Song Yunxuan was surprised by Xia Bingerâs sudden appearance.
She felt something was strange, but she didnât know what it was.
She could only ignore the strange feeling and meet Xia Binger at the appointed time.
Mei Qi came to pick her up before three oâclock as he promised.
After getting in the car, Mei Qi asked Song Yunxuan, âWhat do you think Xia Binger is going to say to you, Manager Song?â
Song Yunxuan frowned, âShe suddenly jumped out of the thin air and claimed that she had Chu Mochenâs son. I really donât know what sheâs gonna say.â
âSince she requests to see you for money, she may want more when you meet.â
Song Yunxuan did not agree with him.
She had strong intuitions that there was more to it than that.
Imagine that even if Xia Binger ran out of 300,000 that Chu Mochen gave her every month, it was impossible for her not to keep some money for emergencies.
Moreover, everybody knew that Song Yunxuan had been Lu Fengâs fiancée. If Xia Binger paid attention to what happened in Yuncheng, she must have learned about it.
Since Song Yunxuan had been Lu Fengâs fiancée, how come Xia Binger looked for funds from Song Yunxuan?
Song Yunxuan lowered her eyes, having a train of thoughts. There were many speculations in her mind for a moment.
She didnât say them out.
Noticing Song Yunxuan frowned without talking, Mei Qi stopped asking.
When they arrived at the destination, Mei Qi said to Song Yunxuan, âHere we are, Manager Song.â
Looking at the tall buildings outside the window, Song Yunxuan gently sighed, âWait for me outside. Iâll see her alone.â
Mei Qi put on a worried look, âIs she gonna play tricks?â
Song Yunxuan said with a smile, âI donât think so.â
Logically, Xia Binger would not take any dangerous move.
After that, Song Yunxuan went to the hotel for Xia Binger.
Xia Binger probably was in urgent need of money. She had arrived early.
She booked a table and waited.
Seeing Song Yunxuan come over, the receptionist greeted Song Yunxuan with a smile, âAre you Miss Song Yunxuan?â
Song Yunxuan was quite identifiable among people in Yuncheng. After all, her engagement along with her photos hit the headlines of all the financial and entertainment news. Even the magazines were reporting it.
The entertainment industry had never been short of entertaining news.
Especially, it was closely related to the business world.
It seemed that Xia Binger was afraid that she might cause Song Yunxuan trouble.
She booked a parlor for this conversation.
It was an ocean-view room.
When Song Yunxuan stepped into the parlor, she saw that Xia Binger was in a long black dress. Her long black hair fell straight to her back. She looked out of sorts.
Seeing Song Yunxuan coming in, Xia Binger greeted at once, âMiss Song.â
Before Song Yunxuan responded, a small head with a prince haircut poked out behind Xia Binger.
The boy was little. He looked at a Song Yunxuan with big eyes.
Song Yunxuan looked back, twisting her eyebrows slightly.
Noticing that Song Yunxuanâs eyes were drawn to her son, Xia Binger hurriedly turned around, picked up the boy in black-and-white overalls, and said to him, âBoer, this is Miss Song.â
The child had a lisp while eating his fingers.
Xia Binger took out his fingers from his mouth. She acted mad and taught him a lesson, âHow many times have I told you? This is wrong. Take out your fingers and no more finger eating.â
The boy frowned.
He tried to put his fingers back to his mouth, but Xia Binger pressed them down. Xia Binger took out a nipple from a bag on the table and then put it into Boerâs mouth.
Song Yunxuan was quiet while watching Xia Binger taking care of her son.
When Xia Binger was done with it, she said to Song Yunxuan awkwardly, âHeâs a naughty boy. Miss Song, please sit down.â
Song Yunxuan sat by the window.
Outside the window was the blue sea that was stretching to the horizon.
The sea melted into the sky where white clouds floating. It was relaxed and pleasant.
Xia Binger looked out of the window and said, âIâm sorry to have you here.â
Song Yunxuan got the gaze back to Xia Binger and snapped, âIf youâre really sorry, you wouldnât have called me over.â
Hearing that, Xia Binger showed an embarrassed look.
