n“It seems that we came at the wrong time today. Old Song, didn’t you say that you have an important meeting later? Let’s go back first and visit another day.” Madam Song looked at her husband.

n“I almost forgot if you didn’t tell me. Shiming, we’ll go back first.” Mr. Song got up and walked towards the door.

n“Okay, okay. I’ll pay you a personal visit in a few days,” Lin replied awkwardly.

nMadam Son released her hand and pulled her son.

n“Song Yan, we’re leaving.”

nSong Yan suddenly shook off Madam Song’s hand and held Shi Qian’s shoulder.

nSeeing the handprint on her face, his eyes filled with heartache.

n“What’s going on, Qian Qian? Are you in some kind of trouble? Tell me and I’ll protect you, okay?”

nThe words of concern were stuck in Shi Qian’s throat.

nAs a child, Song Yan had often told her the same thing.

nShe relied on her brother next door more than her father.

nShi Qian pushed Song Yan’s hand away and turned to Lin Shiming.

n“I’m just here to ask if Su Youwei will give me the money or not.”

nSu Youwei suddenly pounced on Lin Shiming and sobbed in his arms.

nIt was as if she had suffered a great grievance.

nWithout a word, she waited for Lin Shiming to back her up.

n“Shi Qian, are you trying to extort me? Who gave you the guts to strut around in the Lin family!” Lin Shiming shouted angrily.

n“Okay, you’re not giving it to me, are you?” Shi Qian smiled and nodded. She didn’t want to waste any more time. “Then we’ll see!”

nWith that, Shi Qian left quickly.

n“Qian Qian!” Song Yan immediately chased after her.

nHearing the call behind her, Shi Qian quickened her pace.

nAs soon as she ran out of the Lin family’s door, Song Yan grabbed her.

n“Qian Qian, don’t go!” Song Yan lost control and pulled her into his arms.

n“Don’t leave me again, okay? I lost track of you not long after I left the country. Do you know how much I’ve missed you all these years?”

n“Qian Qian, I’ve looked for you a few times when I returned to the country, but I couldn’t find any news of you! Where exactly have you been?”

nShi Qian did not know why she had met Song Yan under such circumstances.

nThis young man who had warmed her entire childhood was her best fantasy.

nShe had actually met him again under such unbearable circumstances.

nAll she wanted to do was escape.

nThe farther the better!

nShe struggled, but Song Yan tightened his grip.

nAs if she was some cherished treasure.

nIf he let go, she would disappear.

nHer heart clenched, and then a strong pain swept through her.

nThe pain almost choked her!

n“Why didn’t you come back earlier? Why didn’t you show up in front of me yesterday, even if it was a little earlier?” Shi Qian said and swallowed hard.

nSong Yan didn’t understand what was going on.

n“I’ve been entrusting Aunt Su to look for you.”

nShi Qian immediately understood.

nHow could Su Youwei let Song Yan find her!

nShe looked at the car parked at the side. Jiang Feng looked in their direction in surprise.

nHe used all his strength to push Song Yan away.

n“Brother Yan! She’s already married!” Lin Qinghe caught up and pulled Song Yan’s arm. “She married a vegetable for money!”

nSong Yan’s eyes were filled with shock and heartache.

n“Qian Qian, is what she said true?” Song Yanchao asked.

n“Yes.” Shi Qian nodded, but tears fell uncontrollably.

nShe turned stubbornly. “I have things to do. I have to go.”

nAs soon as she got into the car, she said to Jiang Feng, “Drive.”

nWithout another word, Jiang Feng started the car and disappeared around the corner.

nShi Qian clasped his hands tightly. She could not even look in the rearview mirror.

nShe was afraid of seeing Song Yan.

nEverything was a foregone conclusion.
