Chapter 10 Don't Make Things Too Ugly
"How did you hurt your knee?" Jiang Huaixu asked.
Rong Shu shook her head weakly, not wanting to explain, and said, "It's nothing."
Jiang Huaixu did not pursue the matter further.
Silence fell over the ward.
half an hour.
Rong Shu said, "Professor Jiang, I would like to take my child with me when I go abroad."
Jiang Huaixu looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Rong Shu placed her hand on her lower abdomen, looked at the ceiling, and said, "I'm worried about leaving the child with the Sheng family."
"The Sheng family wants this child now. How are you going to take her away?"
Yes!
What ability does she have to take her away?
Madam Sheng still values this child very much.
She couldn't take her with her at all.
Jiang Huaixu got up and went over to her, pulling the blanket up to cover her and comforting her, "Alright, don't overthink things. Taking care of yourself and getting better is the most important thing."
Qi Yanchao and the nurse came in.
The nurse was about to apply medicine to Rong Shu.
The two then left the ward.
Qi Yanchao asked, "What happened between her and Sheng Tingchen today?"
Jiang Huaixu said, "I don't know."
Qi Yanchao said regretfully, "Sigh, Rong Shu is probably about to be kicked out by Sheng Tingchen. Guess who I saw him with today?"
Jiang Huaixu looked at him.
Qi Yanchao smiled meaningfully, "Take a guess."
Jiang Huaixu stared at him without saying a word.
Qi Yanchao nudged him with her arm. "Guess!"
Jiang Huaixu withdrew his gaze, too lazy to bother with it.
"Aren't you bored?"
Qi Yanchao didn't keep him in suspense any longer and said, "An Qingyue, the eldest daughter of the An family of the MK Group."
Jiang Huaixu didn't react much to his words, but Qi Yanchao was surprised. He looked at Jiang Huaixu's face again and again, as if he wanted to stick his eyes to his face.
Jiang Huaixu reached out and touched his face, pushing him away and saying with disgust, "Don't get your saliva on my face."
"You really don't have any reaction at all."
Jiang Huaixu glanced at him sideways, giving him the look of someone looking at an idiot.
Qi Yanchao was completely convinced and sighed, "Alas, as expected of our Professor Jiang, who remains unmoved by temptation and is as upright as a gentleman. You rejected Miss An, but Sheng Tingchen cherishes and spoils her rotten."
"..."
The nurse opened the door and came out.
Rong Shu plans to stay at the hospital tonight.
Jiang Huaixu then hired a caregiver to look after her.
Knowing she hadn't eaten yet, I ordered dinner for her and will bring it up later.
Jiang Huaixu gave Rong Shu a few more instructions before leaving the hospital with Qi Yanchao.
Rong Shu rested in the hospital overnight and recovered her energy. The nurse applied medicine to her knees, as her large belly made it difficult for her to do it herself.
Jiang Huaixu brought breakfast to see her early in the morning.
"How are you feeling?"
Rong Shu smiled, her complexion much rosier, and said, "I'm fine now, thank you, Professor."
"Okay, let's have breakfast first!"
Rong Shu ate breakfast.
Jiang Huaixu handed her a black down jacket he had brought, saying, "It's cold outside, so wear this for now."
The down jacket is his, and it fits Rong Shu perfectly now.
I left the hospital.
Got in the car.
Rong Shu now needs to go back to the Repulse Bay villa to get her luggage and phone; she can no longer stay here.
We arrived at the villa.
It's already nine o'clock.
Sheng Tingchen should have left by now.
Jiang Huaixu left after dropping her off; he had an important meeting to attend later.
Rong Shu said goodbye to him.
They went inside.
Seeing Sheng Tingchen coming downstairs, I realized he hadn't gone to the company yet.
Rong Shu froze on the spot, looking up at the man's expressionless handsome face. She couldn't help but feel a chill of fear. The man walked down step by step, his aura majestic. Each step felt like a blow to her heart, making it difficult for her to even breathe.
The man came down, but he didn't pay any attention to Rong Shu.
