Director Song reclined on the sofa, pinching the bridge of his nose as he said, "The commotion today, had I not considered our years of comradeship, I would have certainly given Feng Lin a good beating!"
Mrs. Qi did not respond, but she asked, "What are they doing there?"
"What else could they be doing? Apologizing to Li Bao, and expressing thanks as well," Director Song sighed and continued, "He was so bright-eyed and clear-headed when he was young, yet after meeting that woman Fang Su, both his heart and eyes were completely enchanted by her. Moreover, he has gotten increasingly muddle-headed with age!"
Mrs. Qi scoffed with a hint of sarcasm, "Are you sure he truly has feelings for that woman Fang Su? Are you sure it’s not just using Fang Su to look after his sons and daughters, not his sorrow for the children left by his previous wife?"
Director Song’s expression turned peculiar, "You didn’t use to say that."
"So, I had mistaken judgement before, didn’t I?" She truly felt awful for Fang Su, the second wife. Why didn’t she see him helping her up immediately? Instead, upon seeing his son Feng Xiao beaten half to death by Yanqing, he was frantic like an ant on a hot pan. Seeing how distressed he appeared made her doubt whether there was true love between the old fool and that idiot Fang Su.
Mrs. Qi’s expression was impatient, "How long do we have to wait?" Li Bao’s face was nearly drained of all blood, and she couldn’t feel at ease if they didn’t go check on her soon.
Director Song clearly understood what Mrs. Qi meant, and he shook his head, "How would I know? At least ten or twenty minutes, I guess."
On hearing this, Mrs. Qi did not further discuss the topic of Old Master Feng and his son heading to Kang Li’s home, her impatient look somewhat relaxed. However, she suddenly seemed to think of something and looked anxious, asking Director Song, "What about Xuan Xuan? Why haven’t I seen Xuan Xuan?"
"..."
After a brief stupor, Director Song responded, "When Yanqing carried Li Bao with Ruirui to leave, I think I saw Xuan Xuan following them out of the gate."
Mrs. Qi frowned, "What do you mean you think?"
Director Song replied, "No need to worry, you know that Xuan Xuan usually doesn’t venture out of the yard on his own, nor would he just follow anyone." Seeing Mrs. Qi’s eyes still betray a growing anxiety and unease, Director Song finally stood up, "Let’s go then. Weren’t you planning to check on Li Bao? I’ll accompany you there now."
"It sounds as if I’m the only one worried about Li Bao and Xuan Xuan."
Mrs. Qi tossed a remark to Director Song and rose from the sofa, not even waiting for Director Song, she stepped out of the living room first.
