Chapter 10 Games Between Adults
Looking at that face, Wen Shuyi thought of a word—trash.
That's right.
She and Sheng Li are a perfect match.
"Call the police? Go to jail?" Wen Shuyi laughed. She wouldn't give him what he wanted. "You're overthinking it. He and I were both unmarried, it was consensual, and our relationship was just a game between adults. Morality and law can't restrain us. But you, Sheng Li... morality can't restrain you. I just wonder what Chen Ming would think if he knew you were going to inherit his wife and daughter?"
"you……"
"You'd better think about how to cover up your ugliness properly."
Wen Shuyi gave a provocative smile, turned around and left.
Shen Xinwan walked over, looking at Sheng Li with resentment and questioning, "Do you still have feelings for Wen Shuyi? Are you trying to have your cake and eat it too? Sheng Li, have you forgotten all the vows you made to me before?"
Sheng Li used to have endless patience for Shen Xinwan.
Today, he suddenly seemed a little annoyed. "No."
"See, you're just annoyed with me." Shen Xinwan felt a pang of sadness and began to sob.
He got even more annoyed. "Didn't you want to work at Tianjing? I'll try to pull some strings for you and get you a backdoor job. I'm leaving now."
"Sheng Li..." Shen Xinwan didn't want to lose both her wife and her money.
Now, all she can do is cling to Sheng Li, saying, "...You'd better not betray our relationship."
The area outside the door became quiet.
The man inside the door coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.
"Tingwang... don't scare me! Someone, come here..."
Sheng Tingwang was sent back to his southern residence to rest.
Xu Chuyin called Gu Lin and asked him to come over and treat Sheng Tingwang.
Uncle Tang brewed some calming soup and brought it over.
"Uncle Tang, give it to me." Xu Chuyin reached out and took it.
Looking at the weak Sheng Tingwang, Uncle Tang's eyes reddened with heartache. "Third Master, are you alright? Your body couldn't take it, why didn't you tell the Old Master? What if something happened to you if you kept pushing yourself like this?"
"I'm fine."
Sheng Ting mistakenly believed that he could hold on.
But he forgot that he was no longer the same person he used to be.
Xu Chuyin blew on the soup and handed it to Sheng Tingwang with a spoon. "You're always so stubborn. Here, have a sip of soup first."
"I can do it myself."
Sheng Ting reached out to take it, but Xu Chuyin stopped him, saying, "What? There's no one else here, are you trying to hide away?"
"I can move my hands." Sheng Tingwang forced a smile and said to Uncle Tang, "Uncle Tang, please help me pack my things. I'm moving out of the Sheng family home in a few days."
"Why, Third Master? Why are you moving out of the Sheng family?" Uncle Tang asked, his voice tinged with heartache and resentment. "Every single member of the Sheng family, from top to bottom, is part of your empire. To put it bluntly, even if someone has to leave, it should be a member of the Sheng family, not you!"
"Back then, it was your father who saved Old Master Sheng and lost his life for him. The Sheng family felt indebted to you for adopting you, but little did they know that your father was the real benefactor of the Sheng family. Their treatment of you is truly outrageous."
"The old man raised me to adulthood, that's a debt of gratitude. I don't feel I've lost out by giving all these honors to him and the Sheng family." Sheng Ting was grateful and didn't regret it, nor did he feel any resentment or grievance. "Besides, it's time for me to leave."
"You really shouldn't have taken all the blame for your affair with Miss Wen," Uncle Tang couldn't shake the feeling. "She was the one who initiated it..."
"Alright, Uncle Tang, let's not talk about this anymore." Sheng Tingwang's face darkened.
Tang Bo had no choice but to remain silent.
He only said half the story.
Xu Chuyin only heard the gist of it, but since she had specifically inquired about what had happened that day before coming over, she had a general understanding of the situation.
"Tingwang, what about you and Wen Shuyi...?"
Sheng Tingwang did not answer.
