An uninvited guest arrived during dinner that evening.
As soon as Song Wan entered the room, she went to Quan Ye's side and affectionately took his arm. "Ah Ye, look who I brought here?"
When Quan Ye saw Shen Linfeng, his dark eyes were like a sharp knife, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.
Shen Linfeng looked at the people at the table, lowered his head slightly, and said, "Sorry I'm late."
"Peng—"
Quan Lang threw a rice bowl at him, slammed his hand on the table, and stood up. "You wretched child, how dare you come back? You've disgraced our family!"
Shen Linfeng was hit squarely on the forehead, but dared not complain. "Father, please don't be angry."
"Shut up! You did such a shameful thing, I'll beat you to death today!"
Quan Lang tried to pick up a chair, but his anger overwhelmed him, and he suddenly started coughing violently.
The servants nearby rushed over to help him up.
Being reprimanded in front of outsiders left Shen Linfeng feeling both embarrassed and awkward.
Quanbing seized the opportunity to say, "Linfeng, what you did was really bad. Your father is in poor health, and you're willing to upset him like this."
"Uncle, Second Uncle, I really didn't mean it. Someone must have framed me."
Quanbing: "Why would they frame you instead of others? It must be because you did something wrong and offended someone. Linfeng, now that your elder brother has brought you back, you are now the young master of our Quan family. You should be careful about your words and actions when you are out in the world. Don't let others say that you grew up outside and are an uneducated bastard."
Shen Linfeng knew he was in the wrong and could not refute it.
He raised his head cautiously to look at Quan Ye. Since the head of the family hadn't spoken, he was very flustered.
Seeing this, Song Wan pulled Quan Ye and said, "Ah Ye, Lin Feng knows he was wrong, so why don't we forgive him for now? There are still guests here."
Quan Ye, mindful of Fu Zelian's presence, refrained from making things difficult for Shen Linfeng.
How did you end up with him?
Song Wan: "I ran into Young Master Shen on the way. I heard that President Fu was here today, so I thought I'd come over and say hello too. Anyway, we'll meet again at the wedding, so it's good to get to know each other first."
Quan Ye: "You've got a good idea."
Shen Linfeng was taken away by the bodyguards and made to reflect on his actions by facing the wall.
Song Wan stood up with her wine glass in hand and took the initiative to come to Fu Zelian's side. "President Fu, I have long heard of your great reputation. Today I finally meet you. Let me toast you."
Fu Zelian toasted her and took a small sip.
“And Mrs. Fu.” She then turned to Ye Shi, “We met in a video last time, and today we finally have the chance to meet you in person. You are even more beautiful than in the video.”
Ye Shi smiled awkwardly but politely, "I don't drink alcohol, so I'll use tea instead."
"It's alright, we're all on the same side."
After finishing her drink, Song Wan returned to Quan Ye's side and began to chat with Fu Zelian about work.
This posture made it clear that she regarded herself as the mistress of the Quan family.
Ye Shi found it all very strange, so she secretly took out her phone and sent a message to Su Li.
*
'I'm at the Quan family's house right now, and I saw Master Quan and Song Wan together. Are they really getting married?'
Su Li had just lain down when she received a message from Ye Shi.
Ye Shi also posted a photo of Song Wan and Quan Ye sitting there chatting.
She stared at it for a long time, tapping the chat box lightly with her finger, unsure of what to say.
In the end, she said nothing, silently placed her phone on the bedside table, closed her eyes, and went to sleep.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but in her dazed state, she felt someone lie down next to her.
A large hand hooked around her waist, pulling him into his arms.
A faint aroma of alcohol lingered in the air.
