Chapter 80
"Tsk tsk tsk, big brother and big sister, if you had just come in and asked the child a few more questions, it wouldn't have ended up like this."
"Yes, yes. Look at how miserable this kid looks. No wonder he felt like he had thorns all over his body just now."
"If your son-in-law wants to enter the international arena, let him hone his acting skills. We all know that his award-winning actor title is of little value."
The relatives spoke with sarcasm, but their expressions showed some joy.
After all, ever since Song Yun and Shi Xuanzhu got married, relatives have often been subjected to mental attacks from Song's father and Ye's mother during gatherings.
Either their son-in-law bought a gold bracelet for Ye's mother, or their son-in-law brought their family over when he was filming and played there for a long time.
If that were the case, it would be fine, but the key is that Song's father and Ye's mother like to pull down others. It's basically a routine. After showing off their own affairs, they randomly pick a family's child or their partner to ridicule them.
Now, every time there is a family gathering, as long as Song's father and Ye's mother are present, the family will definitely have a quarrel when they return home.
For this family gathering, they originally wanted to get back all their old ties. After all, Ye Wangxing had to be taken care of by his brother when he came back from abroad, which was not a good situation no matter how you looked at it.
But when they saw the Rolls-Royce Phantom, they had a bad feeling.
But seeing that the child was indeed a bit pitiful, they suppressed the thought.
but……
I didn’t expect that this kid was so thoughtful. He actually took action himself and used reasons that they couldn’t refute.
This now puts the accusations made by their relatives on the moral high ground.
Thinking of this, the relatives' eyes became softer when they looked at Ye Wangxing.
Song's father and Ye's mother also looked extremely embarrassed.
Father Song coughed lightly first, intending to say a few soft words to ease the situation. However, Ye Wangxing ignored him and just stood up and said.
"My assistant called and I need to go out for a while. You guys eat slowly."
After saying that, the handsome young man ignored Song's father and Ye's mother, walked into the small courtyard outside the villa, and started making a phone call, leaving the room full of embarrassment.
Shi Xuanzhu, who was the source of the incident, was also a little embarrassed. Fortunately, he was thick-skinned and managed to smooth over the matter.
The relatives did not take advantage of the situation. On the contrary, they were quite friendly to Shi Xuanzhu. After all, he was a big movie star.
Sometimes when they want an autograph, they have to ask this movie actor for help.
The matter was largely covered up, but when Shi Xuanzhu looked at Ye Wangxing outside the door, the originally gentle expression on his face turned sinister.
Song Yun didn't see it. He was still thinking about Ye Wangxing's lost expression.
"It seems that Ye Wangxing really loves her husband, otherwise she wouldn't miss him so much even after he passed away for half a year."
He sighed as he thought about it, and became even more angry at the red-haired guy who was talking nonsense, and it showed in his expression.
At this time, the young man finally came back from outside the door after finishing his phone call. Looking at Song Yun with a gritting teeth look, he asked with some doubts on his face.
"Brother, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with my parents again?"
When Song Yun heard what her brother said, she quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, no, that's not true. Mom and Dad are probably reflecting on themselves right now."
However, as soon as Song Yun said this, she heard the young man sneer.
Song Yun also looked embarrassed. He also knew what kind of people his parents were. He coughed lightly and quickly changed the subject.
Looking at the relatives who had already scattered, he quietly approached Ye Wangxing and asked.
"Ahem, if you don't mind, you can tell me about your husband. Don't keep everything to yourself. Don't worry, I will keep it a secret."
Song Yun said this sincerely.
After all, if you keep everything inside and have no one to talk to, you will get sick.
Besides, I am not like my parents, who would comment on what others do wrong when they are pouring out their hearts.
The young man looked at the serious expression on his brother's face, was silent for a moment, and then spoke.
"It's okay. There's no need to keep this a secret. So Wang Qi, you can come out from behind the sofa."
My little cousin who was leaning on the sofa and playing with her phone: …
"Hey, brother, is this really something I can listen to?"
She chuckled awkwardly - she didn't look very smart at all.
The young man would not argue with his little cousin. He nodded, and the little cousin naturally sat down next to the young man.
"After all, it's not a big deal. It can also broaden your experience so that you won't be cheated by men in the future."
The young man glanced at his little cousin before telling her about the experience.
Song Yun felt distressed because of her brother's experience when he just ran away from home, while her little cousin listened with great interest, but there was no trace of longing in her eyes, only fear.
"…Anyway, after that upgrade, I got in touch with my husband, and we found out that we had the same interests and values, so we got married, and he was really good to me."
When the young woman said this, there was a slight smile on her lips, and she was counting her husband's merits.
