Chapter 81 Chapter 81 Who is Song Xian?
Mr. Kevin Chen, whom I know, the eldest grandson of the Hong Kong clothing tycoon Chen and the cousin of my husband, is actually called Chen Songxian? !
The absurd words "Songxian" made Lin Keying dizzy.
He is Songxian, then who is her husband?
It’s impossible that all my cousins are Songxian? !
Her mind was in a mess, with thoughts flying all over the place. All the things that happened after she came to Hong Kong from the mainland flashed through Lin Keying's mind. Some details that she had never doubted before now sprouted forked branches, seemingly pointing in another direction.
All she knew was the eight-word evaluation of her fiancé in the original book - "handsome, rich, and generous", as well as two titles - "young master" and "Brother Songxian".
Everything happened after I arrived at the villa halfway up the mountain and saw the handsome and noble man.
Maybe it was wrong from the beginning?
But when she called out "Brother Songxian" and threw herself into the man's arms, he was not pushed away.
But when he mentioned his past experiences of coming to Hong Kong from the mainland to the Cheng family, they did not refute him and even responded with a few words.
If it was wrong from the beginning, how do we explain this?
Her mind was too confused. Lin Keying kept doubting her own judgment and these days. She recalled and examined every detail of their time together, those details that she had once overlooked.
It seemed that the leader of the Cheng family occasionally behaved abnormally, especially when he heard himself call him Brother Songxian; Mr. Kevin Chen's approach and then retreat; the Cheng family mentioned the mainland, but were reluctant to say more; and especially on New Year's Day, the cousin and his younger cousin had an unusual confrontation outside the restaurant.
If Kevin Chen is Chen Songxian, then who is Brother Songxian?
Everything was too messy, there were too many unclear things, and the fog was so thick that Lin Keying couldn't see the truth, the truth that was within reach.
Until the bathroom door was opened and the tall and handsome man walked out of the bathroom, Lin Keying looked up at him. To be fair, such a man deserves the description of handsome, rich, and generous.
But she still hesitated...
"Reading magazines again?" Cheng Wanting didn't quite understand his wife's hobby. How interesting could gossip magazines be? However, he didn't interfere.
In addition, he had instructed Yang Minghui at the beginning to inform all newspapers, magazines and television media in Hong Kong that the three words "Chen Songxian" must not appear. After Lin Keying bought the magazines last year, he also paid close attention to it. Later, when there were more and more magazines in Lin Keying's room, and each issue of different magazines was piled up like several small mountains, he did not ask about it again.
"Hmm." Lin Keying's throat tightened, her green fingertips tightly grasped the magazine pages, she slammed it shut, and quickly put it back into the pile of magazines under the bedside table.
It was even placed downwards on purpose.
Lin Keying's eyes narrowed as she glanced at the pile of magazines and books, her chest heaving.
The bed beside her sank slightly, and as a man emitting hot air approached, Lin Keying's doubts grew even stronger.
Cheng Wanting put one hand on her waist and leaned over to kiss her. The distance between them was getting closer and closer, so close that their breaths were almost entangled together. Lin Keying slightly opened her cherry lips and murmured three words.
"Songxian brother."
The subtle expression that had never been noticed before was now reflected in Lin Keying's distinct almond-shaped eyes.
As soon as the three words "Brother Songxian" came out, the man in front of her paused in kissing, and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes, which disappeared in an instant.
Lin Keying's eyelashes trembled slightly as she took in the man's instant reaction.
Soon, the man's bony hands pinched his chin and lifted it up slightly. His deep voice was firm and resolute: "In bed, you can only call me husband."
The thin lips pressed against hers forcefully and sucked on her lips. Lin Keying didn't know how to react for a moment.
The questions that had just been piling up in my heart surged like a flood, but it was difficult to ask them out loud.
After spending a long time with Cheng Wanting, she has already determined that this man is meticulous and capable. If she asks now, can she really get the truth?
With a man's scheming and means, he can definitely give himself a reasonable explanation.
