Chapter 177 First Trial Hearing
Professor Zhong hummed in agreement and reminded him, "I saw your medical report last time, you looked good. Remember to have a check-up every year."
Sheng Tingchen replied, "I know."
noon.
They had lunch at the Zhong family's house.
After lunch.
He didn't stay long and took his leave.
Meimei wants to go to the Ocean Park to see dolphins.
Sheng Tingchen drove to Ocean Park again.
Ocean Park is very large, and Mei Mei was carried by Sheng Tingchen most of the time because Mei Mei wanted her mother to carry her.
Sheng Tingchen said, "Aunt Evelynn can't hold Meimei for too long, so Daddy will hold her."
Rong Shu heard the obvious sarcasm in his voice when he said the name Evelynn.
Meimei said "Oh," and then said, "Then I want to hold Mommy's hand, Mommy, hold my hand."
Meimei stretched out her little hand, and Rong Shu had no choice but to take it.
She kept calling out "Mommy" all the way, her happy and excited expression making it seem like she wanted everyone to know she had a mother.
Sheng Tingchen took photos of the two of them with his camera.
The family's good looks attracted a lot of attention as they walked, with Sheng Tingchen carrying a beautiful backpack and his belongings.
To outsiders, they looked like a happy family.
night.
The three of them ate dinner outside.
on the way back.
Meimei fell asleep in Rong Shu's arms.
Rong Shu said calmly, "Take me to the Grand Hyatt Hotel."
Sheng Tingchen glanced at her sideways.
After Mei Mei fell asleep.
All the gentleness on the woman's face vanished.
A deathly silence remained between them.
Sheng Tingchen withdrew his gaze, asked no further questions, and turned to send Rong Shu to the hotel.
Rong Shu didn't bring Mei Mei with her. She carefully placed her on the car seat and looked at Mei Mei's sleeping face with reluctance in her eyes. She had gradually developed a habit of sleeping with Mei Mei every day.
She touched her daughter's cheek, then closed the car door and went into the hotel.
Sheng Tingchen watched the woman's departing figure, then looked away and drove off.
Rong Shu booked a room at the front desk.
I took the room key and went to the room.
Push the door open and go inside.
Rong Shu received a call from Attorney Guo, "The court hearing is tomorrow morning at ten o'clock. Will Ms. Rong be present?"
Sheng Tingchen will definitely not appear in court.
Rong Shu thought for a moment and said, "I'll try my best to get back tomorrow morning."
"it is good."
Rong Shu asked again, "Attorney Guo, if I want to fight for custody of the child, what are the chances of winning?"
If she can get custody of Meimei, she is willing to never remarry for the rest of her life and just watch Meimei grow up.
Attorney Guo said, "Ms. Rong, you have been separated from your child for five years, and the child has been raised by the father during this time. Your chances of winning a custody battle are very slim."
Although it was expected, hearing such words still made me inexplicably sad.
"I see."
I hung up the phone.
Rong Shu slumped weakly against the sofa.
She thought about it for a long time that night.
She was willing to spend the rest of her life making up for what she owed Meimei, and she had to completely sever ties with Sheng Tingchen.
Rong Shu booked a flight to Beijing for 6:30 the next morning.
Afterwards, I had a phone call with Jiang Huaixu.
Jiang Huaixu answered quickly, "Xiao Shu."
Rong Shu said, "Professor, I'm going back to Beijing tomorrow morning."
She will definitely have to tell Jiang Huaixu when she gets back.
Jiang Huaixu hummed in agreement. "You really don't need to worry about this anymore. Just go back and do your own work."
He asked again, "Are you with Meimei?"
Rong Shu said, "I'll go back alone first. The court hearing is at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, and I want to go to the scene to see how things are going."
Jiang Huaixu said, "Okay, be careful. Send me a message when you get to Beijing."
"it is good."
Five o'clock the next morning.
Rong Shu then headed to the airport.
After checking in and boarding the plane, I leaned back in my business class seat and closed my eyes to rest.
She felt someone sit down next to her.
He did not open his eyes.
It wasn't until the flight attendant came to serve breakfast that I finally arrived.
When Rong Shu opened her eyes, she saw that the person sitting next to her was actually Su Qingzhi.
Seeing that she was staring at her in surprise, Su Qingzhi greeted her politely with a smile, "Miss Evelynn."
soon.
Rong Shu composed herself, took the breakfast from the flight attendant, and ate it quietly, showing no intention of speaking to Su Qingzhi.
Su Qingzhi did not take the initiative to disturb her.
A two-hour flight.
Su Qingzhi was busy with work.
Rong Shu rested quietly.
At 8:40 a.m., the plane arrived at Beijing International Airport on time.
Su Qingzhi picked up her laptop and stood up, and Rong Shu followed suit.
suddenly.
The flight ticket accidentally fell out of her bag. Rong Shu bent down to pick it up, and Su Qing subconsciously glanced back and noticed the character "Shu" on her ticket.
Rong Shu stood up, noticing Su Qingzhi staring at her, and asked, "Mr. Su, is there something you need?"
Su Qingzhi gave a slight smile and said, "It's nothing."
After getting off the plane.
Su Qingzhi and her secretary quickly walked ahead and left.
Rong Shu immediately exited airplane mode. She had sent a message to Meimei beforehand, and Meimei had already called four or five times, as well as Sheng Tingchen.
Rong Shu called Mei Mei back as she walked.
Meimei answered quickly, her voice choked with emotion, "Mom."
Hearing Meimei's voice, Rong Shu felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife. "Meimei, Aunt Evelynn has something urgent to attend to. Meimei, stay with Daddy first. Aunt Evelynn will wait for you in Beijing, okay?"
Although Meimei was very sad that her mother didn't take her with her when she went back, she knew that her mother had work to do, so Meimei didn't cry or make a fuss.
"Then Dad and I will go back to find Mom right away."
Rong Shu hummed in agreement.
I exited the terminal.
Rong Shu took a taxi directly to the court.
Arrived at the courthouse gate.
It's exactly ten o'clock.
Attorney Guo was waiting for her at the door.
Because the trial is not open to the public, it takes place in a small, private courtroom.
No one outside knew that the divorce case of Sheng Tingchen, the richest man in Beijing with a net worth of hundreds of billions, was taking place here.
The court hearing began.
Both parties submitted relevant materials as evidence.
The trial lasted for more than two hours.
Sheng Tingchen's legal team is very capable, with their argumentative skills being roughly on par with Guo's. The opposing lawyer clearly stated that the client was unwilling to divorce her and even said that they were willing to make amends.
The most important point now is that Sheng Tingchen has economic ties with her in her overseas company, and has even increased his investment in her company's projects. This shows that Sheng Tingchen is not entirely without feelings for her.
Hearing these words.
Rong Shu's expression grew increasingly grim.
After the court hearing.
The verdict will be announced at a later date.
After leaving the courthouse.
Rong Shu spotted a familiar Rolls-Royce.
I saw her.
The car door opened.
Sheng Tingchen got out of the car and walked towards Rong Shu. He seemed not to notice the woman's gloomy expression and walked straight up to her, saying, "Get in the car first."
Looking at them like this, they don't look like a couple going through a divorce.
