Chapter 503 I Don’t Agree
"How could I dislike it? It's very beautiful. I think it's prettier than the one I had before. I like it very much." Shen Jingjing couldn't put it down and admired the details. As a professional designer, Ni Man put a lot of thought into this cheongsam.
"Thank you." Shen Jingjing said sincerely.
Ni Man felt that Shen Jingjing was not being polite but really liked her, and she couldn't help but smile comfortably.
"Is Mr. Jiang busy recently?" Shen Jingjing asked casually.
Ni Man nodded: "He's very busy. I haven't seen him for almost a week."
As she spoke, she lowered her head slightly to hide the loneliness in her eyes. Although she had been mentally prepared, she still couldn't help feeling sad when she really experienced the feeling of not seeing someone for a long time or even not receiving any news from the other person.
As a woman, Shen Jingjing is very sensitive and can pick up on the other person's mood.
"Find something to do so you won't have to think too much."
Ni Man raised her head and smiled sheepishly: "It's not like I haven't done that before. I founded a brand and it eventually went bankrupt. It was a big blow to me."
“I’m not good at other things either. I wish I had the ability like you, Ms. Shen, to start a company or something.”
"I don't have any ability at all. I'm just lucky and always have help from noble people." Shen Jingjing said with a smile.
But this is what she really thinks in her heart. It is because of the trust she received from some of the old employees in the company, such as Manager Tao and Sister Min, as well as her friends in the wealthy circle, such as Sister Mo Ru and Xiwen, and Mr. Jiang who also helped her to promote the company that the company has achieved its current success.
She has always been very grateful for this.
"Don't underestimate yourself. People are willing to help you because of your own charm. Otherwise, why wouldn't you help others? A good blacksmith must be strong himself."
Shen Jingjing smiled when she heard this, and her mood, which had just been ruined by Fei Cheng, suddenly became better.
At this moment, the phone suddenly received a message.
She picked it up casually and took a look, her expression changed slightly.
It was sent by Mr. Jiang.
"Ms. Shen, are you free tonight? I'd like to treat you to dinner."
Ni Man was sitting opposite her, and Shen Jingjing felt panic for a moment, especially since Ni Man had just said that she hadn't seen Mr. Jiang for almost a week.
"Are you okay?" Ni Man noticed her expression change slightly and subconsciously showed concern.
Shen Jingjing turned off the screen and shook her head as usual: "It's okay, thank you for the cheongsam, I will definitely wear it next time there is an important occasion."
Ni Man said with a smile: "Go back and try it first. If there is any size that is not suitable, remember to tell me and I will change it for you."
As she said that, she stood up to say goodbye. Shen Jingjing didn't stay any longer and personally sent her to the company gate.
After watching Ni Man get in the car and leave, Shen Jingjing slowly took out her phone, stared at the screen for a long time, and replied: "Sorry, Mr. Jiang, I'm busy recently. Let's make an appointment next time if there is a chance."
Fei family villa.
In the evening, because Shen Jingjing suddenly canceled her evening date, Fei Yunzong returned home early after finishing his work today.
When I pushed open the door of the villa, the room was dark, which formed a sharp contrast with the bright sky outside.
Fei Yunzong was slightly startled, his brows furrowed, and he casually called out, "Mrs. Chen?"
Mrs. Chen is the nanny in the family. Whenever he comes back, Mrs. Chen will come out to greet him, help him hang up his clothes and put his shoes back in place.
But today it was quiet, without a sound around.
He changed his shoes and walked into the living room, only to find that the curtains were drawn and the light from outside only seeped in faintly, barely illuminating the furnishings in the room.
There was a person sitting faintly on the sofa, and Fei Yunzong recognized him as soon as he looked closely.
"son?"
He tried calling out and casually pressed the automatic curtain switch on the wall. A buzzing sound was heard in the room, and the curtains in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows slowly opened to both sides.
The living room gradually became brighter. When Fei Yunzong approached, he found Fei Cheng sitting on the sofa with his head buried. His hands were holding a photo frame, which contained a black and white portrait of his mother.
Fei Yunzong was shocked!
"Why did you take it down?" Fei Yunzong snatched the photo frame away, anger faintly visible on his face. He looked at his son and asked, "What's wrong with you? What happened?"
Fei Cheng slowly raised his head and looked at his father, his eyes dark: "Dad, do you still have my mom in your heart?"
"What are you asking?" Fei Yunzong frowned unhappily, raised his hand and gently wiped the non-existent dust on the photo frame.
Because of this portrait, he would wipe it himself every day.
It has an exclusive room in the house, where Fei Yunzong would drink a glass of wine alone every night and talk to the portrait.
He also mentioned not long ago that he might be taking a new step in his life. He hoped that his wife in heaven would know this and believed that she would understand.
"Then why are you still with another woman?" Fei Cheng asked with a sad face. He was completely two different people when facing his father and when facing Shen Jingjing today.
Fei Yunzong said, "Son, your mother has been dead for more than ten years. You have grown up and graduated. Don't you think your father has the right to choose his partner again?"
He slowly sat down next to his son and said carefully, "Dad thought you would support me."
"Support?" Fei Cheng laughed at himself. "Why should I support you being with someone I don't know at all? Dad, everyone says you're affectionate and loyal, but what's that now? Have you been acting all these years?"
"you……"
Fei Yunzong was speechless. There was no anger in his heart, only disappointment.
For the sake of his son, he has not remarried for so many years, and in the end he is questioned like this?
“Anyway, I don’t agree, and I’ve already expressed my opinion to Aunt Shen.”
"What do you mean?" Fei Yunzong's eyes glared. "You went to find her?"
No wonder Jingjing suddenly said that she had work to do in the evening and canceled her date with him!
"How could you do this!" Fei Yunzong's voice suddenly rose. He stood up angrily and scolded his son, "You can tell me whatever you think, but you shouldn't rashly disturb others!"
Fei Cheng stared back fearlessly: "So you are protecting her now? Dad, how is she better than Mom? You haven't had any feelings for anyone in all these years, why her? Why?!"
"Because your mother is dead!" Fei Yunzong shouted almost in anger, the veins on his forehead bulging, and his whole face flushed with anger: "Your mother has been dead for more than ten years! But your father is still alive!"
When Fei Cheng heard this, tears welled up in his eyes. He held back his tears with a look of despair and shook his head: "I don't agree, I won't agree. If you insist on being with her, don't recognize me as your son!"
