"Little girl, you haven't come to see me for two weeks." Old Master Tang pretended to be angry and spoke.
Song Zhixing felt guilty. Tang Yu hadn't asked her to go recently, and she didn't know if she was still suitable to be there. She was the only one who was not a member of the Tang family.
"Come over for dinner tonight, don't refuse Grandpa, I'll have the driver pick you up at the school gate." Grandpa Tang's tone was the same as Tang Yu's, not allowing for arguments. But in comparison, it was much gentler.
The tolerance he showed himself made Song Zhixing feel warm in his heart.
After class, she walked out of the school gate and the driver of the Tang family was already waiting at the door. The drive took about an hour and they arrived at the Tang family's house. There were several cars parked under the majestic white marble staircase. It seemed that everyone in the Tang family had arrived tonight.
Is Second Uncle here too
Song Zhixing gripped the straps of his schoolbag tightly and walked inside.
The Tang family's hall was full of people, chatting animatedly and making the place lively.
Song Zhixing went in, and the old man waved as soon as he saw her, "Xingxing, come here."
"Grandpa." Song Zhixing followed his words and sat down next to the old man, and called people one by one. Only Tang Lao Da and Tang Yu were not present, and the rest of the Tang family were there. Today, there was a very beautiful woman sitting next to Tang Yi. Song Zhixing knew her and called out, "Hello, auntie."
Mo Liangyan.
She is Tang Yi's fiancée.
Song Zhixing had always called him that before, and no one thought it was inappropriate. But when he called her that today, Mo Liangyan felt a little embarrassed. After a slight smile, she responded softly. She subconsciously looked at Tang Yi, and finally, she looked at Tang Song's face. Her eyes were complicated, and it was hard to tell what kind of emotion he was feeling.
Except for a few people involved, no one noticed these small details, especially Song Zhixing.
She was not thinking about this at all. She put down her schoolbag and walked around the hall casually. Her eyes would occasionally fall to the backyard and other rooms.
"Xingxing, what are you looking for?" Tang Fei suddenly asked. Originally, the elders were chatting enthusiastically, but Tang Fei's sudden voice made everyone turn their attention to Song Zhixing who was about to open the side hall door.
Tang Youyou smiled and said, "Xingxing is looking for the second brother, right?"
She was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer for a moment. She put her hand on the door handle and felt very uncomfortable.
"Looking for the second brother? He didn't come today." said the old man.
Song Zhixing met the eyes of the old man of the Tang family, and lowered his head in a guilty mood. Afraid that his thoughts would be seen through by these people, he licked his dry lower lip and said unconfidently: "I'm not looking for my second uncle, I'm just... just looking around."
It turns out that he didn't come...
The last time she left his office, he was about to go on a business trip. It's only been half a month now, and he might not be back yet.
Song Zhixing felt inexplicably depressed again and sat back among the crowd awkwardly.
Tang Youyou asked her, "I heard that you two had a fight? You've lost so much weight, isn't it because of this?"
"… No." Song Zhixing waved his hands in panic and quickly found an excuse, "I'm going to take an exam soon and I'm under a lot of pressure, so I lost weight."
"This second son is too rude. He actually dared to kick you out. I'll have to teach him a lesson later." The old man felt very angry when he thought of this. The little girl's parents were his lifesavers. No matter what the reason was, he couldn't treat her like this.
Song Zhixing was about to say something when he saw the servant trotting in and said, "Master, the second master is here."
As soon as these words were spoken, Song Zhixing's heart was in turmoil. She clearly said that she was not looking for him, but her gaze still fell uncontrollably towards the door.
Under the gaze of everyone, Tang Yu walked in slowly in a black suit.
"Grandpa." He walked in and greeted the old man first, taking off his suit and handing it to the servant. With the setting sun behind him, he had an air of being able to control the world. Everyone greeted him and called him "Second Brother", leaving Song Zhixing alone sitting there blankly, his heart aching and sour.
Because, his eyes swept across everyone's face, except... her, and he didn't stop for a moment. He just treated her as if she didn't exist, like air.
Song Zhixing let out a long sigh.
Everyone noticed something was wrong between the two of them, and the old man was the first to speak: "Why are you here? Didn't you say you were on a business trip and didn't have time?"
"I changed my schedule temporarily." Tang Yu said calmly. He hadn't been home for half a month, and hadn't seen a certain little woman for half a month. He didn't want to miss an occasion like today.
"You're back just in time." Tang Youyou glanced at Song Zhixing, "You weren't here just now, but Xingxing was looking for you. Right, Xingxing?"
As soon as these words fell, Song Zhixing was startled and suddenly raised her eyes. Tang Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at Song Zhixing. The two of them just met each other's eyes. He no longer ignored her like he did just now, and stared at her meaningfully, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Song Zhixing's heart started beating wildly when he looked at her.
She was afraid that Tang Youyou would notice something was wrong, so she didn't dare to say anything. Everyone in the Tang family had a keen sense of observation, so she didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
Tang Wei smiled and said, "Second brother, I can testify that Xiao Xingxing was indeed looking for you just now. However, I don't think she was looking for you for something. Instead, it seems more like she missed you very much."
As soon as these words fell, Tang Yu's gaze on Song Zhixing became deeper, even a little scorching. Does this little girl miss me? However, she looks a little rounder than last time, and her complexion is much better. It seems that Sister Li has made an indelible contribution.
Song Zhixing was embarrassed by Tang Wei's words, and her ears turned red. Coupled with Tang Yu's undisguised look, she panicked even more and said quickly: "No... I really have something to tell my second uncle."
Tang Yu didn't ask, but just waited for her to speak. Everyone turned their attention to her.
Song Zhixing pondered for a moment and looked at Tang Yu, "I... I have decided to go back to my grandfather after the exam."
This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone.
Tang Yu's already stern face suddenly turned a bit gloomy, making the whole scene as cold as if covered with a layer of frost. When he was about to get angry, everyone was afraid, and Song Zhixing was naturally a little timid. But now, the words have come to this point, she had to bite the bullet and continue: "Today the school asked me to fill in the application form, and I didn't fill in any school..."
"Have you thought it through?" Tang Yu finally spoke, his tone strong with every word he said.
Song Zhixing's throat seemed to be blocked. She just wanted to say a few simple words, "I've thought it through," but she just couldn't say them.
