Songye is someone who can be recognized at a glance, even if he's placed in a crowd.
Firstly, it's because of his impressive height, and secondly, it's because of his powerful aura.
His face clearly showed he was not someone to be trifled with.
Song Yanlin had only heard of Song Ye by name but never met him. Although this was their first meeting, he recognized Song Ye immediately.
After all, he had done a lot of research on the Gu family's affairs.
"When did the head of Songwu Hall become such a busybody? Why does he have to meddle in other people's family affairs?"
Although he knew Song Ye was a tough nut to crack, Song Yanlin's male pride prevented him from backing down the moment he saw him.
"Your family matters?"
Songye stopped when he had turned the white jade thumb ring halfway through.
"It's a family matter, isn't it, Sister Xuexi?"
Song Yanlin originally wanted to provoke Gu Xuexi again, but Song Ye didn't give him the chance.
He gripped Song Yanlin's left shoulder with one hand, his fingers pressing firmly and precisely into the acupoints that were stimulating the pain.
"It's none of your business how I manage things."
Songye is a true martial arts expert and someone who likes to solve problems in a simple and brutal way, so when he strikes, his strength is real and unreserved.
He dislikes troublesome people and things.
Song Yanlin felt as if half of his shoulder was about to be ripped off by Song Ye, and the pain made him break out in a cold sweat.
"Uncle, no."
They hadn't even exchanged a few words before these adults started fighting.
Xiao Anman snapped out of his daze, not knowing who the "uncle" was referring to.
"Master Song, we're outside..."
Seventh Brother cautiously added, "Whether it's in public or in front of Mr. Gu's sister and daughter."
Since they are all women, even if they were to play the hero and save the damsel in distress, they probably wouldn't be seen as positive figures. So it would be better if they toned it down a bit.
Upon hearing about his subordinate's conversation with the little dumpling he was meeting for the first time, Song Ye paused for a moment before releasing Song Yanlin's shoulder.
"roll."
He said coldly.
Given the vast difference in strength, Song Yanlin didn't stubbornly continue. After glancing at Gu Xuexi and the little one in her arms, he left with a meaningful look.
"Are you alright?"
Songye may seem like a rough man, but he is not without his delicate side.
"It's nothing, thank you for earlier."
Gu Xuexi and Song Ye were not strangers; they were only three years apart in age and had been playmates when they were young.
"You're welcome."
Although rumors circulated that Master Song hadn't made a move in a long time, and some people even placed bets on whether he had retired, Master Song himself didn't take it seriously.
"Uncle~"
One uncle left and another one came, and this uncle was really, really tall, he seemed even taller than Huahua's older brother in Xiaoyudi's class.
Xiao Anman thought this way because Huahua told her that she had an older brother who needed two beds to sleep in. Because of his height and build, a regular bed was not enough for him, so the family provided him with two beds.
This new uncle is so tall and strong, he'll probably need three beds.
The little baby is soft and cute, but Song Ye, who appears to be a tough guy, hides a secret in a corner of his heart.
That is, he particularly likes things with a cute and cuddly appearance.
Don't let Songye's current status as a big shot fool you; when he was a child, he secretly kept a stray dog that he found on the street when his parents forbade him to keep pets. The dog was only a few days old.
Unfortunately, a big shot has to maintain a certain air, and Songye is well aware that his subordinates fear him like the plague.
For a little kid like Xiao Anman, it's already a good thing if he doesn't scare her when he speaks.
I didn't expect Xiao Anman to greet him so proactively. So she really is Gu Tingxiao's daughter? I doubt most children would have the courage to do that.
The big boss Songye was a little flustered by Xiao Anman's enthusiasm, so he just hummed in response.
Children's world is always very simple and pure, but adults are different.
Adults are all a lot of trouble.
Since Song Ye had helped them out of that predicament, Gu Xuexi naturally wanted to reciprocate. This was her shop, and whatever Song Ye picked out, he could take it with him.
"...Just browse around, and take what you like."
In the end, they were just childhood playmates. Time had changed everything. Gu Xuexi didn't like owing favors to others, so she wanted to settle things with Songye one thing at a time.
Song Ye knew Gu Xuexi somewhat and knew that Gu Xuexi was objective and not personal, which was just her personality and habit, so he didn't bother to argue with her about it.
The food for the old lady's birthday banquet had already been prepared long ago. He came here today just as Seventh Brother had said.
They came out to pick out a couple of extras, just for a stroll.
So he didn't refuse.
Gu Xuexi had already revealed her identity and membership status when a slightly overweight manager appeared in front of her.
She desperately wanted to know who had placed that ruby ring in the corner of the counter.
The manager ushered Gu Xuexi into the VIP room.
The VIP room was quite large. Xiao An sat on the sofa and stretched her legs. She couldn't understand what the manager was saying to her aunt, so after sitting for a while, she slipped off the sofa.
Then he opened the door to the VIP room and returned to the front.
Songye, as robust as a small mountain, is still here; he hasn't left.
Xiao Anman wasn't afraid of him at all; in fact, she was quite curious about him.
After glancing at it a few times, she trotted over to Songye.
"So crispy~"
Running a little too fast, Xiao Anman started rambling again.
The contrast between such a tiny human cub and Songye is striking.
"What's the matter?"
His voice was as deep and resonant as ever, but to be considerate of Xiao Anman's feelings and to avoid making her strain her neck to speak, Song Ye naturally knelt on one knee, trying to maintain an equal eye level with her.
"Uncle, do you know who that uncle was just now?"
Looking so much like her father, Gu Xuexi kept saying she didn't know him, even though they clearly knew each other. Xiao Anman's curiosity was immediately piqued.
The lack of answers was agonizing, so she still hoped to get help from this seemingly tall and powerful uncle to find out Song Yanlin's identity.
How can Songye put this?
Tell Xiao Anman that the person who just left was your father's brother?
Or should we tell Xiao Anman that the reason they treated Song Yanlin this way was because he was the murderer who indirectly caused your grandmother's death?
