Chapter 50: Running into an Acquaintance

  Chapter Fifty Encounter with an Acquaintance

  The car soon entered the business district, which is located next to the hot spring pool. The so-called business district actually only has a handful of shops, including a bank, a supermarket, a commercial agency and a restaurant.

  Chen Ying went to sign a transfer agreement, while Xiao Ye found a place to rest and accompanied her sister for a stroll in the morning, but still hasn't rested yet.

  "Xiao Lao Di?" Xiao Ye was sitting in the rest center taking a break when a voice suddenly came from behind him.

  Hearing the shout, Xiao Yu opened his eyes and turned his head to look back. Song Hu Shan was standing behind him with a puzzled expression.

  "Song Dage, how did you end up here?" Even Song Hu Shan Xiao Ye felt extremely surprised to run into him here.

  Upon hearing Xiao Yu speak, Song Hu Shan finally let out a sigh of relief, his face full of doubts completely dispelled; he had thought he had mistaken the person!

  Since Xiao Wei treated his son, the boy has been recovering gradually and can now communicate with people. The couple is naturally very happy. In recent years, due to their son's illness, they haven't taken him out to play properly. This time, when their son's condition improved, Song Huishan took his wife and son out for a few days. Unexpectedly, they ran into Xiao Wei here.

  "How did I end up here? I was about to ask you that! How did you end up here?" Song Hu Shan said with a smile after hearing Xiao Yu's words.

  "I came here to buy some things and my home is in the same city!" Xiao Ye also had a puzzled face. In any case, Xiao Ye did not expect to meet Song Hu Shan here.

  "Xiao Lao Di, Xiao Lao Di, the contract is ready, take a look!" Chen Ying shouted from afar as he walked out of the business agency and saw Xiao Ye chatting with someone.

  Xiao Yu and Song Hu Shan turned their heads to look when they heard Chen Ying's voice. Originally, Chen Ying saw Xiao Yu chatting with someone and thought he had run into an acquaintance from the same city. Unexpectedly, when this person turned his head around, it gave him a fright - this person was none other than the developer of this villa district, Song Hu Shan, the boss of the Tiger Mountain Group, which is said to have a powerful background that reaches all the way up to the top.

  "Hello, Boss Song!" Chen Ying awkwardly greeted Song Hu Shan and handed the agreement to Xiao Ye, saying: "Younger brother, take a look and sign it if there's no problem!"

  Xiao Yu took the agreement and looked at it. The agreement was very simple, just stating how much money would be exchanged for what item, with no room for disputes after the transaction. After reading through it without finding any major issues, Xiao Yu signed his name and said to Song Hu Shan: "Brother Song, wait for me, I have something to take care of, I'll be right back!"

  Chen Ying's eyes widened, who was this young man? How did he know Song Hu Shan? And judging from their relationship, they seemed to be on equal terms. Was this young man also...? Just as Chen Ying was lost in thought, he saw Xiao Ye walk into the bank and quickly followed him.

  In the bank, Xiao Yu transferred the money over, while Chen Ying gave the jade to Xiao Yu, and the transaction was considered complete.

  As soon as he came out of the bank, Chen Ying saw Song Hu Shan standing at the gate, waiting for Xiao Ye. He was even more certain about Xiao Ye's identity in his heart, so he said to the two of them: "Boss Song, Brother Xiao has bought a year's worth of goods from me today! Today I'm treating you, you two must join me!"

  "Old Chen! Today it's probably not going to work, if my family finds out that I bumped into Xiao Lao Di and didn't bring him home, I reckon I'll be kneeling on the washing board when I get back!" Song Hu Shan knew Chen Ying, having bought jade stones from him a few times before, so they were acquainted, but only acquaintances, after all, Chen Ying and Song Hu Shan's social status was too far apart.

  Chen Ying didn't feel embarrassed at all when he was rejected. If he wasn't rejected, that would be abnormal. Besides, Song Hu Shan even gave him an explanation. Chen Ying not only didn't lose face, but instead gained more face. He remembered that two years ago, when Song Hu Shan was buying jade in his store, the mayor of the ancient city wanted to invite him to dinner and was flatly rejected, yet the mayor didn't say a word.

  Chen Ying bowed his head and left with two people.

  "Go, Xiao Lao Di, go to my home, your sister is also at home!" Song Hu Shan said with a pat on Xiao Yun's shoulder.

  "Home? Song Dage, isn't your home in............?"

  As soon as Song Hu Shan heard Xiao Yu's words, he knew what he was going to say. He burst out laughing and interrupted Xiao Yu, saying: "Younger brother, this is my development project, so I naturally have a house here too! It's that one!" Song Hu Shan pointed to the largest villa in the entire hot spring resort area, which occupied over 10 mu of land and was a five-story standalone mansion.

