Chapter 1179 The Lights Went Out

Su Xiyin was stunned for a moment. She thought to herself, this lady is really strong. The Hawaiian Fruit is very sturdy, even a man would not be able to open it easily.

Ling Sheng was stunned as well, she looked at her as though she was looking at a monster. What kind of strange strength was this? She was clearly extremely strong, but she still acted like a weakling. She really could not get used to

it.

Si Chengluo also looked at Song Yiyan with disdain. Was she pretending to be obedient in front of her elders? She was clearly a wolf in sheep’s clothing, giving him goosebumps. Ji Xing was also impressive. He could actually tolerate this strange woman and did not lose his temper no matter how she tortured him. Impressive!

“Where’s Second Uncle?” Song Yiyan looked at Ling Sheng and asked, her big eyes flashing innocently. “Sheng Sheng, where’s Second Uncle?”

“In the study. He will be out in a while.” Ling Sheng glanced in the direction of the study. She was very impressed by her natural friendliness.

After her second uncle arrived, her father called to inform the other uncles. They were all talking in the study room. Her mother was also there, there were only a few people left in the living room.

Nangong Lun looked at Song Yiyan and didn’t speak for a long time. Finally, he couldn’t take it anymore and asked, “Yanyan, did you run away from the marriage because of him?”

This child was not her own. Looking at her, she must have been deceived by this man. This child had always been innocent.

“No.” Song Yiyan was no longer spineless. She sat up straight and pulled the plate of nuts in front of her. She began to pinch the Hawaiian Fruit one by one. She sniffled and felt wronged. “Grandfather Nangong, my grandfather forced me to marry someone I don’t like. That’s why I ran away. I don’t like Dongfang Fan.”

Dongfang Fan, that idiot, was a scumbag. If he dared to lay a finger on her, she would beat him up until he cried for his parents.

As an elder, Nangong Lun still had to ask. He could not watch her suffer. “Then, Mr. Ji, what does your family do?” Ling Sheng coughed softly and stole a glance. What was Ji Xing working as? Was he delivering food? He was even wearing the clothes of a delivery man.

However, she had to admit that as long as a person was good-looking, they would look good even if they were wearing a snakeskin bag.

“Oh, him? He’s delivering food now!” Song Yiyan introduced generously. “But he has potential. I’m sure he’ll shine in the future.”

Nangong Lun frowned. He felt that Song Yiyan was lying to him, but he couldn’t say it out loud.

The boy in front of him did not seem like a delivery boy. He was calm and composed even when facing him and his brother. No matter what he said or did, he had a sense of propriety and great self-restraint. This kind of aristocratic temperament and self-cultivation was not something that could be tempered in a day or two. This meant that the environment he was born in was like this.

He basically knew all the young and talented people. There were quite a few young and accomplished people like him, but none of them could compare to him.

For such a person, even if he did not have any background and only roamed around by himself, no matter which industry he developed in, he would definitely be successful. Why would he hide his identity to deceive their innocent girl?

Was it because he truly loved her? Or did he have other intentions?
