Jiang Liuyue's main strategy was to speak little.
But when a fight broke out, she followed up instantly.
Song Tianqi was so angry he couldn't speak for a long while.
Lin Mei suddenly glanced at her son, Lin Yizhou, signaling him to smooth things over.
The harsh screech of a chair being pushed back rang out.
Everyone's eyes fell on Lin Yizhou.
He pursed his lips, his handsome face full of self-blame and guilt. Lowering his head, he said softly,
"I'm sorry, Dad."
Then he turned his head slightly and bowed in Song Hanzheng's direction.
"I'm sorry, Brother."
"It's all my fault."
Song Hanzheng glared at Lin Mei in displeasure.
It was like this every time.
No matter what caused the argument, they always ended up making the younger one come out and apologize.
Seeing this, Song Tianqi naturally felt bad for his younger son.
He hurriedly comforted him,
"Yizhou, it's your brother who speaks nonsense. You didn't do anything wrong."
"Hurry and sit down. You haven't been back in the country for long, how could any of this be your fault?"
Song Hanzheng also stood up.
The sound of his chair dragging backward was even more grating.
He tilted his head to look at the people by the dining table, his posture somewhat rebellious and untamed.
"Right, your youngest son is perfect in every way."
"Take your time eating."
With that, he grabbed Jiang Liuyue's hand to leave.
Li Feile was the most anxious one. She quickly stood up as well and said, "Brother Hanzheng, I'll leave with you."
Song Hanzheng sneered.
"Leave where?"
"Aren't you quite capable, hooking up with him?" He pointed at Lin Yizhou and added, "Why would you leave with me?"
Li Feile's eyes flickered.
Her gaze then fell on Jiang Liuyue, and she pursed her lips.
She didn't want the other woman to know the fact that Song Hanzheng had been completely ignoring her lately.
She gave a bitter smile and said,
"Brother Hanzheng, I know I've gone a bit too far recently."
"I know I was wrong."
She then looked at Jiang Liuyue and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry. Last time, it was a prop prepared by the stagehand. I didn't expect it to be hot water."
Great.
Today was all about a group apology tour.
Lin Yizhou asked in confusion, "What hot water?"
Li Feile played dead and stayed silent.
Jiang Liuyue said concisely, "While filming on set, she splashed hot water on me."
The way the others looked at Li Feile changed.
That was ruthless.
Li Feile anxiously explained, "That was an accident."
"Enough, let's go." Song Hanzheng was getting impatient and pulled Jiang Liuyue a few steps toward the door.
Song Tianqi didn't stop them.
Lin Mei's lips moved a few times, and she glanced at Lin Yizhou again but said nothing.
However, Li Feile chased them outside for a few steps.
"Brother Hanzheng, are you really going to ignore me?"
Song Hanzheng's footsteps didn't stop.
Behind him, Li Feile's voice carried a hint of a sob as she whispered,
"But you clearly promised my brother you would take good care of me. I had a nightmare last night, dreaming of that day's scene again..."
Song Hanzheng's footsteps halted.
Jiang Liuyue was standing close and saw a flash of sympathy in his eyes.
So, Song Hanzheng took such good care of Li Feile all because of her brother?
Seeing him stop, Li Feile felt there was hope.
Her eyes reddened, and she lowered her head, blaming herself,
"I know my temper is really bad, but I can't control it."
"I didn't do it on purpose. I saw a doctor, and you know I'm taking medication. I know I'm terrible."
"If my brother were still here, he would hate me too if he saw what I've become..."
Song Hanzheng fell silent.
He seemed to be reminded of something as well.
The temperature of his voice softened slightly when he spoke.
"Reign in your temper."
"Don't embarrass your brother!"
Li Feile nodded repeatedly and whispered, "I know, I know."
After saying that, she looked at Song Hanzheng hopefully.
"Brother Hanzheng, can you accompany me to visit my brother tomorrow?"
"I dreamed about him again."
Song Hanzheng's eyes flickered.
After a long moment.
"Alright."
The smile on Li Feile's face became a bit more genuine.
She also tactfully refrained from provoking Jiang Liuyue.
Giving a slight nod.
"Okay, Brother Hanzheng, see you tomorrow."
With that, she quickly walked past them and left the mansion alone.
Jiang Liuyue sensed that this was probably a secret concerning the relationship between Song Hanzheng and Li Feile.
She didn't take the initiative to expose it.
Once in the car.
Song Hanzheng was somewhat dissatisfied.
"You're not professional."
Jiang Liuyue was taken aback for a moment, then realized he meant she hadn't caused much of a scene tonight.
She gave an awkward yet polite smile.
And started blowing smoke.
"That's because your combat power was too strong. I didn't even have a chance to perform."
"Honestly, even five more of your dad wouldn't be enough for you to fight!"
Hearing the praise, Song Hanzheng wasn't as pleased as he usually would be.
His expression was somewhat indifferent.
His face also bore a rare trace of exhaustion.
He rubbed the space between his eyebrows.
He instructed the driver to take Jiang Liuyue home.
Meanwhile, he pulled open the car door and got out.
"Song Han, where are you going?" Seeing this, Jiang Liuyue also moved to get out.
His broad arm blocked the exit, and he said calmly, "I want to be alone for a while."
Then he closed the car door again.
Jiang Liuyue knew that at times like this, you absolutely couldn't just leave.
This was his most vulnerable moment.
Watching Song Hanzheng's lonely figure walking down the street.
Jiang Liuyue leaned forward and said to the driver, "Sir, don't take me home yet. Drive slowly and follow behind him."
The driver gave a sound of agreement.
Song Hanzheng walked slowly down the wide road.
The black Maybach followed unhurriedly behind him.
After a while, he caught sight of it in his peripheral vision and made a gesture, causing the car to stop.
The car window slowly rolled down.
Song Hanzheng was somewhat irritated and said unhappily,
"What are you doing? Didn't I tell you to take her back?"
The driver didn't dare to breathe too loudly. He pointed to the back, his voice growing smaller.
"Miss Jiang said to have the car follow you..."
Song Hanzheng's gaze fell on the back seat.
Jiang Liuyue didn't look guilty in the slightest. She even waved her hand and said,
"I'm full and want to digest my food. Can we take a walk together?"
Song Hanzheng twitched the corner of his lips.
He felt somewhat speechless.
They were busy arguing the whole time just now, when did they even eat?
But now that she mentioned it, he actually felt a bit hungry.
Taking advantage of his hesitation, Jiang Liuyue immediately hopped out of the car, walked briskly up to him, and naturally grabbed his arm.
"Let's go, let's go. The weather is nice today, we can even admire the moonlight."
She pointed at the sky.
In the hazy night sky, a full moon radiating a pale glow hung in midair.
Song Hanzheng glanced at her.
He retorted,
"You are a really strange person."
Jiang Liuyue curled her lips into a light smile and looked at him.
"You're quite strange too."
Song Hanzheng was confused: "..."
Jiang Liuyue's cheesy pickup lines came right out.
"Strangely handsome."
Song Hanzheng was a bit speechless.
Yet he also found it somewhat amusing.
An unnatural smile appeared at the corners of his lips, but he quickly reined it in.
"Jiang Liuyue." He looked at her, his eyes very serious, and suddenly asked, "Have you thought about what I told you last time?"
What did he say last time?
Oh.
He would be her sugar daddy.
Time flew so fast; the three days were up.
