The matriarch has returned; that spendthrift son is truly daring!

Bai Sheng knew, of course, who she had come for, and felt sorry for his sister; this guy was not worth her sincere devotion.

Song Shuyue sat down in a chair, picked up her tea and took a sip, then slowly said, "I'm here today not to discuss the annulment of the engagement. I can state the Song family's position here: the Song family will not annul the engagement. Miss Bai has been kind to the Song family, and we will not be ungrateful. The medicine is just a small contribution we should make. We hope Miss Bai can recover soon. If, after Miss Bai recovers, she feels that Song Zixuan is not suitable for her, then she can come to the Song family to annul the engagement, and we will have absolutely no objection."

Song Shuyue's words surprised everyone, except for Song Zixuan. She vaguely sensed Song Shuyue's plan and wondered what she had said to his grandparents before leaving last night.

His grandparents demanded that he obey them and not utter a single word of dissent.

“We understand Miss Song’s feelings, but I don’t think Song Zixuan is willing. Didn’t he want to marry another woman before? My Bai family is not the kind of people who are shameless. If Song Zixuan likes someone else, then the marriage should be called off,” Bai Sheng said.

Bai Lingling clenched her fists. She didn't want to break off the engagement, but she was in this state.

Madam Bai tugged at her son's hand and gave him a look, signaling him to shut up.

She understood her daughter's thoughts better than anyone, and given her current health condition, a marriage alliance with Song Zixuan would be the best option, a win-win situation.

Song Zixuan broke his silence and stepped forward, saying loudly, "I, Song Zixuan, will not annul the engagement. It was a misunderstanding before. I apologize."

Song Zixuan is usually arrogant, so getting him to apologize won't be easy.

The way the Bai family looked at Song Shuyue was different now.

Indeed, age doesn't mean anything.

Song Shuyue: "Then we won't bother you any longer. Farewell, Song Zixuan, let's go."

Bai Lingling watched their retreating figures, and the joy in her eyes transformed her entire being, making her seem as cheerful as she had been three years ago.

Bai Sheng patted her shoulder, "Your blood is cleared, you'll get better soon, and then you'll be just like before, Lingling, don't worry."

Bai Lingling nodded emphatically; she was determined to recover fully.

Touching the ancient jade in his hand, Song Zixuan, if you no longer feel guilty towards me, do you no longer want to fulfill the marriage agreement?

It's okay, I, Bai Lingling, will definitely not force you when the time comes.

You don't need to tell me, I will naturally call off the engagement.

Song Zixuan drove without saying a word. Song Shuyue teased, "What? Scared?"

Song Zixuan gripped the steering wheel tightly. "Afraid! What are you talking about? How could I be afraid?" He exhaled a breath of stale air and said in a deep voice, "Song Shuyue, thank you for today."

He then realized the immense pressure his parents had faced to smooth things over for him, and he also understood Bai Lingling's pain, realizing it was due to his immaturity and recklessness.

Song Shuyue: "At least you still have some conscience. Take me home; I have school tomorrow."

This tone made Song Zixuan curious. "Song Shuyue, do you talk to everyone like this? It feels like you're the elder. You're not polite to my grandparents at all. You're even more arrogant than me."

Song Shuyue glanced out the window. "You wouldn't believe me even if I told you, so why bother explaining and wasting my breath?"

The next day, as soon as Song Shuyue entered the classroom, she saw her name written on the blackboard, covered with foul language. Her eyes darkened, and she went straight in to tell the principal and others, demanding that they check the surveillance footage and call the police.

The school naturally wouldn't call the police; they treated it as a minor squabble between classmates and dealt with it perfunctorily.

Shen Heming was still the most useful person at crucial moments.

Shen Heming is a university professor and a shareholder of the school. With just one sentence, the principal dared not say anything more and immediately acted according to his instructions. Unexpectedly, Song Shuyue was actually one of Shen Heming's people. It seems that he cannot easily offend her in the future.

Su Nian didn't expect Song Shuyue's background to be so powerful. She found them so quickly. Not only would they have to apologize, but they might also face expulsion.

Looking at these unfamiliar faces, Song Shuyue asked directly, "I have no connection with you, and I don't remember having any conflicts with you. Why are you targeting me?"

Su Nian bit her lip and didn't speak. It was her two best friends who spoke first, "It's our fault. Please forgive us for a while. Fu Yuyao is Su Nian's fiancé. We saw you getting close to him yesterday, so we... We're sorry."

Song Shuyue finally understood and her gaze fell on Su Nian.

Tears welled up in Su Nian's eyes, and she sobbed, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, but I can't be fired, I'm sorry."

Song Shuyue didn't intend to dwell on it too much. However, since this was the first time she had dealt with the incident, if she didn't handle it, she would face a lot of trouble.

"This is a one-time exception. Let's go."

Song Zixuan arrived on time to pick her up. "Are we going out for dinner again today?" Song Zixuan asked excitedly.

Song Shuyue's lips twitched slightly, and a hint of annoyance and amusement appeared in her eyes. Someone was trying to take advantage of her, after spending so much of her money yesterday.

"No! Let's go to the noodle shop by the roadside."

"Huh? You're so stingy! I kindly picked you up from school, and all you do is treat me to a bowl of noodles? Song Shuyue, I want to eat at Jingge!"

Song Shuyue looked at him with a smile and said, "Sure, you can treat me."

Song Zixuan: "I know a noodle shop that has really good food."

After eating the noodles, Song Shuyue suggested watching their car race. Song Zixuan was overjoyed, "Let me tell you, you've come to the right person. I'm a professional, and I guarantee I can show you the most exciting and thrilling race."

Song Shuyue asked, "How's your skill?"

Song Zixuan was a little embarrassed. "To be honest, I competed once before and almost didn't make it out of the gates of hell. Since that day, my dad has forbidden me from touching it, and only allowed me to look at it."

Song Shuyue: "Your father's decision was correct; you were just unlucky."

Song Zixuan: "..." Don't scare him.

Night falls

As soon as Song Zixuan's car stopped, several people gathered around. They were all stunned when they saw Song Shuyue; what a beautiful young girl.

So young.

"Young Master Song, you've arrived! Quickly, quickly pour Young Master Song some wine. And who is this beautiful lady?"

Just as Song Zixuan was about to make an introduction, Song Shuyue walked over, calmly sat down, and said to the person next to her, "A glass of juice, please."

The group laughed awkwardly.

Song Zixuan: "I brought her here to see who's competing tonight?"

"Young Master Song, tonight it's Ah Hu and Ah Hua. Which one do you think is the better choice?"

Just as Song Zixuan was about to speak, Song Shuyue interrupted him, saying, "Not one. Song Zixuan, sit down."

Although Song Zixuan was itching to try it, he decided against it because he remembered his promise to her.

Tonight, we'll do as she says.

"Let's see first."

"Yes, Young Master Song!" The men's expressions were not good. This sucker wasn't paying, so where were they going to get the money? It seemed they would have to resort to some serious measures.
