Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets novel Chapter 838

Chapter 838: Chapter 838: I Can Help You

Sun Rou opened the door and saw Shen Jing standing outside in a suit and tie. His tall, well-toned body exuded confidence, and his distinct facial features, alongside a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, added to his mature masculine charm.

His gaze was deep and unfathomable, as if having experienced the changes of the world and the baptism of time, making it both profound and clear. An aura of strength surrounded him, causing Sun Rou to unconsciously hold her breath and concentrate.

Sun Rou involuntarily took a step back, her eyes showing a hint of shock.

While Sun Rou scrutinized him, Shen Jing was also assessing Sun Rou. With the exact same face, the feeling Lian Qingqing gave to Shen Jing was one of shrewd calculation, thinking she could cunningly manipulate everyone. In Lian Qingqing’s heart, only she herself was most important.

He disliked Lian Qingqing’s calculating face similar to Xiang Yazhi’s, yet the same face on Sun Rou’s features gave him a completely different feeling.

Sun Rou was very nervous, her eyes bright and clear, exuding kindness. Her shocked appearance was somewhat endearing.

Shen Jing’s stern face softened considerably, as he said, "Won’t you invite me in?"

"Please come in."

Sun Rou belatedly stepped aside, allowing Shen Jing and his assistant to enter.

Sun Rou looked at Shen Jing’s silhouette with complex emotions. The sunlight elongated and highlighted his tall figure, and she was slightly lost: Is this her biological father?

Shen Jing surveyed the house, finding it even more worn-down than the cold data had suggested. His gaze landed on a book that had fallen near the rocking chair. Bending down, he picked it up; it was about fashion design.

Suppressing the turmoil inside, Sun Rou brewed a cup of tea, offered it to him, and said, "Please have some tea."

"You like fashion design?" Shen Jing set the book aside.

"Yes, my sister is a fashion designer, and I want to be like her in the future." Sun Rou brought out two chairs. The breeze swayed the leaves, creating a ’rustling’ sound, dispersing the inner restlessness.

Sun Rou sat on the rocking chair, her back straight, her face adorned with a gentle smile, just like the breeze, bringing a refreshing coolness.

Shen Jing had tasted countless fine teas, yet this simple cup of tea in his hand was remarkably refreshing, its fragrance wafting through the air.

"I heard you’re not well?" Shen Jing inquired, his eyes on Sun Rou’s face.

"Yes." Sun Rou nodded, biting her lip, guilt welling up in her eyes, "I’ve been weak since childhood. My dad and mom used their earnings to send my sister to school and pay for my medical bills."

Sun Rou lifted her head, her clear gaze meeting Shen Jing’s, "I never imagined I wasn’t my parents’ biological child. In this life, I only have my dad and mom and my sister. My current life is peaceful, and I don’t want to disturb this peace."

Sun Rou’s meaning was clear.

Shen Jing paused for a moment, even the assistant beside him silently remarked in his heart: Girl, do you know how powerful Mr. Shen is? How blessed you are to be his daughter?

The assistant silently critiqued inwardly. Suddenly, Shen Jing laughed, saying, "As expected from my daughter, I’ll repay your adoptive parents’ debt."

"What, you’d rather pay it yourself?" Shen Jing questioned upon seeing Sun Rou’s reluctant look.
