene, that was also because he had calculated that this matter could not make much of a splash, but it just happened to let Du Caiyi and Rong Qixiang both receive some lessons. Just like what the lawyer Wei Zhengsong who was invited later said, Rong Qixiang's opening of the death certificate was, in the end, not truly carried out, it could only be considered an attempt, criminally would not bear any responsibility, and could only be compensated economically. Because, Rong Ling was indeed such a situation.
Article 168 of the Civil Procedure Law stipulates: If a person goes missing due to an accident, and relevant authorities prove that the citizen is impossible to survive, they can immediately apply for a declaration of death.
Only then did Rong Qixiang come to this step of issuing a death certificate. She was considered family and came under the guise of Lin Meng. On the police side, they couldn't pursue too much responsibility. They could only say that Rong Qixiang had committed deceitful acts with malicious intent. But in the end, she didn't succeed and there wasn't much to investigate further.
The police were very quick to apologize to Lin Meng and then shifted most of the blame onto Rong Qixian. Rong Qixian vehemently defended herself, claiming that she acted entirely in the best interests of her family and that it was done to ensure Rong Ling's early demise. She also pointed out that Lin Meng had attacked first and that her leg had been bitten by the two children, leaving her injured and distressed, so she would be hiring a lawyer to defend herself.
In a nutshell, it's messy.
This wouldn't seem like a big deal to others. Declaring someone dead in an application isn't the final word, after all. But they couldn't understand Lin Meng's near-desperate state of mind. She had struggled this long, just waiting for Rong Ling to return. You declare Rong Ling dead, you're essentially sentencing her. If you're going to take her life, wouldn't she fight back!
Finally, the police and both lawyers agreed to treat it as a civil matter and settled it privately. Lin Meng’s assault was understandable because she was too angry. The two children were still young, biting someone is also understandable. As for Rong Qixiang's actions, aside from the deliberate deception, everything else can be understood!
This commotion has inevitably brought Rong Ling's property matters to the forefront. Not only are the Rong family members paying close attention, but the outside world has also begun to take notice.
Lin Meng wanted to go find Du Caiyi to settle the score, but Du Caiyi claimed innocence. Her family had also invited someone to watch as a bystander, so she could protect herself from Lin Meng's attack. What could Lin Meng do
"I won't let you get away with this!"
Lin Meng glared at her hatefully, her heart filled with rage that could tear her apart. Yet, she could only threaten her for now.
The people of Rong's family began to covet Rong Ling's wealth, claiming that during such a difficult time, he should set an example by donating part of his property to save the family business. Even though Lin Meng blocked them from declaring Rong Ling dead, in the eyes of some, Rong Ling was already deceased, and that meant the inheritance! They demanded that Rong Ling's estate be frozen to prevent it from being secretly transferred away by those with ulterior motives!
This is practically forcing Lin Meng!
Lin Mengqi's entire body trembled with anger. These imbeciles, they should all be led out and sold! She had gone to great lengths to save the Rong family business, but ended up raising this pack of pigs. It was infuriating and ridiculous!
The money from the delisting had already been well prepared, so they didn't need to raise funds anywhere else. The Rong family was weak and showing signs of struggling for survival, wasn't that just to lull outsiders into a false sense of security and make the authorities lower their guard! But these people actually turned around and started eyeing Rong Ling's assets, repeatedly pushing him to his death!
That's just messed up!
A bunch of pigs, pigs!
Rong Qi also got angry and directly issued a statement. "Rong Ling's property is Rong Ling's own business. Anyone in the clan who dares to covet it, get out of the Rong family immediately!"
Rong Fei, having been the former head of the household and also Rong Ling's father, issued a statement.
"Don't even think about touching that property, I haven't opened my mouth on it, and no one else should think of reaching for it!"
This matter will be overseen by Rong Si and his team throughout the process. Anyone who dares to gossip again will be thrown out. The less of these useless people there are in the Rong family, the better!
Under such circumstances, everyone is apprehensive and afraid to speak!
Rong Qi still spoke up. “Anyone who disrespects Lin Meng is disrespecting him, Rong Qi, and he will definitely make that person pay!”
Rong Fei quickly cooperated with his statement. "Lin Meng is undoubtedly the mistress of this house, and she has absolute decision-making power over this family and Yadon. Anyone who disobeyed her would be dealt with directly by her, and others are not allowed to object!"
Then, many who had already stood on Lin Meng's side also released words of support.
