Meng Sheng and Qiao Na arrived at Peking University almost on time.
The seminar was not large, but it was spectacular. In addition to the speeches in the conference hall, there was also a special exhibition hall where each art gallery had its collections, as well as some handicrafts on display.
This exhibition hall is a joint effort of six art galleries to display works of all types and themes for students to appreciate.
Meng Sheng was scheduled to attend the second public speaking class in the afternoon.
The opening ceremony in the morning went smoothly, and she met someone who surprised her.
Pei Sui.
In front of others, the two of them just nodded and greeted each other.
When they went to the cafeteria to eat at noon, Pei Sui didn't know how he found her accurately among the crowd.
Anyway, he just walked to her side quietly.
Meng Sheng was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile, "Why did Lawyer Pei come to this seminar?"
It was understandable that he came to the previous Peking University anniversary celebration. After all, he was a well-known elite lawyer in the legal world and the second young master of the Pei family.
However, the participants in this Kyoto University art seminar were generally artists and people from the education department.
It was indeed a surprise that he would come.
Pei Sui turned his head to look at her lightly made-up face. She was naturally very pretty, so even if her makeup was light, it couldn't hide her beauty.
His eyes moved slightly, as if he had thought of something, and he raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, and only said, "It's hard to refuse such kindness."
This sentence is not difficult to understand. The school invited him warmly and he couldn't refuse.
Meng Sheng nodded and jokingly said, "It seems that the Peking University authorities value Lawyer Pei, a well-known Peking University alumnus, very much."
Pei Sui glanced at the cunning in her eyes and said calmly, "Thank you. I look forward to Director Meng's seminar this afternoon."
“…”
This was the first time she heard the title "Director Meng" from Pei Sui.
Meng Sheng's brows moved slightly, and an outrageous idea suddenly came to his mind.
He wouldn't be here just for her class in the afternoon, right?
It's really outrageous.
It's impossible to think about it.
There was an activity at school today, so the food was particularly good. As soon as she sat down, she turned her head and found Pei Sui sitting next to her.
She glanced at him, and when she saw him looking back at her, she smiled. She listened to a few polite words from the people at the dinner table, and then she heard a few WeChat notification sounds from her phone.
After greeting everyone, she took it out and looked at it calmly.
It was from a private investigator.
[Ms. Meng, the matter you requested has been completed.]
Meng Sheng curled his lips and typed a reminder: [Be careful not to be forced off the trending search. You have to hold on until the evening. Around four or five o'clock, you can increase the popularity. ]
Private Detective: [Don't worry about this. I promise to do it for you. Today, I will make this matter known to all the wealthy families in Beijing, especially the merchants.]
The smile in Meng Sheng's eyes deepened. This detective was indeed a wonderful person.
Of course merchants need to know this.
She replied with the word "hard work" and hung up the phone.
Pei Sui glanced at her a few times, but when he saw the curve at the corners of her lips, he calmly withdrew his gaze.
After dinner, Meng Sheng came out of the cafeteria. It was still early for the 2 o'clock class, so he did not go with the leaders. Instead, he called Qiao Na to explain a few things.
Pei Sui also said hello to the others and left, then walked straight towards her.
He asked in a low voice, "Shang Boyu and Ning Weiwei are on the hot search list. Did you arrange this?"
Meng Sheng had nothing to hide from him. If there hadn't been so many people at the dinner table, she would have told him.
Meng Sheng nodded. "Ning Weiwei came back two days ago. I was also waiting for her to come back. Now the timing is just right. I don't want to delay any longer."
This trending search had not yet become popular, but when he received a call from Nie Han, he went to take a look.
In just a moment, he understood Meng Sheng's intention.
She wanted to take the initiative and control over the divorce.
The corners of his lips curled up unconsciously, "I'm ready here, anytime."
Preparation, naturally, refers to the preparation for divorce proceedings.
Meng Sheng looked into his deep almond-shaped eyes and smiled slowly, "Thank you."
She taught the afternoon class smoothly and was well prepared. She was pretty and gentle, and spoke slowly and steadily.
During the question-and-answer session, the students below were all eager to answer, and she patiently answered them one by one.
Just after four o'clock and the class was over, she received a call from her aunt Lou Shumin, asking her to go back to Xu's house for dinner, but she declined.
After all, there was a play waiting for her to perform at home.
After hanging up the phone, Meng Sheng said goodbye to the school leaders. As soon as she got in the car, Qiao Na showed her the trending searches.
The popularity is still not high, but there are more than 2,000 comments.
Meng Sheng was very calm and returned the phone to Qiao Na, "Let's go back to the south of the city."
Seeing this, Qiao Na didn't say anything more.

When we returned to the Moon Villa Community, it was already half past six.
This has been getting more and more intense online.
Meng Sheng asked Aunt Zhang to prepare something to eat first, and then she went upstairs to remove her makeup, took a shower, and changed her clothes. When she came out, she heard a familiar engine sound outside the yard.
It’s Shang Boyu who’s back.
She suppressed the calm emotion in her eyes, held her phone, and sat there quietly without any movement.
But from behind, she looked very lonely and miserable.
Even though all the lights in the house were on, it seemed that they could not illuminate her secluded corner.
This was the scene Shang Boyu saw when he came up in a panic.
His heart suddenly skipped a beat, and a feeling that he couldn't even explain was slowly fading away.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch it again.
He saw the report at around 3:00 p.m. and was so furious that he asked Special Assistant Liang to remove it. Unfortunately, it was back up within ten minutes of its removal, and its popularity even continued to rise.
He felt mixed emotions and thought that this might have been done by Ning Weiwei.
But it seems unlikely.
Later, I also thought of Pei Huan and the first lady Guan Rong.
The former was because of the Pei family's secret, and the latter was because Shang Yizheng seemed to want to retire from the company.
As a son of a merchant family, he is definitely a threat to the first lady.
Now seeing Meng Sheng’s back, it seems that all the doubts are no longer important.
He took a deep breath, walked over, and called softly, "Shengsheng..."
Hearing this, Meng Sheng slowly raised his head to look at him. His face was pale and his beautiful eyes were empty and absent-minded.
It was as if she was back to the time when she was hospitalized for miscarriage.
Shang Boyu's throat tightened when he saw this, knowing that she must have seen the trending search.
"Shengsheng, listen to my explanation. It's not what you think."
He squatted down, held her hand, and explained hurriedly, "There's nothing between Ning Weiwei and me. I went to see him because I was angry that she pushed you, so..."
Meng Sheng pulled his hand away, his voice was very soft, without any emotion, and it seemed that even the tears could not flow out.
"Shang Boyu, I'm really tired, let's get a divorce."
