Chapter 371 Acting
Song Song was briefly shocked, but quickly regained her composure, her fine eyelashes casting shadows over her eyes, "I... am trying hard to divorce him, but he won’t agree.""Mr. Di’s case has been on hold for so long, if it’s not resolved soon, it might really be in jeopardy. Yesterday, I heard Qiao Yu say..."
As he spoke, Xiao Zhongzhen looked at Qiao Yu beside him, indicating that it was more appropriate for her to continue speaking.
Qiao Yu quickly understood what he meant and said tactfully, "Song Song, I learned from my father that he seems confident in securing that cooperation deal. Once my father gets it, it belongs to the Qiao Family, and the Xiao Family will only get an empty basket in the water. I think you wouldn’t want Brother Jinghuai’s hard work to go to waste, would you?"
"So... you’d better hurry up."
Song Song heard this, frowned at Qiao Yu, her eyes carrying some suspicion, "I’ve never quite understood, one side is your father, the other side is your fiancé’s nephew. How can you unhesitatingly stand with the Xiao Family, are you willing to give up your father’s efforts?"
Qiao Yu didn’t expect Song Song to become so astute after losing her memory, and that her rebuttal would be so clear and organized, leaving Qiao Yu at a loss for how to respond...
Of course, the claim that her father was confident in securing Mr. Di’s cooperation deal was false, just to make Mr. Xiao resolve to push for their divorce.
If Xiao Jinghuai wasn’t confident in securing the deal, how could her father manage it so easily?
"I just..."
Qiao Yu stammered a bit. The source of thɪs content is NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Xiao Zhongzhen noticed Qiao Yu’s unease and supported her, "Song Song, Qiao Yu is very sensible in this regard. She knows that she’ll belong to the Xiao Family in the future, so naturally, she’s helping the Xiao Family now. As for her father, what she’s doing can’t be considered unfilial, after all, it’s fair competition between the two families, isn’t it?"
Song Song pretty much figured out that Mr. Xiao was determined to make her and Xiao Jinghuai divorce...
But they got married because of him!
It seems that the situation has changed.
"Grandpa Xiao, it was you who wanted us to get married back then, why now..."
Xiao Zhongzhen’s expression shifted slightly, "Song Song, don’t mind me telling you, my relationship with Jing Huai has always been strained. To reconcile with him, I let you two get married. As for the real reason, you’ll understand gradually."
"Oh, I understand."
Song Song smiled wryly, "I’ll find a way to make him divorce me, don’t worry."
"That’s good." Xiao Zhongzhen was relieved.
"Where are you headed now? We can give you a ride."
Song Song hesitated, "No need, I can get off just ahead, thank you, Grandpa Xiao."
"Alright—"
Once Song Song got off the car, she received a call from Xiao Jinghuai. She knew those two fools must have already informed him she had run away. She stared at the phone for a while and finally pressed decline.
As soon as she hung up, she received his text: Answer the phone!
Song Song pretended not to see it and squatted foolishly by the roadside for a while, her mind dizzy, as she dug out a business card from her bag.
With shaking hands, she dialed the number on her phone, after a while it connected, and the other person spoke with a slightly flippant tone, "I didn’t expect you to call so soon, didn’t you insist you didn’t want to involve yourself with me?"
Right now, Song Song wasn’t in the mood for verbal sparring, "Didn’t you say you owe me a favor? I’m here to collect on it."
"How do you want me to repay it?"
"...a show."
