The matriarch has returned; that spendthrift son is truly daring!

Chapter 225 Xie Family

Song Shuyue wore a blue fitted long dress tonight, with the blue hem spreading out like ripples on water. Her deep blue shimmering earrings were elegant and bright, and her hair was gently braided and styled. Her light makeup highlighted her stunning beauty.

Seeing his beautiful younger sister, Song Yanbai was very pleased. He took a box from his assistant, opened it, and found a sky-blue jewelry necklace inside. He then slowly walked forward.

"I took this picture abroad, and I think it suits you very well."

Song Yanbai put it on her personally, and Song Shuyue, in a rare good mood, joked about it.

"You're not planning to give it to another girl, are you?"

Song Yanbai paused, then smiled and explained, "No, I just bought it and haven't planned to give it away yet."

Song Shuyue gently stroked the necklace around her neck. She liked it very much; it was beautiful!

"Let's go."

As the car drove away from the city center, Song Shuyue asked curiously, "Whose house are we going to tonight? It'll have to be even more remote."

Song Yanbai: "It's the Xie family."

Upon hearing this, Song Shuyue was taken aback, turned to look at him, and felt a surge of excitement in her heart.

"The Xie family?"

"Is it the Xie family, a family little known in Beijing, not among the top ten families, yet one that no one dares to offend?"

The Xie family is a truly powerful clan, with many members involved in politics.

Song Yanbai nodded. Since getting to know the Xie family, he had come to understand why everyone wanted to climb the social ladder and reach the top of power. He considered himself quite capable, but he was still a bit inferior to the Xie family.

But power and money always have their advantages.

Song Shuyue was quite surprised; the Xie family was a family that piqued her curiosity.

However, the fact that Song Yanbai was able to befriend the Xie family shows that his strength has reached a new level.

"Yueyue, slow down."

"Ah."

As Song Shuyue got out of the car, she was greeted by an old house. Although her house looked very retro, it had many modern elements compared to real old houses and courtyards. But the one in front of her was like a dream of going back hundreds of years.

Nestled against the mountains and beside the water, it exudes classical luxury—an indescribable feeling.

"Is this Mr. Song? Please come in, my husband has been waiting for a long time."

Song Yanbai nodded slightly. "Please lead the way."

The butler couldn't help but glance at the young maid beside him a few more times. She had such a fine temperament. He hadn't seen such a noble and elegant woman in many years. She was a wealthy and refined lady.

I've heard that Mr. Song is already on the global rich list at a young age and is the CEO of a multinational corporation.

He is not yet married, and it is unknown whether the person next to him is a family member or a female companion.

As the two entered, a maid lifted the beaded curtain and said, "Please come in."

The Xie family rarely hosts banquets, but when they do, it's usually just a gathering of friends to get to know each other, exchange ideas, and discuss national trends, collaborations, and other related matters.

There were six seats in total, and two people were seated there. The man in the lead was wearing a Zhongshan suit, was over thirty years old, wore glasses, and was gentle and refined with a warm smile.

Song Shuyue recognized the man as the mayor at a glance!

I never imagined he was a member of the Xie family.

Given that many members of the Xie family are involved in politics, it's not surprising.

"Mr. Song, you've finally arrived. Please have a seat. And this gentleman is..."

Song Yanbai introduced her as "my younger sister."

Xie Jingfeng smiled faintly and took the initiative to greet her, "Hello, my name is Xie Jingfeng."

"Song Shuyue".

After exchanging greetings and sitting down, two more people arrived late. They drank tea and exchanged pleasantries. Song Shuyue picked up her teacup, took a sip, and a subtle smile appeared on her lips.

Xie Jingfeng, with his keen observation, began the conversation, "Miss Song, do you also enjoy tea?"

Song Shuyue: "Yes, I like tea. This tea has a rich aroma, a mellow taste, and a bright red color. It should be Qimen black tea, and the person who brewed the tea is very skilled."

Xie Jingfeng: "Indeed, Miss Song, I also quite like this Qishan black tea. I didn't expect Miss Song to be so knowledgeable at such a young age. It's quite surprising."

"you flatter me."

Song Shuyue found some parts of the conversation interesting, while others didn't, revealing her boredom.

Xie Jingfeng suggested that his younger sister accompany him to the park.

Song Yanbai thought so too; these were all grown men, and she really must be bored.

A moment later, a young woman in a cheongsam ran down from upstairs. Her eyes were bright and her smile was radiant. She immediately noticed Song Yanbai, the most outstanding-looking man in the crowd.

