Chapter Fifty-One: The Cause

  "Did Xiaoyang acknowledge Xiaoye as his god-sister?" After Liu Xing finished telling the story, what caught Liu Yuan's interest was surprisingly the fact that Song Xiaoyang acknowledged Luo Ye as his god-sister. He didn't mention a word about the conflicts and arguments between the few of them.

  "Yes, I and Luo Ye are particularly compatible, so I acknowledged her as my adopted sister." Song Xiao Yang warmly hugged Luo Ye: "I've always wanted a little sister to pamper!"

  Liu Yuan hesitated for a moment, nodded politely to everyone, and looked at Liu Hang: "Hang, take good care of everyone, Yang Xing, Xiao Yang, and Xiao Ye, come with me to the main table!"

  "Brother, I will, don't worry!" Liu Xing hastily stood up to respond, and secretly glanced at Luo Ye, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

  The young people sitting around the table showed a slight change in expression. Yang Xing and Song Xiaoyang went to the main table, which everyone could accept, but Luo Ye also went together, making them feel uncomfortable. It was just that Liu Yuan's prestige was there, and no one dared to say anything to his face.

  It's Wang Xiaoping who is quite happy. In her opinion, after Luo Ye and Song Xiaoyang leave, Liu Hang will definitely discover the beauty of this flower that understands her!

  Luo Ye's lips curled up in a sweet smile as she was pulled by Song Xiao Yang, but her eyes were devoid of any warmth. It wasn't that she had taken a liking to anyone, nor was it because her father's position had changed, allowing her to sit at the main table. Rather, it was because Song Xiao Yang's grandfather was Song Liqing, the current deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and acting governor. The Liu family indeed thought of utilizing every little thing to their advantage.

  Luoye walked up to Wenxin and gently squeezed her hand, signaling her to calm down. Apparently, Wenxin thought she was being taken to see the parents as one of the troublemakers, and the worry in her eyes was evident.

  Nian Cui discovered the subtle movements of the mother and daughter, smiled and gently patted Wen Xin: "It must be a good thing, just look at Yuan Yuan's face and you'll know, don't worry blindly."

  When she saw Xiaohua's face, it was difficult to look at. She relied on the distant and forced relationship between the two families to arrange for her son to follow Song Xiaoyang closely, but now it seems that her son has fallen behind.

  What good thing? What could be a good thing? Seeing the female guests at the table comforting Wen Xin, their tone was full of flattery, which made Xiao Hua's heart even more sour.

  Today's banquet, Nie Cui was extremely attentive to Wen Xin, and others naturally followed the lead of Secretary's wife. Originally, she had a face supported by her maternal uncle, but it seemed that all were given to Wen Xin by Nie Cui.

  According to her feelings, Nie Cui should have taken a liking to Luo Ye as a daughter-in-law, which made her even more uncomfortable in her heart. Just the other day, she had just been rejected by him, and if the Liu and Luo families were to be married, her position in the big house would really be lowered!

  The warm and tense gaze towards the main table, after several children wished the old man a happy birthday, the old man's smile that showed his teeth but not his eyes finally made her put down her guard a little.

  Wen Xinyi's expression softened, and Nie Cui smiled: "I told you it was nothing! Look at my old man, he's so happy. You know the rules of our family, generally girls are not allowed to sit at the men's table. He let Xiao Ye and Xiao Yang sit on either side of him, which means these two kids have won his heart!"

  If Ruo Luo Ye heard Nie Cui's explanation, she would definitely laugh and say that what was said to have coincided with the old master's mind was actually in line with Liu Zheng Xing's official career.

  At this moment, the guests at the main table had all figured out that Song Xiaoyang had acknowledged Luo Ye as his god-sister. Song Xiaoyang even called his family in front of everyone and told them about acknowledging Luo Ye as his god-sister in detail. Finally, he handed the phone to Old Man Liu, after which Old Man Liu's eyes, which were already narrowed to a slit, narrowed down to half a slit.

