Chapter 86 of Dan Detective: The Mysterious Poster's Ten-Thousand-Word Update Seeks Monthly Tickets

  Song Paiyu and Song Yuqing only stayed in the backyard for a short while before returning to the banquet, after all, their family members were eating, and the two of them leaving the table for too long would not be good.

  Song Paiyu returned to the banquet and first had a drink with his grandfather, saying some congratulatory words for his birthday, then holding his wine glass walked towards Li Yi's table.

  Seeing Song Paiyu's actions, everyone at the table except for Song Yuqing was full of questions. After all, Song Paiyu is introverted and doesn't like to interact with strangers, yet he took the initiative to toast a stranger, which naturally made his family members feel strange.

  Zhou and his wife felt uncomfortable seeing this, because Song Fayu had not greeted them since the banquet started. Even when their eyes occasionally met, he would just smile politely and quickly look away. Now, watching him walk towards a table of strangers with a wine glass in hand, they subconsciously thought that Song Fayu was intentionally putting on a show for them to see.

  Although Song Taiyu was reserved in front of Zhou Fuyu and his wife, the respect shown in his words and deeds couldn't be hidden, making Zhou Fuyu and his wife somewhat satisfied with him. Despite Zhou Yanran's request for a divorce, Zhou Fuyu and his wife strongly disagreed, thinking that Song Taiyu was just a bit soft in character but didn't have any of the bad habits of those spoiled rich kids.

  Although Zhou Fu and his wife had expected to feel embarrassed attending Song Lao Ye Zi's banquet yesterday, they hadn't expected the first person to give them a cold shoulder wouldn't be Song Lao Ye Zi or Song Xiao Liang and his wife, but rather Song Pai Yu, who had always shown them the most respect.

  Mr. and Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but sigh, it seemed that their daughter had really hurt Song Paiyu too deeply. Although they were not satisfied in their hearts, they did not have any dissatisfaction with Song Paiyu, but instead secretly blamed themselves for their daughter's mistakes. Moreover, Mr. and Mrs. Zhou also dared not express any dissatisfaction, after all, this matter was not justified by the Zhou family, and Old Man Song was now the biggest protective umbrella of the Zhou family. As long as the Song family did not clearly indicate that they wanted to abandon the Zhou family, the Zhou family had to rely on the Song family.

  It wasn't long before Mr. and Mrs. Zhou's eyes widened in surprise, because when Song Payu left, he was alone, but when he came back, he had turned into two people. And one of them was none other than Li Yi, a well-known philanthropist and authority on traditional Chinese medicine who often appeared on various screens. Mr. and Mrs. Zhou were well aware that the dozens of distinguished guests who suddenly appeared at the Song's house today were all led by Li Yi.

  "Grandpa, let me introduce you. This is Li Yi, the descendant of my master." Song Paiyu briefly explained his relationship with Li Yi, and earlier he had gone to toast Li Yi, whispering a few words in his ear, unifying their story to avoid being exposed by their family members at the time.

  Coughing, after hearing Song Paiyu's introduction, Old Man Song was choked by the small mouthful of wine he had just drunk. He almost coughed out tears.

  "Hello, Mr. Song. To be strict, Pa Yu is my uncle, but he insisted on not addressing each other by seniority, so I just call him brother. The other day in Jinyang, Pa Yu mentioned your birthday, so today I came to pay a visit, please forgive me for the disturbance. Also, earlier Pa Yu didn't say anything, and I don't know what he's thinking, so I didn't dare to acknowledge you, please understand."

  Li Yi listened to Song Paiyu's introduction and bowed respectfully to Old Man Song before explaining in detail. His words were full of respect for Song Paiyu.

  Li Chenmu has always had a fantasy about returning to the secular world from the Xiu Zhen realm, and Li's family was once again favored by a certain Xiu Zhen sect. This can continue the prosperity of the Li family for generations, so when teaching the children of the Li family, he strictly followed the Jianghu rules passed down by his ancestors, and Li Yi, as a young generation object of key cultivation, naturally spoke and acted in accordance with the rules.

  If Song Paiyu's introduction still left the people at the wine table bewildered, then Li Yi's words suddenly enlightened them. They finally understood why Li Yi was so respectful to Song Paiyu and also understood why Li Yi led such a large group of people to attend Song Lao's birthday banquet, it turned out that they were here to give face to this uncle Song Paiyu.

