On the way back, Song Yansheng’s face wasn’t looking good. Even though he knew that because of him, Li Guirong and her daughter wouldn’t do anything to Shi Nuan, he still sent her back to the Shi Family.
But this also ant a temporary separation from Shi Nuan. He was used to hugging the soft body of the little girl to sleep every night. Without her company, he feared he wouldn’t be able to fall asleep.
Moreover, he was well aware that Shi Nuan didn’t like or want to go back to the Shi Family, so figuring out how to bring this up with her was also a problem.
Suddenly, the phone in his pocket rang. He took it out and glanced at the caller ID—it was Gu Zheng.
He quickly answered the call, "Hello?"
Gu Zheng’s voice ca through imdiately, "Hey, A Yu, about that Xue Mobei you asked to investigate, I’ve found sothing!"
"Oh?" Song Yansheng frowned slightly, waiting for him to continue.
Gu Zheng said, "About ten years ago, Xue Mobei did indeed appear in City T. After that, he disappeared without a trace and hasn’t been seen since. However, I found so important information that I think you need to know!"
Song Yansheng’s voice deepened as he spoke lowly, spitting out a single word, "Speak!"
Gu Zheng: "Xue Mobei is the husband of Ji Yunjin, the cheongsam designer who had a good relationship with your mother. In other words, he’s the biological father of your confidante Ji Xiangling. Additionally..."
Gu Zheng paused for a mont and then continued, "Additionally, it seems he appeared at a party tonight..."
...
Shi Family.
That night, Li Guirong accompanied Shi Yuanbo to a banquet.
Also attending the banquet were Song Zhongming and Liang Yue’e.
Since Yu Dou and Song Qingyang’s wedding was about a month away, it was natural for both families to exchange pleasantries.
Li Guirong was evidently more experienced dealing with such occasions than Liang Yue’e.
The n conversed with one another, while the won did the sa.
Li Guirong, noticing that Liang Yue’e seed unwell, asked out of concern. Although Liang Yue’e has always been low-key and reserved, her relationship with Song Zhongming hasn’t been great recently, but she still maintains her husband’s dignity in public.
She offered a faint smile, saying it was nothing, just that she hadn’t been sleeping well lately.
Li Guirong said, "Not sleeping well is mostly due to overthinking. I wasn’t sleeping well recently either, and I specifically asked friends abroad to get so calming tea, which worked quite well. If you need it, sister-in-law, after the banquet, I can have so sent to Nanshan Residence..."
Liang Yue’e thought it was too much trouble, shaking her head to decline, because Nanshan Residence already had calming tea, and her poor complexion wasn’t due to lack of sleep but because of Song Zhongming.
But before she could speak, she suddenly noticed a gold chain around Li Guirong’s neck.
She squinted her eyes a bit, sowhat in disbelief because this chain seed very similar to one she might have.
Li Guirong’s cheongsam had the chain inside, with a pearl pendant outside, and it was just inadvertently seen just now, but when Li Guirong sat up straight, the chain was covered again.
Li Guirong hadn’t noticed and thought her lack of response ant she agreed, so she smiled and said, "Let’s settle it then. I’ll call ho afterwards, so my sister-in-law can have the tea when she gets back tonight!"
Liang Yue’e wanted to ask sothing but ultimately kept her mouth shut.
She was afraid of causing misunderstandings and making things worse, sounding the alarm needlessly.
She thought it better to discuss it thoroughly with her brother when she got back.
Previously asking her brother to investigate whether her husband had an illegitimate child outside hadn’t yielded any clues yet.
A sudden commotion in the crowd drew the attention of both won, interrupting their conversation.
From the distance at the entrance, a middle-aged man in a suit erged suddenly.
A young and beautiful woman was holding the man’s arm, and the two were speaking softly to each other, looking very harmonious.
When they recognized the man’s face, both Liang Yue’e and Li Guirong were montarily stunned, hardly believing their eyes.
Especially Liang Yue’e, her mind practically exploded for a mont, and her body stiffened in her chair.
The wine glass she was holding in her hand suddenly dropped to the ground with a "crash," splashing wine onto Li Guirong’s dress.
Li Guirong quickly stood up, screaming.
Liang Yue’e, however, seed oblivious, staring blankly at the man.
She felt as though she were dreaming, no, she must be dreaming.
...
Before Liang Yue’e married Song Zhongming, she secretly admired a man, but the ridiculous part was that she hadn’t t him many tis.
