Chapter 2031 - 1837: Going Home
"Song Yun, stay behind."
As everyone was heading out, Yineye suddenly called out.
Everyone was puzzled, wondering what Yineye had to say to Song Yun in private.
Nie Wushuang wanted to ask, but was stopped by Yineye’s gaze, and had to leave the study.
After everyone else left and the door was closed, Song Yun looked at Yineye and smiled: "Mr. Yineye, you asked me to stay, what’s the matter?"
Song Yun really didn’t understand what Yineye meant, especially when Yineye looked at him earlier with meaningful eyes, which left him puzzled.
"Sit."
Yineye pointed at the chair in front of the table, motioning Song Yun to sit down.
His attitude was somewhat cold, not like someone treating the savior of Wolf Castle.
Song Yun felt a bit displeased. After all, he had helped them get the Ice Crystal Holy Grail and saved Nie Wushuang’s life, yet he was being treated like this?
Song Yun walked over and sat down, quietly watching Yineye, waiting for him to continue.
Yineye stared at Song Yun for a while, intending to overwhelm him with presence, but to his surprise, Song Yun didn’t take it seriously. He even crossed his legs, showing a nonchalant demeanor, lacking the demeanor of a master.
If not for knowing Song Yun’s performance in the cave, Yineye would have been tempted to act directly.
"You gave us the Ice Crystal Holy Grail, and Wolf Castle is very grateful to you."
Yineye’s words were formal and polite.
Then, his tone shifted coldly, with a hint of questioning: "However, what exactly is your intent with getting close to Wushuang?"
Getting close to Wushuang?
Song Yun looked baffled, realizing that Yineye seemed to have misunderstood.
He asked: "Mr. Yineye, what do you mean?"
Seeing Song Yun’s puzzled expression, which didn’t seem feigned, Yineye’s heart skipped a beat. Could he have been mistaken?
Impossible, this kid definitely isn’t a proper person.
Yineye’s face turned cold again, saying solemnly: "Song Yun, don’t think I don’t know what you’ve done. You previously snuck into the manor, entered Wushuang’s room, deceived her, claiming to be someone from her dreams. Hmph, you might fool Wushuang, but you can’t fool me."
Upon hearing this, Song Yun’s mouth twitched, finally understanding what was going on.
It turned out that the reason Yineye treated him as an enemy was actually due to Nie Wushuang.
The previous dissatisfaction towards Yineye instantly vanished.
Instead, Song Yun quite liked Yineye’s protective attitude.
It was like a father who cares for his daughter being cautious of the boys around her. Can one say this father is wrong?
Yineye wasn’t a father, but he played the role of one.
Yineye continued: "Song Yun, you deceived Wushuang and then followed her to Sha Country. If you have no intentions towards her, I absolutely don’t believe it. I warn you, although Wushuang isn’t my biological daughter, if you harm her, I will definitely not let you go."
Upon hearing this threat, even though Yineye’s eyes were fierce, Song Yun couldn’t help but feel like laughing.
"Hahaha..."
He couldn’t hold back and laughed out loud.
Yineye was taken aback, asking irritably: "What are you laughing at?"
Song Yun said: "Mr. Yineye, first I need to explain that it was indeed my mistake to break into Bailuode Manor last time. My original target was the Desla Family, but I mistakenly entered Xiao’er’s room. However, I didn’t harm her, and I only lied to her to prevent her from being frightened."
"Moreover, I didn’t follow Xiao’er to Sha Country. Even if I did, it was precisely because of this that I saved her life and also brought back the Ice Crystal Holy Grail for you. Logically, I should be your benefactor. Is this how you treat a benefactor?"
Upon hearing this, Yineye’s expression became somewhat awkward.
In his heart, he was indeed grateful to Song Yun, but because of the worry that Nie Wushuang might be deceived by him, he had put on a stern face.
Song Yun paused, with a playful smile on his face, he said: "Lastly, Mr. Yineye, if you always want to drive away the men around Wushuang, she might never get married in her life. Do you want her to live alone forever?"
Yineye froze for a moment, his tone softened a bit, but he still retorted: "Her future husband, I will help her find, and he will definitely be the best in background and character. You don’t need to worry about that."
Song Yun shrugged: "Alright, everything is the best. But have you thought that the person you choose, Xiao’er might not like? If she spends her life with someone she doesn’t like, will she be happy?"
Of course not.
Yineye involuntarily gave the answer in his heart.
He fell silent, scrutinizing Song Yun, suddenly realizing that this young man was quite interesting.
"Hahaha..."
Suddenly, Yineye laughed, seeming to have understood everything.
His laughter was hearty, generous, and somewhat kindly.
He looked at Song Yun, his gaze much warmer, with a hint of appreciation, nodding: "Song Yun, you’re quite interesting."
"That’s what others say."
Song Yun smiled, acknowledging it.
Seeing his thick skin, Yineye was momentarily taken aback, before laughing again: "Hahaha, interesting, indeed interesting."
The young and the old both shared a laugh.
"Song Yun, by helping Wolf Castle acquire the Ice Crystal Holy Grail, you’ve essentially gifted Wolf Castle a lower marquis. There is no treasure that can compare to a lower marquis, but I, Yineye, assure you, from now on, Wolf Castle will be your ally. If the Desla Family tries to move against you, as long as we have the capability, Wolf Castle will certainly assist you."
