Song Xuanli spoke eloquently, but when Song Xinya actually asked him for money, he was reluctant to give it to her.

"Xin Xin, it's not that I don't want to give you the money, it's just that business has been bad lately. Several of the Song family's projects have lost money. The current economic climate is not good, and business is difficult."

Song Xinya: "If you have no ability, just say you have no ability. Wherever you go, the environment becomes bad. What, are you an environmental destroyer, born to destroy the environment?"

Song Xuanli: "This year the overall economic situation is really bad, and it's especially hard to make money."

Song Xinya: "When has it ever been easy to make money? Looking back, there are so many opportunities to get rich, but looking ahead, everything seems dark. But if you look back ten years from now, it will still be the easiest time to make money."

"Strong people never complain about their circumstances. As for you, who loves to complain, I understand you; you are weak."

Song Xuanli was humiliated.

Li Cuirou makes her grand entrance: "Xin Xin, I personally cooked a few of your favorite dishes. Come home for dinner tonight."

Song Xinya: "I dare not eat the food you cook. What if you poison me with arsenic?"

Zhang Yingying: "Do you think everyone is as vicious as you?"

Song Xinya: "Do you think everyone is as vicious as you?"

The Song family's living room was completely silent.

In order to establish a cooperative relationship with the Qin family, Song Xuanli forcibly suppressed his anger: "Song Xinya, I'm not calling you to argue. Blood is thicker than water, we're always family. We haven't had a family reunion in a long time. Tonight, I sincerely invite you to bring Song Tingye home so we can all sit down and have a simple family meal together."

This is the beginning of their attempt to appeal to Song Xinya's emotions.

If Song Xinya had held a sliver of hope for Song Xuanli's fatherly love a year ago, she might have been moved by these words.

But she doesn't anymore.

A year ago, when Song Xinya discovered that she had gained weight because Li Cuirou and Zhang Yingying had replaced her vitamins with hormones, she was shocked, angry, and resentful.

Looking back, she was slender as a child, and the time when she started to gain weight was after Li Cuirou and Zhang Yingying came to the Song family.

She was fed hormones by Li Cuirou and Zhang Yingying for over ten years!

How can a person's heart be so wicked?

She was someone who didn't even have a mother, and she had already moved out of the Song family with her younger brother. What threat could she pose to them, but they still wouldn't let her go.

A year ago, Song Xinya discovered that she had gained weight because Li Cuirou and Zhang Yingying were feeding her hormones. She thought she had found evidence of their crimes, and she showed this evidence to Song Xuanli so that Song Xuanli would see the true colors of the mother and daughter.

As a result, Song Xuanli said to her, "So what if she was given a little hormone? No one died. Li Cuirou is helping me manage the company, and Zhang Yingying is helping me maintain clients. They have helped me so much. And you want me to kick them out of the Song family just because they were given a little hormone? You really don't care about me as their father at all. As a daughter, Song Xinya, you are too selfish."

At this moment, the last remaining affection and lingering thoughts Song Xinya had for Song Xuanli vanished completely.

Everyone says that parents are a safe haven. There are no superheroes in the world, and the one who will come to your rescue on a rainbow is your father.

Admittedly, many children in this world have a good father, but unfortunately, Song Xinya did not.

The first life lesson she learned was that her father didn't love her.

Are you sad?

How could I not be heartbroken?

Every time she saw other children who had loving mothers and fathers, she would stand in a dark corner, tears of envy streaming down her face.

She wanted her mother to live, her father to love her, and a complete family.

When she was young, whenever Song Xuanli looked at her with disdain and disgust, her heart felt as if it were being repeatedly cut by sharp blades in a blender.

Now, she understands it very clearly—

Song Xuanli only loved himself.

Faced with Song Xuanli's emotional appeal, Song Xinya remained unmoved, not being fooled in the slightest. She rationally and clearly negotiated with him: "If you want me to go back, you can tell me what benefits I can get first."

Song Xuanli: "You're asking me to come home for a meal, and I have to give you something in return?"

