Chapter 794 Alienate Ding Tong (2)
As Song Yunxuan had anticipated, Ding Tong and Shao Tianze made an elaborate plan before they sought revenge against Song Yunxuan.
Song Yunxuan and Lu Feng had set a date for their wedding.
They had spread the news all around Yuncheng on the eve of the wedding to let everybody know.
Soon after that, the news about Song Yunxuan and Lu Feng’s wedding reached every corner in Yuncheng.
One might find several saleswomen standing around and talking about this perfect match even when shopping in a mall.
Song Yunxuan felt bored in her house, so she decided to take a walk outside.
But she got to make sure no one would recognize her or see her walking around safe and sound.
So Mei Qi led the trackers away from the gate of the Song Family on purpose and then drove Song Yunxuan to the shopping mall in disguise.
Song Yunxuan wore an oversized down coat, a hat, and a scarf. Her belly was getting bigger day by day, but the coat hid it perfectly.
So it was not easy to know she was pregnant.
Song Yunxuan wandered around several clothing stores before she went to the cosmetics department.
The saleswoman recommended skincare products for Song Yunxuan warmly.
But Song Yunxuan’s face was half-covered by her scarf. Even the saleswoman was curious about her appearance.
But each time the saleswoman nearly saw Song Yunxuan’s face, Mei Qi would block her vision suddenly.
“We’d better go home, my lady,” Mei Qi said to Song Yunxuan.
Song Yunxuan was looking at the essential oil on the shelf. Hearing that, she turned slightly to Mei Qi and said, “But we’ve only been out for a while.”
“We had better go back earlier. I’m afraid Master will be worried about you.”
Mei Qi had been a loyal assistant when he worked in the Song Family.
When they were outside, he was still accustomed to protecting Song Yunxuan.
Hearing what Mei Qi said, Song Yunxuan nodded slightly, saying in displeasure, “Fine. We’ll go home.”
Song Yunxuan rose and went out with Mei Qi.
At the gate of the mall, they saw a fancy car parking in front of them.
The car’s owner had good taste.
The car he had chosen had a famous name and high performance, and those women surrounding him were super classy.
Instead of walking out, Song Yunxuan stood at the gate and looked at the woman getting out of the car.
A woman wore a fox fur coat and had long white jade legs. Mei Qi was even attracted by them and smiled unwittingly when that woman got out of the car.
After the woman got out of the car, Song Yunxuan turned to Mei Qi, asking, “Is that your type, Assistant Mei?”
“Yep. She’s my type, indeed, but women like her would never like me.”
Mei Qi smiled.
“Well, not necessarily.”
“Look at the man she’s coming to.”
Hearing what Mei Qi said,
Song Yunxuan looked at the man she headed to.
That man stood with his one side facing Song Yunxuan and Mei Qi
Strangely, the man was wearing a pair of elegant and delicately framed glasses, and he always covered his face with a white handkerchief when he spoke.
It seemed that he was quite ill. He kept coughing so that he could barely finish a sentence.
But Song Yunxuan felt that his profile was very familiar.
Her fingers shuddered, and her eyes dilated.
Song Yunxuan had an almost uncontrollable impulse to dash out of the gate.
Next to her, Mei Qi grabbed her by the arm with sudden violence, saying, “Manager Song.”
When Mei Qi seized her, she frowned, tried to shake off his hand, and said, “I got to see that man.”
“That’s not him.”
Mei Qi reminded Song Yunxuan.
A frown appeared on Song Yunxuan’s face. She did not believe what he said and was on the point of rushing to that man.
“Please calm down, Manager Song.”
Mei Qi moved in front of Song Yunxuan.
Song Yunxuan raised her eyebrows and tried to wrench her arm from his fingers. “Get off me,” she said with a grim face.
But for Song Yunxuan, Mei Qi was too strong to be pushed away.
Nevertheless, Mei Qi’s heart quivered after seeing the extremely grave look in Song Yunxuan’s eyes.
“Let go,” she said softly, staring at Mei Qi.
Mei Qi hesitated for a moment, frowned, and then moved aside.
Song Yunxuan rushed out right after Mei Qi stepped aside.
Unfortunately, the man walked into a business club with the woman he met.
It was a private club that only senior members could enter.
Song Yunxuan could enter this club. But if she revealed herself, it might expose everything they had been hiding.
It might also give Ding Tong a better chance to take revenge on Song Yunxuan.
It could be quite dangerous to expose her identity here.
It would cause more harm than good.
Frowning and slitting her eyes, Song Yunxuan stopped in front of the club, staring at the closed glass door.
Seeing that Song Yunxuan stopped by herself, Mei Qi came to her, asking, “Manager Song?”