  Xiao Ye and Song Hu Shan walked to the villa entrance, Song Hu Shan opened the door, and they went in. As soon as they entered the house, a young woman came out of the house, who seemed to be the nanny of the Song family. The young woman saw Song Hu Shan and bowed respectfully, saying: "The boss is back!"

  Song Hu Shan nodded slightly and walked straight to the sofa with Xiao Ye.

  After sitting down, the nanny brought a pot of tea from the kitchen and walked to the table in the living room to pour a cup of tea for Song Huishan, then retreated to one side.

  The nanny at Song Hu Shan's home is called Wang Xiao Qian, she has been working for the Song family for two years. In these two years, Wang Xiao Qian has seen all sorts of people come to the Song's home. At first, she would pour tea for guests, but they would repeatedly decline and treat her with great courtesy. Later on, she found out that among these people were CEOs of various companies, mayors, and municipal party secretaries. Gradually, Wang Xiao Qian's heart became more and more inflated, and since the Song family's villa was often empty, with only her living there, she began to think of herself as half the owner of the villa. Except for the master and mistress, no one else was worthy of her pouring water for them.

  And Xiao Ye was so young, and not even well-dressed, she had already taken Xiao Ye as someone trying to curry favor with the Song family. Such a person didn't have the qualifications to let her pour tea for herself, so after pouring tea for Song Hu Shan, she retreated to one side.

  Xiao Ye and they had just sat down when Zhou Ruoying heard a noise coming from the second floor.

  A few days ago, Zhou Ruoying was worried about her son's illness, with a gloomy face and a lack of vitality. Although she didn't look old, the whole person was dull and lifeless. But now that her son's condition has improved and is almost back to normal, Zhou Ruoying's worries have disappeared, and she is suddenly filled with youthful energy from head to toe.

  "Sister, it's been a few days since we last met, and you look several years younger! Now if you say you're eighteen or nineteen, people might actually believe you!" Xiaoyu said with slight surprise as he looked at Zhou Ruoying, who was in her thirties but radiated youthful energy from head to toe.

  "Ah...... Brother, it's really you! How did you end up here?" Zhou Ruo Ying exclaimed in surprise when she saw Xiao Ye.

  Xiao Yu smiled and explained it to Zhou Ruoying.

  "What a coincidence! Brother, we really have fate!" Zhou Ruo Ying exclaimed when she heard that Xiao Yu's home was in the same city and he happened to run into Song Hu Shan today while buying things.

  All three of them sat on the sofa, Zhou Ruoying saw that Xiao Yu's teacup was still covered with a tea utensil, and she hesitated for a moment. She glanced at the nanny Wang Xiaoqian, but didn't say anything. Instead, she picked up the teapot and said: "Little brother, your big brother brought his good tea this time, wait, I'll brew it for you!"

  Xiao Yu now also knows how precious that tea is, and he himself can't tell the good from the bad when it comes to tea. To him, tea is just for quenching thirst. Seeing Zhou Ruoyin brewing a good cup of tea, he hastily said: "Sister, no need, I don't understand tea, everything tastes the same!"

  "Wait there, I'll bring it over!" By the time she finished speaking, Zhou Ruoying had already walked far away.

  "Sister..."

  Xiao Ye wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Song Hu Shan, who said: "Let your sister go! This is her heart's desire!"

  The nanny Wang Xiaoqian saw that Xiao Yu was so familiar with the Song family, and she secretly wondered how she had no vision. In the Song family, Zhou Ruoying personally made tea for him, which she had never encountered since she started working here. She didn't expect this ordinary-looking young man to have such treatment in the Song family, and he even used the best tea leaves that Song Huashan liked the most. Moreover, she remembered that once the secretary of the municipal party committee of Yan City came to the Song family and wanted to drink Song Huashan's good tea but couldn't get it.

  After a while, Zhou Ruoying came out with tea and said to the nanny: "Xiao Qian, go cook! Make a few of your signature dishes!"

  "Alright, ma'am!" Wang Xiaoqian hastily walked into the kitchen.

  "What about Xiao Yu? Why haven't we seen him?" Xiao Ye asked casually.

  "Xiao Yu has gone to play at my sister's house in the ancient city!" Zhou Ruoying replied cleanly when Xiao Yu asked.

  Suddenly, Zhou Ruoying thought of something and looked at Xiao Ye with sparkling eyes. When she looked at Xiao Ye, her face still had a hint of surprise.
