Chapter 175 Making Dad Kneel on the Washboard Again
Rong Shu stared at the man with wide eyes.
in silence.
A deathly silence fell over the air.
I don't know how much time passed.
Rong Shu calmly replied, "So, Sheng Tingchen, you can do whatever you want, while I can only be manipulated by you, is that right?"
Sheng Tingchen took a deep breath, withdrew his hand, straightened up, and looked down at the woman in front of him. His dark eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. "Since you chose to marry me and give birth to Meimei, you should understand that your life is no longer something you can control on your own."
Rong Shu clenched her fingers, took a deep breath, and looked at him, saying, "Falling in love with you was the stupidest thing I ever did in my life. Because of loving you, I let you trample on my dignity five years ago. I am sorry to Meimei. Meimei is my responsibility, but I will never let you use Meimei to control my life."
Sheng Tingchen narrowed his dark eyes slightly.
suddenly.
The man smiled faintly, a cryptic smile playing on his lips, and said, "You are indeed more capable than you were five years ago, but Rong Shu, that's far from enough."
"Sheng Tingchen, don't push me!"
Sheng Tingchen just chuckled, "Let's think about how to make up for the past five years of Meimei's life first."
After saying that, the man turned and strode upstairs.
Rong Shu stood there, staring at the man's retreating figure as he went upstairs.
Until his figure disappeared.
Rong Shu walked weakly toward the sofa, sat down heavily, bent over, and ran her hands through her hair.
She was exhausted, both physically and mentally.
Until Meimei's voice rang out.
"Mommy, Mommy."
Rong Shu composed herself and watched as Mei Mei ran downstairs.
As soon as Meimei came downstairs, she threw herself into Rong Shu's arms, snuggling against her affectionately and asking, "Mommy, does Meimei smell nice?"
Rong Shu smiled gently, "Meimei is the most fragrant child."
"Mom is the sweetest mom."
"Where's Dad?"
Rong Shu picked up Mei Mei and sat her on her lap, saying, "Daddy is upstairs."
Mei Mei blinked her big eyes at Rong Shu, then suddenly fell silent.
Rong Shu's heart tightened inexplicably. She gently stroked her cheek with her fingers. "Baby, what's wrong?"
Meimei asked, "Is Aunt Evelynn really Meimei's mother?"
Rong Shu reached out and hugged Mei Mei tightly in her arms, her voice trembling as she said, "If Mei Mei needs a mother, Aunt Evelynn can be Mei Mei's mother today."
Hearing Rong Shu's words, Mei Mei's face fell again, and she mumbled, "I'm happy that Aunt Evelynn is willing to be Mei Mei's mom. Can Aunt Evelynn be Mei Mei's mom for a week?"
Rong Shu felt a sharp, stabbing pain in her heart, and nodded, saying, "Okay."
talking.
Tears streamed uncontrollably down my face.
"Why is Mommy crying? Is something wrong with Meimei?"
Rong Shu reached out and wiped away her tears: "No, Meimei is fine. Meimei is the best child."
"That must be because Dad bullied Mom, and Meimei is helping Mom teach Dad a lesson."
Meimei, looking sullen, got out of Rong Shu's arms and ran upstairs to find her father.
"Beautiful!"
Rong Shu pulled Mei Mei back.
Then they saw Sheng Tingchen standing on the second floor. The man had changed into a clean set of pajamas and was walking downstairs with a handsome and upright figure.
When Meimei saw her father, she put her hands on her hips and glared at him angrily.
Meimei climbed onto the sofa and stood there, tilting her little head back and puffing out her cheeks, looking like an angry frog. Seeing her father approach, Meimei huffed, "Daddy, apologize to Mommy!"
Sheng Tingchen glanced at Rong Shu.
Rong Shu didn't look at him. "Alright, Meimei, be careful not to fall."
Sheng Tingchen reached out and picked up Meimei, sitting her down next to Rong Shu. "How does Daddy want to apologize?"
Rong Shu moved a little to one side.
The man noticed Rong Shu's movements out of the corner of his eye.
Meimei said, "Aunt Evelynn will be Meimei's mom for a week from now on, and Daddy has to listen to Mommy in everything and is not allowed to make Mommy unhappy."
Sheng Tingchen listened to Meimei's words, his deep black eyes fixed on Rong Shu.
Rong Shu turned her head away from the man, but she clearly felt a cold and sinister gaze fall on her.
"Dad, quickly apologize to Mom and tell her you'll listen to me from now on," Meimei urged hurriedly.
Sheng Tingchen withdrew his gaze, his voice gentle, "What if Mom doesn't accept it?"
Meimei snorted and said, "Then Daddy has to keep apologizing. If Daddy is nice to Aunt Evelynn, then Meimei will always have a Mommy."
