Chapter 54 Women Don't Need to Fight Over Men
Xia Yini smiled slightly, "I heard you live here, so I came to see you. Won't you invite me in?"
"Of course, please come in."
Xia Yini had considered that Sheng Tingwang might be keeping a mistress.
She hadn't expected the room to be so big.
"This house..." Xia Yini turned to look at Wen Shuyi, her expression still as calm as a breeze, "...was it bought for you by Sheng Tingwang?"
"No, no, no...it's not like that." Wen Shuyi frantically denied it. "Aunt Wang and I work for him. We're nannies, servants. This is Third Master's own house. He prepared the documents a while ago, wanting to transfer the house to you. Didn't he tell you?"
Xia Yini raised her eyebrows slightly.
He seemed to believe, yet also seemed not to believe.
"He hasn't told me yet." Xia Yini's gaze fell on Wen Shuyi's face. "This house is quite big. It must be very hard to work here, right?"
Wen Shuyi poured a cup of coffee and handed it to Xia Yini. "Aunt Wang is in charge of cooking and cleaning, and I am in charge of taking care of the children and cleaning. We work together quite well and occasionally have time to rest."
Xia Yini looked around the room before sitting down. "Well, you're quite capable. To be honest, you're a member of the elite social circle, so why did you choose to work as Sheng Tingwang's servant? Are you still hung up on him?"
"Of course not."
Now that Xia Yini knows some things about her and Sheng Tingwang.
Wen Shuyi didn't intend to hide anything. "My working for Third Master this time was purely coincidental. Don't overthink it, Yi Ni."
Xia Yini picked up her coffee and took a sip.
With a hint of disdain, she put the book down, looked up, and said, "I can't help but overthink it, Shuyi. No matter how much ulterior motive you had when you brought me and Sheng Tingwang together, my relationship with him has indeed changed. I came here today to talk to you about your future."
She took a check out of her bag.
The number above is two million.
He gently placed it on the table. "Here is two million. I want you to take this money and disappear from Huacheng forever. I don't care if the girl you're with, Duoduo, is Sheng Tingwang's child or not. Sheng Tingwang's first child will only be mine."
Wen Shuyi picked up the check and examined it carefully.
Cash withdrawal.
Xia Yini is much more upright and honest than Xu Chuyin.
Give me back the money.
"I understand what you mean, Yini. I will take Duoduo away."
Xia Yini breathed a sigh of relief.
She was extremely concerned about saving face, but fortunately Wen Shuyi gave her face.
"Shuyi, given our relationship, it's really not right for us to fall out over a man. Luckily, you understand me. Consider this two million as your and Duoduo's living expenses from now on." She took a deep breath. "Everyone has an ex, right? Forget about him, Shuyi. You will definitely find a better man than Sheng Tingwang."
Wen Shu also smiled.
He got two million for no reason.
She was genuinely happy. "Thank you, Yi Ni."
There were no harsh words spoken.
She didn't tear herself apart over a man.
Xia Yini is more rational than Xu Chuyin.
Wen Shuyi wasn't that persistent either.
We bid farewell to Xia Yini.
Wen Shuyi slept soundly for the first time since arriving in Huacheng.
Early in the morning.
She dragged her luggage and took Duoduo to the bank first. After transferring all the money from the check to her own bank card, she boarded a train to a certain city.
Wen Shu also had no purpose.
She wanted to take Duoduo on a trip first.
As for where to settle down, she hasn't decided yet.
No matter where she is, if Sheng Ting wants to find her, he will find her; hiding won't help.
She knew.
All communication methods are still retained.
Two hours later.
Sheng Tingwang returned to the Jiangyang Avenue residential area.
He held a bouquet of white roses and a Transformers toy he had bought for Duoduo.
He has been reflecting on his actions recently.
Perhaps, his educational theories are too cruel for a two- or three-year-old child.
He had high hopes for this child.
He wanted to groom him as his successor, so he was exceptionally strict with him.
Does this mean he doesn't love the child, or even dislikes the child?
of course not.
But he really needs to change.
He entered the password and walked into the 400-square-meter apartment.
The air also carried the scent of Wen Shuyi's usual skincare products.
He felt somewhat at ease.
"Wen Shuyi".
"Dodo, look what Daddy bought for you!"
"Is it due to neglect?"
"Dodo?"
no one.
He felt a void in his heart.
He hurriedly took out his phone and dialed Wen Shuyi's number.
Fortunately, this time her phone was working.
"Feed?" The woman on the train answered her phone.
"Wen Shuyi, where did you take your son?" Sheng Tingwang loosened his tie, his tone displeased. "Can you please stop running around like that? The flu is really bad outside lately, and Duoduo is still so young..."
"I put a mask on him," Wen Shuyi said calmly. "What do you need?"
Sheng Tingwang hesitated for a moment, then thought of apologizing first, "That night... I'm sorry, does your neck still hurt? Actually, I was planning to go to Bincheng with you after the engagement, but I didn't expect you to go by yourself."
"Oh, you don't need to come with me. Since you're engaged, you should spend more time with Xia Yini. I'm taking Duoduo on a trip, so don't worry about us. We'll go back when we're done having fun."
Wen Shuyi spoke of it in a very understated way.
Sheng Ting was furious at what he had overheard.
tourism?
"Where did you go on vacation? Why didn't you tell me?"
"Didn't I tell you? It's nothing, I'm hanging up now."
Before Sheng Tingwang could speak again...
Wen Shuyi hung up the phone immediately.
When I called back, the phone was switched off.
Sheng Tingwang dared not think about other things, but not thinking about it didn't mean it wouldn't happen.
It seems he's messed things up again.
He dialed a number and called Gu Lin, "Come over and have a drink with me."
"Don't you want your stomach anymore? Sheng Tingwang, you still dare to drink?" Gu Lin's tone was tinged with helplessness. "What happened this time?"
"Wen Shuyi has run away again." Sheng Tingwang said this with a bitter smile on his lips. "If you don't come, I'll come looking for you."
"Come, come, come, I'll be right there."
When Gu Lin came.
Sheng Tingwang had already drunk half a bottle of red wine.
He was so frightened that he poured the other half of the bottle into the toilet.
"Are you trying to kill me?" Gu Lin took off his coat and threw it aside. "Sheng Tingwang, you just had surgery, and then you drank alcohol. Does alcohol solve anything, or what?"
"No." Sheng Tingwang shrugged.
"You know you shouldn't, yet you still drank like this?"
Sheng Tingwang chuckled, leaning back lazily on the sofa. "Gu Lin, tell me, what's wrong with me? Was it a mistake to bring Wen Shuyi back? Should I have let her live in Bincheng, raise our son, or let her go find her own happiness? Whether she wants to marry Li Jiangyan or anyone else, I wouldn't care. I should have set her free... Tell me, was I wrong?"
Gu Lin looked at Sheng Tingwang's helpless smile.
Sigh.
Who would have thought that a soldier who kills without blinking an eye on the battlefield would be troubled by love?
"I heard from Zhang Lun that you got your marriage certificate without informing Wen Shuyi?"
Sheng Tingwang nodded, "That's right."
"Since you've already registered your marriage with Wen Shuyi, why are you still engaged to Xia Yini?" Gu Lin couldn't understand what Sheng Tingwang was trying to do. "Didn't you ever consider that you're hurting two women?"
Sheng Tingwang took a deep breath. "Old Master Sheng doesn't have much time left. It's his wish to see me and the Xia family get married. I can't refuse."
"You want to repay the Sheng family's favor, but now..." Since it's already happened, it's too late to say anything. "...You've really gotten yourself into big trouble."
