After moving in together, I was pampered by the big boss.

Before she could even take a step, she felt a blur flash before her eyes, and the next second her suitcase was in someone else's hands.

How... how did we get through that!

Lin Zuo noticed Uncle Li's surprised yet admiring gaze, and smugly flicked his non-existent bangs. He even winked at Uncle Li, thinking he was being incredibly charming.

Uncle Li: yue→_→

Uncle Li dared not look at this eyesore of a lunatic any longer. He turned his head and saw Song Chuxia approaching. He asked with concern, "Miss, what are you doing...?"

In this family, the person Song Chuxia misses the most is Uncle Li.

From the time she could remember, Uncle Li had been taking care of her in the Song family.

Uncle Li attended every parent-teacher meeting that Song Ren missed.

Compared to Song Ren, in Song Chuxia's heart, Uncle Li was more like a qualified father.

As their parting was imminent, Song Chuxia hugged Uncle Li tightly, throwing herself into his arms. Her voice was trembling with tears as she said, "Uncle Li, I'm going to Nancheng with Brother Tang Yu. I might not be coming back. Please take good care of yourself."

When Uncle Li heard her say that, his eyes instantly reddened.

The Song family is indeed in a bit of a mess right now. The young lady is naive and simple-minded, and she's bound to suffer if she stays at home.

So even though he was very reluctant to part with him, Uncle Li didn't say a word to persuade him to stay.

But she mustered up her courage and asked Tang Yu in front of him, "Miss, is this Second Master Tang trustworthy?"

Song Chuxia nodded, wiping away her tears. "Yes, Brother Tang Yu is my brother's good friend. It was also my brother who asked him to take me to Nancheng."

"That's good!" Uncle Li was relieved to hear that it was Chu Ze who had given the instructions.

He held Song Chuxia's hand and patted it, "Miss, hurry up and go! Don't forget to call home to let us know you're safe when you get there."

"Yes!" Song Chuxia replied, crying.

After the two said goodbye, Tang Yu asked Lin Zuo to write down a phone number and give it to Uncle Li.

He spoke with respect.

"You've worked so hard taking care of Chuxia all these years. Chu Ze told me that it was because you were willing to stay in the Song family that he dared to leave with peace of mind."

Chu Ze and I will remember this kindness. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, or if you are willing to go to Nancheng, please be sure to make this call.

We will arrange everything.

Uncle Li dared not accept Tang Yu's respectful address. He accepted the note with trepidation, "Thank you, Second Master. Madam Song has been kind to me, and I am paid by the Song family, so it is only right that I take care of Miss. It is nothing more than a favor."

"From now on, we'll entrust our young lady to the Second Master."

Tang Yu patted Uncle Li on the shoulder and nodded in agreement, "Don't worry!"

Lin Zuo could tell that the old man, like himself, was a loyal person. The scene of master and servant parting deeply moved him.

She cried even more bitterly than Uncle Li and Song Chuxia.

He followed Tang Yu, sobbing, and went over to pat Uncle Li on the shoulder, saying, "Don't worry!"

Uncle Li: (ー_ー)!!

Why am I suddenly not so at ease?

Having said all he needed to say, Tang Yu had no intention of lingering any longer. He turned and quickly left with Song Chuxia.

By the time Song Ren rushed back, everyone had already left.

They learned that Tang Yu had returned to Nancheng and taken Song Chuxia with him.

Song Ren was so angry that he overturned the table.

"What does Second Master Tang mean by this? I am Chuxia's father, after all. He took Chuxia away without even saying goodbye. Is this acceptable?!"

With Tang Yu and Song Chuxia leaving, all his plans came to naught.

How could Song Ren not be furious!

Uncle Li stood respectfully to the side, remaining calm and composed despite Song Ren's outburst.

He corrected her, "I heard from Miss that it was Young Master who asked Second Master Tang to take her to the South City."

Upon hearing this, Song Ren became even angrier.

"That unfilial son!"

Such a big decision was made without consulting him.

Damn it!

Song Ren was truly unwilling to accept this; he had really lost both his wife and his army this time.

Not only did they fail to gain any benefit from Tang Yu, they also lost Song Chuxia.

You should know that he had long planned for Song Chuxia's future.

Song Chuxia is beautiful and quite famous in Yuncheng. In the past two years, many people have been asking about her, both openly and secretly.

However, Song Ren was not satisfied with the conditions offered by these people, so he politely declined.

He figured Song Chuxia wouldn't reach the legal marriage age for another two years, so there was no rush.

He can take his time choosing.

Who would have thought that Tang Yu would pull this stunt on him?

Song Yueyan was also very anxious at this moment.

She went shopping for clothes in the afternoon. When she got home, she heard from the servants that Song Chuxia had left and that Song Ren had been very angry and hadn't even eaten dinner.

Although Fu Heng was sent back to Nancheng, his relationship with her was not affected.

She took the opportunity to inquire about Tang Yu and Chu Ze. Although Fu Heng didn't know much about them, it was enough.

Her original plan was to use Fu Heng's influence to return to the Song family, drive Song Chuxia away, seize the Song family's property, and then use the Song family's influence to marry into the Fu family.

Even if she can't benefit from both sides, she can at least gain something from one.

But after learning about Tang Yu and the Tang family's situation, she realized that her thinking was still too narrow-minded.

The Song family's meager assets were utterly insignificant compared to the powerful families of Nancheng.

Why doesn't she set her goals higher?

If you really think about it, Chu Ze is her biological brother!

Song Chuxia benefited from Chu Ze's relationship and received special attention from Tang Yu.

Why can't she?

As long as she has the opportunity to get close to Tang Yu, Song Yueyan believes that she can do better than Song Chuxia and win Tang Yu's favor even more.

But she needed an opportunity to get closer to Tang Yu.

Fu Heng is clearly not enough. Chu Ze is still abroad.

Song Chuxia was the best choice.

She had already planned to build a good relationship with Song Chuxia, and even picked out two clothes for Song Chuxia while shopping in the afternoon.

But she didn't expect the situation to change so quickly; Song Chuxia had actually left.

Wouldn't all her plans fall through?

How can this work!

After thinking for a while, Song Yueyan quickly came up with an idea.

She went to the kitchen, ladled out a bowl of chicken soup, carried it to the study door, and knocked.

Song Ren looked terrible, but when he opened the door and saw Song Yueyan, he barely managed to hold back his anger.

"It's you, Yueyan. What's wrong? Do you need to see Dad?"

Song Yueyan smiled and held up the chicken soup she was holding. "It's nothing. I just heard from the servants that you hadn't eaten dinner, so I brought you a bowl of chicken soup to check on you."

"You're so thoughtful!" Song Ren felt a little better at her considerate gesture and opened the door to let her in.

Song Yueyan sat obediently at her desk, very consciously avoiding looking at the confidential documents on it.

A smile remained on his lips as he gazed intently at Song Ren, as if Song Ren, his father, was the only person in his eyes and heart at that moment.

Song Ren was very satisfied with her performance.

So he also took the initiative to care about Song Yueyan.
