Reborn As The Big Shot’s Sweetheart

Chapter 22: An Eyesore

The Song family’s old residence.

The arrival of Song Xi and Wen Yu caused the residence to become lively. Father Song was still very polite to Wen Yu. Although Wen Yu was a son-in-law, when Father Song thought of his identity, he could not just treat him as his son-in-law.

“Wen Yu, you must be very busy lately, right?” Father Song asked Wen Yu with a smile.

Wen Yu was very respectful to Father Song as well. He had always been cold and indifferent to strangers, but to Father Song, perhaps because of Song Xi, he would smile at him.

“Not bad.”

Father Song would be the one who was always looking for a topic to converse with Wen Yu. Wen Yu would only give him some straightforward answers.

Wang Jilian was also very attentive. “Little Yu…”

“I have nothing to do with you. You should call me Wen Yu!” Wen Yu voiced out all of a sudden. Song Xi had to admit that he was really handsome when he said that.

Wang Jilian and Song Nan sat opposite Wen Yu and Song Xi. Both of them were dumbfounded when they heard Wen Yu say that.

How could Wang Jilian tolerate such terrible behavior? However, she did not retort Wen Yu as she just smiled awkwardly in response.

Father Song saw that his wife was being treated differently, so he quickly looked at Song Xi. His intention was very clear as he wanted her daughter to help him out.

However, Song Xi would not do such a thing. If Wang Jilian could steal Father Song from Wang Yu, then she should bear the consequences.

Song Xi pretended not to understand Father Song and continued to enjoy her food. Father Song did not hold any hope as he smiled to smooth things over.

Song Nan was staring at Song Xi when she did not help them out. She glared at Song Xi and thought. ‘How dare you!’

Wen Yu was not a talkative person, but he did talk a lot during the family dinner for the sake of his wife.

He peeled prawns, put food on her plate, and even wiped the food off her mouth gently.

When Wen Yu did so, Song Xi would smile foolishly at him, and his response would make the others envious.

Wen Yu would smile back dotingly.

These were his loving responses to his wife.

Wang Jilian and her daughter saw all this.

They never believed that Wen Yu loved Song Xi, but now they were so lovely at the moment. Hence, they could only believe in what they saw.

After dinner, Father Song pulled Song Xi to the study. “Do you have to make yourself look so ugly?”

“Dad, what did I do?” Looking at the exasperated Father Song, Song Xi sighed helplessly.

What blinded him? Why did he give up on such a good woman and choose to be with an uncultured swine like Wang Jilian?

Just looked at Song Nan. Could he not know what they were scheming?

Song Xi had asked herself countless times. To her, Father Song was not an incompetent person. However, he was fooled by a woman. Perhaps not even a hero could resist the temptation of a pretty lady.

“Since you are married to Wen Yu, don’t get involved with Xie Ke anymore, understand?”

“I know, and you too. Don’t be so blind.” Song Xi said something interesting to her father before she left the study.

When she arrived downstairs, she noticed Wang Jilian trying to get close to Wen Yu.

When Song Xi saw Wang Jilian’s shameless look, she was fuming. “Little Yu…

“Are you done talking?”

“Yes!”

Song Xi nodded at Wen Yu. He then immediately stood up and went to the stairwell to welcome her.

At that time, Father Song had also gone downstairs. Song Xi turned to look at her father and said, “Dad, it’s time for me to do my internship. Can I do my internship at your company?”

Back then, Song Xi wanted to go to her father’s company, but Wang Jilian and Song Nan tried to stop her at all costs. She insisted on going to his company at the moment. No one could stop her from doing so.

“Yes, dear. Little Xi has to do her internship at your company now. It’s better to work at your company.”

Wang Jilian looked like a loving mother, but Song Xi did not accept her.

Father Song did not see through it. He was only thinking about Song Xi’s internship. Since Wen Yu was in front of him, he could not refuse her daughter’s request. Moreover, it was normal for his daughter to come to the company to do her internship, so Father Song agreed to let her work in his company.

Upon seeing this, Wang Jilian stepped forward and said, “Dear, why don’t you let Little Nan do her internship at your company too? Both of them can take care of each other.”

“Yes, dad. We can take care of each other,” Song Nan answered as if she was afraid that Father Song would refuse her.

Father Song did not want to refuse her. Since they wanted to do their internships at his company, how could he reject them? He could only nod and say, “Okay.”

Upon seeing everything was going as planned, Song Nan did not forget to smile wickedly at Song Xi. However, she did not know that this was part of Song Xi’s plan too..
