“Yujin, none of the shares belonged to Pang Xiaohui and Song Peihan. They’re yours. Once you’ve grown up, you can decide what to do with them.”
“But they also belonged to you.”
“I’m not Kong Chuyun’s biological daughter.”
Song Ci wanted Song Yujin to have some funds for his future. Since he was still a child, there was no need to explain much.
“You’re the rightful owner. This also means that you’re rich.”
Song Ci laughed and patted Song Yujin’s head.
Song Yujin dodged her, feeling a little embarrassed. In all honesty, he wanted to give the shares to Song Ci.
“Will they really give us the shares?”
“Probably.”
Song He had spent a lot of money on Song Ci for his plan to work. If he stopped now, it would all be for naught.
Song Ci carried Song Yujin out of the bathroom and placed him on the bed. She caressed his face lovingly.
“Good night.”
Song Yujin nodded.
“Good night.”
Song Ci returned to her bedroom. She picked up her phone and was greeted with a ton of messages from Song He. However, she could not be bothered and ignored them.
A few days later, Song He and Pang Xiaohui quarreled over the shares!
When Song He told Pang Xiaohui that he was going to give Song Peihan’s shares to Song Ci, she exploded.
“I’ll never let that happen! You’re embarrassing her!”
Song He felt helpless.
“What else can we do? Lu Gan will cut ties with us!”
“That’s fine. We can just treat the money that you’ve lost as a failed investment. Besides, we can earn it back. On the other hand, the shares are priceless!”
“Lu Gan is crazy over Song Ci while she craves for my approval. If we give her some of the shares, Lu Gan’s heart will soften. Once we have access to the Lu Corporation, these shares won’t even be a big deal.”
“What if it still fails?”
Pang Xiaohui fiddled with the gold ring on her finger.
“Impossible! You’ve seen it yourself. Song Ci is so affectionate towards me. She’ll make sure that Lu Gan keeps his word.”
Pang Xiaohui shook her head vigorously.
“No! It’s still unfair for Peihan!”
“Do you know how long it’ll take for me to earn back all the money?”
Song He and Pang Xiaohui kept arguing for a long time.
…
Lu Gan received a call from Lu Hongyong.
“It’s Chinese New Year’s Eve tomorrow. Remember to bring Little Suo for a visit.
Lu Gan stayed silent. He looked at the dark skies outside. Finally, he said, “Alright.”
This was probably the last time he would spend Chinese New Year with his father. Lu Suo might never see his grandfather again.
Lu Gan did not care about himself, but he was sad for Lu Suo.
Anyway, Lu Hongyong was relieved. He had another chance to persuade Lu Suo into staying with him.
Song Ci was not surprised by Lu Gan’s decision. After all, Lu Hongyong was still his father. At the same time, she noticed that he was sad.
Chinese New Year was a time for families to get together. Lu Gan definitely missed his late brother.
“We’re only going to your father’s house at night. Why don’t we visit your brother during the day?”
Lu Gan had planned to visit Lu Heng’s grave tomorrow. Unexpectedly, Song Ci made that suggestion before he could tell her about his plans. He was happy.
“You want to come too?”
