Chapter 767 Please come to the school immediately.
When Wen Shuyi left Jiang Yuanliang's house, her eyes were still red.
Jiang Yuanmao felt sorry for his wife and gently held her hand: "What did you two talk about? Why are you crying like this?"
"We talked about some of Jingjing's past." Wen Shuyi couldn't say much. At this moment, thinking about Shen Jingjing's past made her feel heartbroken. She only said, "I hope she and Yuanliang can be happy. She has suffered so much in her life, it's time for her to enjoy happiness."
Jiang Yuanmao didn't ask any further questions, but he could sense that his wife's attitude towards the two of them had become even more resolute.
"Dad can listen to some of what you say. Please help Yuanliang persuade Dad properly."
"I will."
As Wen Shuyi spoke, she couldn't help but look up at the upstairs. Jiang Yuanmao, seeing this, said, "Yuanliang will probably let her stay here tonight."
If that's the case, it would be an unprecedented moment. Although Jiang Yuanliang had tried dating a few girlfriends, he had never spent the night alone with any of them.
Wen Shuyi smiled. Shen Jingjing was different from Jiang Yuanliang in the end.
How can passive interaction be compared to active liking?
The next day, Shen Jingjing was awakened by the faint sound of flowing water.
She was a little dazed when she opened her eyes, and it wasn't until Jiang Yuanliang came out of the bathroom in his bathrobe that she came to her senses.
"woke up?"
Shen Jingjing sat up slightly: "What time is it?"
"It's 8:30. I have a very important project to discuss this morning. Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"I'll get up and get something to eat, then we'll go out together."
Shen Jingjing was about to get up when Jiang Yuanliang pressed her back down: "You went to bed late last night, so rest a little longer."
Shen Jingjing blushed slightly and didn't insist any further, only reminding, "Then remember to eat something."
"Mmm." Jiang Yuanliang leaned down and gently kissed her forehead. After standing up, he seemed to suddenly remember something and looked at Shen Jingjing, asking, "There's a very important occasion the day after tomorrow, and I want to take you there. Do you want to go?"
Shen Jingjing hesitated for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Okay, is there anything I need to prepare?"
"Just dress formally."
After he left, Shen Jingjing wrapped herself in the blanket on the bed. Her heart skipped a beat before she realized it was racing. Looking back on last night, it all felt like a dream.
It was a distorted sense of happiness that dazzled her.
Shen Ci also woke up early in the morning. As usual, her mother had already prepared breakfast every time she got up and went downstairs.
There was no sound downstairs today, only Yoda lying on the sofa staring at her.
I peeked into the kitchen; it was spotless and showed no signs of having been used.
Shen Ci blinked in confusion, wondering if her mother had drunk too much last night and was still asleep.
So she poured a cup of hot water, took it to her mother's door and knocked, but no one answered for a long time.
Suddenly feeling tense, Shen Ci quickly pushed open the door to her mother's bedroom, only to find the room bright with sunlight and the bed neatly made, clearly unoccupied.
Shen Ci stood at the door with the water in her hand, stunned for two seconds before finally reacting.
Oh my god!
Did Mother spend the night at Uncle Jiang's house?
She couldn't suppress the smile on her face; she was truly happy for her mother, because this was a huge step forward for her!
The sudden ringing of her phone interrupted Shen Ci's thoughts. She answered it without hesitation and heard Su Zheyuan on the other end of the line blurt out, "Aci, would you mind coming with me to Master Yu's birthday banquet the day after tomorrow?"
Su Zheyuan's sudden words startled Shen Ci, who then reminded her, "You remember me, right? He's Master Yu, the one who looked at the feng shui for your cemetery!"
"Of course!" Shen Ci had already realized what was going on: "The day after tomorrow? Why did you suddenly decide to take me?"
Su Zheyuan said in a nonchalant tone, "They will all be prominent figures in Longcheng, but they are all of a different generation than me. If you come with me, we can at least have a chat."
"Master Yu is highly respected in Longcheng, so I definitely have to go. If you're free, why don't you come along? You've invited him before, so you're not complete strangers."
Shen Ci had always been thinking about Master Yu, but she never had the chance to contact him again.
After consulting with the master about the feng shui of her cemetery, Shen Ci knew that this master was truly skilled.
The upper class believes in these things, and the wealthier and more powerful people are, the more they believe in them. Shen Ci herself is no exception, especially after her rebirth, she has no choice but to believe in these metaphysical doctrines.
So she immediately nodded and agreed: "Sure, but I can't go empty-handed. Do you know what the master likes?"
Su Zheyuan laughed upon hearing this: "Master Yu lacks nothing. Not to mention his birthday celebration, he often receives treasures from others even on ordinary days."
"So everyone knows this well and understands it in their hearts. Giving gifts is nothing special; it's more practical and auspicious to just give a red envelope."
"But since you're coming with me, I'll just accept this red envelope on behalf of both of us, so you don't need to spend any more money."
Upon hearing this, Shen Ci hurriedly said, "That won't do! I must also prepare a red envelope to show my respect."
Upon hearing that Shen Ci was going to pay, Su Zheyuan's heart skipped a beat. He tentatively asked, "How much do you want to pay?"
Judging from his tone, he was afraid that Shen Ci would overcharge him and put him in a difficult position. He was not as wealthy as Shen Ci.
"How much do you think is appropriate?" Shen Ci asked.
Su Zheyuan hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "I think 88.8 yuan is quite auspicious."
As a red envelope, this amount is already quite large, but it is not much to "pay respects" to Master Yu. There will definitely be someone else who gives an even larger amount. Master Yu has never lacked loyal followers.
"Okay, I'll take your suggestion into consideration."
Su Zheyuan was immediately relieved: "Then I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow."
As soon as Su Zheyuan hung up the phone, an unfamiliar number called again.
Shen Ci hesitated for a moment before pressing the answer button, and heard a cold female voice on the other end of the phone: "Hello, are you Shen Min's parent?"
"Yes, that's me. And who are you?"
Shen Ci calmly inquired, only to hear the other party reply coldly and forcefully, "Then please come to the school immediately. Shen Min got into a fight with a classmate, and we need your assistance in handling it!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Ci's brows furrowed into a deep frown.
Xiaomin got into a fight with her classmate?
Without much thought, Shen Ci replied, "Okay, I'll be right there."
The other party hung up the phone immediately, which shows how arrogant and rude the teacher's attitude was.
But Shen Ci didn't care about anything else. She went downstairs, grabbed her car keys, and headed to "Guoan Middle School".
In the classroom office of the administration building, Shen Min and two other female classmates stood in front of their homeroom teacher, Ms. Li. Shen Min lowered her head, nervously fidgeting with her fingers, her lips pressed tightly together in unease.
In contrast, the other two female classmates looked at her with indifferent expressions and smug, provocative eyes.