  Liu Zhengxing's laughter suddenly became more pleasant, not because he was happy for Luo Ye, but because he felt that Song Provincial Governor had given him enough face. Previously, he wasn't clear about Song Xiaoyang's identity, and it wasn't until he chatted with the new mayor Yang Songping earlier that he realized she was actually the granddaughter of the provincial governor during the Song dynasty, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful for having treated her coldly.

  Yang Songping's family background and qualifications are not something he can compare with, but he also got internal information that the other party will come over for at most two years, let him cooperate well, the meaning of this sentence he naturally understands.

  He is clear about his own weight, and the big tree of the Yang family still needs time to lean on. As for the Song family, he has some qualifications, and he also understands the deep meaning of Yang Songping telling him the identity of Song Xiaoyang. Just now, seeing that the young people at the table were a bit restless, he borrowed an excuse to let Liu Yuan go and bring Song Xiaoyang and Yang Xing over. As for Luo Ye, it was purely Liu Yuan's temporary decision, which is exactly what he likes about his eldest son - many things don't need to be explained, and he can definitely do things that will satisfy you.

  However, Liu Zhenghang found it strange that Song Xiaoyang would acknowledge Luo Ye as his sister. Given Song Xiaoyang's family background, he shouldn't be so casual about such things, even if they hit it off immediately, after all, it was their first meeting.

  According to his observation, plus the implicit meaning of Mayor Yang's words, Song Xiaoyang is pursuing Yang Xing, and Yang Xing seems to be pushing three and blocking four. Could it be... Liu Zhenghang's gaze at Song Xiaoyang was momentarily filled with appreciation.

  Luo Zhenggang was also very puzzled about this matter at this time, especially when Song Xiaoyang took off the bangle from his hand and forced his daughter to accept it, his eyebrows furrowed slightly. Everything must have a reason, right?

  The eyes of the guests at the main table looking at Luo Zhengzhen were all slightly different, although it's not necessarily that this kind of relationship between children can really help Luo Zhengzhen in any way, but later on they will have to take care of some things.

  Can't help but feel a little jealous of Luo Zheng's good luck, the promotion back then was an opportunity, now coming to attend a birthday party, can also have such a good thing come knocking on the door, and looking at Luo Ye's attitude, this matter is still being rushed by Song Xiaoyang, it's really unfair.

  Just now, when Song Xiaoyang was on the phone, Song Daiming obviously spoiled this granddaughter very much and agreed to her in one mouth. This also marks that Luo Ye is not only recognized by Song Xiaoyang, but also has a good relationship with him. Does the Luo family have been burning high incense all along?

  ……

  "Yèr, you're usually not an impulsive child, wasn't accepting this bangle a bit too sudden?" Wēn xīn finally had the chance to express her concerns after returning home.

  "Mom, don't worry, if I didn't accept, some people would be even more worried!" Luo Ye smiled and looked at Luo Zhengang who was frowning: "Dad, the problem is not complicated. Song Xiaoyang likes Yang Xing, she should be worried that I'm close to Yang Xing, so she thought of using this method to tie me down. I have no interest in Yang Xing at all, why not just fulfill Song Xiaoyang's wish, that's all!"

  The warm face suddenly changed: "Ye Er, you and that Song Xiaoyang went to the bathroom for a long time halfway through. She won't be threatening you, will she?"

  Lu Ye laughed and hugged Wen Xin: "Mom, you put her in the same category as Wang Xiao Ping, she wouldn't do something so stupid. She told me a lot of intimate words, then asked me to help take care of Yang Xing, if I find any girls chasing after Yang Xing, let me report back to her, isn't that clearly telling me what's going on?"

  "This girl looks straightforward, but she's actually very cunning!" Wen Xi's face was full of grievances: "She's doing this, and it's making others misunderstand that our family is having another stroke of good luck! Even Xiao Hua almost drowned me in a vinegar jar!"

  "Pfft!" Luo Ye burst out laughing, teased by her mom. Her slightly gloomy mood cleared up a bit. Some things, though not taken to heart, still left an uncomfortable feeling.
