Chapter 17: Enemies Meet Again on a Narrow Road
"What? You said Shi Jing is missing? And that rebellious girl is missing too?"
The roar of Song's father was heard in the huge courtyard.
His hands holding the microphone were shaking.
Song's mother cried with red eyes, muttering to herself, "How could this happen? Why is Shi Jing so stupid? Even if he doesn't like the girl from the Meng family, he doesn't have to elope with Yanyan!"
Song's father hung up the phone, his heart pounding with anger.
He never expected that his eldest son, whom he valued the most, would be so bold as to have an affair with his adopted daughter and even elope.
Now, he has no place to put his old face.
Song Shiyu, who was standing by, clapped his hands and cheered, "Big brother is so brave, brave enough to pursue love. How despicable is that bumpkin from the Meng family? He has been with you for so long, but he still can't catch your eye."
Song Shixuan quickly pulled his sleeve, looking at his father's gloomy face and corrected his brother, "Don't talk nonsense, didn't you and I see her when we were young? She was pretty, just a little darker, and she spoke with a country accent."
Father Song sat on the sofa with his lips twitching. What emerged in his mind was the scene when Meng Shuyue came to his house with a basket of country eggs and said goodbye to him politely before leaving for the countryside with his eldest son.
The little girl was pretty and charming, with glowing white skin and a sweet and soft voice, but these two grown-up boys actually said that she was black and spoke with an accent.
In his mind, he had long since decided that Meng Shuyue was his daughter-in-law.
Even if the eldest brother is blind, he doesn't believe that the second brother is also blind.
"Shi Xuan, your uncle and aunt like you to be their son-in-law, so you can go on a blind date with the girl from the Meng family this time."
Song's father made the final decision, and then took two movie tickets from the secretary behind him and handed them to Song Shixuan, saying solemnly: "You must believe in Dad. Dad's vision is not wrong. It would be a pity to miss such a good daughter. From now on, you are Dad's hope!"
After saying that, he patted his second son on the shoulder, turned around and went to work with renewed energy.
When Song's mother heard that her eldest son had eloped with a woman, she looked distraught. She no longer had the mood to care about who would take over the marriage with the Meng family. She went back to her room alone, crying.
Song Shixuan and Song Shiyu looked at each other and understood each other.
The two of them had long known that the Meng family had big appetites and wanted to choose Song Shixuan as their son-in-law.
So they decided to use someone else's trick!
Song Shiyu straightened his shiny hair, spread his hands and said, "Brother, don't worry, I will make that Meng Heihei fall hopelessly in love with me, and then refuse to marry you. Finally, I will abandon her without hesitation and avenge my elder brother and sister Yanyan, this pair of unfortunate lovers!"
Song Shixuan counted out ten brand new ten-dollar bills from his wallet and put them in his palm. He raised his eyebrows and said with a bit of reluctance, "You don't have to be so ruthless. Just let her take the initiative to find Dad and cancel the engagement with our family. Don't force her to death."
"Second brother, you are just soft-hearted. If you don't give this woman a good beating, she will definitely become an obstacle between you and your library muse. You don't want to elope like your eldest brother, do you?"
Song Shixuan thought of the fairy he had caught a glimpse of in the library, and his face suddenly turned red again.
"Okay, if this works, I'll save some living expenses next month and give you a hundred!"
Song Shiyu smiled and nodded continuously.
Soon, the blind date time agreed upon by the two families arrived.
Song Shiyu picked a rose from the vase at home and went to the blind date location leisurely.
Before leaving, Song Shixuan was still behind him cheering him on.
In front of the state-owned hotel.
Song Shiyu was holding a red rose, wearing a white shirt and a black jacket, and his straight black trousers made his long legs look even longer.
He was leaning lazily against the lamppost in front of the door, with a perfect smirk on the corner of his lips. Looking from the side, his superior facial lines were so striking that no woman could escape his beauty.
