Chapter 287
Rongshu’s frown deepened.
What was with this tone of a husband questioning his wife?
Hadn’t he set himself straight?
“What does it matter to you where Cheng Huai and I have gone, and why do you need to ask? That’s ridiculous!” Rongshu brushed her mouth off and turned around to leave.
Fu Jingting pulled her arm, “I’m just worried about you, it’s so late ……”
“I don’t need you to worry!” Rong Shu directly pulled her arm out and looked at her coldly, “You didn’t worry about me in the past, and you don’t need to now, well Mr. Fu, it’s late, you go back, I’m going back too.”
With those words, she stopped paying attention to him and turned around and entered the building.
Fu Jingting also did not stay her, and just quietly watched her figure disappear into the building.
When she returned to her flat, Rong Shu took off her shoes and threw away her bag, walking barefoot towards the bathroom.
After showering, she went into her bedroom and prepared to rest.
She should have gone to bed at ten o’clock, but she had been called out by Cheng Huai and was now so sleepy that she couldn’t keep her eyes open.
Yawning, Rongshu walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window and prepared to draw the curtains.
Suddenly, she glanced down and caught a glimpse of the ordinary car still parked on the curb under the building.
In other words, Fu Jingting hadn’t left yet.
Playing a deep love set?
Rongshu sn*ggered, and the next second, without hesitation, she pulled the curtains closed and went back to bed to lie down.
Downstairs, Fu Jingting sat in the driver’s seat and kept looking up at a certain floor of the building.
Seeing the lights on that floor dim, he knew that she had fallen asleep.
Suddenly, Fu Jingting’s mobile phone rang.
He picked it up and looked at it; it was a*sistant Zhang calling.
“What is it?” Fu Jingting turned on the amplification and dropped the phone on the pa*senger seat, then found a box of cigarettes and a lighter from the car box.
a*sistant Zhang replied, “It’s not a big deal, it’s news from the hospital that Gu Manyin has woken up.”
“Hmm.” When Fu Jingting heard this, he didn’t react much, he shook out a cigarette and lit it, putting it into his mouth.
When a*sistant Zhang saw that his attitude was indifferent, he was not much surprised and pushed his gla*ses and said, “In addition, there is another thing, Gu Mangyin has returned home!”
“What?” Fu Jingting paused in his flicking of the cigarette ash, his eyes narrowed, “Gu Man’er?”
“Yes.” a*sistant Zhang nodded his head.
Fu Jingting’s brows knitted up, “Is it really Gu Man’er?”
“Most likely yes, Gu Man’er was the one who approached Gu Yaotian and his wife with their daughter’s necklace, right now Gu Yaotian and his wife are doing a paternity test with Gu Man’er, Gu Man’er didn’t leave, so there is a good chance that she is indeed real.” a*sistant Zhang returned seriously.
Fu Jingting looked grave.
Daughter’s necklace ……
The necklace was in the hands of Rong Shu, how did it get into the hands of someone else?
Could it be a fake?
No, it shouldn’t be. If it was fake, there was no way Gu Yaotian and his wife couldn’t recognize it, after all, it was a gift they gave to their daughter, and no one was more familiar with what her necklace looked like than they were.
What’s more, the daughter’s necklace was made to order, there is only one in the world, and there are no photos out on the internet at all, all that came out was the mother’s necklace that Gu Yaotian released the other day.
And although the daughter’s necklace resembled the mother’s necklace, there were some differences, so it was impossible for the outside world to imitate it.
The only explanation is that that Gu Manlove might be related to Rong Shu.
Maybe Rong Shu gave that necklace to that Gu Man’er and then let Gu Man’er go to Gu Yaotian.
But why would Rongshu do that?
Fu Jingting raised his eyes and took another look at the dark floor, his eyebrows twisted into a Chuan character.
“Mr. Fu? Mr. Fu?” a*sistant Zhang was late in hearing Fu Jingting’s response and couldn’t help but shout twice.
