One Thousand Two Hundred and Forty-Nine Jealousy (I)
"Little girl, you haven't come to see me for two weeks." Old Master Tang pretended to be angry.
Song Zhixing felt guilty. Tang Yu hadn't asked her to go recently, and she didn't know if she was still suitable to be there. She was the only one who was not a member of the Tang family.
"Come over for dinner tonight, don't refuse Grandpa, I will ask the driver to pick you up at the school gate." Old Master Tang's tone was the same as Tang Yu's, and he didn't allow any objection. But in comparison, it was much gentler.
His tolerance made Song Zhixing feel warm in her heart.
After class, she walked out of the school gate, and the driver of the Tang family was already waiting at the door. The drive took about an hour to reach the Tang family's house. Several cars had been parked under the majestic steps of the white marble slabs. It seemed that everyone in the Tang family had arrived tonight.
Did the second uncle come too?
Song Zhixing held the straps of her schoolbag tightly and walked inside.
The hall of the Tang family was full of people. Everyone was chatting very warmly and lively.
Song Zhixing went in, and the old man waved as soon as he saw her, "Xingxing, come here."
"Grandpa." Song Zhixing sat down next to the old man as he said, and called people one by one. Only Tang Laoda and Tang Yu were not present in the Tang family, and the rest of the people were there. Today, there was a very beautiful woman sitting next to Tang Yi, and Song Zhixing knew her, so he called out, "Hello, little aunt."
Mo Liangyan.
She was Tang Yi's fiancée.
Song Zhixing had always called her like this before, and no one thought it was inappropriate. But when she called out today, Mo Liangyan felt a little embarrassed. After a slight smile, she responded softly. Her eyes subconsciously looked at Tang Yi, and finally fell on Tang Song's face beside her. Her eyes were complicated, and it was hard to see what kind of emotions she was feeling.
These small details, except for a few people involved, no one noticed. Song Zhixing was even more.
Her mind was not here at all. She put down her schoolbag and seemed to be unintentional, circling in the hall. From time to time, her sight fell on the backyard and other rooms.
"Xingxing, what are you looking for?" Tang Fei suddenly asked. Originally, the group of elders were chatting very lively, and Tang Fei's sudden voice made everyone shift their attention to Song Zhixing who was about to push open the side hall door.
Tang Youyou smiled and said, "Xingxing is looking for the second brother, right?"
She was embarrassed,
and didn't know how to answer for a while. She felt very uncomfortable with her hand on the door handle.
"Looking for the second brother? He didn't come today." The old man said.
Song Zhixing met the eyes of the old man of the Tang family, and he lowered his head in a guilty mood. Afraid that his thoughts would be seen through by these people, he only licked his dry lower lip and said unconfidently: "I'm not looking for the second uncle, but... just looking around."
It turned out that he didn't come...
The last time she left his office, he was about to go on a business trip. It's only been half a month now, and maybe he hasn't come back yet.
Song Zhixing's mood was inexplicably depressed again, and he sat back in the crowd embarrassedly.
Tang Youyou asked her, "I heard that you two had a quarrel? You lost so much weight, could it be because of this?"
"...No." Song Zhixing waved her hands in a panic and quickly found an excuse, "I'm going to take an exam soon, and I'm under a lot of pressure, so I lost weight."
"This second son is too rude, he actually dared to kick you out. I'll have to teach him a lesson later." The old man felt arrogant when he thought of this. The parents of this little girl are his lifesavers, no matter what point he starts from, he can't treat her like this.
Song Zhixing was about to say something when he saw the servant trotting in and said, "Master, the second master is here."
As soon as these words came out, Song Zhixing's heart was turbulent. She clearly said that she was not looking for him, but her eyes still fell uncontrollably to the door.
Under the sight of everyone, Tang Yu walked in slowly in a black suit.
"Grandpa." He walked in, greeted the old man first, took off his suit and handed it to the servant. With the setting sun behind him, he had an air of being able to control the world. Everyone greeted him and called him "Second Brother", leaving Song Zhixing sitting there blankly, her heart aching and sour.
Because, his eyes swept across everyone's faces, but only... she didn't stay for a moment. He just treated her as if she didn't exist.
Song Zhixing let out a long sigh of depression.
Everyone noticed that something was wrong between the two of them, and the old man was the first to speak: "Why are you here? Didn't you say you were on a business trip and didn't have time?"
"I changed my schedule temporarily." Tang Yu's tone was flat. He hadn't been back for half a month, and he hadn't seen a little woman for half a month. He didn't want to miss such an occasion today.
"You're back just in time." Tang Youyou glanced at Song Zhixing, "You didn't come just now, but Xingxing was looking for you. Right, Xingxing?"
As soon as he said this, Song Zhixing was startled and suddenly raised his eyes. Tang Yu narrowed his eyes and was looking at Song Zhixing at this moment. The two people's eyes just bumped into each other. He no longer treated her like air as he did just now, staring at her meaningfully, "Do you have something to ask me?"
Song Zhixing's heartbeat suddenly became chaotic when he looked at her.
She was afraid that Tang Youyou beside her would notice something was wrong, so she didn't even dare to say a word. Everyone in the Tang family had a keen sense of observation, so she didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
Tang Wei smiled, "Second brother, I can testify that Xiao Xingxing was indeed looking for you just now. However, I don't think she looked for you for something, but more like she missed you very much."
After saying this, Tang Yu's gaze on Song Zhixing became deeper, even a little scorching. Will this little girl miss him? However, she looks a little rounder than last time, and her complexion is much better. It seems that Sister Li has contributed a lot.
Song Zhixing was embarrassed by Tang Wei's heart, and her ears turned red. Coupled with Tang Yu's undisguised eyes, she was even more flustered, and hurriedly said: "No... I really have something to say to my second uncle."
Tang Yu did not ask, but just waited for her to speak. Everyone's attention fell on her.
Song Zhixing pondered for a moment, looking at Tang Yu, "I... I have decided to go back to my grandfather after the exam."
This sentence was like a thunderclap, which made everyone stunned.
Tang Yu's already cold face suddenly showed a bit of gloom, making the whole scene condense as if covered with a layer of frost. When he was about to get angry, everyone was afraid, and Song Zhixing was naturally a little timid. But now, the topic has come to this point, so she had to bite the bullet and continue: "Today the school asked me to fill in the application form, and I didn't fill in any school..."
"Have you thought it through?" Tang Yu finally spoke, and his tone was very heavy.
Song Zhixing's throat seemed to be blocked. It was just a few simple words "I have thought it through", but she just couldn't say it.
