Although Meng Xia asked Song Fan if she wanted to go for a drive, her expression and tone betrayed her, clearly indicating that she didn’t want Song Fan to join.
As the Gu family’s banquet had just ended, Gu Chen was being detained by several directors. Song Fan, not wanting to linger, decided to go back with Song Yi and the others.
She conveniently excused herself, saying, “No need. I’m a bit tired and will head back now. It’s almost midnight, and I feel the need for a beautiful sleep.” Without waiting for Meng Xia to say anything further, she walked toward Song Kai. However, Charlie grabbed her arm. “Miss Song, I just arrived in A City and will collaborate with your company in the future. How about we exchange contact information?”
Song Fan found it amusing; she had no involvement in the affairs of the company. Why would he need her contact information?
She awkwardly replied, “Although I’m the daughter of the Song family, I’m not involved in the company’s affairs at all. As you may have heard, I was sent to the countryside from a young age, and I’m afraid I can’t assist with your collaboration.”
This implied that she wasn’t interested in exchanging contact information with Charlie, clearly stating her position.
However, seizing the opportunity, Song Yi, who had just reached the entrance, didn’t want to miss the chance. He quickly handed over his business card, “Mr. Brown, my daughter doesn’t understand business matters. She’s still young and is currently teaching at a school. However, she’ll soon be joining the company since it’s a family business. Feel free to contact me in the meantime.”
Charlie took the card, seemingly surprised. “Miss Song is only 20 years old and already a teacher? It’s quite unexpected. You and Kevin Designer are good friends, it seems. It looks like you have considerable resources internationally. The Brown Group’s companies are spread worldwide. Even if I don’t collaborate with the Song Corporation, I can still work with Miss Song.”
He then took out his phone, “I know you all prefer WeChat; it’s quite convenient. How about we add each other on WeChat? Even if I don’t collaborate with the Song Corporation, I might collaborate with Miss Song.”
His words undoubtedly delivered a blow to Song Yi. He rejected a daughter with resources and capabilities in favor of a daughter who taught at a school. Charlie essentially indicated that if he could collaborate with Song Fan, he wouldn’t necessarily need to collaborate with the Song Corporation.
Song Yi’s face immediately darkened. In A City, no one dared to speak to him like this. However, considering the future expansion into the international market, Song Yi quickly laughed it off, “Mr. Brown, please forgive me. My daughter will be joining the company soon. Since it’s a family business, she’s undoubtedly going to manage the company as a member of the Song family. However, she’s currently occupied with exams at the school, so she can’t free up her hands.”
He lightly nudged Song Fan. “Fanfan, the Brown Group will undoubtedly collaborate with the Song Corporation in the future. Don’t be shy about it.
Exchanging contact information for future cooperation is quite normal.
Moreover, who knows, maybe we’ll become good friends in the future?”
Song Yi, an old hand in the business world, skillfully turned the situation around. He implied that Song Fan’s reluctance to share contact information earlier was due to her shyness, and he smoothly suggested a potential future collaboration.
Song Fan, thinking about Meng Yu’s likely intention to approach the company, felt slightly amused. Entering the Song Corporation was only a matter of time. She smiled and took out her phone, “Well then, let’s go with the flow.”
Meng Xia, on the side, clenched her fists. It seemed that wherever Song Fan appeared, she was always invisible, overlooked. Thinking that Song Yi was trying to ingratiate himself with Charlie, she quickly spoke up, “Charlie, I didn’t bring my phone. I’ll give you my number, and you can add me later?”
Charlie suddenly realized. “Oh my, I didn’t have your contact information all this time? I thought we were already friends. My apologies, Xiao Xia. You won’t blame me, will you?”
Meng Xia, despite saying “It’s okay” with a smile, felt an intense sense of disappointment. She had just entered high society and couldn’t afford to be kicked out so soon, especially since she was now considered “Miss Song.”
She initially wanted to go for a drive with Charlie, but Meng Yu intercepted her. “Xiao Xia, let’s go home together. Don’t disturb Charlie.”
Meng Yu pressed down on her hand with force. How could she capture a man’s heart if she was in such a hurry? Meng Xia probably guessed her intentions and could only repeatedly remind Charlie to contact her and not forget to add her on WeChat..
