After eight years of coldness, you're asking for a divorce? I'm signing the papers, what&#

Rong Shu didn't know how to answer for a moment. She looked at her mother with a beautiful expression. This time she was very insistent and did not let her mother evade the question. She wanted her mother to answer her.

After carefully putting away the amulet, Rong Shu took Mei Mei's hand and walked towards the sofa, saying, "It's for protection."

"Is that to protect Daddy's safety? Is it for Daddy?" Meimei's eyes sparkled as she spoke.

Rong Shu: "Dad doesn't need it anymore."

Meimei: "Why doesn't Daddy need it anymore?"

Rong Shu: "Because Dad is safe now."

Meimei: "But it has Daddy's name on it, why won't Mommy give it to Daddy?"

Rong Shu said helplessly, "Then Mom will give it to him when Dad is done with his work."

Meimei's firm convictions are not so easily fooled.

Meimei happily replied, "Okay."

Rong Shu: "Then Meimei shouldn't tell Daddy yet."

Meimei smiled, her eyes narrowing, "Is this a surprise for Daddy?"

Rong Shu smiled gently but did not answer.

Meimei said with a grin, "Then Meimei won't tell Daddy."

Rong Shu walked to the other side of the bedside table, took out calcium tablets from the drawer, poured out two tablets, and handed them to Mei Mei to eat.

After coaxing Meimei to sleep.

Rong Shu looked at the lucky bag in her hand and thought that it would be better to send it to the Taoist temple. Why should she send it to Sheng Tingchen and make a fool of herself?

She opened the cabinet and put the lucky bag back.

The next day.

Rong Shu had just dropped Mei Mei off at school when she received a call from Jiang Huaixu, asking if she wanted to attend an academic exchange event at Peking University.

Although you need to stay home to recuperate, you should still go out for walks as much as your body allows.

Rong Shu didn't refuse. She was really bored staying at home all day and couldn't stand it. But if she said she wanted to go to work, Pei Lanhua would definitely not agree. She didn't want to fall behind in her work and studies, so she decided to do something else.

It will start at 2 PM today.

After entering the classroom, Meimei immediately took out her phone and watch and called her father.

Sheng Tingchen answered the phone, "Meimei, have you arrived at school yet?"

Meimei said, "My mom just dropped me off at school."

"Hmm, what's up with calling Dad?"

Meimei covered her mouth with her hand and whispered, "Daddy, Mommy has a surprise for you!"

She always keeps her word, but this time she just wanted to secretly tell her father what the surprise was.

Upon hearing Meimei's words, Sheng Tingchen remained silent for a moment before asking, "What surprise?"

Meimei said with a grin, "I won't tell Daddy."

Sheng Tingchen coaxed, "Tell Dad what it is, and Dad will pretend he doesn't know."

In the end, Meimei didn't say anything. She had promised her mother, and since she hadn't kept her promise, she couldn't tell her father what it was.

Sheng Tingchen didn't ask any further questions. "Alright then, Meimei, study hard at school."

"Okay, goodbye Dad."

"Okay, goodbye, baby."

Sheng Tingchen put down his phone, his gentle expression softening. His fingers tapped on the table, his dark eyes fixed intently on a certain spot.

A woman with such a cold and hard heart would rather stay far away from him now, so what surprises could she possibly give him?

But Meimei wouldn't lie or deceive him casually.

He suddenly stood up, took a step, then abruptly stopped, and finally sat back down in the swivel chair.

Buzz!

His phone vibrated again. He picked it up, glanced at the caller ID, paused for a few seconds, his breathing gradually calming down, then pressed the answer button and held it to his ear, saying, "Hello!"

It was Su Qingzhi calling.

His calls were mainly about work. As for his relationship with Xiaoshu, he didn't plan to ask any further questions; there was nothing he could do about it.

Yesterday, he asked his father about Xiao Shu's recent situation and learned that Xiao Shu was pregnant. No wonder she looked thinner. Last night, he really wanted to rush up to Sheng Tingchen and beat him up.

Since Xiao Shu didn't intend to tell Sheng Tingchen, he could only respect her wishes.

Now, when he talks to Sheng Tingchen on the phone, he can only pretend that he knows nothing. But Sheng Tingchen can clearly sense that Su Qingzhi's attitude is not right, and her tone is barbed.

Sheng Tingchen, "What on earth did you take wrong?"

Su Qingzhi: "If I really took the wrong medicine, do you think you'd still be able to talk to me properly?"

Sheng Tingchen frowned. "Just say what you want to say directly, don't beat around the bush."

Su Qingzhi said, "That's it." He didn't want to say another word to him and hung up the phone directly.

Sheng Tingchen's face darkened as he heard the phone call end.

He looked extremely annoyed. Suddenly, he picked up his phone, opened Rong Shu's number, and dialed it directly. But after only two seconds of dialing, he immediately hung up and threw the phone aside.

Rong Shu returned home and told Pei Lanhua that she was practically a national treasure at home now.

Pei Lanhua didn't stop her. It wasn't a big deal for her to audit classes and learn something. The most important thing was that she seemed to be in good spirits lately.

After lunch.

After Rong Shu finished getting ready, she was almost ready to leave. Before leaving, Pei Lanhua asked her to take some freshly made snacks with her, specifically to give some to Jiang Huaixu.

"The supplements he sent last time seemed to have good effects. If he's not too busy, he should invite Huaixu over for meals more often," Pei Lanhua instructed.

Rong Shu reached out and took it. "Okay, I know. I'm going out."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Rong Shu got into the car.

Just as I was about to call Jiang Huaixu, I saw a two-second missed call, with no sound notification from my phone.

She stared at the missed call, her fingers tightening involuntarily. Since Meimei had promised her, she probably wouldn't tell Sheng Tingchen, but she still wasn't sure.

As for the two seconds of missed calls, she couldn't be sure what Sheng Tingchen meant; it might have been a mistake.

She stopped paying attention.

I called Jiang Huaixu.

1:40.

Rong Shu arrived at Peking University on time. As she got out of the car and took out her phone to call Jiang Huaixu, she heard a voice behind her say, "Xiao Shu, over here."

Rong Shu turned around, put down her phone, and stepped forward.

After a few brief pleasantries.

Let's go!

The two walked towards the teaching building.

Today's exchange event has attracted many industry leaders, but the most unique and outstanding one is Jiang Huaixu.

Many people recognized Rong Shu and exchanged a few words with her. She was there to listen and learn without offering any opinions.

This seminar will last for three days.

That's how the day went.

Rong Shu took many notes, recording the questions, which she could discuss with Jiang Huaixu privately.

A fulfilling day passed in the blink of an eye, but she missed Meimei's dismissal time. She asked Du Zheng to drive to pick Meimei up and bring her to Peking University ahead of time.