Suddenly, everyone realized that more than two-thirds of the people in the household were standing on Lin Meng's side. This figure was astonishing. In such a short period of time, Lin Meng had won over so many hearts to such an extent! This charm and strategy were truly astounding! Among all the head matriarchs throughout history, she could be considered one of the best!
Du Caiyi was shocked, angry, and jealous. Lin Meng's charisma could easily leave her in the dust! She had intended to gain personally by harming Lin Meng, but unexpectedly, her actions only served to elevate Lin Meng's status. Rong Qi vehemently defended Lin Meng, and Rong Fei, acting as if possessed, also fiercely protected him. Even those within the family who remained neutral joined Lin Meng's side. This overwhelming support awakened some who had been opposed to Lin Meng.
She's trying to get something for nothing!
Rong Fei Wu's meaning was that if he didn't decide how to divide the inheritance, then no one else should even think about it. Her original plan had been foiled by the thunderous actions of several powerful men in the Rong family. Those who had been clamoring for the distribution of the inheritance all retreated and dared not speak again. She wanted to stir up trouble, but she couldn't. Rong Fei Wu was particularly efficient and quickly confined her, cutting off all communication with the outside world. Even her daughter Rong Qi Xiang, she wasn't allowed to see.
She was so angry she could spit blood, desperate to scratch the walls, but there was nothing she could do!
Inside the Rong family, the matter of dividing up the inheritance was swiftly suppressed. Although there were some ripples at first, they quickly subsided. Regardless of whether any undercurrents were still swirling beneath the surface, at least the lake had returned to calm.
Those outside, seeing this, knew there was no commotion to be seen, and began to confidently discuss amongst themselves. They talked about Rong Ling's death, which had been twelve days ago. Even the strongest man, adrift in the vast ocean, would surely have died, let alone Rong Ling who had been shot several times.
Once again, they talked about Lin Meng. That woman was truly admirable. Despite not being respected by the Rong family, she shouldered the burden of Yadong with unwavering determination. Facing doubts, cold shoulders, and difficulties from everyone, she persevered and brought a glimmer of hope to Yadong, which was on the brink of collapse. However, this poor woman lost her husband at such a young age. It's truly heartbreaking. Can a mistress of the Rong family remarry after her husband's death That probably wouldn't be easy. Even if she remarried, it's likely that the Rong family would take most of Rong Ling's inheritance. Rong Ling died so suddenly without even a will. It would be difficult for Lin Meng to keep hold of his inheritance. Don't be fooled by the fact that the Rong family has suppressed this matter for now. I guarantee there will be trouble regarding the inheritance in the future!
Lin Meng hid in the suite attached to the CEO's office. She was shivering all over, curling up into a ball like a shrimp on the bed. Her face was wet, and her clothes were half-soaked. It was both from the sweltering heat and the cold that emanated from deep within her. The conflicting hot and cold made her feel as if she was standing at the border between heaven and hell, one foot in each, agonizingly alive and dead at the same time!
Her faith, which she had so diligently built up, that Rong Ling would surely return safe and sound, was shattered by Du Caiyi's revelation. Outside, discussions about Rong Ling's death began to rage. Nine out of ten people were saying: in this state, how could he possibly survive! No one dared to voice it in front of her, but the look in their eyes betrayed their pity, which almost broke her. That familiar pain from Germany flooded back, like a hurricane sweeping over her and then, like a giant wave, swallowing her whole.
Can she still surface!
Is she still alive!
Can Rong Ling still come back alive!
I don't know, she doesn't know anything.
She struggled to hold onto her belief, but it was crushed!
Rong Jia has reached this point now, and afterwards, nothing major should happen even without her, so she can retire after achieving success, right! She has also given Rong Ling an explanation, right! So, can she let go and then set off to find him!
Bearing… Bearing…
She clutched the bedsheet beneath her, her heart shrinking in a vise of icy dread and sharp, agonizing pain. It contracted again and again, each contraction a fresh wave of unbearable agony.
If it can't hold on any longer, then wouldn't it just explode...
She clutched her chest in pain, yet a pale smile involuntarily curled her lips!
……
No one could help her, she just collapsed like that. It was as if all the days of working tirelessly, fighting tooth and nail, had finally taken their toll. Exhaustion had piled up to a point where it all erupted at once, crushing down on her like a mountain. [..tw超多好看小說]
Though she was not sick, her body fluctuated between hot and cold, her complexion shifting from red to pale. All those who cared for her were worried! The best doctors at Shuangmu Hospital were called in, but they also shook their heads. Her heart was the problem; she refused to open up, which severely limited the doctor's ability to help.
