Jian Yunzhou glanced at his expression and continued, “Rong Rong was picked up by her maternal grandfather, who brought her to Jackdom to raise her. She lived right next to our home. When she was young, she always seemed mature beyond her years, never spoke much, and rarely smiled. The first time I saw her, she was a little girl fighting several older kids in the village. Those children were all older than her, so logically, she should have been the one getting bullied. But unexpectedly, she beat them up badly. Covered in bruises, and with a cold expression, she refused to give in, clutching a piece of brick while standing her ground. Later, my father chased those kids away and brought her home. My father asked if she was hurt and why she didn’t ask her family to intervene since she was bullied. Do you know what she said?”
“How did she respond?” Ye Nanshen asked, his voice hoarse, and his fingers curled slightly.
Jian Yunzhou added, “She said, ‘It hurts, but I don’t have anyone to intervene for me. I have this brick, and that’s enough.’”
Jian Yunzhou paused, a hint of redness appearing around his eyes. His voice quivered as he continued, “Just that one sentence broke our hearts. From then on, we treated Rong Rong like a little sister. Later, when her maternal grandfather left, she was taken away. Afterward, we heard about her being pushed down by her stepsister, which resulted in a head injury that made her mentally disabled. When we tried to find her after hearing about this, we couldn’t locate any information about her. The Rong family only said that she had gone abroad, and from then on, she disappeared without a trace.”
So, what happened in Merica had been a turning point.
“Since the Rong family doesn’t care about her, and the Ye family might not accept her, it’s better to end this now and let everyone live more comfortably. 1 will bring her back to Jackdom. As long as I’m here, she’ll still be the princess of Jackdom.”
“Yunzhou, I’ve grown up. Being treated like a princess isn’t enough for me anymore,” Rong Qi retorted.
Jian Yunzhou furrowed his brow and said, “Girls should be pampered. Since the Rong family doesn’t treat you as their precious, in Jackdom, you can walk with your head held high.”
Rong Qi rolled her eyes and said, “Yunzhou, other girls might want to be ‘babies’ or ‘princesses,’ but I’m different. 1 want to be a master and someone strong. Otherwise, it doesn’t sit right with me.”
Jian Yunzhou was speechless.
Ye Nanshen also remained silent. He knew that Rong Qi had a way with words and that she wouldn’t stop easily. However, her playful words lightened the atmosphere considerably.
Jian Yunzhou and Ye Nanshen continued to chat for a while. But before leaving, Jian Yunzhou left two items on the table and said, “This is Rong Rong’s dowry and this…” He glanced at Rong Qi. “Is a gift for you two. Congratulations on your wedding.”
“Thank you, Yunzhou!” Rong Qi said with a smile.
Ye Nanshen also nodded and smiled. “Thank you.”
Rong Qi and Ye Nanshen escorted Jian Yunzhou downstairs before returning to the office.
Rong Qi held Jian Yunzhou’s gift in her hand and said, “This… seems to be a badge from the Inspectorate.”
“Yeah, it’s a green badge from the Inspectorate. In the future, if you need assistance, you can directly use the green badge to request personnel.”
Rong Qi’s eyes gleamed. She really had no words for Jian Yunzhou. Even though she hadn’t told them about her marriage, he had given them such a gift.
Ye Nanshen handed Rong Qi both gifts and said, “Keep them well. No one will dare to bully you anymore.”
Rong Qi nodded inexplicably, not knowing what they had discussed earlier that prompted Ye Nanshen to say such things.
Rong Qi accompanied Ye Nanshen for lunch, and then he drove her back to Capital University.
One continued with classes, and the other continued with work..
