Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of a Heroic Man

Chapter 1223: Chapter 1223 Drinking Wine

“Forget it, Auntie Feng,” Song Jinyan finally spoke up. “Sometimes, living can be more painful than being dead.”

Auntie Feng’s anger was far from quelled, and she knew that the old general must be feeling uncomfortable at the moment. On one hand, his biological son, and his emotionless granddaughter. On the other, a deeply loved pseudo-granddaughter who grew up under his affection.

Both the palm and the back of the hand are flesh, and even if he didn’t say it, Auntie Feng knew the old general’s difficulty and partiality in his heart.

Partiality?

Why should that superficial bastard be favored?

Just because she was sweet-talking from a young age? So she deserves credit for great service?

Auntie Feng didn’t agree, but she still heeded Song Jinyan’s words and stepped aside.

The guards quickly dragged Song Zishan out.

“I’m in a bad mood right now, Jin Yan, you drink with me.” Auntie Feng had watched Song Jinyan grow up, calling him “Young Master” in public, but they were very close in private.

Song Jinyan had always treated Auntie Feng like his own aunt.

She was originally the grandfather’s adopted daughter, and her biological father was a subordinate of his grandfather on the battlefield who had heroically sacrificed himself in a breakout battle. But Auntie Feng never mentioned these things, nor did she use them to brag about anything.

Over the years, she had always been low-key, diligent, and highly capable.

In her youth, Auntie Feng was Feng Cuilou, whose reputation as the beautiful and indispensable secretary in the confidential office spread far and wide. She became the first secretary of the office based on her skills, managing dozens of core personnel in the entire office.

If not mentioned, who could tell?

“Sure!” Song Jinyan was very familiar with Auntie Feng and knew her temperament, so he wasn’t surprised and immediately called Songshan to drive.

The three of them went to an old and well-known restaurant that Song Jinyan frequented. Auntie Feng didn’t speak at all on the way, her face looked gloomy. Once in the restaurant’s private room, Songshan went to order food. When he returned, he had a bottle of red wine and a corkscrew in hand.

When he entered, he chased away the waiter who had followed them in.

“Why red wine?” Auntie Feng glanced at it and said discontentedly, “Change it to white, Moutai.”

Songshan looked uncertainly at Song Jinyan.

Song Jinyan nodded.

Songshan immediately went out, and just after he left the door, he heard a follow-up from behind, “Three bottles, one for each of us.”

Song Jinyan added quietly, “Auntie Feng can drink a bottle by herself.”

Auntie Feng: “Which secretary can’t hold their liquor?”

Songshan was almost in tears because he couldn’t, not only could he not drink, but he also had an extremely poor tolerance, collapsing after just one glass. Not a glass of white liquor, but a glass of beer.

However, Songshan quickly returned with the white liquor, opened a bottle for both Song Jinyan and Auntie Feng, and obediently sat aside drinking boiled water, then listened to Auntie Feng, who began complaining incessantly while drinking white wine with the peanuts, soy beef, and pickled jellyfish head that were served first.

Once she opened her mouth, it was like she couldn’t close it again, as if she had to get all the words she had been holding back in her heart out to feel relieved.

“Do you think your grandfather has gone senile? I’m not sure whether he’s become softer or colder,” Auntie Feng grumbled.

Song Jinyan didn’t speak, merely emptied Auntie Feng’s glass and refilled it, then joined her for a drink.

After gulping it down, Auntie Feng continued to rant, “I just can’t swallow this anger, do you know what irritates me the most?”

“What is it?”

“It’s your grandfather, how could he be so heartless? Even though he found out the truth long ago, he kept it from all of us. Fine! My surname is Feng, and I’m an outsider who has no say in the Song family’s affairs. But how could he keep it from you, from your father?”