Fu Jingting’s eyes flashed as he returned to his senses, “Check the past identity of that Gu Man’er, especially check if she has any contact with Rong Shu.”
He was worried that Rongshu might have been deceived!
In case that Gu Man’er had any other identity, it would be dangerous for Rong Shu.
“Yes!” Although a*sistant Zhang was curious as to why Mr. Fu wanted to involve Gu Man-Eng and Miss Rong together, he didn’t ask more questions and nodded his head in response.
The phone was hung up, and Fu Jingting put his hand outside the car window, flicked the cigarette ash again, and continued to stare at Rong Shu’s floor.
This was a night of staring.
The next day, Rong Shu packed up and got ready to go to Tiansheng.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Fu Jingting standing at the door.
Fu Jingting was still in the same suit as last night, and with the tiredness on his face and the bruises and blackness under his eyelids, Rong Shu knew that he had stayed up all night last night.
“You stayed in the car all night?” Rongshu asked with a frown.
A bright light flashed under Fu Jingting’s eyes, “You’re following me?”
Otherwise, how else would she have instantly guessed that he had spent the night in the car.
Rongshu skimmed her lips, “You’re thinking too much, I’m not paying attention to you.”
Hearing her denial, Fu Jingting’s eyes dimmed for a moment, but he wasn’t too disappointed.
If she could notice that he hadn’t left, it meant that she was still paying attention to him.
He was already very happy.
“Breakfast!” Fu Jingting lifted the bag in his hand and handed it to Rong Shu, fearing that she would reject it like last time, he hurriedly added, “Don’t worry, it’s not the same as last time, I queued up at a nearby breakfast shop to buy it.”
“You stood in line to buy them yourself?” Rongshu looked at him with some surprise.
Fu Jingting nodded slightly, “Yes.”
Rongshu tsked.
She knew that breakfast shop nearby, it tasted good and she had bought it, but she rarely got it because those grandparents went to queue up to buy it at dawn every day.
She never thought that this man, who had always been pampered and had people rushing to do everything he asked for, would actually go and queue up for breakfast himself.
When she thought of him wearing a high-fashion suit to grab breakfast from those grandparents, Rong Shu couldn’t help but cover her lips and burst out laughing.
“What are you laughing at?” Fu Jingting looked at her with puzzled eyes.
Rong Shu waved her hand, “Nothing, take the breakfast back, I’m not hungry.”
However, as soon as the words left her mouth, her stomach rumbled.
Fu Jingting looked down at the small of her back, a gentle look shone under his eyes, which quickly converged again, not letting her notice.
“You’re hungry!” Fu Jingting opened his mouth and said.
Rongshu’s face flushed, and her eyes held a bit of shame, “I’m not!”
“Your stomach is growling.” Fu Jingting said once more.
Rongshu squeezed her palms, “You heard wrong.”
After saying that, she crossed over to him and walked towards the lift.
A smile surfaced in Fu Jingting’s eyes as he looked at her, then his long legs caught up with her in two steps and walked beside her, “Fine, I heard you wrong, but eat some, I haven’t bought breakfast like this for anyone else.”
Ding!
The lift arrived.
Rongshu lifted her foot and went inside, there were two other grandparents inside, wearing a practice outfit, they should be going to the community garden for morning exercise.
Rong Shu first smiled at them, then put away her smile before saying to Fu Jingting, who came in behind her, “Whether you’ve bought for other people or not, there’s no need to tell me, and I don’t care, because I won’t accept all the breakfasts you buy.”
Hearing these words, Fu Jingting’s heart blunted, his eyelids drooped, and his body exuded an air of depression.
The grandparents at the side couldn’t stand it anymore and asked, “Girl, did you have a fight with your boyfriend?”
When Fu Jingting heard the word “boyfriend”, his eyes flickered for a moment, but he quickly returned to his old self and nodded apologetically to the grandparents, saying that he was sorry to have disturbed them.