Sheng Tingchen patted Meimei's head, his eyes filled with helplessness. Meimei removed her father's hand, suddenly stood up from his arms, put her hands on her hips, and glared at him angrily. "Daddy, if you don't apologize, Meimei will get angry."
Sheng Tingchen looked at Rong Shu, who remained silent, and said, "I'm sorry!"
When Rong Shu heard these three words, she felt dazed. How could a man as high and mighty as him utter these three words?
Meimei looked at Rong Shu, then threw herself into her arms. "If Mommy doesn't forgive Daddy, how about making Daddy kneel on the washboard again?"
Rong Shu couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile. "Your father is indeed despicable and deserves to be taught a lesson."
Upon hearing this...
The man beside him frowned.
Meimei immediately got down from Rong Shu's arms. Not knowing where Meimei was going, Sheng Tingchen reached out and grabbed her, asking, "Meimei, what are you going to do?"
Meimei hummed, "Go get Mom a broom."
Sheng Tingchen pulled Meimei back and coaxed her helplessly, "Alright, Daddy knows he was wrong. He'll just not make Mommy angry again."
Meimei looked at Rong Shu.
Sheng Tingchen also looked at her, his eyes no longer showing the arrogance they had just displayed, but he was clearly reminding her to comfort Meimei.
It turns out there are people in this world who leave him feeling helpless.
Rong Shu smiled and said, "Meimei, go get the broom."
The words were spoken.
The man's face darkened.
Meimei immediately replied, "Okay."
Meimei saw the nanny and asked her to get a broom.
The nanny was at a loss for what to do, but she dared not disobey the young lady's orders, even if it offended the master, she could not displease the young lady.
The nanny had no choice but to fetch a broom and hand it to Meimei, who immediately passed it to Rong Shu.
Rong Shu took it, stood up, and looked at the man.
Sheng Tingchen looked up and stared at her.
Rong Shu threw the broom in front of him, "I'll trouble Mr. Sheng to sweep the yard outside."
Meimei looked at Rong Shu and asked, "If Daddy sweeps the yard, will Mommy forgive him?"
Rong Shu gave a soft "hmm".
Meimei reached out and grabbed her father's hand: "Daddy, hurry up and sweep the yard. Meimei will help you sweep, and then Mommy will forgive you sooner."
Sheng Tingchen took the broom from her hand. "Alright, Meimei, go back to your room with Mom to sleep. Dad will go by himself."
Rong Shu bent down, reached out and picked up Mei Mei, then took her away.
As for whether he would sweep the yard or not, at least seeing him get his comeuppance had already made her feel much better.
Rong Shu carried Mei Mei back to the bedroom, coaxed Mei Mei to sleep, then went to the bathroom to wash up and get ready. When she returned to bed and picked up her phone, she saw a message from Jiang Yu: Xiao Shu, have you and Mei Mei reunited?
Rong Shu replied: For now!
Jiang Yu asked in confusion: What do you mean, "temporarily"?
Rong Shu gave a brief explanation.
Jiang Yu said helplessly: "In that case, if Meimei really knows that you are her mother, aren't you worried that she will blame you?"
Rong Shu was naturally afraid.
If she were to acknowledge Meimei now, and Meimei would have parents in her heart, but she is still in the midst of a divorce lawsuit with Sheng Tingchen, she would not be able to give Meimei a complete family. This would only cause greater harm to Meimei.
Sheng Tingchen was simply using Meimei to force her to compromise.
The two chatted for a while before ending the conversation.
Jiang Yu put down his phone and looked at Ya Ya, who was asleep.
Looking back on her past, Rong Shu is now experiencing a hundred times more hardship and pain than she has.
She slowed her pace, left the bedroom, and went to Jiang Huaixu's study.
She knocked and went in.
Seeing that Jiang Huaixu was still working, she walked up to him and teased, "Brother, you still have the mind to work?"
Jiang Huaixu looked up at her beaming face and asked, "What is it?"
Jiang Yu walked over, leaned against the edge of the desk, and looked at him. "Dad was so angry tonight, and I'm on your side. How are you going to reward me?"
The Jiang family had just experienced a quarrel and standoff.
Jiang's father was very unhappy that Jiang Huaixu had fallen for a woman who had a husband and daughter, and for the first time, he spoke very harshly to Jiang Huaixu.
Jiang Huaixu did not obey his father at all, which made his father very angry.
Jiang Yu, who had always been her father's favorite, stood up for him this time, saying, "I'm divorced now with a child, does that mean I'm not worthy of finding a first-time husband?"
These words left Jiang's father speechless.
"Besides, my brother just likes it. He's well-behaved and hasn't done anything outrageous. My brother has finally found love again. If you stop him, you'll never be a grandfather in your life."
Jiang's father was speechless.
Jiang's mother also tried to persuade him, and Jiang's father finally gave up, but he still sternly warned, "I don't care if she gets divorced, but she is still a married woman. Huaixu, you absolutely cannot have an affair with her."