"He's handsome, generous, and has a strong personality, but he's reasonable. Sometimes when I want to invest in something, he gives me money without even looking at the plan."
"It sounds like it was a really wonderful time."
The little cousin said with some envy.
"Yes, he even took me to school and helped me expand my knowledge. He also helped me get an admission letter from university - although now I can only take classes remotely."
The young man said with a faint smile on his face.
"Oh, why? Can't we go back?" the little cousin asked curiously, but as soon as she asked the question, she remembered what happened to her cousin.
She pointed carefully at her phone, and the young man nodded.
"——Damn red hair."
My little cousin squeezed out these words from between her teeth. For all Chinese students, dropping out is something that is totally unacceptable, especially when they have received an admission letter from a university but are unable to attend due to force majeure.
Fortunately, remote teaching is still possible, otherwise she felt that she would have broken her teeth.
The young man did not think about these things in detail. He just talked about their daily life together and let the little cousin and Su Yun know that the man had silver hair and blue eyes.
"…very beautiful, like Elsa, so when it snows, I even sing Letitgo to him on purpose."
The young man chuckled when he said this. He was clearly talking about something happy, but his eyes were as fragile as cut glass.
Then the young man's tone took a sharp turn for the worse, and the smile on his face disappeared.
"...So when the news came last year, I couldn't believe it."
"How come someone who gave me a good morning kiss in the morning turned into a pile of rotten meat at noon?"
The originally calm eyes now looked like two deep dry wells. The pupils shrank rapidly and became extremely dark, like a lonely boat being dragged into endless darkness, dazed and at a loss.
The dense eyelashes trembled slightly, like the wings of a butterfly or the leaves shaking gently in the wind.
It's extremely pitiful.
"Second brother..."
The little cousin felt a little guilty. She shouldn't have brought up this topic and made her cousin sad.
But she didn't expect that her cousin had such a deep relationship with his husband.
But think about it, a perfect lover died at his most beautiful moment. Just think about it and you will know that it is like the existence of white moonlight.
My cousin was almost overwhelmed by guilt. She would wake up in the middle of the night and slap herself, cursing herself.
"Ahem, let's not talk about sad things. By the way, you are back home now, what are your plans for the future?"
The young man wiped the corners of his eyes gently and spoke in a steady voice.
"I've already explained this before. I'm afraid I'll have to stay at your house tonight. The nearby five-star hotel is a bit far from your house. It's about an hour away. It's too late and I'm too lazy to go."
The handsome young man leaned lazily on the sofa and talked about the next arrangements.
"It just so happens that the Housing Authority will be open for work tomorrow. If my assistant can bring me good news, maybe I won't have to go to the hotel tomorrow and can just move directly."
Song Yun naturally had no objection, especially since his brother had been through so much abroad. If he was willing, he could even live with him for a while.
In fact, according to common sense, it would be best for Ye Wangxing to go home and live with his parents for a while, adapt to the current social situation, and then go out, but...
Song Yun immediately thought of her own parents.
If my parents made this request, an expression of 'I guess you can't leave us' would definitely appear on their faces.
In the end, he decided to work harder and accompany Ye Wangxing.
Speaking of this, the young man's expression finally softened a little.
At this time, the little cousin quickly raised her hand and said, "Cousin, although I can't sleep with you at night, I can play with you!"
The atmosphere was now much more relaxed. Song Yu stood up and prepared to tell Shi Xuanzhu about the matter. The little cousin also returned to her parents and told them that she had made successful arrangements and had gotten their parents to give her some money.
Adding to his own salary, Ye Wangxing doesn’t have to spend any more money on entertainment these days.
After all, even if they are rich, you can't always let them spend money. They are your relatives, not your father.
...Although my little cousin really wants to recognize this cousin as her father.
Then he was grabbed by his real father and his head was beaten, even his hairstyle for today was messed up.
While the little cousin's family was making a fuss, they did not notice that the young man smiled and left the sofa, walked into the garden again, and started talking on the phone with his assistant.
"Contact the people in the manor and test 'his' DNA."
There was still a smile on the young woman's lips, but the words she uttered were completely different from those of the fragile widow who just missed her husband.
He didn't seem to notice the voice coming from the corner behind him, and continued to speak to the other end of the phone.
"——I have to make sure that it is 'him' himself who is lying in the grave."
The young man looked up at the sky which was approaching dusk and spoke with a hint of coldness in his voice.
"I don't believe that ghost-like guy would be smashed into a pile of rotten meat by such a simple method."
When Song Yun told Shi Xuanzhu about this, Shi Xuanzhu, who had just returned from outside, subconsciously objected.
"You're going to live with him? No way!"
