Chapter 268: The Vicious Supporting Female, Ye Rourou

The three parents, possessing top-notch looks, extraordinarily handsome appearances, and immense power, along with Zhang Dazhuang, all wore identical expressions of indifference.

Inside, they felt no waves of emotion, appearing like emotionless machines.

They looked at Song Wanwan’s group with such calm expressions that it seemed they were not attending a parent-teacher meeting but rather visiting monkeys at the zoo.

Xie Qin, observing from the stage with a clear view: "..."

Over there, Song Chengze sat in the exclusive seat for parents, his expression somewhat distracted.

If you looked closely, you would notice his gaze kept shifting to his phone, as if he was waiting for something.

Yesterday, he had lost face at the banquet with Ye Wanwan and Wanwan!

He is someone who cares about face.

He just wanted to quickly leave that place of right and wrong!

With a few words, he impatiently and dismissively sent away Jian Sheng, the father who was extremely eager to collaborate with them.

They didn’t linger longer at the banquet.

They sent a message to Cousin Lu Junhan, saying they had something urgent and needed to leave.

After greeting, they directly returned to the Song Family.

The mood of the three was not good.

Especially Song Wanwan, who had been slapped several times, kept crying, and the sound of her crying increasingly irritated everyone.

Song Chengze, having been slapped by Jian Yi and knowing it was all Song Wanwan’s fault, felt utterly furious inside!

If it weren’t their fault, perhaps the Song Family could have asked the Jian Family for some benefits to compensate for the current loss of the Song Family.

But now, it was their fault; let alone asking the Jian Family for some benefits, the Song Family had to apologize to the Jian Family!

Song Chengze was utterly restless inside.

However, Jian Yi’s efficiency was indeed remarkable!

Not long after they returned, they heard Jian Yi had completely disclosed Jian Xiyan’s information.

Now everyone knew that the boy named Qin Xiyin in Class (1) of the nursery at Hai City Kindergarten was the most mysterious Crown Prince of the Jian Family!

This was not the end —

Not long after, Song Chengze’s phone rang frantically; it was a hurried call from the company.

They said Jian Family was targeting them, and several deals they were discussing were just snatched by people from the Jian Family!

Song Chengze knew Jian Yi was not a person who would soften; dealing with enemies, he would mercilessly suppress them without leaving any room.

And the unwavering cold attitude of Jian Yi at the banquet spoke volumes.

Thus, Song Chengze instantly gave up the idea of compensating the Jian Family or sending Song Wanwan to apologize to Jian Xiyan.

As he previously said, the Song Family and the Jian Family were equally matched in strength, fighting against each other — who would win was uncertain!

But in doing so, the Song Family completely stood on the opposite side of the Jian Family.

And Ye Wanwan, hearing him say to prepare for dealing with the Jian Family.

Immediately panicked, hurriedly went over to snatch his phone.

She told him, absolutely cannot be enemies with the Jian Family!

Song Chengze was already aggrieved at the banquet, and then publicly embarrassed, further irritated by Song Wanwan’s noisy crying.

He already had a belly full of anger with nowhere to vent, teetering on the edge of eruption.

Moreover, in his view, it was completely Jian Yi making a fuss over nothing!

This child’s quarrel, having Song Wanwan apologize to Jian Xiyan would perfectly resolve it, yet Jian Yi wanted to escalate it into business issues, simply intolerable!

Song Chengze, proud and high, how could he endure!

Now seeing Ye Wanwan still constantly covering for the Jian Family, showing no concern for the Song Family.

The fire within him instantly could not be contained!

He directly started a heated argument with Ye Wanwan!

But no matter how much they argued, Ye Wanwan always maintained the idea of not offending the Jian Family.

This made Song Chengze have to harbor some suspicions about her —

"Her repeated safeguarding of Jian Yi, asking him not to offend the Jian Family, could it be she has some connection with the Jian Family?"

"Could it be, she was a spy sent by the Jian Family to infiltrate the Song Family secrets?"

If not, why, as the Young Madam of the Song Family, did she constantly cover for another family?

Song Chengze had previously reviewed her documentation.

Ye Wanwan was the adopted daughter of the Ye Family. Although the Ye Family wasn’t as prominent as the Song Family, they were still a wealthy household.

Ye Wanwan had told him she didn’t have a good life in the Ye Family, constantly sabotaged and bullied by her sister, Ye Rourou.

At times, she couldn’t even eat enough, beaten and scolded by her adoptive parents, forced to do household chores, and even her clothes were just Ye Rourou’s discarded leftovers.

At that time, Song Chengze only thought Ye Wanwan was pitiful, feeling more tenderness and affection towards her.

At the same time, he felt several degrees of disgust towards the vicious and ruthless Ye Rourou.

He also followed Ye Wanwan’s advice, when Ye Rourou desperately clung to him, tried to seduce him, he either confronted her with a cold face or just left without saying a word.

After all, in Ye Wanwan’s words, Ye Rourou was a venomous and despicable woman who did whatever it took and liked someone else’s husband.

Before, Song Chengze had no doubts about Ye Wanwan; she said it, so he did it.

But now...

Once skepticism arose, Song Chengze couldn’t help but recall over and over the things Ye Wanwan had said.

How much of it was true and how much was false?

Ye Wanwan didn’t want him near Ye Rourou, was it indeed because Ye Rourou was vicious and despicable.

Or because...

She feared Ye Rourou would tell him she was a spy sent by the Jian Family?

Once this thought flickered, it was like a seed planted in the heart, if not clarified, Song Chengze couldn’t rest easy.

In the past, he’d certainly ask Ye Wanwan, but now he hardly trusts her anymore.

Rather, Ye Wanwan’s continual bias towards the Jian Family has drained the little trust he had in her.

At this moment, his phone buzzed; it was a reply from Ye Rourou:

[Brother-in-law, are you looking for me?]

Before Song Chengze could reply, Ye Rourou sent another message:

[Come to think of it, this is the first time brother-in-law is reaching out to me!]

Song Chengze glanced over at Ye Wanwan, seeing she wasn’t looking, pursed his lips, unsure if what he was doing was right.

But he still replied:

[Yes, I want to ask you something about your sister.]

Ye Rourou’s eyes glinted slightly; asking about her sister, huh.

She slightly curled her lips, quickly responded:

[Sure! When it comes to matters of my sister, I know them best! However, brother-in-law, it’s hard to explain here; let’s discuss it when we meet, shall we?]

Then, she sent a pitiful emoji:

[If you’re wary of me, you can bring my sister along. Although I don’t know what my sister said to make you so cautious of me, not even willing to speak a word, we are family after all. If there’s anything I can help with, feel free to ask.]

Song Chengze succinctly replied: [No need, she’s not coming; I’ll come by myself.]

Since it was about matters concerning Ye Wanwan, she definitely couldn’t be brought along.

Ye Rourou probably figured this out, intentionally said so.
