Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 732 - 19: Little Gege, You’re Blushing
Rong Rui nodded.
Yige smiled, patted his little head, got up to get a bathrobe from the wardrobe, and was about to head to the bathroom when the phone rang in perfect timing.
Yige paused for a moment and had to put down the bathrobe to answer the call.
She rummaged through her bag to take out the phone and glanced at the caller ID, it was an overseas call.
Yige thought for a moment and decided to answer it.
"Hello."
"Yige..."
A trembling, helpless voice came through the phone, hoarse.
Tang Yige frowned, "Mom?"
"Yige, Yige, where are you?" Zhou Xueran choked up as she spoke.
"Mom, what’s wrong with you?" Tang Yige asked, walking towards the balcony.
Rong Rui lay on the bed, his big, bright eyes staring at Tang Yige, who was taking the call on the balcony, his little mouth slightly pursed.
"Mom’s fine. But something happened to your dad." Zhou Xueran started to cry.
"...My dad?" Tang Yige was surprised, "What happened to my dad?"
"Wuu wuu... your dad got caught by the police for taking drugs, and now he’s stuck in the police station and can’t get out." Zhou Xueran’s voice was urgent, and she was crying, making Tang Yige a bit anxious.
"My dad is doing drugs?"
Indeed, Tang Yige had no knowledge of this.
Ever since five years ago, when Tang Yuwen drove her out of the Tang Family in such a manner, whether it was evasion or not, she always avoided knowing anything about family matters.
"Right now, that detail doesn’t matter. If it were just drug use, at least he could be forced into rehab and could get out. But now, the news is everywhere that he not only used drugs but also hid drugs! And the amount reported is enough to keep your dad in prison for life!" Zhou Xueran explained.
Drug use, drug hiding...
Tang Yige clenched her hand, "Mom, clarify this, did dad really take drugs? Did he hide drugs?"
"Yige, I’ve said that’s not important now. The important thing is to think of a way to get your dad out!" Zhou Xueran shouted anxiously.
"..." Tang Yige just felt her brain fill with blood, closed her eyes, and tried hard to suppress the rush of air in her chest, speaking in a hoarse voice, "Mom, if what’s reported in the news is true, then these are the reasons for my dad’s imprisonment, how can it not be important? Are you confused!? My dad used drugs, do you know why you didn’t stop him, do you think that’s something good?"
"If I could stop him, how could I not? But did your dad ever listen to me? He said he’d kick you out back then, and he did, did I manage to stop him? Yige, listen to your mom, don’t worry about these things now. Your dad is old, he can’t handle a place like prison." Zhou Xueran’s voice softened again at the end, pleading.
Tang Yige reached out to grip the balcony railing, took a deep breath, steadying her voice as she said, "Where’s Tang Ruan?"
"...Ruan, Ruan Ruan is beside me right now." Zhou Xueran stammered as she spoke.
Tang Yige’s face turned stern, "Let her take the phone."
"Yige..."
"Mom, give the phone to her."
"...Okay, okay." Zhou Xueran said, then handed the phone to Tang Ruan, timidly saying, "Ruan Ruan, your sister wants to talk to you."
Yige didn’t hear Tang Ruan make a sound.
About half a minute later, shallow breathing was heard through the phone.
Tang Yige squinted, "What’s going on?"
"Didn’t mom already tell you? It’s just like that. Dad’s at the police station now." Tang Ruan’s voice was very weak, as if she were sick and feeble.
"I don’t believe that’s a coincidence! He just happened to be caught by the police while taking drugs?" Tang Yige said coldly, "Moreover, I believe he used drugs, but with his guts, he would never dare to hide drugs, so, someone must be behind this..."
"You’re right." Tang Ruan interrupted before Yige could finish.
Tang Yige’s eyes narrowed tightly, "Who is it?"
Tang Ruan fell silent again.
"Tang Ruan, do you realize what time it is..."
"You tell me, who else in all of Z City would dare to set up and frame my dad? I’m still Rong Sinan’s wife, and you’ve always been on good terms with Rong Mochen and the others. Whoever it is, they must have eaten a bear’s heart and leopard’s gall, or else who would dare?" Tang Ruan sneered.
Hearing her words, Tang Yige pondered for a moment and understood.
Her fingers holding the phone suddenly tightened, her voice turning cold, "What did you do this time?"
"Is it still necessary to investigate these things now? Dad is in the police station right now, I pleaded with... my mother-in-law, but she wouldn’t help. Grandpa also refuses to see me. Sinan is nowhere to be found, I can’t contact him. If Sinan were in Z City, I wouldn’t make such an effort to contact you. Sinan, he would definitely help me." Tang Ruan’s voice was somewhat chaotic, revealing a weakness from insufficient strength.
Yige thought of the voice she heard at the airport at noon.
After a long silence, Yige squinted her eyes tightly, calming herself as she said, "So what now? Do you want me to ask Mochen to spare our family?"
"You should please ask Mochen, you’re on such good terms with him, ask him, he surely..."
"Ha, I’m sorry, I don’t have such a big face!"
With that, Yige abruptly hung up the call!
Yige looked at the dimmed phone screen, the burning sensation in her eyes forcing itself to her eye sockets, only to be forcibly held back.
And less than two minutes after she hung up, the phone rang once more.
