Chapter 148: Apology
Song Chongjin had finished giving reminders and afterward didn’t speak again. He only went up to sign his name and pressed his handprint when witnesses were asked to sign and seal the document.
Then he took his leave.
Apart from the Wang Family Father and Son, no one tried to keep him, after all, his status was awkward, especially to the Song Family Patriarch, who felt uncomfortable at the sight of Song Chongjin.
Song Chongjin naturally wouldn’t stay where he was unwelcome.
Wang Yongping, too, was impatient with all the old men; even if he wasn’t the sharpest, having followed his father around these past few days, he had overheard things.
He knew that these elders, despite their smiling faces and pleasant words, were only pleased because they had benefited from the situation.
He wanted to leave as well, but after being glared at by Wang Laozhu a few times, he reluctantly stayed a bit longer before finding the chance to slip out.
Hurrying as fast as he could, he still did not catch up with Song Chongjin but instead encountered his own sister.
The siblings returned home together, only to discover that the atmosphere in the courtyard was unusually tense.
As they entered the courtyard, the door of the main house opened, and the Jinhoo Brothers pushed Jinguan out.
Upon seeing Wang Yongzhu, Jindou and Jinhu immediately squeezed out smiles and greeted her respectfully, "Good day to you, Older Cousin!".