  With this, everyone's eyes at the table focused on Song Paiyu simultaneously. Before Song Paiyu pulled Li Yi over to introduce him, no one could have imagined that this seemingly delicate and refined young man actually had such a mysterious and noble identity.

  Although there are many business families or red families at home, and each has its own strengths, compared to the Li family, those families are nothing. It's worth knowing that the Li family has a history of hundreds of years, and they don't know how many dynasties have changed, the Li family's power is all over the country, and the domestic forces are just the tip of the iceberg.

  What a ridiculous thing it is that Li Yi, the heir of such a prestigious family, respectfully addresses Song Paiyu as Uncle Ancestor. But thinking about the various mysterious rumors of the Li family, people feel that it's only natural for the Li family to do such things, and can only secretly sigh that Song Paiyu has stumbled upon incredibly good luck, and actually managed to get connected with the Li family.

  Seeing his family members looking at him with disbelieving eyes, Song Paiyu couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart. Fortunately, he had anticipated this situation and had come up with an old Chinese doctor beforehand.

  Mr. and Mrs. Zhou are now filled with regret, if they hadn't let their daughter do as she pleased all along. How could their daughter have possibly broken off the engagement with Song Xiangyu? If Song Xiangyu were their son-in-law, would the Zhous still need to live in fear every day?

  Zhou Fuyu subconsciously recalled the scene of himself following the provincial discipline inspection team to punish Feng Dekun in Jinyang City. At that time, Song Paiyu dared to question and confront a small county-level city mayor, where was there any sign of weakness? It's ridiculous that he didn't react at the time and even tried to do ideological work on Song Paiyu that evening, hoping for him to make achievements in his official career.

  Looking at Song Paiyu sitting there with a confident face, Zhou Fuyu felt bitter in his heart and watched as such a good son-in-law slipped away from him, and he didn't even make half an effort to retain him. Who could be blamed for this?

  It wasn't until Li Yi returned to his own table that the people at Song's table came back to their senses. Song Jingru glared at Song Paiyu, wanting to scold him loudly, but her mouth moved without making a sound. The sudden change in Song Paiyu's status left her feeling stunned and speechless.

  "Grandfather, why are you all looking at me with this gaze? My master is my master, I am myself, and I don't have any thoughts of relying on the Li family. So let's just pretend nothing happened, and the relationship between the Li and Song families will be as usual... Let's just drop it." Song Puyu spoke up in a timely manner, noticing the subtle change in attitude among the people at the wine table.

  "Good, good, good!" Old Master Song was taken aback by the words and stared blankly at Song Paiyu for a moment before loudly shouting three "goods". "You're indeed a son of the Song family! Paiyu, Grandfather is proud of you!"

  The old man's emotions got a bit out of control towards the end, and his eyes also became moist.

  Song Xiaolian and his wife looked at Song Paiyu with a serious expression, but then their faces were filled with relieved smiles. They genuinely felt proud of Song Paiyu, thinking that their son had such abilities, so did they still need to worry about him in the future?

  Everyone at the table was delighted except for Zhou Fuyou and his wife. They also had smiles on their faces, but those smiles seemed a bit forced.

  The banquet ended in a joyful and lively atmosphere, it can be said that this is the most satisfactory birthday banquet for Old Man Song in several years. The old man lost control of his emotions several times at the dinner table, allowing family members to rarely see the true nature of the old man.

  "No, this is impossible! How can Song Paiyu be so formidable!" A young man in the Zhou family villa shouted from the bottom of his heart. On his computer desktop, a video was playing, and that video was the scene where Song Paiyu defeated Gao Lintian.

  This young Zhou Ran was the one who had been beaten by Song Paiyu in Jinyang City and lost several teeth. After being taken in by Song Paiyu, Zhou Ran had always held a grudge in his heart, wanting to return the humiliation inflicted on him by Song Paiyu a thousand times over. However, after being defeated cleanly by Song Paiyu, Zhou Ran clearly recognized one fact: that his actual strength was far inferior to Song Paiyu's, and he could only rely on someone else's hands to take down Song Paiyu.

  Although Zhou Ran was born to Zhou Fuyou, he had a twisted personality because he lost his biological mother at a young age. Zhou Ran resented Zhou Fuyou, thinking that she had abandoned and killed his own mother, and even more so resented Zhou Yanran and her daughter, believing they had taken everything that belonged to him. So despite Ai Yun taking care of Zhou Ran meticulously, he never showed any gratitude.

