In the hospital, Mrs. Huang was sitting on her bed, reading the documents earnestly. Even when she was sick, she didn't forget to work. Even a doctor wouldn't be able to persuade her, so she let her be.
Tired, he raised his head to rub his eyes and took a sip of warm water before his gaze fell on the door. At this moment, he realized how lonely he was. His two daughters were both working at the company, so he didn't even have time to accompany her!
He always hoped that someone would push open the door and see Huang Meuting's figure appear in front of her, making her happy. The child, even with his belly full of sadness, had hidden it well enough not to worry her.
Yet, she had even deprived herself of the freedom to fall in love. Every time she turned around, her face would always make her feel extremely guilty. However, in her heart, she was unwilling to marry her off to a man whose status was lower than Huang Meuting's.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. It was usually a nurse. Mrs. Huang answered without thinking, "Come in."
It was not a nurse but an unfamiliar man. Mrs. Huang was stunned for a moment, then looked at him suspiciously, "Sir, did you go through the wrong door? "I'm in ward 608."
The person politely lowered his head and smiled, "Hello, Madam Huang. I did not walk into the wrong room. My name is Wu Lin, I specifically came to find you. I hope I did not disturb your rest."
"Yes, it's alright. What business does Mr. Wu have with me?" Madam Huang carefully sized him up. She felt that he looked familiar, but couldn't recall where she had seen him before. She asked, "Mr. Wu, did we meet somewhere?"
Wu Lin smiled and nodded his head, "Yes, Madam Huang. Twenty years ago, I was the assistant of the President of the Huang family. Of course, I wasn't called Madam Huang then, hur hur."
"You're Assistant Wu?" Mrs. Huang sized him up in surprise, finally realizing why she thought she looked so familiar. Assistant Wu, after her husband died, she quit and didn't do it anymore. It's just that … Why was he looking for her now?
Wu Lin nodded once again, but he still maintained a polite smile on his face. "I was entrusted by the former CEO to come visit Mrs. Huang. Is Mrs. Huang well?"
Madam Huang was stunned. Her mind was filled with questions. "Who did you say you were entrusted to come visit me?" Did she hear wrong? Assigned by the former CEO? The former CEO was her husband who had died twenty years ago!
However, Wu Lin remained unperturbed and said, "The former CEO, Shi Cheng, called me yesterday to find out about your illness."
"Are you crazy? What nonsense are you spouting here?! " Mrs. Huang was so angry that she sat up straight and scolded Wu Lin loudly while glaring at him. Her heart suddenly felt a little scared because of his words.
Wu Lin quickly comforted her, "Mistress, don't be angry, I'm not crazy. The former CEO is not dead, he's still alive. He didn't dare come directly to see you because he was afraid that your heart was already weak and you couldn't take the stimulation and became sick."
Although he was gradually guiding her, Madam Huang's eyes were still wide with shock. She was so shocked that she could not say anything. After a long while, she opened her mouth and stuttered, "You …" What did he say? Shi Cheng is still alive? "
"Yes." Wu Lin nodded his head and looked at the door, saying, "He is at the door now, waiting to see Mrs. Huang."
Madam Huang slowly turned towards the door. Shi Cheng, who was dressed in black, also appeared at the door at this moment. He gave her a smile before walking in. He lifted his hand to remove the hat from his head and stood in front of Mrs. Huang's bed.
Madam Huang looked at him in shock. It really was him! After twenty years, he hadn't changed at all except for becoming slightly older. She was still as handsome and radiant as she had been when she was bewitched by the man.
"Shi Cheng..." It's really you? " Even now, she still could not believe that the person standing in front of her was her husband, a man who had been married for more than a year!
"Qian Ru, long time no see. Are you alright?" Shi Cheng wasn't as excited as she was. Over the years, Mrs Huang had appeared in many magazines and newspapers, and her movements had always been under his control.
"How could I be? "Just where in the world are you going to die if you leave us orphans and widows behind?" Madame Huang's tears turned into tears, and she threw herself into his embrace.
Shi Cheng lightly patted her shoulder and sucked in a breath of air as he said faintly, "I'm back in Tang City."
Mrs. Huang suddenly retreated from his embrace, staring at him in shock, "What did you say? You went back to your ex-wife? " Her face grew paler and angrier.
Shi Cheng nodded and looked down at her apologetically, "Qianru, I'm sorry. I couldn't let go of the mother and son duo and had to do this. 20 years have passed, can you forgive me?"
"If you can't let them go, can you let us go? Even if Meiyu is not your biological daughter, you still made them call you daddy for over a year! How could you be so ruthless as to leave us behind? " Mrs. Huang shouted angrily.
Shi Nan sighed and said helplessly, "I can't let it go either, so I gave my entire fortune to you and your daughter. I don't want anything else from you, can't you make up for the debt I owe you?"
"But do you know that feelings are the most important thing? The most important thing is to be close friends? " Mrs. Huang was a bit flustered. She didn't expect Shi Cheng to come back to life and even reunite with his ex-wife.
That Huang family... The Huang Family Mansion. Would he have to return all this to the family of three? She was very clear about Shi Cheng's reputation in the business world. It was impossible for her to defeat him.
