Song Fan revealed a surprised expression. “Godmother, why would you think that?”

Wang Rou explained, “I’ve never seen you bring anyone here before, and Gu

Chen is the first. That’s why I asked.”

Song Fan chuckled at the misunderstanding. “I didn’t want to bring him here at all. He’s the one who brought me. He got out of the car and followed me. I didn’t even have time to stop him.”

Wang Rou sighed in relief after hearing that. She trusted Song Fan and didn’t doubt her words. She offered some advice to her goddaughter. Since Song Fan had said that, she believed her.

Song Fan could be with anyone she wanted, and Wang Rou wouldn’t interfere too much, but she was truly afraid of the people from the Gu Family.

“MO Li, just treat him with respect in the future, but don’t get too close. Wealthy families like his always have various entanglements. It’s best not to get involved, ” Wang Rou cautioned.

Song Fan keenly sensed that something was wrong. This was the first time Wang Rou had emphasized not getting close to someone. Even when Song Fan had disappeared to become a mercenary before and returned to Yongping

Village, Wang Rou hadn’t asked too many questions; she had a lot of trust in Song Fan’s ability to take care of herself. So, why was Gu Chen causing her so much worry?

However, she didn’t show it, just smiled and nodded in agreement. She decided that atter returning, she would investigate this matter. Could it be that her godmother knew someone from the Gu Family?

Song Fan stayed with Wang Rou for a while and took a taxi back to the Song residence after sunset. Upon arrival, the four brothers were anxiously waiting in the living room. Song Kai’s anxiety made him pace back and forth.

Upon seeing him like this, the others became annoyed and just pushed him out. “Go stand by the main entrance. If my little sister comes back, just shout.”

Song Kai grumbled but accepted the role, squatting by the entrance to ward off mosquitoes. After a long wait, he spotted a taxi stopping at the entrance. As soon as Song Fan set foot outside the car, he stood up and shouted, “Little sister is back!”

This exclamation was loud enough to alert anyone within a ten-mile radius, but fortunately, there weren’t many houses in the vicinity. Those inside the house rushed out. Song Ting, clutching a coat, placed it around Song Fan, remarking, “It’s very cold at night. You should put on more clothes.”

Song Fan ducked. “I’m about to enter the house.”

Song Ting insisted on draping the clothes over her, saying, “You shouldn’t catch a cold on this journey either.”

Four brothers escorted Song Fan into the house, and even Song Yi emerged from his study to see what the commotion was about, as Song Kai’s shout had been too boisterous to ignore.

Meng Yu stepped out of Song Yin’s room at this moment and expressed her concern, saying, “Fan Fan, you’re finally back. I was so worried when you were out so late.”

Her face was filled with anxiety, as though she was genuinely worried. She even attempted to touch Song Fan’s face, acting as if she were her biological mother.

However, Song Fan didn’t indulge in her act. She took a step back to avoid her and then turned to sit on the sofa, remarking, “I haven’t had dinner yet.”

Song Chuan swiftly went to the kitchen and returned with the food, personally serving it to Song Fan. He didn’t allow the servants to get involved, explaining, “These are all your favorite dishes. I prepared them well in advance. I was afraid they would get cold, so I kept them warm.”

Song Fan walked over to the dining table and took a seat. The rest of the family joined her. From their actions, it was evident that they were a close-knit family. However, Meng Yu appeared unsure about her role in this reunion.

“Since Fanfan hasn’t eaten yet, I won’t disturb you further. My niece will be coming to keep Yinyin company for a couple of days. By then, you girls can spend some time together.” Meng Yu informed them.

The four Song brothers appeared displeased with this news, but they held their tongues. As long as Meng Yu was still their father’s wife, she held the position of the house’s mistress, and it was right for her to bring her niece along.

Song Fan paid no attention to this and focused on her meal.

Even if Meng Yu brought a hundred people with her, it wouldn’t concern Song Fan. If the former dared to provoke the latter, the former would have to pay the price.

Song Fan remained unafraid, and it didn’t bother her at all.

After sharing her plans, Meng Yu went upstairs. She opened Song Yin’s door and considered moving her to a neighboring room when Xiao Xia arrived. As she contemplated this, she heard a feeble voice say, “Mom.”

Song Yin was calling her. It seemed that she had just woken up. Meng Yu hurried to her bedside. “How are you feeling, dear?”

“My body aches. Who hurt me?” Song Yin inquired.

Meng Yu almost couldn’t contain her laughter. It appeared that Song Yin had returned to normal. Now she didn’t have to worry about her revealing any unwanted information.

However, she quickly realized that she couldn’t let others know about this. If they learned that Song Yin was back to her senses, her plan to shift blame onto Song Yin would fall apart..
