Chapter 28 Chapter 28 No Expectations
Song Yuqiao looked at Song Yuxuan with a cold look that made people feel cold all over.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
Song Yuxuan's smile froze. He hurriedly opened the car door, took out an exquisite food box, and took a few steps forward.
His eyebrows curved, and his expression became much more natural. "Brother, I heard from Father that you've been busy lately. I can't help you with your worries. I can only cook a little, so I specially cooked chicken soup for you to nourish your body."
He spoke sincerely and tried to show his goodwill, but Song Yuqiao was not moved at all, and had no intention of letting him in. He was only impatient that the person in front of him did not understand what he was saying.
His cold eyes swept over the face that looked somewhat similar to his. "No need. Next time, if it's not something important, you don't have to come here specially."
"No."
The smile on Song Yuxuan's face broke.
He didn't offend Song Yuqiao. After all, they were brothers. Why should he be so ruthless?
He couldn't feel at ease if he couldn't go in and see what was going on.
He gritted his teeth, chased after him, and stopped Song Yuqiao. He looked up with an aggrieved expression on his face, "Brother, what did I do wrong that you are so cold and indifferent to me?"
When he looked up, he saw from a closer distance that there was a barely noticeable kiss mark on the edge of Song Yuqiao's shirt collar.
As far as he knew, Song Yuqiao was not dating anyone, so his mind raced and many guesses came to his mind.
Song Yuqiao said coldly: "It seems that I don't need to attend the banquet on Saturday."
If Song Yuqiao did not attend the banquet, others would think that Song Yuqiao did not value this newly found brother and would look down on him.
On the contrary, Song Yuxuan will not only gain the respect of others, but also obtain more resources.
He looked at Song Yuqiao's cold face, lowered his head in frustration, and had to make way for him. "Sorry, I came here without permission today and disturbed my brother."
Song Yuqiao walked straight past him.
Song Yuxuan stared at his slowly disappearing back, his face full of unwillingness. Suddenly, he looked up at the second-floor window sharply and caught a glimpse of a figure. The figure quickly passed by and seemed to hide behind the curtains and disappeared. He could only vaguely see that the person was probably a man.
He withdrew his gaze and turned away.
Song Yuqiao was not dating anyone, but this was just information he had gathered. He believed what he saw more than what he had gathered.
I guess the person I just saw was Song Yuqiao’s secret partner.
When living with your partner, it is impossible for him to let Song Jianan, an outsider, live in the house.
After closing the car door, the corners of his lips curled up, and the loss and unwillingness he had just felt disappeared temporarily.
However, he soon realized that Song Yuqiao must have more than one property. As long as Song Yuqiao was willing, he could give one to Song Jianan to live in, or simply give it to him.
Song Yuxuan held the steering wheel, his eyes fixed on the congested road ahead, his expression solemn.
Even if he knew all of Song Yuqiao's properties, it would be impossible for him to search for them one by one. It would be best for him to go back to Zhang's house and find out everything.
But it is absolutely impossible for him to return to the Zhang family with disgust and hatred.
He gripped the steering wheel so hard that his long, beautiful hands formed a hideous bulge.
He actually wanted to contact that person urgently to get the latest information about the Zhang couple, but he quickly suppressed this impulse.
He hadn't established himself in the Song family yet, so it was best not to contact that person right now. Otherwise, if his family found out about what he was doing, it would be bad for him. Even if this matter was insignificant to the Song family, he had to proceed with caution.
He slowly loosened his grip and let out a light breath.
Forget it, how Song Jianan lives has nothing to do with him. As long as he doesn't appear in the sight of his father and grandfather and doesn't steal his things again, he will turn a blind eye and is too lazy to waste his energy on him.
Anyway, after leaving the Song family, even if Song Jianan did not return to the Song family to live the life he should have, even if he had Song Yuqiao's protection, how long could Song Yuqiao protect him?
Song Yuqiao will get married sooner or later. Once a married person has a partner, how can he or she carefully protect an outsider?
Without Song Yuqiao's protection, Zhang Peng and his wife would just be like leeches lying on him at any time, sucking his blood endlessly.
No matter what, Song Jianan could not escape his fate.
Song Yuxuan comforted himself in this way, but he could not ignore the unwillingness and resentment in his heart.
Song Jianan had robbed him of his original happiness, and he had suffered for Song Jianan for over twenty years in vain. Now that everything had returned to its original state, why should Song Jianan still be free? Even if it was only for a moment, he thought it was extremely unfair!
He had helped Song Jianan through the most difficult times, so shouldn't Song Jianan have continued to live on? Why should he be given a chance to breathe and relax?
Who will allow him to take a break when he needs it most?
Song Yuxuan's emotions were surging, and he ran a red light without paying attention, almost hitting another car. He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
He came to his senses and realized that he had been obsessed with something and was feeling lucky that he hadn't hit anyone.
*
After Song Jianan went upstairs, he absentmindedly put away his schoolbag and waited anxiously.
But he had no idea what was happening outside, or whether Song Yuxuan had left. The more he waited blindly, the more he fell into endless anxiety.
