Chapter 460 You really didn't need to do this.
Rong Shu answered the phone. As soon as the man spoke, she heard an impatient woman's voice, saying, "Sheng Tingchen, can't you just shut up for a second?"
Sheng Tingchen paused, his hand holding the coffee cup, and slowly asked, "Who upset you again? Did work not go well today?"
Hearing the man's gentle voice, Rong Shu suddenly felt a kind of irritation that she had nowhere to vent.
She took a deep breath and asked, "What is it?"
Sheng Tingchen: "It's nothing. Are you sleeping well over there? Is there anything you'd like to eat?"
Rong Shu's daily life here is taken care of in every way. All the expensive ingredients she uses, drinks, and eats are freshly air-freighted from abroad.
The nanny will adjust the meals in real time based on her daily eating habits.
Rong Shu clenched her hands tightly, and then she heard the man say, "I sent two bottles of red wine over. They were just opened from the cellar. Try them first and see how they taste. If you like them, I'll send you more."
"Sheng Tingchen," she called out, her voice unusually deep.
"What's wrong?"
You really don't need to do this.
Her tone was exceptionally serious.
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, then the man slowly said, "You're not fully recovered yet, so don't think too much."
"..."
Wait until the call ends.
Sheng Tingchen put down his phone and dialed Su Qingzhi's number.
The call was answered quickly.
"What is it?"
Sheng Tingchen asked directly, "Did you go see her today?"
Su Qingzhi paused for a moment, "How did you know?"
He came to see Xiao Shu, but no one would tell Sheng Tingchen, and Xiao Shu would certainly not explain anything to Sheng Tingchen. Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief. He guessed that Sheng Tingchen had contacted Xiao Shu beforehand.
Hearing his wary tone, Sheng Tingchen curled his lips and said, "Why are you so nervous?"
"Why should I be nervous? No matter what, Xiaoshu and I are family. Anyway, I have plenty of time. Tomorrow I'm going with her to attend the wedding of an elder's grandson. You probably don't know, but when Xiaoshu and I were little, we often came here to live with my grandma."
Sheng Tingchen listened to Su Qingzhi's words and chuckled cryptically, "So?"
Su Qingzhi did not answer, but said, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."
Sheng Tingchen: "Hang it up!"
Su Qingzhi put down his phone and was about to end the call when the other party hung up first.
Su Qingzhi stared at the phone screen that had been hung up.
That night.
Rong Shu received a call from Rong Qingwen, reminding her to deliver the gift tomorrow.
"Dad, I understand."
Rong Qingwen couldn't help but persuade her, "Xiao Shu, your brother really knows he was wrong. Actually, he hasn't had an easy time these past few years either."
"He had always wanted to come and find us, but at the time he was in a bad situation in Anjia and was worried about things happening every day. Before, Dad was confused, and your brother was worried that something like this would happen, so he never dared to show up."
If that guarantee agreement had happened earlier, the An family would definitely have been able to use it to control Su Qingzhi. So the most important reason why the An family misjudged the situation was that they didn't figure out where Su Qingzhi's trump card was.
"Your brother was afraid you'd find out about him, so he never let us tell you. He feels really guilty. Xiaoshu, please give your brother a chance!" Rong Qingwen said earnestly.
Rong Shu said, "Dad, I understand."
Rong Qingwen didn't say anything more, and said, "Okay, Dad won't bother you anymore. Get some rest early tonight."
"Um."
Rong Shu put down her phone, her gaze fixed on the TV screen, but she couldn't concentrate on anything. She got up and walked to the balcony, looking up at the distant darkness, taking a deep breath, her mind suddenly filled with indescribable turmoil.
The following day was the weekend.
Rong Shu finished getting ready to go out, and when she opened the door, she saw Su Qingzhi leaning against the wall waiting for her.
When Su Qingzhi saw her, she smiled and raised her hand to greet her, "Good morning, little sister."
Upon hearing the term "younger sister," Rong Shu couldn't help but frown.
Su Qingzhi seemed completely oblivious. "Let's go, it's about time to go."
Rong Shu glanced at him, then looked away without saying anything.
She got into Su Qingzhi's car.
The wedding banquet was held at an eco-farm in the suburbs, about an hour's drive away.
They all prepared monetary gifts directly, so there was no need to give any additional gifts.
along the way.
Rong Shu looked out the car window, and Su Qing kept talking to her. Although Rong Shu still refused, he seemed to enjoy it.
period.
Rong Shu received a call from Song Yan.
"Xiaoshu, where are you planning to go this weekend?"
Rong Shu said, "It's the wedding of an elder's grandson. I'm going to attend today."
Song Yan, "Are you alone?"
Rong Shu paused for a moment, then said, "There's one more person."
Song Yan instantly guessed what was going on and asked in a soft voice, "So you're together now?"
Rong Shu hummed in agreement.
Song Yan didn't ask any more questions. "By the way, President Jiang and I are coming over this Wednesday. He's coming to inspect the work. I'm mainly here to keep you company so you won't be bored."
Rong Shu smiled and said, "Okay."
"..."
After the chat ended.
Rong Shu put down her phone.
Su Qingzhi glanced at her and asked, "Is Jiang Huaixu coming over next week?"
For a long time.
Rong Shu gave a curt "hmm" without much emotion.
This was the first time she had finally responded to his question.
Su Qingzhi continued, "Perfect timing, let's have a meal together when he gets here."
When they arrived at the wedding venue.
Knowing roughly that they were coming, the host family had arranged for people to wait for them. When Su Qingzhi and Rong Shu appeared, it caused a stir.
The other party was quite enthusiastic.
"Look at him, he's really handsome, even more so than your dad was when he was young."
"Xiao Shu was a beauty from a young age, and she truly grew up to be a great beauty!"
"I've never heard your dad mention anything about you getting married. Do you both have partners now?"
"When are you coming to Beijing for your wedding?! Hahaha!"
"..."
Although they were related, to Rong Shu they were really just strangers. She didn't like the excessive enthusiasm of unfamiliar people.
Su Qingzhi answered the relatives' questions with great composure. He also noticed Rong Shu's discomfort. After giving a generous gift, the two of them made an excuse to take Rong Shu away first. Since there was still some time before dinner, they took her for a walk around.
After the two left.
One of the bridesmaids was the bride's younger sister. Watching Su Qingzhi's departing figure, she quickly took her sister's hand and said excitedly with a blush on her face, "Sister, could you please have someone introduce us later?"
The bride looked at her sister and said, "We'll ask her later."
Su Qingzhi and Rong Shu strolled around the neighborhood; there were quite a few people holding banquets here today.
"It's a rare opportunity to attend a wedding banquet like this; it's quite lively."
It wasn't some extravagant wedding of wealthy families, but rather a simple wedding with a more down-to-earth feel.
