The word itself held no particular significance, but when it reached Song Yin’s ears, it sounded like it was all her wishful thinking—Song Ting didn’t care about her at all.

She had no option but to initiate a conversation. “I recall Big Brother never had a penchant for novels. Why are you engrossed in Agatha Christie now?”

Song Ting responded, “Song Fan enjoys it, so I read it to her.”

This revelation hit Song Yin like a thunderbolt. She couldn’t fathom that Song Ting could be so tender, especially when it wasn’t directed toward her.

Unable to bear it any longer, she turned on her heels and left.

Song Ting and Song Fan didn’t concern themselves with her whereabouts. One continued to lay with closed eyes, while the other had started to read the story.

Song Yin rushed back to her room in one breath, seated herself on the floor, and tears flowed uncontrollably. Her eyes, however, were brimming with jealousy and hatred.

She had been by her Big Brother’s side for so many years and had finally received a bit of affection. Why does everything change the moment Song Fan returns?

At that moment, Song Fan occupied her mind, leaving no room for anything else.

“Song Fan, I heard from my grandfather that you’ll also be attending the banquet. Is that true?”

Song Fan, puzzled, replied, “I’ve already committed, so I’ll definitely be there.”

Fu Nian responded with a happy smile, “Then, may I pick you up?”

Song Ting interjected, “No need. I’ll escort my sister. Are there any issues with me attending the banquet?”

Fu Nian hadn’t anticipated Song Ting’s presence and quickly changed the course of the conversation. He nodded and said, “Of course, you’re more than welcome, Brother Song.”

Upon ending the call, Song Ting muttered with a cold snort, “I have a feeling this kid has ulterior motives.”

“But I didn’t sense anything,” Song Fan replied, puzzled. “He simply inquired about my attendance, there is nothing more.”

Song Ting worried that his little sister might be taken advantage of, warning, “Fu Nian has always been haughty. You went to the Fu Family to break off the engagement. Logically, he shouldn’t want to see you, but now, he specifically called to check your attendance at the banquet. He must have some other motive.”

Song Fan hadn’t expected Song Ting to express such concerns. She sighed and commented, “You’d make an excellent detective.”

“That’s your Second Brother’s line of work. I’m not vying for it,” Song Ting responded.

At that moment, Song Fan recalled her two older brothers who were living abroad. Her Second Brother, Song Huai, had been abroad for an extended period and had gained a reputation as a renowned detective, assisting the police in solving many high-profile cases worldwide.