But is that the truth?
Lin Keying closed her lips tightly and swallowed all her questions.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Wanting kissed the woman's red lips, sometimes sucking, sometimes biting, but he could feel that she was absent-minded, "Why aren't you concentrating on a kiss?"
He pried open the woman's pearly teeth forcefully and domineeringly, and his lips and tongue tightly hooked around her tongue. He sucked hard, stirred it, and swallowed it with big mouthfuls. For a moment, the only sounds in the quiet bedroom were heavy breathing and the sound of saliva exchanging.
The body's instinct precedes the rational reaction. After so many times of intimacy, kissing seems to have become an instinct.
The familiar scent of the man enveloped Lin Keying like an overwhelming force. She automatically entangled with him and when she felt comfortable being kissed...the words in the magazine flashed before her eyes again.
All other words disappeared, leaving only the three glaring words "Chen Songxian" standing prominently on the white paper, unforgettable.
"Wait a minute!" Lin Keying withdrew from the man's lips and tongue with difficulty, and pressed her palm against her chest. Her face flushed, and her chest rose and fell. For a moment, she couldn't tell whether it was due to excitement or nervousness. "I don't feel well."
Cheng Wanting didn't know much about women's menstruation, so he reached down into the depths of the forest and asked, "Is this what's causing you discomfort?"
Cheng Wanting seldom has contact with women, the only one being his own sister. Cheng Min once experienced abdominal pain due to menstruation, so Cheng Wanting asked the family doctor to treat his sister, but the fuss made the doctor sweat profusely.
Now, he naturally thought of this matter.
"Yeah." Lin Keying was worried that she couldn't find an excuse. Since he misunderstood, let the misunderstanding continue.
Lin Keying was placed flat on the bed by the man. He held her tightly in his strong arms, and put his large palms on her abdomen, massaging it gently.
Warmth and tingling gradually appeared in her waist and abdomen. Lin Keying felt confused, but had no time to care about anything else. She could only force herself to close her eyes and fall into a deep sleep.
++++
That night, Lin Keying did not sleep well. Dreams one after another flooded into her mind, chaotic, dislocated, absurd... The world in her dreams was subverted, her cognition was completely overturned, and it seemed that everything was false.
Lin Keying woke up and rubbed her sleepy eyes. She saw the beautiful crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Each piece was crystal clear, gorgeous and precious. In the spacious and exquisite bedroom, various high-end furniture were displayed. The blue curtains hanging at the windows fluttered in the breeze, dancing in a gentle arc with the warm sun.
Lin Keying woke up quietly. The bizarre dream was exposed under the sunshine of reality and left quietly. Everything she was in was real.
The man next to him had already left. Cheng Wanting was an unshakable workaholic and would not delay his work schedule unless it was necessary.
Such a workaholic actually provided convenience to Lin Keying.
She has the time and space to do her own thing.
When Ah Mei saw her wife get up and go downstairs, she hurried to prepare breakfast. She was quick and efficient, and by the time Lin Keying had finished washing up, breakfast was on the table.
But today, my wife chatted with her while drinking milk.
"Amei, you have been in the Mid-Levels Villa for so long. Have you ever been to the eldest young master's old house?" Lin Keying asked calmly.
Ah Mei shook her head: "Madam, I haven't been there, but Uncle Zhong and Mrs. Hua came from the old house."
When talking about the old house, Mrs. Hua recalled the past and talked about the time when she served the first wife in the old house.
Lin Keying was curious: "Where did the eldest young master and his family live before?"
Lin Keying originally wanted to ask Mrs. Hua directly about Brother Songxian's name, but according to her husband, he changed his name after coming to Hong Kong City. These servants in Hong Kong City might not know about it. If she really asked, it would easily reach the ears of the men.
She didn't want to alert the enemy before finding out the truth.
I vaguely asked for information during the chat, but it didn't arouse any suspicion.
Mrs. Hua shook her head: "I don't know. Anyway, the Cheng family bought a villa in Deep Water Bay after the master worked hard to make a fortune."
