Chi Rui hesitated slightly, then said, "...It’s like this, about half an hour ago, Mr. Shi Yuanbo, the president of the Shi Family, gave a call, saying he had so matters he wanted to discuss with you..."
Song Yansheng paused in his reading, then a slight smile tugged at his beautiful lips, "His actions are faster than I expected..."
Chi Rui was taken aback, did Mr. Song an that he already knew Shi Yuanbo would call?
...
Chi Rui was right, Song Yansheng had indeed anticipated that Shi Yuanbo would seek him out.
Song Yansheng really couldn’t stand this girl, Shi Jiaojiao.
She liked to act clever but was actually utterly foolish; otherwise, she wouldn’t have initiated an encounter with Nuannuan at this ti.
Although she was foolish, she had one good trait: when she encountered troubles she couldn’t solve, she would first think of seeking her mother, Li Guirong, for help.
Back at the police station, he had stood up to protect Shi Nuan, already affirming that Shi Nuan was his woman.
Shi Jiaojiao was foolish, but Li Guirong was not, otherwise, knowing the exposure incident was publicized by Shi Nuan, she would have already troubled Shi Nuan.
She didn’t, not because she didn’t want to, but because she didn’t dare.
Now, Shi Jiaojiao once again offended Shi Nuan, and it was right in front of Song Yansheng.
Li Guirong naturally knew the weight of the situation, and the only person she could turn to for help was Shi Yuanbo.
Shi Yuanbo’s call ca again ten minutes later.
Song Yansheng lazily answered after the third ring.
Then a clear and mild voice asked, "Who is this?"
On the other end, Shi Yuanbo felt sowhat embarrassed. He knew Song Yansheng was aware he would call, yet even knowing that, Song Yansheng still asked.
Though there was nothing wrong with the tone, it exuded an indifferent, superior oppressive feeling.
Shi Yuanbo said, "Yansheng, it’s ..."
Song Yansheng seed to think for a mont, then acted as if he suddenly realized, "Father in law? So it’s you, I just slipped up and forgot you’d be calling..."
Shi Yuanbo responded with a laugh, saying, "No worries, no worries, I know you’re busy with work..."
Song Yansheng said, "As long as Father in law isn’t upset... May I know the reason for your call?"
Shi Yuanbo didn’t know how to begin, but this call was made for this purpose.
Even if he didn’t know, he still had to speak.
"Yansheng, it’s like this, I heard that during lunch today, Nuannuan and Jiaojiao had so conflict, and it happened to catch your eye... is it true?"
Song Yansheng made a sound of assent and replied, "Indeed, there was such an incident..."
Shi Yuanbo sighed, "The nature of these two girls follows mine, typically stubborn, clashing ever since they were kids, this tumultuous behavior has lasted over ten years and never changes... Anyway, I just gave Jiaojiao a severe scolding, and I told her not to go out recently, to stay ho and reflect properly. I hope Yansheng can help soothe things with Nuannuan, and when there’s a chance, I’ll have Jiaojiao apologize to her personally..."
Shi Yuanbo’s tone was earnest, even carrying a hint of pleading, but to Song Yansheng, it was sowhat laughable.
In truth, he did chuckle slightly, leaving Shi Yuanbo montarily stunned, unsure of the reason.
And it was then that Song Yansheng’s gentle voice ca through.
He said, "Father in law, I call you Father in law because you are Nuannuan’s biological father, and I hold a degree of respect and concession for you. But do you believe that if you weren’t, in just a year, I could destroy the Shi Family with my own hands, and have it disappear entirely from T City!"
