Because of its unique characteristics, the Song family had always lived on a mountainside on the outskirts of the imperial capital.
Although it was located in a remote area, the recent land development was good. It was connected to the subway and close to the western area of the Imperial Capital.
However, no matter how it had been developed, the Song family would always enjoy the most privileged position.
It was reported that the Song family mansion had been built in this area on the advice of a famous Feng Shui master.
The Song family was indeed extremely glorious, but everything had changed when Song Yanqing was born.
Now, Song Yanqing’s grandfather was in charge of the family corporation.
When old man Song was younger, he’d sired two sons. While the eldest brother was robust, the second son had been sickly ever since he was a child and spent years recuperating abroad.
The Song family had more female relatives, and other relatives of the Song family also gave birth to girls. Although the Song family didn’t favor sons over daughters, all the sons in the Song family had daughters.
This made them even more anxious.
Daughters would inevitably marry into another family, and their children would have to take the surname of the other family. It was impossible to recruit a son-in-law, and it was even more impossible to recruit one for each of them. Moreover, the daughters of the Song family were quite capable. Most of them were studying abroad or were career women.
Song Yanqing was born under such circumstances. As the only male of this generation, he had attracted much attention.
His father was the youngest son of the Song family.
However, like his second uncle, he was extremely sickly.
He was the lifeblood of the Song family. Even if his body was feeble, they would just use the best medical equipment and provide him the best medical treatment to keep Song Yanqing alive.
There were various rumors as to why he was so sickly.
