53 -53 Deliberately Neglecting Her
“What, missing me?
I’ve missed you too.
Wait for me, I’ll be right there.”
When a man like Rong Shaoze spoke such tender words, it was undoubtedly a lethal temptation.
He not only had a handsome face but also wealth and status beyond the reach of others.
Being a man who shone in every aspect, if he were gentle with a woman, that woman was surely on the brink of falling completely for him.
Lin Xinlan lowered her eyes, feeling sad for his new love.
To fall in love with such a man was to be destined for a lifetime of heartache.
After hanging up the phone, the man deliberately kissed her on the face and said with a smile, “I’m going out tonight and won’t be coming back.”
Lin Xinlan looked at him indifferently, her tone as natural as ever, “Where you’re going is no concern of mine.”
Indeed, he had no need to tell her.
Yet he couldn’t help saying it.
Rong Shaoze looked at her indifferent expression, feeling inexplicably annoyed.
He got up with a cold face, not sparing her another glance, and left.
As if deliberately giving her the cold shoulder, Rong Shaoze rarely came back for several consecutive days.
Even on occasions when he did return during the day, it was only to change his clothes and then he would leave again.
Lin Xinlan lived a leisurely and carefree life, but she did not want to continue living this way.
What she yearned for was the busy, fulfilling, and free life she once had.
The news of Rong Shaoze having a new flame quickly reached the media.
They reported extensively, following and waiting on stakeouts, and anytime Rong Shaoze went out, he would be secretly photographed.
Papers for several days in a row featured photos of him with a girl going in and out of various places.
The servants worried that Lin Xinlan would become jealous and lose her temper, little did they know that her noon pastime each day was to read the gossip news about Rong Shaoze, which she actually enjoyed quite much.
When she reached the exciting parts, she couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Today’s paper suggested that Rong Shaoze might be impotent because he took a girl to a hotel three times, and twice they came out in less than twenty minutes.
Lin Xinlan couldn’t help it and let out a snort of laughter upon reading this.
While she was laughing heartily, the newspaper was suddenly snatched away.
Lin Xinlan looked up in surprise and saw Rong Shaoze reading the very article she had been enjoying.
The man’s face went instantly livid.
He crumpled the newspaper into a ball, threw it on the ground, and said angrily, “I’m going to shut down that newspaper; they can’t just write whatever they want!”
Lin Xinlan kept her gaze low, eyes on the nose and the nose on the heart, offering no opinion.
Her chin was suddenly seized and her head lifted.
Rong Shaoze glared at her and asked, “You think I’m impotent too?”
Lin Xinlan shook her head instinctively then blushed abruptly as if she had thought of something.
She awkwardly shifted her gaze away.
Rong Shaoze smiled ambiguously, “Right, how would I perform, if not like you know best.
What do you say, should we book a hotel room a few times, maybe stay a little longer to clear the facts?”
Lin Xinlan replied uncomfortably, “If you’re bothered by what the outside world reports, then you should spend more time in the hotel with that girl.”
Rong Shaoze snorted coldly, let go of her chin, and said nothing as he went upstairs.
Those two times at the hotel, he was not interested in doing anything each time.
He was fed up with that girl anyway, unable to touch her even by mustering all his patience.
So today, he had impatiently paid her off with money.
But he did not expect the media to report it this way; had he known, he would have stayed just sitting and drinking tea in the hotel room, if only to drag out the time before leaving.
But how dare they write about him like that; they really didn’t want to keep their jobs anymore!
Anyway, having provoked him, that newspaper was definitely doomed to shut down.
Rong Shaoze went up to take a shower, and when he came out wrapped in a bath towel, he heard the phone ringing.
He looked at the caller ID, his expression somewhat stern.
Answering the call, for once, his tone was uncommonly respectful.
