OBS Chapter 189 He had no relatives by his side.
Chapter 189 He had no relatives by his side.
Sheng Tingchen stood there, his dark eyes fixed on the woman's departing figure, the atmosphere around him chillingly oppressive.
On her way back, Rong Shu received a call from Jiang Huaixu. Although it was a holiday, they were both very busy and needed to work.
He had just finished work when he received the news.
Rong Shu then learned about what had happened online that afternoon.
Sheng Tingchen's actions were indeed swift, which showed her his financial resources and methods; he could erase all traces of himself in such a short time.
But who exactly wants to spread this news?
"I hope Sheng Tingchen hasn't given you any trouble!"
Rong Shu had completely calmed down by now and said, "No."
"That's good, but why did you suddenly do this, Xiaoshu?"
Rong Shu took a breath and said, "If you hold onto your anger and don't let it out when you have the chance, you'll only hurt yourself."
She had already phrased it tactfully enough, after all, she still had to consider President Hu's side and couldn't really implicate others.
The two chatted for a few minutes and then hung up.
A day off.
Rong Shu was also busy with her work.
Pei Lanhua had already packed her luggage.
I noticed that she didn't look well.
Rong Shu stepped forward and hugged her, saying, "Mom, it's not like I'm not coming back, don't be like this."
She went there partly to handle her work, and partly to temporarily put her relationship with Sheng Tingchen on hold, hoping to avoid getting entangled in a mess by going abroad.
She will definitely go back to China.
Pei Lanhua reached out and patted her shoulder. "What about Meimei? She's so dependent on and fond of you now. If you leave like this, Meimei will definitely be very sad."
Thinking of Meimei.
Even though she tried her best to remain calm in front of Pei Lanhua, she couldn't help but tear up. She took a deep breath, sat on the edge of the bed, and said, "But I can't do anything about it now."
She didn't know what to do either. She knew that Meimei longed for her mother's love deep down, and that she was in a lot of pain right now.
However, she couldn't continue her marriage with Sheng Tingchen.
They are all mothers.
Pei Lanhua understood her feelings.
Xiao Shu can't get a divorce now, and she doesn't dare to easily acknowledge Mei Mei. Sheng Tingchen really can't feel her pain at all.
"Then go abroad for a while to avoid the situation, but you must come back."
"Yes, I know."
At this time.
Rong Qingwen knocked and entered, asking, "Is everything ready?"
They're going out to eat later.
When Pei Lanhua saw him, she turned her face away and ignored him.
Rong Qingwen looked embarrassed.
When going downstairs.
Pei Lanhua walked ahead carrying the child, clearly indicating that she didn't want to talk to Rong Qingwen.
Rong Shu then belatedly realized that something was wrong with the two of them; it seemed that they had been in this state for some time.
"Dad, what's wrong with you and Mom?"
Rong Qingwen smiled and said, "It's nothing, Dad will handle it, don't worry."
Rong Shu didn't ask any further questions.
Rong Shu drove the family to the restaurant. Today, it wasn't just their family eating together; Pei Lanhua's parents and other close relatives were also there, making it a family reunion dinner.
The restaurant is doing exceptionally well today, with many families coming to dine together.
We arrived at the reserved private room.
They arrived early.
Pei Yu is working overtime today. Since the incident at the company, he hasn't had a proper rest. He's still on his way here.
There are still some people from the Pei family who haven't arrived yet.
Rong Qingwen and Pei Lanhua were waiting outside the restaurant.
Rong Shu was in the private room with Xiao Bao.
At this time.
A Bentley slowly pulled up in the parking lot. As Su Qingzhi got out of the car and walked into the restaurant, she noticed Pei Lanhua and Rong Qingwen standing at the entrance.
He didn't pay much attention and walked straight past the two people into the building.
Rong Qingwen was greeting his elders and there were many people coming and going, so he didn't notice Su Qingzhi.
"Rong Qingwen, why don't you go and take what your uncle is holding?" Pei Lanhua's scolding voice rang out.
Su Qingzhi, who had already entered the hall, suddenly stopped in her tracks.
For an instant.
Suddenly, it felt as if a hand was gripping his nerves tightly, and his feet felt like they were made of lead, rooted to the spot and unable to move.
The voices behind me were getting closer and closer.
He slowly turned to the side, his gaze falling on Rong Qingwen.
Twenty years have passed, and the young father has grown old, with wrinkles on his face and a plump figure that is no longer what it used to be.
When he suddenly laughed, it was as if he was pulled back to his father's face twenty years ago, which was full of loving smiles. Suddenly, his hands hanging at his sides trembled slightly.
Rong Qingwen and the Pei family were chatting happily.
"Qingwen, you're amazing! To have a child in your fifties, you're so lucky! Haha!"
Rong Qingwen laughed heartily, "It's Lanhua who suffered, giving me such a cute son like Xiaobao."
"Then you'd better treat her well."
"Of course! If she tells me to go east, I wouldn't dare go west. I'll spend the rest of my life taking care of them, haha."
"..."
Rong Qingwen and the Pei family chatted and laughed, completely unaware of Su Qingzhi standing there.
Su Qingzhi stood frozen in place, her gaze fixed on the departing group, watching the heartwarming scene between Rong Qingwen and her current family.
Although he already knew that his father had remarried and had a new family.
Now they have a son.
He was already used to being alone.
When I witnessed all of this with my own eyes.
A chilling emptiness shot straight from his feet to his heart, as if all the warmth in the world no longer belonged to him.
He stood there for an unknown amount of time when suddenly a dull ache began to throb in his temples, and he quickly reached up to support his head.
A staff member rushed forward, and seeing his pale face, asked with concern, "Sir, are you feeling unwell?"
Followed by.
His body fell to one side.
"teacher!"
When he woke up again.
I was already lying in a hospital bed, surrounded by a pale, pungent smell of disinfectant.
He glanced at the IV drip hanging above his head and knew what had happened; his headache had flared up again.
At this time.
The nurse came in.
Upon seeing the man's handsome face, the young nurse blushed.
Su Qingzhi asked the nurse about the situation.
It turns out that when he fainted, a friend he had arranged to have dinner with that day called him. The restaurant staff answered the phone, and his friend immediately called to arrange for an ambulance and a nurse to take care of him.
The nurse changed his dressing again and then left the ward.
At this time.
A phone vibrated.
He reached for his phone on the bedside table, saw the caller ID—it was Su Jinxi calling—and frowned before hanging up immediately.
Followed by.
Su Jinxi called again.
He impatiently turned off his phone, leaned against the headboard, closed his eyes, and listened to the empty echoes of footsteps in the corridor. The silence around him made him increasingly uncomfortable.
On a day when families should be reunited, he had no relatives by his side.
