Chapter 203: Do you want me to feed you?
After chatting with Meimei for a few minutes, Rong Shu exited the video call, found Sheng Tingze's number in the man's contacts, and dialed it.
The call was connected.
There was no response from the other end.
"Tingze, it's me."
Upon hearing Rong Shu's voice, Sheng Tingze was startled. "Shu, are you alright?"
Rong Shu said, "I'm fine. Sheng Tingchen took me away. My phone is broken and I can't make calls."
Sheng Tingze was not surprised to hear this; they had already guessed it.
"My cousin won't let you leave now?"
Rong Shu nodded, "He wants me to stay here until I return to China."
"So where are you living now?"
Rong Shu told her the location.
"As long as you're safe and sound, that's good. How's the professor doing?"
Seeing Zhao Zheng's obvious hostility towards Jiang Huaixu at the banquet that day, I knew that someone as vengeful as him would not let it go.
"Zhao Zheng did indeed find his way here today. You're relatively safer with my cousin now."
Rong Shuxin's heart leaped into her throat. "What's he doing here?"
"They're just here to threaten and bluff."
Rong Shu frowned and said, "Zhao Zheng is definitely not just bluffing. Tingze, if you and the professor have nothing else to discuss, why don't you go back to China first?"
This is New York, not China.
The words fell.
A deep male voice suddenly came from behind, asking, "Finished fighting?"
Rong Shu was startled and turned to look at the man who had entered.
Sheng Tingchen strode up to her, took the phone back from Rong Shu's hand, and seeing the caller ID, picked up the phone and put it to his ear, saying in a serious tone, "Tingze, I'll say it again, if you don't have anything to do here, go back to China."
Sheng Tingze remained silent on the other end of the line.
Sheng Tingchen hung up the phone immediately, looked down at Rong Shu, and reminded her, "There should be boundaries between friends like you and Tingze."
"Sheng Tingchen, don't think of people as despicable as you."
"Did you sleep with Zhao Zheng or not?" the man suddenly asked.
Rong Shu's pupils dilated. "What do you mean?"
"Did you sleep or not?" The man's tone became more serious, his eyes fixed on her as if trying to see right through her, as if in her eyes, she was a woman who couldn't be presented in public.
Rong Shu felt a surge of humiliation. She scoffed, "So what if I slept with him? So what if I didn't? What does Sheng Tingchen have to do with you?"
Sheng Tingchen stared at her with his dark eyes, his voice low and deep, warning, "Don't think that just because you have this face now you can seduce any man. You should also consider how capable you really are."
Rong Shu glared angrily at the man.
The man turned and strode out of the bedroom.
As Rong Shu watched his departing figure, she felt her breathing become labored.
the next day.
Rong Shu felt a severe stomachache and went to the bathroom to check. Sure enough, she had started her period.
She lay in bed like that for a whole day.
When Sheng Tingchen returned.
He asked the maid, "Where is she?"
"Miss Evelynn is menstruating and feeling unwell. She has been resting in bed and hasn't eaten anything all day."
When Sheng Tingchen entered Rong Shu's room, he saw the woman curled up on the bed, her brows furrowed and her face extremely pale.
He asked the servant to call a doctor to come to his house.
Half an hour later.
The doctor who came to my home was a Chinese female gynecologist.
Having learned about the situation beforehand, the doctor brought the medication with him.
Rong Shu lay helplessly on the bed as the doctor examined her and gave her an injection.
After leaving the room.
Sheng Tingchen was handling official business in the living room when he saw the doctor come out and asked, "How is she?"
Thinking back to when I saw her at the hospital, it was around this time, so it seems she was hospitalized because of her period.
"Her menstrual cramps are quite severe, so we gave her a painkiller injection. If the pain is still this severe tomorrow, it would be best to hospitalize her. During this time, she should try to maintain a good mood and pay attention to her diet."
The doctor gave a few more reminders and then left the villa.
The maid prepared brown sugar bird's nest soup and was about to deliver it to Rong Shu's room.
Give it to me!
Sheng Tingchen carried the bowl to Rong Shu's room. Because of the injection, her stomach was not so uncomfortable now, but she still didn't want to move while lying in bed.
When she saw the man enter, she turned her head away.