Her breath hitched.

Song Yanbai greeted Xie Fanjun politely, but Xie Fanjun didn't react for a while.

Xie Jingfeng frowned. "Xiao Fan, what are you still standing there for?"

Xie Fanjun snapped out of her daze, blushing with embarrassment. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mr. Song, I'm so sorry."

Song Yanbai: "It's nothing."

Xie Jingfeng: "This is Miss Song, Mr. Song's sister. Don't neglect her. Take her to the courtyard for a stroll."

Xie Fanjun's pupils widened when she saw Song Shuyue standing to the side; what a beautiful woman.

"Miss Song, my name is Xie Fanjun, hello."

"My name is Song Shuyue."

As the two left, Song Yanbai watched his sister's retreating figure. Xie Jingfeng noticed his concern and said, "Yanbai, don't worry. Although my sister is a bit impulsive, she has a good personality and will definitely get along well with your sister."

Xie Fanjun became more talkative as soon as she stepped out the door.

"Miss Song, how old are you this year? Are you also from Beijing?"

"20. I'm currently in Beijing, but my hometown is Qingdao."

Xie Fanjun's voice suddenly rose, startling Song Shuyue. "Oh my, you're only twenty years old, and I'm already twenty-two. I'm two years older than you! Qing City, Qing City, your family is the richest in Qing City, and your father is Lin Yuanzhi, Uncle Lin!"

Uncle Lin and Dad are good friends; she's met him several times.

"You know him"

Before Song Shuyue could finish speaking, Xie Fanjun interrupted, "Of course I know him! Uncle Lin and my dad are very good friends. My parents are here. Come on, come on, they'll be so happy if they knew you were Uncle Lin's daughter."

Just as Song Shuyue was about to say no, she was pulled away by her.

“You didn’t see what that bastard said, telling me to have a child before I turn sixty. Oh my god, I’m so angry, I can’t take it anymore, I’ll just pretend I never had this son.”

"Haha, sister-in-law, we all saw it, and it was even posted in the group chat."

“Mother’s health will suffer if she gets angry. Have some tea to soothe her throat.”

The woman patted her daughter-in-law's hand. "Mingyue, you're so thoughtful. You get tired easily, so go and rest. You've been brewing tea for a long time."

Hai Mingyue shook her head. "Mother, I'm fine. Brother Feng has an important guest tonight, so this is what I should do."

Xie's mother sighed, "You should think more about yourself. What did the doctor say? You're still not fit to conceive."

Hai Mingyue's eyes darkened instantly, and she lowered her head in self-reproach.

"Mother, it's my fault for being useless."

Her body is so weak; after so many years of marriage, she still hasn't been able to give birth to a son or daughter for the Xie family.

Xie's mother: "I apologize for being nosy. It's not important whether you have a child or not. As long as you're happy."

"Ah."

Just then, before Xie Fanjun could even be seen, her voice broke through the hall.

"Mom and Dad! I want to introduce someone to you."

Everyone looked towards the doorway and saw a beautiful woman following behind Xie Fanjun. In that instant, Xie's mother seemed to see her future daughter-in-law.

Whose sweet girl is she?

He's so handsome.

Whoops.

It's absolutely gorgeous.

If she were to have a well-behaved granddaughter, she would be laughing in her dreams.

Xie Fanjun introduced Song Shuyue, "Dad, guess who she is?"

Mr. Xie said helplessly, "Alright, stop playing games."

"She is Uncle Lin's daughter, her name is Song Shuyue, and her older brother is having tea with her brother, Mr. Song."

Mr. and Mrs. Xie were both surprised, as they knew that Lin Yuanzhi had a daughter, who was born to his first love.

I didn't realize they'd grown so big.

"So you're Yuanzhi's daughter. Come, come, sit down. Your father and I have been friends for many years. You can just call me Uncle Xie."

Hello, Uncle Xie.

Song Shuyue greeted everyone politely, but an intense, undeniable gaze remained fixed on her.

It made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Xie Fanjun tugged at her mother's clothes, signaling her to come back to her senses.

Mother Xie realized what was happening, strode over, and grabbed Song Shuyue's hand. "Oh my, I never imagined you were his daughter! Shuyue, you're so pretty and beautiful. How old are you? Do you have a boyfriend?"

Even Hai Mingyue couldn't bear to watch any longer and pulled her mother aside.

"Mother, calm down."

Then he apologized to Song Shuyue, saying, "Miss Song, I'm so sorry, my mother likes pretty girls as soon as she sees them."

"fine."
