The Big Shot is Also Crazy About Me Today

Ji Xiangling sneered, "Don’t think I don’t know. The reason you don’t dare to go too far is that you’re afraid that in the future, if Song Yansheng finds out and despises you, even if he doesn’t want Shi Nuan anymore, he still won’t want you. Chu Jingyun, I know you and I can’t be of one mind. We are bound to become rivals sooner or later, but before we become rivals, Shi Nuan is our common enemy. I hope you understand!"

Chu Jingyun’s eyes trembled, but she said nothing.

Ji Xiangling continued, "I’ve already called Shi Nuan. That girl is not a fool. She will definitely investigate, but she wouldn’t dare directly ask Shen Zui. So, she’ll definitely start with Lv Nan Nan. I just want to know, are you sure you have Lv Nan Nan under control?"

Chu Jingyun laughed, "Why should I do anything? You must believe there are people who dislike Shi Nuan just as much as you and I!"

Ji Xiangling narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at Chu Jingyun for a moment, then nodded, "That’s good!"

...

Yu Dou and Song Qingyang timed their visit to the Song Family Mansion perfectly.

They entered the mansion gates right at nine o’clock.

As they got out of the car, Song Qingyang noticed the black Mercedes parked beside her and narrowed her eyes slightly.

She naturally knew Song Yansheng’s car and license plate number.

She asked the servant who came to greet them, "Is my Second Uncle here?"

The servant replied, "Mr. and Lady came yesterday afternoon."

Song Qingyang furrowed her brow, "Right, yesterday was Second Uncle’s birthday. According to tradition, he needs to go to the temple to pay respects to our ancestors, so he must have returned!"

Yu Dou glanced at Song Qingyang and said to the servant, "We brought some gifts for the Old Lady. They’re in the trunk, please have someone bring them in!"

The servant acknowledged, and only then did Yu Dou look at Song Qingyang and ask, "Shall we go in now?"

Song Qingyang pressed her lips together, "Of course, we should go in!"

After speaking, Song Qingyang hooked her arm around Yu Dou’s, and the two of them walked together toward the main house.

In the living room, Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan were chatting with Yu Yao when it was announced that Song Qingyang and Yu Dou had arrived.

Yu Yao was delighted and invited them in quickly.

Soon, Song Qingyang and Yu Dou appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Seeing Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan, Song Qingyang paused her steps.

Yu Dou continued to lead her forward, greeting everyone with a friendly and respectful demeanor, showing good manners.

Yu Yao and Yu Dou were considered distant relatives, but tracing back, the connection was indeed very remote.

Saying there’s no real relation wouldn’t be too much.

However, Yu Yao genuinely liked Yu Dou.

Yu Dou, this child, who grew up without parents, achieved so much, which is nothing.

The crucial point is that this child’s upbringing and character weren’t diminished by his circumstances.

This is rare.

For Song Qingyang to marry Yu Dou, in Yu Yao’s eyes, it was a wonderful marriage.

Even though Song Qingyang didn’t quite like Yu Dou yet, Yu Yao believed given time, she would see Yu Dou’s good qualities and slowly fall in love with him.

After some casual chatter, Yu Yao took Yu Dou and Song Qingyang to the temple in the backyard.

By tradition, they didn’t need to go to the temple to pay respects, but Yu Yao genuinely cared for Song Qingyang.

She also hoped for Song Qingyang’s happiness and wished for the ancestors to bless this young couple, hence she took them along.

After they left, Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan didn’t stay in the room either.

Song Yansheng took Shi Nuan for a walk in the front courtyard.

The weather today was nice, the autumn sky was clear and brisk, though there was still a bit of chill.

Since Shi Nuan fell into the water last time, her body became a bit sensitive to the cold, and with autumn just appearing, she already felt the chill.

But with Song Yansheng by her side, holding her hand, much of her coldness dissipated.

When they reached the gardenia field in the southwestern corner of the front yard, Shi Nuan halted.

Once, Ye Mingmei dug something out of the flower beds in the southwestern corner, which was Song Yansheng’s secret, and Shi Nuan didn’t dare to look.

Now, knowing she was the one in Song Yansheng’s heart, could she see it then?

However, if she spoke up now, wouldn’t it mean she knew long ago that Song Yansheng had buried a secret there?

"Does Nuannuan like treehouses?"

Suddenly, Song Yansheng asked a question.

Shi Nuan was momentarily stunned, then said, "Yes, I like them. But to be precise, I prefer my grandfather’s treehouse!"

Because of the memories with her grandfather, Shi Nuan loved treehouses.

Because of her grandfather, she held onto the thought of treehouses for many years.

Shi Nuan spoke the truth.

Song Yansheng nodded, "Actually, when the Song Mansion was first being built, I considered constructing a treehouse. But I was afraid it would evoke your sadness about your grandfather, so I ultimately decided against it..."
