Chapter 27: Song Mingxiu, the Eldest Son of the Song Family
The young man standing at the door had a pair of cold and sharp eyes and wore an exquisite haircut and an elegant suit, showing fully the makings of an elite. His expressionless face at the moment was even more deterrent. He had a black suitcase beside his feet and a pair of silver-rimmed glasses at his nose, which Song Qinghuan knew best.
It was a birthday present that she gave Song Mingxiu on his birthday this year.
No one expected that Song Mingxiu would appear at the door. Uncle Rong was the first person to respond. He walked over to greet him, “You are here, young master.”
Song Mingxiu nodded his head. Uncle Rong took his suitcase. He then changed shoes and walked in.
When Song Mingxiu came near, Song Qinghuan noticed that there were a few hidden blood steaks in his eyes behind the lenses. He was also not as gentle and handsome as before, but looked a little gaunt.
“Brother, why don’t you tell me you are coming back in advance and let me pick you up?” Song Shuyao intertwined her skirt with fingers, and smiled at Song Mingxiu, trying to skip the previous topic, because she didn’t know how much Song Mingxiu heard about their conversation.
Their older brother had always favored Song Qinghuan. If he knew that she bullied Song Qinghuan, she would definitely be scolded!
“Brother,” Song Qinghuan was still a little resistant to have Song Mingxiu around. “I’m going upstairs to dry my hair.” said she while grabbing her towel.
“Go ahead.” Song Mingxiu nodded and watched Song Qinghuan go upstairs. Uncle Rong asked the servant to get Song Mingxiu a cup of coffee that suited his preference.
Song Mingxiu took off his suit jacket and handed it to the maid. He sat opposite Song Shuyao and looked up at her. He hadn’t done anything yet, but Song Shuyao already knew her elder brother was angry. So, she murmured, “I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Song Mingxiu lifted the coffee cup, rubbing his finger on the rim of the cup. He said in a deep and low voice, “This is the last time.”
“I see.” Song Shuyao was very aggrieved. After dropping the pillow, she also got up and went back to her room. Since they were little, their elder brother had favored Song Qinghuan. Why did he do this to her? It was she that shared the same mother with Song Mingxiu!
Song Qinghuan was such a slut and just like her mother who was a mistress. They couldn’t do anything but seduce men and pretend to be innocent, which really pissed her off!
After changing her clothes and making sure that nothing important was left in the room, Song Qinghuan took the backpack and opened the door. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Song Shuyao standing in the corridor and looking at her with resentment. .
Song Qinghuan closed the door and Song Shuyao came over aggressively. “He is a small potato! You think you’ve got an extraordinary man, but he is just an 18th-tier star.”
Song Shuyao said with a smile, “My dear sister, I didn’t expect that you like such a creature. You should tell me earlier and anyone of my pursuers is better than Xu Ningzhou, who is just an 18th-tier star. As long as you ask, I’ll give you anyone you like.”
Song Shuyao was the eldest daughter of the Song family and the last thing she lacked was pursuers. She had good appearance and the Song Group behind her, which made her very popular among the rich second generations in Lin’an.
“18th-tier? Unknown star?” Song Qinghuan’s eyes that looked like peach blossoms showed the glimmer of an unclear smile.
The smile made Song Shuyao misunderstand the meaning. She figured Song Qinghuan might be deceived by Xu Ningzhou’s appearance and thought he was from a rich family, but he was just an unknown star. Song Shuyao curved the end of her hair with fingertips, glancing at the corridor warily.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Song Shuyao chuckled and said by Song Qinghuan’s ears, “Unfortunately, this unknown star has been forced out now. Alas, I deeply sympathize with him. But it’s your fault to offend nobody but the second young master of Kaiyue Entertainment.”
“Oh, really?” Song Qinghuan nodded sincerely, “Thank you for your reminder.”
Nobody dared to force out Xu Ningzhou in Wan’ning City. If Xu Ningzhou wanted to set foot in the entertainment industry, he would be given the green light all the way, let alone that he was not an 18th-tier star.
Song Qinghuan also heard of the second young master of Kaiyue Entertainment in her previous life. He was a well-known playboy. He didn’t know Xu Ningzhou but it didn’t mean that Xu Ningzhou was a nobody. It was because people like Li Kairui who were in the rich second-generation circle just didn’t have a chance to get in the “prince” circle which Xu Ningzhou was in.
To put it bluntly, if Li Kairui dared to make trouble for Xu Ningzhou, it would be like an egg hitting a stone.
It was silly for an ignorant person to walk on air.
Song Qinghuan was happy to see Song Shuyao seeking trouble for herself.
Song Shuyao watched Song Qinghuan turn around and go downstairs. She got so angry that she kicked Song Qinghuan’s room door heavily. She did it to vent her anger, but ended with crying for her poor toes.
She gritted her teeth and muttered, “You hoodoo!”
‘You will cry for yourself someday! Just wait!’
After Song Qinghuan went downstairs, Song Mingxiu got up and said, “Are you going back to school? Let me drive you.”
“Thank you, brother.” Song Qinghuan knew that Song Mingxiu was waiting for her when seeing the car key in his hand. After hiding from him for so long, she must face it anyway.
Song Qinghuan took a deep breath and took the co-pilot’s seat.
Neither of them spoke until the car ran out of the villa area. Song Mingxiu played music probably because he felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward. Hearing the music, Song Qinghuan was stunned.
This was a piece of piano music, or exactly, Song Qinghuan’s piano etude.
Song Mingxiu looked at the steering wheel in his left hand. Meanwhile, he raised his right hand to rub the back of Song Qinghuan’s head kindly like before and said, “I think you are getting thinner. Is it because you don’t eat well?”
Song Qinghuan blinked with no answer, but shook the palm off by shaking her head in a seemingly causal way.
Song Mingxiu sighed, knowing that the little girl was mad. He said, “Don’t listen to Shuyao. She is talking nonsense.”
Song Qinghuan propped her elbow on the window. She turned her head against Song Mingxiu, “This is not the first time, brother.” Song Qinghuan paused deliberately, and then asked tentatively, “My sister and I are not twins, nor am I Mom’s child, right?”
The car suddenly stopped, and the two of them could not help leaning forward. Song Mingxiu’s response was so tense that Song Qinghuan, who was just tentative, already got the answer in her heart.
As expected, Song Mingxiu had long known that she wasn’t Xia Runan’s biological daughter. The whole twin thing between her and Song Shuyao was such a satire.
“Huanhuan.”
Song Mingxiu grabbed Song Qinghuan by her shoulders with both hands, forcing her to look into his eyes. Song Mingxiu suddenly felt that his heart skipped a beat when he looked at Song Qinghuan’s clear eyes. After being stunned for a few seconds, he said, “No matter who you are, you will always be my favorite…”
“Little sister.”
Song Mingxiu said the last two words in a heavy tone as if they were “crunched” by him.
Song Qinghuan smiled and didn’t catch the deep meaning. She patted Song Mingxiu’s shoulders. Then she forced a smile and said “I know. I’m just a little sad. Shuyao seems to hate me a lot.”
Song Mingxiu promised, “I am there for you. Don’t worry. She won’t do this in the future.”
