“How can that be?” Duan Feng disagreed. “If you had informed me in advance, I could have prepared a carefully crafted meal. A Rushing into cooking is unworthy of your palate.”

“I’m starving right now. You should hurry up and start cooking,” Song Fan replied playfully.

Duan Feng didn’t want to keep her waiting and quickly responded, “Please wait here. I’ll have two plates of pastries sent over immediately to curb your hunger.”

Afterward, he turned and headed back to the kitchen. Only then did Song Kai close his open mouth and comment, “Song Fan, I didn’t expect you to know Duan Feng personally. I’ve never seen him with such a pleasant expression.”

Duan Feng wasn’t just the chef at Phoenix Restaurant; he was also the youngest son of the Duan Group. Although the connection between Duan and Song families wasn’t particularly close, there were occasional business interactions between them. Therefore, Song Kai had encountered Duan Feng at company events in the past.

Song Kai said exaggeratedly to Song Fan, “You have no idea how intimidating he looked with that cold expression. He didn’t even crack a smile, as if someone owed him millions.”

Song Fan wasn’t surprised and explained, “He’s not fond of such occasions, so he tends to act that way.”

Upon learning of Duan Feng’s identity, Song Yin eagerly approached and inquired, “Sister, you’re incredible. You actually know the head chef here. How did you two meet?”

She maintained a polite smile to conceal her deep envy. Why did Song Fan have connections with someone of such high status? After all, she had spent years in the countryside and should have known only ordinary villagers.

Song Fan turned to her and replied, “No comment.”

She felt no obligation to satisfy Song Yin’s curiosity. In her eyes, Duan Feng was just a friend, and his background had no bearing on their relationship.

Upon hearing Song Fan’s response, Song Yin lowered her head and silently shed tears. It was a familiar expression she had often used in her youth, one that had led everyone to believe Song Fan was bullying her.

However, today, she cried for several minutes without anyone paying her any mind. Song Ting was engrossed in handling company matters on his phone and occasionally received calls from his secretary, entirely unaware of Song Yin’s distress.

Song Kai, on the other hand, was wrapped up in conversation with Song Fan, talking non-stop as if he had an endless supply of topics to discuss. He had no time to check on Song Yin.

As a result, she found herself uncertain about whether to continue crying. It felt as though she was on her own, with neither of her two brothers showing any concern for her.

Song Fan did notice her but chose to feign ignorance. She would rather enjoy a few more pastries than pay attention to Song Yin.

Duan Feng finished cooking very swiftly, and the table was soon filled with an array of dishes. Song Kai remarked with a sigh, “These are all signature dishes from Phoenix Restaurant.

Usually, one table can only order a limited number of dishes. It’s quite unusual to see such a spread today.”

Duan Feng entered the room with a warm smile. “It’s been a while since you

last dined here. I’ve prepared all your favorite dishes. Please enjoy.”

Song Fan picked up a bite with her chopsticks and complimented, “Your culinary skills are as exceptional as ever. There’s no one who can cook better than you.”

Upon observing Duan Feng’s friendly demeanor, Song Yin interjected,

“Brother, I adore your signature dishes. I wonder if they’re on the table?”

Song Yin’s voice carried a sweet tone, and she even addressed him as “brother,” a tactic that had a magnetic effect on many people. It had certainly captivated some of the boys at her school.

However, just as she thought she had successfully charmed Duan Feng, his expression suddenly turned cold. “Your preferences have nothing to do with me.”

Duan Feng was aware of the allegations against Song Fan and had no belief that Song Fan would do such things. Thus, he held no good impression of the Song Family.

It was the first time that Song Yin had received such a cold response, and she felt on the verge of tears.

She hung her head low, and large teardrops fell. This kind of crying was truly heart-wrenching, but unfortunately, Duan Feng remained unsympathetic because Song Fan introduced, “This is Song Yin.”

Duan Feng was aware of Song Yin’s actions, thus he had a strong aversion to this particular someone he had never met before. He waved his hand dismissively and said, “I have no interest in getting to know her.”

In response to Duan Feng’s obvious annoyance, Song Ting commented, “Yinyin doesn’t know you. It sounds a bit rude to say that.”

Duan Feng responded without concern, “I’ve always been straightforward. I’m only accommodating you all because of Song Fan. There’s no need to coax her.”

Song Ting’s expression grew serious as he looked at Song Fan and asked, “Is this person your friend?”

In Song Ting’s view, it was reasonable to form friendships with exceptional people, and Duan Feng’s attitude seemed to suggest that Song Fan had poor judgment in her choice of friends.

Song Ting’s inquiry carried a hint of condescension. In response, Song Fan regarded him with a chilly gaze. “And what if this is my friend?”

From her perspective, Duan Feng was far superior to the Song Family. This was the family she had chosen for herself, and she wouldn’t allow Song Yin’s actions to cast doubt on her decisions..
