The Wen family’s old residence.

Song Xi thought Grandma wanted to see Wen Yu, but she did not expect the Lin family to be at the old residence.

When Song Xi saw Lin Wenyi and Old Master Lin, a cold smile appeared on her face, but no one saw it.

As long as Lin Wenyi could not deal with Wen Yu, she would bring Old Master Lin out in her previous life. After all, Old Master Lin and Grandma were old acquaintances.

To Grandma, Lin Wenyi was a much more suitable granddaughter-in-law than Song Xi, who was forced into their family.

Moreover, the Song family and the Lin family were aware of this.

In Grandma’s opinion, Song Xi had lost to Lin Wenyi in every aspect. There was a saying where, if two childhood friends wanted to be together, no one could stop them, not even the destruction of Earth.

Old Madam Wen held Lin Wenyi’s hand and was talking about family matters. The arrival of Wen Yu and Song Xi only made Old Madam Wen raise her eyelids without much change in expression.

When Old Master Lin came up, he said he had a few projects to discuss with Wen Yu. Wen Yu originally wanted to reject, but Song Xi whispered in his ear, “Don’t worry, I can do it. You talk to Uncle Lin. I’ll wait for you.”

Song Xi smiled at Wen Yu obediently.

Thinking that this little woman in front of him was different from before, maybe she could really handle it, Wen Yu went upstairs with Master Lin.

However, as soon as Wen Yu left, Old Madam Wen pointed at Song Xi and said coldly, “Come here.”

“Is there anything, Grandma?” Song XI smiled apologetically. Even if she were unhappy, even if she did not like it, she would still pretend to be very happy when facing the Wen family.

With that, Wen Yu would not be in a difficult position, and he would not feel uncomfortable.

Old Madam Wen did not say a lot to Song Xi as she had made it clear that she liked Lin Wenyi more.

Grandma intended to let Song Xi leave on her own, but Song was like a dumb girl because she could not understand anything Grandma told her.

Old Madam Wen saw this and frowned, pointing at Song Xi and sneering, “I don’t need to tell you what kind of character your Song family is, right?”

“Grandma, no matter how bad the Song family is, I’m still Wen Yu’s wife. It’s not good for you to scold your granddaughter-in-law in front of outsiders!”

Song Xi smiled and looked at Old Madam Wen.

Old Madam Wen did not care about this at all. When she heard Song Xi’s words, she even turned to Lin Wenyi and smiled.

Lin Wenyi tactfully responded with a smile to Old Madam Wen. She then looked at Song Xi and said, “Song Xi, I’m not an outsider. Our Lin family and the Wen family are old friends. Grandma watched me grow up.”

Song Xi did not want to argue with Lin Wenyi in front of Old Madam Wen. Of course, it was not because she was scared, but because she did not want to cause trouble for herself.

Since she knew that old Madam Wen liked Lin Wenyi, no matter what she said at the moment, it would be wrong. She might as well not say it and not do it, leaving the other party helpless.

While Song Xi remained silent, Wen Yu and Old Master Lin came up from downstairs, and Wen Yu had a gloomy expression.

Song Xi did not know what Old Master Lin had said to Wen Yu, but she was sure he told him something terrible.

Wen Yu did not eat when he went downstairs. He only said to Old Madam Wen, “Grandma still has something to do at the company. I have to go back first.”

After Wen Yu finished speaking to Grandma, he did not wait for her reply. He looked at Old Master Lin and said, “Uncle Lin, let’s have dinner together next time.”

“Okay.”

After seeing Wen Yu leave, Lin Wenyi walked up to her father in confusion. Old Master Lin nodded at Lin Wenyi, indicating that she should not worry. Only then did he walk toward Grandma, who had a confused look on her face.

“What’s going on?” Old Madam Wen did not know what had happened as she looked nervously at Old Master Lin.

On the other hand, Old Master Lin smiled at Grandma and said, “It’s fine, and everything went well. Wen Yu, this child, is quite serious about his work.”

“Then let’s eat!”

Although Old Master Lin did not say anything, Grandma knew very well that he must have said something harsh to Wen Yu.

Although Lin Wenyi also wanted to know what her father told Wen Yu, she knew it was not the right time to ask, so she just remained silent.

At that time, Wen Yu had already brought Song Xi into the car.

On the way, Song Xi held Wen Yu’s hand. Her bright eyes were full of doubt as she asked, “Could it be that Old Master Lin forced you to marry Lin Wenyi?”

Song Xi had only said it casually. She did not expect Wen Yu to look at Song Xi.

With that, she knew that she was right. She looked at Wen Yu in shock. “Is the Lin family always so direct?”

“It’s all because of you.” Wen Yu was furious when he thought about how Song Xi had brought him and Lin Wenyi together..
