Chapter 32 The First Conversation

  Let's just say that Song big sister calmed down, but a pair of eyes still didn't let her go, staring straight at her. "You still have the nerve to say you just knew about it a little while ago? You have the guts to touch your conscience and say it again, were you really late for just a little while?" Her heart was full of anger, this half year, she found that not being in contact with him was fine, but once they were in contact, she realized that Su Mo Ruo was simply a person with a thick face to the extreme. He wouldn't laugh loudly at you, if he made a mistake, he wouldn't show any embarrassment, making it seem like it was justified, even if he really was wrong, his facial expression would still seem extremely natural. All of these things were what she admired about him.

  "Alright, today is my fault, I made Song miss wait for half an hour, it's my fault, this meal counts as mine, isn't that enough?" Who would have thought that the proud daughter of the Song Corporation would actually care about a single meal's worth of money, and even take pride in being able to scam her out of one meal's worth of money for over half a month? Just thinking about it makes me feel like this girl is unreasonable and weird.

  He nodded and the stinker twitched his mouth, "That's more like it."

  She called the waiter who was waiting beside, after they had arranged their meals, Song Xue Li started to show off her gossipy nature, "Tell me, you're half an hour late, don't tell me you were busy with something, I heard the sound of a car at that time."

  I knew Song Xue Li couldn't be so easily deceived, but thinking that it's better not to let the always-scheming Miss Song know about this kind of thing, Su Mo Ruo had to think up another story. After fabricating a good one, she said: "Just now on the street I ran into some hooligans bullying a girl, I reported it to the police and waited for them to arrive before leaving, so I was delayed for a bit."

  It turned out to be the case, Song Xue Li listened and nodded in a hurry, while also revealing her approval of Su Mo Ruo's actions on her face. At the same time, she couldn't help but say a sentence that was unknown whether it was praise or not, "I knew you weren't completely heartless, this time you have some conscience, knowing to help when seeing others being bullied."

  She actually wanted to tell Song Xue Li that she wasn't helping out earlier, but was fighting with someone. She didn't know what Song Xue Li would think, as she had grown up in a well-off family and never experienced any setbacks. It seemed like among her friends, only Song Xue Li was this innocent and pure. So from the start of their friendship, she hoped that Song Xue Li could always maintain this precious and rare innocence.

  One person ordered a six-minute steak, Song Xue Li was very interested in Western food, and Su Mo Ruo promised to treat this meal, so she naturally had to work hard to eat, that mouth, from the moment the dishes were served, it never stopped, during which there was no time to talk to Su Mo Ruo.

  After eating, Song Xue Li suggested going to her home to play. Growing up, she had never been so enthusiastic about inviting a friend over to her house, and more importantly, this friend was someone she had been looking forward to seeing, which meant that today, whether Su Mo Ruo was willing or not, she would have to bring him along.

  "Sister, are you inviting me to have lunch or dinner at your place?"

  When asked this, Song Xue Li's smile couldn't help but be a bit awkward, and then she opened her bright big eyes to stare at Su Mo Ruo, "You say eat what you want, I'm being generous enough, right?"

  The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes. "Big sister, I'm busy, you think everyone has as much free time as you do."

  "I'm saying, have you gone blind from chasing after money? What exactly are you busy with every day? I think you earn enough to spend, why are you still working so hard?" People who haven't suffered before will always speak so naively. More importantly, Song Xue Li cares about this friend, so she's concerned about her and uses these words to try to get Su Mo Rou to put down the "job" she's currently doing.

  Shaking his head, with a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth, "I know you're concerned about me, or are you just trying to get me fired?"

  "I just don't want you to be so busy and tired every day, you're clearly the same age as me, why are you so mature, thinking about things more than people of our age." She had thought about asking her father to support Su Mo before, but after slowly understanding her temperament, she knew that she had her own pride and was not someone who would accept favors from others. She had two hands and two feet to work hard and live on her own, so if she really let her father support Su Mo, it would only drive her away and break the relationship between them.

  In the end, they couldn't get past Song Xue Li's persistence. After dinner, the two went for a stroll and Su Mo Ruo bought some clothes before taking a taxi to head towards Song's house.

  It's been almost a year since I got to know Song Xue Li, and this is her first time coming to the Song residence. Although I knew that the Song family was wealthy and influential, when I actually saw their mansion, my understanding seemed rather shallow. The Song family's luxurious villa was built on a mountain in Beijing where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, surrounded by rows of villas, while the Song family's villa stood out among them, majestic and grand, with no other villas crowded around it, exuding an air of wealth and nobility.

  "Can I say that your family is nouveau riche?" Standing at the gate, looking at the tall iron door, gazing at the vast empty space and garden inside, his mouth twitched slightly.

  She blinked her big eyes, this is where Song Xue Li grew up from a young age, naturally she wouldn't think there's anything wrong with it. The classmates she brought back before, although some of them had ordinary families, when they came here, all they could say were words of admiration and envy, not one person said that, really leaving our Miss Song stunned.

  "Alright, go ahead. My mom can wait for you for a long time. She's been wanting to meet the classmate who can tame me." With a gentle tug on Su Mo's hand, the iron gate swung open and she dashed inside.

  Song Xue Li's mother, who appeared to be in her forties or fifties, looked like a wealthy and noble person. Her whole body exuded a warm and gentle temperament of a virtuous wife and good mother. A pair of eyes with a hint of smile added points to her face that was not particularly stunning.

  Next to Mrs. Song, there was also a beautiful and elegant woman standing, who should be in her 40s or 50s, with a pair of calm eyes that showed a hint of excitement, but tried hard to conceal it.

  After arriving at the Song's house, Mrs. Song took a look at Su Mo and felt her friend's tense emotions, although she didn't know why, but as a friend, she still patted her hand and comforted her silently with her eyes.

  With this comfort, seeing her good friend's eyes, Hong Ya hurriedly woke up and came out today, completely deceiving the people at home, not even telling the old lady. She really missed her daughter so much that although she hadn't undergone the final verification yet, looking at her daughter's eyes which were similar to hers, as well as her temperament, was almost identical to her husband's, an exact mold of him, although one was male and the other female, but it didn't affect the aura emanating from her daughter.

  Her nose felt a bit sour and she wanted to cry, but she tried hard to hold back her tears. She turned her head away and took two deep breaths of fresh air.

  "Even Auntie, I didn't expect you to come to our house too. You haven't been here for a long time." Song Xue Li's eyes were filled with joy when she saw Lian Hong Ya. She knew Lian Hong Ya's identity and also liked her personality even more. In her heart, Lian Hong Ya's position was almost as high as her mother's.

  He quickly withdrew his gaze, afraid of arousing the suspicion of this clever daughter. With a smile as if nothing was wrong, he shifted his attention to Song Xue Li, extending his hand to stroke her soft and shiny black hair, his mouth curving into a gentle arc. "You silly girl, you're already so big, why do you still act like a child? Today, you even brought friends over, without knowing whether to invite them in first."

  Song's mother had always felt that something was off about her friend today, and now, listening to her talk to her daughter and immediately bringing up the topic of the classmate she brought home, a glimmer flashed in her eyes but quickly disappeared, and a smile rose on her face. "Yes, hurry up and invite your classmate inside."
