Chapter 429 No Emotional Foundation
in the afternoon.
Jiang Weiyang, carrying the child, and Cheng Xin arrived at Repulse Bay.
Upon seeing Rong Shu, the two were taken aback. After not seeing her for some time, she had clearly lost a lot of weight, and the flamboyant yet aloof temperament between her brows and eyes had faded considerably. Her eyes revealed a hint of fatigue, lacking their former radiance, as if she had been seriously ill.
"Xiao Shu, what's wrong with you lately?"
Rong Shu smiled and said, "It's nothing, I'm just not feeling well and I'm recuperating now."
Jiang Weiyang held her hand and said, "You'll have to take good care of yourself and eat more. Look how much weight you've lost."
Rong Shu smiled and nodded. "I know."
Cheng Xin apologized to Rong Shu once again for what happened at the banquet.
When Sheng Tingchen arrived at the banquet hall that night, he learned what had happened. Although he didn't say anything, that's what made people feel inexplicably uneasy.
Afterwards, the project submitted for approval by her second aunt's family was not approved.
When asked for help, Sheng Tingyu refused. He only reminded her, "Tingchen has made his relationship with Rong Shu public. Your second aunt's actions in public are a slap in his face. No matter how much she looks down on her, it doesn't change the fact that she and Sheng Tingchen are husband and wife. Tingchen's mother's disapproval of Rong Shu is their own family matter, and outsiders should refrain from interfering."
Cheng Xin had no choice.
Rong Shu thought of that night, "It's all in the past, there's no need to bring it up again."
Cheng Xin pursed her lips and didn't say anything more. The purpose of her and Jiang Weiyang's visit today was to have Rong Shu give Sheng Tingze some advice.
I showed her five photos.
Every girl is exceptionally beautiful, one in a million, regardless of her family background or appearance.
"I think this Miss Qin is quite nice," Jiang Weiyang said.
Rong Shu looked at the girl in the photo. She had long, straight black hair, a perfect oval face, a tall figure, and an ethereal air. At first glance, she looked like a noble lady raised by a prestigious family.
Judging from her appearance, she is indeed the most outstanding one among these five photos.
She learned from Jiang Weiyang that this Miss Qin was Qin Zhan's sister. At first, she didn't have much of an impression of her, until Cheng Xin mentioned the gathering organized by Xi Mingshan. Rong Shu suddenly remembered the man with Buddhist beads on his hand and an indifferent expression who kept people at arm's length.
The Qin family now has little contact with the upper echelons of Beijing society. Although they have retreated to the sidelines, their influence and status remain unquestionable.
However, this Ms. Qin did not have the energy to be trained abroad and has always received top-notch Chinese education in China.
Fu Ying was actually most satisfied with this Miss Qin. Of course, she couldn't force Sheng Tingze to like her, so she just had a few more options for him to choose from.
Rong Shu said, "This Miss Qin is indeed outstanding in every way, but the most important thing is still Tingze's own choice."
Cheng Xin said, "Then let's arrange to meet this Miss Qin another day when you have time. Xiao Shu, you can have a chat with her."
Rong Shu declined, saying, "This kind of thing should be discussed with Tingze's mother first."
Just as Cheng Xin was about to say something, Jiang Weiyang interrupted, "Indeed, Tingze's mother should see it for herself. Since we all think this Miss Qin is good, Cheng Xin, you should ask your mother-in-law to arrange a time to meet and chat with Miss Qin another day."
Cheng Xin didn't say anything more, and said, "Alright, I'll tell my mother-in-law when I get home tonight."
The three sat in the living room, drinking tea and chatting.
Meimei is playing with the baby.
"Mom, my little brother is so cute."
Jiang Weiyang smiled kindly and said, "Then let Mom give birth to one for Meimei as soon as possible."
Meimei said, "Having a younger brother or sister is also very hard. Mom is sick and can't have any more children. We have to wait until Mom wants to have a younger brother or sister for Meimei."
Jiang Weiyang turned her head to look at Rong Shu. Rong Shu had a doting and gentle smile on her face, and it was hard to tell what other emotions she had. She said, "Meimei is such a caring child. It is a blessing for parents to have such a sensible and smart child."
Rong Shu looked at Jiang Weiyang and replied with a slight smile, "Yes."
At this time.
Rong Shu received a call from Rong Qingwen.
"Hello, Dad."
Rong Qingwen's voice came through, "Xiao Shu, your Aunt Pei said she'll be accompanying you to the hospital tomorrow, so you should come home today."
Yesterday in H city, the old Chinese medicine doctor's daughter helped me contact a doctor in Beijing who could perform acupuncture on me.
Rong Shu said, "Okay."
I hung up the phone.
Jiang Weiyang asked, "Are you going back to your parents' house tonight?"
Hearing the term "maternal home," Rong Shu felt a sense of unfamiliarity. She gave a soft "hmm," and said, "I have something to do tomorrow."
Jiang Weiyang said, "Then let's have dinner together tonight before you go back. It shouldn't be too late!"
"No, I'll go back after dinner."
"it is good."
Around five o'clock.
Sheng Tingchen called her, knowing that Jiang Weiyang and Cheng Xin were at home, and said, "Have dinner with your sister-in-law and the others. I'll come back as soon as I'm done."
Rong Shu said, "I'm going home tonight."
Sheng Tingchen asked, "What's the matter?"
Rong Shu: "My mom will accompany me to the hospital tomorrow."
Sheng Tingchen: "I can take you to the hospital first thing tomorrow morning."
Rong Shu said, "My dad called me, so I'll go back home."
Sheng Tingchen hummed in agreement and didn't press the matter further. "Have the driver take you home."
"Um."
After dinner.
Rong Shu saw Cheng Xin and Jiang Weiyang off.
On the road.
Cheng Xin asked, "Wei Yang, do you think Rong Shu and Ting Chen will live a good life together?"
Holding the sleeping child in her arms, Jiang Weiyang said, "Judging from last night, the two of them must have taken things a step further."
Although Rong Shu was dressed conservatively, her gait was very obvious. Anyone with experience could tell at a glance. This would be perfectly normal for other couples, but for Sheng Tingchen and Rong Shu, it was not easy to have physical intimacy.
"However, the fact that an adult man and woman have a relationship does not mean that there is an emotional foundation. If the two do not have a deep interest in each other and it is only for Meimei, then there is still a lot of uncertainty about the future. In any case, it depends on their own fate."
Cheng Xin sighed, "Who would have thought that Tingchen would actually lower himself to seek reconciliation for the sake of his wife whom he once hated? If Rong Shu can recognize her own limitations and know when to stop, that would be fine. But I'm afraid she wants too much, and Tingchen probably won't indulge her."
"..."
Rong Shu finished packing and prepared to go home. Mei Mei was feeling much better today and was going to school tomorrow, so she didn't plan to take her with her tonight.
Rong Shu instructed Mei Mei to be a good girl and say goodbye to her mother.
Songshan Villa.
Lu Xue slowly parked her car downstairs in the residential complex, went upstairs, rang the doorbell, and the housekeeper came and opened the car. She changed her shoes and went inside, seeing Shen Yurong sitting in the living room, and said, "Auntie."
Shen Yurong slowly put down her teacup, looked at Lu Xue, and said gently, "Xiao Xue is here, come and sit down."
Lu Xue handed the expensive gifts she was carrying to the nanny and walked over to sit next to Shen Yurong.
