That was the end of the matter. Song Lili left, leaving the Zhang family to discuss the details themselves, while waiting for Luo Juan to come again.
They planned to give Luo Juan a surprise when she tried to use this issue to make things difficult for them again.
With a solution in hand, Song Lili stopped getting involved in Zhang Qinghua's family affairs and just waited for the matter to be resolved.
She also has a lot of things to take care of at home.
First, there's the issue of Zhang Zeyu.
Since recognizing Zhang Zeyu as her cousin, Song Lili has never seen him again, and Song Yongren has been constantly talking about him.
Thinking that they had only exchanged a few words and had never seen each other again, Song Yongren asked Song Lili to invite Zhang Zeyu to their house for dinner.
Song Lili thought that spring planting was approaching, and after this meal, she didn't know when she could come again. So she agreed.
When they arrived at the educated youth settlement, they found that all the doors were closed, and they didn't know if anyone was there.
"Zhang Zeyu, is Zhang Zeyu here?" Song Lili shouted loudly from outside the door.
After a while, one of the doors opened, and Zhang Zeyu's face came into Song Lili's view.
“My boss wants you to come to his house for dinner,” Song Lili said directly to Zhang Zeyu.
"Let's go then." Zhang Zeyu waved and was about to follow Song Lili.
“…Let’s go.” Song Lili gave Zhang Zeyu a strange look, but didn’t say anything and followed him.
This person seems to know why she came.
Song Lili shook her head, feeling somewhat suspicious, but she didn't think too much about it. Even if she knew, what could she do?
Anyway, she didn't have any bad intentions. If she knows, she knows.
However, the two had just turned around when they were stopped. "Where are you going? Take me with you, I want to go too," Chu Ci said with a grin.
"Not interested." Song Lili said coldly, and tried to walk around Chu Ci to leave, but unexpectedly Chu Ci stretched out his arm to block Song Lili.
"Hey, you can't leave." Chu Ci still smiled. "Why can Zhang Zeyu go, but I can't?" This was also what frustrated Chu Ci.
"I dislike you, so I don't want to take you, okay?" Song Lili said coldly.
"You hate me? Why do you hate me? You were the one who stabbed me in the back last time, okay?"
"I'm not even angry, so why do you hate me?" Chu Ci kept asking.
"roll"
Whenever Song Lili thought of Song Fang's appearance back then, she couldn't get along with Chu Ci calmly, and she couldn't talk to him properly.
It's all because of this person. It's all because of him that Fangfang became like that, that she became so sensitive and timid.
Now this person is actually asking her why she hates him. Isn't that ironic?
"You brat, don't push your luck. I haven't even settled accounts with you yet, why are you giving me this attitude?" Chu Ci was also unhappy.
"I'm waiting for you to settle accounts with me." A cold glint flashed in Song Lili's eyes, and a cruel smile appeared on her lips.
Settling accounts?
Alright, we'll settle everything one by one and get our revenge properly.
"You... what's wrong with you?" Chu Ci asked uncertainly, looking at Song Lili's cold demeanor.
He didn't believe he had any deep-seated hatred for Song Lili, so Song Lili shouldn't treat him like that.
The last time he went to be a bandit for fun, nothing really happened, he just scared this brat a little.
Moreover, this brat stabbed him in the back, and he didn't say anything. How come it seems like this brat suffered a great loss now?
Chu Ci couldn't understand and wanted to ask again, but Song Lili had already left with Zhang Zeyu.
"What on earth is going on?" Chu Ci scratched his head, completely baffled.
Zhang Zeyu had the same question; he hadn't expected his cousin to dislike Chu Ci so much.
The cruel, ruthless smile she revealed made even Zhang Zeyu's heart skip a beat.
Such a gaze, such an expression... should not appear on her face.
Could it be that these two people have a grudge against each other?
That's what Zhang Zeyu was thinking, and that's why he asked, "Cousin, do you and Chu Ci... have a grudge?"
“Yes, I have a deep-seated grudge,” Song Lili said through gritted teeth.
If it weren't for Song Fang's affair, Song Lili and Chu Ci could have been completely cleared of each other.
He scared her by acting like a bandit, so she stabbed him in the back—that's fair enough.
But now, with Fangfang's situation, this grudge can never be left unresolved.
“You…” Zhang Zeyu originally wanted to ask, but after seeing Song Lili’s calm expression, he decided against it.
He felt that it was not the right time for him to ask about this now; perhaps he would find out later, but now was not the time.
Finally, Zhang Zeyu shut up and said nothing.
Song Lili didn't say anything; she didn't want to bring up these things, because thinking about them would remind her of Fangfang's past.
Those were memories she didn't want to recall.
She went to great lengths to help Fangfang gradually become like a normal person; it was a heartbreaking story.
Even if Zhang Zeyu asks, she won't tell.
Song Yongren was already waiting for Zhang Zeyu at home. As soon as he saw Zhang Zeyu, he immediately went over to greet him warmly.
"Xiaoyu's here? Come and sit down. Are you settling in well? Is there anything you don't like?"
"If there's anything you're not used to, please tell me, and I'll try to find a way to help you."
Song Yongren treated Zhang Zeyu like his own child.
Zhang Zeyu probably noticed this too, and became quite close to Song Yongren.
"Uncle, there's nothing I'm not used to, everything's fine." Even if there were things they weren't used to, there was nothing they could do about it.
It will take a long time to get children who have grown up in the city to like rural life.
However, Zhang Zeyu also understood that these were the conditions here, and he could only gradually get used to them.
So, apart from the environment, there's nothing I'm not used to.
Song Yongren couldn't think of these things because he had never seen city kids living in the countryside before.
However, Song Lili understood this and didn't say anything more.
Now that Zhang Zeyu is here, he has to get used to it.
He'll be staying here for a long time, and if he's not used to it, he'll suffer alone; no one will help him, so he has to adapt as quickly as possible.
Only by adapting to this place and adjusting your mindset can you live a good life here.
Song Lili saw that Zhang Zeyu was a sensible person and guessed that he could figure these things out himself, so she didn't say anything.
If any problems arise in the future that Zhang Zeyu can't solve, then it's not too late to help.
Now, it's not a bad idea to let him go out and explore on his own.