Lin Keying nodded thoughtfully. After breakfast, she drove her own Bentley onto the winding mountain road. The fresh breeze blew from the windows on both sides, clearing her mind.
When she arrived at Hongsheng Entertainment Company, Lin Keying first approached Tang Qiankun.
Thinking carefully, there are not many people around her who can be used. Almost all the others are Cheng Wanting's people. She needs to investigate secretly.
"Go check the history of the Cheng family of Huanyu Group. The more detailed the better, especially the beginning."
Tang Qiankun's keen paparazzi sense comes into play.
Oh no, the wife is investigating the husband. Here it comes, the familiar plot is coming!
Could it be that my boss’s marriage is in trouble and his relationship is in crisis? This kind of drama usually happens when the wife suspects her husband of having another woman outside and wants to divide the family property!
"Boss Lin, don't worry! I will investigate thoroughly! Many rich wives ask me to take photos of their husbands. I'm very experienced! I will definitely risk my life to help you take photos of evidence so that you can get more of his property!"
Lin Keying: "..."
This paparazzi is too associative...
Cheng Wanting has other women outside? That seems to be more difficult than guessing the truth about Songxian brother by myself!
"I'll do it carefully if you ask me to." Lin Keying said firmly, "Remember, don't let anyone else know. Be careful."
"I understand, I understand!" Tang Qiankun was very professional in investigating this kind of thing. He just patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, especially don't let your husband know. I understand it very well!"
Lin Keying: "..."
But it is true that my husband cannot know about this.
In addition to Tang Qiankun, Lin Keying also has a trustworthy person by her side, Yang Qiuhui. As a talent recruited by herself into Xitian, Yang Qiuhui's ability to do things is obvious to all. She is decisive and thorough.
"Qiu Hui, please check for me how Gangcheng Huanyu Shipping got started, especially how it started decades ago."
Tang Qiankun's path was rather unorthodox, and his connections were mostly those that were not very visible, with friends from all walks of life. However, Yang Qiuhui was naturally different.
Letting two people with different approaches do the same thing should be able to filter out useless information.
Yang Qiuhui never asked her boss why he gave her a task and she would just agree to it directly.
Lin Keying arranged the task, but she still couldn't help thinking, was her guess just wishful thinking or did she touch upon the truth?
Bent over the desk, writing on a piece of white paper, Lin Keying wrote Brother Song Xian in the center, with Cheng Wanting on the left and Kevin Chen on the right, and the Cheng family and the Chen family above in order.
Who is that man, Brother Songxian, who has been engaged to the original body for more than ten years?
——
While waiting for news, Lin Keying never stopped thinking. She realized that her life trajectory might have been wrong from the beginning, and she felt complicated.
When Cheng Wanting asked Mrs. Hua to cook brown sugar eggs for him, his chaotic thoughts temporarily stopped.
After making the excuse of feeling unwell for two days in a row, Lin Keying was surprised that a man who always talked about things related to the Hang Seng Index, real estate and shipping business could actually tell her how to relieve dysmenorrhea.
This... just doesn't make sense.
Mrs. Hua smiled brightly and brought the deep red sugar-water eggs to the study: "Madam, please drink the brown sugar eggs soon. The eldest young master personally told me to make them."
After leaving the living room, Mrs. Hua excitedly said to Uncle Zhong: "I was shocked today. The young master actually knew this!"
Uncle Zhong was also amazed: "It's not that simple."
The brown sugar and egg water tasted sweet. Lin Keying drank it with gritted teeth under the watchful eyes of the man. For a moment, she was a little dazed.
Who is the man in front of me? !
Without revealing anything in the man's eyes, Lin Keying was working with Cheng Wanting in the study at night, and everything was normal.
Cheng Wanting even showed him the progress project book of the Shatin Development Zone. The thick document detailed the plan for the construction of a complex of villas and elevator apartments.
"Aren't you interested in this?" Cheng Wanting pointed at the printed black and white building schematic, "You can pick a building when the time comes."