There was a hint of displeasure in his eyes at being questioned.
Xu Chuyin was unhappy.
But at that point, they didn't press the matter further.
Turning to Uncle Tang, he said, "Uncle Tang, could you please help Tingwang pack his things first? I'll come and help you in a bit."
"understood."
……
Regardless of the circumstances, Sheng Tingwang was injured on behalf of Wen Shuyi.
She felt she should go and visit him.
On the way to the South Residence, Wen Shu also encountered Gu Lin, who was carrying a medicine box and walking hurriedly.
"Dr. Gu." Wen Shuyi quickened her pace and came to him. "Are you... here to see Third Master?"
"Yes, Hatsune called me in a panic, saying that Tingwang was injured. I was very worried, so I rushed over as soon as I finished surgery." Gu Lin pushed up his glasses, unaware of what had happened. "He hasn't been injured in years, what happened today?"
Wen Shu also didn't know how to explain it to Dr. Gu.
He remained silent and sullen.
Gu Lin seemed to understand something, so he didn't ask any further. "Are you going to see him too?"
"Um."
"Let's go together then."
Gu Lin and Wen Shuyi entered the South Residence one after the other.
Standing at the door, Wen Shu hesitated for a moment.
With Sheng Tingwang's white moonlight still around, she didn't know whether she should appear at this moment.
If asked about her relationship with Sheng Tingwang, she would feel very embarrassed.
"Dr. Gu, why don't you take this to Third Master? I won't bother him anymore."
Wen Shuyi handed over a small gift of cookies that she had carefully prepared.
Time was too tight, and she really had no other choice but to prepare something else.
The gift wasn't large, but it was exquisite. Gu Lin didn't immediately reach out to take it. "Since we're already here, let's go inside and take a look together."
"No, thank you."
Gu Lin had no choice but to accept Wen Shuyi's small gift. "Alright then, I'll talk to Tingwang about it."
"Okay, thank you."
Watching the girl's lonely figure turn away.
Gu Lin felt a pang of sadness that he didn't know where it came from.
Take a deep breath.
He carried his medicine box and quickly headed towards Sheng Tingwang's room.
Gu Lin was very professional and provided diagnosis and treatment.
Sheng Tingwang suffered the most severe physical injuries, which, due to their severity, also damaged his internal organs, which were not yet fully healed.
"Would Old Master Sheng really be so ruthless? That shouldn't be the case." Gu Lin finished administering an IV to Sheng Tingwang. "I remember the year you came back from abroad, he cried his eyes out. What did you do to hurt him like this?"
"It was Sheng Li who did it." Tang Bo gritted his teeth in hatred. "That bastard, he finally got a chance, and he had to make sure he was killed."
"Shengli?"
Logically speaking, this kid wouldn't dare to be disrespectful to Sheng Ting.
Even his father had to be mindful of Sheng Tingwang's feelings within the Sheng family.
"You've got some nerve."
After packing his medicine kit, Gu Lin handed over the small gift Wen Shuyi had given him. "Here, this is from Wen Shuyi. This isn't related to her, is it?"
Sheng Ting reached out to take it.
But Xu Chuyin reached out and intercepted it, saying, "What nonsense!"
She reached out to throw it into the trash can.
Sheng Tingwang spoke up, "Give it to me."
"It's just some cookies, and you don't like sweets anyway." Xu Chuyin said reluctantly, but still handed the things back to Sheng Tingwang. "Why are you so concerned about what she gave me?"
"It's ultimately someone else's good intention. If Tingwang accepts it, I can also explain to Wen Shuyi. Tingwang is giving me face."
Gu Lin stepped in to smooth things over.
Xu Chuyin didn't hold it against her.
But there was a hint of warning in his words, "Tingwang, I know you have a good heart and want to protect a woman's reputation by taking the blame. But there are some women who are very scheming. Who knows what they might be planning? Don't be too kind."
