Chapter 326: Mother Qiao Is Protective, Third Master Arrives
The living room was in a mess, and Yan Zhihuan was still sobbing softly.
Song Fengwan went out to call Fu Chen. Just as she was about to enter the house, the glaring headlights of a car flashed past, and she subconsciously squinted. Following the sound of brakes, the car stopped at the entrance of the Yan residence.
Because she had just seen it during the day, she recognized it as the Xiao family’s car.
It had already been more than half an hour since Old Madam Yan had gotten someone to inform the Xiao family. In the morning, Mrs. Xiao had even said that the two families didn’t live that far away and that it would take them around ten minutes to drive over. Yet they arrived so late?
Actually, this couldn’t be blamed on the Xiao family. The Yan family only said on the phone that something happened and invited them over, but they didn’t reveal the specifics. The Xiao couple had already gone to bed, so they had specially gotten up and washed up. Mrs. Xiao was afraid of being rude, so she put on some makeup too. They finally left the house after tidying themselves up briefly, which had caused the delay.
“Wanwan, it’s so late. You aren’t asleep yet?” Mrs. Xiao was completely unaware of what was happening and even greeted her with a smile.
“Mhm. Hello, Uncle, Auntie.”
“Why did you call us over so late? Is there anything urgent?” Mrs. Xiao reached her hand out to comb through her hair.
The two families didn’t have a close relationship; they only had some business dealings. They had never visited the Yan family so late at night, so they couldn’t figure out what was happening.
Mr. Xiao greeted Song Fengwan briefly while Mrs. Xiao held Song Fengwan’s hand. “Wanwan, tell Auntie. Did something happen? Is it related to my family?”
“It’s a little troublesome, and I can’t explain it clearly. Please go in first.” Song Fengwan smiled.
As soon as the two of them entered the house, they saw that half of their son’s face was swollen. There were even lipstick and bite marks at the corners of his mouth and neck, and he had his pants on inside-out while Yan Zhihuan was kneeling on the ground. There was a shattered teacup on the floor and clear yellow tea splashed all over.
She wasn’t stupid. Just by looking at their disheveled clothes, she knew what had happened.
And from the looks of it, they had obviously been caught red-handed.
The couple’s expressions turned extremely ugly in an instant.
At first, Xiao Jingan was still shocked that the Yan family and the two people in the photo knew each other. But now that his parents had come, he felt that his backers had arrived and became slightly reassured.
“Old Madam, this is…” Mrs. Xiao glared at Yan Zhihuan kneeling on the ground, with her brows creased.
The person she had her eye on was Song Fengwan. Now that the two of them had gotten together… No one would be willing to let another girl in their family date her sister’s man.
“Hmph, let them explain themselves!” Old Madam Yan sneered. She wanted to save her face. Those disgusting things were truly difficult to voice out.
“What exactly did you do?” Mrs. Xiao frowned.
Actually, based on the situation in the living room, she could more or less guess what had happened. Being caught at the scene? This is really mortifying.
“The two of us were in the coconut grove…” Half of Xiao Jingan’s face had been beaten bruised and swollen by Yan Wangchuan. When he spoke, it tugged on the corners of his mouth, and he grimaced in pain.
“Coconut grove?” At Mrs. Xiao’s age, she was definitely conservative. When she heard this, she only felt the sky grow dark.
“Then the Yan family came.” Xiao Jingan avoided the main issue.
“Didn’t you miss something?” Old Madam Yan snorted coldly.
“How did the Yan family know about you two doing that and head there?” Mrs. Xiao asked bluntly.
“Xiao Jingan threatened Wanwan. He originally invited her to go to the coconut grove. She was afraid and told us, so we prepared to go and take a look. What was your son planning to do?” Old Madam Yan rubbed her cane.
“In the middle of the night, he called a girl out to that kind of deserted place! What did he have in mind?!
“Wanwan didn’t go. She went.” Old Madam Yan pointed at Yan Zhihuan. “When we got there, the two of them were already rolling around together! They weren’t even wearing any clothes. How shameless!”
Father Xiao walked in front of Xiao Jingan. “You threatened Song Fengwan to get her to go out in the middle of the night?”
“Dad, I can explain this…”
Pa! Father Xiao swung his arm and slapped him.
The sound was extremely loud. Song Fengwan was so startled that her body trembled. This slap is really ruthless.
“You fool, what else do you want to explain?!”
Xiao Jingan gritted his teeth in hatred.
Father Xiao looked at Song Fengwan. “Miss Song, I’m really sorry. I apologize to you on behalf of my son. I didn’t teach my son well.”
“Uncle Xiao.” Song Fengwan hurriedly stopped him. “You don’t have to apologize for this.”
“Dad, I didn’t threaten her to do anything at all. She’s the one with improper conduct. I wanted to have a good talk with her. If you don’t believe me, look at my phone.” Xiao Jingan refused to give up.
