“Let me finish.” Song Zishan put down her chopsticks, her face full of determination. She continued, “I know this is your family’s private matter. I shouldn’t have made such an unreasonable request. However, my father’s legs were crippled and his life was ruined by Su Xuewen’s hands. My family and Su Xuewen’s family are irreconcilable. However, my grandfather has also been friends with Grandpa Zhou and Grandpa Xu for many years. After so many years of friendship, could it be that those years of friendship can’t compare to
Su Xuewen?”
These words were serious.
Even Xu Pei came out of the study and stood in the living room.
“Do you know what kind of life my father is living?” Song Zishan’s eyes were slightly moist. She continued, “Father and Uncle Xu have been very close since they were young. Even if we don’t look at anything else but the friendship between them, please let my father live, Uncle Xu and Aunt Zhou. If he knew…
If she knew, she would definitely be very sad.”
Xu Pei sighed, knowing that Song Zishan was not lying.
If the Song family knew that he had accepted Su Xuewen’s daughter as his goddaughter, they would not even hold a grand banquet. Just knowing the news would make him go crazy.
That person had been overbearing since he was young, not to mention that Su Xuewen was the main culprit who had crippled him.
The news was too sudden. Xu Pei and Zhou Yan were both in a dilemma. It was impossible not to show some respect to the Song family, but to show respect to the Xu family would be to offend Su Wen’s family and her nephew, Zhou Hengyang.
Besides, if the banquet was canceled at the last minute, how humiliated would Xu Pei be?
Xu Pei’s elegant face was covered with a layer of frost, and there was a hint of scrutiny in his eyes as he looked at Song Zishan. As expected of Song Jiaming’s daughter, she was indeed domineering.
“That won’t do.” Zhou Yan suppressed the anger in her heart. “If you had told me earlier, I would have given the Song family some respect and halted it. However, I’ve already acknowledged my goddaughter. I, Zhou Yan, can’t afford to be embarrassed if you ask me to sneak around.”
Zhou Yan was really on fire.
She had long guessed that Song Zishan had come with ill intentions, but she did not expect her to really ask for an exorbitant price.
“Auntie, please calm down first.” Song Zishan said calmly, “I’m not trying to make things difficult for you. Besides, I can tell that you didn’t know that they were Su Xuewen’s daughters at all. You’re a victim like my father. It’s just that Su Wen and her sisters used you to sow discord between our families.”
This sentence was so powerful that it was like a thorn that stabbed into the heart of a person. She planted a fuse between Zhou Yan and Su Wen.
It would inadvertently sow discord between the two sides.
Zhou Yan smiled bitterly. Whether she denied it or admitted it, it was inappropriate. She had never been so passive in all these years. What made her feel humiliated the most was that Song Zishan was still a junior. It was simply embarrassing.
“It’s impossible to cancel tomorrow’s banquet.” Zhou Yan could only say firmly, “You want me to show your family some respect, but did your family show me any respect? Don’t treat me like a fool. Did your family really just find out
about the news? What are you doing? Do you really think I, Zhou Yan, am a pushover that you can pinch as you please?”
Look at her bad temper. She was really going to die of anger.
Regardless of whether Su Wen did it on purpose or not, Song Zishan must have done it on purpose.
“Aunt Zhou, please don’t be angry. I really didn’t mean it that way.” Song Zishan tried to curry favor and apologize. She was extremely polite and people couldn’t find any fault, but the ruthlessness in her words was extremely vicious.
She had made two preparations before she came.
If Zhou Hengyang protected her tightly, she would expose Su Xuewen’s identity at the banquet and embarrass the Su family..
