Chapter 181: 181: Agreed to Pick Up the Little One

Rong Yan exhaled and resignedly closed her mouth. Alright, she wasn’t exactly a pushover to begin with; she had only wanted to avoid trouble because she feared implicating him. Since he had put it that way, she felt it was awkward to continue.

After they finished their spicy and sour noodles, they returned to Dihor Garden.

Every light in the house was off. Rong Yan turned on the lights, dropped her bag, and was so exhausted that she wished she could just sprawl out on the bed and not move at all. Fighting the fatigue, she mustered the strength to take a bath, brush her teeth, and wash up; afterwards, she was completely out of energy. Not wanting to push herself further, she pulled back the covers and climbed into bed.

As her stiff and weary back hit the soft mattress, Rong Yan let out a contented sigh. Her whole body relaxed… “Ding ding—”

Just then, her phone vibrated twice.

She reached out to grab the phone that was by her pillow.

It was a video call request from Baby Rong.

Rong Yan cheerfully accepted the call, and at first, the phone screen was pitch-black. Then, a cute little face emerged from the other end.

“Hello, Duidui-” Her eyes softened warmly and, lowering her voice, she spoke to the person on the other end, “Why aren’t you asleep yet? Were you good today while you were with grandma?”

Li Duidui hadn’t seen her all day and blinked his wet, large eyes upon suddenly seeing the Rong Yan he missed. With a milky voice, he hummed an affirmative,

“Yes.”

He paused and then added, “Today, I went shopping with Grandma, bought some clothes, and also bought an ice cream for Grandma.”

He had bought it with his own pocket money, so he was very good!

Getting his point, Rong Yan’s lips curled into a smile, and she immediately praised him, “Mommy’s little darling is so good- I’ve only been away a day, and I miss my baby so much. What should I do?”

The little boy in the video, who had been keeping a straight face, now had his eyes light up and, after a few seconds of hesitation, asked, “Then, Mom, will you come to pick me up tomorrow?”

This…” Rong Yan was taken aback.

To pick him up would mean going to Mrs. Li’s house, which also meant that she would have to face her nominal mother-in-law.

Seeing her hesitate, the little boy’s eyes dimmed, “Never mind then. If you’re busy, you don’t have to come. I’ll ask the driver to take me back.”

Rong Yan couldn’t bear to see his disappointed look and, after thinking it over, said, “Would it be okay if I came over in the afternoon?”

Li Duidui, who had initially thought she couldn’t make it, felt surprisingly excited upon hearing she would come and hurriedly agreed, “Okay! I’ll wait for Mommy!”

Rong Yan smiled seeing his laughter and gently reminded him with a tender gaze, “Then you have to remember to tell Grandma I’m coming to pick you up, so she’s aware.”

“Mmm.” His head bobbed like a pecking chick.

Rong Yan told him another bedtime story and coaxed him into taking a bath before ending the video call. She hadn’t even put the phone down when a message from Estelle came through.

[Tomorrow morning at 9:30, I’ll take you to the AQ platform to sync up on that talent show I mentioned before. They’re starting to record. There’s a press

conference as well. And then, your new song’s promotion will be scheduled,

which will also build momentum for you. Your current image may be a mix of

fame and infamy, but at least you’ve got the heat. Nick and I have discussed it,

and we both agree that we need to push you while you’re still trending. You

may have to walk the path of controversy for a while, so be mentally prepared.]

The path of controversy basically meant being criticized…

Having previously openly clashed with Shi Mufeng and Rong Weiwei, Rong Weiwei’s fans would definitely seize every opportunity to malign her. The attitude Rong Weiwei showed in stopping her also indicated that she wouldn’t miss any chance to badmouth her. So, if she wanted to progress in the entertainment industry, facing criticism was an inevitable path!

Rong Yan lowered her eyes, her gaze steady and resolute as she replied to Estelle, [OK.]

One word to show her attitude!
