"Beep, beep, beep—"
The call was answered after three rings.
Rong Jingyang's tone was displeased as he accused, "Du Ruoxin, what is this you've posted online?"
Divorce?
She must be out of her mind!
Rong Jingyang still couldn't fathom why Du Ruoxin had suddenly posted a video announcing their divorce.
However, from the other end of the line, a cold and sinister voice emerged:
"Rong Jingyang, what doesn't belong to you will eventually be returned."
"Xin'er is mine. Remember that."
With that, Christiano hung up the phone, turned off his mobile, and destroyed the chip.
Rong Jingyang: "!!!!!!"
Christiano?
How did he have Du Ruoxin's phone?
What had he done to Du Ruoxin?
But before he could ponder further, his phone rang.
"Brother, what does sister-in-law mean by posting that video?"
"Why does sister-in-law want to divorce you?"
"What did you do to sister-in-law?"
...
"Brother, judging by sister-in-law's attitude, she's determined to divorce you."
"Haven't you resolved your issues yet?"
"Right, what were your issues again?"
"Weren't you always the model couple of the entire family?"
"I thought you were inseparable, like conjoined twins. How did you end up announcing a divorce online?"
...
"Brother, sister-in-law's decision to divorce you is completely non-negotiable."
"Didn't you two seem fine on the Dragon Boat Festival?"
"What unforgivable thing have you done recently to upset sister-in-law?"
...
"Rong Jingyang, I'm still on bed rest to protect the pregnancy!"
"Can you stop being such an idiot? Can you stop being so insensitive?"
"If I get angry and miscarry, what are you going to pay the Song family with!"
"My sister-in-law is so wonderful, why aren't you hurrying to win her back!"
"Ouch—"
...
"Rong Jingyang, where are you?"
"Come back here immediately!"
"What did you do to Ruoxin?!"
...
Rong Jingyang stood there, stunned. The few calls he received all had the same message, uniformly accusing him of failing Du Ruoxin.
It was as if he had committed heinous, unforgivable acts, enraging Du Ruoxin into officially announcing their divorce online.
It felt like he had become the target of public scorn, a scumbag condemned by the entire internet.
Rong Jingyang: "————"
He was the one being divorced.
He was also completely bewildered and confused, alright?
Rong Jingyang had a headache.
A real headache.
His nerves were pulling at his muscles, causing him pain and making him forget to think.
He simply couldn't understand...
Why would Du Ruoxin so resolutely announce their divorce?
Was it because she wanted Ai Wei to disappear, and he hadn't followed her wishes, instead promising Ai Wei a bright future, thus she had lost all hope?
*%￥#@!
What was this nonsense!
"Hiss—"
Rong Jingyang's scalp felt like it was being pulled.
Just then, an explosive voice from the other end of the line rang out again, giving him no chance to breathe.
"Rong Jingyang!"
"Speak!"
"Are you listening?"
Rong Jingyang immediately snapped back to attention, "Mom, I'm listening."
Hearing her son's voice, tinged with a mix of weariness and tribulation, Feng Linwan's heart ached.
A mother knows her son best.
Although Feng Linwan was shocked by Du Ruoxin's actions, she also knew that her son wouldn't do anything truly heinous.
He—
Simply wasn't good at expressing himself in matters of love, not good at sweet talk.
He had been like this since childhood.
Rong Jingyang was more composed than most adults.
"Sigh."
Feng Linwan sighed heavily, but she did offer a fair observation, "Did Ruoxin misunderstand something about you?"
"What is the conflict between you two?"
"Do you want Mom to help mediate?"
Rong Jingyang shook his head, "No need, I'll handle it."