Lin Keying always felt that men were using sugar-coated bullets on her. How could the attraction of a building not be strong?
"Charles would be furious if he found out that the resources he worked so hard to obtain were paving the way for you." Lin Keying swept her eyes across a schematic diagram of the building. The simple pattern was worth billions.
Cheng Wanting did not comment: "He won't know."
"Really?" Lin Keying narrowed her eyes and opened her red lips slightly, "Can you hide this from him forever?"
Cheng Wanting raised his lips slightly and said, "I never worry about things that haven't happened yet. That's just worrying about nothing."
The man had strong self-confidence and decisive judgment, and there was not even a trace of panic or confusion on his face.
Lin Keying was secretly shocked. Such a person would be truly terrifying if he were an opponent.
——
Tang Qiankun was entrusted by Lin Keying to secretly investigate the rise of the Cheng family, which occupies half of the shipping business in the port city. The information on the surface and the information secretly obtained through the relationships with all kinds of people were combined.
"Mr. Lin, the Cheng family made their fortune thirty years ago. Cheng Guanjie is very capable. He started from scratch as a dock porter and bought a ship. Later, he took over a dock through business. In six or seven years, he took over one-third of the cargo docks in the port city." Tang Qiankun had always heard of the reputation of the former boss of Huanyu, but had never inquired about it in detail.
"Is Cheng Guanjie from Hong Kong, or is he from the mainland?" Lin Keying asked a soul-searching question.
The port city began its post-war reconstruction in the 1950s. It was also at that time that a large number of foreign population poured in, and one could obtain the port city identity by venturing onto the island.
If we trace back to the roots of Hong Kong today, we will find that many people’s ancestors came from the mainland.
When it comes to this key question, Tang Qiankun slapped his thigh and said, "There are many different opinions on the news we have heard. One version is that Cheng Guanjie emerged at the age of 20. We only know that his parents died early, and he started to work hard with his sister. Another version is that Cheng Guanjie moved his family from the mainland, but this happened more than 30 years ago, so it is difficult to verify."
Tang Qiankun had anticipated this: "For the wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong today, their history of making a fortune is just like unofficial history. There are many different opinions and everyone has countless versions."
This is not wrong. Just like many gossip magazines, they also like to report the lives of the rich, whether true or false.
Lin Keying nodded in thought. Since the situation on the Cheng family was unclear, she could only shift her focus: "Go check Chen's, one of the three major clothing companies in Hong Kong, and investigate all the situations of their family."
When Tang Qiankun arrived, the news Lin Keying heard from Yang Qiuhui was almost the same, with only one difference.
Yang Qiuhui previously worked in a securities company and had some connections in the financial field. She did not find any information about the mainland from the endorsement documents when the Huanyu Group, which was founded by the Cheng family, went public.
Lin Keying knew what was going on, but when Tang Qiankun found out about the Chen family a day later, he was surprised by the family's history of making a fortune.
"Chen's clothing business developed rapidly. With the help of the Cheng family, they quickly opened a company and became famous. According to inquiries, Chen's company was founded twelve years ago."
Twelve years ago?
Lin Keying was sensitive to this number. The wealthy businessman who adopted the original body went to Hong Kong from the mainland fifteen years ago.
It makes sense that he started doing business within two years of landing in Hong Kong.
"But there are also rumors that the Chen family used to have a dyeing workshop and a clothing workshop in Hong Kong City, which may be the predecessor of Chen's Clothing Company." This is the first time Tang Qiankun has encountered this. The past of the Cheng family and the Chen family is a bit foggy, with many versions and difficult to fully verify. "As for the Chen family's old man Chen Guosheng, some Sham Shui Po elders I visited said that their family is an outsider, coming from the mainland, but some people say that they were born and raised in Hong Kong City."
There are many versions of the story, and almost every one of them has its own opinion. Lin Keying can only pin her hope on her only connection in the Chen family, Song Xiujuan, with whom she has a decent relationship.
