Chapter 26 Embarrassing
Old Madam Sheng didn't stay long. Before leaving, she said a few more words to Rong Shu, clearly telling her to stay there and not to go back to her parents' home so often now that she was married.
Sheng Tingchen went upstairs to his study.
Rong Shu returned to her room, sat on the sofa, and called Pei Lanhua.
Pei Lanhua answered the phone and asked, "Xiao Shu, what time are you coming back today?"
Rong Shu said, "Aunt Pei, I'll be staying here for the time being."
Pei Lanhua paused for a moment, then asked, "What's wrong?"
Rong Shu said, "The old lady told me to stay home and take good care of myself during my pregnancy."
Pei Lanhua instantly understood what she meant, but didn't know what to say.
Are you going to yoga studio today?
"Yes, I'm going. I've made an appointment between six and eight o'clock."
"Okay, then do I need to go earlier? I'll bring you dinner."
"it is good."
I hung up the phone.
Rong Shu glanced at the time; it was just the right time to take a nap and then head out.
Wait until you wake up, then get ready to go out.
They happened to run into a man coming downstairs.
She looked at the man and asked, "Are you going out?"
Sheng Tingchen's indifferent gaze fell on Rong Shu as always, and he asked in a flat tone, "What is it?"
Rong Shu was used to it and no longer had any expectations. "I'm going out too. My car is at home. Can you take me to the subway station?"
Twenty minutes later.
Rong Shu got out of the man's car and took the subway to the city center.
After meeting Pei Lanhua.
Rong Shu ate the dinner she had prepared and chatted with her about the day's events.
Pei Lanhua sighed softly, "Since Old Madam Sheng has already spoken, you can't disobey her. Just stay at home and rest. It's only for the next two months anyway."
Rong Shu hummed in agreement.
"Your dad and I discussed it today, and he said that we should hold the wedding before you go to the United States. We'll set it for New Year's Day, have a simple ceremony, and invite relatives from both sides."
The two got their marriage certificate last week.
They are now a real family.
Rong Shu naturally had no objections, "That's great."
After eating.
After resting for half an hour, I went to the yoga studio.
After the exercise.
Pei Yu came to pick them up and first took Rong Shu back to Repulse Bay. Rong Shu told him to bring her the car tomorrow if he had time.
Pei Yu said, "You're heavily pregnant right now, it's not safe for you to drive. I'll arrange a driver for you to pick you up and drop you off every day."
Pei Lanhua agreed, "Yes, your belly is getting bigger every day, it would be better to arrange a driver."
Rong Shu didn't refuse again; hiring her for just two months was fine.
"Okay, let's have a higher salary and find someone reliable."
Rong Shu got home at nine o'clock.
Sheng Tingchen has not returned yet.
When Liu Lihua and Wu Fang saw her, although they still had some dissatisfaction with her, they were not as harsh as before. They cooked bird's nest for her and brought it to her room.
She washed up, tidied herself up, and lay in bed. Holding her prenatal education materials, she told stories to her baby and talked to her. This was perhaps one of the few days she could spend talking to her child. The thought of her child staying with the Sheng family made her feel a dull ache in her heart.
The little one seemed to be very perceptive of her emotions; whenever her emotions fluctuated, she would kick her.
Around that time.
Rong Shu lay down to rest.
She was in good spirits recently, and Rong Shu slept soundly that night.
Although her belly is big, the little one is very sensible and never makes a fuss at night. She will definitely be a good child in the future.
Sheng Tingchen did not return that night.
He really couldn't stand being under the same roof as her.
However, she no longer wanted to care.
She contacted Song Yan that day to ask about her health. She had originally planned to visit her at the hospital yesterday, but she couldn't make it.
"It's nothing serious. You can be discharged once the IV drip is finished."
That night her stomach ailment flared up quite badly, and she needed to be on an IV drip for two days.
Rong Shu decided to go to the hospital to see her.
Just then, Pei Yu called and found a driver. The driver had just retired from the army last year and could drive a private car without any problem.
Pei Yu gave her his contact information.
Rong Shu immediately contacted the other party, who was currently at Pei Yu's company and needed to drive to Mantang Mansion, which would probably take about an hour.
Contact me half an hour in advance.
She can slowly walk out, just like taking a stroll.
The other party agreed.
Half past ten.
Rong Shu walked to the entrance of the villa.
The car arrived just then.
The car stopped in front of her, and the driver got out and walked towards the passenger seat. He was about 1.8 meters tall, with a buzz cut, regular features, and a straight figure. He looked like a former soldier, exuding masculinity and righteousness.
Rong Shu got into the car.
Du Zheng handed her his information, saying, "Miss Rong, please take a look."
Rong Shu looked at his profile. His name was Du Zheng, he was 28 years old, and he joined the army when he was 18.
Since it was arranged by Pei Yu, there must be no problem.
"How much salary does my brother pay you?"
Du Zhengdao: "Twenty thousand."
Rong Shu said, "You should know that I only need to hire you for now, right?"
"Yes, I know."
"So where do you live now?"
Du Zhengdao: "It takes about forty minutes to drive here from Xinyuan Street."
"Is it a rented apartment?"
"I'm staying with relatives for now, and I'm planning to find a house nearby."
Renting a place around here isn't cheap.
Rong Shu looked at the residential area they passed and said, "I'll give you an extra six thousand yuan. Let's see if we can rent a suitable place around here. Consider it a housing allowance!"
"Thank you, Miss Rong. I will find it as soon as possible."
Du Zheng drove her to the hospital where Song Yan was.
Get out of the car.
Rong Shu walked into the hospital and entered the inpatient department lobby, where she ran into Su Qingzhi.
Su Qingzhi also saw her, they exchanged a glance, and she simply nodded with a smile.
Rong Shu didn't seem to intend to greet them.
She could hardly feel any affection for a brother who had stolen her husband's woman.
Su Qingzhi was the first to step away.
As Rong Shu walked in, she suddenly stopped. Sheng Tingchen strode towards her, carrying a woman in his arms. The girl was clinging to the man's neck and leaning softly against his shoulder.
It seems An Qingyue is ill. Sheng Tingchen didn't come home last night because he was keeping vigil at the hospital.
Su Qingzhi strode up to the two of them. "Let me do it!"
An Qingyue refused.
Sheng Tingchen showed no sign of letting go, saying, "Let's get in the car first!"
Su Qingzhi did not press the matter further.
Sheng Tingchen carried An Qingyue toward the gate, passing Rong Shu without glancing at her, as if she were a complete stranger.
Even though Rong Shu no longer had any expectations, she still felt embarrassed at this moment.
Su Qingzhi noticed the momentary look of helplessness and paleness on her face.
Rong Shu quickly composed herself, sniffed, and walked towards the elevator.
Su Qingzhi stood still, while Rong Shu walked straight past.
He remained silent for a moment.
He strode away.
