Chapter 656 The Lu Family and the Song Family’s Marriage
After Xiao Hong told Song Yunxuan that Lu Feng asked her out, Song Yunxuan decided to keep the appointment.
So she went straight to that appointed restaurant after work.
Mei Qi didn’t follow Song Yunxuan this time.
Instead, it was Xiao Hong who followed her to the restaurant.
Lu Feng arrived a lot earlier than Song Yunxuan.
So when Song Yunxuan arrived, she saw that Lu Feng had already been sitting in a good position and waiting for her.
Seeing Song Yunxuan coming his way, Lu Feng smiled gently and motioned Song Yunxuan to sit opposite him.
Song Yunxuan sat down opposite Lu Feng, and Xiao Hong was standing beside Song Yunxuan.
Xiao Hong drew Lu Feng’s attention.
Lu Feng smiled, saying a bit ironically, “Are you afraid of me or something, Miss Song? Why do you bring an assistant every time you meet me?”
“I can’t remember everything, so there she is.”
Song Yunxuan answered evenly.
Lu Feng smiled, saying to Song Yunxuan suggestively, “Yunxuan, we’ll soon be husband and wife. Does your assistant have to listen to our pillow talk?”
Being teased by Lu Feng, Song Yunxuan slightly raised her head and took a look at Xiao Hong standing beside her.
Xiao Hong didn’t appear embarrassed at all. Instead, she was composed.
Lu Feng looked at Song Yunxuan smilingly.
Song Yunxuan sighed softly, saying to Xiao Hong, “Editor Xiao, I can be on my own.”
Hearing that, Xiao Hong nodded and excused herself from the table.
When Xiao Hong left, Lu Feng said cheerily, “Another good assistant.”
Lu Feng said Xiao Hong was good because she didn’t appear embarrassed at all when being teased by Lu Feng.
It was said that those who were of driving ambition should always keep a straight face. Even if they had mixed feelings, they should not show them.
But as Song Yunxuan’s assistant, Xiao Hong didn’t need to do anything of great importance or be a hard one to read.
But it would be good if she could do that.
Song Yunxuan put her trust in Xiao Hong. Hearing Lu Feng’s words, she nodded, replying, “Having such an assistant makes me relieved.”
“I’m also relieved as my fiancée has such a nice assistant.”
Lu Feng said softly.
But Song Yunxuan could see that Lu Feng was just play-acting.
Thus she gently rubbed her brows, saying, “There are no outsiders here, so there’s no need to play-act, right?”
Hearing that Song Yunxuan came straight to the point, Lu Feng couldn’t help chuckling, “You think I’m play-acting?”
“Mr. Lu, you know it.”
Song Yunxuan didn’t say much.
When Lu Feng sensed that Song Yunxuan was uninterested in play-acting, his face took on a set expression.
Then he smiled, saying, “Fine. If you don’t want to play-act, so be it. We have plenty of opportunities to show our love in Yuncheng anyway.”
However, Song Yunxuan was not a bit interested in that.
She just said to the waiter standing by, “Menu.”
The waiter immediately placed the menu in front of Song Yunxuan.
Then Song Yunxuan opened the menu, ignoring what Lu Feng was doing.
Song Yunxuan’s composure displeased Lu Feng to some extent.
But Song Yunxuan didn’t care about how Lu Feng felt.
She just ordered her food and asked Lu Feng, “Which concert would you like to attend?”
“Didn’t I let someone tell you the location and the number of the concert?”
“I forgot it.”
Song Yunxuan’s offhand manner almost made Lu Feng furious.
Lu Feng frowned with displeasure, saying, “Song Yunxuan, aren’t you afraid that your family will be in trouble if you enrage me?”
“The Song Family always tries to survive crises.” Song Yunxuan smiled, adding, “You know it.”
Lu Feng replied with a smile, “Actually, you are the one who always tries to survive crises, right?”
Song Yunxuan leaned her back on the chair, saying to Lu Feng, “You may put it that way.”
Indeed, Song Yunxuan had always been trying to survive crises.
When Song Yunxuan first came to Yuncheng from Qingcheng Town, she was nobody in that formidable Song Family.
Both her elder brother and elder sister sidelined her. Even her father showed no hope or care for her.
If Gu Changge hadn’t become the youngest daughter of the Song Family, the real youngest daughter might have probably died within half a year.
Song Yunxuan smiled briefly and looked at Lu Feng, saying, “Isn’t my ability to turn the tide that you value?”
Seeing that Song Yunxuan read his mind, Lu Feng remained silent for a moment and then smiled.
Indeed, this was something Lu Feng saw in Song Yunxuan.
Lu Feng wanted such a dominant woman to fight alongside.
Fighting alongside such a partner could let Lu Feng have no worries behind.
Seeing that Lu Feng smiled, Song Yunxuan knew he understood what she meant.
So she said, “Mr. Lu, we’ll work well together, so don’t do anything meaningless.”
