Chapter 8: Looking at your sister's photos again.
He assumed Xie Anming had run into someone he knew, so he didn't go up to bother him.
Su Qingzhi strode forward and reached out to help the person up.
But Xie Anming stopped him, saying, "Brother Qing, don't mind her, she deserves it."
Su Qingzhi helped the person up and asked, "Are you alright?"
Rong Shu was in too much pain to speak. She didn't look up at the man in front of her, but shook her head and limped toward the insulated box that had been thrown out.
Su Qingzhi looked at Xie Anming and said, "Didn't you see she's pregnant? This is Tingchen's company. What if something happens?"
Xie Anming looked at Rong Shu's broad-shouldered back and sneered, "She's perfectly fine now. If something really happened, it would be better if she miscarried."
Upon hearing this, Rong Shu froze, her heart suddenly clenching with pain.
For Xie Anming to say something like that, it can only mean that Sheng Tingchen doesn't want the child at all.
Su Qingzhi frowned.
At this time.
A clear and melodious voice rang out, "Brother."
Su Qingzhi was pulled back to his senses and looked up to see An Qingyue running towards him. The girl was wearing a beret, a high-quality wool sweater, a pleated skirt, and white boots on her slender legs. She was youthful, sunny, and beautiful.
The handsome man following behind her had the girl's coat draped over his arm, gazing at her with such doting eyes.
"Why are you running so fast? What if you fall?" Su Qingzhi scolded.
An Qingyue reached out and took Su Qingzhi's arm, saying coquettishly, "I'm not a child, how could I fall down so easily?"
Xie Anming stepped forward and said, "If Miss An falls, our CEO of Shanda will probably have to tear the company down and rebuild it."
An Qingyue blushed slightly and huffed, "Brother An Ming, what did you say?"
Sheng Tingchen walked over and said, "Let's go eat first."
Xie Anming and Su Qingzhi came here to wait for Sheng Tingchen and An Qingyue.
An Qingyue released Su Qingzhi and reached out to hold the hand of the man beside her.
The group walked towards the door.
Then I saw Rong Shu struggling to squat down and lift the thermos.
Sheng Tingchen remained expressionless and indifferent.
An Qingyue glanced at him subconsciously before looking away.
The group walked straight out of the company gate.
The vehicle slowly descended.
The security guard stepped forward and opened the car door.
Sheng Tingchen carefully helped the girl into the car.
The two cars slowly drove away.
Rong Shu turned around awkwardly, carrying the insulated box, and slowly walked towards the elevator.
Back at my workstation.
Rong Shu had no appetite and just sat motionless at her workstation, completely numb. She didn't want to cry or feel wronged. She was a strong-willed person and never wanted to show her vulnerable side.
But right now she really wants to cry and vent.
After lunch, Sheng Tingchen and his group went to the golf course.
Su Qingzhi sat on a chair in the rest area, staring at a pocket watch in her hand. Inside the pocket watch was a photo of a girl who looked to be about ten years old. She was wearing a woven hat, standing on the beach, holding a seashell, and smiling happily.
"Why are you looking at your sister's photos again?" Sheng Tingchen's voice came from behind.
Su Qingzhi closed his pocket watch, put his hand in his pocket, picked up his teacup and took a small sip. "It's nothing."
He didn't know why, but when he thought of the pregnant woman who had been bullied by Xie Anming, he felt a strange, indescribable feeling in his heart.
Sheng Tingchen looked at Su Qingzhi. The two met when they were studying abroad and co-founded a private equity firm.
Having known each other for so many years, Sheng Tingchen always knew that he had a younger sister. He always carried her photo with him, which showed how much he missed her.
Years ago, his mother divorced and took him with her when she married into the An family in Haishi. The An family was a prestigious family in Haishi. Su Qingzhi took his mother's surname. Su Qingzhi was nurtured by Chairman An and is now the CEO of MK Group.
"Now that you're in Beijing, aren't you going to go see her?"
Su Qingzhi shook her head and said, "Seeing her would only add to my sadness. Perhaps she has long forgotten me as her brother."
He was taken away by his mother when she was only nine years old. Now, more than a decade later, he has become a blur in Xiao Shu's heart.
Even if we meet, we'll just be familiar strangers. What's the point of meeting like that?
Don't you want to know what she looks like now?
