Chapter 676: Song Yansheng’s Explanation
Ji Yunjin was clearly taken aback and wanted to persuade them to stay but didn’t know how to start.
In the end, she could only watch helplessly as the two people left.
Following Song Yansheng out of the room, Shi Nuan felt her heart warm up a bit.
But she felt that it was inappropriate, after all Ji Yunjin was an elder...
Just as she was thinking about how to say a few comforting words, a light and melodious voice suddenly sounded in her ear: "A Yu, so you’re here, Aunt and I have been looking for you for a long time!"
Shi Nuan looked up, and it was that woman again.
At this moment, she was supporting Yu Yao, walking towards them.
She looked at Song Yansheng. He frowned slightly, his face not looking good, while the woman and Yu Yao had already come close.
The woman looked at Shi Nuan, who was being held by Song Yansheng. Her expression clearly showed disbelief and doubt.
She asked, "A Yu, she is...?"
In that instant, Shi Nuan instinctively tried to withdraw her hand, but Song Yansheng tightened his grip.
Then, he spoke in a calm voice: "This is my wife, Shi Nuan..."
The woman’s face showed even more disbelief, looking at him, her eyes gradually turning a bit red from shock.
Shi Nuan didn’t know what to think, nor did she know what Song Yansheng was thinking.
She also didn’t understand whether Song Yansheng revealed her identity so quickly to acknowledge her, or if it was purely out of spite!
A moment later, the woman smiled, but the smile was somewhat bitter.
Then she said: "So... so you’re married!"
After she spoke, the tears in her eyes almost fell instantly.
She swiftly turned around and left, after a few steps she started running.
Yu Yao, worried, called out to her: "Xiangling..."
But the woman paid no attention, and her silhouette quickly disappeared...
Song Yansheng seemed completely indifferent and said to Yu Yao: "Mom, it’s getting late, we should go home!"
Yu Yao frowned: "But Xiangling, she..."
"Mom..." Song Yansheng interrupted Yu Yao, again saying: "We should go home now!"
Yu Yao glanced at her son, in the end said nothing, and turned to leave.
...
On the way back, the car was quite silent.
Yu Yao didn’t speak, Shi Nuan didn’t speak, Song Yansheng asked Shi Nuan a few questions which she answered briefly.
In other words, the atmosphere was quite chilly.
The place they returned to was the Song Family Mansion, Yu Yao originally wanted to keep the two for lunch, but Song Yansheng insisted on taking Shi Nuan to the Song Mansion.
Yu Yao knew her son had something on his mind, so she indulged him.
Going back to the Song Mansion, Song Yansheng drove himself, Shi Nuan sat in the front passenger seat.
The two remained silent.
About ten minutes later, Song Yansheng lightly spoke: "Xiangling is Aunt Ji’s daughter. I met her a few times when I was young, but we are not very close, at least not in my heart. Later, I went to America, and in about half a year, she went to Canada, so the distance wasn’t very close, but she often visited me..."
Shi Nuan’s eyes flickered slightly, thinking, is Song Yansheng explaining to her now?
She pursed her lips and softly replied, "Mhm."
Song Yansheng continued: "In my heart, I always considered her like a sister, occasionally, just occasionally, when I see her being quiet, I have some thoughts, but that’s all. I know very clearly what kind of woman I want, or which woman I want, and it’s not her, no matter who it might be instead, I wouldn’t want them... not them at all... So, Nuannuan, do you understand what I mean?"
