Chapter 156 Call my brother and ask.
Rong Shu made a phone call to Xue Mingjie to discuss work matters.
She took Meimei directly back to the Rong family.
along the way.
Rong Shu was chatting with Mei Mei.
Meimei was still sulking, and huffed, "I'm not a child without a mother! I have Aunt Evelynn now. Aunt Evelynn, will you be my mother?"
When Rong Shu heard her daughter's pleading words, her heart ached with pain, and her nose tingled with tears.
I even had the urge to tell Meimei that she was her mother, that she wasn't a child without a mother, and that her mother had never abandoned her.
But in the end, she held back.
They arrived at the Rong family's residence.
Pei Lanhua and Rong Qingwen were alarmed when they saw Rong Shu return with Mei Mei, who looked listless and dispirited.
Pei Lanhua asked worriedly, "Why is Meimei unhappy?"
Rong Shu, holding Mei Mei, said, "Dad, Mom, I'll take Mei Mei upstairs first."
The two didn't ask any further questions. "Okay, take Meimei to rest quickly."
Because Meimei often comes over, Rong Shu's room is filled with Meimei's daily necessities and her favorite rabbit plush toys.
Rong Shu stayed in the bedroom with Mei Mei, coaxing her to sleep.
After Meimei falls asleep.
Rong Shu lay on the bed with her, holding her small body tightly in her arms, her heart filled with endless guilt and unbearable sorrow.
She nodded and kissed Meimei's forehead, her voice hoarse as she said, "Baby, I'm sorry, it's all Mommy's fault. Mommy really loves you."
She stayed with Meimei while she slept for a while.
When I woke up again.
Meimei is still fast asleep.
Rong Shu didn't wake her up, but carefully got out of bed and went downstairs after lifting the covers.
Pei Lanhua and Rong Qingwen were watching TV upstairs.
Seeing her come down, Rong Qingwen asked, "Xiao Shu, what exactly happened to Mei Mei?"
Rong Shu didn't explain much to them, only saying, "I had a conflict with some kindergarten kids, so I brought Meimei back first."
"Why did a conflict suddenly break out? Is Meimei alright?"
"No, Meimei is fine."
"That's good."
"..."
night.
Pei Lanhua personally cooked a delicious meal for Meimei.
When Meimei woke up, Rong Shu hugged her and tried to cheer her up. Meimei's clear, cheerful laughter echoed in the bedroom, and she became just like before.
Rong Shu got dressed and pulled her downstairs.
Meimei greeted Rong Qingwen upon seeing him.
Seeing that Meimei was happy again, Rong Qingwen felt relieved.
Meimei played with her little uncle, and Xiaobao seemed to really like his little niece, giggling happily as he watched Meimei.
Meimei was infected by Xiaobao's voice and started laughing too.
Rong Qingwen grew increasingly fond of his granddaughter, but he couldn't help but feel a pang of emotion.
"How's the divorce between you and Sheng Tingchen going?" Rong Qingwen asked in a low voice.
Rong Shu said, "I estimate it won't be resolved anytime soon."
Attorney Guo said the trial would be held at the end of the month, but given the current situation, the verdict certainly won't be so easy to reach.
Rong Qingwen's face darkened.
Meimei is a good girl, and the child is innocent, but he still doesn't want his daughter to continue to be entangled in this painful marriage.
How could a cold-blooded man like Sheng Tingchen possibly live a peaceful life with his daughter? Such a family would be even more harmful to the child. As long as the two of them love each other enough, that's fine.
Rong Qingwen said, "Since he wants to drag this out, Xiaoshu, don't dwell on it too much. Just don't let it affect your normal life. Spend more time with Meimei."
Rong Shu nodded in response.
"Does Meimei suspect anything about you now?" Rong Qingwen asked.
Rong Shu gently shook her head. "She's still young and doesn't understand anything yet."
Although Meimei could sense the discord between her and her father, she didn't understand the complicated relationships between adults.
Meimei doesn't know that she is her mother, but she wants her to be her mother.
During dinner.
Pei Yu did not return.
Rong Shu asked, "Isn't brother coming home for dinner tonight?"
Pei Lanhua said, "He's busy at the company today and has to work overtime. We don't need to wait for him. Let's eat first."
"Um."
I slept for quite a long time in the afternoon.
Meimei didn't go to sleep until 10 p.m.
Before going to bed, Meimei had a video call with Sheng Tingchen.
Rong Shu went downstairs to make a cup of milk and saw Pei Yucai returning. "Brother, why are you only coming back now? Were you that busy today?"
Pei Yu hummed in agreement. "Yes, something came up. Xiao Yu said that Ya Ya and Mei Mei got into a fight with some other kids at school today. Is Mei Mei alright?"
Jiang Yu and Pei Yu have exchanged contact information and are now in frequent private contact.
Although neither side has explicitly stated it.
But Rong Shu could tell that her brother definitely had feelings for Xiao Yu too. A tech guy like her brother really needed a warm and cheerful girl like Xiao Yu.
Rong Shu is quite pleased with the current progress of the two.
Rong Shu: "Yes, everything is fine now. I brought Meimei back today, and she was back to normal by tonight."
Pei Yu nodded, "That's good. But saying that a child doesn't have a mother is definitely not something a child would say for no reason."
Before dinner.
Rong Shu told Jiang Yu the whole story while they were chatting.
Jiang Yu was filled with righteous indignation: "It must be that bitch An Qingyue who's been talking badly about Meimei behind her back! How could she be so vicious? Sheng Tingchen loves Meimei so much, and Meimei has suffered so much injustice. Is he really going to let it go like this? Besides her face, what is it about An Qingyue that Sheng Tingchen sees in her? Has he lost his mind?!"
As for what Sheng Tingchen was going to do, Rong Shu didn't know.
However, judging from An Qingyue's guilty look yesterday, it's clear that she was genuinely afraid that Sheng Tingchen would have a problem with her because of Meimei.
Even if Sheng Tingchen remarries in the future, she doesn't want to see it be An Qingyue.
The following day was the weekend.
Jiang Yu took Ya Ya to the Rong family.
The two children got along exceptionally well when they met.
Jiang Yu laughed and said, "Meimei and Ya Ya are now revolutionary friends who have fought together. I never thought Ya Ya could fight. I was worried that she would be bullied. Mei Mei looks well-behaved, but I didn't expect her to have a temper. Now that Ya Ya is hanging out with Mei Mei, I won't have to worry about her in the future."
Meimei is Sheng Tingchen's child after all, how could she be someone who has no temper and would be bullied?
The two men were watching over two children playing in the yard.
Seeing Meimei's happy smile, Rong Shu felt a warmth in her heart.
"I originally asked my brother to bring me here today, but it seems like he had a sudden accident at work, something to do with Yunshan. I asked him, but he said he didn't know. Rong Shu, you know, why don't you call and ask my brother?"
Hearing Jiang Yu's words, Rong Shu was also worried. She hadn't heard Jiang Huaixu mention it yesterday, so she took out her phone and dialed Jiang Huaixu's number.
The call was answered quickly, and Rong Shu asked, "Professor, Xiaoyu said something happened at the company, what happened?"