With this action, he was clearly acknowledging his status as Rong Shu’s ‘boyfriend’ as described by the grandparents.
Rong Shu was stunned.
How could this man be so shameless!
Just as Rong Shu was about to explain that Fu Jingting was not her boyfriend, the grandma suddenly spoke up smilingly, “Girl, I heard what you guys just said, it’s not good for you to be like this.”
Chapter 288
“Huh?” Rongshu was dumbfounded.
What was wrong with her?
Auntie laughed again, “It’s normal for young lovers to quarrel, but don’t take it too seriously, and I see that this young man is very sincere in admitting his mistake, and even bought you breakfast, so you should forgive him, there are not many men who can coax their girlfriends nowadays, you will regret it for the rest of your life if you don’t cherish it.”
“No, ma’am I ……”
Ding, the lift is here!
The big lady patted Rong Shu’s shoulder and cut off her words, “Girl, think about what I said.”
After saying that, the ama looked at Fu Jingting again, “And young man, don’t make your girlfriend angry in the future, it’s fate to be together, you have to cherish it.”
“Yes, I’ll remember, thanks a lot.” Fu Jingting nodded slightly to express his gratitude.
He hadn’t cherished Rong Shu in the past, he would put her first in the future.
Seeing that Fu Jingting had listened to his words, the older woman took the arm of the older man next to her and smilingly exited the lift.
The floor that Rongshu had pressed had not yet arrived, so she did not go out.
She scratched her hair and said with some annoyance, “What is this? Fu Jingting, you are really cheeky, the ama identified us as a couple, and you dare to admit it!”
Fu Jingting pressed the door button, “I just don’t want to embarra*s the old man if he knows he’s mistaken.”
“Don’t you dare!” Rongshu glared at him, “You clearly have ulterior motives.”
Fu Jingting raised the end of his eyebrow, acquiescing.
Rong Shu rubbed her brow and calmed down a little, “Alright, I won’t bother with you this time, but if there’s another time, Fu Jingting, I definitely won’t let it go.”
She looked at him coldly.
Fu Jingting’s heart ached and he lowered his eyelids, hiding the divine hurt in his eyes mmm, “Okay, then breakfast ……”
“No!” Rong Shu faintly threw out two words, then did not even look at him to walk out of the lift, towards his parking spot.
Fu Jingting carried his breakfast and followed him.
Rong Shu heard the footsteps behind her and ignored them. She took out the car keys from her bag and pressed the door open, then got into the car and left.
Fu Jingting stood at the same spot and watched her leave, his thin lips pursed slightly.
The a*sistant who came to pick up Fu Jingting not far away took in the scene, shook his head with emotion and sighed.
It seems that Mr. Fu’s road to chase his wife is still a long way to go!
……
Tian Sheng Group.
Rong Shu was dealing with the piles of documents when Secretary Tong knocked on the door and came in, “Mr. Rong, someone from the Meng family business is here.”
“The Meng family?” Rong Shu raised her eyebrows.
Secretary Tong nodded, “Yes, the person who is here is the chairman of the Meng family enterprise.”
“Here for Meng Ke’s business, right?” Rong Shu hooked her lips mockingly.
“Yes, it says it’s to apologize to you for what happened to Meng Ke.” Secretary Tong returned.
Rong Shu snorted, “The apology doesn’t even have an apology, so you can see that it’s not sincere either, just like the last time.”
Last time it was Mrs. Meng who blocked her at the entrance of the court and apologized to her, asking her to let Meng Ke go, and then there was no compensation gift whatsoever.
Of course, she wasn’t greedy for that little reparation gift, but since you came to apologise but didn’t even show it, it would only make people feel insincere.
And this time Chairman Meng was the same.
She had to sigh, Chairman Meng and Madam Meng were really husband and wife, not a family but a family, ah, maybe it was still Madam Meng who knew she would not let Meng Ke go, so she specially asked Chairman Meng to come to her personally.
But did she think she would let Meng Ke go just because he came?
