Chapter 26
Song Ningshuang’s stern face immediately became relaxed.
She stood up and held Chi Wan’s hand affectionately. Her eyes were filled with love for her.
“Auntie came here today to talk about your engagement with Song Ci.”
…
Chi Wan’s body stiffened and her sweet smile disappeared.
Could it be that the Song family wanted Chi Wei to be with Brother Song? Did they think that she was no longer a good match for him?
“Auntie…”
Chi Wan was about to burst out in tears at any given second.
Song Ningshuang did not realize what Chi Wan was thinking. After all, Wanwan had always been an optimistic person and tended to act coy around her.
Now that the matter was settled, Song Ningshuang thought that Chi Wan was still acting coy. She patted Chi Wan’s hand.
“Your aunt insisted that arranged marriage depends on you, Song Ci, and Chi Wei’s opinions. However, I think that you and Song Ci are a match made in heaven. Be it in your studies or hobbies, the both of you share so much in common and have a bright future ahead.”
“Chi Wei? Do you think Song Ci would want to be a farmer and raise chickens?”
Song Ningshuang sneered as she thought about the ridiculous scene.
Many people wanted to marry into the Song family, but they were not worthy.
…
Chi Wan was stunned for a moment.
She quickly tried to suppress the smile on her face. Then, she lowered her head obediently and said shyly, “Oh no, I have to listen to whatever the elders say.”
Chi Wan had just tacitly agreed with Song Ningshuang’s words.
Qiao Yuechu’s eyes were about to spew fire.
She clenched her fists.
So, her poor daughter was dumped just like that? No, Chi Wei should dump Song Ci first!
Everyone was immersed in their own thoughts.
Then, the door opened once again.
They all looked up and as expected, it was Chi Wei. She slowly walked over.
Song Ningshuang gazed at her from head to toe.
“She’s quite exquisite.”
The middle-aged woman smiled lightly.
Old Madam Chi chimed in, “She only looks good. In other aspects, she’s nothing but a fool. She’s also not as obedient as Wanwan.”
Their voices were not lowered, as if they did not mind that Chi Wei would hear them.
Chi Wei was too lazy to even lift her eyelids.
She had other things to do.
…
Seeing that Chi Wei was about to bypass them and head upstairs, Song Ningshuang could no longer conceal the disdain on her face. She casually picked up a gift box from the side and gently opened it.
In the box, there was an exquisite bracelet.
However, it only looks splendid on the surface. People who had been wealthy all their lives like Old Madam Chi, Qiao Yuechu, and even Chi Wan, could tell at a single glance that the materials used to make the bracelet was of inferior quality.
The diamond was a combination of other broken diamonds and the craftsmanship looked very crude.
It was obviously used to make light of people.
Song Ningshuang did not think that there was anything wrong with it. She took another sip of tea and said calmly, “Weiwei, this is a gift from Auntie Song to you as a form of compensation. In the future, don’t ever pester Song Ci again, okay?”
“You’re from the countryside. You’ve never seen such beautiful jewelry, have you?”
“…”
“Who are you?”
