Chapter 522 All he's good for is giving me attitude.
Eat a good breakfast.
Today is Monday.
Rong Shu was going to the company, and she thought that if Mei Mei didn't want to stay at home, she would take Mei Mei to the company. Since Sheng Tingchen was here, she could just leave her with him.
Logically speaking, he should have a lot to deal with both domestically and internationally right now, and she didn't know how long he would stay here. She didn't ask him much during the meal.
After changing her clothes and coming out of the bedroom, Meimei was playing with the two little ones. Sheng Tingchen was sitting on the sofa next to her. Perhaps because Meimei was there, the man's aura was calm at the moment, and the two little ones were not so afraid of him.
"Meimei, Mommy's going to work now."
Meimei and Sheng Tingchen turned to look at her at the same time. The man's gaze swept over her. She was wearing a blue cotton dress with a thin belt around her waist. Her abdomen was still flat as before. She had a low ponytail, no makeup, and her casual and comfortable outfit was completely different from her previous sophisticated and capable female style.
How could Rong Shu not notice that the man was observing her? She could only try her best to calm herself down and ignore his gaze.
Look at Meimei walking towards us.
"Mom, can I take the day off today?"
Rong Shu stepped forward and gently rubbed her little face, saying, "It's Monday today. Mommy has a meeting and can't take the day off, so Daddy will stay with you."
Meimei didn't insist, "Then Dad and I will wait for Mom to come home from get off work."
Rong Shu hummed in agreement, turned around and walked towards the entrance. As she was changing her shoes, she heard a noise behind her, turned around and saw the man walking towards her.
"What's up?"
Sheng Tingchen: "I'll take you to the company."
Rong Shu paused for a moment, then said, "No need, it's not far."
Meimei ran over and said, "Mom, let Dad take you to work."
Before Rong Shu could speak.
Sheng Tingchen said to Meimei, "Be good by yourself."
"Okay, Meimei will wait for Daddy to come back."
Sheng Tingchen withdrew his gaze, the tenderness in his eyes fading, and looked at Rong Shu, "Let's go!"
Rong Shu didn't say anything more, said goodbye to Mei Mei, and left the room.
Waiting for the elevator to go downstairs.
The two remained silent until they left the apartment building.
At this time.
A middle-aged woman walked towards them, chatting with her friend. When she turned around, she saw Rong Shu and then looked at the man beside her, a look of surprise in her eyes.
She walked straight up to him and said, "Young lady, why didn't you go to work with your boyfriend today?"
Rong Shu suddenly felt exhausted.
This auntie was the mother of a resident who lived downstairs. When she moved in before, she met her in the elevator. This auntie seemed to be a very sociable person, and she immediately started chatting with her. She responded politely.
I encountered it a couple more times after that.
The aunt then introduced her son to her, saying that he was a senior executive at a large company with an annual salary of one million. She said that her son was currently on a business trip abroad and that they would meet when he returned. Rong Shu immediately refused.
But the aunt didn't give up at all. She would often knock on the door to deliver things, as if she was trying to find out if there was a man living in her house. It wasn't until Jiang Huaixu came over and saw the two of them going to and from get off work together from time to time, that she stopped knocking on the door again one evening and saw that Jiang Huaixu was there.
At the time, she misunderstood, and Rong Shu naturally didn't want to explain further.
Right now, she wasn't really interested in talking to the woman, so she just smiled and walked straight ahead. But after taking only two steps, she heard a man's voice behind her, "Excuse me, ma'am, who did you say her boyfriend is?"
Upon hearing this...
Rong Shu suddenly stopped and turned to look at the man standing there.
Hearing his question, the aunt glanced at Rong Shu's eager-to-leave appearance and a hint of disdain in her eyes. "He's the man who used to go to and from get off work with her. He's quite handsome."
"She admitted that he was her boyfriend?" Sheng Tingchen continued to press, his deep, handsome face revealing no emotion.
Rong Shu stared at him, wondering what he was up to.
"They live together, so how can they not be boyfriend and girlfriend? They have a great relationship."
Rong Shu had witnessed firsthand how someone could actually spread rumors to her face.
Sheng Tingchen's expression remained indifferent. "So, she didn't admit to you that he was her boyfriend?"
The aunt raised her voice, "Does this even need to be admitted? If he's not your boyfriend, why are you living together?"
Sheng Tingchen didn't press further, and looked up at Rong Shu, who stood there silently with a grim expression.
The aunt also looked at Rong Shu, her expression as if she were waiting to watch a show.
At this moment, residents passing by all looked over, especially at Sheng Tingchen's temperament, figure and appearance. No matter the age or gender, they couldn't help but take a second look at him. However, the man's aura was too distant and cold.
A displeased male voice rang out, "Have you gone mute? Weren't you so capable? Turns out, anyone can bully you."
Rong Shu's face darkened upon hearing the man's words.
The aunt was also confused when she heard this. She had been expecting him to get angry and question her on the spot. She was already dissatisfied with her repeated rejections of her kindness. What was so great about being pretty? Her son was a social elite. He was not unworthy of her at all.
Having lived for so many decades, she's seen it all and knows everything. It's obvious that Rong Shu is cheating, and the man in front of her is the real boyfriend.
She's definitely not a good person; how dare she look down on her son?
However, given the current situation, Rong Shu's reaction clearly didn't seem like someone who was caught red-handed and terrified.
Rong Shu glanced at the man, slung her handbag over her shoulder, turned around, and strode away.
Sheng Tingchen strode forward, grasped the woman's hand, and Rong Shu, still angry, struggled and shouted, "Sheng Tingchen, let go!"
Sheng Tingchen gripped her wrist tightly, showing no sign of letting go. He stared intently at her, his gaze seeming to pierce through her. "You only have the guts to yell at me?! You don't have the guts to yell at others."
Rong Shu looked up at him, her chest heaving with anger. Suppressing her emotions, she said, "Sheng Tingchen, I don't want to argue with you."
As the crowd grew larger, she decided she didn't want to stay there any longer.
"If you're not going to argue with me, then go and explain clearly what your relationship with that man is."
Rong Shu looked up at the man and said, "What do I have to explain? People have mouths, and I can't just shut her up with tape if she spreads rumors."
Upon hearing this, the aunt who had spread the rumor immediately turned pale.
Sheng Tingchen scoffed, "Rong Shu, all you're good for is giving me attitude."
Rong Shu tried her best to pull her hand back.
"Xiao Shu".
Jiang Huaixu's voice came through.
Rong Shu paused, turning her head to look at Jiang Huaixu, who was striding towards them. Sheng Tingchen also looked at him.
People around also looked at the situation, their expressions varying.
The aunt who had just spread the rumors was completely confused. It didn't look like a scene of catching someone cheating. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to turn around and leave. The man in front of her looked like someone who was not to be trifled with, but she couldn't help but stay and see what was going on between the two men and the woman.
