Chapter 319 One USB drive
Sheng Tingchen smiled gently and said, "You'll see soon enough, Meimei."
Rong Shu looked up and stared at him.
Sheng Tingchen's gaze fell on her, and he said, "Take Meimei upstairs to change her clothes first. We've prepared some New Year's outfits."
Meimei suddenly realized, grabbed her mother's hand, and said excitedly, "Mom, Dad has prepared new clothes for us. Let's go upstairs and change!"
Rong Shu accompanied Mei Mei upstairs and helped her change into a new outfit—a festive Ming-style Hanfu with delicate auspicious cloud patterns embroidered on the collar, making Mei Mei even more charming and adorable.
The New Year's Eve dinner tonight.
There were only the three of them at the table. It lacked the usual hustle and bustle of a large group, but instead exuded a rare tranquility and warmth.
Meimei sat between the two, her eyes crinkling with delight as she ate, her voice filled with anticipation: "From now on, Meimei wants to celebrate the New Year with Mommy and Daddy every year!"
After having New Year's Eve dinner.
Sheng Tingchen took out the prepared gift and handed it to Rong Shu, saying, "Open it and take a look."
Rong Shu glanced at it and then heard Mei Mei urge, "Mom, open it quickly, Mei Mei wants to see it too."
Rong Shu looked at her daughter, unpacked the package, opened the box, and found only a USB flash drive inside.
Meimei leaned closer, looking up at him with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Daddy, what is this?"
Sheng Tingchen said, "We'll have to wait for Mom to see for herself."
"Will Mom like it?"
"Mom will like it."
Rong Shu held the USB drive, her fingertips pausing slightly, but she didn't speak.
"..."
after that.
Sheng Tingchen accompanied Meimei as they set off fireworks in the courtyard.
Brilliant fireworks burst in the dark night sky, their dazzling light illuminating Meimei's beautiful face, accompanied by her clear and excited cheers.
At this moment, the evening breeze is gentle, fireworks fill the sky, and everything seems exceptionally beautiful.
Rong Shu held her phone, recording Mei Mei's growth moments over the New Year.
After the fireworks were set off.
Go back inside the house.
Meimei played the violin for her parents and even had her father play the piano for her mother.
Sheng Tingchen complied with all of Meimei's requests.
As the gentle, melodious music flowed from the man's fingertips, Rong Shu was surprised to find that Sheng Tingchen played the piano so well.
Bright lights shone on the man, giving him a noble and gentle glow.
Meimei danced while holding her mother's hand.
The whole room echoed with Meimei's carefree laughter.
Sheng Tingchen turned his head and his gaze fell on the mother and daughter. Rong Shu held Mei Mei's little hand and watched her daughter spin around happily, radiating a maternal glow.
To onlookers, it was such a happy and harmonious family.
at the same time.
The Rong family.
Su Qingzhi ate New Year's Eve dinner at the Rong family's house.
Pei Lanhua didn't refuse him after all and agreed to let Su Qingzhi come to her home for New Year's Eve dinner. However, despite his best efforts to lower his posture, he still seemed out of place and always looked like an outsider.
Therefore, Su Qingzhi did not stay any longer.
Before leaving.
Su Qingzhi warned Pei Yu, "Be careful of Du Gang; there might be problems with the project you're delivering after the New Year."
Pei Yu frowned. He had known about Du Gang's ulterior motives for a long time, but Su Qingzhi seemed to have an exceptional understanding of the internal situation of Boheng.
"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Su."
Su Qingzhi didn't say anything more, and left the Rong family after saying goodbye to her father.
Rong Qingwen saw Su Qingzhi off, and looking at his lonely figure, he felt an indescribable sadness.
Su Qingzhi drove away from the villa.
A white car was parked outside the villa gate, and people came out.
He took out his phone and made a call.
"Madam, Mr. Su has left."
During this time, Su Jinxi had been having Su Qingzhi's movements tracked, and she was very uncomfortable knowing that he had gone to the Rong family tonight.
Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, and not only is he not coming back, but he hasn't even sent her a New Year's text message.
Seeing how close he is to Rong Qingwen now, she regrets in her heart that she shouldn't have let the father and son meet. Now that he is indifferent to his own mother, the thought of him trying to please Pei Lanhua makes her even angrier.
She originally wanted Pei Lanhua's ex-husband to disgust her, but his son was very wary of her.
This year has been an absolutely terrible year for her.
Then.
She called Rong Qingwen directly, but the call went unanswered; he had been blocked. Without a doubt, it must be Pei Lanhua.
She changed her phone number.
Rong Qingwen was quite surprised to receive the call.
"Qingwen, did Qingzhi have New Year's Eve dinner at your house tonight?"
"Yeah, they just left. What's up?"
"Leaving so soon? You didn't keep him a little longer."
Rong Qingwen hesitated, unsure how to explain, "He suddenly had something to take care of."
How could Su Jinxi not detect that he was lying? It seems that Pei Lanhua's side does not welcome Qingzhi. What qualifications does she have?
Su Jinxi didn't ask any more questions, and said earnestly, "I hope Qingwen can persuade Qingzhi. After all, it's almost Chinese New Year, and I also want Qingzhi to come back to my side for the New Year. I did make a mistake before, and I want to have a good talk with him."
Just as Rong Qingwen was about to say something, he heard Pei Lanhua's voice behind him ask, "Who are you talking to on the phone?"
"..."
Until 9 p.m.
Meimei finally got tired of playing, and Sheng Tingchen coaxed her upstairs to sleep.
Rong Shu sat in the living room, replying to messages in the group chat and constantly sending and receiving red envelopes.
Jiang Huaixu sent her a message: "I'm going to visit Master Fu on the first few days of the month."
Rong Shu said: I plan to go to the Fu family on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
Jiang Huaixu said: Sure, please give my regards to Elder Fu. I'm afraid it's inconvenient for me.
Rong Shu said: Professor, you should get some rest. Professor Fu will definitely understand.
Rong Shu and Jiang Huaixu chatted, and the topic of Su Qingzhi came up.
Rong Shu shared her doubts with Jiang Huaixu and briefly recounted what had happened during this period.
Upon seeing Rong Shu's message, Jiang Huaixu was also surprised. He immediately made a phone call, "You mean, after that gathering, Su Qingzhi took action against the Li family?"
He knew that Su Qingzhi was behind the trouble at the Li family's place, but he never expected that the reason was related to Xiao Shu.
What reason did he have to do this?
Rong Shu hummed in agreement.
Jiang Huai asked, "This is indeed very unusual. Did Sheng Tingchen say anything?"
Rong Shu said, "No."
Sheng Tingchen tacitly approved of Su Qingzhi's behavior, though he certainly knew why he did it.
"I'll need to inquire about the situation after the New Year."
There needs to be a reasonable reason for doing this.
Rong Shu paused for a moment, then said, "Let's talk about it after the New Year!"
"Um."
"When do you have time? Bring Meimei along for a get-together."
"..."
Sheng Tingchen was putting Meimei to sleep when he went downstairs and saw a woman sitting on the living room sofa talking on the phone. He didn't know what she was talking about, but her voice sounded unusually relaxed and cheerful.
"I think...it's more interesting."
Rong Shu was on the phone with the Spring Festival Gala playing on TV. She didn't notice the man coming downstairs until his footsteps approached and Sheng Tingchen appeared and sat down next to her. Only then did she realize what was happening and said, "Professor, it's getting late. You should get some rest."
I hung up the phone.
Rong Shu put down her phone.
