After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 158 - : She Never Expected Such Shameless Favoritism
Chapter 158: Chapter 158: She Never Expected Such Shameless Favoritism
“Zhaozhao, I know you don’t like me, but you can’t treat me this way just because I wore Brother Sinian’s clothes, right?”
Her miserable appearance, looking up at Lu Zhaozhao, portrayed herself as a victim of bullying.
Lu Zhaozhao’s brows furrowed in an instant. What act was she putting on now?
While she was still puzzled, that tall figure had already approached them.
“Mr. Song? Why did you come out?” Lu Zhaozhao looked at Song Sinian in confusion, suddenly realizing what Keren’s recent flurry was about.
She must have seen Song Sinian coming out early on, so she deliberately staged this act, right?
As soon as Keren saw Song Sinian approach, she immediately crawled towards him.
Song Sinian’s eyelids slightly lifted, and he instinctively stepped back, standing beside Lu Zhaozhao.
“Sinian Brother, I know Zhaozhao doesn’t like me, but… but just now…” Keren stammered out, looking as pitiful as could be with tears like pear blossoms.
If Lu Zhaozhao wasn’t the person involved, she might have believed Keren was the victim.
Thinking this, Lu Zhaozhao turned her gaze to Song Sinian, suddenly worried whether he might believe Keren’s words.
After all, from the direction he had just looked, there could be a visual misunderstanding, just in case…
“You know she doesn’t like you, so don’t loiter around her. I wouldn’t blame her for pushing you, and even if she hit you, you would deserve it.” Song Sinian spoke without hesitation, completely dispelling any worry Lu Zhaozhao had.
She had anticipated Song Sinian’s biased protection, but such shameless favoritism was beyond her expectations.
Keren also didn’t expect Song Sinian’s words to be so harsh; she was so shocked that she froze mid-cry.
“Sin, Brother Sinian… what I just said…”
“I already told you, I don’t have a sister, call me President Song. If you don’t understand, you’d better not speak at all.” Song Sinian looked at Keren coldly, his tone chilling.
Lu Zhaozhao’s brows slightly twitched, and she quietly glanced at Song Sinian, clearly feeling the pressure in the air drop significantly.
It seemed that Mr. Song truly disliked Keren.
Keren was so frightened by Song Sinian’s aura that she couldn’t even muster an explanation; her legs weakened, and she stammered, “I, I…”
She nervously clutched the blazer she wore, her knuckles turning visibly white.
Lu Zhaozhao suddenly seemed to recall something and leaned in to whisper to Song Sinian, “Mr. Song, is the clothing she’s wearing yours?”
Keren had been using the clothing as a point of contention to provoke her, so she was curious if it was true.
Song Sinian glanced at Keren before turning to Lu Zhaozhao, “That clothing is indeed mine, but it got wet, so I changed in my room and had the butler throw it away.”
Now, Lu Zhaozhao understood completely.
Keren deliberately wore Song Sinian’s clothes to try to drive a wedge between them, right?
However, this tactic might work on others, but not on Song Sinian.
Song Sinian was too pragmatic and never spared face for others.
So Keren’s actions just now were nothing short of suicidal.

Lu Zhaozhao glanced at Keren, curling her lip coldly, “The trash bins at the Song Mansion are quite special.”
“…”
Song Sinian reached out to pinch her cheeks, “You must be hungry, right? Let’s go inside to eat.”
“Yeah!” Lu Zhaozhao immediately hugged Song Sinian’s arm, her eyes smiling brightly, “Let’s go in quickly, don’t keep grandfather waiting.”
“Mm.”
The two left without paying any further attention to Keren.
Watching the two disappear, Song Keren gritted her teeth, “Lu Zhaozhao, I won’t let you off so easily!”
Her eyes narrowed, and she soon had another idea in mind.
Having come to the Song Mansion already, how could she let Lu Zhaozhao have such an easy time? Hmph!
Old Master Song, in anticipation of Lu Zhaozhao’s arrival, had the meals prepared early. Now with everyone here, dinner was naturally about to begin.
“Here, Zhaozhao, have a chicken leg.”
“Thank you, Grandpa.”
Old Master Song, with a smile, served Lu Zhaozhao some food, delighted by her polite demeanor as she ate. The more he watched her, the more pleasing she became to his eyes.
Since Lu Zhaozhao and Song Sinian got married, his exchanges with Song Sinian almost matched the total number of exchanges they had had in the past years.
Not to mention having a proper meal at the same table.
Every time, this brat would eat silently at the Song Mansion and leave right after—each family banquet to him was nothing but a chore.
If it weren’t for Zhao Xi livening up the atmosphere every time, the dinners he shared with Song Sinian would be suffocating.
Now, wasn’t it more comfortable to eat and even feed his precious granddaughter-in-law?
“Here, Zhaozhao, have some spinach.”
As he said this, he placed some spinach on Lu Zhaozhao’s plate, but Song Sinian quickly intercepted it.
He glanced coolly at Old Master Song and said icily, “She doesn’t like spinach, she mentioned it last time.”
“Uh…” Old Master Song paused, frowning slightly as he suddenly recalled such a moment.
He had even vowed then not to let the kitchen prepare it anymore…
Old Master Song awkwardly curled his lips, “Zhaozhao, Grandpa didn’t do it on purpose…”
Song Sinian coolly replied, “Indeed, it wasn’t on purpose, just a bit senile.”
“…”
Old Master Song raised his eyebrows but didn’t get angry.
Was this brat starting to “proactively” talk to him?
Indeed, it was their family Zhaozhao who had a way with taming her husband!
Xiao Jinglan watched Lu Zhaozhao, who was managing her interactions at the dining table adeptly, and gave Song Keren a look, signaling her to perform a bit as well.
Lu Zhaozhao was already favored enough in the Song Family; they couldn’t let her keep overshadowing everyone else.
Song Keren had just come back to the country not long ago and still needed the support of the Song Family, especially Old Master Song.
Before, she had embedded quite a few people in the Song Mansion, but now most of them had been cleared out. Even if a few could still serve her purposes, they were outsiders and ineffective.
She had lost control of the Song Mansion during Song Keren’s welcoming banquet, so now they needed to let Song Keren gain some favor from Old Master Song.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be as comfortable in the Song Mansion in the future.
Song Keren and Xiao Jinglan exchanged glances, and Song Keren placed a chicken wing on Old Master Song’s plate, “Grandpa, you should also have some vegetables, this chicken wing is really tasty.”
Old Master Song nodded but still didn’t show much interest in Song Keren, instead, he served another piece of chicken wing to Lu Zhaozhao, “Here, Zhaozhao, a chicken wing—it’s a favorite among you young folks.”
Lu Zhaozhao looked at her plate, now heaped with food, feeling somewhat overwhelmed.
But, given the warmth of the occasion, she could only nod, “Thank you, Grandpa, I’ll make sure to eat well.”
Lu Zhaozhao’s docile nature made Old Master Song even more pleased.
He turned to look at Lu Zhaozhao and casually mentioned, “We’ve got a new batch of fine red wine at home recently, Zhaozhao, would you like to try some?”
