Chapter 46 What exactly did Lin Shuangyu do to Si Yuan?
As soon as I entered the house, I heard Song's mother's voice; she was talking to Lin Shuangyu.
"Auntie, you look beautiful in this bracelet!"
"Really? Shuangyu has such a sweet tongue!"
The two were chatting so enthusiastically that they didn't even notice Si Yuan had already entered.
It wasn't until Song Yan spoke that Song's mother looked over.
Lin Shuangyu stood behind Song's mother, his eyes devoid of yesterday's sarcasm, and as eager as the lady of the house.
Song's mother paused for a moment, then said, "Xiao Yuan is here, please sit down!"
Si Yuan nodded, put down what she was holding, and saw that Song's father had already sat down at the table.
He saw Si Yuan and smiled kindly. Si Yuan gently called him, "Dad."
Song's father looked at Song Yan behind Si Yuan.
Mr. Song was still angry about the time he hit Si Yuan.
It's no big deal that my friend entrusted his child to me on his deathbed; it's alright if he suffers a little hardship now and then.
But if you get beaten, the nature of the matter changes.
Si Yuan made such a big mistake back then
Song Yan was called over by his mother, and only the father and daughter were at the dining table.
Looking at Si Yuan's consistently obedient eyes, Song's father couldn't help but sigh: "If your brother dares to bully you again next time, tell Dad, and Dad will deal with him."
Si Yuan knew it was because Song Yan had slapped her at the hospital that day.
It's not that big, but it's not that small either.
After all, she had been beaten like this more than once before.
"It's okay, Dad, I'm used to it."
Mr. Song's expression changed: "Habit? He's hit you before?"
Song's father knew his son very well. He was always cautious and gentle and would never act rashly, especially towards Si Yuan.
Si Yuan smiled and shook her head, looking at Lin Shuangyu, who was continuing to chat with Song's mother in the living room.
"My brother knows that my sister-in-law liked to joke with me when we were in high school. Sometimes she would hit me too hard and it would hurt quite a bit."
Song's father's expression froze.
In an instant, he understood the meaning behind Si Yuan's words.
Before she could even ask any questions, Song's mother had already brought Lin Shuangyu over to sit down and showed Song's father her bracelet.
"Shuangyu bought this for me, isn't it pretty?"
Song's father shifted his gaze from Si Yuan to Lin Shuangyu.
"Yes, it looks good."
Lin Shuangyu knew that Song's father was always a man of few words, so he did not notice anything unusual.
However, Song Yan keenly noticed the hint of displeasure in his father's expression.
"Siyuan, what are you talking about with Dad?"
Si Yuan paused, looking at her brother innocently, "It's nothing, it's just that Dad asked me if I've been busy with work lately, and I said I've been quite busy, and I only slept for about two hours last night."
Only then did Song's mother notice the dark circles under Si Yuan's eyes. She frowned and hurriedly asked, "Is your work that busy?"
"Hmm." Si Yuan answered seriously, "The team's design drafts were already completed, but the client suddenly overturned everything, so I had to start over, and there wasn't enough time."
Lin Shuangyu's smile suddenly stopped.
She looked at Si Yuan warily.
Upon hearing this, Song Yan immediately understood.
He specifically instructed that Si Yuan should only be in charge of his engagement ceremony.
Lin Shuangyu also said that he went to discuss the details of the marriage proposal yesterday, and then promptly said that Lin Shuangyu had completely overturned it.
Unaware of the inside story, Song's mother felt indignant on Si Yuan's behalf: "Tell me, to tear down everything that's already finished, isn't that deliberately making things difficult for people? Don't you think that's unfair to Shuangyu?"
Lin Shuangyu snapped out of his daze, forced a smile, and nodded in agreement: "Yes."
Si Yuan looked at Lin Shuangyu and her smile was truly unsightly.
It's interesting that she can be so scared.
"I've already told you not to go to work. I'll have your brother at Song's company arrange any position for you. Wouldn't that be easier than being a junior designer?"
Si Yuan did not reply.
She didn't want to live off the Song family for the rest of her life.
He lived his entire life in the shadow of Song Yan and Lin Shuangyu.
Everyone except Song's mother ate the meal with their own thoughts on it.
Right after they finished eating, Song's father found an excuse to call Song Yan to the study.
Three women went downstairs and drank tea on the terrace.
Song Yan closed the study door, turned around, and met his father's cold, hard gaze.
"What's wrong, Dad?"
"You said before that Shuangyu, you, and Xiaoyuan all went to the same high school?"
Song Yan didn't understand yet. He went to the side, poured himself a glass of water, and nodded.
Did they know each other in high school?
Song Yan's hand holding the water glass suddenly stopped.
He took a small sip, not daring to look his father in the eye.
"Dad, what do you know?"
Mr. Song smiled coldly, it seemed that his guess was indeed correct.
"I don't know about what happened when you were little. Back then, I asked you to take good care of Si Yuan at school. What exactly did Lin Shuangyu do to Si Yuan?"
Song Yan remained silent.
No wonder my father's attitude towards Lin Shuangyu was a bit unusual at the dinner table just now.
Actually, he was unaware of what happened back then at first.
Lin Shuangyu is very good at hiding his true identity.
Later, Si Yuan came to her for help, saying that someone was bullying her, but when asked why, she gave vague answers.
Song Yan went to question Lin Shuangyu, but Lin Shuangyu cried first.
Then I took out that diary.
The moment Song Yan saw that diary was like a huge stone being thrown into a calm lake.
Shame, anger, rage.
His beloved younger sister, whom he had always cherished, actually harbored such feelings for him.
She even felt disgusted by Si Yuan and could no longer face her.
So they fled and turned a blind eye.
Lin Shuangyu promised him that she wouldn't go too far, just play around, hoping to make Si Yuan stop his overstepping thoughts.
That's all.
Song Yan thought it made sense.
That rainy day, she lay there, and there seemed to be blood on her ear. Only then did Song Yan realize that things seemed to be out of control.
What exactly did Lin Shuangyu do to Si Yuan?
Is this a bit serious?
But he didn't have the courage to investigate further.
If I help her up in the past, does that mean I also have such despicable thoughts?
Will others suspect that he is also a pervert who likes his own sister?
So even though Si Yuan looked at him pleadingly and mumbled "brother," he still left.
Just like at his birthday party that day, he left too.
Song Yan closed his eyes briefly and casually said, "What can girls do when they're just playing around?"
"But why does Xiaoyuan seem so afraid of Shuangyu?"
“Xiao Yuan has always been timid, as you know.”
Song's father lowered his eyes.
What Song Yan said makes sense.
Si Yuan, who was always introverted and timid, treated Song Yan somewhat differently.
If something serious really happens, Song Yan will definitely not ignore it.
"No matter what, you're both grown up now. I heard from your mother that Xiaoyuan and her boyfriend are planning to get married. You both need to be more mature and take care of each other."
Song Yan's eyes turned cold.
Is she married?
How could I possibly get married?
She has feelings for herself, feelings from childhood to adulthood, and who she can marry.
Song Yan knew perfectly well how much Si Yuan depended on him.
"I see."