Rong Shu suddenly said, "I lost control of my emotions last night."
Jiang Huaixu is right. It won't do her any good to fall out with Sheng Tingchen. Anyway, it's only for the next two months, so a peaceful divorce is the best option. Let's not make things too ugly.
"I can finish processing the documents today, and I will also complete the handover as soon as possible."
Sheng Tingchen merely glanced at her coldly, offered no reply, and walked straight toward the restaurant.
After the man left.
Rong Shu sighed, turned around and walked towards the sofa. Looking at the stack of documents she had thrown into the trash can, she sat down on the sofa, first put the trash can on the coffee table, then picked up the documents and put the trash can back in its original place.
She glanced through the documents; they were all obsolete. Making her organize them was just a way of teaching her a lesson.
Rong Shu took the documents and went back to her room.
The door was still locked.
She went to the restaurant to find Liu Lihua.
Liu Lihua glanced at Sheng Tingchen, who remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement. Liu Lihua then walked towards Rong Shu, giving her a fierce glare as she looked at her.
Rong Shu entered the room.
She picked up her phone and saw several calls from Pei Lanhua and her father.
Rong Shu called Pei Lanhua directly.
"Why didn't you come home last night? You didn't answer your phone either! We were so worried!"
Rong Shu made up a random excuse, not wanting them to worry.
I'll be going back tonight.
Pei Lanhua didn't say anything, but simply said, "Alright then."
I hung up the phone.
Rong Shu changed her clothes again, deciding to return them another day. She carried the documents and pushed her luggage, preparing to leave for the company.
I just got to the living room.
Then Wu Fang's respectful voice was heard: "Madam, you've arrived. The master is still having his meal."
Rong Shu paused in her tracks and saw Shen Yurong, who was wearing a cashmere coat and exuding an air of nobility. She took off the cashmere coat, and Liu Lihua took it from her with both hands.
Shen Yurong saw Rong Shu.
Rong Shu snapped out of her daze, stepped forward, and called out, "Madam Sheng."
She had called her "Mom" in private before, and she said coldly, "It's fine in front of outsiders, but don't call me 'Mom' in private. I haven't acknowledged you as my daughter-in-law yet."
At this time.
Sheng Tingchen came out of the restaurant and saw Shen Yurong. "Mom, what brings you here?"
Shen Yurong said, "You go ahead and do your work. I want to say a few words to her."
Sheng Tingchen didn't say much and went upstairs first.
Shen Yurong sat on the sofa.
Rong Shu stood in front of her, quietly waiting for Shen Yurong's reprimand.
Shen Yurong stared coldly at her protruding belly and said, "Although you are pregnant with Tingchen's child, and the old lady does care about this great-granddaughter, that is not a reason for you to act arrogantly here."
Rong Shu listened silently with her eyes lowered, knowing without a doubt that it was Liu Lihua who had complained.
"Look at yourself from head to toe, how are you worthy of Tingchen? Can't you even behave yourself?" He said this in a very harsh tone, making no attempt to hide his anger and disgust.
It's really getting more and more annoying. She never imagined that her son would marry such a woman and have a child.
If the old lady hadn't cared so much about this granddaughter, she would never have agreed to keep the child.
Rong Shu clenched her fingers tightly, lowered her head and did not utter a single word of rebuttal.
Standing to the side, Liu Lihua fanned the flames, saying, "She probably thinks she can gain status through her son, and she even dares to talk back to the young master."
Shen Yurong's face darkened as she glared at Rong Shu. "You dare to challenge me!"
Wu Fang brought over tea and snacks, saying, "Madam, please calm down. Don't let such an ungrateful person upset you and ruin your health."
"Rong Shu, I'm warning you, if you cause any more trouble and have the child, you're out!"
"..."
Rong Shu finally raised her eyes, her gaze swirling with emotion. "I truly cannot bear the position of the young mistress of the Sheng family... Ah!"
Before she could even utter a rebuttal, Shen Yurong picked up the cup and splashed the tea directly onto her face.
Sheng Tingchen happened to see this scene when he came downstairs.