Just as he was thinking proudly, he turned his head and saw a girl with skin a few shades lighter than black coal balls, wearing a white dress with floral patterns walking towards him. In her hand was the certificate of their agreed meeting, a copy of "Compendium of Materia Medica".
Song Shiyu widened his charming peach blossom eyes until his eyeballs almost popped out.
This girl from the Meng family was actually the one who called him a woman's black coal bean sprout at the door of the library!
The smile on his face froze completely, and he even forgot to control his facial expression.
When Meng Shuyue saw the face of a stranger holding a rose at the door, she also turned away with a look of disgust.
She woke up in a daze early in the morning and her mother asked her to braid her hair and choose clothes for her.
Originally, she was not opposed to the blind date, but when she heard that it was a blind date with the second son of the Song family, her face was full of resistance.
She had long wanted to have nothing to do with the Song family.
Entering the Song family again, does she think that her death in her previous life was not tragic enough?
But he couldn't bear his mother's nagging. After all, he had already promised her, so he had no choice but to go ahead and agree to come to the appointment.
However, she still refused her mother's move to put whitening powder on her face.
After all, if the blind date partner only cares about appearance and not soul compatibility, then why be together?
Now, Meng Shuyue was even more glad that she did not put on makeup in an attempt to scare away the second son of the Song family.
She couldn't understand how he could be the good boy in the eyes of his parents, considering the way he had an argument with her in front of the library and belittled the appearance of female compatriots.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up.
Didn’t this guy call the man next to him “brother” at that time?
Then how could he be the second son of the Song family?
Meng Shuyue immediately guessed the identity of this younger brother-like blind date. It must be the uneducated youngest son of the Song family.
So she looked at him with even more contempt.
It took Song Shiyu a long time to come to terms with the fact that enemies often meet on a narrow road.
But since he had promised his second brother, he was determined to help him solve his problems.
After all, he has had many girlfriends, so he doesn't care about having one more black bean sprout.
He walked up to her with a polite and gentlemanly look, and said apologetically, "Miss, it turns out to be you. You are the beautiful Meng. It was all a misunderstanding last time. I will treat you to a meal and apologize to you, okay?"
"Okay, then you treat me to a meal, but I have to make sure I am well fed."
Meng Shuyue was not polite either. After all, no one can resist delicious food.
She must make the Song family who deceived her pay a heavy price!
Song Shiyu lifted the loose hair on his forehead, and his peach blossom eyes smiled into a crescent shape again.
This greedy little girl will definitely fall deeply in love with him after eating three meals with him.
But within half an hour, he couldn't laugh anymore.
There are only two of them, but they can fill the table with delicious dishes!
Braised pork with preserved vegetables, braised spareribs, sweet and sour fish, stewed pig's feet with taro...
There are more than a dozen dishes, and this girl orders whatever is expensive.
He roughly calculated that the meal would cost forty dollars.
If he wants to treat her to a few more meals, how can a hundred yuan be enough? Wouldn't it be a waste of money?
Seeing the girl's small mouth chewing slowly as she swallowed dish after dish, her lips greasy and red from eating, he began to sweat on his forehead.
He pursed his lips, rolled up his sleeves and reached for the pig's trotter with his chopsticks.
But in the next second, the shiny pig's trotter would be snatched away like teleportation and fall into the greasy mouth of the greedy girl opposite.
He stretched out his chopsticks towards the fish with half of the meat left. The next second, the pair of chopsticks peeled off all the fish meat, leaving only a complete fish skeleton.
Song Shiyu's hand holding the chopsticks froze in mid-air.
He watched helplessly as the dishes gradually disappeared, and finally, he put down his chopsticks helplessly, holding his wallet.
When walking out of the state-owned restaurant, Meng Shuyue touched his round belly and burped.
But Song Shiyu was shaking and almost falling, and it was unclear whether it was because of hunger or anger.
But he still leaned against the wall, cornering the woman with the aroma of meat in her mouth, and said with a wicked smile, "How about it, Sister Shuyue, are you satisfied with the sincerity of my apology?"
