Song Nuanyi’s gaze turned to the family of three sitting on the sofa in the living room. Sitting in the middle was a middle-aged man. He was the head of the Zheng family, Zheng Xiaoze. She had t him once at a banquet, so she knew him. Sitting beside him was a noblewoman. It seed that she was the wife of the Zheng family. This wife was a legendary figure in upper-class society. It was said that she ca from an ordinary family and did not like rich families. Therefore, she never interacted with the ladies of the rich and powerful, so very few people had seen her.
The young man sitting next to Lady Zheng looked quite similar to Zheng Qilin. He was the eldest young master of the Zheng family, Zheng Guaner.
When they saw Song Nuanyi, Lady Zheng was the first to rush over. Lady Zheng ran to her side, grabbed her hand, and asked excitedly, “Qilin spoke to you, didn’t he?”
Song Nuanyi did not understand why she was so excited. She answered truthfully, “The last ti I saw Second Young Master Zheng on the street, I did say a few words.”
Song Nuanyi guessed in her heart, could it be that they did not allow others to speak to Zheng Qilin? Or could it be that they wanted to keep Zheng Qilin’s low intelligence a secret?
She was a little nervous. If they provoked the Zheng family at this ti, the Song family’s situation would be even worse.
Mrs. Zheng’s eyes flashed with joy. She excitedly pulled her toward Zheng Xiaoze and said, “Hubby, Qilin really talked to Miss Song.”
Zheng Xiaoze sized up Song Nuanyi with a hint of wariness.
Song Nuanyi gradually realized that things were not quite what she had imagined. No matter how she looked at it, Mrs. Zheng’s expression was one of surprise. There should be sothing she did not know.
Zheng Xiaoze nodded and asked Lady Zheng to co back and sit down. Then he said, “It’s the Zheng family’s fault for inviting Miss Song over so late at night, but we have a favor to ask of you. After the matter is done, our Zheng family will naturally reward you handsoly.”
Song Nuanyi relaxed when she heard this. She asked, “May I know what favor you want to help you with?”
As soon as she said this, the eyes of the three Zheng family mbers flashed with a hint of heaviness. They looked at a room on the second floor at the sa ti. Song Nuanyi followed their gaze and did not find anything unusual.
“It’s for my second son. You’ve seen him before, so you should know about his situation.” Zheng Xiaoze continued with so bitterness, “When this child was young, he encountered so problems and beca like this. Not only does he have a problem with his intelligence, but he also has autism. Recently, no matter how we tried to persuade him, he would not eat. Every day, he would just hold onto a baked sweet potato, but he would not eat anything. After our investigation, we found out that you had contact with him.”
......
“Apart from us, you are the only person who is willing to speak to him. Therefore, I would like you to persuade him. We invited you here because that child has been malnourished since he was young. He has already fainted twice today,” Lady Zheng said, her eyes were filled with the helplessness and bitterness of a mother.
Song Nuanyi finally understood. However, she did not realize that Zheng Qilin was an autistic child. The last ti she saw him, he was quite talkative. She was a little puzzled, but she also knew that it was not that the Zheng family did not love Zheng Qilin, but that they loved him too much.
“Even if you are his family, you can’t convince him. How can a stranger like do it? I’ve only t him once.” Song Nuanyi did not have much confidence.
Zheng Xiaoze said, “I’ve also heard about the Song family’s situation. As long as Miss Song can help, the Zheng family will always stand on the Song family’s side.”
This promise was too important to her. She could not help but consider it. If she wanted to find a backer with a strong background, was there anyone more suitable than the Zheng family?
