Chapter 66: Chapter 66 Break off the Engagement

Fearless?

How could it be? There are too many things she fears.

Precisely because there are so many, that’s why she hastily chose to cling to him; he should have known that.

Shi Nuan stopped speaking and was pulled along by Song Yansheng, with the gentle sunlight softly scattering down, casting a halo over the two of them.

The shadows of the trees, the fragrance of flowers; the green grass and red blooms, the scenery familiar yet strange.

Out of place, Shi Nuan suddenly thought of her mother.

She felt that if her mother were still alive, she would surely love this quaint and elegant mansion.

Unconsciously, the two soon reached the main hall. A servant was ahead, just about to report, when they heard the sound of cups and saucers shattering inside.

Following that was Yu Yao’s angry voice: "Qingyang, what nonsense are you doing? Why are you calling off the engagement for no reason? What on earth are you thinking?"

The servant at the door, as well as Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan not far behind, were all slightly taken aback, puzzled.

The servant braved himself to step over the threshold and said to the people inside, "Madam, Mr.—Mr. is back!"

Yu Yao, who was on the sofa, froze for a moment and quickly said, "Why are you standing there? Quickly let Mr. come in!"

The servant responded, turned around to call Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan, while Yu Yao, seeing Song Qingyang with red eyes, spoke in a low voice and said no more.

When Shi Nuan, held by Song Yansheng, stepped through the doorway, she had already anticipated the scene she was about to face, yet she was still slightly shocked by Song Qingyang’s appearance.

From what Yu Yao said just now, Shi Nuan could roughly guess some of it. A year ago, Song Qingyang got engaged to Yu Dou, the deputy manager of Shi Company.

Yu Dou was a distant nephew of Yu Yao and also the cousin of her stepmother, Li Guirong. Back then, when the two got engaged, Yu Yao was very pleased with it.

However, Shi Nuan did not like Yu Dou; the man gave her the impression of being somewhat arrogant!

Although she had to admit that over the past two years, because of Yu Dou’s presence, the Shi Company indeed grew and expanded more than before.

So earlier, when Song Qingyang mentioned calling off the engagement, it must have been about breaking off the engagement with Yu Dou!

Why call off the engagement for no reason? Shi Nuan was very surprised.

Song Qingyang looked at Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan entering together, with shock in his eyes but not strongly so.

This morning, he had heard from the madam that Song Yansheng would be coming back, but did not expect him to bring Shi Nuan along.

He felt a pang of heartache, thinking how absurd reality was. If his brother’s soul hadn’t really left yet, seeing this scene, he wouldn’t know what to think.

Yu Yao, upon seeing the two entering, plastered a smile on her face, hurriedly got up to let them sit, engaging them in some family conversations.

Shi Nuan remained silent, while Song Yansheng exchanged pleasantries with his mother, and Song Qingyang, after just calling out "Second Uncle", sat silently on the side, his eyes still red.

Yu Yao’s attitude towards Shi Nuan was relatively kind. After speaking a few words with her son, she began chatting with Shi Nuan.

Being the elder, she had visited Song Yichuan before, so Shi Nuan was very respectful to her, responding to each of her questions.

Yu Yao said, "I always knew Nuannuan was a good, obedient child. With you taking care of A Yu in the future, I can be at ease!"

Shi Nuan wanted to say that Song Yansheng really didn’t need her care; rather, she was the one being taken care of more often.

But these words, she didn’t want to say for now, especially because of Song Qingyang, she always felt sorry to Song Yichuan.

The guilt in her heart grew deeper every time her gaze met with Song Qingyang’s.
