Xia Ning blushed instantly at what was said, and said awkwardly:
"Who's in a rush to get married? We've barely started, there's no time to discuss that. I was talking about going to my house. Don't you already know that?"
Zhong Wanwan: How would she know about six cakes? No, wait, she knows now!
Hehe, she's quick-witted.
Zhong Wanwan now understood the conflict between the two. She guessed that Xia Ning asked Song Bai to go home with her, but Song Bai refused, and Xia Ning misunderstood that Song Bai didn't want to get married.
Based on Zhong Wanwan's understanding of Zhong Songbai, it's absolutely impossible for her not to want to get married.
Songbai is a proud person, and with his current status and family situation, how could he possibly have the face to go to the Xia family?
Although the farm workers said he was with Xia Ning for personal gain, they were both educated youth sent to the countryside, so there wasn't much difference between them, and they supported each other.
But things were different when they went to the Xia family; Zhong Songbai's current identity was fake.
Yes, no one would know unless they investigated further, but the Xia family only has one daughter, Xia Ning, so how could they not investigate?
That Director Li, who only got his position so he could have something going on with her, how could he be so careful? Yet someone with ulterior motives found out as soon as they investigated.
People will definitely think of Zhong Songbai. They'll assume he sought out Xia Ning for personal gain and to get the Xia family to protect him.
To put it bluntly, it's a conspiracy theory; everyone would assume it was a trap set by Xia's political enemies to get Zhong Songbai close to Xia Ning.
Zhong Songbai was overthinking things, and it must be because of these reasons that he couldn't go to Xia Ning's house.
She wanted to tell Xia Ning everything last time, but because Xia Ning understood her, the matter was over.
Zhong Wanwan gave Xia Ning a complicated look. It seemed that in order to avoid any misunderstandings between them, she needed to clarify their sibling relationship with Xia Ning.
Zhong Wanwan had complete faith in Xia Ning's character, which had been tested several times.
Zhong Wanwan got up and closed the door, then sat down opposite Xia Ning and said seriously:
"Xia Ning, there's something I need to make clear to you. Regardless of what happens between you and Song Bai in the future, I hope you can keep this a secret from us three siblings!"
Xia Ning originally wanted to smile at Zhong Wanwan to make her less serious, but seeing the earnestness in Zhong Wanwan's eyes, she nodded and solemnly said:
"Don't worry, even if Zhong Songbai and I aren't a good match, we'll still be best friends. You told me you trust me, so I'll never tell anyone!"
Let alone her good friend Zhong Wanwan's matter, even if it were someone she didn't know well, even someone like Tang Zixuan who had broken ties with her, she wouldn't maliciously spread it to others if they said it to her.
Zhong Wanwan recounted in detail:
“My name matches Songbai’s, and Xiaobaiyang’s name do match, and we are indeed from Jincheng. But our father, Zhong Muyang, was able to study abroad at his own expense during those turbulent times. You can probably guess what our family situation is like!”
Xia Ning was startled and subconsciously looked at Zhong Wanwan, who nodded at her.
Xia Ning's mind was in turmoil. She had suspected before that Zhong Wanwan and her two siblings' father was Grandpa Wu's junior apprentice, and she knew what Grandpa Wu's identity was.
However, at the time, she thought that the three siblings were probably from a moderately wealthy family, and that at most, some manipulation had been done when their social status was determined. She never imagined that their identities were fake.
The identities are fake? If it really is what she thinks, then the Zhong family should have been struggling for years. How could they possibly have changed their identities? Who would have the guts to change the identities of the three of them?
Xia Ning felt a pang of sadness. So who were these three people? Who sent them to get close to her?
Even if she couldn't bear to part with her sisterhood or her relationship with Zhong Songbai, she would never betray her family or her country.
Thinking of her impending break with Zhong Wanwan, Xia Ning closed her eyes and spoke with difficulty:
"Do you belong to Taiwan or the Little Notebook? Does Little Poplar know about this? If Little Poplar is unaware, out of consideration for our past relationship, I'm willing to help you clear Little Poplar's name."
"However, I hope you and Zhong Songbai can confess and be lenient. I'll take you to turn yourselves in!"
