Chapter 275 Grandson-in-law
"impossible!"
Song Mo's tone suddenly became agitated, and his eyes turned venomous. "It must be because you're unwilling to let Xiao Rou go, Song Nanxi. You already have everything, why won't you let her go!"
"Let me go see her, Song Nanxi..."
As Song Mo spoke, he was about to come over and grab Song Nanxi.
The short-haired woman stretched out her arm to stop her.
Song Mo said fiercely, "Get out of the way!"
He threw a punch at the woman.
Click!
A chilling sound of bones breaking rang out.
The short-haired woman subdued Song Mo in one move, breaking his arm.
"Sir, please calm down."
Song Mo was pinned to the ground, his arms twisted grotesquely as he struggled, his eyes fixed on Song Nanxi. "Song Nanxi, say something! What else do you want? I have nothing left! I have nothing left!!"
The fall from grace of a prodigy was a devastating blow that clearly exceeded Song Mo's capacity to bear.
Song Nanxi looked back but didn't see anyone she knew coming over.
Since Grandpa Song is in a good mood today, there's no need to let him see any unlucky people.
She said calmly, "I think he's not quite right in the head. Let's take him to the hospital and get his brain checked."
The short-haired woman nodded. "Okay."
She made a gesture, and immediately two men came out and took Song Mo from her hands.
Looking at Song Mo's appearance, Song Nanxi felt no emotion.
I felt neither pleased nor saddened.
The only thing that surprised her was that Song Mo actually had genuine feelings for Song Yirou.
Having broken free from the allure of the "Most Popular System," Song Mo is probably the only one who hasn't given up on Song Yirou to this day.
Unfortunately, Song Mo was unaware that, to Song Yirou, he was merely a backup option.
Having stayed outside long enough, Song Nanxi returned to the private room and found that Shi Lou had actually arrived.
She raised an eyebrow, asking with her eyes.
Shi Lou stood up and said apologetically, "Miss Song, I originally planned to just say hello and leave..."
Grandpa Song said, "I asked Xiaolou to stay. Why did you go out for so long? Did something happen?"
"No."
Song Nanxi pulled out a chair and sat down, finding Old Master Song's behavior amusing.
It's rare to see him like a junior; let him be.
As soon as she sat down, Song Yang leaned in with a cheeky grin and asked, "Cousin, is this Shi Lou your boyfriend too?"
Song Nanxi glanced at him, "Are you curious?"
Song Yang nodded and chuckled; he was just too curious!
At this moment, Grandpa Song called out, "Nanxi, what are you and Xiaoyang chatting about? You seem so happy."
Song Yang immediately shut up, put his hands together, and bowed to Song Nanxi.
Song Nanxi lazily lifted her eyes. "It's nothing—Song Yang just asked me if this Shi Lou is me—"
"Ahhh, cousin!!"
Song Yang interrupted Song Nanxi in a fit of rage, staring in disbelief. She just blurted it out so sweetly?!
"Hmm? What is it?" Old Master Song asked in confusion.
Everyone in the private room looked at Song Nanxi.
Song Nanxi shrugged. "Oh, it's nothing. He just asked if Shi Lou was my friend."
Song Yang: "..." Damn it!
Shi Lou's gaze was slightly surprised. Across the dining table, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the woman's wicked smile.
He inexplicably felt that Song Yang's question shouldn't have been that.
"You child..." Old Master Song chuckled, "Xiao Lou is being too polite, calling her Miss Song is too formal, just call her by her name."
Shi Lou looked at Song Nanxi.
Seeing that Song Nanxi seemed indifferent.
He smiled and readily agreed, saying softly, "Okay, then I'll be called Nanxi from now on."
"Hey! That's more like it!"
Grandpa Song patted him on the shoulder and clinked glasses with him, "Come on, let's have a drink."
Song Nanxi casually reminded him, "Grandpa, this is the last cup."
His tone was languid, yet brooked no argument.
Old Master Song looked embarrassed, thinking he could drink more today.
Shi Lou raised his wine glass with both hands. "Grandpa Song, if you want to drink, I'll join you next time."
That's how they cheered up Grandpa Song again.
After the meal, Grandpa Song told Song Hong and Song Lan to book their own rooms and not to bother him at the small building unless necessary.
They looked embarrassed, but they were helpless to obey Old Master Song's orders.
We have no choice but to do as instructed.
Butler Bai took Old Master Song back to rest, leaving only Song Nanxi and Shi Lou at the door.
After the New Year, the temperature plummeted, and a cold snap began.
Shi Lou subtly shielded himself from the cold wind, looking down at the woman with her hands in her pockets and a relaxed and casual expression.
Every time I see her, she seems to be different, which makes me really curious about which side is the real her.
"Isn't Young Master Shi leaving?"
Shi Lou lowered his gaze slightly. "Miss Song, just call me by my name."
Song Nanxi nodded casually, it was unclear whether she had taken it all in.
"May I call Miss Song by her name?"
Song Nanxi glanced at him in surprise, "Whatever you want."
Shi Lou chuckled, "Nanxi."
"Just say what you want to say. This is quite frightening, you know that?" Song Nanxi didn't like dealing with overly serious people, and if it was someone involved in politics, she would prefer to keep her distance.
There's nothing we can do about it; these kinds of people have too many hidden agendas in their minds.
trouble.
Shi Lou's smile froze, and then he said helplessly, "I don't think I've offended Nanxi except for the Tai family incident last time."
“I haven’t offended you, I just don’t like dealing with you political types,” Song Nanxi said, letting Shi Lou shield her from the wind. “I should be able to tell that my grandfather likes you a lot, but if you’re thinking of getting something from him, I advise you to give up that idea as soon as possible.”
Song Nanxi got straight to the point.
The main reason is that Grandpa Song is growing to like Shi Lou more and more.
Shi Lou was speechless.
He admitted that he is indeed someone who likes to act from a self-interested perspective in everything he does.
Having been in this position, I've long been used to carefully considering every word I say.
However, he still felt somewhat wronged because of Song Nanxi's blunt prejudice.
“I didn’t want anything from Grandpa Song. He’s a very open-minded and kind old man,” Shi Lou insisted on explaining, his voice slightly deep, regardless of whether Song Nanxi believed him or not. “If I had to say what I wanted, I would say I wanted to please you. Does that count?”
Behind the glasses, the man looked directly into Song Nanxi's eyes, his gaze clear and calm.
“Sure—” Song Nanxi’s gaze swept across his face, and she said in a natural, narcissistic tone, “Trying to please me, not surprising.”
Shi Lou: "..."
He chuckled. "So, Miss Song... no, Nanxi, you believe me?"
"It's not a matter of believing or not believing, but I suggest you visit my grandfather less often in the future."
Shi Lou frowned. Did Song Nanxi still not believe that he meant no harm?
Then Song Nanxi added casually, "I don't believe you can't tell that my grandfather treats you as his grandson-in-law."
"I..." Shi Lou was stunned. He really didn't see it, but recalling Old Master Song's eyes and words, he belatedly realized that what Song Nanxi said might be true.
His ears suddenly turned red.
