Chapter 068 Attract Him
Tang Qing didn't explain the reason in detail, and today wasn't the right time, so Song Yi didn't ask any more questions.
However, when arranging the seats, Song Yi deliberately separated Tang Qing and Jiang Budu.
She sat opposite Jiang Budu, Song Lansheng faced Fu Xijing, and the seat opposite Tang Qing was empty.
Anyone who knows the situation can see that Song Yi made such an arrangement on purpose.
Fortunately, Jiang Budu was cooperative and we finished the lunch peacefully.
After lunch, Fu Xijing and Jiang Budu left.
Song Lansheng went back to his room to bask in the sun, while Tang Qing stayed in the kitchen to clean up with Song Yi.
While cleaning up, Song Yi glanced outside and asked Tang Qing in a low voice, "Are you okay?"
Tang Qing shook his head, "It's okay."
She sounded calm, and although her emotions were somewhat affected, she was not panicked.
Tang Qing has always been the most rational among the three of them, and Song Yi admires her very much.
"By the way, you and President Jiang..." After hesitating for a long time, Song Yi finally asked the question that had been of long-standing curiosity.
Before, Tang Qing only said in general terms that her relationship with Jiang Budu was similar to that with Fu Xijing, without mentioning any details.
But today Song Yi had a vague feeling that things might not be that simple.
Tang Qing closed the dishwasher door, wiped his hands, and said to Song Yi, "He'll probably pick on me next."
For the next ten minutes or so, Song Yi listened to Tang Qing talk about the reasons why she and Jiang Budu got together.
And the reason why they broke up.
Song Yi fell silent after hearing this.
I finally understood why Ying Xing cursed Jiang Budu so harshly.
What Jiang Budu did to Tang Qing was really...
"Why don't I go talk to him." As a friend, Song Yi naturally would not watch Tang Qing being bullied.
"No need." Tang Qing shook his head. "If the enemy comes, we will stop him. If the water comes, we will block it with earth. He hasn't made a move yet. It's up to you."
Song Yi: "What if he picks on you at work?"
Tang Qing: "I already know the worst possible outcome. There's no point in being so nervous. He won't stop just because I worry about him."
Tang Qing was so calm that he seemed to be analyzing other people's affairs.
Song Yi looked at her like this, his eyes fixed on her for a long time without moving away.
Finally, he sighed and said, "Sometimes I really wish I could be like you."
In fact, neither Tang Qing nor Ying Xing are the kind of people who are prone to internal conflicts.
Song Yi often envied their free and easy attitude, but she couldn't do that.
"You don't have to be like anyone else. You are fine the way you are now." Tang Qing immediately understood why Song Yi said this.
She smiled and patted Song Yi's shoulder, "Don't worry about things that haven't happened yet."
Song Yi nodded, "Yeah."
After a brief interlude, the two of them cleaned up the kitchen and returned to the bedroom. Tang Qing and Song Yi lay down on the double bed in her room together.
The two lay down and chatted for a few minutes, and then Song Yi received a WeChat message from Sister Qing.
Sister Qing: [Xiaoyi, has your mother been discharged from the hospital?]
Song Yi: [Just released today.]
Sister Qing: [So, are you free to come out this Saturday afternoon? I'll arrange a meeting for you.]
...arrange a meeting?
Song Yi tightened his grip on the phone, his heart pounding.
Just as she was about to ask, Sister Qing sent another message: [The candidates I personally screen are all top-notch in terms of character, ability, and background. Don't worry.]
Song Yi was somewhat surprised at Sister Qing's efficiency.
However, for Song Yi, the sooner they met, the better, so she agreed without hesitation.
Sister Qing sent the time and place, and later told her some background information about the other party.
Both of his parents are very famous prosecutors, and three generations have been in politics. He is currently a lawyer and has set up his own law firm. From Sister Qing's description, the law firm should be top-notch in the industry.
Sister Qing had just finished introducing the background when she had something urgent to do and had to go away.
Until the end of the chat, Song Yi didn't know the other person's name.
But the name is not the most important thing. After all, we will meet each other on the weekend, and there is plenty of time to remember names when we meet.
Song Yi's attention was focused on the other party's background - three generations in politics.
Since he knows Sister Qing, his position and status cannot be low. Since ancient times, officials have had higher status than businessmen.
If she could really develop a relationship with her blind date, Fu Xijing would definitely not offend that side for her.
In this way, she could successfully get rid of Fu Xijing.
Regardless of whether she and the other party can develop to the stage of marriage, getting rid of Fu Xijing is a success.
If she hesitates to make a decision, she will suffer the consequences. She can no longer continue to be entangled with Fu Xijing.
Song Yi showed Tang Qing the chat history with Sister Qing.
"Heng'an Law Firm?" Tang Qing read out the name.
Song Yi: "Do you understand?"
Tang Qing: "I know a little bit. I heard that several of their partners have unusual backgrounds, which is why they've become one of the top ten in China in less than five years. But I'm not sure which one Sister Qing wants to introduce you to."
"But the man's condition is exactly what you need." Tang Qing looked at the chat dialog box and analyzed for Song Yi: "There are not many people in the whole North City who can compete with Fu Xijing. Those who do business are basically his friends, but those in politics are different. They won't get too close to him, and Fu Xijing can't challenge them openly."
"Try hard and give it a try." Tang Qing patted Song Yi's shoulder and encouraged her.
Song Yi lowered her head and intertwined her fingers.
There is no doubt that the other party was willing to meet her for a blind date not because he was very interested in her, but to give face to Sister Qing.
What she needs to do is to seize this opportunity, attract the other party, or at least gain his favor.
To put it bluntly, it is seduction.
But this is not what Song Yi is good at.
"Don't feel pressured." Tang Qing saw Song Yi's worry and said, "Let it be."
Song Yi took a deep breath and said, "I don't have anything attractive to me."
"That's too self-deprecating." Tang Qing disagreed with her. "You're not bad at anything."
"My family--" Song Yi couldn't continue.
When she was with Xu Shengwen before, his parents strongly opposed it because of her background.
She has no father and cannot say who her father is, so others naturally regard her as a disgraceful bastard or illegitimate daughter.
Song Yi has heard these words many times since he was a child.
This is the case for ordinary people when choosing a spouse, and people with extraordinary backgrounds will only care more.
When talking about this matter, Tang Qing's expression became much more serious.
She looked towards the door and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to find a chance to talk to your aunt about this?"
Song Yi is almost thirty years old, but he still doesn't know his own background. It sounds incredible.
——
Tang Qing left in the afternoon.
After she left, Song Yi seriously considered what she had said.
After dinner, Song Yi helped Song Lansheng back to the bedroom and sat down with her.
After taking a deep breath, Song Yi finally spoke and asked the lines he had practiced countless times -
"Mom, can you tell me about my father?"
Hearing this question, Song Lansheng's face froze and the smile in his eyes gradually disappeared.
Song Yi waited silently.
After a long time, Song Lansheng sighed.
