Chapter 149: Been A Lifetime

The Si family’s power struggle became more and more intense as the Spring Festival approached.

When it was almost lunchtime, Zheng Wen appeared in Si Cheng’s office with chicken soup. “Son, I made chicken soup for you. You haven’t been back to the old residence for a long time.”

Si Cheng pressed the space between his eyebrows. “There are many things to do in the company. It’s more convenient to stay in the city.”

When Zheng Wen saw Si Cheng’s tired look, she quickly poured out a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to him. “Come, drink some soup to nourish yourself first.”

Si Cheng took the chicken soup and took a sip. He paused for a moment before looking up and asking, “Mom, did you make this yourself?”

When Zheng Wen saw that Si Cheng could tell that she had made it herself with a single bite, a smile appeared on her face. “That’s right. I haven’t stewed it for a long time. It was your favorite when you were young. Later on, when you went overseas to study, 1 slowly cooked less and less.”

Si Cheng glanced at Zheng Wen and also reminisced about the past. Then, he lowered his head and continued drinking slowly.

Zheng Wen sat on the chair opposite Si Cheng. “Si Cheng, your grandfather’s thoughts are similar to your father’s. He thinks that between you and that bastard, whoever has more capability will take over the position. Men are all cold-hearted! He doesn’t care about the relationship between him and his grandchild who has accompanied him for so many years!”

“Your grandmother watched you grow up. She wanted to help, but her words were useless, so we can only rely on ourselves now!”

Si Cheng’s hand that was holding the spoon paused for a moment before he replied in a low voice, “I understand.”

Zheng Wen saw that she had already said so much, but Si Cheng still did not mention the marriage. She knew that Si Cheng was most likely still thinking about that woman.

Zheng Wen endured it and said calmly, “I know you still have feelings for Tan Ming, but Si Cheng, a man should prioritize his career. You’ve put in so much effort into the Si Corporation and have been nurtured as the heir since you were young. Ever since you went to university, you’ve been familiar with the company’s affairs.”

“Do you really have the heart to give everything that belongs to you to those two bustards?”

Si Cheng put down the spoon in his hand and took a deep breath. He looked at Zheng Wen and said, “Mom, 1 know what you mean. I’ve been contacting Bai Ting. Give me more time. I want to try using my own ability.”

Zheng Wen closed her eyes and sighed softly. “That pair of siblings are very cunning. There are safer shortcuts. Why take the difficult one? This matter can’t be delayed any longer. At most, it will take half a month. After the new year, you have to end it.”

Si Cheng didn’t say anything, but this time, Zheng Wen didn’t let him hesitate. “Si Cheng, being indecisive will only cause trouble. You’re a man. You have to be decisive. Give me a definite answer now.”

Si Cheng was silent for a few seconds before replying in a low voice, “Okay.”

Zheng Wen received a satisfactory answer before packing up the thermos flask and leaving.

Si Cheng got off work early in the afternoon and waited at the entrance of his house. More than an hour later, he saw Tan Ming coming out of the elevator.

Tan Ming was wearing a long white cotton coat that covered her entire body from head to toe. She was wearing a hat that came with the cotton shirt. The brim of the hat was a circle of white fur. Her fair and rosy face was wrapped in it, making her look even more petite and cute.

Si Cheng felt that the two of them had not seen each other for a long time. Now that they had met, it felt like a lifetime had passed.

Tan Ming looked at Si Cheng’s haggard face and was a little surprised. In her impression, even when he was in a vegetative state and could not move, she had never seen Si Cheng like this. However, this had nothing to do with her anymore.

Tan Ming’s gaze swept past Si Cheng as she walked towards her house.

When Si Cheng saw Tan Ming ignoring him, he felt terrible. He couldn’t help but shout, “Tan Ming.”

Tan Ming stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Si Cheng expressionlessly. “What’s the matter?”

Si Cheng only felt that Tan Ming was as cold as ice at this moment. He had not compromised their marriage alliance for her and had persisted until now. However, in exchange, he was treated coldly by Tan Ming. He felt a little disappointed. “I’ve waited for you for more than an hour. Is this your attitude?”

Tan Ming felt that her face, which was exposed to the cold air, was about to freeze. Because of Si Cheng’s obstruction, she could not return to her warm house immediately. She was already in a bad mood, and now that she was questioned by the other party like this, she frowned slightly. She suspected that Si Cheng was a little abnormal because of the illegitimate child. “1 didn’t ask you to wait.. Why are you blaming me?!”
