After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

Chapter 65: Chapter 65 This Difficult Task is Entrusted to You!

“Lu Zhaozhao, you’re quite something,” she snorted sarcastically. “No sooner had the young one left than you hooked up with an older one, seamlessly! Tsk, tsk… Sinian is really unlucky, having a woman like you who’s so fickle in love.”

Hearing that voice, Lu Zhaozhao knew right away who it was.

Apart from Xia Wenjin, there was no one else in this school who had so much idle time to keep picking on her.

She was just about to turn around and battle with her when she saw Old Master Song take a quick step forward and stand in front of her, shouting loudly, “Young lady, can you take responsibility for what you just said?”

Xia Wenjin, disgusted, glanced at Old Master Song and sneered, “What? You want to sue me?”

The old man in front of her was dressed so casually, not a single thing he wore was valuable. She couldn’t figure out where Lu Zhaozhao had met such a person.

He could very well be one of the poor relatives from the Xia Family domestically.

Old Master Song looked at Xia Wenjin with a smirk not reaching his eyes and shook his head, “Why would I? Legal standards are too low to deal with trash like you.”

“You, you’re calling me trash?” Xia Wenjin stared at Old Master Song in disbelief. If it weren’t for the swearing in his words, she might have thought he was just making casual conversation, given his calm demeanor.

Old Master Song snorted coldly, “Calling you trash would actually be an insult to trash. The things you blurt out should put you more in the category of a trash can. You should have some self-awareness; don’t be clueless every day.”

Xia Wenjin was clearly infuriated by Old Master Song’s words and raised her hand to point at his nose and curse.

But as soon as she lifted her arm, Old Master Song immediately clutched his chest, “Oh, oh, my newly operated-on heart… If you touch me, it’ll be a starting fee of at least 500,000…”

Lu Zhaozhao was taken aback and reached out to support Old Master Song, only to see his wrinkled eyes blink at her.

She immediately understood, Old Master Song was faking it.

In her last life, she always saw an enfeebled Old Master Song; she never knew that he not only could curse people but also pretend to be injured…

Xia Wenjin had never seen such a scene before and retreated several steps, “You, don’t you try to blame me! I think you poor devils are just crazy for money!”

Watching Xia Wenjin’s frantic behavior, Lu Zhaozhao almost burst into laughter, but thankfully Old Master Song was a masterful actor.

With trembling hands, he acted as if he was about to faint any moment, facing Xia Wenjin.

“You… be careful! I will certainly make you regret this!” Xia Wenjin threw down those harsh words and ran away in a panic.

Seeing her reaction, Old Master Song made a face of disdain, “Really, every Tom, Dick, and Harry thinks they’re something.”

“Pfft—hahaha…”

Lu Zhaozhao couldn’t hold back anymore and burst out laughing.

Old Master Song looked at her bright smiling face and felt much better in a moment, “Ah, Zhaozhao, considering Grandpa just helped you out, how about you and Sinian come over for a meal in a few days?”

“Cough, cough, cough…” Lu Zhaozhao choked a bit when she heard him, coughing lightly.

She took a while to recover. “Grandpa, I need to discuss this with Mr. Song.”

He had seemed reluctant to return to the Song Mansion before. If she agreed impulsively and upset Sinian, it wouldn’t be good.

“Ah… Grandpa is old, even missed celebrating his own birthday because of a hospital stay,” Old Master Song’s wrinkled face sagged again, turning pitiful.

He almost started cleaning his face with tears in front of Lu Zhaozhao.

“Uh…” Lu Zhaozhao hesitated for a moment.

Then she heard Old Master Song saying, “Sinian has always been a man who does as he pleases, but if you mention it to him, he will definitely be willing, so Grandpa can only count on you now!”

“But…”

“That settles it! You’ll come home for dinner this weekend. If Sinian is unwilling, just act coquettishly towards him. Grandpa will be waiting for you at home!” Before Lu Zhaozhao could finish her sentence, Old Master Song made the decision amidst the confusion.

“Grandpa, I…”

“This challenging task is entrusted to you! If it’s accomplished, Grandpa will have a generous reward for you!”

“…”

Meanwhile, Xia Wenjin, having left, dashed back home the first chance she got to complain to Cao Mei.

Seeing Xia Wenjin’s tear-streaked face, Cao Mei’s expression grew extremely dark.

“Lu Zhaozhao is simply outrageous! If it weren’t for the fact that the jade vein hasn’t been secured yet, I would have certainly taken care of that little vixen!”

Xia Wenjin clearly understood Cao Mei’s intentions. She sniffed her nose and embraced her arm, saying, “Mom, you said before that you would find a way for me to marry into the Song Family. When can we proceed?”

Cao Mei patted her arm soothingly and said, “You can’t rush this. If you want to marry into the Song Family, we might need to collaborate with Xiao Jinglan.”

Thinking thus, she narrowed her eyes. They had just signed a contract recently, so bringing up some additional conditions now shouldn’t be a problem, right?

Cao Mei glanced at Xia Wenjin, whose hopeful gaze was fixed steadily on her, causing her to sigh softly.

“I’ll call Xiao Jinglan right now; you just wait patiently.”

Saying this, she dialed Xiao Jinglan’s number.

Soon, the call was answered.@@novelbin@@

Xiao Jinglan seemed surprised to receive a call from Cao Mei. “Hello? Mrs. Lu?”

Before she could finish speaking, Cao Mei’s voice came through, “Lady Xiao, I have a plan I’d like to discuss with you concerning a marriage between the Song Family and the Lu Family.”

Xiao Jinglan frowned slightly, repeating subconsciously, “A marriage between the Song Family and the Lu Family?”

Hadn’t Lu Zhaozhao already married Song Sinian? What was there left to discuss?

Cao Mei, fully aware of Xiao Jinglan’s thoughts, cut straight to the point, “I want Wenjin to marry Song Sinian, since she is the true precious daughter of our family.”

Xiao Jinglan was visibly shocked. She was about to refuse when Xiao Mo, sitting opposite her, suddenly covered the receiver.

He hurriedly wrote a line on a napkin, “Don’t refuse.”

Though slightly surprised, Xiao Jinglan continued along the lines Cao Mei had laid out, “So what are your plans?”

“I think Lady Xiao, having been with President Song for so long and knowing him well, surely could help our Wenjin, right? After all, we’re going to be close partners in the future…” Cao Mei purposely used the contract to press her point, attempting to manipulate Xiao Jinglan.

Hearing this, Xiao Jinglan rolled her eyes internally.

When asking for a favor, one should at least show the attitude of seeking help. Where does the Lu Family get their sense of superiority from, huh!

Just as she was about to speak, she saw Xiao Mo writing again on the napkin—