  Due to this twisted hatred mentality, Zhou Ran not only stirred up trouble everywhere but also constantly bullied Zhou Yanran and her mother. It wasn't until his family cut off his financial resources that he was forced to stop targeting Zhou Yanran and her mother, but the hatred in his heart for them never disappeared.

  After returning from Jinyang City, Zhou Ran nursed his wounds while thinking of a way to deal with Song Xiangyu. After racking his brains, Zhou Ran came up with a sinister plot that would kill three birds with one stone.

  Zhou Ran was very clear about Zhou Yanran's contradictory psychology towards Song Paiyu. After returning from Jin Yang, he had been constantly hinting to Zhou Yanran that Song Paiyu would immediately marry her after returning to the capital. Although Zhou Yanran remained calm on the surface when she heard Zhou Ran's exaggerated words, she was actually anxious in her heart.

  He keenly sensed Zhou Yanran's reaction. Zhou Ran knew that his plan had succeeded by more than half, and he immediately began to set up surveillance on Zhou Yanran's mobile phone and home landline, arriving one step ahead at Jindu Leisure Bar, where he took photos of Zhou Yanran and Song Payu's encounter on West Street, while the explosive post that suddenly appeared online yesterday was precisely a plot carefully crafted by Zhou Ran.

  When Zhou Ran heard Zhou Yanran's desperate scream because of a post, he had an unspeakable pleasure in his heart, and immediately began to make arrangements for the next step, installing surveillance facilities outside Song's house and on Zhou Fucai and his wife.

  Because Zhou Ran clearly knew that his post would definitely trigger a conflict between the Huang family and the Song family, and with Huang Xuepeng's arrogant and overbearing personality, he would absolutely make trouble at Old Man Song's birthday banquet.

  But little did he know, things took a turn that completely exceeded his expectations. First, the old Mr. Song, who had been bedridden with illness for a long time, suddenly recovered and gave him a big fright. Then, the group of unfamiliar noble guests who appeared at Mr. Song's birthday banquet made Zhou Ran's heart cool down by half.

  Seeing Huang Xuepeng and others leaving the banquet scene halfway, Zhou Ran was so angry that he smashed the table, but when he saw Song Paiyu following Huang Xuepeng and others out of the Song family's courtyard, a new fire was lit in his heart.

  But what happened next made Zhou Ran numb, Song Paiyu defeated Gao Lin with one move, and behind him was the Li family's powerful backing.

  After watching all the videos, Zhou Ran thoroughly understood one thing: Song Paiyu was absolutely not someone he could handle. In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies were futile and useless.

  "It's you, the one who posted that was actually you, and the one who followed me yesterday was also you!" Just as Zhou Ran sat in front of the computer with a dejected expression, a sharp voice suddenly sounded from behind him. Turning his head, he saw Zhou Yanran standing behind him, her face pale, staring at the video playing repeatedly on the computer screen.

  "Yes, I did all of this. You cheap woman, it was me who intentionally induced you to break off the engagement with Song Payu, and it was also me who secretly took pictures of everything that happened on West Street and edited and uploaded them."

  Two pre-recorded videos were repeatedly playing on Zhou Ran's computer, and his face was filled with a desolate smile. He laughed loudly while revealing all of his schemes, thoroughly venting the emotions he had suppressed for so long.

  "You're a cheap woman. I actually knew your thoughts about Song Pai Yu long ago. On one hand, you want Song Pai Yu to become stronger, but on the other hand, you selfishly think that the current Song Pai Yu is not good enough for you and marrying him would be a restraint for you. But look at Song Pai Yu now, he's so powerful, it's terrifying. And take a look at Zhou Fu You and his wife's expressions at the banquet, I reckon they've been cursing you to death in their hearts."

  "Foolish woman, selfish woman, arrogant woman, now that Song Xiangyu has become confident and strong, will you still kneel down to beg him to marry you? But it's all too late, you'll never understand what a man's pride is, haha."

  Zhou Ran was now completely crazy, scolding Zhou Yanran fiercely and venting the grievances and hatred that had been suppressed in his heart for many years.

  Zhou Ran didn't notice the flash of murderous intent in Zhou Yanran's eyes, but on his computer desk was a sharp fruit knife.

  Too many names, I won't list them one by one. Everyone's firepower was fierce today, and Jing Ye is deeply moved. Please continue to vote for Jing Ye with your monthly tickets, thank you!
