Chapter 240 The Breakfast Shop Owner and the Man He Picked Up (4)
The Breakfast Shop Owner and the Man He Picked Up (XIV)
S City, villa banquet hall.
"Hey, you were also brought here by the old men at home?"
"Yeah, the old man insisted on saying something about giving the Song family face. I didn't want to come, but as soon as I said that, he said if you don't want to come to this family, then don't come. Listen to what he said, how dare I not come?"
"Me too. My two family members insisted that I should start paying attention to these things when I get old enough. If I don't come, they said I shouldn't come anymore."
"The Song family is so prestigious? My family is similar, but what's the situation today? Who of you will take the initiative?"
"It seems to be Young Master Song's 18th birthday ceremony? To be honest, Young Master Song is quite low-key. I've never seen the Song family let him out to meet people before."
The successful people in the banquet hall were talking to each other, and their young children also quickly and skillfully gathered together and started communicating.
"Mr. Song? I heard my mother talk about this a long time ago. She said that what the Song couple did was a bit immoral, and as a result, they suffered retribution and their child was born with a congenital defect. It seems that they have to rest and recuperate in this life, otherwise it is hard to say whether they can grow up."
"Ah? What did the Song family do before?"
"I'm not sure. I wanted to ask but my mom didn't say anything mysterious."
"No wonder Young Master Song never leaves his house. I was wondering why I've never heard of such a person before."
"Now he still has to come out and meet people, but what's wrong with him?"
"It seems to be a heart problem, right? I remember my mother said something, saying that when she was born, she was diagnosed with heart failure. She can survive, but her heart cannot compare with a normal person's. I guess it will be like that for the rest of her life."
"Then the Song family still treats him as a treasure? Why is their coming-of-age ceremony so grand?"
"You don't understand this, do you? Otherwise, how can they say that their family has suffered retribution? It is said that Mr. Song was retaliated by his enemies fifteen years ago. He was injured there at the time. He wants to build a small account but he is powerless."
"Damn it, you know all this?"
"You must be joking. Don't you know who my mother is? She's the number one detective in S City."
"Your mother is really amazing, but has the Song family never thought about giving their son a heart replacement? They've made a lot of money, so it shouldn't be a big deal."
"Who knows? It's not ruled out that they wanted to smash it but didn't have a suitable heart. Hearts are not as easy to find as other organs. You can't really keep someone at home and wait for his heart to break down so you can replace it."
The man in the corner loosened his fingers and the champagne glass in his hand fell straight to the ground.
Fortunately, in order to show off their financial resources and to express the solemnity of the banquet, the Song couple laid thick carpets everywhere.
The champagne spilled onto the precious carpet, and the champagne glass with a luxurious gold rim rolled casually to a corner, but Song Huai'en seemed not to see it.
His vision went dark and his heart almost stopped beating.
So that’s it, that’s it!
Now everything made sense, he understood it all now!
No wonder his parents, no, the Song couple suddenly recognized him as their new husband.
It's not that he didn't notice the Song couple's disdain and indifference towards him, but Song Huai'en initially thought it was because he had been missing for too many years and their relationship could not be restored all at once.
But now think about it, if the Song couple really cared about him, they would not ignore him so much no matter how many years he had been missing.
He was made to live in the servants' room. When he had a conflict with Song Huaian, he protected Song Huaian without a second thought. He was admitted to a good university, but she just said "oh" and that was it.
Although his living conditions in the Song family were better now than before, he received absolutely no love from anyone.
It turns out that this is the reason.
Song Huai'en hid in the shadows with a distorted expression on his face.
And the same thing about this party. The woman clearly told him in the morning that this party was held for him, but what happened?
The guests didn't even know that the Song family had a young master named Song! No matter what, Song Huaian was just the second young master of the Song family. Why could Song Huaian step on their heads?
All these should have belonged to him. Song Huaian shouldn't even have been born if he hadn't been lost!
But it was still not too late, a trace of resentment appeared on Song Huai'en's face.
Heart disease? You were born with a bad heart, right?
The Song family wanted to take him to prolong Song Huaian's life, but he didn't agree!
As long as he finds a way, Song Huaian, an unhealthy son, and he, a healthy son, believe that the two people will make the right choice.
If it really doesn't work, it would be normal for a person with heart disease to die directly from an accident, isn't it?
With these resentful thoughts hidden in his heart, Song Huai'en had a very natural smile on his face when Song suddenly "realized" and came to "apologize" at the end of the banquet.
"I'm sorry, Huai En. Your brother is in poor health. The fortune teller said that he could only be hidden and raised secretly. He could not be told to the outside world until he turned 18. We wanted to make it up to him tonight and forgot about you for a while. But you also cut the cake with us. Everyone must know that you are our lost eldest son."
Song had an expression that said 'Mom is sorry but I didn't mean it', and her tone said she was sorry but there was no intention of apologizing at all.
Song Huai'en also had a natural smile on his face and spoke in a friendly tone.
"Why are you apologizing to me, mom? I know how difficult it was for my brother in the past. Don't worry, mom, I know all this. My brother is in poor health, so I just need to be considerate of him. You don't have to worry about me, I understand."
Song was a little stunned.
Why did this kid react like this?
He had a conflict with Huai'an last time, but now he suddenly becomes so sensible?
She was not sure and looked at him seriously several times, then was surprised to find that Song Huai'en's expression was actually very sincere.
Is he really completely sincere?
Song was surprised, and then a trace of disgust flashed through her heart.
He is indeed a useless person who was raised by the petty people and knows nothing. He couldn't even understand such a small trick and yet he foolishly believed it?
But it’s a good thing this way, let him rest his heart for a while.
Huai'an's current health condition is not good enough for surgery, so he might as well just keep a pet dog at home. It doesn't cost much anyway.
She thought about it in her mind and smiled lovingly, "Okay, okay, you're my brother so I'm glad you understand this. By the way, aren't you going to start school soon? How about this, mom will transfer some money to you and you can spend it, but you should still go home for meals. The food in school is all poor food and is not clean. Home-cooked meals are the best."
We can’t let this kid eat too poorly at school and affect the quality of his heart!