Heh, what a daydream, she doesn’t even care about Gu Yaotian, let alone a Meng family that doesn’t even compare to Tian Sheng!
“General Manager Rong, do you want to see?” Secretary Tong asked as she looked at Rong Shu.
Rong Shu lowered her head and continued to work on the documents, her voice was cold and indifferent as she replied, “No, let them go.”
“Okay.” Tong Xi nodded her head and turned to go out.
After an unknown amount of time, Rong Shu finally finished the pile of papers, then got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window to move her sore neck and wrists.
Suddenly, she saw a few vans coming from a short distance below her, stopping in front of the group’s main entrance.
The doors opened and a group of men and women carrying microphones and cameras were rushing madly towards the group’s main entrance.
They were as excited as if they had smelled some amazing news.
Rongshu wrinkled her eyebrows, not understanding what had happened to make this group of media so excited to come to Tiansheng.
But in her heart, she was vaguely uneasy.
Rongshu took a deep breath and pushed the uneasiness down for the time being, then turned around and went back to her desk, picked up the landline and dialed the number in Tong Xi’s office.
“Mr. Rong, what are your orders?” Secretary Tong’s respectful voice came through.
Rong Shu pursed her red lips, “Just now I saw a group of media coming to Tiansheng, they are in the hall now, you go and inquire ……”
Before the words were finished, her phone rang.
Rongshu glanced at it and saw that it was Lu Qi calling, grabbed the phone and said to Tong Xi, “You wait for a moment.”
“Okay.” Tong Xi nodded her head.
Rong Shu put down the landline, her white onion-like fingers crossed the answer button and answered Lu Qi’s call, “Hey, Ah Qi.”
“Baby, did a lot of media come from your place?” Lu Qi’s anxious voice came into her eardrums.
It also made the uneasiness that Rong Shu had felt before, bubble back up.
She gripped her phone tightly and nodded, “Yes, almost two dozen have come, Ah Qi, what the hell is going on here? Do you know something?”
Lu Qi said with an angry face, “It’s all because of that Gu Manyin. Half an hour ago, she actually posted a message on her social media platform, saying that she was being bullied and that you were the one who planned it.
“What?” Rong Shu’s face changed slightly, “Gu Mangyin she actually said that?”
“I really want to go over there and rip her apart, D*mn it, I’ve never seen such a shameless woman!” Lu Qi cursed loudly.
After a couple of seconds, he took a breath and calmed down, “Baby, I’m telling you, don’t go out, or the media won’t let you go.”
“I know.” Rongshu nodded her head with a serious expression.
Lu Qi made two sounds, “Good to know, but I’m not comfortable with you being alone in Tian Sheng, I’d better come over to keep you company.”
With that, he was about to hang up the phone.
Rongshu hurriedly stopped him, “But don’t, you mustn’t come, you are still my boyfriend’s identity to the outside world, if you show up, those media will definitely grab you too, and maybe your company has gone to the media now.”
“Mr. Lu!” As soon as her words left her mouth, she heard someone on the other end of the phone calling out to Lu Qi.
Lu Qi didn’t know what he had said to the person before he came back to his voice after ten seconds or so, “Baby, you were really right, some media came from downstairs of my company too.”
“I’m sorry, A Qi, I’m the one who got you into this.” Rongshu tugged at the corner of her mouth apologetically.
Lu Qi smiled unconcernedly, “Alright, I don’t blame you, but I might have to go deal with the media for now.”
“Well, go ahead.” Rongshu nodded her head.
Hanging up the phone, she picked up the landline microphone she had just put down, “Secretary Tong, you go to the lobby on the ground floor now, and by the way, arrange for a few more security guards to stop those media, don’t let them barge up!”
“Okay Mr. Rong.” Tong Xi responded.
Rong Shu put the microphone back on the landline and rubbed her brow in exasperation.
Just as Ah Qi had just said, this woman Gu Manyin was so shameless that she would make trouble as soon as she woke up.