After a moment of silence, Xia Binger said with sadness on her pretty face, âIf there had been some other way, I wouldnât have called for your help. I have no other choices, so I made up my mind and called you.â
Song Yunxuan did not speak and looked at Xia Binger quietly.
She tried to see through Xia Binger by observing her facial expression while talking.
Pitifully, Xia Binger didnât show any suspicious expression.
Xia Binger said, âMiss Song, weâll really appreciate it if you help us.â
Song Yunxuan asked back calmly, âAppreciate me?â
âYes.â Xia Binger nodded.
Song Yunxuan said, âHow will you appreciate me?â
âIâll leave Yuncheng with my son as soon as I get the money. Weâll never show up to you.â
Xia Binger voluntarily offered.
Song Yunxuan could not help but laugh at it, âWhy do you think I want you to leave?â
âI think you donât want to see us in Yuncheng.â
âYouâre right.â
Xia Binger pursed her lips and did not speak a word.
Song Yunxuan took out a cheque from her bag.
She put it on the table.
Xia Bingerâs eyes shone at the sight of the cheque.
The boy was in her arms placidly.
He probably felt Song Yunxuanâs daze. He turned his eyes back to Song Yunxuan.
Xia Binger said to Song Yunxuan, âThank you for the help. I will leave here as promised.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After saying that, Xia Binger reached for the cheque.
However, Song Yunxuan put pressure on the cheque and didnât let her take it.
Xia Binger failed to take it. She looked at Song Yunxuan, confused. She didnât understand why Song Yunxuan did so since she had promised that she would give the money.
Song Yunxuan said, âI changed my mind.â
Xia Binger twisted her brows, âYou changed your mind?â
Song Yunxuan nodded.
Xia Binger sensed the air of danger at once, âMiss Song, are you gonna break your promise after putting the cheque on the table?â
âOf course not. I meant what I said. You have my word. I will help you.â
Xia Binger shifted her sight to the cheque, âThen why donât you give it to me?â
âYou can have it, and I can do you another favor.â
Xia Binger frowned, looking at Song Yunxuan. She had no idea what tricks Song Yunxuan was playing.
âWhat is it?â
Xia Binger looked at Song Yunxuan vigilantly.
Song Yunxuan smiled and loosened her fingers. Xia Binger took that cheque for five million yuan in her hand.
Song Yunxuan leisurely said, âEvery month you spent all the money Chu Mochen gave you. That means youâre a high-spending shopper.â
Xia Binger frowned. She took a look at the amount on the cheque.
Song Yunxuan looked at her, âYou have the money now. But I guess youâll spend them all one year or two at the most.â
Xia Binger lowered her eyes.
Song Yunxuan was right. Xia Binger got used to the luxury lifestyle when she was a star. She wouldnât be able to get through two years with the money.
Song Yunxuan asked her, âWhat are you gonna do by then? Come to me for money again or pick up your career to support you kid?â
Hearing this, Xia Binger sighed, âIâll just play it by ear.â
âYou know how to spend money but donât know how to make them.â Song Yunxuan reminded her.
Xia Binger said, âI understand, but now my kid is young. I need to take care of him. I wonât be able to do that if I work again.â
Xia Binger glanced down at her son while saying that.
The boy didnât notice. He continued staring at Song Yunxuan.
And he giggled.
âSo leave him to me. Iâll take care of him.â
Song Yunxuan said so.
Xia Binger was shocked right away, seeming that she did not understand what Song Yunxuan had just said.
Seeing she froze for a few moments, Song Yunxuan asked her, âWill you agree with that? Miss Xia?â
Xia Binger frowned and held her son tightly in her arms subconsciously, âI canât live without him.â
âWith me, his future will be more promising.â
âBut heâs my son.â
âHe is. You have the obligation to raise him. What am I to you? Why do you come to me for money to raise your son?â
Hearing that, Xia Binger fell silent for a while. Words failed her.
