The company had turned on the heating. Tang Si wore a light grey velvet sweater on his upper body, paired with black jeans, making him look energetic.
Seeing that the person entering had been standing there for a while without moving, he turned around and saw Meng Jingwei.
A smile appeared on his usually indifferent face. "Little chili pepper, I thought you weren't coming this morning." He tilted his head and glanced behind her. "Where's second brother?"
"He's still in Country C dealing with some matters and won't be back for a while."
Meng Jingwei said this as she walked towards the sofas in the lounge area and sat down. "I came today because I wanted to ask you about Shi Ran."
"Did second brother tell you everything?"
Tang Si walked to the water dispenser and poured Meng Jingwei a glass of hot water, placing it in front of her before sitting opposite her.
"Yes, he told me everything." Meng Jingwei smiled. "Congratulations on the triplets. It seems you did a lot of good deeds in your past life to have accumulated such good fortune."
"Of course." He leaned back on the sofa, full of pride. "No matter what, it's more than second brother. At least I work as a doctor, saving lives and helping the injured. Saving one life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. This is the Buddha's blessing."
Meng Jingwei shot him a glare. "The Buddha is so busy, how could he manage your affairs?"
The two exchanged smiles.
"Let's get back to business." Meng Jingwei's smile faded. "I've always treated Shi Ran like a sister. So much has happened recently, and I happened to be out of the country and didn't know. Fortunately, she still knew to ask Brother Yan Ming for help. Although the matter has been resolved, what about you? A Ye said Shi Ran is four months pregnant and the baby will be born soon. How do you plan to handle it?"
Although Meng Jingwei knew Tang Si's current plan, he had overlooked one crucial point.
That was, if Shi Ran was not given a proper title before the birth of her child, then the three children would be illegitimate.
In an ordinary family, such a situation might not attract much criticism. However, born into a prominent wealthy family and under the spotlight, it was bound to invite endless gossip.
When the children grew up, it would be a lifelong shadow.
Mentioning this matter, Tang Si nodded helplessly, leaning on the sofa with his hands on his legs, his fingers tapping rhythmically.
"Yes, I didn't consider it carefully."
Tang Si sighed. "I know I've wronged Ran Bao'er, but don't worry, within three months, I will definitely give Ran Bao'er a proper title!"
"The Huo family is wealthy and powerful. Three months, can you really do it?" Meng Jingwei wasn't doubting Tang Si, but rather his opponent, the Huo family.
"Huo Chiqian is inherently cunning and shrewd. Even if Zhao Wuyan was blinded by love, with Huo Chiqian around, things won't be as simple as you imagine."
Meng Jingwei voiced her thoughts.
"Second brother and eldest brother have both told me what you're saying." Tang Si sighed regretfully. "I know Huo Chiqian is a difficult opponent, but I believe I have the absolute capability to resolve everything within three months."
"Okay, I believe you." Meng Jingwei supported him unconditionally. "Work hard, and if you need anything, remember to tell Ah Ye and me. I hope you can give Shi Ran and the three children a home."
"I know."
"Also, be wary of Huo Chiqian, and minimize your contact with Shi Ran. There are three children, and if anything happens, it's several lives at stake. Tang Si, Shi Ran's fate has already been very difficult. I truly hope she doesn't encounter any more accidents."
Meng Jingwei genuinely treated Shi Ran as a sister and valued her greatly. She also wished for Shi Ran's happiness.
"I understand everything you're saying."
Tang Si understood Meng Jingwei's good intentions.
The two sat and chatted for a long time before Meng Jingwei left Boran Group.
As soon as she walked out of the company and got into her car, she received a call.
It was Qiao Ziqian's call.
