Chapter 1161: Absolutely Cold Blooded
Song Qi paused before she shook her head and continued mocking Song Ning. “Then again, since you ran away from home so many years ago and never spent a moment taking care of Dad, it is only natural for you to not care.”
The moment Song Qi finished her sentence, Song Ning’s face froze and she tightened her grip on her daughter’s left hand.
Huo Yao looked up at Song Qi. “As far as I remember, didn’t you drive my mother out of the family? Do you have Alzheimer’s or something?”
Song Qi was a very respectable woman. Huo Yao was a junior, but she had just spoken to Song Qi so disrespectfully. Song Qi instantly threw a temper. “That was absolutely rude. You have no place talking here.”
Song Ning said angrily, “Why not? I am right here. I am happy for her to represent me. Stop pretending as though we are real relatives.”
Song Ning did not care if they spoke rudely to her, but she was not going to let them get away with pushing her daughter around.
Song Qi instantly looked annoyed. “You…”
“Enough. We are family. She is just a child. You didn’t have to take it so seriously,” said Song Zhi interrupting Song Qi. He looked at Song Ning and continued. “Don’t be angry. She is just worried about our father’s health, so she tends to get a little emotional.”
Song Ning picked up the teacup and took a sip of its contents. “My daughter was right. You know best what happened back in the day. Stop trying to make me feel bad. I do not owe you anything.”
“Let’s not forget you are a Song,” said Song Qi as she laughed coldly.
“There are plenty of Songs in the world,” said Song Ning mildly. “Moreover, you have severed ties with me for over two decades. By saying this, it is as good as giving yourself a slap in the face.”
“How can you be so unreasonable?” said Song Qi as she veered her head. She could not stand the calmness on Song Ning’s face.
A few waiters came walking in, interrupting the tense atmosphere in the private room.

After sending the dishes in, they left quickly.
Song Zhi placed his hand on the glass rotating counter and turned it. He changed the subject. “Why don’t we start? We can chat while we eat.”
Song Ning did not start eating. She leaned into the chair and looked at Song Zhi and Song Qi without wasting any time. “You went through so much effort to make me come back. Why don’t you just tell me what you want?”
Song Ning knew her siblings all too well. If they did not need her, they would not have gotten in touch with her.
Song Qi did not feel like talking now. She simply glanced at Song Zhi.
Song Zhi put down his chopsticks. He went quiet for a couple of minutes before he said, “The doctor said there is still hope for our father.”
Song Ning tilted her head slightly. “And?”
Song Zhi looked at Huo Yao. “I heard your daughter is a physician.”
Song Ning instantly knew what he meant. She glanced at her daughter sitting beside her. No wonder Huo Yao suddenly showed up at the restaurant. The people from the Song family had probably tried talking to her already.
Song Ning composed herself and said mildly, “You are mistaken. She is just a student. How could she be a physician?”
“Not a physician?” Song Qi felt her older sister was absolutely heartless. “Even if you hate our father, you did not have to lie.”
If Huo Yao was not a physician, why would Fu Cheng have attempted to introduce her to them? She was a peerless doctor and friends with the chairman of the Apothecaries’ Association.
Did Song Ning really think they were clueless?
Song Ning did not know how Song Zhi and Song Qi came to know that her daughter was a physician. Judging from what the doctor told her at the hospital, it was going to take a miracle to save their father.
Even if her daughter was a physician, she did not want Huo Yao to get involved with the Song family. She did not care if her siblings called her heartless. Whatever it was, it had nothing to do with Huo Yao.
