Chapter 507: Every Word a Barbed Thing

After finishing her conversation with Rong Qingwen, Su Qingzhi hung up the phone, got out of the car, walked into the hospital, and took the elevator upstairs.

As I approached the ward, I saw Shen Yurong standing in the corridor, making a phone call with Sheng Hanzhang.

Su Qingzhi stopped and looked at her.

After finishing her call, Shen Yurong turned to look at Su Qingzhi, who was standing there, and asked gently, "Qingzhi, is something the matter?"

Su Qingzhi's expression was cold and stern as she said, "Madam Sheng, I'd like to talk to you about Xiao Shu."

Shen Yurong was slightly taken aback.

Remembering that Meimei had mentioned to her that she had two uncles, Shen Yurong didn't care about the family relationships in the Rong family or what brothers Rong Shu had. It wasn't until Meimei said that Su Qingzhi was her uncle that she was shocked and puzzled.

How did Su Qingzhi become Rong Shu's brother?

She originally wanted to contact Su Jinxi to ask what happened, but before she could even make the call, she received news that Sheng Tingchen had an accident.

Judging from Su Qingzhi's reaction now, it seems that what Meimei said was true.

"What do you want to say?"

Su Qingzhi's voice was low and cold, "Madam Sheng has really gone to great lengths to get rid of Xiao Shu. I wonder if you're doing this for Mei Mei, for Sheng Tingchen, or just for yourself?"

Upon hearing this...

Shen Yurong's expression changed drastically.

Su Qingzhi continued, "If Meimei knew that her mother was forcibly driven away by her grandmother, how do you expect Meimei to face you? Are you ignoring her emotional needs and forcing her to accept it?"

"What kind of daughter-in-law does Madam Sheng want to match with Sheng Tingchen this time? She listens to you completely and obeys you unconditionally. Is it not enough that Sheng Tingchen can't have her be too good to him?"

"..."

His words were calm, yet every word was barbed, stripping away all of Shen Yurong's dignity, making her face grow increasingly pale.

"Su Qingzhi, is this how you speak to your elders?"

Su Qingzhi remained unfazed. "Madam Sheng, how can you treat my sister like this? Are you a respected elder?"

Shen Yurong retorted, "Qingzhi, you're protecting her so much now, but how could you have been so heartless as to ignore her back then? Didn't you only treat Qingyue as your sister? Didn't you tacitly approve of Tingchen's relationship with her?"

Su Qingzhi said, "I will take responsibility for my own mistakes. Madam Sheng, you should think about how to explain to Sheng Tingchen and Meimei that she has been divorced. Also, I will repay the Rong family double what they owed your Sheng family. Madam Sheng, you don't need to look down on people with such a condescending attitude."

That's all.

Su Qingzhi walked towards the ward, just as the doctor finished examining Sheng Tingchen and came out of the ward.

Shen Yurong stood there, breathing heavily, her face extremely pale.

In the ward.

Sheng Tingchen, wearing a hospital gown, leaned against the hospital bed, making a phone call. Because he hadn't had time to groom himself, his hair had grown long, his stubble was particularly thick, and he looked darker and thinner.

He recovered quickly; his mental state while answering the phone was exactly the same as when he was working.

Su Qingzhi sat on a stool to the side and watched him.

I received several phone calls in succession.

The calls were from business partners and top clients of the company, all calling to check on him and make sure he was really alright.

"I'm definitely fine now. When I have time later, I'll host a banquet to express my apologies to everyone."

"..."

After the call is finished.

Sheng Tingchen put down his phone, a look of exhaustion on his face. He looked at Su Qingzhi and asked, "What's Zhao Zheng's situation now?"

Su Qingzhi replied, "They're probably busy preparing for your next retaliatory action."

Sheng Tingchen's lips curled into a cold smile.

"I never expected your reach to be so far. You're really lucky to be unharmed this time; God has been kind to you. But you're not alone anymore. Don't put yourself in danger again. Now is the best time to get out."

What Sheng Tingchen is doing now is probably something he started planning for years ago, so he can't stop now. Now he needs to make plans for his future.

Sheng Tingchen simply said, "I know."

The two chatted.

When David arrived at the ward, he brought a bouquet of flowers. "Tingchen, you're amazing! You're still alright after all this."

Sheng Tingchen looked at him, his handsome face expressionless. "What, did I disappoint you?"

David smiled and said, "How could I be disappointed? I'm still worried about your safety."

Sheng Tingchen: "Really? I'm truly touched."

David reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Don't be too touched."

The relationship between the two was primarily based on mutual benefit. If something were to happen to David that day, Sheng Tingchen would want everything he had. They both knew what kind of people the other was.

Therefore, they will not fall apart because of this; interests are often more stable than so-called feelings or relationships.

David withdrew his hand and sat down on the side of the hospital bed. "Look at you. The first thing you should do now is to take good care of yourself. Don't let Evelynn fall for someone else the moment she sees you."

Su Qingzhi looked at Sheng Tingchen, her expression still showing little emotional fluctuation. "In your opinion, is she so easily swayed by others?"

"After all, Evelynn is surrounded by handsome men, so you'd better live well, or Evelynn will belong to someone else."

"David, shouldn't you have a serious talk with Sheng Tingchen about what happened with those 80 million US dollars from Dong Sheng?" Su Qingzhi said.

David looked at Su Qingzhi, smiled, and said, "It's time for a serious talk."

"..."

Early the next morning.

Meimei was escorted off the plane and arrived at the hospital.

"dad."

Upon hearing his daughter's voice, Sheng Tingchen's expression softened instantly, and he raised his hand to signal the doctor to pause.

He got out of the hospital bed.

Meimei ran in from outside the door, and Shen Yurong protected her, saying, "Meimei, slow down."

Sheng Tingchen strode forward, bent down and picked up Meimei, stroking her head with his large hand, his deep eyes revealing lingering fear.

Meimei hugged her father's neck tightly with both hands, "Daddy, Meimei misses you so much. Meimei won't be separated from Daddy for so long in the future."

Sheng Tingchen held Meimei in his arms and said, "Okay, from now on, Daddy will stay with Meimei."

Meimei clung to her father and wouldn't let go.

"Meimei, let the doctor examine Dad first," Shen Yurong said.

Meimei looked up at her father and asked, "Daddy, where does it hurt?"

Sheng Tingchen said, "Dad is fine, he can be discharged tomorrow."

Meimei was relieved.

The doctor examined Sheng Tingchen, and Meimei stood by his side, remarking, "Daddy's all tanned."

Sheng Tingchen smiled and asked, "Does Meimei dislike her father?"

"Meimei will never dislike her dad. He's dark-skinned but handsome, and Mom will definitely not dislike him either."

Sheng Tingchen asked, "Isn't Mom with Meimei?"

Meimei said, "Mom is waiting for Dad to come home. Dad needs to get better soon."

"..."

Shen Yurong listened to the conversation between the father and daughter, observing Sheng Tingchen's reaction.
