Chapter 229 There's no need to resist so much
The man didn't dare say a word and fled as quickly as possible with his head down.
Sheng Tingchen looked at Rong Shu and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Rong Shu replied casually, "Waiting for someone."
"Who are you waiting for?"
Rong Shu glanced at him and said, "Mr. Sheng, if you have something to do, go ahead and do your own thing. Let's pretend we don't know each other in public."
Sheng Tingchen said, "It's just a few words, there's no need to be so resistant."
Rong Shu turned to look at the man, then simply stopped talking. She took out her phone to make a call, "Xiao Shu!"
Sheng Tingze's voice came through.
Rong Shu put down her phone and quickly walked forward to support Sheng Tingze, who was being helped out and looked like he had drunk quite a bit.
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
Upon hearing this, Rong Shu was startled and looked at the man supporting Sheng Tingze.
Sheng Tingze's head felt heavy, but he was still quite conscious. "Don't shout," he said weakly.
My friend just smiled.
"You go back now, I'll be leaving now."
Sheng Tingze said to his friend.
"Alright, let's reschedule for another day. Sister-in-law, I'll leave Tingze to you."
Rong Shu smiled faintly and reached out to support Sheng Tingze. "Can you still walk?"
"I'm fine, let's go!"
After coming out, the cold wind made Sheng Tingze more alert. He saw the man standing not far away. In the dim light, the man's expression looked inscrutable.
Sheng Tingze simply nodded at him.
Rong Shu did not go to see Sheng Tingchen again.
The two walked towards the parking lot.
Rong Shu only heard a drunken, tearful voice calling from behind, "Brother Chen!"
Rong Shu subconsciously glanced back and saw An Qingyue being helped out of the bar, completely drunk. She looked like she was so heartbroken that she had drunk herself into a stupor.
Upon seeing An Qingyue, Sheng Tingchen strode forward.
Rong Shu looked away and didn't look again.
Got in the car.
Sheng Tingze leaned back in his seat, feeling utterly exhausted.
Rong Shu started the accelerator and drove away.
She tried to slow down.
The car had only been driven for a few minutes.
Sheng Tingze's phone vibrated. He picked it up, glanced at it, and answered the call.
"mom."
"Okay, I understand."
After he hung up the phone.
Sheng Tingze said to Rong Shu, "Shu, could you please take me home?"
Rong Shu didn't ask any further questions and simply said, "Okay."
She made a U-turn at the intersection ahead.
Half an hour later.
The car was parked at the Sheng family's old house.
Fu Ying and her husband have always lived in the old house, but in the courtyard on the east side of the old house.
Rong Shu parked her car outside the lobby.
Sheng Tingze had already fallen asleep leaning against the wall. She nudged his shoulder and said, "Tingze, we're here."
Sheng Tingze opened his eyes groggily, feeling his head grow even heavier.
Rong Shu unbuckled her seatbelt, pushed open the door, got out of the car, quickly walked around the front of the car, opened the passenger door, and Sheng Tingze suddenly vomited out the door.
Rong Shu was startled.
I hurried toward the living room and saw Fu Ying coming downstairs.
Fu Ying was taken aback when she saw Rong Shu.
Rong Shu greeted her politely and said, "Madam Sheng, I brought Tingze back, but he doesn't seem to be feeling well. Have someone help him into the house first."
Fu Ying quickly instructed the servants to help the person inside.
The maid helped Sheng Tingze into the house. As soon as Fu Ying got close, she smelled the strong odor of alcohol on her son and asked worriedly, "Why did you drink so much?"
Sheng Tingze said, "I'm fine, I just had a few drinks with some friends."
"Go upstairs and rest first. I'll have someone make you a bowl of hangover soup."
Sheng Tingze looked at Rong Shu and said, "Xiao Shu, be careful on your way back."
Rong Shu hummed in agreement and said, "You should get some rest."
talking.
She said goodbye to Fu Ying and then turned and left.
Just as Rong Shu was about to open the car door and get in.
"Rong Shu!"
Fu Ying, who was standing on the steps, suddenly called out to her.
Rong Shu suddenly stopped in her tracks.
The Sheng family already knew her identity, but she was still startled when she heard Fu Ying call her that.
Fu Ying walked towards Rong Shu.
Rong Shu looked at her and said with a smile, "Madam."
She didn't have much interaction with Fu Ying, but she was Fu Lao's daughter, and she seemed to be more gentle than Shen Yurong.
Fu Ying asked, "I heard you and Tingchen are in divorce proceedings?"
Rong Shu hummed in agreement, "But the lawsuit has already been withdrawn."
Fu Ying was not surprised at all upon hearing this.
After all, what kind of person is Sheng Tingchen? If he doesn't want a divorce now, how could Rong Shu possibly win the divorce case against him?
"Does Meimei know you're her mother?"
Rong Shu didn't know how to answer. In Mei Mei's heart, she was her mother, but she just hadn't admitted it to Mei Mei yet.
She didn't know why Fu Ying suddenly asked her that.
"I guess so!"
Looking at the bitterness in Rong Shu's eyes, Fu Ying had a guess in her heart and said, "I know you suffered a lot of grievances back then. Even with Mei Mei, it is difficult for you to live with Ting Chen now. But Mei Mei is still young. It can be seen that she really likes you. Even if you really can't be with Ting Chen, at least give her a complete and happy childhood. The child is always innocent."
Rong Shu understood what Fu Ying meant: she hoped that Rong Shu would compromise for Mei Mei's sake, at least until the child was old enough to understand.
Most elders probably hope that women can compromise for the sake of their children.
She just didn't understand why Fu Ying was telling her all this.
Sheng Tingchen wasn't even that close to his own mother, let alone this aunt.
Perhaps it's because of Meimei's appearance!
It's clear that Meimei is very popular with the entire Sheng family.
She simply smiled faintly and said, "I understand what you mean, Madam. It's cold outside, Madam, please don't catch a cold. Please come inside!"
Fu Ying didn't say anything more, but said, "Come over for dinner this Thursday night!"
Rong Shu was puzzled.
Fu Ying smiled without explaining and turned to go back inside.
Rong Shu turned and got into the car, planning to ask Sheng Tingze tomorrow what was going on on Thursday.
She got home after 10 p.m.
Walking into the living room, Rong Qingwen sat on the sofa watching TV. "Dad, you haven't rested yet."
Rong Qingwen turned to look at her, "Xiao Shu, you're back."
"Is my brother back?"
"You're back. You should be busy in your study right now. Did you have a good weekend?"
"Yeah, I've relaxed a bit, now I can get back to work this week."
Rong Shu sat opposite Rong Qingwen and talked to her father for a while.
"By the way, what's the current situation between you and Sheng Tingchen?" Rong Qingwen asked.
Rong Shu said, "The same as always." She smiled helplessly, "Let's leave it at that for now. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry to get married."
Rong Qingwen said, "You two can't really be considered husband and wife right now. The Sheng family doesn't acknowledge your existence at all. Xiaoshu, you can't stay alone forever. You can also try to develop your own relationship."
He now hopes that Rong Shu can get a divorce as soon as possible and remarry someone who loves and cherishes her.
Su Jinxi's words may not have been entirely for her daughter's good, but they weren't without merit. If Xiaoshu had a new boyfriend, Sheng Tingchen might be willing to get a divorce.