Two small cradles beside Lin Meng's bed wailed loudly, but they couldn't restore the luster to her dim eyes!
This stalemate continued until the news of He Ya's death arrived!
This venomous beauty, on her deathbed, did something earth-shattering. She shot and killed Mu Xinfeng in front of everyone.
The incident took place at a large department store, around 8:30 PM. Mu Xinfeng was with his two sons, helping them choose clothes, when He Ya, who was pushing a wheelchair, suddenly appeared and shot Rong Henduo without warning.
"You made my life a living hell, and even in death I won't find peace!"
She went crazy again and fired at her youngest son, Rong Hengda. But this shot was blocked by Mu Xinfeng. The power of maternal love is always great, and in critical moments, it is the strongest and most mysterious. I don't know where Mu Xinfeng's speed and courage came from, he rushed directly towards He Ya, using his body to block the bullet, not to mention that in the end, he tightly hugged He Ya, restraining her arm holding the gun. He Ya fired many shots in succession, most of which hit Mu Xinfeng's body. But even so, she couldn't shake him off. She finally looked at Rong Henduo, who was shot and lying on the ground, and after a sneer, she said crazily:
"You can't stop me, and your precious eldest son is definitely going to die!"
Mu Xin Feng's mouth bled, yet he mechanically held onto He Ya. Such an action was all supported by a single thought.
He Ya shouted inexplicably, her voice so loud that even the panicked fleeing passersby could hear it.
"Lin Meng, what do you have to be proud of! Rong Ling keeps saying he loves you, but with his status and family background, he didn't even prepare a will for you beforehand. Hmph, actually, he doesn't love you as much as you think. You are just a pitiful worm, a pitiful..."
After that, he gave the last two bullets to himself and died!
In the final days of her life, this woman who lived worse than death finally completed all her revenge. Although it wasn't perfect, she felt satisfied. Mu Xinfeng had to die, Rong Qikeng had to die, and so did Mu Xinfeng's two sons. The He family was weakened, losing Liu family's protection, their good days were numbered. Before the He family truly fell, she had to complete everything she needed to do.
The killer with cold eyes, she had made contact. In that backward place in Africa, killing a person, or dying, was too easy, too ordinary. She waited, choosing the right time to wipe out the entire Rong Qikeng family. As for Lin Meng, she also hated her, but there was no chance to make a move against her. Lin Meng was now under layers of protection; if she made a move, she would only implicate herself. However, Rong Ling was already dead, and the matter of dividing the inheritance had arisen. Hehe, wouldn't this allow Lin Meng to suffer in life! Even if that man loved her dearly, after death, his belongings wouldn't all belong to her. She would put every effort into vying for them, but she could only snatch a part. She would spend the rest of her life with this money, and she would surely be filled with rage inside! Just thinking about it would hurt! Then, even the deepest love would turn into resentment!
Haha...
She certainly can't live easily anymore, and that's good!
He Ya thought, this really had everything prepared. So when Mu Xin Feng brought his two sons to the department store, the wind of opportunity was blowing, and she knew it was time!
The assassin on the other end, upon receiving her order, effortlessly shot Rong Qikeng with a single bullet and sent her the photo as proof. After confirming receipt, she pushed her wheelchair around, making several turns before finding Mu Xinfeng, whom she had already been keeping an eye on beforehand.
Today, she had no intention of returning alive. She would kill Mu Xinfeng and her two sons, and then relish in mocking Lin Meng, making sure she would never have a happy ending and would live out her days pitifully in the eyes of others.
She was pleased with her actions, even in death, a smug smile on her lips. She wanted the world to see that she, even in death, was the ultimate victor. It was a pity, though, because Mu Xin Feng held her tightly, so the two bullets lodged in her body couldn't kill her instantly. Thus, she died amidst constant bleeding and pain, her face contorted with agony.
With a smug smile, she no longer had the energy to maintain it!
The result was that Mu Xin Feng died on the spot, He Ya also died. Rong Heng Duo was sent to the hospital for emergency rescue. Rong Heng Da was terrified, crying and shouting, biting anyone he saw, and finally fainted. He was also sent to the hospital.
Then, the news spread, and the Rong family was shaken once again.
Rong Fei rushed to the hospital with Du Cai Yi, ignoring the house arrest he had imposed on her. Rong Heng Duo was still in critical condition.
Lin Meng's eyes lit up again as she heard the news from Miao Qing.
She has a new goal to strive for!
He Ya, the He family, the Liu family……
She died just like that It's too easy for her!