“Phone!” Yan Wangchuan passed the phone to the Xiao family.
Xiao Nan lowered his head and swiped through the phone. His eyes narrowed.
“She’s so young, yet she went out to mess around with two men. As an older brother, I should advise her to realize her mistake. I gave her face and didn’t immediately expose this matter. I wanted to solve it secretly, but who knew that this…”
Qiao Aiyun, who had been sitting and not saying a word, stood up. “Young Master Xiao, you have to be responsible for what you say! Do you know what the words ‘fool around’ mean for a girl?”
“The evidence is conclusive. Your Yan family still wants to defend her?”
“Wanwan already made the call just now. The two of them will be here soon. They are easily recognizable, so we can’t possibly just find someone to substitute for them. We’ll know who’s right and who’s wrong soon.”
Qiao Aiyun smiled coldly. “But there’s something I’ve wanted to ask you for a long time now, Young Master Xiao.”
Xiao Jingan thought that even if those two people came, it would just be a misunderstanding at most. With his parents around, what could the Yan family do to him?
“What?”
Qiao Aiyun suddenly walked over, grabbed the phone from Xiao Nan’s hand, and shoved it on Xiao Jingan’s face. “Where did these photos come from?”
“These are all my…” Xiao Jingan swallowed his saliva nervously.
“These photos can’t be taken by accident, right? You sent someone to tail my daughter?” Qiao Aiyun suddenly threw the phone at his face. It hit Xiao Jingan’s nose bridge, making his face contort in pain.
“Young Master Xiao, what were you thinking of doing? What do you want to do to my daughter?
“I haven’t asked you why you sent someone to follow her yet, but you keep saying that she fooled around with others to ruin my daughter’s innocence! Young Master Xiao, what on earth are your intentions?!
“Do you want to ruin my daughter or destroy the Yan family’s honor?!”
Xiao Jingan was stunned.
Destroy the Yan family’s honor? No one would dare to admit to such a huge offense.
Mrs. Xiao braced herself and explained, “Mrs. Yan, there must be some misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding?” Qiao Aiyun couldn’t help laughing.
“If Wanwan hadn’t mentioned this to us tonight and went to see him in private instead, and if Yan Zhihuan hadn’t gone today either, I’m afraid she wouldn’t have been able to come back tonight at all.
“We’re all adults, so let’s not beat around the bush. There’s already conclusive evidence of him tailing and threatening her. It’s fine if he stubbornly refuses to admit it, but he even slandered my daughter. Does he really think that she’s easy to bully because she’s a child?”
Mrs. Xiao looked embarrassed.
Xiao Jingan looked at Song Fengwan, who was sitting at the side.
She’s a child?
She’s a f*cking devil! Which family’s child is like this?
“You bastard! You’ve disgraced our Xiao family entirely!” Xiao Nan kicked him, his face flushed red.
So be it if he couldn’t get close to Song Fengwan. But if they offended the Yan family consequently, wouldn’t the loss outweigh the gains?
“Dad.” Xiao Jingan was furious. “They’re just trying to cloud the problem and shield Song Fengwan.”
His family had also been supportive of him wooing Song Fengwan. Why weren’t they treating him as a human now?
“You’re still spouting nonsense!” Xiao Nan wished he could beat this disgraceful thing to death.
…
“Why aren’t they here yet?” Qiao Aiyun tilted her head and looked at Song Fengwan.
Song Fengwan called Fu Chen again with her phone and hung up after a few simple words. “Third Master said they’re nearby and will be here soon. It might be because it’s too dark, so the road isn’t easy to find.”
Xiao Jingan’s mind was already in a mess. Song Fengwan really dares to bring her adulterers home? Does everyone in the Yan family really know him?
When she called him just now, she addressed him as…
Third Master?
No one in Nanjiang is called this, but there’s one in the capital. How could he appear here from so far away? It definitely isn’t him. He kept hinting to himself, trying to get himself to calm down.
Until Qiao Aiyun said…
“Fu Chen came and didn’t even say a word to me. We agreed that he would come and play when he was free, and I would welcome him personally.”
Fu Chen?
Xiao Jingan had never seen this person before, but the name was like thunder in his ears[1]. His mind went blank, and his face paled…
Yan Zhihuan had yet to realize who Fu Chen was.
The Xiao couple’s faces were even paler. Isn’t he the one from the Fu family in Beijing? How did he get involved?
At this moment, someone ran in with small steps. “Old Madam, they’re here.”
Xiao Jingan felt faint. If one of them was Fu Chen, then the man who was so fair that he shone should be…
He instantly felt dizzy and almost fell down again. His gaze landed on Song Fengwan. She still looked beautiful and obedient, and she shot a smile at him.
It was as if someone had grabbed his throat, making it difficult for him to breathe. This was a beautiful female snake! With toxic venom!
Anyone who touched her would die.
