Chapter 5:Song Sheng (2) (1/2)
Qian Meigui was no longer in the mood to celebrate, so she went to find Song Jinyi. Song Jinyi looked over at a balcony while resting on a marble pillar right behind the threshold. Qian Meigui approached and said, ”Sorry to interrupt.”
”No need to be sorry,” she responded quietly, her fingers fidgeting on the cupid's bow of her lips.
Qian Meigui felt that Jinyi was in deep thought, yet composed. She then asked her, ”How are you feeling?”
Song Jinyi sighed deeply. ”I'm upset at our brother,” she smiled grimly. ”but I am also worried about our sister.”
Qian Meigui asked, ”Why?” feeling puzzled.
”Because of what Sheng did. It now makes her the heir of father's pharmaceutical company. It's also a betrayal. Who knows what our parents will do now to her and Sheng now? Our family may break up the same way as father and uncle,” she said.
Qian Meigui thought momentarily. She would not allow their family to grow apart. She lost one, and she would not lose another.
”Isn't that good for her?” she asked. Qian Meigui knew the fate of Song Sheng, but she did not dare to dwell on it. She only hoped that Song Ren would prosper from this change.
Song Jinyi stared at the opened dark space turned to face her with narrowed eyes, ”Perhaps,” she said.
After a moment of silence, Jinyi asked, ”Do you know who the Su's are?”
Qian Meigui recalled who they were. They were the rivals of Song Corporation, and Song Ren hated their son, Su Feng. ”Yes,” Qian Meigui responded.
”Mhm. Well, the Su family is influential over the pharmaceutical industry. If Ren becomes the next Cheif Executive Officer, our family will propose for her to marry Su Feng, and their engagement will be official. The battle between companies will end.”
Qian Meigui was taken aback. Indeed. If Song Ren does not become CEO, she could marry whomever she wanted. But as a CEO, she needed to make a diligent choice in matrimony.
