Chapter 23: Is there a girl he likes?
The call was connected.
"Professor, what's the situation with Sister Yan?" Rong Shu asked hurriedly.
Jiang Huaixu said, "I've arranged to meet with Su Qingzhi. He'll be talking to Sheng Tingchen tomorrow, so don't worry."
It turned out that the person they had arranged to meet was An Qingyue's brother, who did seem easier to approach than Sheng Tingchen.
"it is good."
The next day.
Jiang Huaixu did not come to school.
Rong Shu prepared the course materials he needed for the week. Her work was easy, so she would take walks around the school and read books in the library when she had nothing to do.
the weather is nice today.
After lunch.
I rested for a while.
Rong Shu borrowed two books from the library and wanted to go outside to bask in the sun. She found a bench to rest on and saw an elderly man with gray hair and reading glasses holding a newspaper. He was looking at the contents of the newspaper from a distance, occasionally adjusting his glasses and squinting, as if he couldn't see it very clearly.
Rong Shu saw the old man from afar and recognized him at a glance. After hesitating for a moment, she stepped forward and said, "Teacher Fu."
Upon hearing this, Old Fu looked up at Rong Shu, took off his reading glasses, and took a closer look, but didn't recognize her for a moment.
Rong Shu seemed somewhat at a loss and explained, "Teacher Fu, I am Rong Shu."
Mr. Fu suddenly realized.
Professor Fu was the president of Peking University and Jiang Huaixu's former mentor. He has since retired.
She studied under Jiang Huaixu. Although Professor Fu had already retired, he still gave her a lot of guidance and even took her to a seminar during her university years, saying that she was his most admired student after Jiang Huaixu.
It can be said that she was the most honored among Jiang Huaixu's students.
Professor Fu personally introduced her to professors at top universities abroad, hoping she would continue her studies and pursue a doctorate. However, she had already secretly submitted her resume to Yunshan without their knowledge.
Having missed this job application opportunity, she didn't know when she would be able to be by Sheng Tingchen's side again.
She only told them the news after she passed several rounds of interviews and assessments.
She will always remember.
Old Fu looked unwell and left without saying a word.
Rong Shu knew that Old Master Fu was very disappointed and angry.
She and Mr. Fu had not been in contact for nearly two years.
Seeing her again now, she felt a pang of inexplicable shame, and even hesitated to go up and greet her.
Old Fu glanced at her, said nothing, handed her the newspaper, and said, "Come here and read the newspaper to me."
Rong Shu stepped forward, took the bag, and sat down next to Old Master Fu.
"Read this passage."
Rong Shu read it aloud word by word. Her voice was melodious and clear, pure and powerful, and very pleasant to listen to.
Old Fu held his cane with both hands and listened quietly and attentively.
After reading it.
Rong Shu looked at Old Master Fu.
Master Fu said, "Read the following passage as well."
Rong Shu read for nearly twenty minutes, and her mouth became dry.
"Alright, that's enough for now!"
Rong Shu put down the newspaper in her hand.
A brief silence.
Old Fu asked, "Did you resign from Yunshan?"
Rong Shu gave a hesitant "Mmm," and replied, "I just left my job not long ago, and I'm currently working as Professor Jiang's assistant."
Old Fu didn't say anything.
At this time.
A middle-aged man in a black suit walked over, saw the old man, bowed respectfully and handed him the phone, saying, "Mr. Fu, this is the old lady's phone call."
Mr. Fu took the phone, held it to his ear, and spoke to her for a few minutes.
"understood."
I hung up the phone.
Old Master Fu looked at Rong Shu and said, "I have to go back now. You should go ahead and get busy too."
"Okay, Teacher Fu, please take care on your way."
The middle-aged man helped the elderly man to his feet and walked toward a low-key black Hongqi car parked on the side of the road.
Rong Shu stood there watching Fu Lao's departing figure, feeling an indescribable sadness in her heart. She was probably really disappointed in herself.
Until the vehicle slowly drove away.
