Song Fan responded with a feigned smile, saying, “Good evening, Mr. Gu.”

After that, she promptly returned to her seat in the middle of the room. Her greeting was courteous, but it was a perfunctory gesture given Gu Hails status as Gu Chen’s relative, not her own.

Gu Hai hadn’t anticipated such a reaction from Song Fan. Most young women who aspired to be with Gu Chen would attempt to ingratiate themselves with him. Unaware of the intricacies within the Gu Family, they believed that Gu Hai enjoyed a close relationship with Gu Chen.

Song Fan’s response left Gu Hai contemplating two possibilities. Either Song Fan was well-acquainted with the Gu Family’s dynamics, or she simply wasn’t interested in Gu Chen. Gu Hai hoped for the latter, recognizing the potential benefits of a union between Gu Chen and the Song Family’s eldest daughter.

Regarding the rumors surrounding Song Fan, Gu Hai didn’t take them seriously. In prominent families, blood ties held greater significance than anything else. No matter how remarkable an outsider might be, they could never surpass the bonds of family. Despite the friction between him and Gu

Chen, Gu Hai had no desire to become the subject of ridicule among outsiders.

As long as Song Fan remained within the Song family, it was only a matter of time before she was accepted by her relatives. Blood ties were powerful, and being siblings with the same parents would eventually lead to reconciliation.

Standing beside Song Ting, Song Yin observed the scene upstairs with curiosity. She leaned closer to her older brother and asked, “Big Brother, I never expected Sister to know Gu Chen. I’ve heard that Gu Chen’s schedule is incredibly secretive. Even private detectives struggle to locate him. How did they meet?”

Song Yin, while cautious in her approach, didn’t press the question further. Song Ting, though finding her words somewhat brusque, understood the importance of the inquiry. How had Song Fan become acquainted with Gu Chen?

He gazed at Song Fan from below and began to notice a distinctive aura of authority about her.

This commanding presence was a trait rarely seen in affluent young ladies and was typically associated with people who held significant power and were accustomed to giving orders.

Song Fan noticed Song Ting’s gaze from below, and they locked eyes for a moment.

Song Kai followed her gaze and smiled. “It’s Big Brother. I’ll go greet him first.”

After that, he hurried downstairs, leaving Song Fan behind. He believed that Song Fan, who had been invited to the second floor by Gu Chen, wouldn’t easily come down.

With Song Kai gone, Gu Hai’s curiosity got the better of him. He wore a

knowing smile and asked, “Miss Song, I’m curious when you first met Gu Chen. It’s quite unusual for him to extend a personal invitation to a young lady like this.”

Song Fan’s patience was running thin. She offered a perfunctory smile and replied, “You’ll have to inquire with Gu Chen about that. I don’t recall the details.”

Song Fan wasn’t here to enjoy herself. Her mission was to return the Buddhist beads, which she could sense held significant importance to Gu Chen. Once she returned it, her mission would be fulfilled.

Gu Hails sharp eyes caught the Buddhist beads on Song Fan’s wrist. He hadn’t expected Gu Chen to give such an item. He quickly commented, “The Buddhist beads on Miss Song’s wrist must be a gift from Gu Chen. He treasures those beads and carries them with him every day. It’s evident how important you are to him.”

Song Fan glanced at her wrist, observing the Buddhist beads, and offered a smile. “Mr. Gu has quite the sense of humor. If he can give these to me so casually, they can’t be that valuable.”

Gu Hai found himself utterly speechless for the first time. He hadn’t expected Song Fan to be so frustratingly nonchalant. Did Gu Chen say something to her?

With her patience waning, Song Fan was eager to conclude this conversation and find Gu Chen to return the Buddhist beads.

At the thought of that, Song Fan decided not to linger on the second floor any longer. She descended the stairs and made her way through the mansion. Along the way, the servants treated her with great respect, which made her feel uncomfortable.

Although Song Fan was dressed formally, she chose to wear simple Martin boots rather than high heels, allowing her to move quickly through the mansion.

Her sharp eyes had already noticed that Gu Chen was not in the banquet hall, so she hurriedly headed to the courtyard to find him.

At this moment, she encountered Gu Chen’s assistant, who was running anxiously around.

“What’s going on?” Song Fan approached and inquired.

Upon recognizing Song Fan, Su Yang quickly lowered his head and replied, “Miss Song, our young master isn’t feeling well, but there is no medical team here, so I’m quite worried.”

“I’ll go check on him,” Song Fan offered.

Knowing that the young master’s condition was a closely guarded secret, Su Yang hastily blocked her path. “Miss Song, I’ll contact a doctor right away.

There’s no need for you to trouble yourself..”
