Chapter 278 It's Best Not to Fall in Love with Me
As Rong Shu saw Jiang Huaixu off and walked into the villa, she received a call from Xue Mingcheng.
She answered, saying, "Hello!"
Xue Mingcheng has been following Sheng Tingchen for the past two days.
Therefore, Rong Shu knew that Sheng Tingchen had met with Su Qingzhi yesterday. Su Qingzhi's expression was very unpleasant when she left the club, indicating that her conversation with Sheng Tingchen had not gone well.
What kind of unexpected event could possibly require discussion on New Year's Day?
That evening, Sheng Tingchen went to see him and took him to the hospital.
"Miss An returned to Huatang Mansion, but was sent away again today. President Sheng did not stay at Huatang Mansion for long before returning to Repulse Bay."
Rong Shu listened to Xue Mingcheng's report and realized that Su Qingzhi and Sheng Tingchen had a conflict.
That day at the airport, the brother and sister were still reluctant to part, and An Qingyue came back to find him. Why did Su Qingzhi send her away so quickly?
Rong Shu was filled with doubt.
For the next two days, Sheng Tingchen stayed at home, didn't go anywhere, and didn't attend any parties or drinking sessions, truly becoming a "good family man".
Rong Shu brought Mei Mei to the Rong family home.
Sheng Tingchen didn't rush her, but simply asked her when she was going home so he could pick her and her daughter up.
The last night of the holiday.
Sheng Tingchen personally drove to the Xishan Villa to pick them up.
Meimei said goodbye to Pei Lanhua and Rong Qingwen.
Although Yung Ching-man was very unhappy with Sheng Ting-chen about his daughter wanting to return to Repulse Bay, he couldn't say anything because his daughter had her own ideas.
Pei Lanhua's feelings were also complicated. Su Jinxi and An Qingyue must be having a hard time now. All their efforts now seemed to have been in vain.
But the thought of Xiaoshu being trapped in this marriage made her feel sorry for her, and Meimei was so cute and sensible.
As a mother herself, she understood Rong Shu's feelings best.
Rong Shu said goodbye to them and got into the car.
Sheng Tingchen settled Meimei in her child seat, fastened her seatbelt, closed the car door, and looked back at Rong Qingwen and Pei Lanhua standing there.
Sheng Tingchen said humbly, "We'll be leaving now. It's cold, please go back inside."
Anyone who looks at him would find him to be an absolutely perfect son-in-law.
Rong Qingwen and Pei Lanhua remained indifferent and did not respond.
Sheng Tingchen strode around the front of the car, got into the driver's seat, started the gas, and drove away.
Back to Repulse Bay.
Rong Shu took Mei Mei back to the bedroom, helped her wash up and put on her pajamas.
Sheng Tingchen walked in and said, "Go wash up first, I'll stay with Meimei."
"Daddy, I want to hear the story of the little hedgehog," Meimei said to her father.
Sheng Tingchen stepped forward, his eyes full of affection, and said, "Let me tell you."
Rong Shu returned to the master bedroom, and as soon as she opened the door, she smelled a rich fragrance of roses. Then she saw a huge bouquet of roses placed on the bed, the bright red roses looking delicate and beautiful.
She stepped forward, reached out and plucked a flower, gazing intently at it.
The Rhodes roses are extremely fresh; they must have been airlifted from France to Beijing today.
At this time.
Sheng Tingchen returned to the bedroom. He walked straight behind the woman, put his arm around her waist, leaned slightly against her shoulder, and softly asked, "Do you like it?"
Rong Shu twirled the rose in her hand, her face expressionless, making it impossible to know what she was thinking at that moment.
He paused for a moment.
She slowly began to speak: "Sheng Tingchen, have you ever loved someone?"
She used to think that Sheng Tingchen loved An Qingyue, but now she realized that An Qingyue was just a pet he kept. Pets don't need intelligence or cleverness, they just need to be pretty and depend on him for everything. He can control all her emotions.
A man of his status doesn't need the so-called "matching social status" to enhance his value; as long as his emotional needs are met, that's enough.
An Qingyue is no longer of any meaning to him, and even if he gives up, he will not suffer any loss.
He has always loved only himself, and now there is also Meimei. Meimei is completely under his control, so no one can cause him any emotional crisis.
Hearing the woman's question, Sheng Tingchen's gaze fell on the roses in her hand. The lamplight illuminated the man's deep eyes, revealing an unfathomable emotion. A slight smile curved his lips as he said in a deep voice, "Do you want to try loving me?"
Rong Shu slowly turned her head.
They were so close, their eyes met, their reflections were in each other's eyes, and their breaths carried each other's scent. With just a slight movement, their lips could touch.
In that instant.
It was as if the world had quieted down.
Rong Shu turned around in the man's arms, and Sheng Tingchen put his arm around her waist and stood in front of her. He just went along with her.
The woman suddenly pushed the man away with both hands.
Sheng Tingchen sat heavily on the edge of the bed, his hands supporting him behind his back. His silk pajamas were open, revealing glimpses of his strong and muscular chest.
The man gazed at the woman before him, his dark eyes deep and unfathomable.
Rong Shu leaned forward, kneeling on the edge of the bed, one hand on the man's shoulder, the rose in her other hand resting on the man's chin, and Sheng Tingchen tilted his head back slightly.
"Sheng Tingchen, you'd better not fall in love with me."
Sheng Tingchen's handsome features were unusually gentle. He asked, "Why?"
The quiet space seemed to be bathed in warm light, filled with the rich fragrance of roses. Everything was so beautiful and romantic, yet the more perfect and gentle something is, the more artificial it appears.
Rong Shu loosened her grip, and the roses fell onto him. She straightened up and said, "Take the flowers away."
She turned and went to the dressing room.
The next day.
When Rong Shu arrived at the company, she held a three-hour morning meeting to summarize the year's performance projects, which generally showed a steady upward trend.
There are less than twenty days until the Chinese New Year.
Rong En will take a week off earlier than usual.
After working overtime for a while, Rong Shu has almost finished her work for the year. She doesn't need to be so busy anymore; she just needs to prepare for the start of the new year.
After the morning meeting.
Senior executives were successively going to Jiang Huaixu's office to report on their work.
3 PM.
Rong Shu arrived at Jiang Huaixu's office.
After discussing work.
Rong Shu suddenly asked, "Is there any conflict of interest between Sheng Tingchen and Su Qingzhi?"
She was genuinely puzzled by what happened a couple of days ago.
Jiang Huaixu looked at her and asked, "Why do you ask that?"
Rong Shu didn't hide anything from Jiang Huaixu and gave him a brief explanation.
Jiang Huaixu said, "I don't know if they will have conflicts over interests, but Su Qingzhi's ability to break free from the An family's control and gradually turn against the MK Group cannot be separated from Sheng Tingchen's help."
Upon hearing this...
Rong Shu was startled.
Jiang Huaixu continued, "It seems that Sheng Tingchen did not get involved in the internal struggles of MK, but he did it very discreetly. Because of his cooperation with the An family, I discovered that Sheng Tingchen has people in Haitou Holdings."
Haitou Holdings is one of the shareholders of MK Group, and in theory, it should have close ties with the An family. Unexpectedly, it also has Sheng Tingchen's people.
