Chapter 376 I Won't Stop You
"Sister Yan!" Rong Shu called out.
Song Yan snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Rong Shu, asking, "Why is your Shu with Su Qingzhi?"
Rong Shu said, "I originally came to eat alone, but it just so happened that we ran into each other, and he insisted on treating me."
Song Yan was aware of Su Qingzhi's collaboration with Rong En, of course. "I wonder what's wrong with Su Qingzhi?"
Logically speaking...
The two sides are currently in a competitive relationship, not to mention that Su Qingzhi and Sheng Tingchen have a close relationship.
Rong Shu said, "There must be some reason behind this. Since it's the professor's decision, it must be correct."
Song Yan hummed in agreement and didn't say anything more about Su Qingzhi.
Rong Shu looked at her, wanting to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.
Su Qingzhi is still unmarried, and there have been no rumors or gossip about him. He seems to have always been single. At least from the perspective of his private life, he is a good man. It would be hard for anyone to let go of such an excellent ex-fiancé.
The two did not discuss anything about Su Qingzhi.
After having dinner with Song Yan, Rong Shu left the restaurant.
It's still early.
The two went to a nearby shopping mall for a stroll; it had been a long time since they had properly gone shopping.
Rong Shu bought a new LV crossbody bag and a small white backpack, which are perfect for her to carry.
Around that time.
Rong Shu and Song Yan said goodbye and left.
Rong Shu drove back to Repulse Bay, arriving at 9 p.m.
We arrived at the living room.
The LCD screen in the living room was playing international news, and the man, dressed in casual clothes, was sitting on the sofa watching TV.
Orissa walked up to the man with a tray, placed the bowl on the tray in front of him with elegant posture, and when her gaze fell on him, her eyes revealed undisguised admiration.
"Mr. Sheng."
Sheng Tingchen reached out and took it.
Orisa straightened up and saw Rong Shu, then walked over with a smile and greeted her, "Evelynn, you're back. You've been working so late tonight, would you like something to eat?"
Rong Shu said, "No need, I'm not hungry. Shall we go to sleep?"
"They're already asleep," Orissa said.
Rong Shu didn't ask any more questions and carried her things upstairs.
Orissa stood still and looked back at Sheng Tingchen sitting on the sofa.
She had heard from David that Mr. Sheng and his wife had a bad relationship, so his wife would definitely accept her staying with Mr. Sheng.
However, it seems that Evelynn and Mr. Sheng are indeed very cold towards each other. When they go home, they don't even talk to each other or greet each other.
The man sitting on the sofa glanced at the woman's retreating figure as she went upstairs, then quickly looked away.
Orissa walked up to him and asked, "Mr. Sheng, do you really have no feelings for Evelynn?"
Sheng Tingchen looked up at her.
Orissa met the man's deep black eyes, her heart tightened for no reason, and she quickly lowered her eyes.
The man handed her the bowl, which Orisa quickly took. He said, "Orisa, don't ask if you shouldn't."
Orissa quickly said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Sheng, I was wrong."
She crossed the line.
Sheng Tingchen got up and went upstairs.
After visiting Meimei, Rong Shu returned to her guest room.
She had just put down what she was holding and sat down on the bed when the door opened. Rong Shu was startled and looked up to see the man who entered. Sheng Tingchen stopped a step away from her, his hands in his pockets, his handsome face calm. He looked down at her and asked directly, "Preparing to go to City C?" His voice didn't reveal much emotion, but it gave people a sense of oppressive judgment.
Rong Shu confronted the man, knowing full well that he knew, and turned her gaze away, saying calmly, "I'm preparing to go."
Sheng Tingchen stared at her.
After a few seconds of silence, the atmosphere in the room seemed to drop, and Rong Shu did not look at him.
"So you're going to settle down there?" The man's voice was calm and even, yet it carried an invisible pressure that made it hard to breathe.
Rong Shu clenched her fingers involuntarily.
Her going to City C does indeed mean that she will stay in City C for a long time. As for settling down in City C, she hasn't thought it through. Everything happened too suddenly, and she can't really resign and leave Rong En to please others.
However, hearing the man's accusatory tone, a surge of anger welled up inside her for no reason, and she replied coldly, "It's none of your business."
"Fine, Rong Shu." The man's voice turned even colder. "It seems you have something you didn't intend to discuss with me."
Rong Shu stared at him, defiantly retorting, "What's the point of discussing this with you? Your talk of respecting me is nothing but empty words of mockery."
talking.
She suddenly let out a cold laugh.
"You condone everything that happened, condone Lu Xue's actions, just to make me resign from Rong En. In your eyes, I am just a tool that you can control at will. But Sheng Tingchen, you can't do whatever you want."
The words fell.
The surrounding air seemed to drop several degrees in an instant.
The man's dark eyes narrowed slightly, their expression deep and silent.
Rong Shu finished speaking in one breath, but her emotions were not under control for a moment, and her breathing became unsteady. She turned to look at the window and tried to calm herself down.
A brief silence.
You could hear a pin drop; the atmosphere in the entire space was so tense it felt like a broken string.
"Since you're so eager to leave, I won't stop you, but before that, you'd better get Mimi to accept Orissa."
Upon hearing this...
Rong Shu's pupils suddenly dilated, and she turned to stare at Sheng Tingchen.
The man turned and left the room indifferently.
Until the door was closed.
Rong Shu's body stiffened and she remained motionless, her face gradually turning pale and bloodless.
Sheng Tingchen returned to Meimei's room, lifted the blanket, and carefully picked her up and put her back in the master bedroom. Meimei was sleeping soundly, and when she lay on the big bed, she lazily turned over and continued to sleep.
Sheng Tingchen sat on the edge of the bed, his eyes quietly watching his daughter's peaceful sleeping face.
That night.
Rong Shu spent a sleepless night.
Late at night, she went to Meimei's room. When she turned on the light, she found that Meimei was not there. Without a doubt, Sheng Tingchen had taken her back to the master bedroom.
Rong Shu sat in Mei Mei's room for a while before returning to her guest room.
When I woke up the next day.
Feeling dizzy and lightheaded, Rong Shu looked at herself in the mirror; her eyes were terribly swollen.
She applied a simple makeup look to improve her complexion.
Wait until we go downstairs.
I heard a beautiful, melodious laugh coming from the living room.
I looked up.
Then they saw Orissa sitting on the sofa braiding Meimei's hair, while Meimei played with a doll that Orissa had made.
Sheng Tingchen sat quietly on a single sofa, reading the newspaper.
Rong Shu paused, her fingers gripping the armrest tightening uncontrollably.
Meimei saw her mother immediately and called out, "Mom!"
Rong Shu snapped out of her thoughts and went downstairs.
Meimei ran up to Rong Shu and hugged her mother's waist. "Good morning, Mom. I didn't see you yesterday."
Rong Shu stroked Mei Mei's little head and said softly, "I'm sorry, Mommy came home late yesterday."
