Rebirth: I Became Mr.President’s Beloved

Chapter 23: Chapter 23 How Did Mr. Song Come Here? Chapter 23: Chapter 23 How Did Mr. Song Come Here? Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation He must have noticed the backpack on his shoulder.

“Hmm, it’s linear algebra, but the school leaders just called me to the office for something.”

As she spoke, she couldn’t help but quietly observe the man beside her.

Song Baiyan leaned against the seat, legs crossed, appearing relaxed. His deep camel-colored leather shoes, like his casual attire, were less stern, allowing one to feel a bit more at ease in his presence.

“Did your father give you a hard time when you returned to the Lai Family last night?”

Tang Li was caught off guard and forgot to reply for a moment.

The fact that she was Lai Wenyan’s daughter was only known to the Lai Family People.

…It was unlikely that Lai Wenyan would tell outsiders.

After all, in his eyes, this daughter of his was a stain from the first half of his life.

In the air hung a faint smell of blood.

Seeing she didn’t answer, Song Baiyan did not press her for a response. Like a tolerant and enlightened elder, he would not make things difficult for her but simply instructed Ji Ming, “Take a trip to the nearby hospital.”

Ji Ming glanced at the rearview mirror to remind him, “Mr. Song, you have an appointment with Director Bai at noon.”

“No need for the hospital,” Tang Li spoke up wisely, “I’m fine. If there’s a pharmacy along the way, you can just drop me at the door, and I can buy some iodine and cotton swabs myself.”

Before her words finished, a pharmacy appeared on the street ahead.

When the sedan turned off on the roadside, Ji Ming stepped out to the pharmacy before Tang Li could.

Tang Li wanted to say it was unnecessary, but Song Baiyan said, “Don’t worry, Ji Ming can handle this little matter.”

It actually wasn’t a matter of trust.

The quiet inside the car made Tang Li feel like she couldn’t breathe.

And it made her feel like she was being too clever for her own good.

She quickly reviewed her words and actions and didn’t notice anything particularly forced.

But—
Considering who the man sharing the car with her was, she still felt uneasy.

At the age of 28, Song Baiyan became the Finance Minister, once breaking the usual rules of official appointments, and next year, at 32, this man would become the youngest President in the history of the country.

Such a Song Baiyan undoubtedly possessed exceptional political skill.

Therefore, the entire Lai Family wouldn’t dare to be presumptuous in front of him.

After returning to the Lai Family last night, she remembered and guessed why Song Baiyan would appear at Old Madam Lai’s birthday banquet.

Old Madam Lai’s maiden name was Fang, and her brother had a daughter named Fang Qi.

In her past life, she followed Lai Yuanyuan to a film set.

During a break, as she returned from the bathroom, she saw Lai Yuanyuan leaning under an umbrella, wearing sunglasses and a sunhat, with a personal assistant fanning and peeling grapefruits beside her, holding a mini fan herself, and overheard her complaining to a staff member, “If my aunt hadn’t died in a car accident right after her engagement, the President now would have been my uncle!”

As for Song Baiyan knowing her identity…

Tang Li had the illusion that while she wanted to play a game of trying to conceal her identity, the other party already knew all her cards, as if whatever she said or did or whatever her intentions, the other party already had a clear understanding, and it was just a matter of whether they wanted to expose her.

Her thoughts twisted and turned when Ji Ming returned at this time.

Seeing the medicine bag in Ji Ming’s hand, she preempted, “Since Mr. Song is busy, I won’t hold you up. I can walk back to school from here, it’s only about ten minutes away.”

Seeing her act like a well-behaved little quail, Ji Ming turned his head to look at his master.

He had only left for a few minutes, what had Mr. Song done to scare the poor girl as if she were sitting in a hearse?
