Zheng Qilin was tired from crying. He choked and said, “I am not stupid.”
Song Nuanyi frowned. So that was why he was crying.
Looking at the boy whose eyes and nose were red from crying, she sighed and said, “I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I was wrong to call you stupid. Can you forgive me?”
Zheng Qilin looked at her. After a long while, he nodded and said, “I forgive you, sister.”
When he said that he had forgiven her, he really did. He took out a tissue from his backpack and wiped his tears away. Then, he tried his best to stop crying. Gradually, he started to smile like before.
Song Nuanyi wanted to take away the steaming hot roasted sweet potato, but he stopped her. The sweet potato was no longer very hot, so it was not a problem for him to hold it.
“Don’t you want to eat it? Why don’t you eat it?” Song Nuanyi asked curiously.
Zheng Qilin shook his head. He did not say anything while he stubbornly held the roasted sweet potato.
Song Nuanyi sighed. It was not good for her to chase him away. In the current situation, she did not want to use him to get close to the Zheng family anymore. After all, she could not use a child with low intelligence to take revenge against the Cao family. If she did this, she would be no different from the Cao family in her previous life.
Anyway, this was not the only way to deal with the Cao family. She instructed the driver, “Let’s go to the Zheng family.”
“Yes, Miss,” The driver replied.
As the car drove on the road, Zheng Qilin kept peeping at Song Nuanyi. When she glanced at him, he lowered his head shyly.
Song Nuanyi asked, “Why do you keep looking at me?”
......
“I think sister looks very pretty,” Zheng Qilin said seriously.
Song Nuanyi chuckled. She had heard this sentence countless times since she was young. Some of it was sincere, while others were fake. However, none of it felt as genuine as this boy.
The car soon arrived near the Zheng residence. Song Nuanyi instructed, “Don’t go near. Stop at a corner.”
After the driver parked the car, Song Nuanyi opened the door for Zheng Qilin to get out. She instructed, “Go in by yourself. Remember to go straight home. Don’t go anywhere else, understand?”
Zheng Qilin said reluctantly, “Then will sister come to play with me in the future?”
Song Nuanyi could not bear to refuse, so she nodded and agreed. Zheng Qilin then waved at her happily and walked towards the Zheng residence. He was still holding the roasted sweet potato in his hand as if it was a treasure.
Song Nuanyi watched him from where she stood. When she saw that he was discovered by the Zheng family’s servants, she climbed back into the car and ordered, “Let’s go.”
The car slowly drove away. Song Nuanyi was thinking hard about how to deal with the Cao family. Her plan with the Zheng family was no longer viable.
The driver stopped the car and looked at Song Nuanyi, who had her eyes closed in the back seat. He called out softly, “Miss?”
Song Nuanyi opened her eyes. When she saw that she was home, she got out of the car. When the driver stopped the car, a group of people came to the door of the Song family residence. Some of them were reporters, and some were people from the bank.
When they saw Song Nuanyi, they surrounded her. The reporters’ microphones and cameras were shoved very close to her face. One o the reporters asked, “Miss Song, what are your thoughts regarding all the major investors withdrawing from the Song Empire Company?”
“Miss Song, what are you going to do Song Empire Company’s debts?”
“Miss Song, is Elder Song hiding because the company is trying to escape from this situation?”
Song Nuanyi was shocked by this situation, but she quickly recovered. She smiled politely and said, “The Song Empire Company will hold a press conference in three days. We welcome you all to come.”