"Qianru, do you really think you love me?" Shi Cheng looked at her and asked.
Madam Huang's heart skipped a beat. She stared at him and instinctively asked, "What do you mean?"
"You don't care that I have a wife who wants to marry me, that I'm married and I don't want to be your rich wife at home, that I want to take over the company, that I don't even know my relationship with other men," he said. Do you really think I don't know what you're thinking? "
"I …" Madam Huang was speechless. For a moment, she didn't know how to reply to him, so she was so shocked that her face turned even paler.
Seeing that she was speechless, Shi Cheng continued to speak faintly, "Meiyu Meuting is a pair of very cute children. She is the only feeling of warmth I feel in this house, and I don't even care about my life to save Meiyu. You should know that I have a lot of love for this home."
"If that's the case, why did you abandon them and return to Tang City?" Madam Huang took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Shi Cheng left in such a baffling manner. She was really uneasy and scared!
"I got a divorce for you, but I got this kind of life. I regret it, but at the same time, I feel a deep sense of guilt towards my ex-wife. I'm choking with guilt, do you understand? "
"I know you've always loved your ex-wife, but I didn't expect you to be so ruthless as to abandon me and return to her side. Moreover, you've been doing so for twenty years."
Shi Cheng looked at the bitterness on her face and still apologetically said, "I know you're a strong woman and you like to work in the mall, so I left the company to you. I don't even care that you changed the company to Mrs Huang, I didn't ruthlessly ignore you."
"Since you've returned to the Tang City and announced your death, then why did you come out now?" This was what she was most concerned about. She did not want to lose everything she had now!
Shi Cheng hesitated before saying, "I was planning to spend my whole life in Tang City like this. If it wasn't for Shi Nan and Mei Ting, I wouldn't be in front of you."
Mrs. Huang was shocked, and once again looked at him with shocked eyes, stuttering, "Shi Nan …? Why do you care about him? "Could it be …?" She, who was behind him, could not say anything, but she was suddenly startled awake. Shi Nan's surname was Shi as well!
Shi Cheng nodded solemnly, "That's right, Shi Nan is my son. He likes Mei Ting, and she likes him as well, but don't you think it's too cruel to let them both live such a miserable life?"
Looking at Madam Huang, he could only smile wryly in his heart. She was still as snobbish as before, and still liked to climb up the mountain. He could even ignore his own daughter's happiness and push her to the rich family's young masters.
"For Shi Nan … that just appeared in front of me? " Mrs. Huang mumbled in a low voice. Then he suddenly looked up and glared at him. "You want to take the company back to your son, right?"
Shi Cheng shook his head and helplessly patted her shoulder, "Don't be so sensitive. I won't take the company back. I've said that I only have one wish, and that is to stop messing with the two children. Let them be."
"Humph, in the end, you're still here for the company. If Shi Nan marries Mei Ting, the company will one day be taken over by him!" Madam Huang sneered and slapped his hand away.
Shi Cheng looked at his empty palm and felt that she was unreasonable, but he could not help but take a deep breath, "Qian Ru, we are all old. Why would we need to hurt our brains over such useless things?" As long as the children are well, what does it matter how the property is divided? "
"If you don't trust Shi Nan, you can transfer the company to Meiyu. Meiyu is more suitable for me to take over the company than Meiting is, don't you think? As for Mei Ting, I believe that Shi Nan has the ability to let her live a good life. "
"Beautiful jade …" Madam Huang softly murmured this name, a name that she had looked down upon for twenty years. She was indeed very suitable for taking over the company, but she couldn't bear to let Huang Meuting suffer even the slightest bit.
Shi Cheng smiled and said, "The company is still yours. You can share whatever you want. I'm just waiting for when I can drink the wedding wine between Shi Nan and Mei Ting. I also want to hear Mei Ting call me dad again." Stop making things difficult for them. You must also very much hope that these two daughters will find their own happiness as soon as possible, right? "
Madam Huang glared at him and coldly ridiculed him, "You are clearly threatening me. I have no choice but to marry my daughter? My daughter is mine, I want her to marry whoever she marries! "
"Qianru, why are you saying things like that? Sigh, I won't say anymore. You should think about it carefully. I'll be leaving first. " After Shi Cheng finished speaking, he gave one last look at Madam Huang before turning around and walking to the door.
Madam Huang watched his back as he left, her heart still thumping wildly. The 'surprise' today was too great, making it hard for her to believe it was real.
He forcefully pinched the nail into the flesh. It was very painful! Does that mean it's true? Shi Cheng really came back to life? Furthermore, he came with a request. How did he become like this? Since she was alive, why couldn't he become her family?
Shi Nan was the son of him and his ex-wife. How could she possibly marry him peacefully? In her guilty conscience, she knew very well that she could not control the power of the Huang Family. She was worried that one day, her family would be taken back.
But if he didn't help the two of them, wouldn't he be infuriated? He was clearly threatening her to make a mistake between Shi Nan and Huang Meuting. Shi Cheng's threat made her feel even more that his intentions were impure!
