Chapter 1508: Chapter 1278: He Will Always Stay by Her Side

Song Yansheng could fully understand Shi Nuan’s feelings.

What he’d been through was no less than what Shi Nuan had suffered, in fact far more perilous.

Because Song Zhongming not only wanted to kill his Father, he wanted to kill him too.

The first time, he meticulously arranged a car accident to run him down; by sheer luck he ran into six-year-old Shi Nuan and was saved.

His mother, in order to protect him, had him pretend to be stupid, hoping this could dispel Song Zhongming’s suspicions,

but it didn’t work. Song Zhongming lured him, locked him in a cold-storage room; if Song Yichuan hadn’t accidentally saved him, he’d have frozen to death.

His mother was helpless and could only send him abroad, but even overseas, it still wasn’t safe.

If Yan Ke hadn’t been protecting him at all times, he didn’t know how many times he would have died.

He hated Song Zhongming, hated that he couldn’t send him to hell; he deeply understood Shi Nuan’s thoughts and knew what Shi Nuoxin felt inside.

If killing people in this world weren’t against the law, he’d want to hack to pieces all those who hurt him and hurt Shi Nuan.

But right now, all he could do was hold Shi Nuan tightly, use his embrace to tell her: You still have me. No matter what we go through in the future, we’ll shoulder it together.

He hoped Shi Nuan could understand that anyone else in this world might leave her, but he never would.

Yes, only he never would. He would stay by her side forever and ever.

...

Shi Jiaojiao and Yao Shuyan arrived about half an hour after Song Yansheng went upstairs.

A servant came upstairs to ask Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan to go down; Song Yansheng took Shi Nuan’s hand, a questioning look in his eyes.

He asked Shi Nuan, "Go down now, or wait a bit?"

Shi Nuan’s thin lips moved slightly as she said, "Now."

No matter how much hatred was surging in her at this moment, how much she was losing control, she couldn’t afford to lose her composure.

Even knowing it was Li Guirong, she still needed evidence.

Yes, she needed evidence, something that could topple Li Guirong in one stroke and make her pay for her mother’s death.

When the two of them went downstairs, the lower floor was a scene of lively bustle.

Standing at the staircase, Shi Nuan looked over, and her gaze naturally locked onto Li Guirong.

It was obvious Li Guirong really liked Yao Shuyan and was being very warm to him.

Shi Nuan very much wanted to sneer. In her impression, although Shi Jiaojiao was Li Guirong’s daughter, Li Guirong had never been particularly fond of Jiaojiao.

If she truly liked her, how could she have given birth to her and then dumped her on her own mother to raise for twelve years?

He had only lost an unborn child, and upon finding out was already heartbroken; how could Li Guirong bear to send away her own daughter?

Moreover, even when she finally brought Shi Jiaojiao back, it was only because she wanted to use Jiaojiao and Tian Chao to tie Father down.

Now Shi Nuan already knew Tian Chao wasn’t Father’s biological son, though Shi Jiaojiao probably was.

The people downstairs, seeing Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan, felt the originally lively, warm atmosphere freeze for a split second.

In the end it was Shi Yuanbo who broke the stalemate, smiling as he said, "I forgot to tell you two, Nuannuan and Yansheng are back today as well. Let’s have a proper family meal together!"

Shi Jiaojiao rolled her eyes, a bit disdainful. Yao Shuyan, on the other hand, was quite composed, a faint smile on his face.

Li Guirong smiled at this moment and said, "Jiaojiao, what are you standing there for? Hurry and greet your sister and Mr. Song!"

Shi Jiaojiao didn’t like Shi Nuan, but she still didn’t dare act up in front of Song Yansheng. She quickly stood up, pasted on a smile, and said to the two coming down the stairs, "Nuannuan, Mr. Song, you’re here—welcome, welcome!"

Shi Nuan didn’t respond. Song Yansheng’s lips curved slightly as he said mildly, "Miss Shi, you’re too polite. But this is the Shi Family, and Nuannuan’s surname is Shi as well. This is her home too. She’s merely coming home; saying ’welcome’ is a bit overdone, isn’t it?"

Shi Jiaojiao let out an awkward laugh and said, "I...I just spoke without thinking. It’s mainly because Nuannuan hardly comes home, I always forget there’s still this person in the family."

"Really?" Song Yansheng’s voice was cool. "In fact, I’d very much like for Nuannuan to come back often. But after what happened with her falling into the water last time, I feel really uneasy, always thinking there are too many messy people in the Shi Family."

These words from Song Yansheng were undoubtedly a threat, because Shi Nuan’s fall into the water last time had been because of Shi Jiaojiao.

Shi Jiaojiao’s heart gave a jolt, especially when she thought of how that incident had caused Shi Nuan to lose a child.

If Song Yansheng ever found out, none of their family would live.

She suddenly didn’t know what to say. Li Guirong hurriedly stood up to smooth things over, saying, "Nuannuan, Mr...Mr. Song, whatever you have to say, sit down and talk. Standing around like this isn’t right either!"

She then called to the servant, "Quick, brew another pot of Tieguanyin, and pour some for Mr. Song and Nuannuan!"
