Chapter 444 - Side Story 6: Staying Over (1/2)

The next time Han Yue Xiu went to the Song's residence again, her best friend, Li Qin Yao was facing a big scandal. At that time, something happened at the construction site and Li Qin Yao was accused of some crimes.

Once Han Yue Xiu heard about the accident on the site, she immediately tried to contact her friend. Even though her friend had ȧssured her that she was alright, Han Yue Xiu simply could not sit still.

She had been by Li Qin Yao's side after her friend was forced to leave QL Group and knew how much her friend was suffering.

Now that the same incident happened again, Han Yue Xiu wanted to stay by her side to give her support.

Fortunately, this time, Yao Yao had her husband and the family who would always stay by her side. Knowing that Zhang Yu Han was beside her friend, Han Yue Xiu was relieved.

Meanwhile, she continued to be in contact with Zhang Yu Han to know better about the situation. Knowing her best friend, Yao Yao would tell her that everything was alright so that she would not worry too much.

Once Han Yue Xiu heard that the matter was in the investigation and the report will come out soon, she went to discuss with Song Yi and the two of them took a flight to Y City.

When they arrived, the sky was starting to turn dark.

It was then that Han Yue Xiu remembered that she had forgotten to book a room to stay.

Just as she was browsing through some website, Song Yi appeared by her side and put his arms around her waist. He peeked at her phone and frowned.

”What are you doing?” Han Yue Xiu asked.

”My grandmother heard that we are coming to Y City and had asked me to bring you home for dinner,” Song Yi said. ”What do you think?”

Hearing that it was his grandmother who wanted him to bring her home, Han Yue Xiu agreed. Anyway, she can always leave after dinner and find a hotel room later.

Song Yi led her to the arrival hall and the two met with a driver that was sent by Song Yi's grandmother to pick them up.

”Grandmother,” Han Yue Xiu greeted.

Grandmother Song smiled. ”It's good that you're here. I heard about what was going on with your friend,” Grandmother Song said as she held on Han Yue Xiu's hand. ”If there's anything that we can do to help, just say it. The Song family is not without influence.”

”Thank you, grandmother.” Han Yue Xiu smiled. ”I really appreciate that. But we still aren't aware of the situation. Tomorrow, I will head over to their place and figure out what was going on.”

Grandmother Song nodded before she turned to call an auntie to prepare some dishes.

”Since you are here, just stay here at the residence for as long as you're staying in Y City,” Mother Song said. ”We have cleaned up a guest room for you.”

”That's right,” Grandmother Song agreed. ”Just stay here and save your money. There are a lot of empty rooms in this house. Later, you can accompany me for a chat.”

Han Yue Xiu turned to Song Yi to ask him to help her to decline, but the man only smiled and shrug, telling her to make her decision. Han Yue Xiu turned to the two ladies and was surprised to meet their expectant gaze. It seemed that if she declined their offer, the two women would be disappointed.

Her resolution started to waver under the women's gaze.

”Are you shy?” Grandmother Song asked. ”There's nothing to be shy about. Anyway, sooner or later, we are going to be a family, right?”
