Chapter 176 As you get older, you need to pay more attention to health maintenance.
Jiang Huaixu paused in his typing, looked at Jiang Yu, and asked, "So, what do you want?"
Jiang Yu said, "I haven't decided yet."
"Then let me know whenever you've thought it through."
"Okay then."
Jiang Huaixu, seeing that she still hadn't left, asked, "Is there anything else?"
Jiang Yu raised his chin slightly, his sharp eyes seeing right through his brother's thoughts. "Brother, don't keep your questions to yourself. Why are you being so formal with me?"
Jiang Huaixu smiled helplessly, took off his glasses, leaned back in his chair, wearily pinched the corners of his eyes, and then looked at Jiang Yu and asked, "What did you say to Xiao Shu?"
Jiang Yu told Jiang Huaixu everything in detail.
"I know."
Jiang Yu raised an eyebrow. "Then you really know Xiao Shu well, brother."
Jiang Huaixu said, "If Sheng Tingchen had even the slightest pity for Xiaoshu, Xiaoshu wouldn't be as resolute as she is now."
Although Jiang Yu didn't know the specifics of the harm Rong Shu had suffered, he could tell from Sheng Tingchen's appearance that he was no ordinary cold-hearted person.
Although his attitude was undeniably respectful, and he smiled as he looked at Xiao Shu, there was an unsettling chill about him.
"Xiao Shu must be in a lot of pain right now," Jiang Yu said worriedly.
There was silence in the room for two seconds.
Jiang Yu said with a grin, "Brother, right now is the time when Xiao Shu needs comfort the most."
Jiang Huaixu looked at his younger sister, "Alright, go and get some rest!"
Jiang Yu pouted and said, "Alright then, brother, you should get some rest early tonight." Then, he grinned and said, "As you get older, you need to pay more attention to taking care of yourself."
"Are you itching for a beating?"
Jiang Yu stuck out his tongue, turned around, and quickly left the study.
Jiang Huaixu watched Jiang Yu's departing figure, sat quietly for a while, and then shut down his computer.
Back in the room.
Looking at myself in the mirror, I did look much more haggard, with obvious bluish tinges around my lips and my beard not shaved clean.
Early the next morning.
During breakfast.
Sheng Tingchen said to Rong Shu, "Later, I'll take Meimei to visit a pediatric cardiac surgeon."
Rong Shu was startled and looked at Sheng Tingchen.
Sheng Tingchen glanced at her coldly and explained, "Meimei had a heart problem when she was two years old, and Professor Zhong cured her."
Rong Shu recalled seeing Mei Mei's medical report last time, which showed no abnormalities in her heart.
She didn't ask any further questions.
But when he looked at his daughter, his eyes were filled with even more tenderness.
Meimei looked at Rong Shu and said, "Daddy often brings Meimei to see Grandpa Zhong. Daddy says that without Grandpa Zhong, Daddy wouldn't be able to see Meimei anymore."
Listening to what Meimei said.
Rong Shu felt a chill run down her spine. She hadn't expected that Mei Mei had gone through such a crisis without Sheng Tingze mentioning it.
I probably didn't tell her because I was afraid she would worry.
After breakfast.
Sheng Tingchen drove Rong Shu and Mei Mei to an old residential area in the city center.
Upon arrival.
Sheng Tingchen parked the car outside the residential area. Rong Shu got out of the car with Mei Mei, and Sheng Tingchen took out the prepared gift from the trunk.
Seeing Rong Shu holding Mei Mei, he stepped forward and said, "You carry the gifts, I'll hold Mei Mei."
Even if it was only a brief period of accepting Rong Shu as her mother, in Mei Mei's heart she had a mother, and she became exceptionally attached to Rong Shu.
Meimei is 1.2 meters tall now, so she can't hug her for very long.
Rong Shu showed no intention of handing Mei Mei over to Sheng Tingchen. Instead, she carried Mei Mei toward the entrance of the residential complex and said calmly, "I'll carry Mei Mei."
Sheng Tingchen didn't say anything and strode forward.
I hadn't walked far into the residential area.
Rong Shu was exhausted, so she put Mei Mei down and took her hand. Mei Mei reached out and held her father's hand with one hand.
As they walked towards their apartment building, Meimei would occasionally pull the two of them on a swing, her smile never fading.
At least it can make up for Meimei's shortcomings at this moment.
We arrived at Professor Zhong's house.
Madam Zhong was not surprised to see Sheng Tingchen and Meimei, but she was somewhat taken aback when she saw Rong Shu.
"Tingchen and Meimei are here, come in quickly."
Professor Chung is eighty years old this year and is a top pediatrician in the country. Although he should have retired long ago, he still goes to the hospital to see patients two days a week.
Professor Chung is resting at home today.
"Grandpa Chung-tzu."
Meimei called out politely.
Meimei's personality makes it hard for elders not to like her. Professor Zhong couldn't help but hug Meimei, "Meimei has grown taller again."
Meimei happily introduced to Professor Zhong, "Grandpa Zhong, this is Meimei's mother."
Rong Shu stepped forward and greeted Professor Zhong, "Hello, Professor Zhong."
Professor Zhong couldn't help but take a second look at Rong Shu, since he had never seen her before when Sheng Tingchen brought Mei Mei over.
"Hello, Meimei's mom."
"Professor Chung, may I ask you about Meimei's surgery?"
Professor Zhong glanced at Sheng Tingchen with a puzzled look. She could have asked her husband about this, as he knew very well. However, the two of them did not look like a couple at all.
Professor Zhong didn't say anything, nor did he investigate the reasons behind it. He simply replied, "Of course."
Sheng Tingchen glanced at Rong Shu, then called to Meimei, "Meimei, come here. Mommy and Grandpa Zhongzu need to talk alone for a while."
Meimei responded with an "oh".
Madam Zhong stepped forward, took Meimei's little hand, and led her to play the zither.
Madam Zhong is a piano artist. Meimei can play the piano now. After hearing her play, Madam Zhong wanted to take this little girl as her student.
Meimei then followed Madam Zhong to the music room.
Sheng Tingchen went to the balcony and closed the sliding door without disturbing the two people talking in the living room.
He sat in the wicker chair, handling some work-related matters on his phone.
At this time.
A phone call came in.
Sheng Tingchen stood up, walked to the railing, answered the phone, and said, "Qingzhi, what is it?"
The two chatted about work for a while.
After saying that.
Su Qingzhi asked, "When are you going back to Beijing?"
Sheng Tingchen said, "I'll go back in a couple of days."
Su Qingzhi hummed in agreement and said, "I promised Miss Evelynn that Qingyue would stay in Haishi and reflect on her actions."
Sheng Tingchen hummed in agreement.
The two didn't talk any more.
I hung up the phone.
He turned to look into the living room.
As Rong Shu listened to Professor Zhong's words, she frowned from time to time, her expression revealing her tension and lingering fear.
But after listening to Professor Zhong's explanation, his brows and eyes relaxed again.
After understanding the situation.
Rong Shu kept thanking Professor Zhong.
In the blink of an eye.
She inadvertently met Sheng Tingchen's gaze, which was directed at them, and then coldly looked away.
After they finished talking.
Sheng Tingchen stepped forward, pushed open the door, and entered the living room.
"Professor, have you finished talking?"