Lu Feng knew that the meaningless thing Song Yunxuan referred to was their public display of affection in Yuncheng.
So he asked her with a smile, “Why? Are you afraid that the Chu Family may have a problem with that?”
Song Yunxuan didn’t deny it, replying, “Yes.”
“You admit it?” Lu Feng felt somewhat surprised.
Lu Feng thought Song Yunxuan would try to cover up what she really thought.
But out of his expectation, Song Yunxuan admitted it crisply without any hesitation.
Song Yunxuan said, “The child in my belly belongs to the Chu Family. The Chu Family is already…”
Just at that moment, she thought of Chu Mochen’s death, which made her wretched.
Song Yunxuan paused for a moment and then continued, “Chu Mochen’s gone, and the Chu Family will doubt me. I don’t want our rumors to go too far, which will not benefit my kid.”
There were many rumors among the big and powerful families in Yuncheng.
And Song Yunxuan was pregnant with Chu Mochen’s child. She would protect him well and bring him into the world.
Not only would Song Yunxuan bring the kid into the world, but she would also let him have a clean origin.
She would let him be Chu Mochen’s legitimate son.
Lu Feng didn’t quite understand what Song Yunxuan meant, so he frowned, asking, “You want the kid to be Chu Mochen’s legitimate eldest son?”
“Problem?” Song Yunxuan asked with a smile.
Lu Feng slightly frowned, replying, “You can hardly make it.”
“Why?”
“If you hadn’t agreed to marry me, you would still have been Chu Mochen’s widow. But now we’ve engaged, and the whole Yuncheng know about it. Even if you bring the child into the world, it will happen after our engagement. How could you let him, a child born after our engagement, be Chu Mochen’s legitimate eldest son?”
Lu Feng didn’t understand what Song Yunxuan planned to do.
But Song Yunxuan didn’t think it was hard. She said, “Isn’t it easy? We just need to terminate our engagement before the child is born.”
As long as Song Yunxuan dissociated herself from Lu Feng, it would be easy for her to explain the child’s identity.
Besides, her explanation would be credible.
Lu Feng frowned, saying, “Song Yunxuan, you are going to divorce me right after our marriage. It appears that you are just making use of me.”
“Actually, we both make use of each other. Why bother laying it bare?”
Song Yunxuan said blandly.
Lu Feng narrowed his eyes, feeling that he could not see through the woman in front of him.
Judging from Song Yunxuan’s age, she should have been an innocent young girl instead of someone who had gone through all kinds of vicissitudes. However, her views on certain things were so penetrating that even Lu Feng, who had been through a lot, couldn’t compare with her.
He knitted his brows.
Seeing that Lu Feng frowned, Song Yunxuan smiled briefly, asking, “You think I’m wrong, Mr. Lu?”
Lu Feng remained silent for a moment, replying, “No, you are right.”
Song Yunxuan was totally right.
Lu Feng and Song Yunxuan were making use of each other, so it would be OK if Song Yunxuan wanted to divorce him after they got married.
Hearing Lu Feng’s words, Song Yunxuan smiled, replying, “Since you think I’m right, let’s go on with our dinner and then go to the concert.”
Lu Feng nodded.
Then they started to have dinner.
Song Yunxuan and Lu Feng both finished their dinner fast.
But Song Yunxuan’s words before the dinner knocked Lu Feng’s socks off and impressed him a lot.
And Song Yunxuan’s appearance and voice even stuck in Lu Feng’s mind when he got home.
However, Song Yunxuan didn’t think much about Lu Feng when she returned home.
Instead, she paid close attention to the Shao Family’s movements.
“The Shao Family has been keeping their eyes on Gu Changle.”
“Not the whole Shao Family. Actually, Shao Tianze is the only one that values Gu Changle.”
Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words on the phone, Mei Qi nodded, replying, “You can put it that way, Manager Song.”
Song Yunxuan smiled gently, “I know. I can understand how much Shao Tianze values Gu Changle.”
Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Mei Qi didn’t ask any further questions.
He knew that Song Yunxuan had too many secrets.
And Song Yunxuan wouldn’t easily tell anyone the secrets.
Even if Mei Qi questioned closely, he would not get any satisfactory answers.
Song Yunxuan smiled, continuing, “I wonder if Shao Tianze still loves Gu Changle as always now that she becomes like this.”
Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Mei Qi said, “I’ve heard that Shao Tianze not only cares about Gu Changle, but he also cares a lot about his youngest daughter.”
“You mean Miaomiao?”
Song Yunxuan called out her daughter’s name.
She felt somewhat worried.
Mei Qi nodded, saying, “Yes. I heard that Shao Tianze had shifted his attention from Gu Changle to Gu Miaomiao after Gu Yi was sent to Harbor City, which annoyed Gu Changle a lot.”
Song Yunxuan frowned. She didn’t know why Shao Tianze would shift his attention to Miaomiao.
