After leaving his father behind, the son of a prominent figure in Beijing's elite circles has g

The woman had her back to Rong Zheng, so Rong Zheng couldn't see her face. She could only see her tall and slender figure, with her hair half-tied up in a princess style, wearing a flowing off-the-shoulder white gauze dress. As she walked backward, she exuded a playful and lively charm.

Rumor has it that Song Shiyan is not interested in women, and this is the first time Rong Zheng has seen a woman with him who can enter and leave his residence. Their relationship must be quite special.

People in high positions like Song Shiyan should keep their private lives confidential.

Thinking of this, Rong Zheng immediately turned around, pretending not to see anything, and was about to leave when Song Shiyan's deep and clear voice came from behind her.

"Rong Zheng".

Rong Zheng froze, a hint of distress flashing in her eyes. Are all the big shots this good?

After a two-second pause, she turned around, looked at Song Shiyan, and greeted him with a smile, "Big Brother."

Wei Shuyan turned around, her gaze sweeping over Rong Zheng before turning to Song Shiyan. "Brother Shiyan, who is she?"

The woman turned around, and Rong Zheng saw her face. She was very beautiful, with eyes like gems soaked in spring water, clear and bright. Her face was full of collagen, making her look very young, probably just over 20 years old.

Song Shiyan parted his thin lips slightly: "Pei Chuan's wife."

Wei Shuyan looked at Rong Zheng again, "So you're from the Lu family." She walked up to Rong Zheng, extended her hand, and said, "Hello, my name is Wei Shuyan."

Rong Zheng shook hands with her politely, "Hello, Rong Zheng."

"Are you here to see Shi Yan?"

When Rong Zheng saw Wei Shuyan ask this question, Song Shiyan also looked at her and quickly waved his hand, "No, I was taking a walk, and I just ended up here."

"We're going to Grandma Shen's place, would you like to come with us?" Wei Shuyan asked enthusiastically.

Rong Zheng didn't want to be a third wheel and was about to refuse when Song Shiyan spoke up first, "It's almost lunchtime, why don't we go together?"

Rong Zheng blinked, somewhat bewildered.

Both of them are so open and honest, could it be that their relationship isn't like that? Or is she misunderstanding?

Since the big boss had spoken, she didn't dare to refuse and nodded, "Okay."

The three of them walked together toward the main building.

Wei Shuyan was very lively and took the initiative to walk with Rong Zheng. She was also very talkative. The two met for the first time and there was no sense of unfamiliarity between them. She asked Rong Zheng if she was used to the place and shared with her some fun places to visit.

Wei Shuyan is clearly very familiar with this place and must come here often.

Wei Shuyan chattered incessantly throughout the journey, but it wasn't noisy; instead, it felt very intimate.

Song Shiyan lagged a few steps behind them.

Perhaps it was because the big shot's presence was so strong that Rong Zheng always felt like someone was staring at her from behind, and her body unconsciously tensed up.

Zhutingxuan is very close to the main building; it's just a few minutes' walk away.

When the three entered the living room, Shen Qiuxian was sitting on the sofa watching TV. The classic Kunqu opera "A Dream in the Garden" was playing on the TV, and its delicate and melodious tune filled the entire living room.

Wei Shuyan happily ran to sit down next to Shen Qiuxian, hugged her arm, and sweetly said, "Grandma Shen, happy birthday, and may you live a long and healthy life!"

Shen Qiuxian smiled knowingly. "When did you arrive?"

The maid paused the television at the appropriate time so they could talk.

"I just arrived a little while ago," Wei Shuyan said, glancing at Song Shiyan. "I came with Brother Shiyan."

Shen Qiuxian looked at her grandson with some surprise, "How did you run into Yan'er?"

Wei Shuyan smiled at Shen Qiuxian, "It wasn't a chance encounter, it was Brother Shiyan who specially went to pick me up."

Shen Qiuxian was even more surprised. The Song family and the Wei family had always been on good terms, and the elders of both families had tried to match Song Shiyan and Wei Shuyan up, but Song Shiyan refused outright, saying that he only regarded Wei Shuyan as a younger sister.

