Chapter 117
Both of them are very active people. Because they have been separated for too long, they are really anxious inside, and now it is almost time.
——This powerful old man of the Shen family can no longer keep an eye on them all the time.
Shen Antang's attention span is limited.
He was anxious to go abroad for treatment. He had a lot of things to worry about during this period. He started coughing from time to time and felt weak. He used to be in good health, but since he was affected by his family, he became more and more worried.
Probably at this point, everyone is afraid of death. Now, if they feel a little uncomfortable, they will feel dissatisfied and think that they are not as good as before.
Of course, it is not as good as before. At his age, the feeling of aging every year is very obvious, but Shen Antang does not accept it.
In his mind, as long as he spent money on treatment, he could return to his previous state. If he didn't recover, it was because he didn't spend enough money, or the doctors and equipment were not good enough, and it couldn't be his fault.
But his physical condition was irreversible. If he was not satisfied with something, he would find a way to solve it. If he could not solve it, Shen Antang would feel even more unwilling. His mentality seemed like a vicious cycle.
Even if the foreign doctor was a god, he couldn't save him. Shen Mingzheng knew this very well, but he didn't point it out.
Even if someone around him had told him, Shen Antang, who has always been self-centered, would not believe it.
Naturally, he left some people at home before he went abroad, but Shen Mingzheng was able to create an illusion to deceive him before, and now that he was not there, the few people left naturally could not do anything to him.
Su Ning was also aware of this.
So on the day Shen Antang left, he had already arranged things in Haicheng and planned to go to the capital to meet Shen Mingzheng himself.
He also knew that Shen Mingzheng had gone to the airport to see him off today. When Su Ning arrived in the capital, Shen Antang's private plane had already flown out of the country.
So, he took this opportunity to go to where Shen Mingzheng was staying temporarily. In order to facilitate his work, Shen Mingzheng did not live in the secluded old house of the Shen family, but lived in the center of the capital. When he came back, he would be able to see him.
——This is the surprise that Su Ning prepared. Of course, a “surprise” cannot be announced in advance.
Therefore, he did not tell Shen Mingzheng before, and naturally did not tell anyone around him.
But he waited and waited, the soup for dinner was ready and had been hot for a long time, but no one came back.
At first Su Ning thought that the capital might be busy, so he did not suspect anything and just continued to wait. Naturally, he was not in a hurry to contact anyone.
But what he didn't know was that Shen Mingzheng was no longer in the capital.
After patiently seeing Shen Antang off, Shen Mingzheng arranged everything, immediately got on the bus back to Haicheng, and finally returned home in the evening.
The place where he and Su Ning lived was his only home.
As soon as he stepped into the house, he smelled the scent of the house, which was the home fragrance that Su Ning picked. At that moment, his heart was at peace. In order to protect this home, he was willing to give anything in the process.
When he came back, he also prepared a surprise for Su Ning and brought back a big bouquet of roses.
But after waiting for a while, the flowers had been arranged, the house had been tidied, and he had even prepared a candlelight dinner, but Su Ning had not returned yet.
Is Haicheng so busy recently?
Because he was in a good mood, he didn't think too much about it for the time being. He thought of Su Ning in his heart and waited patiently and full of hope.
In order to maintain the "surprise", the two waited until almost eleven o'clock in the evening before they realized something was wrong.
You know, after a couple gets married, even if they are busy with work, they generally won't stay in the company too late. They have developed the habit of going home early as much as possible. Even if they haven't finished their work, they won't stay in the company if they can do it at home.
At this time, the two couldn't help but look for someone.
And at first I didn't dare to say it directly. I was still testing the waters when sending messages on the phone, asking the other person where he was in a veiled way, and then I realized the truth.
Then Su Ning and Shen Mingzheng made a video call, and the two of them sat in silence for a long time, staring at the familiar background in the video.
In the end, no one knew who laughed first; both of them were amused and speechless.
——Although there is a tacit understanding and everyone knows to look for each other today, it seems that this tacit understanding is not fully used in the right place.
Mingming is usually a sharp person, but at this moment he was stupid. Although there were twists and turns, the two met in Haicheng as scheduled the next day.
The two trips to Su'ning in the past two days were not as well prepared as yesterday. Last night, the two of them ate the dinners they had prepared "face to face" with video chat. When he came back today, he was quite tired.
Before he had time to wash up, as soon as he entered the room, Shen Mingzheng, who couldn't wait, picked him up and pressed him against the wall and kissed him.
A short separation makes the new marriage better than a new one, and the couple quarreled from broad daylight till dusk.
Shen Mingzheng still buried his head in the crook of his shoulder, kissing the side of his face non-stop. Su Ning felt that his body was a little sticky, and that someone was too clingy, but he was too lazy to get up at this moment, and his waist was still a little sore, so he just leaned there without saying anything.
After this period of time, the two of them finally had the energy to talk about serious matters in the evening.
