Chapter 26

4 PM,

Song Qian’s home.

Looking at the several mothers who had visited suddenly, Song Qian felt a headache.

At noon,

she only agreed to Tong Wenjie that Fang Yifan could come over to study with Yingzi.

But Song Qian never expected

that by the afternoon,

Lin Miaomiao’s mother, Wang Shengnan,

Qian Sanyi’s mother, Pei Yin,

Ji Yangyang’s mother, Liu Jing,

and even Li Ping (from *Hidden Love*), the mother of Sang Zhi from the neighboring community, whom she had only met a few times, had all come with gifts.

Although everyone was exchanging pleasantries and complimenting each other as soon as they met,

saying my skin is good, saying you have no wrinkles,

but,

Song Qian knew very well in her heart

that these women were all here for Qin Feng!

To be precise, they were all here for Qin Feng’s tutoring class!

However,

Song Qian had clearly agreed with Qin Feng that he would only tutor Qiao Yingzi.

How did so many people come suddenly!

Tong Wenjie, you really have an extra mouth!

With anger rising,

Song Qian smiled and told the others she had something to do and would leave for a moment.

Subsequently, she returned to her room, locked the door,

and called Tong Wenjie: "Tong Wenjie, what’s going on with you? Don't you have any restraint in your mouth?"

"It was fine that you let Fang Yifan come, but you went around talking nonsense. Now it’s great; several mothers have come to my house, and they are all hinting that they want their children to come over for tutoring!"

"It’s fine if you say those who are in their third year of high school, but one came who is in her second year! That Sang Zhi, yes, from the neighboring community!"

"I already told Sang Zhi’s mother that there is no need for tutoring in the second year of high school, but her mother said something about 'early influence.' Her daughter is already first in the grade; what else is there to influence?!"

After Song Qian finished scolding angrily,

Tong Wenjie on the other end of the phone felt very aggrieved.

Regarding this matter,

she really just mentioned it casually to Wang Shengnan.

She didn't expect it to turn out like this now.

But now she was at the company and couldn't go back to deal with this problem.

So she could only say nicely: "Qianqian, don't be angry. This matter really isn't my fault!"

"I just met Wang Shengnan on the bus back to the company and mentioned it casually. Who knew Wang Shengnan would spread it everywhere!"

"Qianqian, I’m at the company and can't go back. Why don't you chase them all away first, and we can discuss it after I come back?"

"Me chase people away?"

Song Qian was so angry she laughed: "Tong Wenjie, are you embarrassed? Oh, you tell others the news and act like a good person, and now you want me to chase people away and be the bad guy?"

"These are all neighbors; if I chase them away directly, can we still associate in the future?"

"And they are all here for the big event of their children’s college entrance exam. You tell me who to chase and who not to chase?!"

"Then what should we do..."

On the other end of the phone, Tong Wenjie was also at a loss: "Then how about I ask for leave and rush back now, and we can discuss it secretly."

"Discuss my ass. You coming will only add to the chaos. Alright, go do your work!"

Hanging up the phone angrily,

Song Qian sat in the room for a while to ease her emotions.

Subsequently,

she squeezed out a smile again and walked out of the room.

Bringing out fruit,

and chatting with the several mothers for a while,

Song Qian looked up at the clock in the living room,

and said loudly on purpose: "Oh, it’s already 5:30. The children should be out of school. I have to hurry and cook."

After Song Qian finished speaking,

she looked at the other mothers,

thinking that the other mothers would understand what she meant and leave voluntarily.

But what Song Qian didn't expect was

that the other mothers had no intention of leaving at all.

Ji Yangyang’s mother said directly: "Qianqian, it’s rare for everyone to get together. Why don't we call the children and go out to eat together?"

"Right."

Pei Yin immediately echoed: "I know a seafood restaurant; the taste is good and it’s affordable. Why don't I book a large private room, and we can all eat together tonight?"

"Seafood is fine."

Sang Zhi’s mother, Li Ping, took over the conversation: "Let me do it. Pei Yin, you might not be very familiar with it since you just returned to China. I have memberships at several seafood restaurants, and I can get a discount if I book a meal."

"Eat seafood?"

Lin Miaomiao’s mother, Wang Shengnan, hesitated, not knowing whether to split the bill.

So she made another suggestion: "Why don't we go eat hot pot? Miaomiao has been talking about hot pot at home. It’s lively for us to eat hot pot with many people."

"Hot pot won't work. My Sang Zhi is allergic to beef and mutton. Let’s have seafood."

Li Ping directly denied Wang Shengnan’s proposal,

and then looked at Song Qian: "Qianqian, you tell us, what shall we eat?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at her,

Song Qian understood that they really wouldn't leave.

However,

Song Qian hadn't mentioned this to Qin Feng at all.

If Qin Feng came and saw so many people, thinking she had set a trap on purpose,

then Song Qian really wouldn't be able to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River!

Song Qian didn't want to be misunderstood by Qin Feng,

so she had to shake her head and refuse: "I’m really sorry, we have something to do at home today, so it’s not convenient to eat out. Why don't we make another appointment another day?"

Song Qian hinted again,

but the other mothers still had no intention of leaving.

Although Liu Jing understood what Song Qian meant,

she didn't want to miss this opportunity either,

so she said: "Actually, it’s quite convenient to eat at home. Qianqian, I can call and have them deliver it. Really."

Li Ping understood and dialed the seafood restaurant’s phone directly: "Hello, I am Li Ping. Mm, I want to order delivery, yes..."

Pei Yin also advised: "Qianqian, it’s not easy for everyone to get together, so let’s just have a meal together."

Wang Shengnan looked at her WeChat balance and then echoed calmly: "Yes, the opportunity is rare, let’s get together. How lively."

"..."

Song Qian knew that these women were determined not to leave,

so she nodded helplessly: "Alright then, it’s just that the place at home is not big, so we might have to squeeze a bit."

"Hi, it doesn't matter if we squeeze."

Wang Shengnan said with a smile: "It’s more lively with more people."

Subsequently,

Wang Shengnan gave Li Ping and the others a look,

and then said: "By the way, Qianqian, since everyone is here, why don't you tell Yingzi’s tutor to come over and have a meal together?"

"..."

I knew you were all here for Qin Feng!

Song Qian complained helplessly in her heart,

and had to take out her phone and send a WeChat to Qin Feng: "Qin Feng, come home for dinner earlier today. There’s something at home..."

Half a minute later,

the phone notification sounded.

Song Qian opened WeChat and saw

Qin Feng just replied with a simple "Okay."

Seeing this,

Song Qian felt uneasy,

and couldn't help but ask in her heart: "Song Qian, oh Song Qian, if Qin Feng gets angry because of this, what will you do!"