In the restaurant of Mandarin Hotel, Lin Keying met with Song Xiujuan on the pretext of inviting her out for tea to discuss the in-store promotion of Chen's Clothing in Xitian Building.
The fragrance of the tea filled the air, and a few fresh green buds floated on the water after being brewed. Lin Keying took a sip, her mouth full of fragrance: "Mrs. Chen, Chen's clothing is fashionable and of good quality. Every time I pass by the counter on the second floor of Xitian Building, I always see that your store is crowded with people."
Song Xiujuan naturally liked people praising her business, especially when it was a woman she admired: "Ms. Lin is a good manager. Xitian Building has many customers, so naturally there are many people who come to Chen's to buy clothes."
The two of them were bragging about their business, and the atmosphere was good. Lin Keying mentioned the mainland as if she didn't mean to say, "I wonder if Chen's clothing is sold in the mainland. I heard that the Chen family has some connections with the mainland?"
Song Xiujuan was slightly surprised. Could it be that Miss Lin in front of her knew that her family had escaped from the mainland to Hong Kong more than ten years ago?
There is also a chain of contempt among the wealthy circles in Hong Kong.
The locals always look down on outsiders. Even if they gain a foothold, there will still be people gossiping about them behind their backs.
This is the locals' inherent sense of superiority and sense of crisis about invasion by outsiders.
The Chen family has spent more than ten years and has grown rapidly in Hong Kong City by relying on the Cheng family, into which Yang Lijun's elder sister married.
Naturally, in the business world, they are reluctant to mention that they were from the mainland, so as not to be looked down upon. Over time, it seems to have become a customary practice.
"There is no connection." Song Xiujuan smiled slightly and took a sip of tea.
Lin Keying picked up the teacup and lowered it in the air to indicate, "That's a pity. Chen's clothing exports to the mainland will surely be prosperous. When Mr. Kevin takes over, perhaps he will open up different markets. By the way, I heard that Mr. Kevin has a fiancée? When the wedding is held, Wan Ting and I will definitely go to join in the fun."
Song Xiujuan smiled awkwardly. Why did her nephew have such strange English names? She didn't like English names very much. "You mean Songxian? The fiancée was a thing of the past. Now the engagement is over."
Song Xiujuan did not take Lin Keying's words to heart. After all, Cheng Wanting was asked by Chen Songxian to help solve the child bride issue. It was not surprising that Cheng Wanting's wife knew about it now.
Lin Keying nodded silently. Chen’s eldest grandson is Chen Songxian, so who is Cheng’s brother Songxian?
Of the two Songxian brothers, which one is the one I was looking for in the first place?
But all the investigations have been stumbling. They seem to be about to touch upon the truth, but then a fog of mystery is revealed, making it difficult to understand.
——
At this moment, a fierce quarrel broke out in the Cheng family's old house over Chen Songxian's matter.
Cheng Guanjie has been cleaning up the mess for his son time and again, and in the past month or so, he seems to have aged a lot.
I am really exhausted!
The panic and guilt caused by guilty conscience are so torturous!
After defusing the crisis several times and the situation temporarily stabilized, Cheng Guanjie called his son home alone and said, "You'd better confess to Keying as soon as possible. Do you expect to keep this a secret forever? Impossible!"
The Cheng family and the Chen family have a close relationship and often interact with each other. Besides, they are both in Hong Kong, so they see each other every day. How could they keep it secret forever?
He really didn't want to go through those embarrassing scenes again.
Cheng Wanting didn't care: "We can keep it a secret for as long as we can."
If he didn't have a close relationship with the Chen family and his aunt was married into the Chen family, he really wanted to send the entire Chen family away.
This way, you can keep it secret for a lifetime.
"You are so confused!" Cheng Guanjie is still upset about his son's behavior. How could he do such a thing? "The situation of our family and the Chen family is no secret. It is very likely that Xu Ying will hear at some point that it was the Chen family, not the Cheng family, who came to Hong Kong from the mainland more than ten years ago."
