A few days after Fu Chen left, Song Fengwan went to school as usual. Qiao Aiyun was worried about her staying alone, and coupled with Fu Chen's invitation, she packed her luggage and went to stay over for a few days.

During the day, other than dealing with trivial business matters, she was basically on the phone with Song Jingren and arguing all the time. At this moment, she was glad that Song Fengwan was at school during the day and couldn't see the two of them falling out.

"Song Jingren, I've already made it very clear to you. Is there any point in pestering me?" Standing in the courtyard, Qiao Aiyun was furious.

"I know I've let you down. We've been married for more than twenty years. Is there no room for reconciliation?"

"You had an affair behind my back and even had an illegitimate child. I gave you time to deal with it. But what did you do? How could you use Fu Yuxiu to deal with me? Did you leave me any leeway?" Qiao Aiyun still trembled with rage at the thought of this.

"It was an emergency at the time. After all, Fengya is still a child! She's already repented and paid the price for it. And I didn't interfere anymore after that."

Qiao Aiyun sneered. "Fu Chen handled it personally. Do you even have the ability to interfere?!"

Song Jingren was so angry that his face turned red and his voice became louder. "She won't affect anything. I'll dote on Wanwan as much as before. Our family of three will still be the same as before. I'm in Beijing now, and I'll bring her out of the detention center in the evening. Let's meet up and have a good talk…"

Qiao Aiyun sneered. "You disgust me."

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Aiyun was still so angry that she was breathing heavily.

Fu Xinhan lay at her feet, rubbed against her feet a few times, and barked a few times.

That noise…

… sounds just like a pig.

Qiao Aiyun was amused and reached out to pinch his face.

***

The senior students of Beijing Second High School were having their mid-term examinations. Song Fengwan hadn't gone to the atelier for the past two days to focus on preparing for the exams. After the English exam ended at 5 p.m., the school gave them a day off.

After the exam, Song Fengwan was both mentally and physically exhausted, so she didn't go to the atelier and went straight home.

When she arrived at Yunjin Prime Manor, Fu Xinhan was waiting for her with his ears pointing sideways and eyes squinting. He looked very dumb and adorable.

Song Fengwan walked up to him and pinched his face. From the corner of her eye, she saw a black sedan parked not far away. Her smile froze.

She was too familiar with this car. It belonged to Song Jingren and had a Yuncheng license plate.

Song Jingren had been waiting here for more than two hours. Qiao Aiyun didn't want to see him and didn't answer his calls. But he didn't dare to barge into Fu Chen's residence and could only wait outside.

He didn't expect Song Fengwan to return at this hour.

"Wanwan." He hurriedly got out of the car and walked toward her.

Dogs were the most sensitive. Fu Xinhan could clearly sense Song Fengwan's abnormality and looked at Song Jingren with hostility.

"Did school just end? Let me take you out for dinner." Song Jingren smiled like a loving father.

Song Fengwan looked past him, and her gaze stopped at the person who just got out of the car.

Jiang Fengya.

After not seeing her for about a week, Jiang Fengya had become extremely thin. She was originally already petite and thin, but now her body was as thin as a piece of paper. When the autumn wind blew, it was as if her body could fall apart.

Her eyes were red and swollen, and her face was sallow and emaciated. She looked as if she had suffered a great calamity.

Song Fengwan had no sympathy for her at all. It was just that Song Jingren had bought this car on her 15th birthday, and he had gotten a custom license plate with her birthday on it. Seeing Jiang Fengya get out of this car, she suddenly felt a little nauseous.

"I kept calling you, but you didn't answer. I was really worried." Song Jingren smiled. "I brought you some of your favorite desserts from Yuncheng. You can eat them at the hotel later."

"You must have specially come to the capital to pick her up." Song Fengwan looked at Jiang Fengya, her eyes empty and cold.

"Wanwan, you're still young. There are many things you don't understand." Song Jingren smiled exceptionally amiably. "Let's go. I'll take you to dinner."

He stretched out his hand to hold Song Fengwan's hand.

Just as his fingers touched her sleeve, Song Fengwan flung them away. "I'm not going."

"Don't be willful. We haven't seen each other for more than a month. Don't you miss me?" He was employing a gentle offensive.

"I came all the way here, and I haven't eaten the entire day because I wanted to eat with you.

"On the way here, I set my sights on a restaurant. You will definitely like it."

…

Song Fengwan's fingers tightened, and her eyes turned red. She raised her head and looked at Song Jingren.

"Dad, do you love me?"

"That's for sure. You're my daughter. Who else can I love but you?"

"What about her?" Song Fengwan pointed directly at Jiang Fengya.

Song Jingren's expression froze. "Wanwan, didn't you always say that you were envious of other people having older siblings? Isn't it good that you have one more person to dote on you now…"

"Song Jingren, how dare you say such things to my child? Do you still have any shame?!" Qiao Aiyun, who heard the commotion, ran out of the house and pulled Song Fengwan behind her to protect her.

"I've already made it very clear over the phone. For the sake of my child, let's settle this matter quietly.

"We've been married for so many years, so I'll leave you some face. If you dare to harass my daughter again, don't blame me for being impolite. Get lost now!"

Qiao Aiyun's tone was cold and firm, her attitude domineering.

The words 'get lost' didn't leave him any face.

"If there's anything, we can sit down and talk it out peacefully. I brought Fengya here specially to apologize to you…" Song Jingren reached out and beckoned Jiang Fengya to his side.

"Auntie, I'm sorry. I…"

"I told you to get lost!" Qiao Aiyun clenched her fists.

She raised her voice, scaring Jiang Fengya so much that her body trembled. She swallowed her words and didn't dare to speak.

She looked as if she was scared out of her wits.

"Qiao Aiyun, even if there's a problem between us, I can still have a meal with Wanwan. I'm her father. You have no right to stop me."

Song Jingren had talked to them with a smile on his face, but he was rejected repeatedly. He couldn't bring himself to do it anymore, and his attitude suddenly became tough.

"What face do you have to eat with her?" Qiao Aiyun pulled Song Fengwan's hand and walked into the house.

There were security guards outside Yunjin Prime Manor. Song Jingren knew that once they went back in, he would return empty-handed. So he reached out his hand to grab Song Fengwan.

Song Fengwan subconsciously shook it off, but Song Jingren didn't let go, making her flustered and exasperated.

"Woof!" Fu Xinhan thought that Song Fengwan was being bullied, so he jumped out from the side and pounced at Song Jingren.

"Ah—!" Jiang Fengya was standing beside Song Jingren. When she saw a dog jump up with his mouth open, she was so frightened that she screamed instinctively.

Song Jingren was so frightened that his fingers trembled. He released his grip on Song Fengwan and retreated.

"Be careful!" Jiang Fengya suddenly rushed in front of him. Fu Xinhan's teeth slid past her arm, completely tearing apart her shirt lining. There was even a trace of blood on her arm.

"You stupid dog!" Song Jingren's entire body was trembling in anger. He raised his leg, wanting to kick Fu Xinhan.

Qian Jiang had been standing at the side with a cold expression. But seeing this, he twisted his arms and moved his muscles.

He rushed over at lightning speed and punched Song Jingren's face.

A deathly silence instantly shrouded the surroundings.

The autumn wind blew, and it was chilly. The only thing Qian Jiang said was: "You scared my family dog."

Fu Xinhan cowered at the side, looking terrified. This woman's voice was so loud it scared me to death!