Su Qingzhi's gaze fell on An Qingyue in the distance, as if she were imagining someone else. She slightly curled her lips and said, "Probably looks like Qingyue. I wonder which rascal will end up getting the better of her."
Sheng Tingchen chuckled and looked at An Qingyue walking towards them, saying, "You can't let Qingyue know that you have a younger sister. If she knew you still care about her so much, she would definitely be jealous."
Su Qingzhi said, "Although I don't object to you dating Qingyue, I definitely won't allow Qingyue to live with you until your problems are resolved."
Sheng Tingchen smiled faintly but remained silent.
"Brother, what are you guys talking about?"
Su Qingzhi smiled and said, "We didn't talk about much."

"Rong Shu, what do you mean? Do you really think you're something special?!"
Zhou Shan threw a stack of documents heavily in front of Rong Shu.
Just now, Zhou Shan, as always, assigned Rong Shu work that wasn't her responsibility, and Rong Shu refused outright.
Rong Shu looked at the angry Zhou Shan and said with a sneer, "Secretary Zhou, if you can't even do this little job well and have to delegate it to others, I think you should just quit as soon as possible."
"..."
The other colleagues in the office, who were watching the commotion, were shocked to hear Rong Shu's words. She really didn't want to work anymore and was just throwing caution to the wind.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Shan was so angry that she raised her hand and stepped forward to slap her.
Rong Shu picked up the water glass on the table and was the first to react, splashing it at Zhou Shan.
Zhou Shan, whose face was splashed with water, froze on the spot for a moment, then screamed, "Rong Shu, you shameless fat slut!"
"What's all the noise about?"
Zhou Mu's voice rang out, and Zhou Shan stopped her lunging forward. Zhou Mu strode forward aggressively, looking at Zhou Shan's disheveled appearance, and asked, "What happened?"
Zhou Shan took a deep breath and said, "I arranged work for Rong Shu, but she refused to do it."
Zhou Mu frowned, a deep displeasure rising in his eyes, and stared at Rong Shu, saying, "What right do you have to act like this here? This is the company, not your home!"
Rong Shu took off her employee badge from around her neck, threw it on the table, and stared coldly at Zhou Mu, saying, "Fine, I quit now!"
talking.
Rong Shu grabbed her bag and the insulated food container and left.
"Rong Shu!"
Zhou Mu's face turned green with anger; he never expected Rong Shu to dare to do such a thing.
Rong Shu took the elevator downstairs and ran into Sheng Tingchen, who was returning to the company. When Sheng Tingchen saw Rong Shu, his face turned cold.
Rong Shu also saw Sheng Tingchen. He had just finished accompanying his girlfriend back to the company. She lowered her eyes and looked away, biting her lip to suppress her emotions. She continued walking forward, passing the man without saying hello, and left directly out of the company gate.
Rong Shu took a taxi back to the villa in Repulse Bay; she was going to pack her luggage and move back home.
Back at the villa.
Rong Shu didn't see the two nannies, so she didn't pay them any mind. She went back to her room, took out her suitcase, and started packing.
After all, I've lived here for more than half a year. I can't move all my things at once, so I'll just bring my essentials and clothes. I'll come back and take everything after I divorce Sheng Tingzhen.
When she finished packing and was about to leave.
Liu Lihua suddenly appeared at the door and saw her dragging her luggage. She said unhappily, "What are you doing? The master is coming back tonight. Where do you think you're going? Hurry up and get ready to prepare dinner for the master."
Sheng Tingchen is coming back.
It's probably because she had a conflict with Zhou Shan today, and Zhou Mu reported it to her, so he's probably coming back to teach her a lesson.
That's perfect, she explained things to him.
She stared at Liu Lihua and said coldly, "Are you the nanny or am I? Should I call the old lady right now and tell her you want to be the master of this place?"
"You...you..."
Liu Lihua's expression changed. Rong Shu, who was previously timid and obedient, was now completely different. How dare she speak to her like that? Was she really not afraid that the young master would kick her out?
"You're utterly unreasonable, you madman," Liu Lihua snorted and turned to leave.
With a bang.
Rong Shu slammed the door shut.
Liu Lihua was startled and immediately called Shen Yurong on her phone in anger.
Rong Shu leaned against the door, tilting her head back and breathing heavily.
A feeling of grievance suddenly welled up inside her, and tears streamed down her face.
That night.
Sheng Tingchen returned to the villa.
Liu Lihua immediately complained to him.