Su Ning asked him, "Won't someone find out?"
"It's okay." Shen Mingzheng hugged his waist, "It's okay even if someone finds us now."
What happened before was just an act and has passed. Moreover, Shen Antang had no intention of separating the two. When he left, he hypocritically suggested to Shen Mingzheng that he go back to Haicheng and say a few nice words to coax the man back. It didn't matter even if Su Ning had a bad temper, after all, he had been wronged.
For the Shen family, Su Ning is so useful that they naturally have to use him for their own purposes.
He wanted to see the future head of the Shen family grasp the balance point of the contradiction, not letting emotions affect major events, but relying on emotions to keep outstanding people around him.
After this period of time, the busiest time has passed, and he and Su Ning have to gradually "reconcile" on the surface. Haicheng and the capital need to stabilize after this period of time.
Besides, Shen Mingzheng didn't want to pretend any longer. One month would be enough for him to endure this.
"We don't need to live like this for too long," he kissed Su Ning's forehead and assured her, "Shen Antang will no longer have any influence in the near future."
Su Ning looked at him and said "hmm".
It was obvious that Shen Mingzheng still felt guilty towards Su Ning when he talked about this matter. Although this was a decision they had discussed together and it was bound to go through some twists and turns before it could be accomplished, he still felt indebted.
Su Ning is indifferent. He is not someone who cannot stand the setbacks.
And they had naturally made plans for "reconciliation" before, but they did not expect it to attract public attention.
Originally, this play was only performed for a small number of people in the industry, including Shen Antang, but this is no longer the case.
Nowadays, many people have been brainwashed by some specious news. The stories of family feuds among the rich are so exciting that they are even more thrilling than prime-time TV dramas. Even after some time, the popularity has not subsided.
Especially a few days later, the fact that Shen Mingzheng returned to Haicheng was no longer concealed.
Even Shen Antang knew about this and supported him very much.
"I think Su Ning has calmed down enough. You are in this position now, and your family must be stable. He is a good helper, and if he can forgive you this time, he will naturally not say anything in the future," Shen Antang, who is abroad, sent a message. "I heard that Su Ning has invested a lot recently. You should help him more when you go back, whether it is money or connections, and support him as much as possible. This is nothing to the Shen family. As long as he is soft-hearted and devoted to you, everything belongs to the Shen family."
He was generous. But considering Shen Antang's poor family situation, it was impossible for him to use this to educate Shen Mingzheng.
Since he said so, Shen Mingzheng naturally gave Su Ning more support and help in public.
He remembered his goal. If he wanted to change this circle more profoundly, he couldn't get around the Shen family.
Moreover, many basic constructions in the entertainment industry require efforts from all aspects, such as the film industry, which is a money-burning job. Even if Haicheng has made a lot of money, it is still not enough. In this case, it is natural to take over the Shen family and do what he wants to do.
However, he still had some strange experiences in the process.
For example, when he officially returned to Haicheng and went to Guangying Entertainment to find Su Ning openly, he was stopped by the front desk security for the first time when he entered the Guangying Entertainment building.
Then, the professional front desk staff asked him in a businesslike manner: "Excuse me, do you have an appointment?"
Shen Mingzheng was very honest: "No."
He never made an appointment when he came to Su'ning.
"You can't just walk in without a reservation," the receptionist said. "Sorry, this is our company's policy."
Shen Mingzheng: "..."
He heard that his story about Su Ning had spread widely. Guangying Entertainment was indeed a leading company on the Internet, and everyone was good at surfing the Internet. Moreover, everyone had witnessed that President Su had been working overtime every day recently. He looked haggard and often absent-minded.
This is ironclad proof that one can stay strong despite being heartbroken!
In fact, Su Ning was busy because when Shen Mingzheng took over the Shen family, he told him everything at the same time. The two of them discussed and made decisions together, so it was natural that they were busy. He was not used to being apart from them, so it was normal for him to be a little absent-minded recently.
The front desk staff of Guangying Entertainment and the assistant in the president's office were very considerate, and as an assistant, it was also their job to guess what the president meant. In this case, they did not let Shen Mingzheng in.
Shen Mingzheng left without arguing.
Su Ning soon found out. He was a little amused, but of course he would not blame the assistant and the front desk. They were doing things according to the company's rules, and the illusion was created by themselves, not anyone else's fault.
He immediately called Shen Mingzheng, but Shen Mingzheng didn't seem angry. Instead, he seemed inexplicably happy. Then he told Su Ning that there was something he had always wanted to do but hadn't done it yet.
Su Ning didn't quite understand, but soon got the answer.
Shen Mingzheng did not give up after leaving. Although others could not enter, the gifts could at least enter.
Soon, the front desk received a huge bouquet of 999 roses. It was so exaggerated that everyone in the company could see it when it was transported there. The words written on the card were an undisguised confession of love.
——Love you forever.
