Chapter 184: Brother Chulang Is This Your Girlfriend?

An awkwardness flashed past Song Yunyang’s face.

Song Chulang took the box from her hands and stuffed it into Grandma Song’s hands. “Grandma, Yunyang also wanted to buy it for you in China. It’s just that she’s been wandering abroad with the medical team all these years and only came back now. This is a representation of her consideration for you; just accept it.”

Seeing that everyone’s eyes were on her, Grandma Song accepted it with a frown and said after that, “Alright, since everyone is here, let’s eat.”

Perhaps it was because there was one more person, but the Song Family relatives weren’t as lively as before.

Song Huaisheng’s friend who came, on the contrary, asked with a smile, “Old Song, is this lady here a niece of yours?”

Song Huaisheng looked at the person sitting beside Song Chulang silently for a while before saying, “No, she’s my adopted daughter.”

“So you actually have a daughter.” The friend understood and wanted to probe further, but suddenly, another friend beside him elbowed him softly, carrying a hint of warning in his eyes.

He was stunned and quickly stopped probing.

At the huge table, other than Song Qiaoqiao, only the other two children of the Song Family were making a din.

“Brother Chuyi, I want to eat the fish.”

“Brother Chuyi, I want to eat the prawn. Peel it for me.”

When Song Chuyi finally got her the food, Song Qiaoqiao put all the food into his bowl. “I don’t want it anymore. Brother Chuyi, help me eat them all.”

Fourth Aunt stared at her. “Qiaoqiao, don’t bother your Brother Chuyi.”

“It’s okay,” Song Chuyi said gently.

After the meal, Song Chuyi volunteered to play cards with the Song Family’s friends and relatives.

Halfway through, Song Huaisheng said to Song Yunyang, “Come upstairs with me.”

“I’ll come along.” Song Chulang stood up immediately.

Song Huaisheng gave him a deathly stare but he didn’t back down. In the end, he had no choice but to call both of them upstairs.

“Chuyi, why are you spacing out? It’s your turn,” Song Junle said with annoyance as he knocked on the playing table.

Song Chuyi snapped out of his trance and chose a card to discard.

After around half an hour, Song Huaisheng and the other two came down from upstairs.

Song Chuyi took out the last few bills in his wallet. Song Junle said merrily as he accepted them: “Your hands were a little bad today; you lost everything. Give up your seat and step aside.”

Song Chuyi licked his lips awkwardly. Song Zhengru, who was at the side, suddenly said, “Do you still want to play? I’ll lend some money to you.”

“Sure,” Song Chuyi said.

…

They were playing until after ten at night when the sound of the car engine came from outside once again.

Grandma Song stood up suddenly with a smile. “It must be Changqing.”

Because of her words, the living room suddenly became quiet. Dai Ai glanced at Song Yunyang opposite her, who had her head down all this time, and agreed with a smile, “It must be.”

After a few minutes, Changqing appeared at the door in her heels. She was wearing her new Fendi set that she bought in Hong Kong a few days ago. The top was a sweet and cute shirt with embroidery and a hotfix rhinestone while the bottom was a short, pre-washed denim skirt. She had a very good figure and this set of clothes accentuated her curves. This intended cute style had an alluring flavor when she wore it.

Changqing’s amorous eyes surveyed the living room. When she saw that there were still so many people, she felt a little awkward and uneasy. However, since she was a host, after all, she still walked over to Grandma Song quickly and said with a smile, “Grandma, happy birthday. I’m sorry I came so late. I wanted to come over earlier but there were several hiccups during the program recording.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Grandma Song held her hand as she said with a smile, “I wanted to wait for you before we cut the cake, but the children kept saying they wanted to eat it, so the cake was cut first. Grandma saved a piece for you.”

As she said that, she signaled the servants to bring the cake over quickly.

Grandma Song said, “This was custom-made and flown over from abroad by Chuyi’s aunt for me. It tastes really good.”

Dai Ai teased, “The children all wanted another piece, but Grandma didn’t allow them.”

“Grandma, you’re the best to me.” Changqing tried a little of the cake. Actually, she had lived in a good environment since she was young and had tried various delicacies inside and outside the country. Although the cake tasted good, she had had it before, but to make the old grandma happy, she still acted the part. “It’s really good.”

“Can I have some too?” Just then, a round little head came over.

Changqing looked at this little girl that looked like a fluffy meatball in front of her and quickly took a new spoon to feed her the cake. “Wow, you’re really cute. What’s your name?”

Song Qiaoqiao chewed on the cake while replying with her voice muffled, “I’m Song Qiaoqiao, but you can call me Qiaoqiao. Are you Brother Chuyi’s pretty little sister? Why did he say that you’re like me? I don’t agree. I was worrying that Brother Chuyi was in a May-December romance.”

Changqing watched this five-year-old little girl with cream all around her mouth in disbelief. Song Chuyi actually said she was like this girl?

What kind of eyes did he have?

May-December romance?

This little kid was really mature.

“Of course not,” she said, bracing herself. “I’m much older than you, so we’re definitely not in a May-December romance.”

Little kid Song Qiaoqiao nodded and was reassured. “Then when are you going to have a baby? I want to become an aunt. Several little kids in our kindergarten have already become aunts.”

