Chapter 238: Chapter 238: Speaking Without Investigation_1

Song Yunuan’s eyes twinkled faintly.

Old Mr. Hu and the others still underestimated the degree of malice in people’s hearts.

Xia Bowen thought he controlled everything, but it was all just a facade.

He couldn’t control Shangguan Yunqi, who harbored malicious intentions.

Of course, if it weren’t for that night, it’s likely that the two children would still be missing now.

You could say that there’s a divine will at play in the mysteries of fate.

Deputy County Mayor Zhao had arranged lunch on the other side.

Song Mingsheng, the little tail, sat in his chair, happily eating the fish and tender ribs his sister picked for him.

It’s great to follow his sister.

He wondered when he would be able to help his sister.

Well, if he couldn’t help with the work, at least he could help by eating good food.

Asheng chewed with bulging cheeks, savoring the taste.

He looked up and saw several sneaky figures in the distance.

It turned out to be Liu Wen and Luo Zhiwu and their group.

There was a large private dining room in the cafeteria, located on the first floor. Asheng happened to be sitting by the window, and looking up he could see three people standing beside the guard post, peering towards the guesthouse.

The canvas bags they were carrying looked bulging, as if none had been sold.

Asheng tugged at Song Yunuan’s clothes and whispered, "Sister, look at those three people outside the window, aren’t they looking for you?"

Song Yunuan looked out and saw it was indeed those few people.

Meanwhile, at the dining table, Song Liang had lost his earlier restraint.

Deputy County Mayor Zhao and Old Shang treated Song Liang especially warmly.

Song Liang gradually gained confidence as well.

Therefore, eating together felt very natural.

Sometimes, Song Liang felt as if he were dreaming.

In the past, he couldn’t even speak to Deputy County Mayor Zhao, let alone dine with him.

But now they were able to eat and chat together.

Life is truly full of uncertainties.

Song Yunuan saw her father handling himself with ease. She stood up and said, "Someone outside is looking for me, I’ll be right back."

Old Mr. Hu glanced outside and remarked, "Oh, it’s Little Luo and the others."

Song Yunuan said, "I guess it’s because their image is not very good, so the girls are afraid to buy hair ornaments from them. I’ll go have a look."

At the same time, Qin Zhong and Xue Min, after much deliberation, decided they should still have a talk with Song Yunuan.

After all, they had seen Song Yunuan in the company of several disreputable young men that morning.

And they looked very close at first glance.

If people in the compound saw it, it would certainly not sound good.

And that’s not all.

If Old Mr. Hu found out and became angry, perhaps displacing his anger onto them, how wronged would they be?

Qin Zhong rather regretted going to the Education Center to find Old Mr. Hu.

He also felt some resentment towards Lu Zhenguo, who jumped to conclusions without investigating thoroughly, ending up in disgrace and embarrassment.

He didn’t get a single word of praise even from Old Mr. Zheng.

Initially, Old Mr. Hu was unaware of the relationship between their two families.

But now that he knew, there was a connection.

If Song Yunuan didn’t turn out well, wouldn’t it be his duty to intervene?

Then he took Xue Min with him.

They also told Qin Siqi what they were planning to do.

Qin Siqi said, "The reason Song Yunuan keeps coming to the provincial city is that she can’t bear to leave. No one knows by what means she managed to stay. Those young men she’s with have a questionable air about them; they’re surely not good people. We should tell Song Yunuan not to associate with them in the future."

Qin Zhong learned from Lu Feng that Song Yunuan was staying at the Education Commission guesthouse.

By the time Song Yunuan went out to meet these few people, the two of them were already standing at the main entrance.

They then saw Song Yunuan chatting and laughing with the three young men.

Xue Min got angry.

How could she not have any self-respect?

How did she become like this?

Recognizing one person here, another there, as if she were so capable.

She was so much more trouble-free at home.

He had returned to Erdao River just a few days ago, but somehow he had completely changed.

Xue Min’s face had already turned iron blue, and she marched over here furiously.

Song Yunuan really hadn’t seen the two of them.

She was facing away from Qin Zhong and Xue Min.

Song Yunuan was scolding three people.

"Your hair and your clothes, in actuality, those are not the main issues," she said.

Now wasn’t the era of wearing sunglasses, flouncy shirts, and bell-bottoms to sweep the streets (figuratively).

At this time, there was no excessively outlandish attire.

Liu Wen promptly asked, "Then what is the main issue?"

"It’s your expressions and your eyes," she answered.

"Buying things requires a relaxed and happy environment. I believe you don’t dare to say anything too outrageous, but haven’t you been spouting a lot of nonsense anyway?"

"Why did I sell things so quickly this morning?

Because at first glance, I look like a good person.

Why are people afraid to approach your stall to buy things?

Because at first glance, you three don’t look like good people."

"Many girls are timid. Looking at you, maybe they wouldn’t even dare to ask."

Liu Wen, Luo Zhiwu, and Ba Te didn’t dare to speak, because what Song Yunuan said was true.

Aside from the ones sold at the guesthouse, there had been only an old lady who, leading a young girl, had bought a hair accessory.

Song Yunuan said, "I do have an idea."

Liu Wen’s eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly asked Song Yunuan, "Little Nuan, what good idea do you have?"

Before Song Yunuan could speak, an angry shout came from behind.

"Song Yunuan!"

She turned around and oh, weren’t those Qin Zhong and Xue Min?

Song Yunuan was extremely annoyed inside, but she still put on a meek and clever expression.

She greeted them politely, "Uncle Qin, Aunt Qin, what brings you here?"

Xue Min, fuming, pointed at those people and said, "How can I not come? Your dad, he..."

Then she realized this wasn’t the right thing to say and immediately added, "Your Uncle Qin saw you with these people in the morning... How come they’ve run to the guesthouse to find you again?

Aren’t you afraid of a bad influence?

How old are you anyway?

How can you mix with such riff-raff?"

Luo Zhiwu’s eyes widened.

He really wanted to say, you old woman, who are you calling riff-raff?

But he was tugged by Liu Wen and immediately swallowed what he was about to say.

The three of them stood there meekly, not daring to utter a sound.

Song Yunuan bore it patiently and said, "These are friends I met in the provincial city. They got their goods from my family’s clothing factory. We are just discussing how best to sell the products."

Xue Min berated her as if she were a lost cause, "What kind of bad company is this? Haven’t I always taught you to respect yourself? Have you forgotten it all since you left the Qin family?"

Song Yunuan’s face darkened. Xue Min meant to say she had no self-respect.

Those were such harsh words; not being one’s own flesh and blood meant one could be casually accused?

But she still obediently said, "I remember all that you’ve taught me, truly, I haven’t forgotten."

Qin Zhong began to scold her.

Rapid-fire.

When he scolded Song Yunuan in the past, it was also with spit flying.

Song Yunuan stepped back.

Xue Min told her, "Don’t associate with them anymore. If Old Mr. Hu finds out, he will be angry with you. Then if we are blamed for not raising you well, wouldn’t that be causing trouble for no reason?"

Just then, Old Mr. Hu’s impatient voice came from behind, "How come you still have the bad habit of speaking out without investigating the facts?"

This familiar voice gave Qin Zhong a start.

He turned back, and wasn’t that Old Mr. Hu?

Following beside him was the old curator from the museum, Old Mr. Lin.

In fact, Old Mr. Hu didn’t want to reprimand Song Yunuan’s foster parents.

Because they understood a principle deeply.

People tend to take their anger out on others.

Especially those who are incompetent are more prone to displace their anger.

Little Nuan had grown up in the Qin family, and having fallen out with them would surely affect her future prospects.
