Chapter 80 It Can't Be Jiang Wang

The call was answered quickly.

Jiang Wang didn't turn on speakerphone, so Song Yan could only vaguely hear the female voice on the other end of the phone, but couldn't distinguish the tone.

Jiang Wang asked gently, "Baby, are you awake?"

This was the first time Song Yan had ever seen him be so gentle with someone else.

He scoffed inwardly; it was all just a trick to fool girls.

"Hmm." Si Yuan on the other end of the phone sounded a little tired. "Still drawing."

Jiang Wang smiled and said, "Don't overwork yourself, come out and relax tonight?"

Si Yuan was clearly taken aback: "What is it?"

“We have friends visiting Haicheng,” Jiang Wang said, his gaze seemingly casually sweeping over Song Yan. “Would you like to meet them?”

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone.

Si Yuan understood Jiang Wang's implication almost instantly—he was referring to Song Yan.

So, Song Yan has also come to the capital?

Is Jiang Wang trying to clarify their relationship?

That's true, they're getting married soon, there's no need to keep it a secret.

She instinctively wanted to escape.

But then I thought, no matter what, this matter will eventually have to be addressed openly and honestly.

Including Song Yan.

Actually, he's been unimportant for a long time.

So when you think about it carefully, whether he knows or not is not important at all.

Unimportant people don't need to be cared about.

Si Yuan took a deep breath and said softly, "If you want me to go, I will."

Jiang Wang tightened his grip on his phone slightly.

He originally just wanted to annoy Song Yan and make him uncomfortable; he never expected Si Yuan to agree.

But she... actually agreed.

Jiang Wang was momentarily stunned, and it took him a while to come to his senses. His heart was pounding like fireworks.

“Of course I want a title,” his voice was low and husky, with a hint of restrained excitement in his tone, “as long as you give it to me.”

Si Yuan could tell that Jiang Wang was very happy.

So, my little decision made him this happy?

Si Yuan couldn't help but smile. She hadn't realized before that Jiang Wang could be so adorable.

"Okay, I'll go over when I'm done with my work."

After hanging up the phone, Fang Yan was relieved to find that nothing had been discovered, but then Jiang Wang announced directly, "She'll be here tonight."

Fang Yan was immediately terrified, and a layer of cold sweat seeped out on his back.

He frantically winked at Jiang Wang, implying that he had gone too far.

Everyone in the industry knows how much Song Yan cares about his sister.

That year, her second year abroad, a rich kid who had followed Song Yan for many years got drunk and bragged to his friends that he had touched Si Yuan when he was in high school.

This matter eventually reached Song Yan's ears.

Not long after, the spoiled brat couldn't make a living in Haicheng, so he moved his whole family to Yunnan.

Their family background was also ruined, and they almost lost everything.

Fang Yan looked at Song Yan, who simply smiled faintly and said, "Okay."

He picked up his glass and took a sip, the amber liquid reflecting his unfathomable eyes: "See you tonight."

Jiang Wang smiled slightly but did not reply.

Fang Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief after Song Yan left.

He glanced at it and slowly began to clap his hands.

"Wonderful! You can remain completely calm and composed in front of your brother-in-law; your acting skills are impressive!"

“He’s not my brother-in-law.” Jiang Wang interrupted coldly, glancing at him disdainfully. “What kind of brother is he?”

Fang Yan raised an eyebrow: "So you still want to cooperate with him? I thought you wanted to smooth things over with the Song family in advance so you could marry Si Yuan later."

Jiang Wang suddenly stubbed out his cigarette, a ruthless glint in his eyes: "I promised Si Yuan that if she couldn't do it, I would do it for her."

He looked up at Fang Yan and said, slowly and deliberately, "Including destroying everyone who hurt her in the past."

Many things, which have been planned for so long, should have started long ago.

The temperature in the private room seemed to drop suddenly.

Fang Yan's smile froze on his face: "So... you deliberately had someone guide Song Yan to cooperate with you?"

Jiang Wang did not answer the question; everything was left unsaid.

He slowly straightened his cuffs and said, "I don't care whether he likes Si Yuan or not, nor do I care whether Si Yuan still likes him or not. But now that she's mine, I should take charge and let her vent her anger."

The Song family is nothing compared to him.

Fang Yan unconsciously swallowed.

He was all too familiar with Jiang Wang's expression; he always looked like this before he was about to do something big.

“By the way,” Jiang Wang suddenly smiled knowingly and looked at Fang Yan, “Isn’t Lin Shuangyu also in the capital? Why don’t we invite him over for some fun?”

Fang Yan gasped.

"Brother, are you going to go this far?"

Jiang Wang raised an eyebrow: "Yes, that's about the size."

——

Song Yan walked out of the private room, and the corridor lights cast a long shadow of him.

He stood by the window, his fingers trembling slightly as he dialed Assistant Qi's number.

"Have you found him?"

On the other end of the phone, Assistant Qi cautiously replied, "President Song, there's still no news..."

Song Yan closed his eyes briefly, a cold smile creeping onto his lips: "It's alright, keep looking."

He hung up the phone after saying that.

He gripped his phone so tightly that his knuckles turned bluish-white.

The gentle tone of Jiang Wang's voice when he called, and the word "baby" kept replaying in my mind.

It couldn't be Si Yuan.

Song Yan repeatedly told himself this.

How could Si Yuan be so familiar with Jiang Wang?

Why would she be willing to go home with him to meet his parents?

How could you... call her baby?

But if it really is her...

Song Yan's heart suddenly trembled violently, and an unprecedented panic swept through his body.

The sunlight outside the window stung his eyes.

Song Yan tried to raise his hand to cover his eyes, but what good would that do?

No matter how you try to hide it, you can't hide the terrifying thought that's becoming clearer and clearer in your heart.

If it really is Si Yuan, what should he do?

He could snatch her back from anyone and bring her home, but not Jiang Wang…

Therefore, that person cannot be Jiang Wang.

——

As night deepened, the clubhouse lights cast a mesmerizing glow on the glass curtain wall.

Jiang Wang pushed open the door and entered.

Song Yan had already arrived.

He sat alone in the corner of the private room, an unlit cigarette between his fingers.

The light from the crystal chandelier cast varying shades of shadow on his sharply defined profile.

Jiang Wang sat down opposite him with an air of nonchalance, his long legs casually crossed, and said with a smile, "You're here early, aren't you?"

Song Yan raised his eyes and glanced around behind Jiang Wang: "Your girlfriend didn't come?"

Jiang Wang slowly lit a cigarette, a playful smile curving his lips through the smoke: "What? You came all this way just to catch a glimpse of my girlfriend?"

Song Yan's fingers unconsciously stroked the cigarette, and after a while, he stiffly looked away: "No, I was just curious."

Fang Yan, feeling extremely uncomfortable, quickly raised his glass to smooth things over: "Oh dear, the girls haven't arrived yet, let's drink first!"

He winked at Jiang Wang, "My girlfriend is coming later, and she'll be bringing a few friends with her."

Jiang Wang gave Fang Yan a meaningful look and tapped the rim of his cup lightly with his fingertips: "So curious about other people's girlfriends, how come I didn't notice that Song Yan had this habit in college? It's quite interesting."

The atmosphere in the private room suddenly froze.

The cigarette in Song Yan's hand was suddenly snapped in half, and the tobacco shreds scattered on the dark marble tabletop.

Even if he wasn't sure whether Jiang Wang's girlfriend was Si Yuan or not, it was certain that Jiang Wang was very hostile towards him today.
