Chapter 475: After All, There Are Many Taboos
Song Yansheng went to the banquet venue, with Chi Rui personally driving the car.
When he got in the car, Song Yansheng noticed Chi Rui hesitating to speak, frowning slightly, and asked, "What’s up?"
Chi Rui’s thin lips moved slightly, and he said, "Mr. Song, I heard that Miss Chu Jingyun will also be attending this banquet..."
Chu Jingyun?
Song Yansheng instantly frowned. He wasn’t too keen on seeing Chu Jingyun, not because he disliked her, but because he resented a certain past experience.
However, since Song Yichuan is now deceased, and he owes this to him, he doesn’t want to pursue it further.
But thinking of discovering on Shi Nuan’s computer that she was following Chu Jingyun, he still had many reservations about her!
Seeing Song Yansheng not responding, Chi Rui continued, "Furthermore, Mr. Song, most guests will be attending the banquet with female companions. Are you sure... you don’t need one?"
In the past, when attending banquets, Song Yansheng occasionally had Yao Ziwan accompany him. Yao Ziwan came from a prestigious family, also a renowned socialite in T City, beautiful and graceful, handling such occasions with ease.
The rumor that Yao Ziwan compromised for love is not without reason. From family background and appearance to temperament, the two were quite compatible.
But today, Song Yansheng insisted on going alone. If Chu Jingyun wasn’t there, it would be fine, but with her present, Chi Rui felt that Song Yansheng couldn’t avoid it.
Bringing a female companion could at least shield Song Yansheng from something!
Song Yansheng squinted slightly and casually tossed two words to Chi Rui: "No need!"
...
At the Song Mansion, after dinner, Shi Nuan didn’t feel like going upstairs so early and decided to take a stroll in the garden.
Although there were actually many people in the mansion these days with Song Yansheng away, she still felt an emptiness.
A kind of inexplicable emptiness.
The weekend was approaching fast, and her body was almost fully recovered. By next Monday...
Next Monday, she should be able to return to work.
Song Yansheng wouldn’t keep her cooped up in the mansion for a lifetime!
Her phone rang in her pocket at that moment, making her heart tremble, a kind of indescribable emotion surging within her.
Her fingers shook as she took out the phone.
But the moment she saw the name, her eyes immediately dimmed.
The call was from Lv Nan Nan, thinking about it, Lv Nan Nan should be attending the mid-month second thesis defense, and there were not many days left.
She took a deep breath, concealing the trace of disappointment in her heart, and answered the call.
Lv Nan Nan called, as expected, about the thesis defense.
Her thesis was complete, and she wanted to send it to Shi Nuan for a look, seeking some guidance.
Lv Nan Nan was considered the most diligent and hardworking in the dormitory. If it were any other time, her thesis wouldn’t need Shi Nuan’s guidance.
But last month, Shi Nuan’s thesis defense was truly brilliant, leaving Lv Nan Nan genuinely impressed.
Shi Nuan naturally wouldn’t refuse and readily agreed.
She even said she would return next week to attend her thesis defense.
Lv Nan Nan was the only one attending the second defense; Ou Xiaoning feared it would be the end-of-month third defense.
According to He Meisui, she was so focused on love that she even delayed graduation.
Lv Nan Nan expressed her gratitude, and Shi Nuan exhaled, looking at the desolate street lamps of the Song Mansion, and said, "Alright, Nannan, send your thesis to my email. I’ll go back and turn on the computer to have a look, talk later..."
Anyway, she didn’t have much else to do now, so reviewing the thesis was a good way to pass the time.
But unexpectedly, Lv Nan Nan stopped her at that moment.
Shi Nuan was surprised and asked, "Nannan, what’s wrong, do you... still have something to say?"
