Chapter 300: The Brown Family

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Upon hearing her sister’s words, Meng Xia thought that Song Fan was intentionally trying to provoke her. So she sarcastically remarked, “Sister, did you hear it correctly? Will he contact you as soon as you add him?”

She glanced at her phone and noticed that Charlie hadn’t added her as a friend, which made her even angrier. “Sister, even if you want to get to know Charlie, there’s no need to act in front of the whole family, right? It’s so late, and who knows…”

Meng Yu was also a bit anxious on the side. If Charlie took an interest in Song Fan, Meng Xia would have no chance at all. She knew that Song Fan, in terms of appearance, physique, and even her current sophistication surpassed Meng Xia. Especially seeing the uncertain expression on Song Yi’s face, she knew trouble was brewing.

“Fanfan, what does Charlie want with you? Maybe he wants to find Xiao Xia but couldn’t get her phone number. You can give Xiao Xia’s number to him.” Meng Yu walked over, seemingly casually grabbing Song Fan’s phone.

Song Fan didn’t want to get involved with Charlie, but she couldn’t ignore the clues on him. So, when Meng Yu took her phone, she didn’t resist.

Upon thinking she had succeeded, Meng Yu opened the phone’s speaker, saying, “Charlie? Is it Charlie?”

“Mrs. Song? Yes, I’m Charlie.” Charlie’s tone sounded somewhat surprised.

“Where’s Miss Song? Is she unable to take the call right now?”

Upon hearing Charlie’s somewhat awkward Mandarin, Meng Yu was taken aback. She couldn’t understand why Charlie, who had hardly spoken to Song Fan, would contact her first.

“Mrs. Song? Mrs. Song?” Charlie continued, “Sorry, did I disturb you so late?”

Under Song Yi’s scrutinizing gaze, Meng Yu returned the phone to Song Fan. Song Fan took the call and went upstairs; she didn’t want to witness the awkward acting any longer.

Meng Xia, feeling somewhat worried, followed Song Fan upstairs. However, she stopped in her tracks under Song Fan’s indifferent gaze. She glared at Song Fan, stomped her foot, and returned to her room with her phone. But Charlie had still not contacted her.

Meanwhile, Song Fan, tired and having seen the WeChat message from Gu Chen, decided she didn’t want to continue dealing with Charlie.

So, she said, “Mr. Brown, I apologize. It’s very late, and you may not have adjusted to the time difference yet, but I’m quite tired.”

The implied meaning was to end the call, but Charlie seemed not to understand. He continued, “How do you know I haven’t adjusted to the time difference? It’s currently daytime in my country, and I can’t sleep. I’d like to get to know A City better. Do you have time tomorrow? How about…”

“I’ll give your WeChat to Meng Xia. She’s available tomorrow and would love to tour A City with you. I have other matters to attend to. Goodbye.” Song Fan quickly ended the call and directly forwarded Charlie’s WeChat to Meng Xia.

Meng Xia, who had been somewhat anxious, was now puzzled. She had checked Charlie’s background. If she could climb up to him, it would be a significant achievement for the Meng family. Did Song Fan give her a fake WeChat?

But she had no way to contact Charlie at the moment. In a hurry, she quickly added him on WeChat. Surprisingly, Charlie accepted her request promptly and even sent a voice message, “Dear Miss Meng, I’m sorry. I’m not very good at using WeChat, so I just added you. I hope I didn’t disturb your rest.”

Upon hearing his voice, Meng Xia’s heart skipped a beat. She had finally added Charlie, and it seemed like he cared about her. She quickly immersed herself in a sweet conversation with him, even agreeing to his proposal to visit their home the next day.

Meanwhile, Song Fan and Gu Chen had started discussing who might be responsible for the poisoning.

“He knows about your poisoning, but it doesn’t prove he poisoned you. Maybe he knows who did. But what connection is there between the Gu family and the Brown family?” Song Fan expressed her doubts, not entirely suspecting Charlie. The poisoning of Gu Chen was too mysterious.

Gu Chen had already sent people to investigate, but finding evidence would take time. Upon hearing Song Fan mention the Brown family, he seemed to have some recollection. He said with uncertainty, “It seems like my mother mentioned the Brown family..”
