Chapter 85 It's more like a test
Song Huailin couldn't understand, not because he felt Jiang Jingcheng was not worthy of his brother, but because he simply couldn't understand love.
Song Hongwei's explanation was simpler. He simply thought that Jiang Jingcheng was an ordinary girl. What was it about her that attracted his son to her?
Seeing his son talking about love on his mobile phone during the meeting, Song Hongwei felt really disappointed.
Song Huaijing was very calm. He put down his phone, looked at his father, and said in a somewhat awkward tone, "I don't understand. This is not my project. Why should I stay and participate?"
Song Hongwei's face was a little gloomy. There were some things he couldn't say directly. He was silent for a few seconds before he said stiffly: "I'm giving you a chance to learn!"
"Also, what do you mean it's not your project? Are you just going to take care of your own little piece of land and leave the rest to your big brother?"
"What else?" Song Huaijing asked back seriously.
In fact, Song Huaijing knew very well what his father was thinking. It was precisely because he knew what was in the other person's heart that Song Huaijing felt somewhat helpless.
Many things were already destined long before his mother married his father, long before he was born.
For example, Song Huailin has more shares than himself, and the person in charge of the company in the future will definitely be Song Huailin.
All of this had been discussed before Ms. Tan Ruolin married Song Hongwei.
He was able to enter the company because he had a good relationship with Song Huailin, or even a very good one. He had no intention of competing with Song Huailin.
That's why he was allowed into the company.
It's just that he was too "obedient" and Ms. Tan Ruolin was too honest, which made Song Hongwei feel somewhat indebted to both mother and son.
Song Huaijing was embarrassed to talk about his parents' relationship. After all, they were together willingly.
As for himself, to be honest, Song Huaijing didn't think there was anything unfair.
It's fine like this now. I don't know what has irritated my father to the point of making such a fuss.
Song Hongwei was so angry that he was speechless, and Song Huaijing had nothing to explain. In the end, the father and son had to put aside the matter between them and continue the meeting.
Another half hour later, the meeting finally ended.
The senior executives left one after another. Song Huaijing also stood up and prepared to leave. Song Hongwei said in a deep voice, "Wait a moment."
Song Huaijing could only stop, feeling somewhat helpless.
Soon, only the father and his son were left in the conference room. Song Huaijing thought his father was going to say something, but Song Hongwei asked, "What do you think about the betrothal gift from the Jiang family?"
Song Huaijing was stunned. He thought he was going to scold him, but why did he talk about the betrothal gift again?
After a brief silence of two seconds, Song Huaijing quickly came back to his senses and became a little more serious. "Let's see what the Jiang family is going to ask for."
Song Huaijing really doesn't have any idea at the moment and will just wait until the two families meet on Saturday.
But even if Song Huaijing didn't have any thoughts in his heart, he still had a bottom line.
Of course, it doesn't mean that he will give up on Jiang Jingcheng if he crosses that bottom line.
There is no way he would give up Jiang Jingcheng. It all depends on whether the Jiang family is interested. Even if they dare to ask for such a high price, it depends on whether they can afford it.
Song Hongwei still had a frown on his face. He did not hide his dissatisfaction with the Jiang family at all, and it was clearly shown on his face.
"The Jiang family is so greedy that no matter how much you give them now, they will not be satisfied," said Song Hongwei.
He had come into contact with the Jiang family before. He didn't know everything about them, but he could clearly see their petty nature.
In fact, he didn't necessarily want Song Huaijing to find someone of equal status. As long as the woman had a clean family background and wasn't the type who was unreasonable, Song Hongwei wouldn't be so disgusted.
The reason why he looked down on Jiang Jingcheng was mostly because of the Jiang family.
"Ha." Song Huaijing sneered, looking nonchalant, "You'll know when the time comes."
"Just make up your mind. Let me make it clear to you first. If the two companies have any business dealings, I will not let you do whatever you want." Song Hongwei warned Song Huaijing in advance.
"I know." Song Huaijing was not stupid and knew his limits. "Anything else?"
Song Hongwei looked at Song Huaijing and couldn't say anything else for a while.
Song Huaijing nodded, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
When Song Huaijing left the office, Song Hongwei still looked at his back with a look of disappointment, "You are getting more and more ridiculous."
Song Huailin looked at his father and said, "You'd better not do such things in the future."
"Who am I doing this for?" Song Hongwei looked unconvinced and didn't think it was his problem at all.
Song Huailin explained: "You underestimated Huaijing. Everyone in the company respects him, not only because he is the second son of the Song family, but also because he has real ability."
Song Hongwei was speechless. To be honest, he also recognized his son's abilities.
Song Huailin continued, "You are so anxious to let him know that he will always have a place in the company, but it seems more like you are testing whether he has any second thoughts."
"I didn't." Song Hongwei retorted immediately, looking at Song Huailin with a very serious expression.
"Of course I know you didn't, and Huai Jing also knows you didn't, but you care so much that it inevitably makes Huai Jing feel uncomfortable."
Many times, Song Huailin is like his father, not a very careful person. Maybe it is true that a bystander sees more clearly. Song Hongwei did not see this matter clearly, but Song Huailin saw it clearly.
After a long while, Song Hongwei sighed and said, "Sometimes I wonder if I am doing the right thing."
Before he married again, he was worried that Song Huailin would be treated unfairly and that he would whet his second wife's appetite, so he had already agreed on everything early on.
Thinking back on it now, I actually find it a bit hurtful. I don’t know why Ruolin agreed to it in the first place.
As for this matter, Song Huailin was a vested interest and he had no right to say anything.
Song Huailin left the conference room and returned to his office.
Sitting down at the desk, Song Huailin pinched his nose bridge a little tiredly. As he was pinching, he suddenly remembered something. Song Huailin turned his head to glance at the mobile phone on the desk.
After staring at the phone for a few seconds, Song Huailin took the phone and clicked on WeChat, only to find that there were many unread messages.
But when Song Huailin looked around and saw the familiar name, he found no unread messages.
