Chapter 91: Chapter 91 Are you threatening me?_1

Song Yunuan soothed her emotions.

These things, she had no one to discuss them with.

Old Woman Mrs. Wang still hadn’t been released.

Where she was being held, no one knew.

Rumors had it that Liu Jincui was in the provincial capital.

Unfortunately, she had no way to find out the inside story.

But she figured it must be a grim fate nonetheless.

She gently said to Lu Feng, "I believe your heart is sincere right now, I also believe that even though you know I am from a rural place, you still don’t want to call off our engagement."

Lu Feng’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, that was it. Little Nuan hadn’t misunderstood him, it really was too good to be true.

Song Yunuan, however, just smiled.

But the smile didn’t reach her eyes.

Actually, that’s just the way it was. He truly liked Song Yunuan, but when he learned that the Song family seemed to have committed a grave crime, he became fearful, made a symbolic search, and then headed back to the provincial capital.

After that, there was no more news from Song Yunuan.

As a result, Song Yunuan became his unattainable love.

She became the trigger for his arguments with Qin Siqi.

But how utterly laughable!

"Little Nuan, we’ll still be together, right?" Lu Feng asked, full of hope.

Song Yunuan looked straight at Lu Feng, decisively shook her head, "No, we will never be together."

Lu Feng was momentarily stunned, his smile freezing on his face as if it had solidified.

"Little Nuan, you’re joking with me, aren’t you?"

Song Yunuan put away the casual smile on her face and said earnestly, "Lu Feng, from the moment I left the courtyard, I suddenly realized I don’t like you anymore, nor do I want to be with you. Marrying and discussing marriage is even more out of the question. Even if your parents agree, it’s useless because the problem lies with me, not with them. You shouldn’t waste your efforts on this or that; it will just make me think you are very naïve and ridiculous."

Lu Feng’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Song Yunuan, who seemed to have become a different person.

Song Yunuan didn’t want to waste words any longer. With such a young man, whatever you say, he has his own interpretations.

But what needed to be said still had to be said, "I know you’re a very hard-working and ambitious person. Hurry up and get well, go back to school. Otherwise, if you get expelled, Xiao Jun and Gangzi will laugh at you every day. And in the future, don’t come looking for me. I don’t want to be criticized for having ongoing ties with you; it would affect my reputation. We should each go our own way. That would be best for both of us."

After saying all this, Song Yunuan left the room without looking back.

Lu Feng’s face turned ashen, feeling his head buzzing.

By the time he came to his senses and went after her, she had already left.

He returned home, head hanging low. Father Lu and Aunt Cai exchanged glances but said nothing.

It seemed that anything said at that moment would be superfluous.

Then, Lu Feng let out a scornful laugh, "A country girl, a family of poor people living in a shabby straw house, and she looks down on me? Does she think she’s even worthy?"

Afterward, he said to Aunt Cai, "Mom and Dad, I’m sorry for making you worry. I won’t do anything stupid again."

Both were a bit slow to react.

By the time they did, they realized that their son seemed back to normal.

But there was still something off.

On second thought, they decided to let it be.

He was still young, and would probably forget after some time.

Song Yunuan and Song Nian left the courtyard directly.

From beginning to end, Father Qin and Mother Qin did not appear.

Song Nian also let out a sigh of relief.

If they had met, he wouldn’t have known what to say.

Meanwhile, at Erdao River Village, Song Liang’s face looked troubled; actually, he had wanted to be with his child.

Old Mrs. Song was admonishing him: "What use would it be for you to go? Neither you nor Guilan going is appropriate. What if you see them, should you thank them for raising your daughter so well, or should you apologize, saying sorry that Siqi suffered through the hard rural life, huh? When the time comes, what will you say? Neither your father nor I should go along either. Little Nuan is much smarter than you are, which is why I told your brother to go with her."

She added: "Didn’t Little Nuan mention that the textile shipment is arriving soon? You listen out for any word on that, and you and your father should get the horse-drawn cart ready quickly to go fetch the goods when it’s time."

"I’ve borrowed a truck from the commune. I spoke with President Huang before, and he agreed to it," he replied.

Old Mrs. Song thought that was more like it.

In her heart, she was thinking that her youngest son was indeed blessed with good fortune, while the oldest was struggling.

It was further proof that Little Nuan was their family’s little lucky gem.

At that moment, the Song family’s little lucky gem was caught by Qin Siqi.

Qin Siqi was even smiling as she said to Song Nian, "Uncle Song, I need to speak with Song Yunuan for a moment."

Song Nian had just begun to say something when Song Yunuan cut in, "Uncle, it’s okay, just wait for me a while."

Qin Siqi focused her gaze on Song Yunuan, then suddenly sneered: "Song Yunuan, did you bring Song Mingsheng with you?"

Song Yunuan’s brows furrowed slightly. The news sure traveled fast; even Qin Siqi knew.

Without saying anything, she just quietly looked at Qin Siqi.

Qin Siqi said bluntly, "Let’s not beat around the bush. I know all about Song Mingsheng’s capabilities, and as your former sister, I understand them clearly. Here’s the deal, let’s go to Old Temple Street tomorrow and have Asheng help pick out some bargains for me. Not much, just find me three things, and we’ll wipe the slate clean between us."

Song Yunuan clenched her fists.

So this was how it was.

She thought, why else would she stop me?

Song Yunuan asked coldly, "And what if I don’t agree?"

Qin Siqi sneered too, "It’s fine if you don’t agree. I’ll tell everyone about Asheng’s abilities. If you don’t want trouble later, it’s best to agree."

Song Yunuan: "Am I being threatened here?"

Qin Siqi: "I wouldn’t dare threaten you, I’m asking for your help."

"Well, I won’t help," Song Yunuan said and turned to walk away.

Qin Siqi raised her voice, "Then don’t blame me for what happens."

Song Yunuan paused, looked at Song Nian, and said, "Uncle, Qin Siqi and I have some matters to deal with. You go wait for me at the guest house, it’s the three-story white building right across. Do you remember it?"

Song Nian looked at the two young women: "I know where the guest house is, but I don’t understand what kind of matters you two could possibly have to resolve. You were mistaken for each other at birth, nobody wanted that, and now that you’ve been exchanged back, the most you can do is to not deal with each other, so what could it be?"

Song Yunuan spoke then hesitated, "... Uncle, it’s just a small matter, please go to the guest house first. I don’t feel at ease leaving Asheng alone."

Seeing Song Yunuan so adamant, Song Nian could only agree.

Qin Siqi frowned, about to ask Song Yunuan what she intended to do when Song Yunuan abruptly pulled her into the big courtyard.

Song Yunuan was very strong.

She pulled Qin Siqi along as if they were running.

At that time, it was the end of the workday, and people were coming and going in the courtyard, making it visibly busier.

Song Yunuan, expressionless, moved past the crowd, dragging a bewildered Qin Siqi towards Building No. 1.

Building No. 1 was close by, just a short distance away.

Standing beneath the building, Song Yunuan shouted loudly, "Uncle Qin, Aunt Qin, I know you’re home, can you come down for a moment? Qin Siqi is threatening me. You decide what to do about this."

Qin Siqi’s face drastically changed, staring at Song Yunuan in disbelief.

Song Yunuan glared menacingly at Qin Siqi, enunciating every word: "Qin Siqi, come on, repeat what you just threatened me with, nice and loud!"
