Wang Rou was momentarily stunned by this revelation. Her immediate concern wasn’t about questioning Director Zhang but grabbing Song Fan’s hand and asking, “Are you hurt?”

Song Fan swiftly squatted down and reassured her, “I’m completely fine. Not a scratch on me. I ran away really fast when it happened.”

Wang Rou sighed and inquired, “Is that person really from the Gu Corporation?”

She still couldn’t believe it. After all, the two of them had been enjoying the company happily these days. She felt that he was a very refined person.

Song Fan, determined to protect her godmother from any potential deception, responded, “I’ve seen his face in official documents. He’s a major shareholder in the Gu Corporation. Plus, the Gu Corporation is in turmoil right now; they even instigated a shootout. We should do our best to stay away from them.”

Despite her limited knowledge of the outside world, Wang Rou hesitated to sever her friendship with this newfound companion. “We have nothing to do with the Gu Corporation. Perhaps he’s simply bored in the hospital and became friends with me, coming along to enjoy the flowers. Is that so bad?”

Song Fan was aware of her godmother’s loneliness and wished for her to have friends. However, Director Zhang couldn’t be the one. The Gu Corporation’s internal conflict had escalated and was on the verge of exploding. Song Fan didn’t know when Gu Chen and Gu Hai would come to blows.

She did not believe that Director Zhang would be in the mood to accompany others to admire the flowers. Two days ago, she accompanied Gu Chen to the banquet. They were probably targeting her.

If it weren’t for the critical stage of her godmother’s treatment, Song Fan would have already arranged for her to be transferred to a different hospital.

She earnestly reminded her, “Godmother, even though we may not have a direct connection to the Gu Corporation, my last name is still Song. I’m the eldest daughter of the Song Family, and I’ve attended their banquets before. Director Zhang is aware of this, which is likely why he approached you.”

Wang Rou wasn’t foolish; she just felt reluctant to let go of the companionship she had finally found. Hearing Song Fan mention her identity, she finally comprehended the situation and promptly assured her, “I won’t meet him again in the future. You don’t need to worry about this.”

Wang Rou had never wanted Song Fan to become embroiled in all this. She held no good impression of the Song Family from the beginning. Ever since she brought Song Fan home, she had harbored resentment toward the Song family. Leaving a child in the countryside without even caring about her was akin to murder in her eyes.

Seated on the ground, Song Fan leaned against Wang Rou’s lap and spoke soothingly, “Godmother, once you’re better, we’ll return to the village together. I’ll be with you to plant jasmine flowers, and these troubles won’t bother us anymore.”

Wang Rou gently disagreed, “No, that won’t do. You’re still young and shouldn’t stay in the village forever. You should go out to see the world, and pursue your dreams without concern for me. How have you been doing in school lately?” Song Fan swiftly dug out various trivial tales and embellished them to make Wang Rou chuckle. She was gratified to hear that Song Fan was doing well at school.

After spending half a day with her godmother, Song Fan took her leave. She carried the small bag of snacks lovingly prepared by her godmother, intending to savor them slowly.

As she headed toward the elevator, Director Zhang called out to Song Fan, “Miss Song, please wait. I have something to discuss with you.”

Song Fan, with a less-than-friendly expression, responded curtly, “I don’t believe I have anything to discuss with you.”

Director Zhang maintained a polite smile as he continued, “You can’t be so certain, Miss Song. After all, you’ve been getting close to Gu Chen lately. Could it be that something good is going to happen?”

This answer held immense importance for Director Zhang. If Gu Chen were to marry the eldest daughter of the Song family, the Gu Corporation’s fence-sitters would undoubtedly throw their support behind him.

Furthermore, the Song Family would join forces with Gu Chen to contend with Gu Hai. This was a situation Director Zhang wished to avoid.

Song Fan was impatient to be entangled with this crafty old man and resorted to sheer nonsense. She jokingly rubbed her stomach and chuckled, “Indeed, something good is happening.”

Her words and playful demeanor were rife with implications. Director Zhang couldn’t maintain his smile upon seeing her rubbing her stomach. A chilling suspicion crept into his mind.

Could it be that Song Fan was already pregnant?

Song Fan knew that Director Zhang had misunderstood, but she chose not to correct him. This misconception suited her agenda perfectly.

Song Fan had a knack for employing this tactic whenever confronted with baseless conjectures. Attempting to prove her innocence often proved futile. Those making the inquiries would rarely accept that she had no involvement in the matter and would persist in their pestering.

Therefore, Song Fan decided to continue along with their speculations and provide an even more outlandish response.
