Chapter 883: Those Years, Those Affairs 5
Even Song Yinyin noticed something off.
"So, that means... things from back then were really strange. I always feel my mom must have had some hidden reason to propose breaking up with you."
"You think so too?" President Shi Mai’er felt a tightness in his chest.
Song Yinyin responded with a hum.
"My feelings towards your mother were strong. Although there were some unhappy moments due to photos and love letters between her and Yan Zhengsong, none of those should have led us to break up..."
Song Yinyin also nodded.
"If she broke up with you because of Yan Zhengsong, then why did she later not go to him but instead married Song Huaizhong? Jinhan, do you think there’s something odd about this?"
She turned to ask Lu Jihan.
Lu Jihan hummed in agreement, furrowing his brow, "It is indeed odd. I think something must have happened among them, but... the President doesn’t know what transpired back then, and both your mother and Yan Zhengsong have passed away, Song Huaizhong seems unaware too... Looking at it this way, it seems no one knows the truth of what happened back then."
Suddenly, Song Yinyin remembered someone.
"No, there might be someone who knows."
Lu Jihan was taken aback, "You mean Yan Zhengsong’s older brother, Yan Zhengxiong?"
"Yes, precisely him!"
Song Yinyin’s face tensed, saying, "Back when the old man insisted on my engagement to Yan Kejun, he was not pleased. I’ve always felt he disliked me, but never knew why."
She frowned slightly, "I always thought he just couldn’t stand me, but now I think about the look in his eyes... I can’t quite describe how Yan Zhengsong looked at her, it’s like she had some deep-seated hatred with him."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jihan slightly narrowed his amber eyes.
"But these are all just our conjectures, without any basis. We might need to find an opportunity to meet him to find the answers. Besides..."
Pausing slightly, his handsome brow furrowed even tighter, "Whether he’d be willing to talk is another matter entirely. Anyway, this issue can’t be rushed."
Song Yinyin nodded, agreeing with his view.
Even though she’s not in the business world, she knows somewhat that currently in the Imperial City, Yan’s Enterprise and Mainland Group are the strongest competitors.
Moreover, Yan Zhengxiong is like an old fox, getting the truth from him about the past might be like climbing heaven itself.
"But don’t worry, no matter what, I’ll definitely help you get to the bottom of this," Lu Jihan said, looking at Song Yinyin, tightly holding her hands.
President Shi Mai’er felt extremely pleased seeing the two of them deeply in love, gazing at each other with affection.
"Yinyin, I suddenly feel a bit thirsty, could you pour some water for me? Also, Shana, you go cut some fruit for Yinyin and Mr. Lu."
Shana and Song Yinyin exchanged a look, both knowing clearly that their father wanted to send them off so he could speak with Lu Jihan alone.
Song Yinyin felt a bit uneasy about Lu Jihan, unsure of what her father would say to him.
Seeing the worry in her eyes, Shana teased her with, "Oh come on, my dad’s not a tiger. He won’t eat him, don’t worry, it’ll be fine."
With those words, she took Song Yinyin by the arm and left the bedroom.
Once they left, only Lu Jihan and President Shi Mai’er were left in the room.
President Shi Mai’er took a deep breath and exclaimed, "Actually, the first time I saw Yinyin, I thought she looked very much like her mother, strikingly similar..."
