Shen Family Mansion.
The aunt brought up the al she had prepared.
Shen Weiyi still didn’t have much of an appetite, but rembering Sheng Ting’s words from noon, she reluctantly ate a little.
After the al, Sheng Ting escorted her back to her room, saying, "Rest well."
"And what about you?"
Sheng Ting, "I’m not leaving. Tonight, I’ll have the aunt tidy up the guest room, and I’ll stay there." Knowing she needed company now, he planned to stay at the Shen Family temporarily. There were many guest rooms in the Shen Family Mansion, so spending a night was no problem.
"What about the laboratory..." Shen Weiyi knew that her situation must have caused a significant delay for him. Under normal circumstances, she would have insisted he leave to attend to his own affairs, but now, she really needed soone to be with her.
She was afraid to be alone.
"Don’t worry, I’ll arrange everything," Sheng Ting reassured her.
Shen Weiyi nodded, wanting to say more, but Sheng Ting pressed a finger to her lips, "Shh, now rest well, don’t think about anything."
"Understood!"
Only then did Shen Weiyi obediently close her mouth.
"Go to sleep!" Sheng Ting watched her lie down in bed and close her eyes before he finally left.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Shen Weiyi slowly opened her eyes.
Despite not having rested for an entire day and night, she felt not the slightest bit sleepy.
A photograph of her and Shen Juanzhi was placed on the bedside table. Shen Weiyi reached for it, stared at it for a long ti, then held it to her chest, saying, "You promised you’d take care of for a lifeti, always protect and look after , and never let anyone bully . So you have to be okay, you can’t break your word."
That night, Shen Weiyi fell asleep holding the photograph, but she did not sleep peacefully, awakening before five in the morning.
Outside, the sky was still a dusky grey.
Just like her mood.
After washing up, Shen Weiyi went downstairs to find Sheng Ting already awake and cooking breakfast. He saw her coming downstairs and said, "Why don’t you sleep a little longer?"
"I can’t sleep!" Ever since Shen Juanzhi’s accident, every mont felt like a dream to her.
Whenever she closed her eyes, she could see him.
"I’m going to go for a walk," Shen Weiyi said.
Sheng Ting took a coat from the entryway and draped it over her, "It’s cold outside, wear more clothes."
"Thanks!" Shen Weiyi took hold of the coat, looked up at him, and said, "If you have things to do, just go. You don’t need to stay here with all the ti."
"It’s okay," Sheng Ting replied, "Are you going to the company today?"
"I won’t," Shen Weiyi shook her head, "I plan to wait for Secretary Jiang to co over, then head to the airport to check."
The missing flight still had no news, as if it had vanished into thin air.
Although Secretary Jiang had ntioned her dad might not have boarded the flight, the ticketing system showed he had checked in.
Sheng Ting knew that no amount of words could comfort her, so it was better to let her go out on her own, "Breakfast will be ready soon, don’t forget to co back and eat," he urged.
"Okay!"
Shen Weiyi opened the door, and a gust of cold wind surged in. Instinctively wrapping herself tighter in her coat.
She looked up, ready to step out, just as she saw Secretary Jiang standing at the door about to enter.
Since Secretary Jiang frequently ca and went from the mansion, she knew the house’s code.
Shen Weiyi looked at Secretary Jiang, and Secretary Jiang also looked at her. The latter, despite her fatigued appearance, greeted with a trace of a smile, "There’s news from Mr. Shen."
"Co in first, then tell ."
Shen Weiyi’s hand on the doorknob instinctively tightened, then she stepped back to let Secretary Jiang into the house.
