Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of a Heroic Man Chapter 1224: Three Bottles

Chapter 1224: Chapter 1224: Three Bottles

Song Jinyan’s handsome face revealed a complex expression, “With Auntie here, she is our own family.”

“Haha! Seeing how pitiful you are, I will pretend you didn’t deceive me.” Auntie Feng drank another gla.s.s, then continued to complain, “In my whole life, I’ve never spoken ill of your grandfather. He has always been the most respected and admired person in my heart, but now I… I’ve changed my mind.”

“I feel the same,” Song Jinyan said as he drank more calmly and soberly. His originally pale face blushed slightly from the alcohol, giving him an entrancing beauty that was quite different from his usual demeanor.

To describe Song Jinyan at this moment with “stunningly beautiful” wasn’t an exaggeration at all.

Songshan sneakily glanced at him, then quickly bowed his head, not daring to look anymore.

“Bang!” Auntie Feng suddenly slammed her wine gla.s.s onto the table, then forcefully patted the table, creating a banging sound that made the entire private room echo with it.

“Jinyan, tell me, isn’t this crazy? I don’t have children, but if I did, I would grab a knife right now and cut down those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds myself. Not even three thousand and six hundred cuts would be enough.”

Songshan covered his mouth. Was Auntie Feng always this volatile?

Song Jinyan gave him a warning glance, then calmed her with patience and steadiness, “Auntie, please calm down. Don’t let the anger harm your health. I’m as angry as you are, otherwise, I wouldn’t have fallen out with Grandpa.”

Speaking of falling out, a trace of complexity crossed Song Jinyan’s eyes and brows.

Once rifts form between people, cracks follow close behind, and these cracks become difficult to mend.

“You know, I know you’re also feeling terrible,” Auntie Feng praised. “Others say you’re hard to get along with, but I know Jinyan, you’re a good kid. Whether in actions or character, you have your own principles and you take family very seriously.”

The more you care about family, the less you can tolerate those you care about being schemed against.

It was too late to undo what had happened, and the worst part was that the old general, instead of trying to make amends, persisted in his mistake and continued to favour Song Jiaming and his daughter Song Zishan.

It was truly despicable.

In fact, Auntie Feng and Song Jinyan both understood very clearly why Old Master Xu was acting this way.

It all boiled down to three reasons.

The first was that Grandma Song’s health was poor, her heart couldn’t stand the shock. She also loved Song Jiaming and Song Zishan the most. Because of work and the circ.u.mstances at the time, she left as soon as she had the children, leaving them behind in the countryside.

Therefore, Grandma Song felt guilty and had always been indulgent toward Song Jiaming.

If she knew the truth, she absolutely couldn’t handle the blow.

The second reason was steeped in irony.

Love.

Whether it was Grandma Song or Old Master Xu, for decades they had treated Song Jiaming as their own son. Humans have emotions, and after so many years of companions.h.i.+p and affection, they had become deeply intertwined, inseparable.

Perhaps in Old Master Xu Song’s heart, Song Jiaming was more pitiable and received more of his affection.

When forced to choose between Song Jiaming and the deceased Su Xuewen, Old Master Xu Song would not hesitate to pick Song Jiaming, the one he was more emotionally attached to. After all, Su Xuewen was dead, had never called him father, and had not spent a day with him.

A dead man, how could he compare to Song Jiaming?

The third reason was the reputation of the Song family.

If such an incident were to get out, the Song family would become a laughingstock, deceived to such an extent by someone not fit for the public eye, it would be a severe blow to the reputation of the Song family.
