One and Only: Doting CEO's Infinite Love

Chapter 478: Male Consort, Male Pet, or Lover

At this moment, Song Song also received a text message, a message from Xiao Jinghuai.[There is an urgent matter in Qing City that needs to be dealt with. I must rush back now, be good and wait for me to pick you up.]

Song Song looked at this message, not knowing whether to cry or laugh. It seemed like this man was always like this; maybe in his heart, anything was more important than her!

Clearly, he could have told her face to face, but he chose to send a text message.

In an instant, Song Song felt cold to the bone, without a trace of warmth...

Xiao Ran looked at the woman with red eyes and couldn’t help feeling a bit fearful. Was his behavior too straightforward today?

But he was never a man who understood romance; rather than pursuing with elaborate gestures, he preferred straightforwardness to reflect his style.

"...Song Song, don’t be like this. If you really don’t want to, just pretend nothing happened. I’ll leave now."

Xiao Ran spoke a bit dejectedly. After all, he was always full of spirit and had never encountered such a setback.

He hadn’t expected his first interest in someone to be met with such coldness.

Watching the man leave in disappointment, Song Song wanted to call out and offer comfort, but feared he might misunderstand—

So she didn’t do it, simply watching him leave quietly.

She squatted down slowly in sadness, deeply feeling the gap between her and Xiao Jinghuai was widening, now beyond crossing.

...

Actually, Xiao Jinghuai was suddenly called back to Qingcheng City for a very important matter, something he had never experienced before.

The old man called him over and silently tossed a stack of documents at him, saying, "Take a good look and see what you’ve been missing."

Xiao Jinghuai’s eyes deepened as he picked up the thick documents on the table, and was shocked the moment he looked at the first page.

Before, he had always thought this to be some unreliable legend, but unexpectedly...

Xiao Zhongzhen leaned on his cane, his expression serious, "The Huang Family should not need much introduction from me. Twenty-two years ago, the only heir to the Royal Family fled due to dissatisfaction with the existing family rules, disguising and living as an ordinary person."

Xiao Jinghuai knew that the legendary Royal Family once dominated the world through food, but as modern technology rapidly developed, this clan gradually became ethereal and baseless, even becoming a subject of folklore.

But judging from the data in his hands, it wasn’t legend but truly existed, and this clan remains flourishing to this day.

While browsing the documents, the heir absconded with a very important handwritten book, supposedly the Huang Family’s prized treasure.

The further Xiao Jinghuai read, the more he felt this clan was absurd, with every generation’s Family Head being female, and they must all establish three palaces and six courtyards, with numerous wives and concubines.

Three palaces and six courtyards, numerous wives and concubines? But luckily, there is only one main wife.

As a man, it’s easy to accept such a system, but thinking deeply, it feels incredibly annoying.

Because, the Family Heads of Huang Family have always been female.

That is, a woman possessing countless male companions, male lovers, or face heads—

"Bang," Xiao Jinghuai viciously threw the documents onto the table, "What kind of stuff is this! A modern-day Wu Zetian?"

"This is utterly ridiculous!"

Xiao Jinghuai didn’t even know why he was so furious, but he just couldn’t restrain it, "Grandfather, if you called me back just to show me these, I can clearly tell you, I don’t have time to mess around with you. I’m leaving, I have other things."

Thinking that the little one might be crying now, he wished he could fly to Hong Kong immediately.

Xiao Jinghuai had just lifted one foot out when the elderly man behind him scolded him again, "Jinghuai, I haven’t finished speaking yet, what are you in a hurry for!"

"If this matter is unrelated to you, do you think I would have called you back?"

Xiao Jinghuai paused immediately, understanding his style of work, every step is carefully considered, something he learned from childhood—

In the business world, as long as you think deeper than others, you naturally can go farther than the common folk, your business empire can expand endlessly.

His grandfather has always been calculating, in his eyes, only interests mattered, everything else was unimportant.

Xiao Jinghuai furrowed his brows and turned, "I don’t know anyone from the Royal Family, I don’t think this business has anything to do with me."

"Don’t know?" Xiao Zhongzhen laughed coldly, then picked up the documents from the tea table and threw them to Xiao Jinghuai, "Open your eyes and look carefully at who is on there!"

Xiao Jinghuai bent down to pick up the papers on the floor, his gaze fell calmly, and he saw a very familiar face—

It was Song Song’s mother, Song Xueqin.

Looking at these, Xiao Jinghuai felt it was unbelievable, "How is this possible?"

Xiao Zhongzhen snorted, "In this world, nothing is impossible, only things you haven’t thought of, and there are events that can happen. Previously, the Di Family’s Di Xing was in such a rush to find the taste of a dish; it was actually to locate this Song Xueqin."

"He feared she would be suspicious, hence using taste-finding as a smokescreen—"

At this moment, Xiao Jinghuai’s mind began to spin quickly. If Song Xueqin was the Royal Family’s runaway person, then wouldn’t Song Song be... the next heir.

Impossible.

These definitely are not true.

Just when Xiao Jinghuai found this matter inconceivable, Xiao Zhongzhen threw another bomb at him!

He handed over another set of detailed documents, "Look at this."

Xiao Jinghuai walked over, sat back on the sofa, eyes fixed as he took, "Song Xueqin really lives up to being a royal person, did so much, even leaving her biological daughter in her adversary’s care for her to grow up, just to let her live an ordinary life, without having to return to the Royal Family to inherit those things."

"Left her biological daughter to grow up with an adversary?" Xiao Jinghuai asked again.

Then his mind quickly reacted and looked eagerly at the documents in his hands...

Suddenly his mind buzzed, realizing Song Song was actually Qiao Yu, and Qiao Yu was the real Song Song.

Song Song is Helian Sulan’s daughter, and Qiao Yu is Song Xueqin’s daughter, also the next heir to the Royal Family.

Seeing this, Xiao Jinghuai instantly relaxed.

To him, no matter who she was, she was still her.

Whether it’s Song Song or Qiao Yu, it’s the same.

Since she isn’t Song Xueqin’s biological daughter, then she doesn’t need to return to the Royal Family—

If she were truly Song Xueqin’s daughter, she would have to return to the Royal Family and be surrounded by a group of men?

Ha! He absolutely won’t let that happen, don’t even dream about it!

Xiao Zhongzhen saw his calm demeanor, "What’s wrong, not surprised?"

"It’s indeed a bit shocking, but... it seems unrelated to me. As for Song Song not being Song Xueqin’s daughter, I’ll find time to tell her that in due course. She’s lost her memory, maybe she’ll accept this matter quickly, counted as a blessing in disguise."

Xiao Zhongzhen scolded angrily, "You better not ignore Qiao Yu’s true identity, the most important thing is, she likes you!"
