Chapter 275 Original Sin 84
But at this moment, recognition from a wise, experienced elderly man finally erased the persistent inferiority and shadow in Yun Shuangshuang’s heart! It also allowed Yun Shuangshuang to finally let go of her long-standing resentment about her own origins!
Song Chengdong watched Yun Shuangshuang’s expression shift from anger, to confusion, to clarity, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.
In his heart, a talented child like Yun Shuangshuang should not be shackled by her birth; she should not feel inferior or guilty over something that wasn’t her fault.
With everything laid bare, Song Chengdong unraveled a knot in her heart that had been bound for two lifetimes, making Yun Shuangshuang truly feel a sense of facing an elder! Yun Shuangshuang even hoped in her heart, how wonderful it would be to have such a grandfather or grandfather-in-law.
Now, Yun Shuangshuang could effortlessly call him Grandpa Song, naturally and intimately, completely without feeling awkward or embarrassed. As for her relation to Song Lian, at most they could be considered acquaintances. After all, she wasn’t doing something she hadn’t done before, like calling Professor Zhang "grandma," Zhao Ying "sister," and being called "sister" by Qiangqiang; there’s no blood connection, so she could afford to be informal.
It must be said that the initial awkwardness Yun Shuangshuang felt when calling Song Chengdong was entirely due to their unfamiliarity. Once she got to know him, she called him Grandpa Song with such warmth, and Song Chengdong responded just as pleasantly.
This time, Song Chengdong asked again if Yun Shuangshuang needed help, and Yun Shuangshuang straightforwardly said she did, really needed it!
That evening, Yun Shuangshuang treated Song Chengdong to a meal and introduced her mother, Feng Jinyan, to him. Feng Jinyan was also the head of a company, now managing a vast enterprise, Red Dust. Her social skills were exceptional, and Song Chengdong had a fondness for Yun Shuangshuang, so he had a favorable impression of Feng Jinyan by extension. By the end of the meal, Song Chengdong seemed to view Feng Jinyan as one of the younger generation.
Yun Shuangshuang specially arranged a separate courtyard for Song Chengdong, stating that it would henceforth be his exclusive space, no longer open to other guests! Song Chengdong gladly accepted and moved in, visibly pleased.
With Song Chengdong’s intervention, the matter that had troubled Yun Shuangshuang for who knows how long was resolved in just three days.