What's left of the He family, there's no way to let them get away. She wants revenge! The He family had devastated the Rong family back then, making her man work so hard. Her man fell off a cliff, and they blocked Jiang Yancheng, preventing his rescue application from going through, and deliberately delaying the rescue operation for a long time. If that rescue application had been approved without any obstacles and the aircraft had been dispatched quickly by the De side, then Rong Ling would have been found and wouldn't have been swept away to who knows where because of the delay!
Revenge!
Yes, she wants revenge!
She can't fall down yet, she still has things to do!
First, she wants to clean up the He family!
Second, the Liu family has powerful protection. She can't uproot them, but she can still knock down the leaves on the ground. In short, we can't just let the Liu family off the hook.
Even though Du Caiyi and Rong Qixiang are now pitiful, having lost Mu Xinfeng and with Rong Hentuo whose fate is uncertain, the two women had offended her and she couldn't let them go!
Moreover, she had to figure out Rong Ling's assets. She still had her mother-in-law and two sons, so she absolutely couldn't just disappear like this in a daze. Before she left, she had to arrange these three people properly. As for Rong Ling's estate, she wouldn't miss a single thing that she was entitled to. Then, she would make a will to protect her old, second, and youngest!
With a goal in her heart, her frail body seemed to gain an inexplicable strength. She stood up and plunged back into work. On the side of Yadong, things were progressing smoothly according to the original plan. As for He's family, she had Miao Qing handle Xia Ru, the woman who caused He Zhanxu to stray, securing the final guarantee!
The He family was originally on the list of those to be dealt with. But that was during the first stage of delisting, after the He family began to withdraw from public life. It would have been a warning to the outside world by the retreating Rong family, letting everyone know that even though the Rong family is not as powerful as before, if you offend me, I will fight you to the death and won't stop until you are left with nothing.
Since He Ya has now caused such a stir, it might as well expedite the actions against the He family. Because of He Ya's actions, the He family is already in disarray!
We are very concerned about this extremely violent murder that took place in such a public setting, and moreover, the victim is the daughter-in-law of the Rong family, who have recently been hinted at by several high-ranking officials to be protected. Therefore, the police are taking the murder of Mu Xin Feng very seriously. Surveillance measures were quickly implemented against the He family.
Because, He Ya has a gun!
In this country, carrying a firearm is illegal and extremely serious. Where did He Ya's gun come from! She's just a woman, who gave her the gun! Was it a gun smuggled out of the military by the He family!
Then news came from Africa that Rong Qi had died. The police intensified their surveillance of the He family, thoroughly checking everyone and searching every corner of their home inside and out!
To hire a hitman and cross international borders, what path are you truly on! Or is there some unknown path the He family follows!
At this time, the He family was too vulnerable, like a small sapling in the wilderness with nothing to shield it from the wind. Attacking it would be too easy; bringing it down would be just a matter of time!
This is a great opportunity for the Rong family, a chance to fight back!
The most crucial move can finally be played!
Even though Miao Qing had omitted the last malicious remark He Ya intended to convey to Lin Meng when informing her about the murder, Lin Meng eventually learned about it from the internet.
"Lin Meng, what do you have to be proud of! Rong Ling claims to love you, but with his status and background, he doesn't even have a will prepared for you beforehand. Hmph, actually, he doesn't love you as much as you think. You're just a pitiful creature, a pathetic worm..."
This sentence made her mood complex all of a sudden.
Do you remember, when he first made a deal with the imposter Li Lanqiu, he asked her if she had any objections in her heart She even smiled and said that she didn't care at all, wanting to raise him as her little white face. But now, everything has become empty, yet there is an unspeakable desolation!
This is not his fault, it was the mission's design. He accidentally fell into the sea and his life or death remains unknown, it's not his fault!
Now it's like this, just because of fate playing tricks... Fate playing tricks...
She let out a soft sigh, swallowing the sour taste that had filled her mouth.
She couldn't care less about what's in the will!
But the next morning, she received a call asking her to go to Shuangmu Hospital, where there was a will to be announced. The caller also requested that she bring her two sons. At the same time, Rong's mother, Rong Feiwu, Du Caoyi, Rong Qixian, Rong Qi, Shi Yu, Xiao Kuang, and Yu Xu also received the call. However, Yu Xu was abroad and unable to make it, so he was absent.
Everyone rushed to the hospital ward, but it turned out that Rong Ling had left a will. However, Mr. Weng Duo'ai, the legal giant who kept the will, suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage the day before yesterday evening and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. He regained consciousness until this morning. Mr. Weng is usually in good health, and this stroke came very suddenly. Fortunately, the rescue was timely, and because he had a good foundation, the surgery was successful, and he recovered his consciousness soon after.