Shi Xuanzhu subconsciously refused firmly, which made Song Yun frown.
"I'm just away from home for a while, and my cousin is with me during the day, so I only need to accompany him at night. Besides, he just returned to China, and I'm a little worried about him."
Song Yun looked at Shi Xuanzhu with some surprise, and subconsciously began to coax Shi Xuanzhu in the same way as before.
"And if I'm by his side, wouldn't you be able to build a good relationship with him as soon as possible?" Song Yun whispered.
"When the time comes, you won't feel so awkward when you tell Ye Wangxing some requests, right?"
Shi Xuanzhu found it difficult to explain the reasons for his opposition.
After all, the young man could have denied the scene he had just seen outside, especially the blind spot where he had not installed any surveillance camera.
...Wait a minute, did the young man really walk over there by coincidence or did he observe that there was no surveillance camera there?
Shi Xuanzhu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and some of it showed on his face, which made Song Yun subconsciously think that Shi Xuanzhu was still concerned about what happened at the dinner table.
"Okay, I know what my brother said at the dinner table was harsh, but he just came back from abroad, and his husband was just buried. If you ask him to help you contact the Aldrin family at this time, he will naturally be disgusted."
Song Yun said softly, "You are still a little too hasty, but I also know that you were ridiculed by your father at the Dragon Boat Festival party before, and you are a little anxious. For this kind of thing, haste makes waste. Let's take it step by step and hone our acting skills first, right?"
Shi Xuanzhu had just come back to his senses from the panic when he heard Song Yun say this. He frowned subconsciously. It was his business that his father criticized him, but if Song Yun said this, he was wrong.
"Song Yun, I was just toasting to your brother just now, trying to please him as my brother-in-law, so that he wouldn't make things difficult for me, but he said so much to me. I thought he was your brother and I had to give him face, so I didn't say anything. I didn't expect him to be so disrespectful to your parents."
Shi Xuanzhu said bluntly.
He really thought that Ye Wangxing was disrespectful to his parents, and he also really felt that there was nothing wrong with what his parents said to him. On the contrary, this was an opportunity to help Ye Wangxing recognize his mistakes.
But look at what Ye Wangxing did, he actually insulted his parents in public!
"——This is extremely unfilial!"
Shi Xuanzhu said this very seriously, which made Song Yun open her eyes wide in shock.
In Song Yun's opinion, people like his parents deserved to be scolded like that by his younger brother.
It had been less than half a year since his brother's spouse died, and then he encountered that kind of thing. Instead of standing on his brother's side, his parents ridiculed him and even thought he was a stain. How could his brother not be angry?
Besides...
Song Yun thought about what his brother had said before.
His brother's husband was so good to him and he inherited most of his husband's inheritance. It can be seen that his brother's husband usually respected him very much. It was quite normal for Ye Wangxing to develop some temper.
His parents humiliated him in public, and his brother cursed at people like that because of his parents.
——If his parents were left abroad, Song Yun believed that his brother might even pull out a gun when he got angry.
But such a justifiable behavior is actually considered to be an act of great unfilial piety in Shi Xuanzhu's eyes?
Song Yun seemed to be meeting her husband for the first time. She had been married to him for seven or eight years, but Song Yun had no idea that Shi Xuanzhu actually thought like this when facing the elders.
Song Yun's eyes, as if he was looking at some old Qing Dynasty object, also made Shi Xuanzhu feel uncomfortable, but this discomfort finally cleared his mind, and he quickly patched it up and said.
"...Of course this is understandable. After all, my brother just became a widower. Song Yun, you should also be considerate of your parents. Your brother has been away from home for five years without saying a word. As parents, they are naturally angry. It's just that what they said was a bit too much."
Shi Xuanzhu said this again with a worried look in his eyes, and this statement was barely acceptable, making Song Yun nod.
"As for why I object to you and your brother living there, it's mainly because your brother has just returned to China and he must have a lot of things to do. Sometimes it would be troublesome for you to avoid suspicion. It would be better for you to have dinner with him in the evening before coming back."
Shi Xuanzhu spoke softly, as if she was genuinely considering Song Yun.
"Besides, I can't leave you here either. I'm about to join the crew, and Brother Qian has signed us up for a variety show. We can be guests in the observation room, which will be a good opportunity to promote the movie."
Shi Xuanzhu said this as a matter of course, but Song Yun frowned.
"You're going to join the crew and participate in a variety show right away, can you make time for it? And with your acting skills, you should focus on the role and acting when you join a movie crew. Participating in variety shows to promote the movie will easily distract you."
