Song Fan didn’t intend to continue entangling this matter with Song Yi. She supported Song Kai and whispered, “Fourth Brother, I bought some medicine for reducing swelling. I’ll apply it for you, and it should be much better by early tomorrow morning.”
“That’s great!” Song Kai was deeply moved. He didn’t want to continue this stalemate. He quickly grabbed Song Fan’s hand and said, “Little Sister, it hurts. I don’t know if my arm is fractured. It hurts.”
Upon watching her twin brother’s clumsy acting, Song Fan silently sighed and followed him upstairs without turning her head.
Seeing the good relationship between the two siblings, Song Yi suddenly felt a bit emotional, and his gaze softened.
All his changes were noticed by Meng Yu. She gently grabbed his arm and said, “They had such a good relationship. As parents, we should have been happy. If we had let them handle the affairs of the Song Group in the past, you would have been much more at ease, and you wouldn’t have had to worry so much.”
Upon hearing that the Song Group might be handed over to others, Song Yi felt tense. Meng Yu knew that he was most worried about this. For a man like Song Yi, losing power was like a tiger losing its fangs. He would never have allowed such a thing to happen.
Meng Yu pretended not to notice his anger and continued, “The three older brothers have their careers, and the children of the Song family are all good. Now that Fan Fan is so capable, even if Song Kai joins the company in the future, it will be for her support.”
“Look at his appearance. Do you think he should join the Song Group? Do you
think I need such a blockhead to inherit the family business?” Irritated, Song Yi
shook off her hand. He disliked others meddling in the company’s affairs.
In the past, Meng Yu knew her boundaries, and he was willing to give her some authority. However, he never expected that Meng Yu would want Song Kai to enter the company!
Song Yi was well aware that there were many people in the company from the Yu family. If he hadn’t achieved results in recent years, he would have been ousted by these people long ago. He had always nurtured different interests in his sons to prevent them from entering the company and sharing the benefits.
If the children of Yu Wan entered the company, some of the people from the Yuan family would turn against him. With the emergence of the young master, no one would remember him, the chairman.
“You and Yu Wan have four children; there will surely be one who can inherit your business.” Meng Yu looked at his ever-changing expression and then spoke, “Regarding the cooperation between Fan Fan and Charlie, what do you think about letting Xiaoxia help out? The Gu family values Fan Fan a lot, and her relationship with Gu Chen is also good. We can’t afford to lose Charlie as our support.”
“Are you suggesting that we have Xiaoxia get close to Charlie?” Song Yi asked with a furrowed brow.
He had thought about this matter, but if Charlie and Song Fan could be together, he knew it would be better for the Song Group. It might even be more advantageous than allying with the Gu family. Besides, it seemed that Charlie was genuinely interested in Song Fan.
However, Meng Yu continued to gently persuade, “The business of the Song Group is still mostly domestic. We can’t just focus on the immediate gains. We don’t really understand the Brown Group, and besides, Charlie is the younger son. There must be an elder brother above him, and the competition within large families is fierce.”
“You can’t put all your eggs in one basket. Although Xiaoxia is not your biological daughter, she is still my niece. In the future, if she wants to live a good life, she can only rely on the Song family.” Meng Yu grabbed Song Yi’s arm again, a rare intimate gesture.
She continued, “She was originally an adopted daughter. If the Song family fell, she wouldn’t be anything. Even if she married into a wealthy family, she could only rely on the Song family as her backing.”
She used her eyes to signal and looked at the room upstairs where Song Fan was, “Fan Fan is a good child. She has received a good education abroad, has ideas, and is capable. Even if she didn’t come back, do you think she wouldn’t be able to live well with her abilities?”
Upon seeing Song Yi silent, Meng Yu stopped talking. She knew that he had accepted her words, and even thought more than she expected.
Song Yi was not only someone who didn’t like power slipping away but also someone who considered pros and cons.
Now, with two daughters, one of whom, although his biological daughter, he could never control, even having to compete with her in the Song Group. The other is his obedient adopted daughter, who can only rely on him. He knew exactly which one of them was easier to control.
After a minute, Song Yi sighed and then patted Meng Yu’s hand with relief. “Only you would think things through. Xiaoxia is a good child. I’ve watched her grow up, and she should come to the company to gain some experience..”
