Chapter 298 My family has delicious wontons, do you want to come and eat?
These blunt words left Yan Buyu momentarily stunned.
Song Jingyi didn't like seeing her like this.
His sister must always be sunny and happy.
“It’s right that you have the surname Shen. The Song family didn’t know you existed and never raised you. You’re grateful and it’s perfectly fine for you to take their surname.” Song Jingyi handed her the small cake. “A name is just a label.”
Yan Buyu took the dessert, a pink cream cake topped with a bright red strawberry.
She looked down, reached out and picked up a strawberry, taking a bite.
“I used to be very awkward,” she said while eating. “I was afraid to speak up because I was afraid of losing face, so I always kept it to myself. Later, Si Jingxu told me that I should take care of my own feelings first, and then communicate properly.”
Song Jingyi didn't know why she suddenly brought this up, but he listened attentively. "He's right. People should always put themselves first."
“I listened to it and I did it. I just called my uncle ‘Dad,’ and I found that I was very happy afterward.”
“Yes, I can tell,” Song Jingyi said with a smile. “Uncle Shen is happy too. His face must be stiff from smiling for so long.”
Yan Buyu looked up at Song Jingyi with bright eyes, "I don't care about Song Shuchen and Meng Qingzhi, but I care about your feelings. If I change my surname to Chen, will you be unhappy?"
Song Jingyi's smile froze, and a pang of sadness struck his heart.
My sister said she cares about him.
“Silly little fish, I don’t care about anything in my life,” Song Jingyi also picked up a piece of strawberry cake, took a bite, and said in a deep voice, “Grandma and you are the exceptions.”
After his grandmother died, he had no ties to the family and joined a mercenary group without shedding a single tear.
He didn't even care about his own life. He was crazy and ruthless. He could do things that ordinary people couldn't do, not only because he was talented, but more so because he was fearless.
He had always thought he would live his life in such a cold and indifferent way.
"Tell me, would someone like me care what your surname is? Whether it's Shen or Song, you're just my little fish." Song Jingyi ate half a cake, his deep eyes filled with laughter. "It tastes good, doesn't it?"
“I know an even better place, I’ll take you there another day.” Yan Buyu smiled and put down the snacks. “There’s also a barbecue place that I really love. We have similar tastes, I’m sure you’ll like it too.”
"Then it's settled."
The brother and sister walked towards Lan Xinyan while talking.
Shen Zhiye rubbed his face, which was stiff from smiling. "Jingyi, how about we go home for a late-night snack? Let's open a bottle of champagne."
"Uncle Shen, I won't bother you any longer. I have something to take care of," Song Jingyi said as he escorted his sister to her family. "I'll visit them another day."
He turned and took two steps.
"Jingyi," Shen Zhiye called out to him.
"Uncle Chen, is there anything else?"
Shen Zhiye's smile faded slightly. He walked over and said, "Jingyi, Buyu is your sister, that won't change. From now on, the Shen family will be your second home. Just treat it as having another close relative to visit, okay?"
"Alright, Uncle Shen, then I won't stand on ceremony." Song Jingyi said, and left gracefully.
For Shen Zhiye to say that was already very magnanimous.
They were much better than the two people he was about to face.
It's the wisest choice for my sister to stay with the Shen family.
"Zhiye, stop smiling like that, it's tiring for you." Si Chengli and Ling Huiwen came over with their son to greet him, teasing him.
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhiye's smile widened even further.
"Chengli, how about I treat you to a drink later? Oh, no, no, I have to take my child home. My daughter is growing and can't stay up late."
"Alright, I envy you, okay?" Si Chengli glanced at Yan Buyu, quite satisfied. "Your daughter from the Shen family is indeed quite good."
They are knowledgeable, reasonable, and grateful.
When it's time to act decisively, they're much better than those kids who cry and whine at the slightest provocation and can't think straight.
However, he wasn't too envious. In two years, when his son became more successful, he would be able to enjoy the company of the Shen family's daughter as his wife.
Ling Huiwen held Lan Xinyan's hand and said, "Although the process was not good, the result was good. Xinyan, you raised a wonderful child."
Lan Xinyan squeezed her hand back, "Huiwen, it's Zhiye's birthday in a couple of days, your whole family should come."
"Of course, as the future in-law of the Shen family, I should definitely be there."
Ling Huiwen thought to herself, "Shen Zhiye is so smug."
On his birthday, he will definitely make a big show of introducing Yan Buyu as his daughter.
With such a beautiful and understanding girl like Bu Yu, there will be far too many people vying to become in-laws with the Shen family.
She also had to project the aura of the Si family matriarch so that those people wouldn't dare to make a move on her future daughter-in-law.
Seriously, how could they skip Si Jingxu and directly make Buyu call her "Mom"?
She also longs to be linked arm-in-arm with a well-behaved daughter who calls her "Mom" in a sweet and affectionate way.
"Mom, I'm going to see Buyu off. You and Dad go." Si Jingxu said this and walked past her.
Ling Huiwen felt a lump in her throat.
Oh well, I'll just take good care of myself and live a few more years.
Once Buyu marries into the family, she can openly and legitimately possess the little cutie.
The Shen family of five and Si Jingxu walked outside together.
"Jingxu, let's have some late-night snacks at home later. I'll have the housekeeper prepare them." Lan Xinyan knew what Si Jingxu wanted to do.
“Sure, Aunt Lan, do you have wontons?” Si Jingxu asked without hesitation.
“Whatever you want to eat, we’ll have it,” Lan Xinyan said with a smile, “and our favorite side dishes.”
"Thank you, Aunt Lan." Si Jingxu took the opportunity to squeeze his girlfriend's hand.
Shen Zhiye was in a good mood today and pretended not to see the brat's little tricks.
"Is that Jingyi over there?" Shen Yunqi spotted a man smoking next to a black car not far away.
The group looked over.
Song Jingyi, with one hand in his pocket, lazily smoked a cigarette and gazed into the distance.
Song Shuchen and Meng Qingzhi stood behind him.
The two seemed to have argued. Meng Qingzhi angrily tried to get into the car, but Song Shuchen grabbed her hand and wouldn't let her go.
Then the woman got angry, and the man tried to coax her.
The more Yan Buyu looked at them, the more he felt that the two of them looked like they were acting in an old-fashioned idol drama.
Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case. It's one thing to be unable to think things through when you're young, but you're already old, why can't you understand it?
Suddenly, she felt a pang of sympathy for Song Jingyi, who looked completely indifferent.
For some reason, a thought struck her, and she took out her phone and dialed Song Jingyi's number.
Song Jingyi, who was smoking, took out his phone, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Xiaoyu." He answered quickly.
“Brother Jingyi, I’m on your left. Um, my family has some delicious wontons. Do you want to come and have some?”
Song Jingyi looked slightly surprised and turned to take a look.
His best sister in the world is smiling and waving at him right now.
“Okay,” he said.
Then, he hung up the phone, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and stomped it out.
Ignoring her parents' tantrums behind her, she walked towards her smiling younger sister.
The regret of not having my younger sister grow up by my side was completely relieved at this moment.
Song Jingyi thought that if his sister lived in the Song family like him, he wouldn't see such a sweet smile, nor would he be able to eat such delicious wontons.
