Chapter 1193: Chapter 1193: I Heard Someone Likes Me
Lu Jianan sat numbly where he was, her face pale and her whole body trembling.
Xu Junfengâs heart softened as he watched. It seemed she truly did harbor feelings for Song Jinyan, which was just too tragic, to have fallen for someone like him.
âAlso, my visit today is to tell you to stay away from the production factory for the time being. Youâre getting a long vacation.â
When it came to granting a long vacation, this was another negative impact of the rumorsâonce the word spread and implicated Song Jinyan, those at the production factory became anxious, worrying about provoking Song Jinyan.
So, they had no choice but to keep Lu Jianan away.
This was also because the Lv Family had quite some clout; had it been someone without connections, they wouldâve been fired long ago.
âI know.â
In the end, Lu Jianan didnât even realize when Xu Junfeng had left.
***
âYou say someone has feelings for me? It has spread all over town?â
Song Jinyan stood under a pine tree in the garden, the cigarette between his fingers flickering in the wind. Snow from the burdened branches of the pine fell in flurries, dusting Song Jinyanâs broad shoulders and thick eyelashes.
He didnât mind, drawing on the cigarette butt and exhaling a ring of smoke. With a smile, he asked, âIs liking me such a terrifying matter? To be gossiped about as if hiding a treasure map?â
Songshanâs mouth twitched with irony; it wasnât terrifying, just very unusual.
âIndeed unusual that someone would have feelings for me.â Song Jinyan appeared amused by some funny thought, his thin lips curving as he took a drag of his cigarette, an action that exuded carefree rebellion, striking a curious contrast to his pristine uniform and austere demeanor, and lending him a deadly allure.
âDidnât expect I, Song Jinyan, also had appeal with women, truly unusual. But isnât that girl Xiaoya a bit too young for me? I really donât want to be the old cow eating tender grass.â
Songshan was speechless, hearing his boss as if contemplating an affair with the young girl.
Songshan really wanted to ask, âIsnât Xu Xiyi your true love?â
Unfortunately, he didnât have the courage and instead offered an insincere comment, âNot that young, only six years younger, just perfect.â
Song Jinyan laughed and cursed in response.
âBy the way, who spread these rumors?â Song Jinyan didnât believe they sprang up without help, and someone dared to gossip about him, âDonât tell me it was my dear cousin.â
He emphasized âdear cousinâ with a hint of sarcasm, his gaze narrowing dangerously.
Song Jinyan was rapidly losing patience with his second uncleâs family. Whether it was his second uncleâs despicable behavior or Song Zishan exploiting the Song familyâs reputation to bully others and act recklessly, it all frustrated him significantly.
The prestige of the Song family was hard-won in bloodshed, not to be squandered by that father-daughter pair.
âSeems you guessed right, indeed, oneâs own family knows them best.â
âThat girl Xiaoya who has feelings for me, sheâs friends with my cousin, right?â
At his words, Songshan struggled to hold back laughter, finding his boss unexpectedly amusing. The young lady had cherished feelings for him for so many years, and during his visits to the Song family, he could detect the adoration in Lu Jiananâs eyes.
Yet, not only had the boss failed to notice, but he didnât even know her name or what she looked like.
Now that the rumors had spread and he knew the young lady was smitten with him, he suddenly remembered her.
Ha! Men.
Songshan didnât know how to ridicule his boss anymore. No wonder he had remained single for thirty years without a wifeâno one dared to harbor affection for him.
âThey used to be good friends, but after this incident, they wonât be anymore.â
