Mr. Fang's Feisty Mistress

Zhang Liling was truly amazed that her mother was able to make the right guess and suddenly, she became curious about something.

She could recall that her mother was familiar with the Fang family and uptill date, she has still been unable to find the relationship she had with them in the past.

Being reminded of this fact Zhang Liling seized this chance to ask her mother about it.

"Mum, do you know the Fang family that well? What relationship did you have with them?" She asked with a questioning brow.

That question put a smile on Song Jujing's face as old memories started to play in her head.

"I know the Fang Family. I know Fang Huiqing, he was my first acquittance from his family. But since I had you, I have been very distant from a lot of people." Song Jujing replied with a glimmer of happiness in her eyes.

She seemed to be recalling happy memories.

Zhang Liling remembered that her mother had mentioned knowing Mr. Fang's father before and couldn't help but to become more interested in the topic.

"What was your relationship with him? Did you two go to the same Uni?" She asked thoughtfully.

At this question, a soft chuckle escaped from her mother's lift.

'Good, she is finally paying attention to me. But only because of the Fang Family.' She thought.

Song Jujing didn't know if to be happy or sad, but one thing she had already made up in her mind, was not to let her daughter get the answers to her question that easily.

With that thought, she said to her a moment later with a hint of pride in her tone.

"Liling, if you want to so badly know the full story, you have to behave for a few days, and then I will tell you everything next time."

The woman figured that she could use this opportunity to get Zhang Liling to be good to her and not avoid her calls, hence she chose this strategy.

Hearing her mother's condition to get the full gist of the story, Zhang Liling scoffed. Like she was the only source.

"There is no problem if you don't want to tell me now, I don't mind. I am going to meet Mr. Huiqing and the Fang Family today and when I see him, I will ask about your history with him."

As soon as these words finished leaving her mouth, Song Jujing's voice was heard, immediately bombarding her with questions.

"You are going to meet the Fang Family? Why? What are you going there for?"

A smirk played on Zhang Liling's lips as she blew on her nails. Finally, the tides had turned, and her mother was now the one being curious.

Hearing no response from the other end, Song Jujing got impatient and called out to her a little breathlessly. "Liling! Are you still there?"

"Of course I'm still here." Zhang Liling replied almost immediately. Then without waiting for her response, she continued.

"Today is Old Lady Fang's birthday and a big party is thrown to acknowledge her new age."

Saying up to this point, Zhang Liling sealed her lips, allowing her mother to out the pieces together and she didn't fail to do so.

Song Jujing understood that her daughter would be introduced to the Fang family by her boyfriend Fang Bingwen.

Although feeling her heart fluttering a bit, she appeared to be indifferent and tried to wave it off.

"Anyway, no matter how you ask, you can never get the full story from any of them you can only know a bit and not everything. Whenever you feel the need to know, you can always come back to me." Song Jujing said confidently.

She believed that Fang Huiqing would never tell her the full story unless since she didn't mention it to her first.

And knowing her daughter well, she was sure she would definitely come back.

Zhang Liling refused to back down even after sensing her mother's confidence. Whether or not she would come back to her, would be decided when she returns from the birthday celebration.

ZHANG MANSION...

There has been a few changes in the Zhang family since the past year.

Since taking a step into the political world, Zhang Renshu had gotten another title apart from the one he had because if Zhang Group.

Zhang Renshu was now being followed by escorts as his security guards has doubled, and outside the Zhang Villa, some one then could be seen standing guard outside, and a few of them patrolling in the environment.

Currently, it was breakfast time, and the now family of three were gathered and sitting around the dining table.

The sounds of steel cutlery striking against the ceramic plates resounded in the dining area which was followed by the movement of the mouths of the three adults sitting there.

Zhang Renshu and Shi Wenqian's faces were still the same, as no notable changes could be detected from them, apart from the aura the man exuded.

Going to Zhang Mingyu, the young man was the only one who had a little change within him. There was a slight change in his physical appearance.

His face seemed a bit mature now, and his sense of dressing had changed a bit, probably because of his career and public image.

Zhang Mingyu was putting on a well-ironed sky blue shirt. His hair was trimmed, and flowed to each sides because of the division at the center of his hairline.

In all, he looked neat and responsibile as his ate his breakfast in peace.

In the middle of eating, Shi Wenqian sent a spoon of porridge into her mouth before shifting her gaze to Zhang Renshu, whose mouth was equally busy.

"Today is Old Lady Fang's birthday celebration, are you going for it?" She asked with a calm demeanor, while trying not to appear interested.

Zhang Renshu clearly heard her, but refused to give a response. He continued to chew on his meat, making it hard to despict if the food in his mouth was the reason he wasn't responding, or because of another thing.

Regardless, Shi Wenqian did not take it to heart and instar continued speaking as if she was making a causal statement.

"Xiulan told me this morning that she would be attending the event with Tang Enlai. Apparently, Mr. Tang had sent his first son to represent him at the celebration."

p If this was a reminder or a suggestion from her that it would be great for his presence to be known, or not, no one could tell.

There was a small movement from Zhang Renshu's throat showing that he had swallowed the minced food in his mouth, before he turned his attention to her.

"I won't be going for the celebratory dinner. I have already sent out a birthday present yesterday evening." He revealed before turning back to continue eating.

"What!" Shi Wenqian exclaimed, causing Mingyu to glance at her before moving his eyes back to his food.

His mother still had a long way to go in covering up some little things.

Ignorant of his thoughts, she continued.

"How could you do something like this without informing me? I would have loved to send a gift over since it is a taboo for member of our family to step foot into the Fang residence."

Shi Wenqian was taunting Mr. Zhang for being petty and allowing them to be in contact with the Family, and he got that message well, but he chose to ignore it.

"Sending a gift from me is as good as sending the intentions of the entire family. Shi Wenqian, do not disturb my peace this morning." He said explaining in the first sentence, while also giving her a warning in the second one.

Shi Wenqian remained unsatisfied with his method. If she had known he would do something like this, she would have secretly sent out a gift to the old lady, in her own name.

'Maybe it's not too late is it?' she asked herself with a glint of annoyance flashing past her sight.
