Chapter 29 You're no longer going to Zhangjing City?
"I have a document sent from Germany that I'd like you to take a look at," Sheng Tingze said.
Rong Shu said, "Okay, send it to me later!"
Sheng Tingze peeled a shrimp for Rong Shu and placed it in her bowl, smiling as he said, "Then thank you, sister-in-law."
Hearing her son's words, Fu Ying looked at him and asked, "What are you thanking your cousin-in-law for?"
Sheng Tingze said, "I'm asking my cousin's wife for help."
"Didn't you see your cousin's wife is heavily pregnant? You're still making her tired."
Rong Shu smiled gently and said, "It's nothing, just a small matter."
Fu Ying had always treated her fairly gently, since she had no vested interests or reputation to her. Occasionally, she would agree with the old lady and say a few words in agreement.
"Tingze and Xiaoshu seem to have a good relationship," Cheng Xin said. Cheng Xin is Sheng Tingyu's wife, and thus Sheng Tingze's sister-in-law.
Fu Ying said, "They used to go to the same school. That year, Xiao Shu was the top science student in the city, and Ting Ze was only one point behind her."
This was discovered when the old lady arranged for someone to conduct a background check. However, when she heard the name Rong Shu, she felt that it sounded familiar. After all, her son missed the mark by one point back then, which she regretted. Therefore, she had a strong impression of the name Rong Shu.
So Rong Shu's appearance was a bit lacking, but she was smart and excellent enough to be a virtuous wife who could assist Sheng Tingchen, but unfortunately he didn't think much of her.
Perhaps so. A genius among geniuses like Sheng Tingchen, Rong Shu's intelligence probably wouldn't even catch his eye.
Cheng Xin suddenly realized, "Oh, I see. This is truly a wonderful coincidence."
Sheng Tingze sighed, "Yes, who would have thought that the person who always calls me Brother Ze is now a generation above me?"
Upon hearing this, Rong Shu couldn't help but glance at the man beside her. He was only three months older than her. Back when they were in school, she had asked him for help, and he teased her by telling her to call him "brother."
Cheng Xin laughed, "Then you should hurry up and find a girlfriend who is of a higher generation than Xiao Shu."
Sheng Tingze reacted with a look of sudden realization, "Oh right, sister-in-law is right." Then he looked at Rong Shu teasingly and said, "Then do you have any older sisters in your family who you could introduce?"
Rong Shu just wanted to roll her eyes. "How about I introduce you to my brother?"
At the same time, Pei Yu, who was having dinner, couldn't help but sneeze.
Sheng Tingze said, "Then you'll have to see if my mom agrees?"
Fu Ying glared at him, "What nonsense are you spouting, you brat? You're never serious."
Seeing the harmonious scene between Rong Shu and her sister-in-law's family, Shen Yurong couldn't help but frown. Sheng Tingchen, sitting next to Rong Shu, remained expressionless and showed no emotion at the harmony between Rong Shu and Sheng Tingze's family.
Seeing them laughing so happily, Old Madam Sheng asked, "What are you talking about, so happy?"
"..."
After dinner.
Sheng Tingchen was summoned to the study by Sheng Hanzhang.
"It was your Uncle Fu who suspended the cooperation agreement."
The Uncle Fu mentioned by Sheng Hanzhang is Fu Xiansong, the eldest son of Old Fu, who is the mayor of Beijing.
"I asked him, and he said it was your Grandpa Fu who wanted to pressure you into the partnership."
Sheng Tingchen said, "The cooperation will not be canceled. Grandpa Fu is being too emotional."
Sheng Hanzhang frowned.
Indeed, this cooperation was planned as early as half a year ago. It concerns the financing of enterprises in Beijing and cannot be canceled suddenly. It is just that it has not been approved yet. Old Fu probably just wants to give Tingchen a warning.
"I heard from your mother that at the Fu family's banquet before, your grandfather Fu specially invited you."
Sheng Hanzhang was unable to attend the Fu family banquet that night due to work commitments.
Sheng Tingchen hummed in agreement.
Sheng Hanzhang said, "You know your grandfather Fu's temperament. He used to praise you the most, but this time he must be very dissatisfied with your behavior. Now that you've married this person and the child is about to be born, you should be careful."
Sheng Tingchen remained silent, his face grim.
Sheng Hanzhang looked at his son. This marriage was indeed a disservice to him. He had previously arranged a marriage for him with someone of equal social standing, whose education, talent, and appearance were all a good match for him.
However, his son has been independent since childhood and doesn't like to be arranged for. He is indeed capable and confident enough that he doesn't necessarily need a partner of equal social standing. Therefore, they do not object to him marrying a girl he likes.
The outcome was unexpected by everyone.
"Tomorrow is the weekend, you should go and give your grandfather a proper visit."
Sheng Tingchen said, "I understand."
downstairs.
The whole family sat in the living room chatting.
Sheng Tingze seemed to notice that Rong Shu was out of place sitting there, so he asked her to help him process a document sent from Germany.
"It's quite urgent. They just sent another message urging me to hurry up. I can only trouble my cousin-in-law now."
Madam Sheng said, "Then hurry up and deal with it!"
"..."
Sheng Tingze led her to a side hall, and Rong Shu felt a sense of relief.
She could tolerate the awkward pressure of being ignored when female elders were present.
But being with male elders can really make you feel out of place. The men in the Sheng family all have a strong presence, and just one look from them can make you feel incredibly pressured.
Of course, this excludes Sheng Tingze, probably because the two have known each other since childhood.
Sheng Tingze smiled and asked, "Are you that nervous?"
Rong Shu glanced at him and asked, "What documents need to be processed?"
Sheng Tingze smiled and said, "Please have a seat!"
Then he turned on the computer and placed it on the desk, opened the file and handed it to Rong Shu. Rong Shu glanced at it and estimated that it would take more than half an hour to process.
Sheng Tingze sat next to her.
Half an hour later.
Rong Shu handled it well.
Sheng Tingze invited me with a serious expression, "How about you come to the company and be my assistant? I'll give you double the salary my cousin used to pay you."
Rong Shu stood up and walked to the sofa, slowly sitting down with one hand on her lower back and the other on her stomach. "Do you think I can be your assistant now?"
Sheng Tingze stepped forward. "That seat is always reserved for you."
Rong Shu smiled and said, "Then I'm afraid you won't be able to wait that long."
Sheng Tingze sat down next to her and asked, "So you're not going back to Beijing?"
Rong Shu said, "Let's talk about the future later!"
"..."
It was already nine o'clock.
The maid arrived at the side hall, saw the two of them, and said, "Second Young Madam, the Second Young Master is about to leave."
Rong Shu sat up, and Sheng Tingze helped her up.
We arrived at the main hall.
When Rong Shu saw Sheng Tingchen saying goodbye to the elders, she realized that the family banquet usually involved staying overnight at the old house. However, Sheng Tingchen would always go back after the banquet so as not to share a room with her. Old Madam Sheng never said anything about it.
Sheng Tingchen turned his head to the side and saw Rong Shu and Sheng Tingze walking towards him.
