Chapter 54 Sheng Tingchen gave her his only chance
Rong Shu received photos and videos of Xiao Meijing's full moon celebration from Sheng Tingze.
"Little Meijing grabbed the safety lock you gave her and smiled so happily. The little one definitely knows that it was prepared by her mother."
Looking at the child laughing happily, Rong Shu couldn't help but smile. She had now calmed down and accepted the situation.
She wants to watch her child grow up, even if she can't be there for her.
Looking at the little one in the photo, Rong Shu could tell that she was being taken very well and that the Sheng family really liked her.
"She's a clever little girl."
"Needless to say, your child will definitely be smart."
"..."
this day.
Rong Shu suddenly received a call from Sheng Tingchen, "I have to go on a business trip for a few days. Can you come and take care of the child?"
Hearing what the man said.
Rong Shu froze on the spot. She thought he was talking to her about the divorce, but there were still three days left in the cooling-off period.
Unexpectedly, he offered to let her go back to take care of the child, and she didn't respond for a long time.
What exactly does he mean by that?
Is this giving her a way out?
They're getting a divorce soon.
Sheng Tingchen is always decisive and resolute in his actions, and he never goes back on his word. Moreover, given how much he dislikes himself, it's absolutely impossible that it's because he doesn't want a divorce.
The only possibility is to let her go back for the sake of the child.
Rong Shu gripped her phone tightly.
The phone went silent.
Sheng Tingchen awaited her reply.
Time ticked by, tormenting Rong Shu, as if a boulder was pressing on her heart, making it hard for her to breathe.
at last.
She said, "I can't take care of the child, so you take good care of her."
She tried her best to control herself and prevent her emotions from getting out of control.
She knew this was the only chance Sheng Tingchen was giving her.
The words fell.
The person on the other end didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.
Listening to the dial tone coming from the phone.
Rong Shu helplessly put down her phone.
The tension finally broke; her nose stung, her eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Pei Lanhua came in with fruit and saw Rong Shu's red and swollen eyes from crying.
Pei Lanhua was startled and quickly went over to Rong Shu, sitting on the edge of the bed. She put down the plate she was holding, took out a tissue, and hugged Rong Shu, asking anxiously, "What happened? What's wrong?"
Rong Shu buried her face in Pei Lanhua's shoulder and burst into tears.
Pei Lanhua felt a pang of sadness upon hearing this, and patted her back with both hands, saying, "If you want to cry, then cry. You'll feel better after you've cried."
Rong Qingwen stood at the door, looking at his daughter, his eyes reddening. He silently turned and left.
I don't know how much time passed.
Rong Shu gradually calmed down, cried herself to sleep, and fell asleep on the bed.
Pei Lanhua slowed her pace as she left the bedroom, closed the door, and wiped her eyes.
Rong Qingwen saw her and asked, "Because of the child?"
Pei Lanhua said, "Sheng Tingchen just called her. I don't know what he said, but it was definitely about the child."
They all knew that Xiao Shu had been feeling very upset lately, but she didn't want them to worry, so she hadn't shown it to them.
The reason I couldn't control my emotions today must be because Sheng Tingchen talked about the children.
Rong Qingwen's face darkened. "It's all my fault as a father."
Pei Lanhua comforted her, "Alright, don't blame yourself. Just don't say anything careless in front of Xiaoshu, or she'll feel even worse."
"Let's stay with her and everything will be alright."
Rong Qingwen nodded.
The cooling-off period ended on that day.
Rong Shu did not receive a call from Sheng Tingchen, and she could not get through to him either. Considering that he had said he was going on a business trip, it seemed that he really was.
She sent him a message, but he didn't reply.
Now we can only wait for him to come back first, but we don't know how long his business trip will last.
She called Sheng Tingze to ask about the child's condition.
He now only knows news about his child through Sheng Tingze.
Sheng Tingze's company is also very busy at the beginning of the year. He said, "I'll go back and take a look tonight."
"it is good."
That evening, I received a call from Sheng Tingze, who said, "My cousin went on a business trip and took the child with him."
Rong Shu asked in surprise, "Taking the child on a business trip?"
"Yes, it's hard to soothe Xiaomei when she cries. Even my second aunt and the others can't calm her down. She's very attached to her father, so he took her on a business trip and we don't know when he'll be back."
Rong Shu never expected Sheng Tingchen to be so indulgent towards the child, nor did she expect him to love her so much.
At this moment, she felt an indescribable mix of emotions.
"As long as the child is alright, that's all that matters."
"Don't worry about Xiao Meijing, she's the Sheng family's darling now, she'll be taken very good care of."
Rong Shu hummed in agreement.
The two talked for a while and then hung up the phone.
Beijing was still cold in March.
Pei Lanhua began preparing Rong Shu's luggage for her trip abroad.
Jiang Huaixu has already confirmed with her that the visa has been processed and everything is arranged for her accommodation. Her flight is at 1 p.m. on the 10th.
Under the careful care of Rong Shu for more than a month, she has recovered very well and has not left the house even once since she was discharged from the hospital.
The only way to see the scenery outside is through the window.
It's making me anxious.
A few more days passed.
Sheng Tingchen still hasn't contacted her; it seems he hasn't returned yet.
Rong Qingwen also asked her how the divorce was going.
Rong Shu answered truthfully.
"Then let's wait a little longer."
Sheng Tingchen certainly didn't mean to delay; he probably had work to do.
If there isn't enough time...
She had no choice but to ask a lawyer to handle it.
It was clear that Rong Shu was about to go to America.
Song Yan called on everyone in the group to get together at Rong's house. Pei Lanhua is not allowing Rong Shu to go out freely now, so they can only have meals at her house.
Set a time for Saturday night.
People in the group responded enthusiastically.
Saturday morning.
Pei Lanhua and Rong Qingwen went to the mall to buy groceries to prepare.
Pei Yu worked overtime today to discuss cooperation with Sheng Tingze, and the two returned to the Rong family together around 5 p.m.
Jiang Huaixu, Song Yan, and Qi Yanchao met downstairs.
Qi Yanchao couldn't help but gossip with Jiang Huaixu when he saw him, "Let me tell you, I heard that An Qingyue is breaking up with Sheng Tingchen."
Song Yan rolled her eyes at him. "You care about her so much, could it be that you have a crush on her?"
Qi Yanchao chuckled, "How could my taste be worse than your senior's?"
"That's a world of difference."
Qi Yanchao wanted to refute.
"Brother Huaixu!"
Upon hearing Sheng Tingze's voice, the group turned around.
Sheng Tingze stepped forward, "Brother Yanchao, Sister Yan."
The group greeted each other.
They then walked together into the apartment building.
