Many things happened tonight.
After finishing the questioning, Sheng Tang didn’t need to stay here anymore, as her injury wasn’t anything serious.
She also stood up to say goodbye.
When the police arrived, Gu Shiyan came out of the room.
At this moment, the couple together tried to keep Sheng Tang from leaving.
"Stay for the night. You’ve had some bad luck today, better not to leave," Gu Shiyan said, "Stay here tonight and go back tomorrow."
Sheng Tang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
She insisted, "No, I really have to go back. You know, I’m not living alone now..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Shiting’s face darkened first.
Gu Shiyan and Song Chen were also at a loss for words.
Sheng Tang went to get her coat.
Her down jacket was torn, with feathers constantly spewing out. Sheng Tang thought that in this situation, she looked like a shedding pheasant, which was kind of funny.
Gu Shiyan couldn’t help but laugh too, and she took the torn coat from Sheng Tang’s hands. "I’ll get you a coat, so you don’t look like a homeless person."
She handed Sheng Tang’s coat to the maid to take care of and went back to her room to fetch one of her own long down jackets for Sheng Tang to wear.
The down jacket was white, a style she quite liked. She and Sheng Tang were similar in build and height, so there was no problem with Sheng Tang wearing her clothes.
Sheng Tang thanked her.
She was really about to leave.
However, it seemed that tonight was destined to keep her here, as the doorbell rang again at that moment.
Mrs. Ding, with a smile on her face, stood at the door. "Is Miss Sheng still here?"
Song Chen had told Mrs. Ding Sheng Tang’s name and his home address.
Mrs. Ding had settled her child with another bodyguard temporarily staying at her house, had a stern talk with the irresponsible nanny, and finally had the time to come over to thank Sheng Tang.
"Miss Sheng, I must thank you no matter what today!" Mrs. Ding said, her eyes moistening, "Otherwise, I really wouldn’t have made it."
The bandit had already been taken away by the police, and she had notified her husband, who was filming out of town, and things were likely to be resolved quickly.
Mrs. Ding knew Sheng Tang wasn’t a suspect and hadn’t staged the whole incident; otherwise, she wouldn’t have risked her life to apprehend one of the robbers.
Therefore, Mrs. Ding’s gratitude towards her was genuine.
"No need to thank me, it was really just a small effort," Sheng Tang said with a smile.
Gu Shiyan personally poured Mrs. Ding a glass of water.
Mrs. Ding recognized her as the celebrity Lan Fei, whom she had met a few times before, but she didn’t have the mind to chat with her at the moment.
She expressed her gratitude to Sheng Tang once again.
Sheng Tang was humble for a while, running out of things to say. Mrs. Ding, on the other hand, could talk quite a lot.
Seeing Sheng Tang struggling to handle it, Gu Shiyan interrupted by asking Mrs. Ding, "I feel like I’ve seen you before, could we have met in the neighborhood?"
Mrs. Ding smiled, "Miss Lan, we’ve met at two New Year’s Eve parties. I’m Ding Ruifan’s wife."
Sheng Tang: "..."
Gu Shiyan: "..."
This neighborhood had too many rich people living in it, and Gu Shiyan, who intentionally distanced herself from the local social scene, didn’t really know that Ding Ruifan lived here too.
Mrs. Ding, who used to be a film producer, was quite renowned in the industry. It was heard that last year, she had an illness, possibly a tumor, which was later removed.
This incident had a significant impact on Mrs. Ding, making her realize that with the wealth she and her husband already had, there was no need to pursue more, and that their two young children needed their mother’s company.
Therefore, she shifted her focus entirely to family life.
"What a coincidence, I worked with Brother Ding on ’Invincible Life,’" Sheng Tang said.
Mrs. Ding was pleasantly surprised, "Really? You know my husband?"
