Chapter 275 - Investigate
Sir, How About A Marriage?
Jiahui smiled and said, âThen youâve found the right person. Thereâs no one more romantic than Dr. Songâs husband!â
Song Ning only smiled and did not say anything.
Fu Ting quickly asked Jiahui about the identity of Song Ningâs husband.
However, before Jiahui could reply, Song Ning interjected, âIs Miss Fu local?â
Fu Ting smiled and replied, âNo, but I studied at M University. I went abroad for a few years, and when I returned to the city, I found that it has changed a lotâ¦â
Song Ning said, âAlthough the city has changed a lot, the people havenât changed. Miss Fu must have a lot of family and friends here, right?â
Fu Ting replied, âMost of my classmates from back then are scattered in different places; itâs difficult to find all of them. Fortunately, I can still make new friends. For example, all of you. I really admire all of you very much and hope that we can be friendsâ¦â
Song Ning did not reply to those words while Fu Ting continued chatting with Jiahui.
Yang Yi said teasingly, âJiahui is very friendly, and she talks non-stop as wellâ¦â
The group of people continued chatting happily.
At the same time, Song Ning silently brought her phone out and sent a message to Mu Chen that read: Help me look up a reporter named Fu Ting. Sheâs from M Cityâs News Express.â
After a brief moment, Mu Chen replied to Song Ningâs message. She quietly read Mu Chenâs reply while she listened in to the othersâ conversation. At this point, the others in the group had already made plans to go to the beach for a barbecue during the weekend.
Fu Ting asked with a smile, âDr. Song, why donât you join us as well?â
Song Ning replied politely, âNo, I havenât been feeling well recently. Moreover, I usually stay home with my husband during the weekends to accompany his grandmotherâ¦â
Upon hearing Song Ningâs refusal, an expression of disappointment appeared on Fu Tingâs face. Then, she said, âCome on. This is a rare chance for us to gather. Itâs fine if you bring your family alongâ¦â
Jiahui was spurred on by these words. She said enthusiastically, âNingning, letâs go and have some fun. Iâve heard of the place Fu Ting mentioned; itâs a very nice place!â
Song Ning thought about it for a moment before she said, âIâll have to ask if my husband will be free at that timeâ¦â
Jiahui hurriedly said, âThereâs no need to ask. As long as you agree to come with us, Mu Chen and Cheng Che will definitely come alongâ¦â
Song Ning glanced at Fu Ting before she finally replied, âAlright, letâs meet this weekend.â
Fu Ting smiled as though she was delighted and relieved that Song Ning finally agreed to join them.
Song Ningâs gaze deepened as she looked at Fu Tingâ¦
â¦
After work, Mu Chen and Cheng Chen came to pick Song Ning and Jiahui up respectively.
Their senior brothers sighed when they saw this.
âI really didnât expect weâll have to give Jiahui away so soon after Song Ning got marriedâ¦â
Jiahui flushed with embarrassment and chased after her seniors to playfully beat them up.
Mu Chen and Song Ning left first, leaving Cheng Che behind to wait for Song Ning.
While Mu Chen was driving, he asked, âWhy did you ask about Fu Ting earlier?â
Song Ning made herself comfortable before she replied, â As soon as she spoke earlier, I found her voice really familiar. Then, I realized she was a customer who came into the store yesterday and was adamant about getting a membership card. I just canât help but feel she has ulterior motives. I have a feeling she came to the hospital today because of me so I decided to ask for your help to investigate herâ¦â
Song Ning continued to say, âHowever, based on your report, thereâs nothing suspicious about her except for the fact that sheâs Ye Chengâs girlfriend. No matter how I thought about it, our interests donât coincide. She invited us to the beach this weekend, and Jiahui agreed on my behalf. Since I still canât guess her intention, I didnât continue to refuse the invitation.
Mu Chenâs car came to a stop at the red light at this moment. His hands rested on the steering wheel as he turned to look at Song Ning with a deep gaze and said, âI hope our daughter will be like you in the future; smart and calm. That way, she wonât be deceivedâ¦â
The cornersâ of Song Ningâs lips curled up into a smile as she said, âDid you eat honey today? Why are your words so sweet?â After a beat, she asked, âWhat you do think her intention is for approaching me?â
Mu Chen turned back to look at the road; the traffic light had turned green. As he began to drive again, he said, âFu Ting is Fu Guoâs cousin.â
