Chapter 525 Calling Second Uncle Is No Longer Appropriate
Shi Nuan met Song Yansheng during breakfast.
Earlier when she went downstairs, she ran into Aunt Hui, who told her that Mr. Song was outside on a phone call.
Shi Nuan just responded with an "oh" and didn’t say much, then sat down on a chair in the living room.
Aunt Hui poured her a cup of tea, but she only had a few sips, her eyes occasionally glancing towards the door.
Aunt Hui was cleaning nearby and frowned slightly seeing Shi Nuan like this.
A few days before, the two were clearly on edge, but recently, things seemed to have improved a lot.
Especially Shi Nuan, she seemed more and more attentive towards Mr. Song.
However, Aunt Hui wasn’t too surprised, since Mr. Song’s looks, vibe, and abilities were all flawless. Shi Nuan was just a young girl, how could she resist Mr. Song’s tenderness?
She just wondered whether this was ultimately good or bad for Mr. Song.
Song Yansheng returned after almost twenty minutes, and by that time, it was nearly time to eat.
His brows were furrowed, his expression wasn’t very good, and since the call earlier had been so long, it seemed something was up.
Shi Nuan stood up, looked at him, and called out, "Second Uncle..."
In fact, given their current relationship, calling him "Second Uncle" was already inappropriate.
But if she didn’t call him "Second Uncle," what should she call him? A Yu? Or... husband?
A Yu would be more acceptable, but husband, she really couldn’t bring herself to call him that!
Song Yansheng didn’t seem to notice the change in Shi Nuan’s emotions, he just nodded and stepped forward to hold Shi Nuan’s hand, asking, "Did you sleep well?"
Shi Nuan’s eyes flickered, she nodded lightly, with a slight blush quietly rising on her cheeks.
Seeing this, Song Yansheng’s expression finally softened a bit, he turned his gaze to Aunt Hui and instructed, "Is breakfast ready?"
Aunt Hui quickly bowed and said, "...it’s being served immediately!"
...
Song Yansheng took Shi Nuan to the dining room for breakfast, and it was at the breakfast table that Shi Nuan learned why Song Yansheng had been frowning earlier.
Just now, Song Yansheng’s friend Gu Zheng had called, saying that he would bring Qin Ran over this morning.
Song Yansheng had a rough idea of what it was about.
Last week, his mother had stayed at Song Mansion for two nights, and the night watch at Song Mansion was considered very strict—enough to deter ordinary people.
But Zhong Jinnan, that was simply not the case.
Zhong Jinnan had sought out his mother again; that man actually went to find her again.
Song Yansheng was furious, enraged, yet powerless.
Yes, he was strong now, formidable and almost omnipotent, instilling fear.
But when it came to Zhong Jinnan, he had no way, not a single solution.
He detested Zhong Jinnan, wishing he would stay far away from his mother and their family’s world forever.
But he also had to admit that if it hadn’t been for Zhong Jinnan back then, their family might have long since met with disaster.
Zhong Jinnan had learned that his father’s condition was improving and that he might wake up at any time.
He was using this to threaten his mother, or perhaps blackmailing him, wanting to see Qin Ran.
Nowadays, Yan Ke had been discharged from the hospital, but because of Zhong Jinnan, Yan Ke didn’t dare to look for Qin Ran.
With no other means, Zhong Jinnan sought out Song Yansheng.
Many could hide Qin Ran from the world, but to do so flawlessly, only Song Yansheng could manage that.
Zhong Jinnan was smart, but he actually didn’t want to involve Yu Yao in these matters.
Yet if he didn’t go through Yu Yao, Song Yansheng would probably not be afraid of him, even if he stood in opposition to help Song Zhongming.
This boy, Zhong Jinnan knew him, but Zhong Jinnan, did Song Yansheng not understand him as well?
Gu Zheng said, "Qin Ran doesn’t blame you. He has prepared himself mentally to see Zhong Jinnan; he just doesn’t trust Zhong Jinnan, fearing that he might harm A qing!"
