Chapter 370 What kind of rift developed between them?
Sheng Tingchen stood up and strode over to Rong Shu. His gaze bypassed Jiang Huaixu and landed on her. He said, "Let's go back."
As they were talking.
He reached out and naturally took the woman's hand, holding it firmly in his large palm. Then, glancing at Jiang Huaixu, he said, "Mr. Jiang, we'll be leaving now."
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze when their eyes met.
Sheng Tingchen led Rong Shu out of the hall and into the car.
The car slowly drove away and soon merged into the main road.
Sheng Tingchen gripped the steering wheel, driving with his eyes fixed on the road ahead, and asked, "What are your plans?"
Rong Shu replied, "I have no plans to leave."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Tingchen's handsome face remained expressionless, and his calm tone revealed no emotion as he said, "Since you want to stay, then stay."
Hearing the man's tone, Rong Shu remained silent and did not respond. She had no intention of telling him about her future plans.
Su Qingzhi's cooperation with Rong En will be carried out secretly, without being made public. However, given Sheng Tingchen's shrewdness, it's impossible that he hasn't noticed. But so far, it seems that he hasn't made any moves.
What exactly was the reason that Su Qingzhi secretly approached Jiang Huaixu behind Sheng Tingchen's back to discuss cooperation?
Is there some kind of rift between them?
Even so.
Given their relationship, they certainly wouldn't easily have a falling out.
She couldn't guess it right away.
But the professor must know the situation, so she doesn't need to think about it too much.
Wait until we get back to Repulse Bay.
It's almost 10 o'clock.
Sheng Tingchen went to the study first.
Meimei is sleeping in the master bedroom today. Rong Shu quietly opened the door and went in. The bedroom was lit with warm lights, and Meimei's small body was sleeping quietly in the middle of the big bed.
She stepped forward and looked at her daughter's obedient and sweet appearance, and her heart softened.
Rong Shu sat on the edge of the bed and watched her daughter for a while, then pulled the blanket over her, and then got up and went to the dressing room to get a clean change of pajamas.
After washing up and getting ready, she lay down next to her daughter, scrolling through recent financial news reports on her phone.
Until 11:30.
She was about to put down her phone and take a break.
Sheng Tingchen opened the bedroom door and entered. Seeing the woman still awake, he asked, "Not resting yet?"
Rong Shu looked up at him and said, "I was just getting ready to go to sleep."
Sheng Tingchen hummed in agreement, said nothing more, and went to the dressing room.
Rong Shu watched the man's figure, then put down her phone and lay down.
Sheng Tingchen finished tidying up and returned to the bedroom. He went straight to the bedside, lifted the covers, and lay down on the other side of Meimei's bed.
The lights dimmed.
The entire bedroom was plunged into complete darkness.
In the stillness of the night, only the steady sound of breathing could be heard.
The next day.
The sky gradually brightened.
As Rong Shu gradually regained consciousness, she slowly opened her eyes and saw Mei Mei's soft little face. Behind her, there was no one; the man had gotten up at some point.
It lasted until 7:30 in the morning.
Mei Mei woke up on time.
"Baby, you're awake."
Meimei yawned and called out, "Mommy."
"Time to get up."
Meimei reached out and begged for a hug.
Rong Shu picked up Mei Mei, supporting her bottom with both hands, and Mei Mei leaned lazily against her mother's shoulder.
After hugging her for a while, Rong Shu helped Mei Mei wash up and change her clothes, then took her hand and went downstairs.
Downstairs in the living room.
Sheng Tingchen was leaning back on the sofa, flipping through the newspaper.
Simultaneously.
Rong Shu also saw a figure. The girl was wearing a blue dress and an apron, with her long hair half tied up. She walked up to Sheng Tingchen with a cup of coffee in her hand and presented it to him with both hands. "Mr. Sheng, please try the coffee I made."
Orisa looked at the man with expectant amber eyes.
Sheng Tingchen glanced up at the mother and daughter coming downstairs, then reached out and took the coffee cup, taking a small sip. The coffee was rich and aromatic.
"dad."
Meimei shouted and ran towards her father.
Sheng Tingchen put down his coffee.
Orissa turned back to Rong Shu, giving her a gentle, angelic smile, and greeted her naturally and skillfully, "Good morning, Evelynn."
Rong Shu looked at Olissa.
Orissa walked up to Rong Shu, took her hand, and said with undisguised gratitude, "Thank you, Evelynn, for letting me stay here."
Rong Shu frowned involuntarily.
Looking into the girl's pure and innocent eyes, her happy expression seemed like she had just eaten her favorite dessert, revealing no trace of scheming, greed, or deception within her.
She even vaguely felt that what she was saying was the truth.
She paused for a few seconds.
Rong Shu withdrew her hand and looked at the man sitting on the sofa with a deep gaze. Sheng Tingchen pulled Mei Mei up and met Rong Shu's eyes. His dark eyes were as calm and deep as ever, and he said in a calm tone, "Let's go have breakfast first."
We arrived at the restaurant.
Orisa did not have breakfast with them.
Meimei said to Rong Shu, "Aunt Orissa is so beautiful, she really looks like a princess."
Meimei's tone was full of amazement at Orissa's beautiful appearance.
Obviously.
Orissa was here before Sheng Tingchen and Meimei returned to Repulse Bay yesterday. Meimei had already met her and didn't dislike her.
Then Meimei asked again, "Mommy, how long are you letting Aunt Olissa stay here?"
Upon hearing this...
Rong Shu was taken aback for a moment. She looked at the man sitting quietly in the main seat, drinking his porridge, and her fingers tightened involuntarily. She replied to Mei Mei's question, "You'll have to ask your father."
Meimei said, "Of course Mom decides! Dad doesn't."
Rong Shu said, "Alright, Meimei, eat your food first."
After breakfast.
Sheng Tingchen had something to do early in the morning, so he went to the company first.
Rong Shu was preparing to send Mei Mei to kindergarten.
"Evelynn, beautiful."
Orissa strode towards them from the direction of the kitchen, carrying a beautifully packaged bag, her delicate face covered in flour.
"Evelynn, these are macarons and mille-feuille that I made. You can have them if you're hungry. And this one is for little Meimei."
Rong Shu looked at Olissa and suddenly felt that she really was like a child who didn't understand anything.
Looking at her expectant and sincere expression, Rong Shu was momentarily at a loss as to how to treat her.
He paused for a moment.
She reached out and took it.
Rong Shu answered the call.
Orissa was delighted and said, "I didn't make it too sweet. I hope you like it, Evelynn. If you have any other desserts you like, just let me know and I'll make them."
Rong Shu hummed in agreement, without saying anything more, and said, "It's getting late, we should go now."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
The driver took them out of the villa.
Orissa watched the vehicle slowly drive away.
Rong Shu observed Orissa through the rearview mirror, acting as if she were simply seeing off the mistress of the house, without any overstepping of her bounds.
Rong Shu looked away as her figure gradually disappeared.
