Reborn in the 90s, tearing apart scumbag men for the sake of women.

"How did Ma Xiaodong come to know Fang Guanghua?" Qiao Nansheng finally found the time to ask the question that had been on his mind.

"I don't know her. I just used to pick up clients," Song Lingge said casually.

After saying that, Song Lingge thought for a moment and decided to tell Qiao Nansheng everything to avoid him overthinking it.

“My dad is a meticulous and cautious person; he has to verify everything himself. Today, he happened to see Zhou Songmei and Ma Xiaodong exchanging a few words downstairs at the hospital, and he couldn’t wait to find out the truth. Of course, I couldn’t refuse him!”

"Did you arrange for Zhou Songmei to go too? How did you know she would go to the hospital today?"

"You overestimate me. This was purely accidental. But before deciding to carry out this plan, I had already shown Xiaodong photos of them, so what happened downstairs at the hospital today was a real surprise. My dad saw Zhou Songmei talking to him, and whatever they were talking about, he was definitely excited."

Song Lingge guessed that after Ma Xiaodong recognized Zhou Songmei, he must have made up some excuse, such as asking for directions, and casually said a few words, which happened to be seen by the father and daughter.

In the eyes of a shrewd and calculating person like Song Jianping, Zhou Songmei and Ma Xiaodong could talk about anything and everything, and build airplanes and cannons, but they could never just be strangers asking for directions.

Next, it's just a matter of going with the flow.

Coincidentally, it was Ma Xiaodong who told Song Lingge that Fang Guanghua had opened a shop on the next street.

Once, after delivering goods to "Song Shi Ji", Ma Xiaodong was stopped by Fang Guanghua, who asked him about some information regarding "Song Shi Ji's" procurement.

It was because of this that Song Lingge realized that Fang Guanghua had not been quiet during this time, but had been secretly observing her.

In his previous life, Fang Guanghua ran a cement factory and had never ventured into the catering industry.

Even Song Lingge wouldn't have opened a restaurant if it weren't for Song Jianmei's culinary skills.

Because of the butterfly effect caused by her rebirth, many people and things have been changed without her realizing it.

However, Fang Guanghua's decision to open a restaurant seems too obvious. Is he trying to squeeze her out of business? Or does he see her as a potential rival?

Regardless of the reason, I didn't want her to have an easy time.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that the shops were located on the next street?

Nanzhou is such a big city, why not open it anywhere else?

Song Lingge didn't tell Song Jianmei about this. As long as "Song Shi Ji" did business honestly, she wasn't afraid of Fang Guanghua's underhanded tactics.

"So you sent Ma Xiaodong to find Fang Guanghua?" Qiao Nansheng was somewhat impressed by the girl's foresight.

“How could I possibly know where Zhou Songmei is? But Fang Guanghua has been busy with renovations lately, so he’ll definitely be at the shop. He and Zhou Songmei are in cahoots, so seeing him is the same as seeing Zhou Songmei,” Song Lingge said smugly.

Actually, she took a gamble today, betting on her daughter's understanding of her father.

Song Jianping, the father, doesn't understand his daughter, but she, the daughter, cannot help but understand her father.

Fortunately, Lady Luck was on her side, and she won her gamble.

From then on, no matter what Zhou Songmei said or did, the blame for the car accident would fall on her shoulders.

However, Song Lingge couldn't guess whether Song Jianping would swallow his pride or fight to the death.

After all, Song Jianping only cares about himself.

“Next time you have a plan like this, you should tell me in advance. Have you ever considered that since Fang Guanghua has been monitoring you, he might discover your relationship with Ma Xiaodong?” Qiao Nansheng said.

Meeting his concerned gaze, Song Lingge nodded emphatically.

She had wondered if Qiao Nansheng would still be with her if he knew she had used so many schemes and tricks.

She didn't want to lie to him, because whether it was good or bad, that was the most authentic version of her.

Relationships built on lies and deception will ultimately fail.

Song Lingge hopes that she and Qiao Nansheng can have a future.

Whenever Qiao Nansheng asked, she would always explain her plan without any embellishment, just to observe Qiao Nansheng's attitude.

Qiao Nansheng did not disappoint her; he was on her side.

"I'll call Xiaodong later. We won't meet unless absolutely necessary. We'll communicate by phone about everything," Song Lingge said solemnly.

Qiao Nansheng nodded in satisfaction, a beautiful smile curving his lips.

Song Lingge suddenly felt a pang of unease; she had a feeling that she had been tricked.

"You open a shop, and Fang Guanghua opens a shop too. I wonder if he'll cause trouble." Qiao Nansheng immediately changed the subject when he saw Song Lingge's probing gaze.

"Who cares! I'm just afraid he won't do anything bad!"

If he doesn't do anything malicious, how can I use legal means to make him pay the price he deserves?

“That’s true, anyway, I’m here with you now,” Qiao Nansheng said confidently.

Song Lingge secretly rolled her eyes. Men can be really dangerous when they get arrogant!

When she was attacked by the blond-haired man last time, she realized that if it came down to a real fight, Qiao Nansheng might not be her match.

So after that incident, she secretly made up her mind that she would protect Qiao Nansheng well in the future.

His hands not only shielded her from knives, but also from sticks.

She would never let him get hurt again.

"By the way, you're back in China now, and you'll be doing your internship next semester. Do you have any plans yet?" Song Lingge changed the subject.

Changing the subject isn't a skill unique to Qiao Nansheng.

Qiao Nansheng blinked, putting on a pitiful and aggrieved look: "How could anyone be as amazing as Song? She opened several shops before even graduating, and she's already published a novel. She'll definitely be a renowned writer both at home and abroad in the future. She can only rely on you from now on."

Before he could finish speaking, Qiao Nansheng saw Zhao Zhangguo and Lin Xiuzhi standing at the door, trying not to laugh.

Overwhelmed with shame and indignation, Qiao Nansheng lost his footing and fell off the stool.

“Nansheng—” Song Lingge exclaimed in surprise.

She ran over anxiously, and Zhao Zhangguo and Lin Xiuzhi quickly came into the house as well.

Fortunately, Qiao Nansheng fell onto the bed next to him.

The four men exchanged glances, and apart from Qiao Nansheng, the other three could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.

For the first time, Qiao Nansheng, a prodigy, had the thought of finding a hole to crawl into.

"Nansheng, we just arrived and didn't hear anything. Really, old man, didn't you hear anything either?" Lin Xiuzhi was still concerned about her future grandson-in-law.

“Yes…hahaha…didn’t hear…hahaha…really didn’t hear…hahahaha…” Zhao Zhangguo replied.

His answer made Qiao Nansheng feel even more ashamed than if he hadn't answered at all.

Lin Xiuzhi couldn't help but slap him, not caring that his laughter would disturb her beloved grandson-in-law's ears.

"Grandpa Zhao, Grandma Lin, I...I'll head back now." Qiao Nansheng's face was flushed as he quickly left the troublesome place after saying this.

If time could be turned back three hours, he would definitely not have had the idea of ​​going to Song Lingge's boudoir.
