Rong Feiyu gulped nervously and asked, “Dad, Mom, what’s going on? You don’t seem too happy.”

Wang Qing replied, “What else could it be? Feiyu, don’t you know? Someone from Jackdom is coming! It must be those penniless relatives of the Chu family coming to get close to your father. They called your father and said they wanted to visit. Hmph, they make it sound like a friendly visit, but who knows what they really want!”

Wang Qing’s tone was sharp and sarcastic. She looked at Rong Tianshi and added, “But no matter what they’re here for, they won’t be taking anything from our house. You’ve already started a new family, so why should you care about the Chu family’s affairs? Raising Rong Qi has been difficult enough. What more do they want?”

Rong Tianshi remained silent, and even he, for that matter, had no contact with the people from Jackdom. The only times they had any contact were during Rong Qi’s wedding to Chu Jie and when he had gone to Jackdom to pick up Rong Qi. He didn’t have a good impression of the people from Jackdom either.

However, Rong Feiyu looked puzzled and asked, “But Mom, isn’t the Chu family practically empty now, except for Rong Qi’s mother?”

Rong Tianshi explained, “It’s not the Chu family who’s coming; it’s their former neighbors. They heard that Rong Qi is also in the capital, so they called to pay a visit.”

Rong Tianshi’s voice carried a hint of annoyance, and he waved his hand dismissively. He said, “Don’t just blame me; you’re at the hospital every day taking care of your younger brother. I’ve been taking care of him for so many years, and I’ve done enough. In the future, focus more on Feiyu. She’s in a critical period and can’t afford to make any mistakes. As for the Chu family’s neighbors, they’re insignificant people. We don’t need to worry too much. When the time comes, we can just send them away. But Feiyu…”

Rong Tianshi paused and finally looked at Rong Feiyu with hope in his eyes. He asked, “How is it? Did you get into the Academic and Research Society?”

Originally, Wang Qing wore a displeased expression, but upon hearing the latter part of Rong Tianshi’s speech, she couldn’t help but smile faintly. She said, “What’s more to say? Our Feiyu has already become a representative of the new generation. Naturally, she smoothly entered! In the future, my daughter must marry into a good family, and then I can enjoy a comfortable life.”

“That’s right,” Rong Tianshi chimed in with a smile.

However, they failed to notice that the more they spoke, the redder Rong Feiyu’s face became. She hesitated for a long time but decided to speak up.

However, just at that moment, the butler rushed in to report, “Master, Madam, there’s a man outside looking for you. He says he’s here to see you.”

“Who is it? What does he want with me?” Rong Tianshi asked as he was still lost in his daydreams and didn’t even raise his head.

“That man said he used to be the neighbor of Miss Rong Qi in Jackdom and has some business to discuss with you.”

“Neighbour from Jackdom? So quick? Didn’t they say they would come in a few days?” Rong Tianshi’s tone was impatient.

Wang Qing, with an air of superiority, added, “Typical of someone from the countryside—no manners at all. They didn’t even make an appointment and just showed up uninvited. Such a bother! They have no ability of their own, yet they want to attach themselves to the people from the neighborhood. These people are truly annoying. Go tell that man that Mr. Rong isn’t here and ask him to leave.”

The butler nodded and hurriedly left. However, he couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled. Judging by the man’s attire and demeanor, he didn’t look like someone who was from the countryside that Rong Tianshi and Wang Qing were describing.

But these matters weren’t within the purview of a butler. His job was to convey messages..