Sheng Tingchen walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, looking at her, and said, "Get up and eat something."
Rong Shu did not respond.
The man then said, "Do you want me to feed you?"
Rong Shu turned her head to look at him, and said weakly and irritably, "I don't want to eat."
Sheng Tingchen placed the bowl he was holding on the bedside table, then lifted the blanket off the woman, reached out and picked her up, placing a pillow behind her back with one hand.
Rong Shu wanted to push the man away, but she simply didn't have the strength to argue with him.
Seeing the man pick up the bowl, she quickly said, "I can do it myself."
Sheng Tingchen handed the bowl to her.
Rong Shu reached out and took it. Seeing that the man had no intention of leaving, she didn't care and picked up the spoon to scoop out a spoonful.
Sheng Tingchen sat on the edge of the bed watching her eat.
The two remained silent, the air still, the atmosphere unusually peaceful.
After Rong Shu finished eating, Sheng Tingchen took the bowl from her and said, "Get some rest. If you're still not feeling well tomorrow, go to the hospital."
He got up and left the room.
The next day.
Sheng Tingchen didn't go out immediately. When he went downstairs to the restaurant, he saw Rong Shu. She was clearly in much better condition than yesterday, but her face was still pale. He asked, "How are you feeling?"
Rong Shu ate her porridge and said, "No need to go to the hospital, I'm much better now."
Sheng Tingchen didn't say anything more and sat in the main seat.
No one spoke again.
But the atmosphere was exceptionally peaceful.
It could be said that this was the first time the two of them had eaten breakfast so calmly.
For a long time.
Rong Shu finally spoke up, saying, "I want to handle the company's affairs myself."
Sheng Tingchen looked up at her and said, "What documents do you need? Have someone bring them over."
Clearly, they still wouldn't allow her to leave.
Rong Shu tightened her grip on her fingers, not wanting to argue with him. "But you have to let me contact the outside world!"
"I'll have someone send you a new one."
Rong Shu didn't say anything more.
After breakfast.
Sheng Tingchen went out.
I don't know what's going on with Sheng Tingze and Jiang Huaixu.
Thinking of the two of them, Rong Shu felt uneasy all the time.
in the afternoon.
When David arrived at the villa, he saw that Rong Shu was pale and hurriedly asked, "Evelynn, did Sheng Tingchen bully you?"
"I'm fine, David, what brings you here?" Rong Shu asked.
"I came to see you."
She knew that Sheng Tingchen had taken her away when she and Sheng Tingchen disappeared that night.
David added angrily, "Sheng Tingchen is a really wicked guy."
Rong Shu asked, "What's wrong?"
David briefly explained it to Rong Shu.
It was Sheng Tingchen who told her that his fiancée appeared at the banquet that day. In the past two days, his father suddenly started to finalize his marriage and engagement.
Sheng Tingchen is definitely involved in this mess.
He's living a carefree and independent life right now and has absolutely no intention of getting married.
Of course, he knew he couldn't have Evelynn, but dating her for a while would be fine too.
Otherwise, he would be unwilling to accept it.
But no woman has ever failed with him.
Rong Shu smiled and said, "I have a very good impression of that Miss Eleanor, and she and you are actually a good match."
David looked at her, his face etched with sadness. "Even if you don't like me, Evelynn, you don't have to say things like that to hurt me!"
Rong Shu said with a serious expression, "I'm telling the truth."
David sighed, "Alright, alright, I got it."
Rong Shu smiled, then, as if remembering something, said, "David, could you give me your phone first?"
"What are you doing?"
"Give it to me first."
David didn't ask any more questions and gave her the phone.
Rong Shu picked up her phone and dialed Jiang Huaixu's number directly. The call was quickly answered, and Sheng Tingze's voice came through, "Hello."
"Tingze, why did you answer the phone? Where's the professor?"
Sheng Tingze hesitated for a moment before saying, "Brother Huaixu is in the hospital right now."
I hung up the phone.
"David, take me to the hospital now."
When she and David went out.
Seeing this, the maid stepped forward and asked, "Miss Rong, you are not fully recovered yet. The master told you to rest well."
Rong Shu said, "I have to go to the hospital now."
The servants couldn't stop them.
I could only watch her leave.
After the two left, the maid made a phone call to Sheng Tingchen.