He was so anxious that he bit his nails and didn't even notice that his legs were shaking slightly, as if he was too nervous.
My mind was in a mess and I had no idea what to do.
What if Song Yuxuan doesn't want to leave? Song Yuxuan is Song Yuqiao's younger brother, and Song Yuqiao will definitely not make things difficult for Song Yuxuan for him.
He stood up suddenly and decided to sneak to the window to take a look. Only when he saw it with his own eyes would he feel at ease.
He pulled the curtain over himself, leaving one eye peeking out.
He saw Song Yuxuan stepped forward to stop Song Yuqiao. The two of them talked about something. Song Yuqiao came back and Song Yuxuan did not move forward.
He felt a little relieved, but still did not let his guard down. He stared at Song Yuxuan nervously until he saw him leave.
Unexpectedly, Song Yuxuan seemed to have noticed him and suddenly looked up at him. He was so scared that he hurriedly hid behind the curtains, covering his pounding chest and not daring to look again.
After waiting for a few minutes, he was hesitating whether to take another look when Song Yuqiao pushed the door open and saw him peeking in.
"Jia Jia."
The sudden sound startled Song Jianan. Turning around and seeing it was him, he patted his chest, which was heaving violently. Then he hurried forward and asked, "Is he gone? Will he come back suddenly?"
Song Yuqiao held his hand, and the slightly cool palm and soothing eyes gradually calmed Song Jianan's heart.
"He won't come again."
Song Yuxuan looks weak, but he is actually very arrogant. If you run into a wall with him, it's okay once or twice, but there will never be a third time.
Furthermore, Song Boqian wouldn't allow it. He was still counting on Song Yuxuan to share power. A moderate setback for Song Yuxuan would only make him more receptive. If Song Yuxuan were allowed to try repeatedly, and if he accidentally succeeded and alienated him, wouldn't that mean his plan would be in vain?
However, Song Yuqiao didn't intend to say these.
Song Jianan was delighted, "Really?"
He couldn't help but go back to the window and secretly looked out. As expected, he didn't see Song Yuxuan, and the car that had just parked in front of the villa had also driven away.
He suddenly relaxed and his body felt a little weak. He quickly held on to the wall to slow down.
After Song Yuxuan left, Song Jianan lost his appetite. Since he had almost finished eating, he put on his schoolbag and prepared to go back to school for class.
Song Yuqiao followed behind him, and he remembered that Song Yuqiao said he would take him to school, and his pace slowed down unconsciously.
After thinking about it for a long time, he was about to leave the villa when he tightened his bag strap and turned around and said, "Brother, the driver can just take me there. You... probably have a lot of things waiting for you to take care of at the company, so you don't have to take me there."
Song Yuqiao only said four words lightly: "I'll give it to you on the way."
Song Jianan didn't understand how someone could lie without blinking. He twisted the strap of his schoolbag around his fingertips, lowered his head, and couldn't help but whispered back, "But your company and my school are not in the same direction."
Song Yuqiao remained calm and said, "I have to go out for an inspection this afternoon and happened to pass by Yunjing University."
As she spoke, she walked forward, took his hand, and led him out.
Song Jianan secretly glanced at his profile, feeling a little doubtful. Was he really going out to inspect the work?
But since Song Yuqiao said so, Song Jianan couldn't find a better reason to refuse him, and was also worried that Song Yuqiao would be angry, so he could only get in the car. At worst, he could stay away from him after getting in the car.
Just now at home, because of a little cream incident and Song Yuxuan's sudden appearance, Song Yuqiao didn't have time to say some things, so he said in the car: "Jia Jia, I can't take you to Yuhai for fun this week. I have something to do on Saturday, and I have to go to Linzhou on a business trip on Sunday."
His calm gaze fell on Song Jianan, worried that he would be sad because he couldn't go out to play, and said: "I will ask my assistant to arrange time next week and I will definitely take you out to play."
When Jiajia was little, he once promised to take him to the amusement park on the weekend, but his grandfather suddenly assigned him a new task, which just took up the time he and Jiajia had agreed on.
That time he failed to fulfill his promise, and Jiajia was depressed for many days.
But he forgot that Song Jianan was no longer the same as before.
When Song Jianan was young, he trusted his brother and had expectations, so he felt lost when his expectations were not met.
Without expectations, how can there be disappointment and sadness?
Besides, Song Jianan had completely forgotten that he had said this. When he heard him mention it, some doubts appeared in his dark eyes. He only grasped the key information that Song Yuqiao was very busy on Saturdays and Sundays. He nodded in agreement regardless of what he promised.
He secretly thought to himself that in addition to reviewing on Saturdays and Sundays, he could find some part-time jobs that paid daily. It didn't matter if the money was a little, as long as he didn't get discovered by Song Yuqiao, and some income was enough.
The internship Song Yuqiao offered him paid a high salary, but who would complain about having too much money? The more money he saved, the better.
Not only did Song Yuqiao not see any disappointment on his face, but he could see that he had completely forgotten about this matter, and his face looked indescribably ugly for a moment.
Song Jianan was thinking about his own things and didn't notice his abnormality at all.