Mr. Wong, as he was in possession of Rong Ling's will, paid close attention to the affairs of the Rong family after Rong Ling went missing at sea. After regaining consciousness, his son knew that he was concerned about the Rong family, so he informed his father of the latest developments concerning them. Mr. Wong instructed his son to return home and retrieve a file bag from the bottom drawer of the safe. He then asked his son to notify the relevant parties.
Things outside have gotten to this point, he absolutely has to read this will!
As soon as Du Caiyi heard about the reading of the will and that she had a share, a glimmer of excitement flashed across her face. What exactly did Rong Ling leave for her She never expected that despite being so terrible, he still left something for her in the will!
If it weren't for the fact that she had just lost her son and daughter-in-law, she would definitely be smiling right now. But at this moment, her heart is weighed down by their deaths, and she can't bring herself to smile. However, there is a glimmer of hope in her heart!
Rong Qi Xiang's mood is similar to that of Du Cai Yi!
Finally, after everyone had taken their seats in the high-class ward, Mr. Wong Doai spoke with some difficulty.
"Because of… my… illness, therefore… this… reading of… the will… is… entrusted… to… my son… to… execute… Please… forgive… everyone!"
Elder Wong has always been highly respected in the legal community. He had just undergone a risky surgery and immediately called everyone together to read his will, which is truly commendable. People wouldn't object to someone else reading it. So, Qiqi expressed her agreement. Moreover, Elder Wong's son is also an excellent lawyer who inherited his father's legacy and has a certain reputation in the legal field. There's nothing wrong with him reading the will!
Then the old man's son began to read the will. But as soon as the will was finished, someone became agitated.
"That's it" Rong Qi Xiang couldn't help but sharply cry out! "How is it possible that all the inheritance goes to Lin Meng!"
What about hers What about hers She doesn't have any, so why call her over!
What's going on! What is happening!
Du Caiyi wasn't calm either, and Rong Qixiang's question was exactly what she wanted to ask!
"This is the will!"
Mr. Ong's son spoke seriously, then distributed the pre-prepared photocopies to each person. Everyone bowed their heads to look, and the photocopy was indeed exactly as Mr. Ong's son had read, not a single word missing. The final signature at the end was also undeniably Rong Ling's name!
Shi Yu and Xiao Xiang let out a huge sigh of relief!
Just say, big brother is very reliable when it comes to doing things!
That's better!
Rong Qi was nonchalant, he didn't expect anything from Rong Ling anyway. Although Madam Rong was a little surprised, she quickly came to terms with it. This was her son's decision, and as his mother, she would absolutely support him. As for Rong Fei Wu, he felt a slight disappointment in his heart. His son really didn't acknowledge him as his father. But when he thought about how determined his son was, even his own mother didn't get a single share, the feeling of disappointment immediately dissipated!
Lin Meng was stunned. There was relief in her heart, but also pain. The will had been written the day after Wu Shengnan's death. This man had written it so quickly, what could she say to him! He had left her everything, this fool! What a fool! He had thought of everything for her, but did he know that she didn't want his inheritance All she wanted was for him to come back. Then she wouldn't have to think about anything, just let him take care of her, live a simple life, happily with him until they grew old together, happily together till the end. Even if death came, they would face it together, hand in hand!
Now she sits here, while he...
Her nose felt sore, and she was about to cry, but Du Caiyi's shout stopped her.
“This is fake, this is fake, Rong Ling couldn't possibly leave behind such a will. He has a mother and a son, he couldn't possibly ignore his mother and son and leave all his inheritance to Lin Meng. So, this will must be fake, it definitely must be fake, it's not real, it's not real, it's unreasonable, it's unreasonable...”
"Yes, it's unreasonable, it's unreasonable!" Rong Qixiang shouted along, staring wide-eyed at Elder Wong and his son.
Others frowned.
Rong Fei Wu sternly rebuked. "Old Wen wouldn't do such a thing! This will, taken from his hand, is genuine!"
Old Wong's son looked displeased, but because of Rong Fei Wu, he suppressed it, and said coldly.
"If you doubt the authenticity of this will, then you can have it appraised by a professional institution. However, my father has been in this profession for nearly fifty years. This reputation he's built is the result of his almost half-century of hard work and the respect earned from everyone. Therefore, before speaking, please show some respect. Otherwise, our family will inevitably fight to defend my father's honor!"
