Chapter 655: Scheming

Translator: Yunyi

It was just that…

Everyone could understand that she was feeling guilty. Most of the people present were mothers. However, if she did not handle this situation well, she would not be able to rest at home!

Zhou Manli opened her mouth and watched helplessly as Song Jingwan ran away.

For a moment, she started to doubt herself. Did I really do something wrong?

“Mom…”

At this moment, Song Weiwei quickly pushed Zhou Manli. “Go and take a look. I’m fine.”

This sentence immediately won everyone’s favor. Compared to the younger daughter who was sensible, the older daughter was too overbearing and willful.

She had been roaming the outside world for more than ten years with no one to love her. Couldn’t she enjoy the love of her parents when she came back?

Even Song Rui couldn’t help but look up to Song Weiwei, this bonus daughter of his.

The rims of Song Weiwei’s eyes and nose were red. She grinned at Zhou Manli. “I’m really fine. Mom, hurry up and look for Sister. This place is so big. What if she’s in danger?”

“Sigh…why is your sister so insensible!”

Zhou Manli sighed and patted her shoulder. “I’ll get someone to look for her. Let’s go. Mom will bring you to change first.”

When they attended a banquet, they would usually bring a set of spare clothes just in case. If they were accidentally stained with wine, they could also change in time.

“But Sister, she…”

“Alright, don’t worry so much! Let’s go!”

“Alright.” Song Weiwei was pulled by Zhou Manli. She timidly said to Song Rui, “Dad, you have to get someone to look for Sister later.”

Song Rui patted her head. “Good girl, go ahead.”

Song Weiwei blushed shyly and bowed slightly to the crowd. “I’m sorry to have made a fool of myself.”

The farce ended very quickly.

“This girl is very lovable and sensible.”

“I think so too. She’s not calculative and she’s so pitiful.”

“Haha, I like this girl. I wonder if she has a boyfriend? President Song, do you mind being in-laws?”

These words were just teasing, but it made Song Rui realize that perhaps this daughter of his wasn’t so useless after all.

…

Song Jingwan left the banquet hall and walked aimlessly.

She did not know where she was going. Her face was burning with pain. She was slapped in public by her biological mother, and her friends were among the onlookers.

She wiped away her tears with hatred and added another grudge against Song Weiwei.

Would her mother come to look for her? She would, right?

Song Jingwan turned her head and looked back.

The truth was, her reaction was intentional. She wasn’t completely irrational due to her anger.

Back there, even her biological parents didn’t believe her, let alone others.

Song Jingwan could only admit that she was unlucky. If she didn’t say anything, everyone would definitely think that she was jealous and couldn’t tolerate Song Weiwei. But now that she made her accusations, she could still attract a wave of sympathy and resonance. She wanted everyone to know that she was not targeting Song Weiwei.

She was just taking the opportunity to vent her dissatisfaction at being ignored by her parents.

No one was an idiot. If Song Weiwei took this opportunity to show off and enjoy Zhou Manli’s undivided attention, then her clumsy act would be seen through very quickly!

Song Jingwan let out a breath and rubbed her face.

She was walking with her head lowered when she almost bumped into someone.

“Be careful…”

The boy’s voice was clear and clean. In such a night, it was like a breeze that washed away her impetuous heart.

Song Jingwan looked up shyly. In the next second, both parties were stunned.

“Why is it you?”

Her expression changed as she narrowed her eyes to size up An Feiran.