What a mature aunt.

Changqing felt awkward once again. This was definitely a daughter of one of Song Chuyi’s uncles. However, if she was this young, it had to be his Fourth Uncle.

“I’ll try, hehehe.”

Dai Ai, who was at the side, broke into a laugh. “Even Qiaoqiao is hurrying you two. It looks like you definitely have to put in more effort.”

Changqing’s face blushed. Every time she came over, she faced the problem of having a baby.

She lifted her head and looked around with difficulty. Song Chuyi was still playing cards and didn’t even come over to greet her. She was a little annoyed. She looked towards Song Chulang’s side and her eyeballs almost fell out. Song Chulang actually brought a lady over and she looked quite delicate. Under the crystal lights, her long hair was glowing like black satin. Her skin wasn’t milky white like hers and it was more honey-colored, looking very healthy. She was wearing simple jeans and looked like an undergraduate. She was looking at Changqing with a very strange gaze.

She blinked and suddenly said, “Oh, I’ve seen you before.”

Song Yunyang was in a daze. Song Chulang’s face sank slightly. “What are you saying?”

“We honestly met two days ago at the airport.” Changqing said with a smile, “I was with Yan Molun.”

Song Yunyang was stunned once again. She recalled carefully and suddenly remembered that two days ago, Yan Molun was beside a woman wearing a mask and sunglasses. She even mistook her to be Yan Molun’s girlfriend. Never did she expect…

She had always known that Yan Molun and Song Chuyi were friends for a long time and normal people had no right to be allocated Yan Molun, unless…

She felt a ripping pain in her heart.

She continued to stare at Changqing.

Changqing felt a little bewildered from her gaze. Just then, Dai Ai said with a smile, “She is Huaisheng’s adopted daughter.”

“Oh.” Changqing came to a realization. She recalled that Song Chuyi had a family portrait on the bedside table and there seemed to be a sister there. However, she wasn’t good at recognizing faces and couldn’t remember what she looked like. “Hello, I’m Yan Changqing.”

“Chuyi, Changqing is here. What do you look like, still playing cards over there?” Grandma said to the few men playing cards at the other side.

Song Chuyi’s clear voice drifted over. “Grandma, I’ll come over after I’m done with this hand.”

Song Qiaoqiao, who was beside Changqing, held her hand suddenly and said with a smile, “I’ll bring you over to Brother Chuyi. He lost a lot of money tonight and borrowed lots from my father.”

“Alright.” Changqing felt that the atmosphere was weird and allowed Song Qiaoqiao to pull her away.

At Song Chuyi’s side, Song Junle beckoned her, saying, “You came at the right time. Chuyi borrowed a lot of money from Fourth Uncle; why don’t you pay him back?”

Changqing was embarrassed.

A lot of money. How much was that?

She always only had a few hundred dollars in her wallet.

If she had known earlier, she would’ve just stayed where she was.

“Forget it.” Song Chuyi smiled lightly. “She never brings cash with her. If you said payment by card, she would still do it.”

“Yeah.” Changqing touched the back of her head in embarrassment. She lowered her head and saw that Song Chuyi had lost another hand. It looked like their bets were quite big, winning and losing a few thousand each hand.

She felt pained just watching from the side.

“I’ll stop. I’m broke.” Song Chuyi stood up and said to Song Chulang, “Bro, why don’t you play?”

“I don’t play.” Song Chulang shook his head.

“Then we’re short one player.” Song Junle blinked.

“Then stop playing.” Grandma Song said, “Tt’s not early anymore, and the children have to sleep too.”

“Then we’ll play again next time.” Song Zhengru stood up and picked his daughter up. “Qiaoqiao, shall we go home?”

“No. Can I sleep with Brother Chuyi?” Song Qiaoqiao said with a pout.

“Your Brother Chuyi is afraid of you already.” Fourth Aunt said with a smile, “When you slept with Brother Chuyi during the new year, you kept crying for me in the middle of the night and made him unable to sleep well.”

Song Qiaoqiao snorted.

The guests left successively. Tonight’s star, Grandma Song, and Dai Ai also went back to their rooms.

The living room was left with Song Chulang, Song Yunyang, Song Huaisheng and a few others.

Song Chuyi took a sip of tea and said, “Let’s go back to our room too.”

“Sure.” Changqing wanted to rest too.

When they were going upstairs, she had the feeling that there were several eyes watching them. She didn’t turn her head back for fear that she would accidentally meet Song Chulang’s eerie gaze.

Back in the room, she quickly shut the door and locked it, asking, “Does Grandma like the necklace?”

“Yes.” Song Chuyi went straight to the bathroom without looking back.

Changqing touched the back of her head. What was with him these past two days? Usually, he would carry her to shower together the moment they entered the room unless he was very tired. Perhaps he was in a bad mood from losing too much money at the card game.

She felt it was very probable. Hence, when Song Chuyi came out from the shower with a towel wrapped around him, she quickly said, “Chuchu, actually, it’s okay. Everyone has bad hands. You will definitely win next time.”

Song Chuyi glanced at her and sighed in his heart. “I got it. Go shower quickly.”