Cheng Wanting was calm and collected: "I have already asked Yang Minghui to arrange for people to spread other stories about the origins of the Chen and Cheng families. It is difficult to tell whether they are true or false."
Cheng Guanjie: "...! You even changed my past?"
Cheng Guanjie's eyes went dark. His good son was full of conspiracies and tricks, but he never used them in the right way!
Cheng Wanting said confidently: "These are just some insignificant little things. How do you expect the outside world to write about your glorious and great history of success? Even if I arrange a journey from the mainland to Hong Kong for you, what's the big deal? It won't hurt you at all."
Cheng Guanjie was so angry that he saw stars.
"Aren't you afraid that the Chen family will let the cat out of the bag in front of Keying?" Cheng Guanjie just wanted to persuade his son to resolve this troublesome matter as soon as possible and not let the entire Cheng family worry about it. "I remember that Song Xiujuan has some relationship with Keying's Xitian Building. Maybe she will blurt it out without paying attention."
"Aunt Song hates it most when rich ladies mention coming from the mainland in front of her. She is very proud and will never leak this information herself." Cheng Wanting was confident and understood people's hearts. "As for Songxian, if she accidentally mentions Chen Songxian, Ke Ying can ask me. It's just a name. I have a plan."
Cheng Guanjie couldn't communicate with this rebellious son. He was so angry that he could only wave his hand and tell him to go away.
"Don't tell me about your troubles. I don't care about them anyway." Cheng Guanjie didn't want to get involved in this matter anymore. He didn't want to be unable to hold his head up for the rest of his life!
Cheng Wanting remained calm and remembered his father's advice as he left in a graceful manner.
How could he possibly take the initiative to speak up? No matter what, he would not allow anything to happen that might threaten their marriage.
......
Lin Keying's private investigation progress has come to a standstill. No matter whether she starts from the Chen family or the Cheng family, she always gets ambiguous answers.
The more this happened, the more unusual it seemed to her.
For now, there is only one last method left to find out the truth.
Using the excuse of going to Hongsheng Entertainment Company to supervise the filming and inspecting the industry at Xitian Building, Lin Keying did not arouse Cheng Wanting's suspicion.
But how could she avoid Cheng Wanting's all-powerful influence and successfully contact and meet him?
Lin Keying, who was sitting in a dessert shop eating red bean paste, finally thought of someone.
Sheng Tielan, who had always been following him as a bodyguard, was summoned out. The woman, who had recovered from her injuries, was agile and even had extremely keen anti-reconnaissance capabilities because she had been in gangs for many years.
Lin Keying asked her to do something: "Tie Lan, please help me contact someone secretly and bring him to see me. This matter must not be known to others, especially my husband."
After spending some time with this cold but capable woman, Lin Keying spoke her mind: "You helped me with this, and the favor of saving my life is cancelled out. You can find a legitimate business or any job somewhere else, and you can leave at any time."
At the beginning, Lin Keying agreed to accept the bodyguard mainly because she wanted to save her life.
How can a woman like this, who is involved in a gang full of violence and has her head tied to her belt all day, ever live a peaceful life?
Sheng Tielan accepted the task, her sharp and cold expression remained unchanged: "I agreed to be Miss Lin's bodyguard, so I will naturally protect your safety all the time."
Lin Keying could only exchange a few words with the taciturn bodyguard before she hurriedly blended into the crowd and disappeared.
It is unclear how Sheng Tielan managed to contact Chen Songxian secretly. In any case, Lin Keying met the man she had not seen since the Chinese New Year on the second floor of an inconspicuous restaurant.
According to Sheng Tielan's report, Chen Songxian was followed by bodyguards in black, and it took her some effort to help Chen Songxian get rid of the two of them.
Sheng Tielan was vigilantly observing around the restaurant as Lin Keying and her husband's cousin, Kevin Chen, were drinking tea.
Chen Songxian was shocked that Lin Keying would contact him privately. He was overjoyed but also secretly worried that his cousin might have said something bad about him in front of her.
