Chapter 305 The Sponsored Children
"Nothing much, it's just that my sister rarely comes back, and I wanted to get closer to her," Shen Ruoyu said with a smile.
She walked over quietly and sat down next to Wang Manjuan.
Wang Manjuan frowned slightly: "Our Wantang has her own opinions, and it's not something I can decide."
"It's alright, Aunt Wang, as long as my sister doesn't dislike me." Shen Ruoyu shook her head slightly.
She then sat on the sofa for a while longer.
The longer she sat, the more uneasy she felt.
At this time of day, Wang Manjuan would usually chat with her and would also ask the kitchen to prepare snacks and fruits for her.
Usually at times like this, she would secretly take photos and post them on her WeChat Moments with the caption: "Let's have a simple afternoon tea!"
Because the fruits Wang Manjuan and her friends ate were all imported, and the pastries were all made by famous pastry chefs.
So, these things made her show off a lot on her WeChat Moments!
She enjoys being complimented!
Right now, she really wants to eat, but she doesn't quite know how to bring it up.
She asked casually, "Aunt Wang, the grapes I ate yesterday afternoon were delicious! Are there any left today?"
"If you don't have any at home, tell me where you bought them, and I'll go out and buy some!"
She didn't believe what she was saying, and Wang Manjuan even told the maid to wash some fruit.
"Ah, grapes. There are still some left from yesterday," Wang Manjuan said after thinking for a moment. She decided to let her eat the leftovers from yesterday; it wouldn't make a difference.
It was just flown in fresh today, and we're waiting for the kids to come home tonight so we can eat together.
"Wash the grapes left over from yesterday and bring them over," Wang Manjuan said to the maid beside her.
The maid nodded: "Yes, madam, I'll be right there."
"Thank you, Aunt Wang," Shen Ruoyu said happily, mainly because the grapes were really delicious!
And she was able to post on WeChat Moments again!
This is so wonderful!
The grapes were served shortly afterward. Shen Ruoyu took out her phone, pretended to play with it, then turned it off and secretly took a picture.
This time there were only grapes, no pastries.
Although she was very dissatisfied, she couldn't say anything!
I'm so angry!
So she captioned the post: I'm tired of all the pastries, do you have any good recommendations?
The comments on her WeChat Moments were all unanimously saying she couldn't afford it, and some even called her a rich girl.
Shen Ruoyu smiled with satisfaction upon seeing these words.
She quickly finished the grapes and looked up at the clock on the wall. They usually ate at 5:30, but today it was almost 6:00 and the kitchen still hadn't brought out the food.
Oh, I forgot, their biological daughter is back.
She asked cautiously, "Aunt Wang, should we wait for my sister to come back so we can eat together?"
“Yeah, you want to eat before Tangtang?” Wang Manjuan frowned as she looked at her.
Shen Ruoyu has been living at home for almost half a year now. Before, her life was just going back and forth between home, work, and shopping, with no changes.
So she didn't pay much attention to Shen Ruoyu, but after seeing her today, she felt that every word she said was problematic!
No wonder Tangtang didn't like it; she doesn't like it anymore either.
"No, Aunt Wang, I didn't mean that. We usually start eating around this time, and I was just worried you might be hungry, so I asked," Shen Ruoyu said, sounding a little aggrieved.
Wang Manjuan smiled. She noticed something: since her daughter came back, she had become quicker to react.
"You were afraid I'd be hungry, but you didn't leave me a single grape." Wang Manjuan pursed her lips slightly, a hint of mockery in her expression.
Shen Ruoyu's face turned red in an instant: "Aunt Wang, I, I..." She didn't know what to say!
Damn it, it's all Shen Wantang's fault!
If Shen Wantang hadn't suddenly returned, she would still be living a life that wasn't Miss Shen's, but enjoying everything Miss Shen had to offer.
Now, damn it, we can't even eat a few grapes?
“Alright, we should eat at 6:30. If you’re hungry, just wait a bit,” Wang Manjuan said directly, ignoring her attempts to argue.
"By the way, after dinner, I have something I want to say to everyone in front of you. Don't leave after dinner."
Shen Ruoyu's eyes lit up, and then she nodded: "Okay, Aunt Wang."
She went back to her room to study and didn't hear Shen Wantang and Wang Manjuan's conversation.
But she was very confident that Wang Manjuan would definitely side with her!
Could the announcement be that Shen Wantang will treat her like a younger sister? If so, wouldn't she be practically half a young lady of the Shen family?!
That's for sure!
"I still have some time, so I'll go back to my room and read some books first," Shen Ruoyu said, standing up. All she needed to do was play the role of a diligent and hardworking student in front of Wang Manjuan.
Wang Manjuan didn't want to talk to her anymore, so she nodded.
Shen Wantang had already arrived at the company, where two security guards were standing guard at the entrance.
Shen Wantang stepped forward and spotted Yang San.
Another security guard recognized Shen Wantang: "Young Master Shen! Please come in!"
Shen Wantang nodded and walked up to Yang San: "Third Brother, it's been a long time."
"It's been so long, didn't we just meet a few days ago?" Yang San said with a smile.
"Haha, let's have dinner together tomorrow night!" Shen Wantang smiled and then went straight into the company and upstairs.
"Holy crap, Yang, are you and our company's CEO, Xiao Shen, on good terms?" Another security guard was completely stunned when he saw their interaction!
Yang San smiled somewhat embarrassedly: "Yes, we've known each other for a long time."
"My God, Brother Yang, I'm so envious of you!" Another security guard said, his voice brimming with envy.
"It's alright. Our CEO Shen is actually a really good person, and she's very approachable and easy to get along with." Yang San spoke from the heart; in his mind, Shen Wantang was a 100% good person.
He's the kind of person who, even if she committed murder, would still believe 100% that she's innocent.
"The process of how I met Mr. Shen was rather bumpy, but Mr. Shen didn't hold a grudge and was very good to me and my family. Later, we became very good friends," Yang San said after thinking for a moment.
"When we became friends, Mr. Shen wasn't even in the company yet! It was a few years ago."
Another security guard said, "Okay, stop talking. I'm really envious, Brother Yang! Why don't you talk to me about it after get off work? I'm a little curious." He raised his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth turned up, and his expression was a bit smug.
Yang San said somewhat helplessly, "Sure, I'll chat with you when I'm free after get off work, so you can know how great our CEO, Mr. Shen, is."
After saying that, the two of them began to take their shifts seriously.
Shen Wantang went upstairs and went straight into the president's office. Shen Tingxiao was momentarily stunned when he saw her walk in: "When did you get back?"
