Chapter 580: Chapter 580: The Reason for Rong Yan
She just took a cab to the border of Dark Night.
Gu Linxi’s call came right after, urgently prompting her to pick up as if it were a matter of life and death.
Rong Yan found a quiet corner and connected the call.
“Hello.”
No sooner had she spoken than Gu Linxi’s angry voice came through, “I knew asking me to check the phone IP address couldn’t be for nothing. I just hacked the firewall at the telecom headquarters and listened in on that call. You’re going to Dark Night to rescue someone? Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey? Why are you meddling in the Rong Family’s affairs? They can handle it themselves!”
Kicked in the head by a donkey… Oh, what a description. Rong Yan leaned against the wall, glanced at the entrance to Dark Night, and tucked herself into the shadows. In fact, she had wondered on her way over if she had been kicked in the head by a donkey, feeling an itching boredom to actually go to Dark Night, but…
“Rong Mu is only eight years old.”
“So what?”
“By blood, he’s my younger brother.”
Gu Linxi couldn’t understand, “But you’ve never even met him, let alone developed any feelings for him. Besides, how the Rong Family treats you normally, why should you muddle in now, during their time of crisis?”
Rong Yan heard the concern in her words, smiled wryly, and admitted casually, “I have no feelings for Rong Mu and I’ve never met him. So, I won’t put myself in danger for him. I’m just going to Dark Night to look around, and if I see him, I’ll try to rescue him, of course, provided that I can ensure my own safety. If I don’t see him, then if something really does happen in the future, at least I won’t always feel uncomfortable deep down.”
The Rong Family is the Rong Family, Rong Mu is Rong Mu.
Rong Mu is a life, and only eight years old at that.
“I’m not so heartless as to feel gleeful if an eight-year-old boy with whom I share a blood relation has an accident.”
Rong Mu and she had never met, but in principle, they were related by blood. Those disgusting things Weiwei did had nothing to do with Rong Mu.
What’s most important is, Rong Nanfeng’s many chilling words were undeniable to her, but one point was irrefutable—that the Rong Family had raised her for over a decade and given her sustenance!
Even if reluctant, she indeed owed Rong Nanfeng more than ten years of gratitude for raising her.
“Besides, I still owe the Rong Family something. If I’m lucky and I see Rong Mu, I’ll try to pay back what I owe to the Rong Family, to Rong Nanfeng all at once.”
If she doesn’t encounter him, then it will only be a regretful case of Rong Mu having bad luck…
As a friend of many years, Gu Linxi understood her, “I get your point. But Dark Night is too unsafe, it’s filled with all sorts of bad elements. I can’t rest easy with you going in alone. Wait for me, I’m coming over.”
Rong Yan immediately stopped her, “Don’t come. Let me see if there’s anyone in there first.”
Rong Yan spoke with mature steadiness, “If I don’t see Rong Mu, your coming would be for nothing. Don’t worry, Sister Xixi, I haven’t spent five years abroad for nothing. I’ve prepared for unexpected situations.”
She wasn’t foolish enough to repay Rong Nanfeng with her life; she was just being true to her principles, peeking inside to make sure all was safe.
She wouldn’t be so stupid as to risk herself. If something happened to her, her Little Baby would be left all alone at home; her Little Duidui was only five years old, and she couldn’t bear that thought.
