Chapter 112: One hundred and twelve, nothing interesting to see Chapter 112: One hundred and twelve, nothing interesting to see Seeing Song Yan Ning staring at Fang Jingxing, Qin Yushen felt inexplicably uncomfortable inside. He leaned in close to Song Yan Ning’s ear and gently whispered, “He’s just a brat, nothing worth looking at.”
Feeling the warmth by her ear, Song Yan Ning’s heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat. She turned her head and gave Qin Yushen a white-eyed glance. This demon was actually flirting with her in public. Thankfully, she was just a child now, so no one would think too much of it.
Qin Yushen smiled nonchalantly. When he saw the roast duck being served, he picked up a piece of the thin pancake, used chopsticks to dip two pieces of duck leg meat into the sauce, placed them on the pancake, added some side dishes, wrapped it up, and handed it to Song Yan Ning, “Try this and see if it suits your taste.”
Song Yan Ning did not reach out her hand. She had no intention of paying attention to Qin Yushen for now.
Seeing that Song Yan Ning wasn’t accepting, Qin Yushen brought the pancake wrapped with roast duck to her mouth, “Be good! Take a bite. It’s bad for kids to be picky eaters; it’ll stunt their growth.”
“Pfft!” Qu Lingfeng couldn’t hold back his laughter anymore, “Sorry, I really couldn’t help it. Let me laugh for a while, hahaha…” The current Yushen was just like a dad coaxing his daughter to eat. If it weren’t for Yushen’s multitude of unusual behaviors today, he would have trouble believing the person in front of him was Yushen.
Ye Qi was already snickering, and seeing Qu Lingfeng laugh, he also burst into hearty laughter. Today’s Yushen had really been an eye-opener for him, completely overturning the image he had maintained in Ye Qi’s mind.
Song Yan Ning rolled her eyes in speechlessness, “I can do it myself.” She really wanted to reach out and check his forehead to see if he was sick.
Fang Jingxing watched Qin Yushen and Song Yan Ning with a light smile. He thought Yushen being this way was quite nice; at least now, he was more in line with his age than usual. Typically, he was too stable and composed, with none of the traits one would expect from someone his age.
Qu Lingfeng stopped his laughter, looking at Qin Yushen and Song Yan Ning, his lips occasionally curling into a smile. He was grateful that he went to the amusement park today; otherwise, he would have missed this entertaining scene.
“What is your relationship with her, Yushen?” Ye Qi asked curiously. He knew that the Qin and Song families had a good relationship, but Qin Yushen had never treated Song Yanxue, who was also from the Song Family, like this.
Song Yan Ning looked toward Qin Yushen. If you dare to spout nonsense, I won’t pay attention to you anymore. Even though they were childhood betrothed, so what? She and he were destined not to be together in the future. She would return to the Demon World eventually; she had many things to do. She had to avenge her parents and revive the Nine-tailed Fox Clan.
Qin Yushen’s lips curved slightly as he looked at everyone, “I treat her like a sister.”
The others nodded in understanding upon hearing this. Indeed, other than a sister, they couldn’t think of any other relationship between them.
Song Yanxue had been uneasy all day and dared not leave her room. She feared that she might accidentally spill the beans and let the family know she had been expelled from the Emperor Realm. What worried her most now was whether Cheng Jun would reveal the matter. Although her family would find out sooner or later, it was best to delay it as long as possible.
At that moment, the phone in the room rang, startling Song Yanxue.
Relieved that it was just the phone ringing, she calmed down.
Not long after, someone knocked on her door.
“Who is it?” Song Yanxue asked nervously.
“It’s me. Mom and Dad are calling you down for dinner,” Song Yanli’s voice came from outside the door.
Song Yanxue walked over and opened the door, “Tell Mom and Dad that I’m not feeling well and won’t eat today.”
Song Yanli looked Song Yanxue up and down, “What’s wrong with you?” She didn’t seem to look unwell, her complexion was even ruddy. Moreover, if she claimed to be sick like this, their parents would surely ask.
“My stomach hurts,” Song Yanxue said, pointing to her abdomen.
Song Yanli nodded, then turned and headed downstairs.
Song Yanxue closed the bedroom door and leaned against it, slowly sliding down. How could she keep this secret?
Song Yanli arrived downstairs, sat down at the dining table, and said, “Xiao Xue said she has a stomachache and won’t be eating today.”
“How on earth has her stomach started hurting? I’ll go check on her.” Yang Xin’er put down her chopsticks and stood up to head upstairs.
“Knock knock knock!” Hearing the room door being knocked again, Song Yanxue slowly lifted her head. “Who is it?”
“It’s me, Xiao Xue, open the door,” Yang Xin’er said.
Song Yanxue got up from the floor, turned around, and opened the door. “Mom!”
“Xiao Li said you’re having stomach pains. Do you want the doctor to come over and take a look?” Yang Xin’er looked at Song Yanxue, her eyes filled with worry. Xiao Xue had always been very lively in her eyes, and this was the first time she had seen her looking so listless.
“No need, I just need to sleep a little, and I’ll be fine,” Song Yanxue shook her head.
Yang Xin’er reached out and felt Song Yanxue’s forehead, relieved to find the temperature normal. “Then get some sleep for now. If you can’t bear it, tell Mom, and I’ll have the doctor come over.”
“Mhm.” Song Yanxue nodded, her mouth moved as if she wanted to confess everything to her mom, but she refrained in time.
Yang Xin’er tenderly ruffled Song Yanxue’s hair. “Go rest, and call Mom if you feel worse.”
“Mhm.” Song Yanxue nodded, turned around, and walked over to her soft princess bed.
Seeing Song Yanxue in bed and covered with a blanket, Yang Xin’er smiled. “Mom’s going downstairs now.”
“Okay.” Song Yanxue responded and closed her eyes.
Once she heard the door close, she opened her eyes again and stared blankly at the ceiling. What should she do? It was all that doctor’s fault—if it hadn’t been for her, Brother Yushen wouldn’t be ignoring her. But now, she couldn’t even get into the Emperor Realm to seek revenge on the doctor.
After the Song Family had finished their meal, Ye Qi suggested going to KTV to sing. The sun was too intense outside, and it was unsuitable for outdoor activities.
Seeing that everyone agreed, neither Song Yan Ning nor Qin Yushen raised any objections.
After some discussion, the group arrived at a nearby KTV, which also happened to be owned by the Fang Family.
“Young friends, we have a policy here that you must be at least 18 years old to enter,” the server stopped Song Yan Ning and her companions. Their KTV was not an ordinary one, and people without a certain status could not enter. But explaining status to these kids would be pointless; they wouldn’t understand.
Fang Jingxing reached out, intending to pull out his membership card. His card, even within the Fang Family, was one of just a few, owned only by significant members of the Fang Family. With this membership card, one could enjoy the highest courtesy at any Fang Family establishment.
“Aiyo! Kids these days really are something else, not realizing what kind of place this is, whether they’re even allowed in,” a sarcastic voice came from behind Song Yan Ning and the others.
