Chapter 298 A Devoted Person
Li Chenhe chuckled, "You're so indifferent to your sister's affairs. How come when President Su was at the mercy of the An family, he had to rely on Madam An and his own sister? I heard that President Su even angered his mother to the point of hospitalization. He's really ruthless. He's so cruel to his own family. We really can't compare to his methods, haha."
Li Chenhe had naturally investigated the situation of Su Qingzhi and the An family.
His words were practically a direct statement that Su Qingzhi was nothing more than a dog of the An family before, who rose to power through women, and now he turns his back on them, a heartless and ungrateful wretch.
Su Qingzhi's handsome face remained calm, without the slightest emotional fluctuation in his eyes. He thanked the maid who poured the tea.
Sheng Tingchen glanced at him sideways.
Li Chenhe reached out and stroked a Blue Bay Wolfdog squatting nearby, saying meaningfully, "It's a pity that my wolfdog suddenly went berserk and bit people a couple of days ago. I killed it. You can't keep a dog that bites people."
Everyone could understand what Li Chenhe meant by those words.
Su Qingzhi sipped her tea, her expression indifferent.
Sheng Tingchen said slowly, "I can tell you really don't have any skills."
With just one sentence, Li Chenhe's face stiffened.
Sitting opposite Sheng Tingchen, Qin Zhan twirled the Buddhist prayer beads in his hand with his thumb, remaining silent as an outsider.
The atmosphere was momentarily subdued.
Xi Jinchuan hurriedly said, "It just so happens that Dobi just gave birth. Chen He, if you want, you can send the baby over when it's a little older."
Li Chenhe composed himself, a stiff smile curving his lips, and said, "Okay."
"dad."
Meimei's cheerful voice came through, livening up the tense atmosphere.
Sheng Tingchen reached out and supported Meimei's back. When Meimei saw Su Qingzhi, she called out, "Uncle Qingzhi."
Su Qingzhi looked at Meimei, smiled, and said softly, "Meimei, hello."
Meimei looked at her father and asked, "Daddy, where's Mommy?"
Mei Mei's sudden remark caused a stir among those present, except for Fu Xingzhou, Su Qingzhi, and Sheng Tingyu, who remained calm. The other two looked at Sheng Tingchen with surprise.
Sheng Tingchen asked, "Why are you looking for Mom?"
Meimei said, "I want my mom to play puzzles with me."
The child is here again today.
Therefore, Xi Mingshan prepared a lot of toys suitable for children to play with.
Sheng Tingchen had someone take Meimei to find Rong Shu.
After Meimei left.
Xi Jinchuan snapped out of his daze and said, "You're really fast! You've already made someone Meimei's stepmother so quickly."
Sheng Tingchen looked at him and said, "If we don't hurry, we can't let her be coveted by others forever."
Xi Jinchuan met the man's gaze, chuckled, and said, "I haven't done anything yet, so don't be so wary of me."
Sheng Tingchen: "Of course I'm not wary of you."
Hearing the veiled meaning in his words, Xi Jinchuan raised an eyebrow and asked, "So, who are you wary of?"
Sheng Tingchen smiled but remained silent.
As Meimei pulled Rong Shu toward this direction, she saw Su Qingzhi. She hadn't expected him to be here today.
Su Qingzhi saw her, nodded slightly, and smiled.
Rong Shu subtly withdrew her gaze, ignoring Su Qingzhi's greeting.
Li Chenhe and Qin Zhan then noticed Rong Shu.
The moment Li Chenhe saw Rong Shu, he was immediately struck by her beauty. She looked familiar, and he quickly realized that she was the anchorwoman from the financial television station. Her stunning appearance at the financial summit had caused quite a stir, and she had even been involved in a scandal afterward.
No wonder Sheng Tingchen fell in love with someone else so quickly.
Her beauty and temperament surpass An Qingyue's. Most importantly, An Qingyue is merely a pampered vase, while Evelynn not only has a pretty face but also great abilities.
Meimei dragged Rongshu to play with a jigsaw puzzle.
noon.
Lunch is ready.
Today's ingredients were all air-freighted back from all over the world yesterday and are prepared by a five-star chef.
Each person took the dishes they wanted and sat down at the table to eat.
Sheng Tingchen picked up some food, placed the plate in front of Meimei, and poured a glass of white wine for Rong Shu, saying, "Try the Grand Cru white wine from Château Le Havre."
Rong Shu picked up the wine glass, took a sniff, and smelled a rich and elegant aroma. She took a small sip and was satisfied with the taste and flavor. It was indeed a wine worth millions.
"How does it taste?"
"not bad."
Sheng Tingchen said, "If you like it, I'll have someone order a batch tomorrow."
Rong Shu glanced at the man but said nothing.
In their interactions, Sheng Tingchen displayed a doting and humble attitude.
Li Anna and the others never expected that Evelynn was actually Sheng Tingchen's person. No wonder she was so arrogant and disdainful of everyone. Cheng Xin also knew her.
To be able to get close to Sheng Tingchen, one must truly have skill and cunning.
Li Anna stared intently in Rong Shu's direction, her eyes filled with undisguised jealousy. Lu Xue spoke up, "Don't be so blatant."
Li Anna withdrew her gaze and looked at Lu Xue, saying, "I haven't heard of any other woman around Sheng Tingchen. Do you know when they got together?"
Sheng Tingchen had never been like this when he was with An Qingyue before. He was the aloof and controlling ruler, a cold-blooded monarch for whom only women were infatuated.
But what she saw was Evelynn's cold indifference towards him, completely exceeding her understanding of Sheng Tingchen.
It seems now that there's no future for Sheng Tingchen and An Qingyue.
Lu Xue picked up her wine glass, took a sip of red wine, and then slowly said, "I have only been working at Yunshan for a short time and do not know much about President Sheng's private affairs."
Anna Li suddenly became extremely angry.
"However, Evelynn served as the investment director at Rong En and was highly valued by Jiang Huaixu."
Li Anna couldn't believe that Sheng Tingchen would keep a core executive from a competing company by his side. Was he really not afraid of his company's secrets being leaked?
This woman must be quite capable to be appointed as an investment director.
"I heard there was a major accident at Rong En's annual meeting. Jiang Huaixu was injured while saving people. Apparently, he's Rong En's investment director. Could it be because of Evelynn?"
Lu Xue hummed in agreement.
Li Anna was even more disdainful, "I think Evelynn and Jiang Huaixu's relationship is probably not that simple. This woman is quite formidable."
Lu Xue did not respond to Li Anna's words.
After lunch.
Xi Jinchuan invited Sheng Tingchen to play cards.
"No, you guys have fun."
Looking at him, Xi Jinchuan teased, "If I didn't know better, I'd think you were henpecked. You two have so much time to be together, but you have to pick this time to show off your love here."
Rong Shu listened to Xi Jinchuan's words without showing any expression.
Sheng Tingchen looked down at Rong Shu and said, "Let's play two rounds. If you win, it's yours; if you lose, it's on me."
Rong Shu said, "No, you go ahead and play!"
Sheng Tingchen said, "Okay, then you stay with Meimei."
"..."
Sheng Tingchen was gentle with Rong Shu, his deep eyes filled with doting affection, as if his eyes could only hold her presence. Anyone who looked at him would think he was a devoted person.