“Is there any possibility that Chu Mochen didn’t die at all?”
Song Yunxuan asked Mei Qi.
Mei Qi said sympathetically, “You think too much, Manager Song.”
Song Yunxuan turned to Mei Qi and said, “I don’t believe Chu Mochen was that easy to die.”
“Seriously, Manager Song, I believe you are overthinking this,” Mei Qi insisted.
“He didn’t die, did he?”
Song Yunxuan caught Mei Qi by the arm, trying to get an answer from him.
For a moment, Mei Qi’s eyes glinted. He said to Song Yunxuan, “Please pay attention to your behavior, Manager Song. We’re in a public place.”
Song Yunxuan inhaled, saying, “No, that’s not true.”
Mei Qi looked at Song Yunxuan, frowning.
Song Yunxuan turned back and pulled her scarf up to cover her face, repeating, “I know Chu Mochen isn’t dead.”
“It must be a hallucination, Manager Song. You miss Childe Chu too much.”
“Hallucination?” Song Yunxuan repeated, and then she said, “No, people like me never hallucinate. If I think that’s him, that’s him. If I think he’s not dead, he must be alive.”
Mei Qi knew how stubborn Song Yunxuan could be, especially after her daughter’s death. Thus, it was quite normal to have a sense of dependency and expectation when she saw a man who looked just like Chu Mochen.
“I can find out his identity if you want, Manager Song.”
Song Yunxuan compressed her lips, saying, “I’ll find out myself.”
“Don’t you believe me?”
Mei Qi was always there for Song Yunxuan and did everything she ever wanted for years.
Now Song Yunxuan should reject his help, which was apparently a sign of distrust.
Song Yunxuan knew that her words would make Mei Qi think too much, so she said, “Don’t think it more. I don’t want you to identify him because I know it’s not easy. You might not find out anything.”
“But you just met him once, Manager Song. How could you know it’s difficult to identify him?”
Mei Qi asked Song Yunxuan.
Song Yunxuan smiled, saying, “My sixth sense told me that.”
“Your sixth sense?”
Mei Qi was not very convinced by her sixth sense.
But Song Yunxuan always had the right instinct, and she had never guessed wrong.
At least, he should not doubt her, even if he was not really convinced by her guessing.
Song Yunxuan had no fewer experiences than him, after all.
“Let’s go home.”
She wanted to burst into the club and see what exactly the man looked like.
But she understood that the last thing she should do at this critical point was to be impulsive.
Recklessness could ruin everything.
She compressed her lips and turned to Mei Qi, saying, “Let’s go.”
Seeing that Song Yunxuan would like to go back, Mei Qi felt relieved.
But they looked up at the building spontaneously when leaving the club.
They wanted to see the man standing behind the glass window of the club.
But they saw nothing.
They could merely think about it.
They left the business club.
On the second floor, that man, covering half of his face with a handkerchief, stood in front of the window made of special glass.
The man had been staring at Song Yunxuan.
Next to him, the woman stood there. Meekly, she handed him a glass of warm water. “Please have some water, sir,” she said.
He took the glass but did not drink immediately. He pondered for a while, slitting his eyes. And then he raised the glass to his mouth.
Song Yunxuan got an instinct that Chu Mochen was still alive.
And the feeling was getting stronger day by day.
She felt restless, but still, she was expecting something.
If Chu Mochen was still alive, why didn’t he come back to Yuncheng to find her?
Likewise, if he was truly dead,
Where was his body?
Strangest of all, she had the feeling that Chu Mochen was watching at her somewhere near.
The feeling kept tormenting her, but it also brought her hope.
Time elapsed, over and over. The more she expected, the more she felt empty.
And the more disappointed she became.
Mei Qi told her it was a hallucination caused by her longing.
But she didn’t think so.
She could feel that Chu Mochen was alive, only he was avoiding her.
Meanwhile, he was watching her somewhere.
But he was always much of a jealousy type.
How could he not show up since Lu Feng was to marry her and the wedding day was nearer?
“Mei Qi.”
“Yes?”
Hearing Song Yunxuan called his name,
Mei Qi answered her.
“Don’t you think it’s some kind of hide-and-seek he’s playing with me?” Song Yunxuan asked.
Hearing her question, Mei Qi compressed his lips, saying, “I do believe you need to take some rest, Manager Song.”
Song Yunxuan refused to listen to any of this. She mumbled to herself, “I know he must be playing with me. He wanted to see my next move, or he wouldn’t have left me for so long. He would’ve come to me in the first place.”
Song Yunxuan said.
Mei Qi frowned worriedly, saying, “Manager Song?”
“Don’t worry. I’m not mad.”