The Weng family is now a veritable legal dynasty. Their offspring, near and far, have all benefited from Mr. Weng's guidance and support, establishing themselves in the legal profession. You know, lawyers are among the most formidable professionals out there. If they decide to go after you, there's no way you can handle it!
Du Caiyi, upon hearing this, immediately became honest!
She wasn't a fool after all, knowing when to bend with the times. Rong Qixian understood this too, and immediately stopped shouting along!
Old Mr. Ong's son then beckoned Lin Meng, Rong Fei Wu, Rong Qi, Rong Mama, and Shi Yu forward to see the original will! All four except Lin Meng nodded in agreement with the contents of the will.
Du Caiyi, seeing the situation, immediately said, "I still think this will is unreasonable because Rong Ling couldn't possibly not care about his mother and son. Besides, I heard from Wu Shengnan, uh, she's a woman very close to Rong Ling. I heard her say that Rong Ling would leave all his property to her. So, I really have some doubts about this will!"
Due to the warning from Mr. Wong's son, her tone was not as sharp, and she expressed her views as calmly and rationally as possible.
"It's done and over with. Besides, the timing of this will is too suspicious. It was made right before he disappeared, adding more weight to the suspicion. And this is Shuangmu Hospital, Rong Ling brothers' territory. His brothers definitely helped Lin Meng. Who knows what happened during his hospital stay..."
She sneered, she was about to say whether this will was forged or not, but when she met the sharp gaze of Old Ong's son, she quickly changed her words. "So, let's have this will examined for authenticity!"
Rong Fei's eyes bulged, and he glared at her fiercely.
“Just shut up! This has nothing to do with you from beginning to end. The will is Rong Ling's own signature, that's his true meaning, don't talk nonsense!”
“As his mother and for the sake of his son, I'm doing this! This young woman has received money now, she doesn't care about our old matters anymore. Besides, Rong Ling isn't that foolish to abandon his own mother and son!”
"Mother, just grunted. "My business, not your concern. This is my son's will, carry it out!"
Two little kids hummed in unison. "None of your business, shut up!"
Du Caiyi was teased until she had no face, but she still had to tease. She really couldn't bear to just come back empty-handed, and besides, she truly suspected the authenticity of this will!
"True gold fears no fire, this will is genuine, so naturally it won't fear scrutiny!"
"Humph!" Shi Yu let out a snort from his nose. True gold isn't afraid of fire refinement, but it's afraid of what tricks might happen during the process!
Mr. Wong spoke up again at this time.
“Continue!”
He did this because he heard about the discord within the Rong family. That's why he read this will today and called so many beneficiaries not named in the will!
Old Master Wen’s son, upon hearing this, suppressed the disgust and disdain he felt for Du Caixian. With a blank expression, he took out two more files from the briefcase. He then distributed a photocopy of the page listing the beneficiary to everyone present. As for the specific assets, those who were not beneficiaries had no right to view them; they remained confidential!
After both copies were available to everyone, Old Mr. Wong's son explained.
“These two are the last wills and testaments left by Rong Ling. You can refer to them. Rong Ling had made several wills, and the one that first appeared mentioning Lin Meng was when she returned from America in the late autumn of last year. At that time, Rong Ling rewrote his will, dividing his assets into four parts: one for a retired veteran re-employment fund, designated to be managed jointly by his godbrother Shi Yu and others; one for his mother; one for his son, Lin Chengyou; and one for Lin Meng. Then, two days before Rong Ling and Lin Meng registered their marriage, he made another will, stating that all his assets would be inherited by Lin Meng. And then there is this latest and final will. This change fully explains the rationality of this final will. Of course, you are free to examine it. Take these two with you, both personally signed by Rong Ling, as a reference!”
Having said that, Old Man Wang's son cast a meaningful look at Du Caiyi and her mother, a hint of sneer playing on his lips.
Rong Qi immediately spoke earnestly.
"Mr. Ong, we absolutely believe in the authenticity of this will. Madam Du Caiyi is mentally unstable due to the loss of her son and daughter-in-law, making her prone to confusion. Please don't take her words to heart. Mr. Ong is a respectable man, someone I have always admired for his character. Rong Ling's will was written by Mr. Ong himself, so we have absolute faith in it. It's admirable that despite recently undergoing such a dangerous surgery, Mr. Ong prioritized resting and immediately called us to read the will. We are deeply grateful and urge you to take care of your health. The legal profession in this country wouldn't be the same without figures like you."
Rong Qi was really good at speaking. As soon as he said those words, the somewhat gloomy expression on Lao Ong's son's face brightened up like sunshine.
