Chapter 1125: Chapter 1121: Rong Sheng’s Daughter, Rong Xi
Xiao Qingyu smiled calmly, his scholarly elegance laced with a touching hint of humor, “The day you accepted the pinwheel is also the day we are destined to meet again, no need to rush.”
He would wait patiently.
Rong Sheng, this woman whose medical skills were extraordinary and whose beauty was ethereal, he was determined to win her affection and take her as his wife, to not live this life in vain.
In the clinic, Rong Sheng had finished a day of consultations and rubbed her forehead wearily.
By her side, the little girl who could now walk steadily came up with a towel, stood on tiptoes, and called out sweetly, “Mommy, wipe.”
Turning around to look at her, Rong Sheng’s face, cool as a fairy’s, blossomed into a gentle smile.
She bent down cooperatively to let the towel in the child’s hand touch her face.
Little Rong Xi finished wiping her face and then quietly smiled at Rong Sheng, “Mommy, so beautiful! So beautiful!”
She was already able to speak some words clearly, taught very well by Rong Sheng, yet her way of speaking naturally carried a hint of flirtatiousness, coupled with the affection in her eyes and brows, she was strikingly similar to that man.
.comEvery time Rong Sheng saw her like that, she would frown.
Beneath the frown, there was mostly helplessness.
She had already escaped his control and started a life of her own.
Why then did the shadow still linger?
“Mommy~~~”
Little Rong Xi was calling her softly again, her voice milky sweet, but her facial features were becoming more and more like Chu Yifeng’s.
Rong Sheng held her hand and whispered, “Mommy is done working; I’ll take you home to sleep.”
“Hug,” Little Rong Xi obediently opened her arms.
But Rong Sheng didn’t comply, just held her little hand and slowly walked towards the carriage.
Little Rong Xi climbed into the carriage and leaned against Rong Sheng, looking at her mother’s cool and aloof face, her little mouth turning down unhappily.
Every time she asked Mommy for a hug, Mommy would reject her.
People around her said her mommy was strange because, despite it being customary to call her ‘Mummy,’ she called her ‘Mommy.’
She clearly had a daddy, but mommy said she was born alone, without a daddy.
Clearly…
At such a young age, Little Rong Xi shouldn’t have understood anything, but she felt, alas… her intelligence and wisdom made her bear pressures a child shouldn’t have to bear.
Rong Sheng only worked twenty days a month at the clinic; the remaining ten days were either spent taking Little Rong Xi to travel around or taking her to the mountains to gather medicinal herbs and researching ancient medical theories, striving to create more and more convenient medicines.
Today was the twentieth day, and after today’s consultations, she would not be in the clinic tomorrow, so it had been exceptionally busy.
Since she had been seeing patients from morning until noon, without even time for lunch, Rong Sheng had to ask the clinic staff to prepare some food for Little Rong Xi, who sat beside her in a high chair and ate on her own.
Luckily, Little Rong Xi was smart and well-behaved. Not even two years old, she could already eat by herself, and she was tidy, not making a mess everywhere.
When Yue Lian and Zi Wei entered Rong Sheng’s treatment room, they were immediately taken by Little Rong Xi’s presence.
Yue Lian, watching Little Rong Xi with envy, said to Zi Wei, “Hubby, look at the doctor’s daughter, so adorable and well-behaved—she can eat by herself, and she’s so refined.”
The child looks so young yet her movements are extremely polished and graceful. There’s a noble air about her that ordinary people lack.
And looking at her features, they’re exquisitely delicate, far more lively than any cherubic child from a painter’s brush.
She’s truly a vision from the heavens.