Song Yun was sincerely analyzing for Shi Xuanzhu. After all, Shi Xuanzhu's acting skills were more than enough to compare with those ugly sons and daughters of capitalists. However, this time, the film crew that he was trying his best to get into was a national one with countless veteran actors.
What he should do now is to figure out the script.
But Shi Xuanzhu frowned, feeling that Song Yun was belittling him.
The two of them immediately had a disagreement and started arguing in low voices.
Shi Xuanzhu felt that participating in the variety show would not take up much time. After all, he had just joined the crew and was playing a small role with not many shots. This was more than enough time for him to figure out the script.
However, Song Yun feels that even a small role requires publicity and a good script before acting. What's more, if Shi Xuanzhu takes on the focus of variety shows, most of his time will definitely be spent on variety shows. Does he really have time to figure out the script?
As they argued, the tension between them grew stronger and stronger, which also attracted Song's father and Ye's mother. They looked at the two men anxiously, intending to step forward and stop the fight if they saw that the situation was not getting good.
Even the little cousin hid behind them and watched them.
And just at this moment.
"jingle--"
The doorbell rang.
Shi Xuanzhu looked at the sky outside which was approaching dusk, wondering why anyone would come to his house at this time.
Song's father, Ye's mother and little cousin, who were hiding in the corner, also turned their eyes to the door.
Shi Xuanzhu didn't know that there were so many people behind him. He opened the door and found a man standing at the door.
The man was very tall, even taller than Shi Xuanzhu, who was 1.8 meters tall.
This made Shi Xuanzhu swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue, and he unconsciously took a step back to see the man's full appearance clearly.
——The man’s appearance is at the top of the pyramid in the entertainment industry, with a high nose and deep eyes, coupled with his tough yet soft facial lines, his face alone is enough to make some fans vote crazily.
The golden hair was firmly fixed on the head and combed into a slicked back style, revealing a superior hairline, as if it had been carefully caressed by the gentlest breeze and the warmest sunlight. Every strand of hair reflected the light of broken gold, wantonly and yet elegant.
This elegant man, who looked so refined as if he was about to attend a dinner party, smiled gently at Shi Xuanzhu who opened the door before speaking.
"Hello, Mr. Shi, I'm here to see Ye Wangxing."
The man said as a matter of course.
The man didn't act like he was meeting Shi Xuanzhu for the first time and he even directly mentioned the name of his brother-in-law who had just arrived at his house today.
This made Shi Xuanzhu feel as if something was wrong. He subconsciously suspected that the man had bad intentions, but the luxury goods on the man dispelled his previous suspicions.
But before he could react, he heard Ye Wangxing's voice coming from behind him.
"Okto? Why are you here?"
The handsome young man came over, his expression still cold, but his tone was filled with shock.
Shi Xuanzhu looked at the handsome young man and the man in front of him and seemed to know him, so he subconsciously asked, "Ye Wangxing, is this your friend?"
However, the two people standing at the door and looking at each other ignored him completely.
The man who had just smiled gently and elegantly in front of Shi Xuanzhu, immediately widened the curve of his mouth after seeing Ye Wangxing, and smiled like a big golden retriever who saw his master.
"Stargazer! I finally see you!"
The man spoke with an exaggerated tone of joy, which even made Shi Xuanzhu hallucinate that there was a tail wagging behind the man.
"Great, you're okay. By the way, that lunatic Chris didn't do anything to you, did he?"
The man said this with a hint of worry on his face, and he took a step forward as if wanting to give the young man a polite hug.
However, the handsome young man ignored his question.
He took a step back, avoiding the man's hug, rubbed his eyebrows as if he had a headache, then looked at the man in front of him and asked.
"I just found out about this address two hours ago. How on earth did you find this place?"
The young man's voice was very calm, but Song Yun and Song's father and Ye's mother in the back were not so calm. They subconsciously took a breath and began to look for handy equipment - but the little cousin's brain worked even faster.
She had already run to the kitchen to find a kitchen knife.
Shi Xuanzhu, on the other hand, had not yet reacted and was staring blankly at the confrontation between Ye Wangxing and the man.
The man who had just smiled like a big golden retriever became more gentle after hearing Ye Wangxing's words.
However, the words that came out were so gentle and totally irrelevant.
"It's a secret, dear."
The man raised his finger and placed it on his thin lips, looking at the beautiful young man in front of him with gentle eyes - then slowly curved into a crescent.
"——I won't give you a second chance to send me to the police station."
The man narrowed his eyes and said with a very beautiful smile.
The Song Yun family, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, said: "...Ah?"
The little cousin who just came out with a kitchen knife: "..."
Please ask, is it illegal to chop down a scoundrel who wants to kick down a widow's door at her doorstep?
Urgent, waiting online.