"You're too kind. Reading the will is simply my father's duty. It's a matter of loyalty. Rong Ling entrusted his affairs to my father and placed such trust in him, so my father naturally couldn't disappoint his expectations. That's why, when my father suddenly suffered a brain hemorrhage, everyone at home panicked, worried sick. When my father woke up, we insisted he rest, but the moment he regained consciousness, he inquired about Rong family matters. Upon hearing that the Rong family had begun to quarrel over Rong Ling's inheritance, my father felt this matter couldn't be delayed any longer and had to call you all here to listen, so as to ease everyone's anxieties. In truth, my father always believed that Rong Ling was still alive and therefore never intended to read the will. It's just that..."
He paused, allowing everyone to fill in the blanks before continuing, "With Rong's situation like this, my father also had to bring out his will. However, this will won't take effect until after Rong Ling's death is officially declared. Today's reading is simply to give you all an idea!"
"We understand that, understand!" Rong Qi immediately replied.
Shi Yu and Xiao Qing also followed suit, indicating understanding. Then, they turned around and looked at Du Caiyi and her mother with undisguised warning and hostility.
From now on, if anyone dares to use a will to target Lin Meng, these brothers of theirs won't be polite!
At this point, the authenticity of the will was beyond doubt. Du Caiyi knew she had nothing left to argue about, and because Rong Feiwu was glaring at her fiercely, she remained silent. However, she couldn't help but curse Wu Shengnan in her heart, that dead girl, who had dared to spout nonsense in front of her. Rong Ling would leave all his property to her That was ridiculous!
A frog still wants to eat swan meat!
It's truly useless garbage!
Seeing her mother like this and her father looking so frightening, she just kept quiet.
After everyone else had paid their respects to Old Mr. Wang, they all left.
Old Mr. Ong's son called out to Lin Meng, who was walking at the back.
"Lin Meng, you can take a look at this will on your own. It has a detailed list of assets."
But Lin Meng shook her head, though her eyes were blurred by tears threatening to spill. She smiled softly but firmly said,
"No, I'll wait for Rong Ling to come back. He's definitely still alive!"
This man, taking such good care of her and loving her so much, he must definitely come back.
She never would have imagined that so long ago, right after she returned to the country, he was still so resentful of her, constantly saying he would make her pay and get revenge on her, yet he included her in his will.
This man, what should she say about him, and how should she love him!
He gave her too much, so much that she couldn't measure it!
The initial four-part will was his first intention, sent to his dearest comrade, most beloved mother, and his son who inherited his bloodline, and her—who at the time was still considered Mrs. Ruan to the outside world!
Later, she surpassed his comrades, his mother, even his son. It was as if she had surpassed everything. Therefore, he gave her everything!
In his heart, he must have been looking at her this way, treating her as the most important existence, someone worthy of him entrusting everything to!
He cares for her so much, he's definitely coming back!
Of course!
Definitely!
She will wait, not mentioning death. She'll keep waiting, for him to return!
Then, love him well and strive to love him!
He loves her, never boasts about it, yet reveals it everywhere, and with such profound love!
The news of the will quickly spread, causing quite a stir!
The Rong family naturally heard no more whispers about the inheritance. It was completely quiet. With Old Master Wu in control, even if you tried every trick, argued and struggled, you wouldn't be able to link the inheritance with anyone besides Lin Meng!
Outsiders say that Rong Ling is crazy for making such a will, disregarding his own mother and son. After all, Lin Meng is so young and beautiful. If she decides not to wait for Rong Ling anymore and remarries, what will become of his mother and son This is truly insane.
Some people say that Rong Ling was simply Rong Ling, different from ordinary people, with courage. To write such a will should be incredibly confident, confident that all his wives would take good care of his mother and son. Such him, such a will, is indeed worthy of Lin Meng's dedication to supporting the Rong family after his disappearance.
Of course, there are a few who are envious and jealous, saying that Rong Ling was deceived by beauties and foolishly made such a will because he didn't pass the test of beauty. But these voices only dare to discuss them in private. If they were said openly, they would definitely be met with scorn and cold treatment. If you can't achieve this yourself, and you are so narrow-minded, don't come out and embarrass yourself.
Women, on the other hand, were filled with envy. In this lifetime, if they could have a husband like him who loved his wife so deeply, it would be enough to die without regret!
At this point, He Ya became a complete laughingstock!
She had the courage to commit murder and suicide, which caused people to have mixed opinions about her. However, because of her final words and Rong Ling's will, all that she possessed has now become a derogatory term!
