Chapter 211 Even Out
Chapter 211 Even Out
Zhao Zheng stood up, put his hands in his pockets, strode forward, stopped, and said, "It was my fault. I apologize to your cousin. I'm sorry."
Sheng Tingze clenched his fists and stared at him.
"But he hit my brother last time, so we're even."
"Even?" Sheng Tingchen's voice was icy. "There's no such thing as 'even' here."
Zhao Zheng's gaze softened slightly. "Then, Tingchen, what do you want to do?"
The words fell.
Before anyone could react.
Sheng Tingchen punched the man directly in the face.
Zhao Zheng fell to the ground with a thud.
This scene left everyone present stunned.
Sheng Tingze didn't understand what his cousin meant for a moment.
Rong Shu was startled. Sheng Tingchen was always composed and unassuming, but she never expected him to take action in public. Perhaps it was to protect Sheng Tingze, or perhaps it was for An Qingyue, since she had just cried so sadly, he had to do something.
An Qingyue was also incredulous. She had never seen Sheng Tingchen so powerful before, and her heart suddenly pounded uncontrollably.
Although he had always been indulgent towards her, he had never stood up for her like this before, displaying a domineering and wild masculine charm that was exactly the possessive love she had always longed for.
He even wished that the punch was for himself.
Although that's not the case right now.
Fortunately, he was only doing it for Sheng Tingze. Sheng Tingze was, after all, his family. If he was bullied, it would undoubtedly be a slap in the face to Sheng Tingchen.
As Zhao Zheng's bodyguard stepped forward, he gestured with his hand, and the bodyguard helped him up from the ground.
Zhao Zheng wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, looked at Sheng Tingchen, and smiled wickedly, "So, this evens things out?"
Sheng Tingchen's dark eyes were cold and stern. "We're even."
An Qingyue quickly walked up to the man, her eyes filled with worry, and said, "Brother Chen!"
"fine."
As he spoke, he turned his head to the side, his gaze sweeping over Rong Shu before looking at Sheng Tingze, and said, "Aren't you going to the hospital yet?"
Sheng Tingze didn't say anything, but reached out and pulled Rong Shu, saying, "Let's go!"
Rong Shu nodded.
When the two left.
An Qingyue suddenly said, "Wait a minute."
Sheng Tingchen looked at her.
The woman bit her lip slightly, looking aggrieved, and said, "Evelynn stole the card you gave me, Brother Chen. At least she should apologize to me."
The words fell.
Then Sheng Tingze said, "Who do you think you are to apologize to me? I don't hit women, but if I hear you swearing again, don't blame me for being impolite."
An Qingyue was startled. She had been pampered and adored since childhood, with all the men revolving around her. She had never been threatened like this before.
Sheng Tingze's tone didn't sound like he was joking at all.
What kind of bewitching potion did that bitch Rong Shu give him? Doesn't he know how Rong Shu managed to marry Sheng Tingchen, yet he still protects her so much? What is it about this kind of woman that makes him like her?
"Tingze!" Sheng Tingchen's voice turned deep.
Rong Shu looked at the two of them with a cold gaze.
Sheng Tingchen also looked at her.
"I'm not interested in your card. If she wants to use it, let her use it properly. Who is she showing off to?"
But the card was no longer in her hand. The chaos from before had somehow ended up on the ground. Rong Shu's gaze swept across the ground and she saw the black card lying there.
Sheng Tingchen naturally noticed this.
An Qingyue glared angrily at Rong Shu.
The sharp-eyed store manager quickly stepped forward, picked up the black card, wiped his hands clean, and presented it to Sheng Tingchen.
Zhao Zheng suddenly chuckled and said, "Your woman said that Evelynn used to be fat, ugly, and malicious, and that she slept with men. Is that true?"
He had a mocking look on his face, as if he were watching a show.
An Qingyue's face turned pale instantly as she stared at Zhao Zheng.
"Qingyue, apologize to Miss Evelynn," Su Qingzhi's voice came.
An Qingyue stared at her brother in astonishment; he actually made her apologize.
"Brother, you..." She looked at Sheng Tingchen, her voice filled with grievance, "Brother Chen!"
Sheng Tingchen looked at Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng shrugged. "What I said is all true."
"Tingze, let's go!" Rong Shu couldn't stay a moment longer.
Sheng Tingze pulled Rong Shu out of the store.
After leaving the mall.
Rong Shu drove Sheng Tingze to the hospital. His right arm was more seriously injured, but fortunately, no bones were broken; it was just a superficial injury.
After leaving the hospital.
I'm not really in the mood to buy any gifts today.
I'll check out the duty-free shop at the airport tomorrow.
"Tingze, I'm sorry."
Rong Shu suddenly said.
Sheng Tingze paused for a moment, then looked at Rong Shu and asked, "Why are you saying sorry?"
Rong Shu glanced at him and said, "You were injured because of me, so of course I have to apologize."
Sheng Tingze smiled indifferently and said, "What's a little flesh wound? It'll be fine in a while. Besides, protecting you is my duty. I can't just watch you get bullied."
Rong Shu smiled, but felt guilty and uneasy.
Seeing her like this, Sheng Tingze said, "When we get back to China, you need to take good care of your health. That will make up for it."
Rong Shu said, "Of course."
"Then go have dinner with your friend tonight, and call Mingcheng later to ask her to come with you."
Rong Shu thought for a moment and said, "Go to the company to find her now."
I drove up to the company building.
Rong Shu called Lina, who was at the company today doing handover work.
Lina went downstairs.
Seeing Rong Shu's surprise, she asked, "Evelynn, what brings you here?"
Rong Shu stepped forward and handed her a gift and a dessert, saying, "These are for you. I hope you like them."
Lina took it, and asked in confusion, "What's this?"
Rong Shu said, "It's just a small token of my appreciation. Open it and see if you like it."
Lina took out the box, and when she opened it, a Cartier bracelet popped out. She looked up at Rong Shu and said, "Thank you, I really like it. Evelynn, why are you here at this time? Weren't we supposed to have dinner together tonight? I also have a gift for you, but I haven't gone home to get it yet."
Rong Shu said, "Lina, I appreciate your kind gesture, but I'm afraid we won't be able to have dinner together tonight."
Lina was startled, her face stiffening slightly, but she tried her best to control her expression.
"Something came up suddenly, but I'll remember this meal. We'll definitely have a chance to get together again in the future."
After what happened today, she really wasn't in the mood to go out for dinner that night.
Lina looked at Rong Shu, momentarily at a loss for words. She forced a smile and said, "Alright then!"
Rong Shu hugged her, said goodbye, and left.
Goodbye, and I hope we meet again.
Lina watched the woman's departing figure until she was far away. Then, she immediately took out her phone and made a call, her expression extremely tense and anxious.
The moment the call connected.
"Hello!"
The voice had a faint tremor.
Rong Shu and Sheng Tingze returned to the villa.
Jiang Huaixu, upon seeing Sheng Tingze, asked, "What happened?"
Sheng Tingze walked to the sofa and sat down. "It's nothing, just a fight."
Rong Shu briefly explained the situation to Jiang Huaixu.