Song Xinya: "You're all talk about deep affection and loyalty, but in reality, you're calculating every move in your heart. You're all cunning foxes, so stop playing these ghost stories. I'm twenty-five years old now, not five. You want to use me to climb up the Qin family's big tree. Do you think I can't see through your intentions?"

Once his pretense was ripped off, Song Xuanli dropped the act and asked, "What do you want?"

Song Xinya did have something she wanted; otherwise, she wouldn't have wasted her breath arguing with them.

"Yating Education Technology Co., Ltd., founded by my mother."

Now, of all the companies in the Song family that can make money, only this one remains. The other companies that Song Xuanli founded have either gone bankrupt or are losing money. If it weren't for this company supporting him, Song Xuanli would have lost everything.

This company is like a goose that lays golden eggs, so Song Xuanli naturally wouldn't give it to Song Xinya.

Song Xuanli flatly refused: "Don't even dream about it. I'm not giving you this company!"

Song Xinya: "I'm hanging up. I have something to do. I won't be having dinner at the Song family's tonight."

Song Xuanli: "Don't hang up, don't hang up, this matter can be discussed."

Song Xinya: "I want shares in Yating Education Technology Company; everything else is off the table."

Song Xuanli gritted his teeth, as if a piece of his flesh had been ripped out: "No business deal can be finalized over the phone. Both parties need to be present to sign the contract. Come here, let's talk face-to-face."

After hanging up the phone, Song Xinya stood up, picked two hydrangeas, one pink and one blue, held them in her hands, and walked towards the living room.

She found a clear glass bottle, poured in nutrient solution, and put the pink and blue hydrangeas inside.

Holding a vase, Song Xinya knocked on the study door.

After receiving permission, she pushed open the door and went inside, placing the glass bottle containing hydrangeas on Qin Yuhe's desk.

The room, filled with cool black, white, and gray tones, becomes warm and romantic because of a bunch of pink and blue hydrangeas.

Qin Yuhe looked away from his laptop, glanced at the hydrangeas on the table, then looked up and stared at her face.

Just as Song Xinya was about to speak, Qin Yuhe said, "There's something I want to tell you."

Seeing his solemn expression, Song Xinya asked, "What is it?"

Qin Yuhe: "I stayed in Beijing for a week. There are some urgent matters in Shanghai that I need to deal with, so I will probably stay there for two or three days."

Song Xinya: "Are we leaving tomorrow?"

Qin Yuhe: "Let's set off now."

Song Xinya exclaimed in surprise, "So soon?"

Qin Yuhe stood up and picked up his suit jacket hanging to the side: "Business is always a dog-eat-dog world, and things change in an instant."

Song Xinya followed him out of the study: "I'll see you out."

Stepping out of the living room, Song Xinya saw a Rolls-Royce parked across the doorway.

The car is already running and we can leave immediately.

The assistant, holding documents and looking furious, rushed over: "Those bastards in the Shanghai circle stole our most important client while we were away! We were about to sign the contract, and now the client has suddenly backed out. All our hard work in Shanghai for almost two months is going to be for nothing! Damn it!"

Qin Yuhe remained calm: "Society is essentially a game of vying for resources. Everyone relies on their own abilities. If you can't grab them, you're a loser; if you can, you're a winner. Being able to poach customers is his skill, but whether I can win them back is my ability."

He bent down and got into the car, glancing at his assistant: "There's nothing to complain about."

The assistant truly admired President Qin's attitude and quickly got into the car.

Qin Yuhe looked out the car window at Song Xinya and said, "It's windy outside, let's go back inside."

Song Xinya wanted to tell him that she was going to the Song family, but she paused and thought that he was so busy, so she shouldn't distract him.

She smiled sweetly at him and waved, "Have a safe trip, I'll be waiting for you at home."

Home……

Upon hearing this word, Qin Yuhe's long, straight eyelashes blinked heavily.

The word "home" was also unfamiliar to him.

He looked at her, a gentle smile appearing on his handsome face: "I'll go home as soon as I'm done with my work."

"Our home."
