The Sheng family searched frantically, but still couldn't find Sheng Ting anywhere.
They grumbled and cursed for two days, and by the time they realized that Sheng Ting might have gone to find Sheng Qian, Sheng Qian had already left the town with Sheng Ting.
Sheng Ting made her final decision only when Sheng Qian had packed her things and was about to leave.
They left together with Sheng Qian.
When Sheng Qian took Sheng Ting out, she dressed up before taking her out.
After resting for two days, Sheng Ting was able to move around freely again.
It still hurts a lot when I do big movements.

Upon arriving in the county town, Sheng Qian first found a place for Sheng Ting to rest.
He turned around and went to the steel factory.
The reason Sheng Qian appeared was that half of Ju Baifeng's steel plant had been converted into a smelting area.
“When Zhang Shunlin left a while ago, I asked him when you would come to the county again. I didn’t expect you to come just a few days later.” Ju Baifeng smiled as he saw Sheng Qian and invited her into the tea room he had set up there.
"Is Grandma Ju alright?"
“I’ll have someone notify my aunt right away. She’s been looking forward to your visit. If she finds out I didn’t notify her, she’ll definitely take it out on me.”
Having said all that, it would be inappropriate for Sheng Qian to speak up and stop it.
She didn't intend to see Old Mrs. Ju when she came, fearing she would trouble her to make the trip.
Grandma Ju's kindness towards Sheng Qian made Sheng Qian feel a little awkward.
I always felt that the old lady was looking at someone else through her.
The two had just finished discussing their collaboration when Grandma Ju arrived.
"Auntie!"
Every time Sheng Qian saw Grandma Ju, Ju Baifeng was always like this, and she got used to it.
Grandma Ju gestured for her to sit down.
Ju Baifeng, who had stood up to greet people, sat down again.
Sheng Qian, who had also gotten up, sat back down.
When Grandma Ju saw Sheng Qian, her eyes widened in surprise for a moment.
He quickly suppressed all his outward emotions.
"Qian, how long are you staying in the county this time? You can't refuse the place the family has arranged for you."
That "Qian Yatou" sounded very affectionate!
Thinking of Sheng Ting's situation, Sheng Qian said, "I'll only stay for three days at most. I've already arranged a place to stay, so I won't bother you any longer."
“That won’t do. Your aunt prepared a place for you to stay long ago. You can move in as soon as you arrive,” Ju Baifeng quickly chimed in.
Sheng Qian said, "I also brought my cousin, so it's really inconvenient. Maybe next time. Next time, even if you, Grandma Ju, don't let me stay, I'll still shamelessly squeeze in."
“It would be even better if you brought your cousin along, so the two of you sisters can live together,” Grandma Ju quickly said.
Because of Sheng Qian, she also welcomes everyone else.
Sheng Qian shook her head, "My cousin isn't used to it, let's wait until next time."
Seeing this, the old lady Ju didn't press the matter further.
"It's fine if you don't stay inside, but at least have dinner with this old woman tonight," Old Mrs. Ju had no choice but to compromise and let Sheng Qian have dinner with her.
Sheng Qian thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with my cousin."

When Sheng Ting heard Sheng Qian say that she was going to have dinner with the steel company boss, she felt uneasy.
"Xiaoqian, I think I'll stay here. You're discussing business, and I won't understand anything if I sit next to you. It might even ruin your plans. I'll just wait for you to come back."
Sheng Qian said, "I've already mentioned you to them, are you really not going?"
Sheng Ting felt like crying: "Why did you bring me up out of the blue?"
There was nothing she could do to help Sheng Qian.
Now it's also dragging Shengqian down.
"The big boss likes a lively atmosphere. If I go alone, people might misunderstand and think I don't have a good relationship with my cousins. He prefers a harmonious family..."
"Then, I'll go with you."
Sheng Ting knew she had to help Sheng Qian.
Sheng Qian sent Sheng Ting there to train her.
Dinner was at the best restaurant in the county town.
After coming out and seeing the buildings and bustling atmosphere of the county town, Sheng Ting was already overwhelmed. When she followed Sheng Qian into such a grand restaurant again, Sheng Ting immediately felt awkward.
Standing behind Sheng Qian, he said somewhat nervously, "Xiao Qian, if I don't perform well later, will it affect your business with the other party?"
“Just be yourself, don’t be nervous,” Sheng Qian said, turning to comfort her. “They like genuine people who aren’t pretentious, so you don’t need to deliberately follow those etiquette rules. Just treat your elders the same way you would any other person.”
Despite saying that, Sheng Ting was still extremely nervous.
The hotel has private rooms, and Ju Baifeng had already instructed the hotel to reserve the best one.
Grandma Ju and Ju Baifeng were already waiting inside.
Guided by the waiter, they pushed open the door to the private room.
Upon seeing the people inside, Sheng Ting's heart, which had just settled back into her stomach, jumped into her throat again, fearing that she might make a mistake.
"Grandma Ju, Boss Ju, this is my cousin Sheng Ting. Cousin, this is Grandma Ju and Boss Ju!"
Sheng Ting quickly greeted them!
Grandma Ju and Ju Baifeng were a little stunned when they saw the injuries on Sheng Ting's face and hands.
They had seen countless people and could tell at a glance that this was Sheng Ting's first time appearing in public.
Knowing the vices in the countryside, they quickly guessed what kind of abuse Sheng Ting had endured.
Grandma Ju and Ju Baifeng's scrutiny made Sheng Ting even more uneasy.
Grandma Ju smiled gently: "No wonder you're cousins, you're both so beautiful! Please sit down, the dishes have already been ordered, you can add anything you'd like to eat now!"
Ju Baifeng handed menus to Sheng Qian and Sheng Ting from the side.
Sheng Ting was flattered!
Judging from Sheng Qian's words, this Mr. Ju is the owner of a steel factory, so he must be very rich.
