Chapter 339

Lin Wu smiled faintly and said, "The matter was handled, so I came over."

The truth was that she was uneasy; she had left Xundu before the meeting was even halfway through.

She knew that Feng Tingshen didn't need to attend the meeting Rong Ci was at today, but just as she had expected, he had actually run down from upstairs specifically to listen to Rong Ci's meeting.

Thinking of this, her heart felt sour, and her expression was somewhat stiff.

Feng Tingshen checked the time: "I have a video conference in ten minutes that won't end for over an hour. Shall we go upstairs and sit for a while first?"

Lin Wu: "Okay."

In the afternoon, Lin Wu returned to the Lin family. When Old Lady Sun saw her, she asked, "Why are you back so soon? Didn't you go out to eat with Tingshen?"

"He still has things to be busy with."

"I see."

Lin Wu was a bit tired. After changing her shoes, she wanted to go upstairs to rest. Sun Yueqing looked at the expression on her face and asked, "Did something happen? You've seemed to be in a bad mood lately."

Lin Wu paused imperceptibly before acting as if nothing was wrong and saying, "It's nothing, just a bit tired."

There had indeed been many internal matters at Xundu recently, and key technologies had yet to achieve a breakthrough, so it was normal for her to be annoyed.

Therefore, Sun Yueqing didn't ask further, only saying she had someone simmer some tonics for her and told her to come eat some.

Jian Nian had also finished work.

Seeing Lin Wu sit down beside her, she greeted her: "Cousin."

Lin Wu replied with a faint "Mm."

While Lin Wu was eating, Xiang Rufang was cracking melon seeds and, remembering something, suddenly said, "By the way, that daughter of the Su family was dumped by the Tang family."

The Su family and Tang family that Xiang Rufang mentioned were actually people from Y City.

The Su family and Tang family were of equal social standing, and the Su family's daughter and the Tang family's eldest young master had grown up together. Both sides were very outstanding, and it was said their relationship had always been quite good.

The Su family's daughter was not bad-looking, and it was said she studied well. While in university, she had already obtained several patents, directly taking her family's company to a higher level.

The Tang family was also very satisfied with this future daughter-in-law. It was heard they were going to get married recently, so no one expected the Tang family to actually call off the engagement.

Old Lady Sun also became interested and asked, "Why did they suddenly call off the engagement? Did something happen?"

"This matter is a bit dramatic. I heard that the Tang family young master cheated with the Su family daughter's assistant. The assistant is also said to be a graduate student with decent ability. Although her ability is nowhere near the Su family daughter's in terms of professionalism, it's said she has an interesting personality, unlike the Su family daughter who only has work on her mind, is too dull, and only knows how to stay in the lab all day. Anyway, the Tang family's eldest young master is now determined to call off the engagement—"

Old Lady Sun: "Wasn't it said before that the Tang family young master really liked and appreciated the Su family daughter? He even thought she was very talented, and the Su family daughter was also good-looking. The Tang family young master was also known for being steady and self-controlled; it's hard to imagine him doing such a thing."

"Isn't that so? But, it's hard to say when it comes to a man's preference, right? It's not like the more outstanding someone is, the more a man will like them in this world."

"Exactly." Sun Liyao was still in a bad mood, and hearing this, she couldn't help but chime in: "So what if the Su family's eldest young lady is talented and capable? Other than being a bit talented, she has no other features. After a long time, it's very normal for the Tang family young master to feel annoyed."

Lin Wu had originally just been listening listlessly.

Hearing this, she suddenly paused and raised her head.

Rong Ci was indeed outstanding enough in her professional field.

But other than professional ability, Rong Ci was indeed inferior to her in every way.

Moreover, even if Feng Tingshen didn't know yet that Rong Ci was Nan Zhizhi's student, he already knew quite a bit about Rong Ci's strength.

But now, at most, he only had a bit more appreciation for Rong Ci than before; he hadn't said—

Recalling when she went to the Feng Corporation in the morning, Feng Tingshen hadn't looked back at Rong Ci once after learning she had arrived and had taken her upstairs instead. The haze that had shrouded Lin Wu for days was suddenly swept away, and a smile finally appeared on her face.
