Chapter 54: In the ambiguous period?
She suddenly felt that there was no need to be so shy and entangled about many things.
Just because she was lucky enough to be reborn once doesn't mean she will be lucky enough to be reborn a second time. No one can predict what the future will hold, so it's better to follow your heart and cherish the present.
Seeing her daughter lowering her head, blushing and not saying anything, Li Manqing smiled knowingly and passed a slice of orange to her lips: "So it's the ambiguous period?"
Shi Qing didn't answer. Instead, she raised her head and cunningly threw the question back: "Mom, what do you think of Sheng Han?"
"Me?"
Li Manqing thought about it and commented seriously.
"I feel pretty good about him. When he was in school, I thought he was rebellious and unsteady. But after he started studying hard, I realized that he's not a bad kid at heart. He's a determined and motivated kid."
"In the past few years, I have also seen several movies he starred in. His acting is good and he is very calm."
Then he said with an ambiguous look in his eyes, "Besides, I've seen a lot of talk about the two of you as a couple. As soon as this incident happened, he rushed over from the set and protected you in front of so many people at the police station. That kind of love can't be faked."
"Mom! Why are you still paying attention to this?" Shi Qing was shy and embarrassed. She never thought that Teacher Li, who was always serious and old-fashioned, actually knew about CP and even touched the super topic.
"My daughter is a big star now, so as a mother, of course I have to keep up with fashion trends and know your latest news!" Li Manqing said confidently, "Besides, knowing more about the latest happenings in the entertainment industry will give me something to talk about with my students."
Shi Qing was completely speechless.
Li Manqing changed the subject, adding a hint of worry to her tone: "However, Shenghan's family..." The wealthy family is not that simple.
"Mom, you don't have to think so much." Shi Qing blurted out.
They both got their marriage certificates, and Sheng Han's father was quite satisfied with her, so there were no such problems.
However, Li Manqing misunderstood what her daughter meant. She thought her daughter meant that their relationship had not reached that stage yet. She sighed, her eyes full of heartache.
"Yeah, who can predict the future? You guys might not even make it that far."
"But if you want to have a relationship, you can still give it a try. You've never had a serious relationship in your life."
My daughter was a good girl when she was in school, and she devoted herself to studying and dancing.
After finally getting into college, she still wanted to encourage her daughter to look for boys she likes and try to get in touch with them.
As a result, during her freshman year, something unexpected happened at home and my daughter had to drop out of school. She plunged headfirst into the entertainment industry, working hard to make movies to pay off her family's debts, and she never had the chance to experience love.
Seeing her mother about to sink into another melancholy about the past, Shi Qing quickly interrupted her and said coquettishly, "Okay, Mom, I won't talk about me anymore. Tell me, how are your students this year? Are there any interesting things happening at school?"
The sunlight outside the window was warm and gentle, dispelling some of the smell of disinfectant in the ward.
Li Manqing was sitting on the edge of the bed, whispering to her daughter about interesting things at school.
Shi Qing listened quietly, the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously, and a gentle smile appeared in her eyes.
After the infusion, the doctor gave Shi Qing another comprehensive examination. After confirming that all her physical indicators had returned to normal, he finally nodded and allowed her to be discharged from the hospital.
When Sheng Han learned that they were going back, he had already been waiting outside and drove to pick them up personally.
In front of Li Manqing, both of them kept a safe distance, and even their eye contact seemed restrained and distant.
Li Manqing quickly started chatting familiarly with Wu Xiao next to her, talking about everything from the weather to work, and the atmosphere was harmonious and natural.
After safely sending her daughter to the hotel, Li Manqing picked up her luggage and said goodbye.
Shi Qing held her hand, feeling a little reluctant, wanting her to stay a little longer.
"No." Li Manqing smiled and shook her head. She reached out to tidy up a strand of hair on her daughter's temples, her eyes full of love and reassurance. "Seeing that you're okay, Mom is completely relieved. I still have classes at school, and the students are waiting for me."
Shi Qing looked at the fine lines at the corners of her mother's eyes, left by time and hard work. Her heart softened, and she said softly, "Mom, don't teach the senior class next year. It's too tiring."
My mother used to be a senior mathematics teacher at Anluo No. 1 High School. However, after my father fell ill and the family was forced into huge debt, she resolutely quit her job and started a cram school outside the school.
Only after they had completely paid off everyone's debts did my mother accept to be rehired by Anluo No. 1 High School. This time there was no official position, but my mother was happy to teach at the school.
"I know you feel bad for me." Li Manqing smiled and patted the back of her daughter's hand, gently admonishing, "You too, you just got out of the hospital. Don't rush to start work. Ask the crew for leave and have a good rest for a day."
"Yeah." Shi Qing nodded obediently.
Shi Qing watched her mother get into a taxi until the familiar figure completely disappeared in the traffic. Then she withdrew her gaze and turned to walk into the hotel.
Shi Qing didn't listen to Teacher Li's advice in the end and rested peacefully in the hotel for another day.
The next morning, she appeared on the set of the "Sudian" new product advertisement for the Chinese Valentine's Day.
This announcement is of extraordinary significance to both her and Sheng Han.
"Sudian" is a niche pastry brand under Shengxin Group, founded by Sheng Han's mother, Ms. Zhou Yuanxin.
There is a handmade pastry shop at the entrance of Anluo No. 1 High School. Shi Qing often went there to eat there when she was a child. However, after entering the circle, she has been busy and required to control her figure, so she hasn't eaten there for a long time.
What's more, this advertisement was arranged by Sheng Han's father himself.
The air conditioning in the studio was turned up high, and it seemed like two different worlds compared to the scorching sun outside.
"Oh my God, I never expected it! Our small brand actually invited Mr. Sheng!" A young girl in charge of the venue suppressed her excitement, covered her mouth, and glanced at the figure in the rest area not far away with sparkling eyes.
"Haven't you seen our gossip group?" The boy in charge of props lowered his voice and approached mysteriously, "This guy is the biological son of Chairman Sheng of our Shengxin Group!"
Many people know that Sheng Han is the nephew of Boss Qiankun, but he has never made public the fact that Sheng Han is the son of the chairman of Shengxin Group, and many people still don’t know about it.
"Fuck!" The young girl working on the stage exclaimed subconsciously.
The girl suddenly covered her mouth and glanced guiltily in Sheng Han's direction, feeling like her heart was about to jump out of her throat.
"Is this true? It's all over. Did he hear what I just said? Why did I feel like he glanced over here?"
