Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Zhuo interpreted Song Fan’s silence as an affirmation and promptly pulled over a chair to sit beside her, fixing his gaze on the computer screen. Song Fan asked him seriously, “Do you understand any of this?”
Gu Zhuo shook his head. “I don’t understand.”
Song Fan couldn’t help feeling a bit resigned at his response. His intense focus on the screen had given her the impression that he might comprehend some of it.
Nevertheless, she wasn’t overly concerned about whether others understood her work. After all, her programming was just one component, and the final product would come together with Hua Yue’s contributions after extensive practice.
Gu Zhuo, however, changed the topic unexpectedly. He asked, “Sister, do you and Gu Chen have a child?”
This question caught Song Fan off guard. Even Director Zhang and others hadn’t dared to broach the topic so directly. She hadn’t anticipated that Gu Zhuo would ask it so casually.
“No, I don’t,” Song Fan replied honestly.
Gu Zhuo nodded in understanding. “I thought so too. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have gone motorcycle racing.”
Song Fan decided not to delve any further into this matter. She didn’t want to be drawn into the complex dynamics of the Gu Family, especially during this turbulent time.
However, Gu Zhuo had a different perspective. He proceeded to recount everything that had happened during his recent experiences. He sighed and added, “Sister, when your sister saw me today, she immediately inquired about my identity. After I told her, she was like a wolf eyeing its prey. It was unsettling. ”
Song Fan was surprised by Song Yin’s rapid change of target. It appeared that her previous affection for Fu Nian might not have been genuine.
Just then, Song Fan received a call from Song Ting. “Song Fan, please come home after work. Mrs. Fu wishes to meet with you.”
“Mrs. Fu and I don’t seem to have much interaction,” Song Fan replied, somewhat surprised by the request.
Song Ting’s phone call was slightly noisy due to the hospital environment, but he continued speaking with urgency, “Mrs. Fu used to visit the Song Family frequently when you were young, and she had a deep fondness for you. It would be a courteous gesture to visit her.”
Song Fan considered for a moment before agreeing, “I’ll go back tonight.”
If Song Yin had been present, she would have been astounded. It was unimaginable that Song Ting, who used to be quite aloof, was now conversing in such a polite and respectful manner. Changes were occurring quietly in a realm unknown to Song Yin.
As Song Fan prepared to meet Mrs. Fu, she returned home after work to change her clothes. Meanwhile, Song Yin was surprised when she saw Mrs. Fu and approached her in astonishment, “Aunt, are you here to see me?”
Mrs. Fu responded with sincerity, “I’ve come to visit Song Fan. I’ve always visited her since she was a child.”
This response nearly caused Song Yin to lose her composure. She couldn’t comprehend why these people were rallying behind Song Fan. Had they forgotten about Song Fan’s past actions?
Upon suppressing the anger welling up inside her, Song Yin smiled and asked,
“Aunt, are you only interested in seeing Sister and not me?”
Mrs. Fu, still kind to Song Yin, smiled and reassured her, “Of course not, I’ve come to see you too.”
Song Yin feigned a smile and nestled into Mrs. Fu’s arms, pretending to be affectionate like a child. However, her cold, sinister expression betrayed her true feelings.
When Song Fan entered the room and observed Song Yin sitting next to Mrs.
Fu, they appeared remarkably close, almost like mother and daughter. Song Yin even reached out and held Mrs. Fu’s arm, seemingly flaunting their relationship.
However, these actions had no effect. Upon seeing Song Fan, Mrs. Fu immediately stood up and approached her with enthusiasm, embracing her on the sofa.
“Fanfan, why are you dressed like this? Do you not have enough clothes?
Tomorrow, Aunt will take you shopping, alright?” Mrs. Fu exclaimed eagerly.
Song Fan’s attire was wonderful, but Mrs. Fu had a different perspective. In her eyes, a young lady as beautiful as Song Fan should always be dressed in the finest attire. Wearing high-end custom-made clothes every day would not be considered excessive. The casual clothing Song Fan had on didn’t meet her expectations.
Although Song Fan initially considered declining the shopping suggestion, upon noticing Song Yin’s vexed expression behind her, she quickly changed her mind. With a smile, she agreed, “Of course, I’d love to go shopping with Aunt.”
In truth, Song Fan had developed a genuine fondness for Mrs. Fu, primarily due to the sincerity in her eyes and her warm demeanor. In such a situation, her disposition was quite gentle.
Upon having had experience chatting with her godmother, Song Fan soon had Mrs. Fu laughing heartily. The two of them engaged in such an intimate conversation that Song Yin, seated on the side, found it impossible to interject. It was as if she were an outsider in the room..
