Old Madam Xia immediately reacted and shielded Xia Mengyan behind her like an old hen. She shouted, “Yes! Our Mengyan didn’t take the initiative to admit it. You were the one who said that Mr. Su was here to cook for Ah Cheng’s granddaughter. You can’t blame Mengyan!”

Song Shiyu looked innocent. “I was just keeping you in suspense. I said that person should call Old Master Xia ‘Grandpa.’ I didn’t say she’s his granddaughter. Doesn’t Old Master Xia have grandsons?”

His retort made Xia Cheng’s face darken. Old Madam Xia shouted unwillingly, “You’re spouting nonsense! Those little brats from the Yin family have never called Ah Cheng ‘Grandpa’ at all. Moreover, they’re from the Yin family while Mengyan is a descendant of the Xia family. You’re deliberately causing misunderstandings!”

Song Shiyu was not in a rush to retort. Everyone’s eyes were on him.

Just as Old Madam Xia thought that Song Shiyu had nothing to say, Song Shiyu suddenly smiled and said, “That’s not right! I remember that Old Master Xia only has two daughters and a son. If she’s his granddaughter, she should be Mr. Yin Yunyi’s daughter. However, I remember that Mr. Yin has no daughters!”

The moment that was said, Xia Cheng’s and Ai Sumei’s expressions froze. Xia Cheng only glared at him fiercely, but Ai Sumei’s expression was ferocious as if she wanted to eat someone.

However, Song Shiyu did not intend to let them off just like that. Instead, he continued to say with an innocent expression, “I’m really sorry. Maybe I remembered wrongly. It turns out that Miss Xia Mengyan is Mr. Yin Yunyi’s daughter! From Miss Xia’s temperament, I thought she was from the Xia branch family! If that’s the case, it’s understandable for Miss Xia to misunderstand.

“Since you’re Young Master Yin’s biological daughter, I’ll apologize. Please don’t take offense!”

Hearing Song Shiyu’s words, Ai Sumei gritted her teeth. This man was doing this on purpose!

At this moment, Xia Ji said with a livid expression, “Mr. Song, Mengyan is indeed my father’s granddaughter, but she’s not Yin Yunyi’s daughter. She’s my daughter!”

Song Shiyu asked in surprise, “Who are you?”

Xia Ji snorted and was about to retort when Song Shiyu spoke first, “I clearly remember that Old Master Xia only has Yin Yunyi as his son! Who are you? You can’t simply acknowledge others as your father!”

Qiao Xi almost couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Song Shiyu knew that Xia Ji was an illegitimate child, but he still pretended not to know anything and deliberately embarrassed the Xia family. As expected, the Xia family’s faces darkened. Ai Sumei hated it the most when others said that Xia Ji was an illegitimate child. Outsiders only knew about the three children Yin Lianxin gave birth to. They did not know that she had a child at all. They clearly did not take her seriously!

“Um, Mr. Song,” Yin Jinglin said slowly, “You probably don’t know that Xia Ji is also my grandfather’s son.”

Yin Jinglin had never called Xia Cheng ‘Grandpa’ before. Now, in order to cooperate with Song Shiyu, he finally did it.

Then, he said in a teasing tone, “Although Xia Ji is just an illegitimate child, he’s still of the old man’s bloodline.”

He specially emphasized the words ‘illegitimate child.’ These words were like a slap to the Xia family.

Song Shiyu nodded thoughtfully and sighed loudly. “So, you’re an illegitimate child! If you’re an illegitimate child, you should keep a low profile. Miss Xia is to blame for this. Old Master Xia only has Yin Jinglin and Yin Jingting as his grandsons, while she’s just the daughter of an illegitimate child. In the past, the two of you wouldn’t even have the right to be listed in the family register. Why are you trying to get close to the two legitimate young masters? How could Mr. Su cook for you?”

Then, Song Shiyu turned to look at Su Dongjun with lingering fear. “Mr. Su, it’s a good thing you’re not here to cook for Miss Xia Mengyan. If you found out later that she’s the daughter of an illegitimate child, you’d probably leave right away!”

Su Dongjun nodded, his eyes filled with disdain.

Song Shiyu sized up the Xia family and smiled slyly. “Don’t mind me! I’m a straightforward person who speaks casually. Don’t be angry! You won’t be so petty, right?”

Qiao Xi looked at the anger in the Xia family’s eyes as if they wanted to burn Song Shiyu to ashes.

Song Shiyu was really a smart person. With just a few words, he made the Xia family feel ashamed!
