Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Gu Shiting’s Ingratiation
Qingming Festival combined with the weekend, the school has three days off.
The previous night, Sheng Tang’s dad received a call from Mr. Sheng’s secretary.
Secretary Cai, on the other end of the line, was still as tactful, his attitude as refreshing as spring breeze: "The chairman wants to invite you to bring the two kids over to see him, and have a casual meal together."
Sheng Sidong: "Bringing the children to see him during Qingming Festival? Is that auspicious?"
Secretary Cai: "..."
Mr. Sheng is someone who doesn’t care much for traditional taboos, and usually not very particular about customs.
He calculated that it’s been several months since the New Year, and last time he took Sheng Zong to Hong Kong, the grandfather-grandson relationship had a major breakthrough. If they didn’t meet for another few months, they’d grow distant again.
He was thinking of ways to get Sheng Sidong’s whole family to come and stay for a night, and the holiday came in handy.
He only had his eyes on the holiday, no matter what nature the holiday actually was.
"... This, we don’t have to be too particular." Secretary Cai awkwardly coughed, "The day after tomorrow is Qingming Festival, how about you and your wife bring the kids over tomorrow?"
Thankfully, he was smart and quick to come up with a solution.
Although it’s Qingming Festival holiday, but those three days aren’t entirely Qingming Festival.
Sheng Sidong: "..."
He really didn’t want to go, felt like he was cursing Mr. Sheng to die.
However, he still agreed.
He talked about the matter at the dinner table.
Sheng Tang, disinterested: "I won’t go, dad you all go."
She’s been preoccupied these past few days.
If it were something major, Sheng Tang would remain calm, but her mood had been off these few days, the whole family noticed, but they didn’t know what was wrong with her.
Grandma guessed: "Maybe she had an argument with Ting."
Her parents thought the same.
Her younger brother disagreed, hurriedly said: "Sis, let’s go together? If you don’t want to go, I won’t go either."
Grandma said to Sheng Tang: "Go out and have some fun, just to relax, I heard grandpa can fish there. Staying at home during the holiday, isn’t it boring?"
Sheng Tang saw everyone looking at her.
She is someone who doesn’t like to spread her worries to others.
The next morning, the Sheng family found that she had returned to normal, chatting with her younger brother at the breakfast table about fishing, looking quite forward to it.
When they arrived at Mr. Sheng’s villa, the door was opened by Gu Shiting, not Sister-in-law Qian.
Sheng Tang: "..."
Gu Shiting seemed very guilty, smiling brightly, he said to Sheng Tang and the rest of the Sheng family: "I called grandpa, wanted to come and fish with him, didn’t expect you all to come."
This was a lie.
Song Chen had contacted Secretary Cai, then he asked Song Chen for Secretary Cai’s number.
A few days ago, he thought that Sheng Tang and her family would definitely visit Mr. Sheng during the holiday, and asked Secretary Cai to notify him if they did.
Secretary Cai told Mr. Sheng.
Mr. Sheng, being a shrewd businessman, without standing on ceremony like Sheng Tang’s parents, thoughtfully entertained Gu Shiting.
Mr. Sheng personally called Gu Shiting: "There’s a small fishing pond nearby, you want to come and fish? Tangtang will be here too."
Gu Shiting was eager, so he came early in the morning.
He had sent messages to Sheng Tang these days, but she didn’t respond; called her, but she didn’t answer; met her at school, and she avoided him.
Finally, annoyed by his pestering, she replied: "Don’t bother me these days, take a few days to cool down and think about what I said."
Gu Shiting couldn’t disturb her anymore.
At this moment, seeing him trying to be so accommodating, Sheng Tang couldn’t bear it.
"When did you arrive?" She initiated the conversation, which marked their reconciliation.
