Chapter 17 - Sue

Back in the car, Song Yunshu was still at a loss after being frightened by the dog.

She placed a hand on her stomach quietly and looked out of the car window.

The rapidly retreating scenery could not suppress the panic and uneasiness in her heart at all, as well as the pain in her lower abdomen.

Huo Cen sat next to her while the chauffeur was driving.

Along the way, the two of them remained silent. The atmosphere in the car was exceptionally heavy.

Even the chauffeur felt a lot of pressure.

The car drove to Huo Group first before sending her back.

Song Yunshu heaved a sigh of relief as she watched the man leave the car.

She almost thought that Huo Cen was really going to bring her back to the Huo family's old mansion to meet his relatives and family.

Although this was an inevitable event that would definitely happen someday in the future.

However, she had not prepared herself mentally yet. She really did not know how to interact with the elders of the Huo Family.

After all, just dealing with Huo Cen alone was already enough to make her feel overwhelmed.

As for the Huo family, there was no need to mention them.

As the car drove back, Song Yunshu received a call from Aunt Xiang.

She said that there seemed to be some progress regarding Yunsheng and wanted to talk to her in person.

Hearing this, Song Yunshu immediately instructed the chauffeur to turn around and head to the place she had agreed to meet Aunt Xiang.

... ...

When they arrived at the location, Song Yunshu told the driver to leave first and planned to take a taxi back later.

As soon as she entered the restaurant, Song Yunshu saw Aunt Xiang sitting facing the door and a young figure sitting opposite her.

Song Yunshu looked at the figure and felt somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was.

Just as Aunt Xiang saw her from afar and immediately stood up and waved at her to come over.

Song Yunshu lifted the small bag on her shoulder and strode forward.

"Song Song, look who this is."

She followed Aunt Xiang's voice and looked at the man.

The man stood up and looked at her with a smile. "Yunshu, long time no see."

"Senior?"

Song Yunshu didn't expect to meet Chen Shaocong here.

The two of them used to be students in the same high school, but Chen Shaocong was a year older than her. The two of them used to know each other in the club, so they could be considered old acquaintances.

Chen Shaocong was born into a medical family. His grandfather and parents were doctors.

After he graduated from high school, he was admitted to a prestigious medical college in the city. After graduation, he directly entered the city's hospital to work.

Song Yunshu didn't expect Aunt Xiang to contact her senior.

She was really surprised to see him.

"I'm very sorry. When Yunsheng passed away, I happened to be overseas and didn't have time to rush back. Later, I happened to run into Aunt Xiang in the hospital and learned about your situation. I specially asked you out today to talk about Yunsheng's matter. I hope you don't mind."

After all, he had investigated Song Yunsheng's matter without Song Yunshu's permission.

He was afraid that Yunshu would be upset.

However, Song Yunshu did not show any impatience expression on her face. On the contrary, she gave him a grateful smile.

"Don't mention it. Senior, I should be grateful to you for helping me investigate my brother's case. Why would I mind?"

Chen Shaocong smiled.

Looking at the slim and elegant girl in front of him, the expression between his eyebrows unconsciously softened a little.

"Song Song, Shaocong, let's sit down and talk slowly. It's not easy to talk while standing."

Aunt Xiang glanced at the two young people in front of her and greeted them with a smile.

Then, they each took their seats.

Chen Shaocong raised his hand and called for the waiter.

"The dishes can be served now."

"Yes, sir."

After saying that, he turned to look at Song Yunshu again. "It's noon. I ordered some dishes. Let's eat as we talk."

Song Yunshu was eager to know about Yunsheng's situation, she didn't have much of an appetite.

But since Chen Shaocong had suggested it, she smiled and nodded as she said, "Sorry for the trouble."

Outside the restaurant, Xiao Liu, the chauffeur, was preparing to go out for lunch when he coincidentally bumped into Song Yunshu, who was having a meal and chatting with someone.

Xiao Liu stared at the man sitting on the left side of his young mistress from afar. He frowned and felt that he had seen this man somewhere before.

To ensure that nothing went wrong, he cautiously took out his phone and snapped two photos of them eating. Then, he sent them to Huo Cen's phone.

With a note: Young Master, Madam didn't return to Qiuya Garden at noon. She's having lunch outside. Everything is fine. Please rest assured.

Chauffeur Liu's words were very skillful.

He did not deliberately show that he had taken photos to complain, nor did he distort the truth too much.

With a simple sentence, he managed to clear himself completely.

At the same time, Huo Cen, who was in his office, received a message from Xiao Liu.

The first thing he did was open the photo.

When he saw the man sitting next to Song Yunshu in the photo, his face darkened.

The next second, he turned his phone over on the table.

His handsome face was expressionless as he stared ahead.

All he could think of was the figure that looked like a little white rabbit, which made him angry and helpless.