Such a clueless person, such a petty person, upon learning of this will, I estimate she would be the one who can't rest even in death!
However, it was also because of this will that many people's hearts were heated up. Most of them were men!
It is said that everyone didn't carefully look over the list of assets, but it was quite thick. How many assets would be inside It must be quite substantial. Rong Ling is the president of Shuangmu and holds the most shares in Shuangmu Group. These are definitely going to be given to Lin Meng. And Rong Ling is so unfathomable, he should probably have some other assets as well. By the way, Rong Ling definitely has shares of Yadong Corporation on hand. That's something valuable, money can't buy it. The stock price of Yadong on Nasdaq has been rising recently, and it seems to be heading towards its former peak. There are also two listed companies in China under Yadong, and there's no shortage of Rong Ling's assets within them. The stock prices have also rebounded recently. And besides, it is estimated that he also has a lot of real estate. This Kyoto city is incredibly expensive, every inch of land is worth its weight in gold. When Rong Ling gave Wu Shengnan a house, he didn't hesitate and directly gave her a villa. With Rong Ling's deep wisdom and shrewdness, he must have invested quite a bit in real estate.
In short, Lin Meng became a wealthy woman in the eyes of many men, definitely someone people coveted. Plus, her outstanding performance during this Asia-Pacific delisting and restructuring process made her even more memorable.
At this point, who would dare say that Lin Meng is incompetent in business He must be an idiot!
Lin Meng's abilities have been thoroughly confirmed!
With such a woman's help, wouldn't it be easy to amass a fortune of ten thousand gold pieces! Wouldn't the family business thrive!
Some dared to persevere, bearing it, enduring it, until they finally couldn't take it anymore and began showering Lin Meng with attention. At first, Lin Meng answered a few calls because the other party claimed to be discussing business. Later, feeling that something was off about their words, Lin Meng stopped answering unknown numbers and pushed all such calls onto Rong Ling's life secretary, Xia Duan, to handle.
Xia Duan thought viciously to himself, "Go to hell! Taking advantage of the boss's absence to flirt with his wife You're asking for trouble." When someone approached, Xia Duan relied on his sharp tongue, using words that were more hurtful than insults, forcing the other party to retreat in shame. As for the flowers, gifts, and invitations, Xia Duan handled them privately, not even notifying Lin Meng.
These embarrassing things, don't pollute Lin Meng's ears!
He thought to himself, naturally and with peace of mind!
And Lin Meng, as always, remained focused on her tasks.
That day, she was sitting in the CEO's office discussing with Rong Qifeng and others when her phone suddenly rang. She continued speaking while picking up her phone to glance at it, then froze.
Her sudden silence made everyone turn to look at her. Then, they saw a very strange expression appear on her face, as if she was hoping for something, yet also afraid, and carrying with it a kind of awe.
What's going on!
Lin Meng's heart suddenly surged with a wave. The person who called was Yu Xu. This wasn't unusual, only the time he called was abnormal.
Yu Xu was in charge of finding Rong Ling. He would call her every day around 7 pm domestic time to report the results. Naturally, half a month had passed, and his reports were always the same: no news. Then, every time, Shi Yu, Xiao Quing, Azhen, and others stationed at Rong Ling's house would come to comfort her, console her, and prevent her from overthinking or missing her too much.
It's only past two in the afternoon now, but Yu Xu just called. Is... there news!
"Thump—thump—"
Her heart started pounding in her chest, a faint ringing filled her ears, her breathing quickened, her face flushed hot, and she felt a feverish heat spreading through her body. A cold sweat broke out, and her palms became clammy all of a sudden.
The phone, still there relentlessly ringing.
She pressed her hand against her heart, which was pounding so hard it felt like it would burst from her chest. She pushed aside thoughts of potential tragedy, licked her dry lips, and with a burst of courage, pressed the phone button and blurted out her question.
"Did you find Rong Ling!"
All eyes in the room
turned to Lin Meng, fixed on her with an intense hope.
Lin Meng then held her phone, listening intently, her nervous sweat forming two rivulets that flowed down her temples.
On the other end of the phone, a laugh rose—low, deep, alluring, sexy, with a hint of indulgence, and also the most familiar.
"Baby, I miss you. Can you come pick me up and take me home"
Tears, in an instant, welled up and streamed from her eyes!
***Aside***
Ah, after much anticipation, Rong Ling has finally arrived!d there was a tenacity in him like that of bamboo. Moreover, seeing Rong Ling so naturally express his possessiveness over Lin Meng and kissing him so wantonly, Feng Tan's heart felt very resentful. H...
