Shen Weiyi also knew that there were no permanent friends in business, only permanent interests. Even if these people had two different faces, Shen Weiyi did not find it strange, she lightly nodded towards everyone and greeted, "Weiyi lacks experience, and I will need guidance and care from all shareholders and seniors in the future."
"Miss Shen is too modest! When it comes to managing a company, none of us could match Mr. Shen alone."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Shen is a rare talent in the business world that appears once in a century, we all need to learn from Mr. Shen. With Mr. Shen’s guidance, Miss Shen is bound to become a leader in the business world."
Seeing the two-faced nature of these people, Shen Weiyi suddenly lost interest in staying any longer. Since Shen Juanzhi had returned, she wasn’t needed temporarily. She was about to go out for some air when she saw Sheng Ting outside the door.
"When did you come back? Why didn’t you tell me?" Shen Weiyi’s eyes lit up, she smiled at him, then took the initiative to throw herself into his arms and hugged him.
Sheng Ting was stunned for a moment, that girl was rarely so proactive. Then, he reached out to wrap his arms around her waist and smiled, "I just got off the plane and came over with Uncle Shen and Secretary Jiang."
"I missed you!" Shen Weiyi said.
Although they had been apart for only a week, Shen Weiyi felt as if it had been a long time.
It seemed like she was becoming more and more attached to him.
"I did too." Sheng Ting curved his lips, his eyes brimming with a broken smile, like dazzling stars in the sky.
It was the first time he saw such dependence on him from that girl’s face.
Shen Weiyi leaned in his arms, wanting to say something, when she suddenly noticed a beautiful lady standing behind Sheng Ting, looking at her with a complex expression.
Shen Weiyi hastily withdrew from Sheng Ting’s embrace, a trace of embarrassment flashing across her face.
She nodded politely towards the person.
Meng Shangchu’s gaze continued to rest on her, a hint of something flickering in his eyes.
Following Shen Weiyi’s gaze, Sheng Ting turned and introduced her, "This is Lawyer Meng. She’s a friend of Uncle Shen. When we found Uncle Shen, he was with Lawyer Meng. Uncle Shen came back from abroad with Lawyer Meng this time."
"My dad’s friend?" Shen Weiyi looked up and examined Meng Shangchu for a moment, confirming she had never seen her before.
She didn’t know when her father had made such a beautiful lawyer friend.
"Hello!" Shen Weiyi then proactively greeted her.
Meng Shangchu met her gaze, quickly withdrawing her momentary lapse in expression, and said, "Hello, I’m Meng Shangchu." She paused, then added, "Your father has taught you well."
Shen Weiyi’s eyes flickered, the latter part of the statement sounding oddly to her.
But she didn’t dwell on it.
She then turned her attention back to Sheng Ting, "By the way, why didn’t you inform me earlier that you found my dad?"
"In fact, we ran into Uncle Shen after boarding the plane. We couldn’t find Uncle Shen all this time abroad. Secretary Jiang was worried that you couldn’t handle the shareholders and partners alone, so he thought of coming back first to check on things, and unexpectedly, we met Uncle Shen and Lawyer Meng on the plane."
It really was quite a coincidence.
"Didn’t my dad say where he had been all this time?" Shen Weiyi asked.
Sheng Ting looked towards Meng Shangchu at the side.
Shen Weiyi understood.
Her father must have been with her during this time.
Suddenly curious about her father’s relationship with the person in front of her, to the extent that he left his company and daughter unattended.
Was this a case of middle-aged love?
