Chapter 993 Find a Way for the Couple
A mobile phone flew over, and Shi Lei felt a cold light in front of his eyes. He quickly reached out to block it, but the back of his hand hurt.
"Shi Lei, why are you talking to my dad! You are amazing, aren't you?"
Song Miaomiao roared and rushed down the stairs like a whirlwind. Before she could reach Shi Lei, she was already fighting Shi Lei with all her teeth and claws!
Seeing this, Wu You quickly stopped his daughter. Shi Lei took two steps back and said coldly: "Maybe my words are a bit unpleasant, but, Secretary Song, you..."
Song Miaomiao was stopped by Wu You, so she flew up with a kick and almost knocked Wu You to the ground.
Shi Lei took another step back and got out of the way of the furious Song Miaomiao. However, Song Miaomiao ignored her mother who almost fell down and rushed towards Shi Lei, raising her fist.
Suddenly, Song Ziyan shouted: "That's enough!"
Song Miaomiao was stunned on the spot, turned around and saw Song Ziyan walking down the stairs.
Song Ziyan said again: "Miaomiao, stand aside!"
Song Miaomiao glanced at her father, then at Shi Lei, lowering her voice, but unable to hide the anger in her tone: "Apologise to my dad!"
Shi Lei looked at Song Miaomiao and said calmly: "If Secretary Song needs this form, I can apologize to him, but I also hope you all understand that the Song family may not be as glorious as it used to be, but that doesn't mean that others owe you of."
Song Miaomiao became even more angry and raised her foot to kick Shi Lei. Song Ziyan said, "That's enough! Miaomiao, go upstairs with your mother!"
Wu You grabbed Song Miaomiao and whispered something. Song Miaomiao reluctantly followed Wu You towards the stairs, but before leaving, she still yelled at Shi Lei: "Apologise to my dad!"
Song Ziyan looked at the living room with a self-deprecating smile on his face. He shook his head, walked to the sofa and sat down.
Then, he raised his head and said, "Shi Lei, please give me a glass of water."
Shi Lei nodded, went to the kitchen to get a tea cup, and made Song Ziyan a cup of tea.
Song Ziyan took the tea cup, blew the tea leaves floating on it, took a sip, exhaled a long breath, relaxed his body slightly, and leaned on the back of the sofa.
Just as he was about to speak, the door rang and Shi Lei saw Fan Dongliu walking in from the door.
"Sir, do you have a guest?"
Shi Lei greeted Fan Dongliu and said, "Brother Dongliu, please go upstairs first. This is Miaomiao's father. I have something to talk with him."
Fan Dongliu also saw that the atmosphere in the living room was not right, and hurriedly walked upstairs. When passing by Song Ziyan, he stopped and nodded to Song Ziyan.
Song Ziyan took another sip of tea, put down the cup, and asked Shi Lei, "Is this your bodyguard?"
Shi Lei waved his hand and said: "No. Brother Fan's situation is more complicated, so I won't tell you more. He has just returned to China and will stay here for two days. After he gets used to it, he will go to Xicheng."
Song Ziyan nodded and asked no more questions. Fan Dongliu's appearance gave Song Ziyan the opportunity to speak calmly. He didn't really want to know who Fan Dongliu was.
"Sit down." Song Ziyan pointed to the empty seat next to him.
Shi Lei walked over and sat down and said, "Secretary Song, just now I..."
Song Ziyan waved his hand, interrupted Shi Lei, and said, "Okay, I know you have discussed this with my wife, and you said this deliberately to dispel my resentment towards you."
Shi Lei didn't have a good answer, so Song Ziyan said again: "But don't call me Secretary Song from now on. Call me uncle."
Shi Lei nodded and said, "Uncle Song."
"You are right. You are the benefactor of our family. Not to mention that you saved my life and your aunt's life. Even if you only took care of Miaomiao for half a year, we should not have such an attitude towards you. . However, I hope you can also understand the heart of a father. No father wants his daughter to follow a man so unclearly. "
Shi Lei whispered: "Uncle Song, I..."
Song Ziyan waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't explain. Your aunt just ignored you. In fact, your aunt and I knew about your relationship with Miaomiao before my father passed away. Don't think that you keep your work secret. If you do it well, we won't be able to tell. But at that time, I didn't think it was difficult for you to choose. I didn't expect that his father's departure would bring Miaomiao to the same level as Wei Xingyue and Sun Yiyi. On. Haha, maybe this is fate."
Shi Lei didn't know how to answer the question, so he had to say: "Uncle Song, don't say that. In fact, you and aunt are still in your prime. It's easier now that you are no longer officials. How have you and aunt been spending the past six months?"
Song Ziyan smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "How else can we live? In a hotel closed to the public, isolated from the world."
"I see that you and aunt have lost a lot of weight, right...?"
"That's not true. Except that I can't leave the hotel, I enjoy the treatment of high-ranking officials in everything else. But this kind of life is not comfortable. Your aunt and I are uneasy and don't know what we are going to face. In addition, we are bored all the time. I just walked around and lost weight naturally.”
Shi Lei nodded and said: "It's not bad. The old man promised me back then. Miaomiao made a fuss for a while when she first learned about your accident."
"It's hard to comfort, isn't it?"
"It's okay. She's just like you. It's normal for me to get angry."
Song Ziyan was silent, shook his head with a wry smile, took another sip of tea, and then said: "This girl was spoiled by her grandfather. However, she has matured a lot in the past six months, and she has learned to play tricks on me just now. "
Shi Lei was stunned and didn't understand what Song Ziyan meant. Song Ziyan said again: "Do you think she really wants to fight you? She's just doing it to show me. Yes, my daughter has grown up and is no longer the lawless person she used to be. It’s Mr. Shui’s fault. You can handle your own affairs.”
Shi Lei scratched his head, still a little embarrassed, and thinking of changing the subject, he said, "What do you and aunt say now?"
"The idea above was to let me take a temporary post at the National People's Congress, and then retire when I reach my age. However, after careful consideration, I felt that this might cause a lot of unnecessary trouble, so I resigned. What the old man promised you, the whole thing The process must be very difficult. Political struggles are always life-and-death. If I return to officialdom, even if it is a false position, some people will always be worried. Your aunt's property has been handed over, and some cash has been left as pension money. Your aunt and I have discussed that we want to leave this country and find a place to live in peace, or simply travel. After living for most of our lives, we have never lived for ourselves. "
Shi Lei was silent and asked: "Is it okay to go abroad?"
"We have already resigned from party and public offices, so they won't embarrass us in this regard."
Shi Lei thought about it. In the end, he could still leave a sum of money for Song Ziyan and his wife. He hoped that they would not show up in the country if they could not make trouble.
"But your aunt can't take any time off. She may have more difficulty adapting to the current life than me."
After hearing this, Shi Lei felt moved and said, "I recently invested in a company in the UK. If Aunt Wu doesn't mind it, I can join that company."
Song Ziyan glanced at him and said, "Will we and my husband work together for you?"
"I did not build that company by myself, and I only invested and did not interfere in the business. Li Qianhaocheng is currently running the company."
Song Ziyan frowned and said, "The one whose family is a diplomat?"
