Chapter 446 This day has finally come.
After Rong Shu left.
Sheng Tingchen put down his chopsticks, stood up, and walked straight outside.
Pei Yu asked, "What did you and Xiao Shu talk about?"
Sheng Tingchen stopped in his tracks. "I'll take her and Meimei back first."
That's all.
He stepped away.
Inside the living room.
Meimei was about to go upstairs to find her mother when she saw her father come out. She said, "Dad, Mom said she's very tired and wants to rest, but I feel like she's not feeling well."
Sheng Tingchen said, "Then let's go back first. Meimei, wait a bit. Daddy will go call Mommy."
Meimei nodded and said, "Okay."
Sheng Tingchen went upstairs to Rong Shu's room. He knocked on the door and called out, "Rong Shu."
There was no response from inside.
She reached out and tried to turn the doorknob, but the door was locked from the inside.
He frowned.
I went to the nanny to get the keys.
Open the door and go inside.
Rong Shu sat quietly on the edge of the bed with her back to the door, her hands hanging limply at her sides. She held a phone in one hand, and An Qingyue's voice came clearly from the receiver, her words filled with smugness, ruthlessness, and hysteria...
"Your mother doesn't want you, your brother doesn't want you either. They wouldn't even give you a second glance when you looked so ugly. Don't think that just because you're pretty now, Sheng Tingchen will like you. He was utterly disgusted and repulsed by your ugly appearance before, hahaha."
"Rong Shu, no one in this world will love you. You are superfluous. You shouldn't live in this world. If I were you, I would kill myself right now because I have no face to live in this world."
"..."
Rong Shu's expression was numb, and she was so quiet that she seemed not to be breathing, while An Qingyue hysterically provoked her.
Sheng Tingchen's face visibly turned cold instantly, and he strode forward to take the phone from Rong Shu's hand.
Rong Shu turned to stare at him, "Sheng Tingchen, let her continue!" Her voice was calm and still, like a stagnant pool.
When An Qingyue heard the name Sheng Tingchen, her excited voice stopped abruptly. Hearing that Rong Shu did not react at all, she was so angry that she wanted to throw her phone.
The call was eventually disconnected.
She threw her phone away violently, her bloodshot eyes filled with hatred.
Today is her grand engagement party. She is wearing a million-dollar haute couture gown and jewelry worth hundreds of millions.
She wanted everyone to know that she, An Qingyue, the eldest daughter of the An family, was the most noble woman in the world.
Her man was incomparably handsome, a man admired by countless women.
She wanted everyone who saw her to envy her happiness. She wanted Sheng Tingchen to regret not choosing her and instead going back to eat that old and disgusting weed, Rong Shu.
She had been eagerly anticipating this day, but it turned her into a laughingstock.
He was supposed to personally pick her up and take her to the manor, but in the end, only the driver picked her up. When she arrived at the engagement venue, all the guests arrived one after another, but Zhao Zheng did not appear, leaving her alone to face the scrutinizing gazes of all the guests.
The engagement banquet was delayed, and Zhao Zheng, the male protagonist, had not yet appeared.
The four ways to speak.
Many guests had come today out of respect for Zhao Zheng, but now that Zhao Zheng had not shown up, these guests gradually said goodbye and left.
I just overheard my father's phone call. Something suddenly happened at the company, Zhao Zheng suddenly disappeared, and it's related to Su Qingzhi.
What was supposed to be her grand engagement party turned into a joke.
Su Qingzhi doesn't want her.
Sheng Tingchen doesn't want her.
It's all because of that bitch Rong Shu.
She's not sick and about to die, so she might as well just die.
"Rong Shu, you bitch, go to hell!"
An Qingyue was smashing things wildly in the room.
Su Jinxi came in and was startled. "Qingyue, hurry up and stop them!"
The maid strode forward and stopped An Qingyue from continuing to smash the object.
"Get out of here."
Su Jinxi quickly stepped forward and took the glass bottle from her hand. "Qingyue, calm down."
Seeing her daughter's grief and distress, Su Jinxi felt as if her heart was about to shatter.
"Qingyue, it's alright."
Su Jinxi reached out and cupped her daughter's cheeks.
An Qingyue suddenly burst into tears, accusingly crying out, "Mom, why did my brother do this to me? Why?!"
Su Jinxi quickly hugged her daughter tightly and patted her shoulder to comfort her.
Inside the bedroom of the Rong family villa.
Sheng Tingchen stood beside her, his gaze fixed on her. She was very quiet, sitting there without saying a word, her whole being so thin that she seemed lifeless.
He curled his fingers slightly, wanting to say something, but for the first time felt at a loss, unsure of what to say.
time.
It was as if everything had frozen in time.
Only the wind outside the window lifted the soft curtain, and a leaf was quietly blown into the room, falling slowly and silently.
The clock on the wall ticked away.
Rong Shu suddenly stood up.
Sheng Tingchen's gaze followed the woman's movements.
She walked straight toward the balcony, and Sheng Tingchen followed.
The balcony faces the main entrance, where Jiang Huaixu's figure is clearly visible. A figure beside him is obscured by greenery, and only a side profile can be seen.
Pei Yu walked out.
Rong Shu stood on the railing, her eyes, devoid of any emotion, quietly gazing in the direction of the villa entrance.
Jiang Huaixu, standing outside the door, keenly sensed something. He looked up and saw Rong Shu standing on the balcony.
The wind blew through her hair, and even from this distance, he could feel the deathly loneliness emanating from her.
His heart suddenly tightened.
Su Qingzhi noticed Jiang Huaixu's unusual behavior and followed his gaze toward the balcony.
He took a step back.
Su Qingzhi saw Rong Shu.
Rong Shu also saw Su Qingzhi.
Even if we can't see each other clearly.
But Su Qingzhi could feel Rong Shu staring at him, and that gaze made him feel suffocated, as if the thorn stuck in his heart had finally taken root and sprouted, growing sharp thorns that pierced his nerves inch by inch, almost tearing him to pieces.
Jiang Huaixu withdrew his gaze and strode directly into the villa.
Pei Yu realized something and turned back, only to see Su Qingzhi standing there blankly, as if her soul had been taken away, and there was no trace of her former heroic spirit.
"President Su."
Pei Yu called out.
Su Qingzhi came to his senses, but his feet felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, and he couldn't move them no matter what he did.
Pei Yu continued, "You must have thought about this day for a long time. What you have to face will eventually have to be faced."
Su Qingzhi seemed to have finally found her voice, but it was so hoarse it was unrecognizable. "Go in!"
He moved his feet, but his feet felt no ease, as if they were bound by shackles.
Pei Yu watched Su Qingzhi's swaying and disheveled figure, and slowed his pace to follow behind him.