But now he's personally picking her up, which is inconsistent with his usual aloofness towards women.

Shen Qiuxian looked at Song Shiyan, her eyes asking: What do you mean?

Song Shiyan said calmly, "As you wish."

Shen Qiuxian was amused upon hearing this, but then worried that she might have misunderstood. However, asking so bluntly in front of him would be very embarrassing if she were mistaken. So she stood up, pulled Song Shiyan aside, and asked in a low voice, "You want to choose Yan Yatou to be my granddaughter-in-law?"

Song Shiyan frowned. "Didn't you say we should make contact first?"

Since her grandson was finally willing to get close to a woman, Shen Qiuxian didn't dare to push too hard and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, let's get to know each other first. Feelings will develop eventually."

Song Shiyan didn't respond to Shen Qiuxian's words, but only said, "Remember to take your medicine on time."

"I'll eat, I definitely will. I still want to hold my great-grandchild." Shen Qiuxian smiled broadly after confirming, then turned around and sat down next to Wei Shuyan. She also waved to Rong Zheng, "Rong girl, what are you standing there for? Come and sit down."

Rong Zheng spoke up at the opportune moment: "May the old lady enjoy boundless happiness and longevity."

Shen Qiuxian smiled and nodded, "Okay, come and sit down."

Rong Zheng walked to the sofa and sat down, keeping a distance from Shen Qiuxian, deliberately leaving space for Shen Qiuxian and Wei Shuyan. It was clear that Shen Qiuxian had something to say to Wei Shuyan.

Unexpectedly, Shen Qiuxian's words stunned Rong Zheng.

She said, "Yan girl, you and Shi Yan should get along well. If he dares to bully you, just tell me, and I'll take care of him for you."

Rong Zheng: "..."

So their relationship is really unusual?

Are you dating?

But why don't they seem like a couple at all to her?

They were completely open and honest, without any of the flirtatious or shyness typical of romantic relationships.

Forget it, it's someone else's private matter, why should she care?

Rong Zheng tried to keep her eyes down and minimize her presence, but she felt as if a gaze was watching her.

She looked up to look for them, but Shen Qiuxian and Wei Shuyan were talking and not looking at her.

The servants stood at a distance, constantly watching what was happening to see if any service was needed, but their eyes were looking around rather than fixed on any one spot.

That leaves only Song Shiyan.

The man sat on a single sofa, looking down at his phone. His profile was deep and smooth, and his expression was serious and focused. It was clearly not him.

Was it just her imagination?

It was probably almost time to eat, because soon Lu Yunshan, Lu Peichuan, Bai Yuxiu, and Lu Xingyao arrived.

Rong Zheng had a bad feeling; Lu Xingyao was probably going to cause trouble.

As expected, Lu Xingyao's expression changed instantly when she learned that Wei Shuyan was Song Shiyan's girlfriend. She looked at Wei Shuyan with hostility, showing no restraint whatsoever. She even asked Song Shiyan in front of Wei Shuyan, "Brother Song, do you like the tie I gave you?"

When a woman gives a man a tie, it is considered a rather private and suggestive gift.

Unfortunately, Lu Xingyao asked the question in public, instantly making the atmosphere awkward.

Song Shiyan looked at Lu Xingyao with a calm gaze, his thin lips slightly pursed, clearly having no intention of speaking.

He said nothing, but a single glance was enough to show his stance.

Lu Yunshan, being a shrewd person, immediately smiled and smoothed things over, "Shi Yan, I asked Yao Yao to pick out the gift. She was just worried that she hadn't chosen a good one."

"grandfather……"

"Don't interrupt your elders!" Lu Yunshan coldly interrupted Lu Xingyao, his gaze serious and full of warning.

Lu Xingyao's eyes trembled with fright, she bit her lip and lowered her head.

Just then, the maid announced that the meal was ready and they could eat. The awkward atmosphere eased, and everyone got up and moved to the dining room.
