Chapter 428 His feelings for her began years ago
Gu Zheng nodded, "Song Zhongming was able to take control of the Song Family shortly after A Yu’s father’s accident, which shows he’s definitely not a simple person!"
Qin Ran furrowed his brow before asking, "So how did A Yu respond?"
"What else could he do? Just point out the problems, it’s that simple!"
Qin Ran lowered his gaze, indeed, at times like these, they could only tell the truth to confuse Song Zhongming!
He said, "Actually, I’ve never understood why A Yu wanted to collaborate with Yu Dou to take over the Song Family? Yu Dou is not someone easy to deal with, I’m afraid once he’s fully established, he will be A Yu’s biggest rival!"
Gu Zheng laughed, "Do you think A Yu doesn’t know that? He knows, but he still did it, he had no choice, he was too eager to seek justice for his father and mother, and for himself!"
Qin Ran was momentarily at a loss for words.
Gu Zheng’s dark eyes flickered, and he said, "Moreover, from A Yu’s own perspective, he hopes for the Shi Family to grow strong. After all, what he wants to give to his little beloved wife is a Shi Family as powerful as the Xu Family once was, and since he doesn’t have the energy to build it himself, he can only find someone to help him!"
Qin Ran was taken aback, "You mean, A Yu’s goal is to use the Shi Family to destroy the Song Family, and then give the Shi Family to Shi Nuan?"
Gu Zheng said, "Back then, you were responsible for protecting Shi Nuan and A Yu’s parents in the country, you should be clearer than anyone about A Yu’s feelings for Shi Nuan!"
Qin Ran pressed his lips together, unsure of what to say.
Indeed, back then his adoptive father Zhong Jinnan agreed to the request from Song Yansheng’s mother, Yu Yao, and sent him and Yan Ke separately to protect Song Yansheng abroad and the comatose Song Xiuwen in the country.
At that time, he and Yan Ke were actually not very old, but having been adopted by Zhong Jinnan since they were four, they practiced martial arts, sanda, boxing, free fighting, shooting, swordsmanship, and various other skills from a young age.
Zhong Jinnan was extremely strict, and he and Yan Ke were considered prodigies in Zhong Jinnan’s eyes, so they excelled in every skill they learned.
Protecting them should have been possible.
But what Zhong Jinnan didn’t know was that back then, Song Yansheng, who seemed silent and aloof, almost unapproachable, would take the initiative to approach him.
He requested him to help take care of a little girl named Shi Nuan while protecting his father and mother!
Back then, Song Yansheng held his hand tightly, and he could feel the earnestness and despair in his eyes.
So, he agreed.
He also promised Song Yansheng that he would not tell anyone about this, only the two of them would know.
At first, he only occasionally visited Shi Nuan, took a few photos secretly, and sent them to Song Yansheng abroad; when in the mood, he would shoot a video.
This situation went on for a long time, then Old Master Xu passed away, and after a series of incidents, the Xu Family fell into the hands of one of Shi Nuan’s uncles.
In just three years, the once powerful Xu Family went bankrupt, and eventually, the Shi Family quickly annexed the Xu Family’s assets.
From that time, Song Yansheng felt that the Shi Family was unstable, and sure enough, it wasn’t long before Shi Nuan’s younger aunt Xu Jin left with Shi Nuan’s grandmother, splitting with Shi Nuan’s mother.
A few more months later, Shi Nuan’s mother unexpectedly passed away, and three months after that, Shi Yuanbo publicly married Li Guirong, and even brought back a son and a daughter...
From that time, Qin Ran received Song Yansheng’s request to protect Shi Nuan for him, no matter what, to protect Shi Nuan well...
At that time, Shi Nuan was eleven, and Song Yansheng was nineteen; his feelings for Shi Nuan had already changed.
