Chapter 380 She hadn't contacted Sheng Tingchen at all.
Chapter 380 She hadn't contacted Sheng Tingchen at all.
It's unbelievable that Wen Dong's wife is friends with Evelynn. Clearly, she was desperate and wanted to take a shortcut, so she probably asked Evelynn for help.
They had followed President Sheng for so many years, and they knew his style all too well; he was not one to show any mercy.
After listening to President Gao's account, Sheng Tingchen's deep, handsome face remained unchanged. He didn't ask any more questions. Judging from Sheng Tingchen's attitude, others knew that even if Wen Dong went to President Sheng's wife for help, it wouldn't be of much use.
Everyone treated it as a minor incident and didn't take it to heart at all.
Rong Shu contacted Qin Xue the next day.
She wanted to tell her the truth: their proposal definitely wouldn't pass Yunshan's review. She could help introduce other connections to Wen Dong, but whether it worked out depended on his own abilities.
However, she hadn't yet spoken.
The call was just connected.
Qin Xue's excited voice came through, "I was just about to call Xiao Shu. Wen Dong called me today to say that the proposal passed the first round of review. I heard that Wen Dong and the others had initially received news that it hadn't passed the first round of review, but they didn't expect it to pass. I'm so grateful to you, Xiao Shu."
Upon hearing this...
Rong Shu was stunned and stood there, completely bewildered. She had not contacted Sheng Tingchen at all.
The Wendong proposal can only pass one round of review if someone is really turning a blind eye.
It wasn't until Qin Xue mentioned that Wen Dong had encountered Sheng Tingchen the previous night that I heard her say that.
So it was Wen Dong who told Sheng Tingchen about her relationship with Qin Xue, and it was Sheng Tingchen who personally asked to keep Cheng Zhi's proposal?
Qin Xue did not hear Rong Shu's response, but because she was so happy that Rong Shu had helped them, she did not notice Rong Shu's unusual silence for a moment.
She continued, "I heard from Wen Dong that Sheng Tingchen is a rather cold-hearted person. This shows that you really hold a place in his heart, Xiao Shu. Mei Mei is clearly a child who grew up pampered and spoiled. Marriages where one marries into a superior family are unlikely to be happy. No matter what happened in the past, as long as he cares about you now and in the future, Xiao Shu, you should cherish this opportunity."
Qin Xue spoke earnestly.
Rong Shu gradually pulled herself out of her thoughts and stopped talking to Qin Xue.
"I have something to take care of, I'll hang up now."
"Okay, Xiaoshu, you go ahead with your work. You and your husband should definitely come this weekend. I really want to thank you properly."
Rong Shu gave a faint "hmm," hung up the phone, and put it aside. Her expression darkened. What exactly did Sheng Tingchen mean?
in the afternoon.
Meimei went to her office after school.
"Mom, Dad will be off work early today, let's go shopping together. It's been so long since Mom and Dad have taken Meimei shopping."
Meimei's words clearly indicate that she has already made up her mind.
She took Meimei's hand and said, "Why didn't you discuss it with Mom beforehand?"
Meimei blinked her big eyes at her mother and said, "Because Mommy will definitely say yes to Meimei!"
Rong Shu looked at her daughter and could only helplessly rub her little head.
six o'clock.
Meimei received a call from her father.
Rong Shu was in Jiang Huaixu's office. In order to help her get used to the work pace in City C in advance, he gave her a few documents so that she could have a better understanding of the situation.
At this time.
The office door was suddenly opened.
Meimei peeked in, "Mommy, Uncle Jiang."
Meimei had been to Jiang Huaixu's office before, and now everyone in the company knows that she is Evelynn and Sheng Tingchen's daughter.
Jiang Huaixu watched as Meimei beckoned her in, "Meimei, come here."
Meimei entered the office, walked up to Jiang Huaixu, and asked, "Uncle Jiang, could you let my mom go home now?"
Jiang Huaixu, holding Meimei's little hand, asked, "Meimei, is something urgent happening to you and your mother?"
Meimei explained, "Dad is waiting for Mom and me downstairs to go shopping with us."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Huaixu's eyes behind his glasses dimmed almost imperceptibly, and he tightened his grip on Meimei's fingers.
Rong Shu said, "Meimei, Mom has some work to discuss with Uncle Jiang. Why don't you wait in Mom's office first?"
Meimei looked at Jiang Huaixu again, her bright eyes pleading with him to let her mother off work.
Jiang Huaixu patted her little head and looked at Rong Shu, saying, "You can go home now!"
Meimei said happily, "Thank you, Uncle Jiang." Then, she walked to her mother, took her hand, and said, "Mom, let's go!"
Rong Shu looked at her daughter, not knowing what else to say. She said goodbye to Jiang Huaixu and then took Meimei's hand and left the office.
Jiang Huaixu watched the mother and daughter leave, falling into silence. He took off his glasses and slowly closed them. The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the French windows onto him, but his aura remained cold and desolate.
When he slowly opened his eyes again, his dark eyes became even more profound.
Rong Shu carried Mei Mei's schoolbag in one hand and took her hand as they went downstairs.
I walked out of the company gate.
Meimei spotted the car parked by the roadside immediately. The driver got out, opened the door, and Meimei got in. "Daddy."
The man inside the car, whose aloof and indifferent aura had softened the moment he saw his daughter, looked at Rong Shu getting into the car, his dark eyes revealing an ambiguous emotion.
Rong Shu did not go to see him.
The driver got into the car, started the engine, and drove away.
As soon as I got on the bus.
Sheng Tingchen received two work-related phone calls.
Wait until he finishes his call.
Meimei said angrily, "Dad is off work now."
Sheng Tingchen put down his phone, smiled gently, and said, "Okay, Dad won't call anymore."
Meimei suddenly reached out and grabbed her mother's hand. Rong Shu asked, "What's wrong?"
Meimei didn't answer, but turned to her father and said, "Dad, give me your hand."
Rong Shu instantly realized what Mei Mei was doing.
Sheng Tingchen glanced at Rong Shu, then handed his hand to Mei Mei. Mei Mei held their hands together, and the moment she touched the man's fingers, Rong Shu's fingers froze instantly.
"Daddy should love Mommy, and Mommy should love Daddy. Daddy and Mommy love Meimei, so Daddy and Mommy can't always argue. Daddy, you're a man, so you should give in to Mommy. Even if Mommy is wrong, she's still right."
Meimei didn't know why, but she felt that her parents had been acting strangely these past two days, even though they were perfectly fine when the family went out to sea together.
Sheng Tingchen looked at Meimei and said, "Okay, I'll listen to whatever Meimei says."
Meimei turned to look at her mother, "Where's Mommy?"
Rong Shu smiled, "Mom knows."
Meimei was always the first to sense the situation between Sheng Tingchen and her partner.
Get out of the car.
We entered the shopping mall.
Meimei went straight to the jewelry store, wanting her father to buy a ring for her mother. Rong Shu pulled Meimei away, saying, "Dad has already bought one, there's no need to buy another."
Meimei said, "No, Meimei wants to choose for Daddy and Mommy."
Sheng Tingchen looked at Rong Shu and said, "Let Meimei choose."
Rong Shu looked up at him; the man's dark eyes were like an abyss, unfathomable.
At this time.
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed two familiar figures. Before she could turn around, she heard Zhao Zheng's voice, "Tingchen, Evelynn, what a coincidence."
Rong Shu turned her head and saw Zhao Zheng and An Qingyue.
