righter, sparkling like stars in the darkness. Beneath that cold exterior lay a burning intensity, as if it could melt her completely."Rong Ling..."Her fearful whisper, involuntary, called out his nam...The female friend stole a glance at Rong Ling who was leaving on his own, sighing again that this man was truly as cold and ruthless as the rumors said. Looking at He Ya whose face was slightly pale, she couldn't help but feel a sense of schadenfreude. After all, they were friends, but also rivals. She wanted to see what kind of interests were at play here. Was it fame, power, money, or perhaps a certain man

"Young Rong and that Mrs. Ruan seem to be getting along very well, don't they! He just kissed her!" The female friend sighed as if she was feeling sorry for her.

He Ya gritted her teeth secretly, swallowing the metallic taste in her mouth. She raised her lips, putting on a noble smile as if it were a mask, and replied calmly.

"Men are all the same, they can't resist temptation. That woman is attractive, so he just played around a bit!"

"Oh…" The two female friends chimed in with smiles, but what they were thinking in their hearts was beyond human control!

He Ya was even more secretly swearing in her heart, today this humiliation, she will definitely get it back later!

Lin Meng didn't expect Rong Ling to say such a thing in the end. In the past, this man seemed particularly willing to see her eat humble pie in front of He Ya. How come today, it seems like the wind has changed!

Of course, Lin Meng wouldn't immediately show such astonishment on her face. It wasn't until she and Rong Ling turned a corner, avoiding He Ya and the others, that she looked at Rong Ling with some strangeness.

"How could this be!" Rong Ling raised his eyebrows, his aura... hmmm, it was rather imposing, yet it felt like he was hiding something.

Lin Meng rolled her eyes and giggled.

"It's nothing, this is quite good!"

This statement seems to have a touch of Zen to it. The little fellow, though clever, is also somewhat confused, looking at Lin Meng with bewilderment before turning to Rong Ling. However, the parents, who understand each other's hearts perfectly, remain silent.

After that, Lin Meng bought several sets of clothes happily and led her little ones to the children's area.

The little boy was like a little prince, surrounded by his beautiful mommy and gentle aunt. He tried on one outfit after another, one pair of shoes after another, and one hat after another. He listened to praise box after box.

"Madam, your son is really handsome..."

"Sir, your son is so adorable. He's such a handsome little guy, he looks good in everything..."

"Madam, this outfit looks much better on your son than it does on the model…"

……

Such praise came to Luo Yi incessantly.

Which mother wouldn't want praise for her child Lin Meng laughed, her mouth almost couldn't close. Children also like to hear compliments, the little guy is very generous and doesn't hesitate to take all these compliments. When trying on clothes, he wasn't shy at all, as if he was in his own dressing room, or as if this huge mall was his kingdom.

At such a young age, you possess an extraordinary demeanor that has captivated many beautiful elder sisters and kind aunts!

Finally, Rong Ling acted as a laborer, carrying heavy bags. The little boy held his beautiful mother's hand and skipped along with a lollipop in his mouth. By the way, this lollipop was given by the mall manager. When the big boss arrived, these managers naturally moved at the wind. They couldn't be too obvious, but it was necessary to come over and say hello. And being familiar with the big boss in front of him is not a bad thing, isn't it In the future, if the big boss is in a good mood and wants to promote someone, he might remember these people, right

So, when the little guy left, he had an extra bag in his hand. Inside, there were both food and toys.

"Youyou has grown up and should be as awesome as uncle!" the little guy declared boldly.

Mengmeng listened and was quite pleased.

But the little guy immediately added, "That way, you can eat wherever you go and play everywhere, hehe..."

The innocence of a child is on full display right now. After all, they're only four years old!

Lin Meng chuckled softly.

"What a loser!"

But the scolding didn't sound like a scolding, it sounded more like a father's doting on his son!

The little guy shrugged, but his smirk remained undiminished. There was a hint of mischievousness in his grin!

It was past noon, so it was time to think about where to eat. This matter was entirely left to Rong Ling. After all, he was the master of this land. Having him lead the way was the most suitable choice.

They went to "Suiyuan Home," a very renowned restaurant in Kyoto that Lin Meng had heard much about. This restaurant serves both land and water dishes, with quite a few specialties.

Rong Ling first ordered several large dishes, then left the rest to Lin Meng and Xiao Youyou. The mother and son huddled together, looking through the menu, muttering to each other, bumping their heads, two dark heads, poking and prodding like two groundhogs, it was adorable. Rong Ling watched attentively, even the waiter couldn't help but glance at this mother-son duo a few more times. The two would ask the waiter from time to time, or Rong Ling would explain on the side, and soon, they added several more dishes that they thought would be delicious.

The dishes arrived very quickly, it felt like only ten minutes. Lin Meng saw that there were a lot of people eating here, with rows of private cars parked at the entrance, making it look particularly scary. Now it was mealtime, and she thought that the three of them would definitely have to wait for a while.

It seems like the efficiency is quite high! I estimate the chef must be very skilled.

She gave him a high opinion in her heart, but she didn't know that such high efficiency was because of the man sitting beside her. Without him, no matter what, she wouldn't have been able to leave in half an hour!

While we were waiting for the main course, a man came in who clearly wasn't one of the waiters. He was wearing a suit and tie, looking very smart. Although he was a bit chubby, he looked very shrewd. As soon as he entered, he smiled, but it wasn't a humble or submissive smile, rather a friendly and confident one.