Rong Shu took the book and left. She had been sitting for a while and her calves were a little sore. She walked towards the administration building.
inside the car.
The middle-aged man, driving the car, said, "Old Master Sheng must be full of ambition this time, ready to have a good match with you and get back at you."
Old Fu snorted irritably, "Who's afraid of him!"
Today is the Fu family banquet. The Sheng and Fu families have had a close relationship since the older generation, and they have intermarried. Sheng Tingze's mother, Fu Ying, is the second daughter of the old lady of the Fu family, so the two families often visit each other and have meals together.
Mr. Fu returned home.
The Sheng family's car was already parked in the parking lot. As soon as they entered the house, they heard laughter and conversation coming from the living room.
When Madam Fu saw him return, she couldn't help but say to Madam Sheng, "That old man can't stay still all day; he's always running off to Peking University."
Old Fu stepped forward and said, "If I don't go to places where young people are energetic, am I supposed to be surrounded by a bunch of old men every day?"
Madam Fu shook her head helplessly, "Fine, whatever you say is right, okay?"
Madam Sheng said, "Guolin is right. Spending more time with young people will help you maintain a youthful mindset."
Old Fu sat on the sofa and said to Old Sheng, "You should come out with me more often when you have nothing to do. All you do is fish all day, but I've never seen you fish very well."
Old Master Sheng couldn't help but roll his eyes, "That's still better than you."
"Come on, let's have a competition now. Zhang Zheng, go and get the fishing rods ready."
"Let's have the competition, let's go now."
"..."
Madam Fu and Madam Sheng looked at the two of them and smiled helplessly.
Before dinner.
The Fu family members in Beijing gradually returned to their old house.
The eldest son and daughter-in-law of the Sheng family, Shen Yurong, also came.
late.
Sheng Tingchen and Sheng Tingze arrived at the Fu family's residence.
The two met in the parking lot.
Sheng Tingze greeted him.
The two entered together.
Once inside the living room, I greeted each of the elders.
Sheng Tingze is outgoing and eloquent, which makes him especially popular with the elders.
"It's been a long time since I've seen Tingze. I heard your mom started a game company and recently landed a big project."
Sheng Tingze showed no modesty, saying, "With my abilities, securing a big project is a piece of cake."
Fu Ying stared at her son, "Still so immature, just like a little kid."
"There's nothing wrong with it. With Tingze's personality, he'll definitely find it easy to get a girlfriend in the future."
"Then I'll take your kind words with me, Grandma."
"Does that mean you have a girl you like?"
Sheng Tingze smiled and said, "Not now, but definitely in the future."
Dinner is served.
Inside the large restaurant, a round table that could seat thirty people was set up. The two families took their seats and chatted amongst themselves, creating a lively and harmonious atmosphere.
Sheng Tingchen chatted with Fu Xingzhou, the eldest grandson of the Fu family.
"What happened between you and Dongxing?"
Sheng Tingchen sipped his red wine and said, "It's nothing, it's already resolved."
Su Qingzhi went to see him early this morning, and then had lunch with Song Chengde and Song Yan. Song Chengde made concessions on the cooperation, and Sheng Tingchen finally gave up.
That's the end of this matter.
However, while Dongxing suffered some losses, it was still fortunate compared to losing its cooperation with Yunshan.
Fu Xingzhou didn't ask any further questions and continued to talk about other business topics.
At this time.
Fu Xingzhou's daughter walked over with a piece of candy, her voice sweet and soft: "Daddy, have this."
The little girl is five years old this year. She has two little braids and her round, chubby face is very cute.
Fu Xingzhou stroked his daughter's head, bent down and took a bite of the orange-flavored candy she offered, saying affectionately, "So sweet."
The little girl smiled broadly, revealing two rows of tiny white teeth, and then picked up the candy in her other hand and offered it to Sheng Tingchen, "Uncle, would you like some?"
Sheng Tingchen's gaze fell on the little girl, his eyes softening.
