Rebirth: Contract Husband Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 512 - 262: Taking the Initiative

"Can you take me back to your home? Even without a status, I just want to be by your side and be satisfied! I don’t want to be looked down upon, I don’t want that anymore..." The woman in red sobbed faintly, followed by the soft sigh of a man.

Madam Qin spat in disgust and whispered, "Such a wretch still dreams of entering someone’s household? It would be a miracle if she didn’t create chaos and turn everything upside down! This young master looks so proper, yet who knew he’d fall for this shameless and lowly woman, his parents must be heartbroken and furious at home!"

Liu Ya suddenly laughed, "Their accent sounds a bit like our Qingzhou people!"

Sang Wan suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked back, slightly bewildered. Though she had only glanced briefly before, she now recalled that the man bore a slight resemblance to Shi Fengju. Looking from a moderate distance, his stature also seemed similar.

Could this man actually be Shi Fengming who had traveled south? That woman called him "Second Master", and what did he call her again? Qing’er? A thought crossed Sang Wan’s mind.

"Miss, if you are tired, let’s head back!" Madam Qin said when she saw Sang Wan halt.

Sang Wan, now devoid of any interest in sightseeing, nodded in agreement, then said, "Madam Qin, those two are too rude. Send someone to follow them and see where they settle down!"

Since she had encountered them, Sang Wan had to find out whether it was true or not.

"Yes, Miss!" Madam Qin promptly agreed. Those two were indeed detestable, and it was no wonder even the normally gentle and kind Sang Wan got annoyed.

Back at the villa, Sang Wan called over the housekeeper and inquired about Shi Fengju’s whereabouts today? When will he return?

These days, Shi Fengju has been busy engaging with people at the Chamber of Commerce, and Sang Wan had never proactively inquired about it before, making the housekeeper slightly surprised, but he soon understood and thought it was not strange for her to be impatient. The young master’s family was wealthy, and he was handsome. Every year at this time, Hangzhou, a gathering place for beauties of Jiangnan, hosts many romantic stories. It was perfectly normal for the Miss to be worried.

The housekeeper answered truthfully, accompanying it with a smile, saying, "I don’t know."

It’s always better not to meddle in the Master’s personal matters!

However, Sang Wan was not willing to let it go and immediately said, "Then send someone to specifically find out and tell the young master that I have something important to speak with him about. If he is not too busy, ask him to come back earlier today!"

The housekeeper, left with no choice, complied and went.

Sang Wan initially thought that even if Shi Fengju came back early, it would be around dinner time. However, it wasn’t long before he returned, smiling and asking as he entered, "Miss Wan, you had something to find me for?"

Seeing his prompt return, Sang Wan felt a bit sorry and hurriedly stood up to greet him, smiling, "There was a small matter, actually it could wait till later. Did it interrupt your important work?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Shi Fengju smiled and shook his head, escorting her to sit down, "It’s rare that you look for me, so I’ve taken a half-day off!"

Seeing his expectant look, Sang Wan was about to speak but hesitated, worried that she might have guessed wrong.

"That, did your younger brother also travel south? Do you think it’s possible that he’s in Hangzhou as well?"

Shi Fengju’s eyes flickered, "It’s possible! The younger brother likes lively places; he might have come here. But he definitely knows I’m here!" That is to say, if he does not want to be found by him, he would most likely avoid him.

"The woman who was with him, does her name have the character Qing?" Sang Wan inquired further.

Shi Fengju frowned slightly upon hearing this, "Named Su Qing’er, not a decent woman at all. Miss Wan, why bring her up all of a sudden?"

With more assurance in her heart, Sang Wan then told him about what she saw today at the West Lake.

Shi Fengju’s face turned cold immediately, "Such inappropriate behavior from that woman, daring to approach you in broad daylight?"

Sang Wan felt warm inside seeing his concern, and softly smiled, "These encounters happen unexpectedly on the road. At that time, Madam Qin dealt with her, and I did not speak to her."

Shi Fengju’s expression then eased, "Madam Qin is steady and capable, she did not neglect her duty."

"I’ve already sent someone to secretly follow them, but I am not sure if he really is the Second Young Master. What do you think—"

Shi Fengju thought for a moment and then smiled, "Let’s wait for the person who followed them to return before discussing further! I’ll personally check it out then! If I can bring the younger brother back this time, it would also resolve a major issue."