Chen Songxian felt uneasy, yet he could finally look greedily and openly at the woman sitting opposite him. His heart was tormented.
"Mr. Chen, I came here today to ask about the sales of your family's clothing in Xitian." Lin Keying raised her glass to greet him, "After all, you were responsible for Chen's clothing entering Xitian, so I think you know it best."
Chen Songxian didn't know whether to be happy or sad. He nodded, tried his best to show his business talent, and racked his brains to analyze the situation with his beloved.
Chen Songxian was sweating profusely as he spoke, and finally pointed out several key points about the sales of Chen's clothing in Xitian Building, but he saw the woman opposite him lowering her eyebrows and eyes, as if she was thinking about something.
"Miss Lin?" Chen Songxian really wanted to call his child bride Keying, but he didn't dare to speak rashly, for fear that people would think he was a playboy.
After beating around the bush for a while, Lin Keying finally spoke tentatively, "Mr. Chen, you and my husband are cousins, so you should call me sister-in-law. I don't know why you are so unwilling to change your words and always call me Miss Lin."
Chen Songxian's heart, which had been bleeding profusely after being stabbed by his cousin, seemed to be bleeding again, and this time, it was his own child bride who stabbed him personally.
The word "husband" is so harsh.
The corners of his mouth trembled as he forced a smile. He was unable to speak and could not find a reasonable reason to explain.
"No...I..." Chen Songxian has never had a strong psychological quality, and he is not like his cousin who can do bad things and still feel justified. At this moment, he wanted to tell the truth and tell Lin Keying that no one was willing to call his child bride sister-in-law.
Lin Keying carefully examined the man's expression, and as she put down her teacup, she continued, "Or does Mr. Chen have a problem with me?"
"No! How could I have any opinion about you!" Chen Songxian found it difficult to express his love.
He didn't dare let Lin Keying think that he was a pervert who coveted her sister-in-law.
Such a pervert would definitely destroy Lin Keying's impression of him, and by then, there would not even be the chance to have such a friendly tea together.
"I, I just think you are younger than me, I can't call you sister-in-law."
"That's true." Lin Keying took in the man's reaction and smiled. "According to age, I should be the one to call you brother."
Chen Songxian suddenly looked up at Lin Keying, and gradually remembered the little girl with two pigtails who followed him and called him Brother Songxian when he was a child in mainland China.
The little girl suddenly turned into her cousin's wife.
After the chat, Chen Songxian paid the bill gentlemanly and went downstairs with Lin Keying. He was very happy that he could avoid his cousin and have a chance to be alone with his sweetheart.
After saying goodbye at the entrance of the restaurant, Chen Songxian heard Lin Keying decline his offer to drive her home, so he could only leave disappointedly: "Ms. Lin, goodbye."
It was a rare time for them to spend together, and Chen Songxian turned around and left with heavy steps.
On the noisy and bustling streets of the downtown, Lin Keying looked at Chen Songxian's lonely back, thinking back to his various behaviors, and finally tried to ask, "Brother Songxian."
The crisp voice coming from behind made Chen Songxian stunned in place. He stopped in his tracks, his heart beating faster than ever before, and he turned around in ecstasy to look at the woman who called him Brother Songxian.
Not sure if it was his own illusion, the woman standing quietly in the crowd only had eyes for him. Chen Songxian could no longer care about anything else and murmured, "Xiaoying..."
Lin Keying narrowed her almond-shaped eyes slightly. She heard the murmurs of her husband's cousin who shouldn't have appeared in her ears, and his expression of shock and surprise. It seemed that she understood everything.
"Ms. Lin, Mr. Cheng is here!" Bodyguard Sheng Tielan observed a luxury car with a license plate under Cheng Wanting's name appear nearby and quickly rushed over to inform him.
Just as he finished speaking, a Rolls-Royce pulled up in front of the restaurant at lightning speed in the dark night.
A man in a suit and tie came rushing over with his black leather shoes tapping on the ground. After getting out of the car, he stood between his wife and cousin, looking at them in silence.
