Chapter 42 Comics
Shen Chutang learned about Zhang Yueting's retirement from Xie Tong the next day. There was no news at all. She suddenly logged off Weibo, as if she had disappeared from the face of the earth.
Rumors started to circulate online that Shi Chengyu couldn't bear to let her work in the entertainment industry, so he kept her at home.
If Shen Chutang hadn't lived in the Shi family, she would have believed it.
It turns out that you can’t trust what you read on the Internet. At this point, the matter has finally come to an end and life has returned to normal.
Shen Sujing's birthday is at the end of November, and this year it was held in the form of a charity dinner. Shen's parents rushed back from Suzhou, Shen Sichen brought his girlfriend over, and Shen Yanheng did not come because Zhao Wenxian was not feeling well.
This was the second time Shen Chutang met Zhou Xingyang. She seemed to have changed a lot, but she was still as cold and calm as ever, with no expression on her face most of the time.
She and Xie Tong were sitting on the sofa. Xie Tong saw Shen Sichen holding someone's arm and exclaimed, "It's amazing. Your second brother's cleanliness habit is gone?"
Shen Chutang said: "How can it be the same? She is my second brother's girlfriend."
"Girlfriend?! With that kind of mouth of his, he can still find a girlfriend!" Xie Tong was surprised. She had never seen anyone who was better at talking back at people than Shen Sichen. His mouth sounded like he had drunk poison.
Shen Chutang couldn't help laughing, and Zhou Xingyang happened to look over, and Shen Chutang waved at her.
Zhou Xingyang whispered something into Shen Sichen's ear and then walked towards them.
Shen Sichen followed her, "Tangtang, call me sister-in-law."
Shen Chutang rolled his eyes at him, "Second brother, Sister Xing Yang has a name, and you are not marrying her home like my eldest brother."
"Okay, you guys play." Shen Sichen touched his nose awkwardly, "I'll go over there first."
Shen Chutang took Zhou Xingyang's arm and sat down, "Sister Xingyang, you look really good today."
"This is my good friend, Xie Tong."
Zhou Xingyang smiled and nodded, "Hello."
Xie Tong followed Shen Chutang in calling her Sister Xing Yang. She was a chatterbox and could talk about anything.
Finally, the topic turned to University A. Xie Tong was very curious about university life and asked questions non-stop.
Zhou Xingyang answered them patiently and gradually relaxed.
Shen Chutang took the shawl from Lin Shulang and asked casually, "Assistant Lin also graduated from University A?"
Lin Shulang was stunned, "Yes, young lady, I am a graduate student studying abroad after graduation."
Shen Chutang nodded, "Then you are better than Brother Chengyu."
Lin Shulang smiled and waved his hands, "Miss, you are too kind. I can't compare to Mr. Shi."
On the surface, he graduated from a prestigious foreign university, while Shi Chengyu only graduated from University A. In terms of academic qualifications, he seemed to be better, but that was all.
Shi Chengyu started to learn about business knowledge when he was a teenager, but he did not learn it from books until he went to college. The education they received since childhood about business, politics, and even the military, those things accumulated by powerful families for generations, were things he would never be able to access in his entire life.
Whether they are in business, politics, or entering the entertainment industry like Mr. Shen, it is just a choice for them, nothing more.
Normally at school, Shen Chutang thought that being admitted to A University was a great achievement, and A University was also the dream school for many students.
When Zhou Xingyang heard Lin Shulang talking about studying abroad, his eyes lit up, but he immediately concealed his emotion.
Lin Shulang went to get two more shawls, handed them to the two people, and then returned to Shi Chengyu.
Shen Sichen and Shen Sujing were also there. Looking down from the VIP room on the second floor, they could just see three people sitting on the sofa.
"Chengyu, I heard that you kept someone outside?" Shen Sichen asked suddenly, and Shen Sujing was so scared that he choked out water.
Shen Sujing said: "Who told you that? How could Brother Chengyu do such a thing?!"
"Wei Chuan said that he saw Shu Lang taking a woman to the Marriott apartment last time."
"It seems to be the one named Ting in your circle."
Shen Sujing's eyes looked back and forth between the two faces, one casual, the other indifferent. He would never believe that Shi Chengyu would do such a thing.
But he heard Shi Chengyu hum lightly, "The last incident was too big, I'm afraid someone will disturb Tangtang."
Although the words were simple, both of them understood them. Shen Sichen looked at him with a nonchalant expression, his eyes only on the people downstairs, "This... is a bit unkind."
As if he had seen something interesting, Shi Chengyu's lips slightly raised, "She chose it herself."
"I'm going downstairs to look for Tangtang."
"Second brother, Brother Chengyu, you think too highly of Tangtang." Shen Sujing sighed. If it were him, he might not do such a thing.
Shen Sichen frowned slightly, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.
Shen Sujing didn't know what he saw, and ran out without saying a word. There was no one in the room, and Shen Sichen followed him downstairs.
Shen Chutang and the other two were sitting in a row downstairs, watching Shen Sujing approach a bright and beautiful girl.
Xie Tong excitedly grabbed Shen Chutang's arm, "Tangtang! It's Jiman! It's Jiman! My favorite star, Tangtang, come with me to get an autograph later!"
"Okay, okay, let me go first." Shen Chutang clapped her hands. She didn't usually watch TV dramas, but she could often see the commercials she endorsed on the big screens in shopping malls.
Ji Man wore an off-shoulder dress today and had to take off her coat once she entered the banquet hall. There was heating inside, but she had just come in from outside and was still a little cold.
Shen Sujing walked over and said, "Sister Ji Man, I didn't expect you to come."
Ji Man smiled brightly, "Master Shen invited me, so there's no reason for me not to come. Happy birthday."
Especially at such a banquet, she looked around and saw that besides the Shen family, there were also the Chen family, the Zhao family, and the Shi family. Standing over there was an internationally renowned director, and over there was a top domestic producer. It was indeed an upper-class occasion for the upper class.
Shen Sujing asked: "Xiaoxiao, Sister Jiman, are you cold? Do you want me to ask someone to bring you a shawl?"
Logically speaking, this was against the rules. Just as Ji Man was about to refuse, he caught a glimpse of several girls sitting on the sofa, all wearing shawls.
"Oh, that's my second brother's girlfriend, the one in the middle is my sister, and the one next to her is her best friend."
The most important reason why the Shen family and the Shi family are on good terms is that Shi Chengyu has a good relationship with the youngest daughter of the Shen family. She had heard that before.
"Your sister...is her nickname Tangtang?" Ji Man asked hesitantly, looking at Shen Chutang in a daze.
Shen Sujing was a little surprised, "Have you seen it?"
That shouldn't be the case. They don't seem like the kind of people who would have any contact with each other.
Ji Man smiled faintly, her thoughts were pulled back to a long time ago, that somewhat embarrassing time, "Many years ago, Miss Shen helped me."
"I'll go over and say hello."
