Chapter 80: The Joys of a Mortgage
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The medical examiner determined that He Sui had been raped by many people before her death. Her body had multiple stab wounds. The suspect was a vagrant beggar gang.
The Song Family was not mentioned in the news. Song Nuanyi had already returned to the Capital. When she saw the news sent by Assistant Chen, she did not have much of a reaction. She only glanced at it briefly before turning it off.
Ever since she came to the Capital, Elder Song’s health had improved significantly. Song Nuanyi tried to visit him, but he still saw her as her mother and kept calling her Fu Sheng.
She had now accepted that her father had become like this. Instead of letting him suffer the pain of losing his lover in this state of mind, she might as well let him soothe his heart instead.
Later on, she would bring all kinds of delicious food and listen to Mother Wang introduce her mother’s old habits and style of speech to herself. Then, she would imitate her mother’s appearance and persuade her father to eat well, but she would not do anything beyond that.
Smith was going to return to his home country soon. The project was going very smoothly. He was going to take away Qiao Kang and the entire medical research team.
Qiao Kang could not bear to leave Song Nuanyi alone in the Capital. He actually refused Smith’s invitation.
When Song Nuanyi heard Smith’s complaints, she quickly called Qiao Kang. As soon as the call was connected, she questioned, “Qiao Kang, do you know what a great opportunity this collaboration with Mr. Smith is? Why aren’t you going?”
Qiao Kang quickly put the phone away from his ear. He raised his hand to rub his ear and took a deep breath. “I know this is a great opportunity, but I don’t want to go abroad.”
Song Nuanyi knew that he must be worried about her, which was why he gave up on this opportunity, she advised, “Don’t be willful. Don’t worry. I can definitely take care of myself in the Capital. Besides, if you extend the project overseas, won’t I be able to find you if I want to develop a multinational business in the future?”
She deliberately said that there were many benefits to going abroad, but the other side said, “Who says I can’t bear to part with you? I can’t bear to part with that person in Alberto City.”
“…” Song Nuanyi suddenly remembered that there was a female boss in a restaurant in Alberto City, and Qiao Kang had been paying attention to her for a long time.
She felt that she was being a little self-sentimental, and her words were a little sarcastic and playful. “Oh, I didn’t expect Dr. Qiao to be such an infatuated child.”
Although she heard that Qiao Kang did not stay for her, she was not jealous. Instead, she felt that this was a good thing, which meant that Qiao Kang would never give up his life to repay her kindness.
In the past, Qiao Kang only had eyes for the Song Family and wished that he could give himself to the Song Family for the rest of his life. But now, seeing that he had someone he liked and someone he cared about other than the Song Family, she was truly happy for Qiao Kang.
Song Nuanyi said, “What’s so hard about that? I’ll pay to send that female boss of yours overseas and open a restaurant for her overseas. Wouldn’t that be perfect?”
Qiao Kang burst out laughing. He teased with a laugh, “You really think you’re a bossy female CEO? You even gave her a restaurant. Why don’t you give her an entire company?”
“That’s fine too!” Song Nuanyi answered seriously, “If she really marries you, she’ll be my sister-in-law! As long as she treats you well, not to mention giving her a company, she’ll even get shares of the Song Family.”
This time, it was Qiao Kang’s turn to be silent. He did not expect Song Nuanyi to do so much for him. In fact, she was not doing it for the female boss.
As he had been busy in the Capital for a long time, he did not have time to chat with the girl. The female boss already had a boyfriend, so they had not contacted each other for a long time.
In the end, Qiao Kang could not rest assured about this strong little sister. If anything happened to Song Nuanyi, even if she had a small headache or a cold, he could help her.
However, after hearing Song Nuanyi’s words, he did not know what to say. He suddenly felt that no matter how hard he tried, the Song Family would still take care of him in the end.
A sense of disappointment and frustration welled up in his heart. He closed his eyes deeply and said to Song Nuanyi, “Alright, since you’ve Said So, of course, I’ll bring your future sister-in-law out to help you develop your connections.”
Even though that was the case, he still emphasized in the end that she must not buy her any restaurants or villas. She had to first pay off her mortgage in the Capital!
Song Nuanyi snorted mischievously and retorted, “What’s the rush? Things like mortgages are only fun if you’re paying it every month!”
Assistant Chen, who was standing at the side waiting for Song Nuanyi to sign the document, twitched his lips when he heard that.
He did not know if Miss Song was having fun, or if she was joking.
