Chapter 238: Mistaken Identity
Chapter 238: Mistaken Identity
The next second, a mocking laughter filled with sarcasm burst out from the yard from Song Wanwan.
It was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her, and Ye Wanwan felt her blood run cold all over.
Song Wanwan: "Look! It’s the stutterer! That disgusting little stutterer has come with his writing board again!"
A somewhat plain-looking boy followed beside her; probably someone Song Wanwan had tried to please and had told him about Qin Xiyin.
Upon hearing this, Jian Sheng clutched his belly and laughed out loud:
"Oh, now I remember, Wanwan, is he the one you mentioned before, who stuttered and had to resort to writing?"
"That’s right,"
As if worried Lu Li and the others couldn’t hear, Song Wanwan deliberately raised her voice as they passed by the fountain.
Anyway, she had already checked, only a few kids in the yard, no one else around.
To win over Jian Sheng, Song Wanwan said whatever she could:
"I don’t know if his parents only have him as their child, bringing a stutterer to such an important occasion, not feeling ashamed at all! Tsk tsk tsk, if it were me, I wouldn’t just not bring him to a banquet, I’d feel disgusted having him at home—"
A resounding "slap!"
Before Song Wanwan could finish, she was slapped hard by Ye Wanwan, who was trembling with anger.
Once wasn’t enough, another loud "slap!" followed!
Instantly, a fiery pain spread across her cheek.
Within seconds, Song Wanwan’s right cheek swelled up high.
Song Wanwan, who had never suffered such a setback, was about to cry and scream when Ye Wanwan dragged her in front of Qin Xiyin, coldly demanding:
"Wanwan, do you know what you’re doing? Apologize to the little master of the Jian Family now!"
"The little master of the Jian Family?" Song Wanwan thought her mother must have gone mad and angrily said:
"Mom, you’re mistaken! He’s not from the Jian Family at all, he’s just a stutterer! His surname is Qin, not Jian at all!"
Ye Wanwan was now nearly driven mad with anger.
The confidence she had expressed earlier seemed like a slap to her own face!
She couldn’t even bring herself to look at Jian Yi’s expression out of sheer embarrassment.
Remembering her previous words made her wish she could bury herself in shame!
Between Song Wanwan and Jian Yi, Ye Wanwan naturally sided with Jian Yi.
Even though she didn’t know what went wrong, making Song Wanwan stubbornly think that person wasn’t the Crown Prince of the Jian Family,
She could see clearly that the little boy Song Wanwan insulted as a stutterer was Jian Yi’s son!
When Song Wanwan was cursing, she had certainly seen Jian Yi’s terrifying expression as if ready to kill.
This was proof enough!
Once Ye Wanwan understood, she tried to force Song Wanwan to apologize again.
But the other kids were scared off by Ye Wanwan’s demeanor and had already dragged the dazed Qin Xiyin away.
Only Song Wanwan was left alone, covering her face and crying loudly.
Shortly after, Jian Yi arrived in the yard, accompanied by a group of bodyguards.
With a face that was always cold and dark, his expression was icy cold, like thousand-year-old ice, devoid of any warmth.
Last time, he only heard reports from subordinates, hadn’t truly experienced it himself.
But this time, he heard it firsthand.
Jian Yi genuinely felt the urge to kill.
His icy gaze fixed on Song Chengze, whose face was slightly rigid, his voice was as cold as piercing ice:
"This is the good daughter you’ve raised, I’ve witnessed it!"
From Song Wanwan’s words, Song Chengze could easily deduce that she must have called Jian Xiyan a stutterer before.
There was a reason for the Jian Family tearing up the contract with the Song Family.
Song Chengze tightly pressed his thin lips, his eyes turning dark, knowing well they were in the wrong, he said with a stern face:
"President Jian, it’s indeed our fault, we will try to make amends, just tell us what you want—"
"There’s no need," Jian Yi interrupted coldly, passing by him without even a glance:
"If my son develops any psychological issues because of this, be prepared for an endless feud between the Jian Family and the Song Family."
Song Chengze’s handsome face immediately darkened.
Jian Yi’s words meant there would be no future cooperation between the Jian and Song families.
On the contrary, the Jian Family would likely retaliate against the Song Family.
No, the Jian Family was certain to target the Song Family.
Before, a single insult from Song Wanwan as "stutterer" led to the contract being torn apart.
This time, it might be even more severe than last time...
Song Chengze closed his eyes briefly, then reopened them, his eyes cold and dark.
Today, the Song Family’s face was completely lost!
Remembering Ye Wanwan’s arrogant and foolish words slightly earlier, and seeing her current somewhat deranged state.
Song Chengze pressed his thin lips, his face darkened, and seized her hand trying to drag Song Wanwan to apologize.
For the first time, unable to suppress the anger from the bottom of his heart, he said irritably and coldly:
"Enough! How long do you plan to keep this up, isn’t today’s embarrassment enough?"
The commotion in the yard was loud enough that many people inside the hall started looking out.
The scene was already chaotic; if Ye Wanwan continued to lay hands on Song Wanwan,
It would be the Song Family’s reputation at stake when word got out!
Song Wanwan was already crying her heart out, seeing Song Chengze, with tears in her eyes, she still insisted on her belief:
"Dad, Mom! Believe me, he really isn’t the little master of the Jian Family, his last name is Qin, his name is Qin Xiyin, he’s just a fake, the one beside me is Jian Sheng, the real little master of the Jian Family!"
Jian Sheng had also been frightened by Ye Wanwan’s fierce demeanor initially.
But seeing Song Wanwan cry so pitifully, he mustered up his courage and stepped forward, saying:
"Yes, auntie, I am Jian Sheng..."
Ye Wanwan frowned tightly, cursed under her breath, "What on earth is going on?"
She hadn’t heard of Jian Yi having two sons.
At this moment, Jian Sheng’s father rushed over, handing a cigarette to the gloomy Song Chengze with a smile:
"Uh... President Song, although I don’t know what happened, my son shouldn’t have caused you any trouble, right?"
Ye Wanwan had never seen the Crown Prince.
Didn’t know what he looked like, but she knew what Jian Yi looked like.
Seeing Jian Sheng’s plain-looking father,
What else was there for Ye Wanwan not to understand!
It was clear that Song Wanwan had mistaken the person!
Qin Xiyin was the real Crown Prince of the Jian Family, and Jian Sheng was just someone who happened to share the surname Jian!
If it weren’t for Song Wanwan, the Song Family and the Jian Family would probably still be cooperating right now.
But now, Song Wanwan’s few cries of "stutterer" had completely ruined everything!
Ye Wanwan bit her lower lip tightly, filled with regret.
Even Song Chengze’s face turned sinister.
...
Jian Yi wasn’t good at comforting people, let alone comforting children.
