Chapter 973: Chapter 973: Is It Devotion?
After Sheng Tang returned, she socialized extensively.
She was busy for a week and finally had some free time.
The excessive socializing left her exhausted, even more so than filming.
As a result, she decided to return home.
Returning to her parent’s house, where she could relax and recharge.
After she came back, her parents made time and prepared lots of delicious food for her.
Home is indeed the most comfortable place.
Sheng Tang ate at home for three days, and her spirits and mood both improved.
At dinner, her parents talked to her about Sheng Zong.
"Ever since he broke up with his last girlfriend, he hasn’t been in a relationship." Mom was quite worried. "Tangtang, has he been hurt emotionally and is unwilling to talk about it?"
After breaking up with Jin Luo, Sheng Zong has been busy with studies and work, he probably hadn’t had time.
Of course, it could also be that he genuinely was hurt.
Jin Luo dated him because she thought he was a rich second generation. Now that he’s working at his grandfather’s company, other girls are even more aware of his status, it’s quite likely that Sheng Zong feels uneasy.
"Do you want to talk to him?" Mom asked Sheng Tang, "You siblings can communicate easier. If we talk to him, he won’t listen."
"I’ll have a meal with him later." Sheng Tang said, then changed the topic, "My house is renovated, do you want to go have a look?"
"Is it done already?" Dad was also quite interested. "Sure, we’ll go take a look."
The next day, Sheng Tang took her parents to tour her new home.
The house was beautifully renovated.
"Not bad," Dad said.
Sheng Tang thought about how her parents had lived in their house for many years. Now that she had money, she asked them, "Do you want to move to a different place?"
Mom shook her head, "We’re used to this place, all the neighbors are old friends."
Her attitude was quite firm.
Sheng Tang then remembered the traces left by her grandmother in that house, her parents likely couldn’t bear to leave.
Her parents both had jobs with decent incomes, Sheng Tang couldn’t offer them much.
While wandering the rooms, her parents said it was pretty nice.
However, since it was just renovated, there was still a bit of smell, so it’s not good to stay too long.
After leaving, Sheng Tang arranged for Sheng Zong to come home for a meal.
Sheng Zong did return indeed.
After dinner, the siblings took a walk around the neighborhood. Sheng Tang told him all about their parents’ concerns.
Sheng Zong was surprised, "They still remember that incident?"
As for Jin Luo, Sheng Zong had already forgotten.
He didn’t hold any obsession over her. He was the one who wanted to break up, and his attitude at the time was quite firm, so it wasn’t very sentimental.
Years had passed, and Sheng Zong only occasionally thought of her, finding her rather pitiful.
"I don’t miss her, nor do I have any shadow over it," Sheng Zong said, "I genuinely haven’t met anyone that moved me. Other than working, I don’t have the opportunity to interact with people outside the company."
"Mom and Dad are quite worried."
"This can’t be rushed either." Sheng Zong said, "Sis, I still want to go to the Beijing branch after the new year, you should help me convince Mom and Dad then."
"You still want to leave?"
"Yes, I still have to go, I can’t stay here." Sheng Zong said, "Last month I made a mistake, our manager covered it up for me, I only found out later.
Like this, I learn nothing. They’re too busy flattering me to help me, it’s as if I’m raised in a greenhouse.
I also mentioned it to Grandpa. Grandpa said to go train at the branch for a few years, develop experience, and then return directly to a mid-level position in the company.
The mid-to-high level colleagues wouldn’t be as polite, which would be more helpful to me."
Sheng Tang nodded.
She would help Sheng Zong.
