“Why are you here?” Zhou Hengguang’s surprise was evident as he glanced at his little cousin who had suddenly appeared. “I heard your house is quite lively today. Lots of relatives showed up.”

“Don’t even get me started. They’re all so bothersome,” Xu Xiaoxiao replied dismissively, finding herself a seat without bothering to greet anyone, including Feng Yanze who was nearby.

“What happened?”

“It’s all Song Zishan’s fault. She’s causing trouble as soon as she arrives.”

“The Song family’s little princess?” Zhou Hengguang asked, pondering the situation.

“Yes, that’s the one. She knows that Su Wen and her sister are Professor Su’s daughters. She made a scene about it at the restaurant earlier. I’m afraid everyone Imows by now. ”

“Professor Su?” Feng Yanze, who had remained silent, couldn’t help but inquire.

Xu Xiaoxiao shrugged helplessly. “See, even Feng Yanze is surprised. How could anyone else not be curious? The conflict between the Song family and Professor Su seemed resolved with his passing, but it doesn’t seem so now.” Zhou Hengguang rubbed his temples. “Do Aunt and Uncle know about this?”

“I’m not sure,” Xu Xiaoxiao replied, certain that Professor Su’s daughters were causing quite a stir. If her parents were aware, they would have been prepared and wouldn’t have allowed the Song family to attend. They probably wouldn’t have even hosted the banquet.

“We’re in trouble!” Zhou Hengguang exclaimed, though his expression didn’t quite match his words. Instead, he seemed rather pleased. “You and Big Brother kept it from Aunt and Uncle. You’re both in trouble.”

“This matter is in the past. Professor Su is no longer with us. What’s there to bring up?” Xu Xiaoxiao had only speculated about Su Wen’s father being called Su Xuewen as he heard someone mention it during her first visit to Su Wen’s house. But since the Su sisters didn’t know, there was no need to mention it.

“Big brother and Professor Su probably wanted to protect them…” Zhou Hengguang surmised that before Professor Su passed away, he must have arranged for his daughters to stay out of the limelight in the countryside indefinitely. Yet, his daughter’s exceptional abilities made that difficult.

Moreover, keeping Su Wen and her sisters trapped in a small mountain village forever wouldn’t be fair to them. It’s one thing if they lack the ability, but if they do have it and are kept in the dark, it’s just unfair.

“It’s obvious that Zhou Hengyang has changed his mind. Once we’re in the provincial capital, we’re bound to be recognized, ” Xu Xiaoxiao grumbled unhappily.

Today’s events were hardly surprising. It was only a matter of time.

“People change,” Zhou Hengguang remarked. Though he couldn’t fathom his Big Brother’s thoughts, he had weighed the consequences of his actions. The only unexpected factor was Liu Chun’s accident in the northwest, forcing him to leave suddenly.

In the provincial capital, his sister-in-law would likely face trouble. But Liu Chun’s life was at stake, and he had to go. Zhou Hengguang imagined his brother must have agonized over the decision. Did Big Brother know about this situation?

He surely did.

Lost in thought, Zhou Hengguang was interrupted by the ringing of his desk phone. Upon recognizing the caller, he cursed inwardly.

“I heard someone from the Song family showed up?” Zhou Hengyang’s voice came through the phone with urgency. He wasted no time with pleasantries. “Keep an eye on your sister-in-law for me. If anything goes wrong, you’re dead. ”

Zhou Hengguang solemnly promised, “Don’t worry, Big Brother.”

“Wenwen doesn’t know anything yet,” Zhou Hengyang added, a hint of distress evident in his voice.

“In that case, Big Brother, do you want to tell her?” It seemed better to hear it from him than from someone else.

“I promised father-in-law I’d keep it a secret forever,” he said..