"General Rong, it's been quite a while since you've visited the little shop!"

Judging by his words, this person's status seems to be quite high.

Róng Líng nodded slightly, a hint of amusement playing on her lips as she responded with a playful tone. “So here you are!”

That person was immediately taken aback, simply because Rong Ling always had a cold face towards outsiders. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was like an iceberg. Outsiders rarely saw him smile. And such a teasing tone wasn't something ordinary people could enjoy!

It seems like Rong Zong is in a very good mood today!

The manager of the water town thought to himself, his mood lifted a few points. No matter what, this diamond-level man came here and was in a good mood, which was an honor for him.

"Mr. Rong, I just received a batch of French white wine, and I've been waiting for you to come try it. Seeing that you ordered Australian lobster on the menu, I thought I'd drop by and send you a bottle."

During their conversation, the manager tactfully nodded at both Lin Meng and Xiaoyou as a greeting.

This is a very normal acquaintance, and being overlooked is also common. I directly asked the manager to put down that bottle of white wine, and then pointed slightly at Lin Meng and Xiao Youyou.

"This is my godson, Lin Chengyou, and this is the mother of my son -- Lin Meng. If they come to your place in the future, please take good care of them!"

"Where, where..."

The manager broke out in a cold sweat. He couldn't possibly handle the "please take good care of him" request. Frankly, he needed these three people to take good care of him! It was obvious that Rong Ling's adopted son wasn't an ordinary person, someone they could handle as ordinary businessmen. So, his mother must be someone important!

Didn't you see that beautiful woman burning with elegance!

As the manager was skilled in public relations after all, otherwise he wouldn't have made "Suiyuan House" famous throughout Kyoto, so upon hearing this, he quickly took out a platinum card from his pocket and respectfully presented it to Lin Meng.

"Since Ms. Lin is General Rong's friend, she is also my friend, Wang Feiyun's friend. In the future, you'll be our honored guest. Please accept this card. Hehe, when you come here, I'll give you a discount."

Although this person appeared shrewd, their words were not smooth and instead had a bit of naiveté, which made people feel good about them. Lin Meng glanced at Rong Ling, then smiled and thanked him, lightly taking the bright white card with her delicate hand.

Mr. Wang quickly excused himself, not wanting to disturb the three people dining.

The little one stepped ahead of Lin Meng and voiced his confusion. "Uncle, when did I become your godson!"

Rong Ling extended his large palm and rubbed the little fellow's adorable head very hard.

"Little fool, you have to call me Godfather now, understand!"

The little guy blinked his big eyes, tilted his head, grinned mischievously, and called out boldly, "Daddy!"

Since you're already a father, it won't be long before people start calling you "Daddy"!

The little one is so happy, even happier than when they bought so many new clothes and shoes this morning!

Only Lin Meng still had a slight awkwardness, not seriously digesting this kind of change!

What does this man mean! Who just randomly acknowledges someone as their godfather! And he didn't even tell her!

She muttered to herself, wondering how this man had suddenly decided to adopt Youyou as his godson!

Could it be――

She suddenly thought, back at the shopping mall earlier, those salespeople treated Youyou as her son, and he didn't deny it. Could it be that after being mistaken for his son a few times, he developed this idea of having a son

Is this man so easily influenced!

Lin Meng shook her head, thinking it was unlikely!

And, this man so rashly said he would recognize him as his godson, did he even know Youyou's true identity!

Lin Meng thought about it again and felt that this man was so shrewd. Saying that he hadn't noticed Youyou's true identity at all seemed a bit unconvincing. Moreover, this man was also a cold-hearted person, and he probably wouldn't readily adopt a godson! This kind of thing wouldn't be something Rong Ling would do at all!

Then—

"Open your mouth!" A voice, laced with ice, echoed in her ear. She instinctively opened her mouth. Then a lump of white flesh tinged with pink slid into her mouth.

So delicious!

She smacked her lips and couldn't help but be moved by this deliciousness!

"What's this!" Her train of thought was interrupted by his question, and she began to inquire.

“Australian lobster, served with a special sauce!”

Saying that, he picked a piece of shrimp meat from the lobster's tail, rolled it in the sauce slightly, and delivered it to her lips under her gaze. She ate it naturally, her eyebrows curved into a crescent moon, a hint of alluring charm, and a look of great satisfaction.

"Delicious!" she said in a sweet voice, nodding with a smile.

"It's not fair!" a childish voice cried out. "Uncle...oh...no, Godfather is biased! You only give Mommy, and don't give it to Youyou. Uncle is biased!"

The little boy looked at Rong Ling with indignation, then raised his small chin, opened his tender little mouth wide, and let out a loud "Ah!" as if the dentist was examining his teeth.

Lin Meng looked at the little guy's small mouth, which was surprisingly big. She couldn't help but laugh. That tiny bottomless pit could probably fit a whole large oyster!

That mouthful of shrimp, tucked in between the sides of his head, went into the little one's mouth. He stopped complaining and, like his mommy, smiled with squinting eyes, chomped happily, and ate contentedly. When he was done, he kept calling out, milky and childishly.

"I want more!"

He opened his mouth wide, waiting for Rong Ling to feed him. He really treated himself like a baby!uddenly constricted. The scattered photos, on the table and on the floor, deeply shocked him!"You just take a look yourself, I'm about to be driven crazy by that Li Lanqiu. Hmph, maybe I should find a...
