novelDo You Finally Have a Goal?
| ← Ch.0697 | Ch.0699 → |
Ren Yufei thought about her background and could not help feeling inferior. Thinking about how difficult it was to walk the path of the wealthy, she gave herself a sober reminder.
Even if she really liked the president, that was all she could do. She could not harbor the thought of marrying him. It was not a dream she could afford.
Therefore, not long after she sat down, Ren Yufei said uncomfortably, "President, it's already very late. I've seen the night view. I'll go home first. I still have to wake up early tomorrow."
"Are you in such a hurry? I thought you'd be happy."
Ren Yufei held back her excitement and smiled."I am indeed very happy. Thank you for your hospitality, President."
After saying that, Ren Yufei stood up and bowed slightly to Sheng Bowen. Then, she quickly left the top floor as if she was escaping. Only when she was by his side as a secretary could she get close to Sheng Bowen. Otherwise, she wouldn't be worthy of the president.
Sheng Bowen felt a little helpless and a little disappointed. This was the first time he wanted to invite a girl to experience the night view, but he did not expect... Well, maybe what Mu Qiqi said was true. That he was destined to be lonely in this life.
Therefore, Sheng Bowen finished his candlelit dinner alone on the top floor.
After that, he called Ren Yufei."Secretary Ren..."
"CEO, I'm already home."
"I'm not asking you to come out for dinner. I just want you to remember to communicate with the public relations department tomorrow and announce the news of my divorce with Hu Ran, " Sheng Bowen said.
Secretary Ren realized that she was overly nervous and quickly reminded herself to be calm."Okay, I understand."
"That's it then." After saying that, Sheng Bowen ended the call.
Secretary Ren sat on her bed as if she was an unpardonable sinner. A good person like Sheng Bowen... She had to be ruthless enough to reject him.
..
After watching the night view alone, Sheng Bowen left from the top floor of the hotel. However, on his way back to the Sheng residence, he spotted Hu Ran's car parked at the entrance.
He got out of the car and knocked on her car window."Why didn't you go in?"
"It's inconvenient since we have different identities now." Hu Ran smiled and said, "I came to look for you for no other reason than to ask you to postpone the announcement of our divorce. Father has a very important project right now. The other party only agreed to sign the contract after he found out about my relationship with the Sheng family. If the news of our breakup gets out, the project might be ruined."
"Hu Ran..."
"I know. It's a big inconvenience for you." She felt a little guilty."But, please give me one more month, okay? For the sake of our past friendship."
"Hu Ran, I've helped you once, and you've helped me too. I've always felt that after the divorce, we should be even. If it were any other day, I might have agreed to it directly. What's one more month? But now, I don't want to do anything."
"When will you sign the contract?" Sheng Bowen wanted to confirm with Hu Ran."I can only wait until the day you sign it."
"But if we get a divorce right after signing the contract, the other party will think that we lied to them." Hu Ran was a little anxious, "You won't agree to a month? Or do you already have someone you like, so you have to take care ofher? It doesn't matter. Tell me who it is and I'll help you explain. After all, I also want to see you happy."
"How about this? I'll ask Xiao Qi. As you know, I'm a weak person. I can't make a decision on this kind of thing." Sheng Bowen took out his phone and called Mu Qiqi.
This made Hu Ran's expression changed. She had never expected Sheng Bowen to go to her ex-sister-in-law for this kind of thing.
Was he unable to make a decision on his own?
Even so, it was too late. She could only wait for Mu Qiqi to answer the phone.
Then, Mu Qiqi's voice came from the phone.
"Xiao Qi, are you asleep? I need some of your time."
"What's wrong?" Mu Qiqi was lying on Sheng Xiao's body while reading a book.
"It's like this..." Sheng Bowen told Mu Qiqi about Hu Ran's intentions."I can't make up my mind now. Can you give me some advice?"
On the other end of the phone, Mu Qiqi looked at her phone in confusion. She was sure that it was Sheng Bowen. Has this person taken the wrong medicine? She thought. But why would he call her over such a matter? There must be something going on.
"You want me to tell the truth?"
"Of course I want you to tell the truth."
"Since it's in the past, then quickly cut off the past and look forward to the future. Although I also really hope that Miss Hu will live well, she didn't inform you in advance about this kind of thing. She took advantage of your relationship that no longer exists. So, I think there's no need for you to get involved in this muddy water. After all, Miss Hu doesn't want to be tied together, does she?"
Sheng Bowen listened and nodded."You're right."
In fact, Sheng Bowen deliberately turned up the volume of the call so that Hu Ran could hear it.
Hu Ran's face turned red."I understand what you mean."
"Xiao Ran, I hope you'll always be the same Xiao Ran who always has the same heart." With that, Sheng Bowen hung up the phone, returned to his car, and drove straight into the Sheng family's front door.
As for Hu Ran? She closed the car window, fuming with a face full of shame and anger.
Was Sheng Bowen really stupid, or was he pretending to be crazy?
She was a little confused.
..
After entering the door, Old Master Sheng pulled Sheng Bowen aside."I just heard from the housekeeper that you were chatting with Miss Hu outside again. Why? Are you still attached to her?"
"Grandpa, is your grandson that kind of person? It's true that I don't care about anything, I'm not smart, and my EQ is low. However, I'm not too bad. If someone dumps me, I'll pretend that nothing happened. I still have my dignity. Besides, don't you like Secretary Ren?"
After hearing this, Old Master Sheng immediately understood."After all this time, do you finally have a goal?"
"Do you object?"
"Why should you look for a rich young lady? Do you want me to kick you out without turning around? It's better to find someone steady. I'm satisfied with someone who treats you sincerely. I'm warning you, don't give me the same divorce and remarriage routine, " Old Master Sheng warned Sheng Bowen with his walking stick.
"It's impossible for me. Although I don't have any other advantages, my will is very firm, " Sheng Bowen promised."I've asked Secretary Ren to announce the divorce tomorrow."
"That's not bad..." The old man was satisfied with the answer.
Sheng Bowen smiled. His grandfather in the present was totally different from his grandfather in the past.
When he returned to his room, Sheng Bowen called Mu Qiqi again."Did I scare you just now?"
