"I've seen Mr. Song trying so hard to repair his relationship with Anna these past few days, but after all this time, there's been no progress at all. It's really a pity."
Song Mengmeng gracefully put down her cutlery, slowly picked up a napkin to wipe her hands, but didn't stop her sarcasm towards Song Qirui: "Can't you think of doing this in a different way?!"
"Another way?!" Song Qirui was about to get angry, but then he thought about how this girl and Yao Anna had an unusually good relationship. If he were to deal with her now, Anna would probably make a scene on the spot without any politeness!
The banquet hasn't started yet, so he can't make any rash moves.
So, even though he was furious, he was still able to suppress his anger and patiently deal with her.
Of course, more importantly, he was also genuinely curious about what the girl hadn't said aloud. What would it have been like if it had been phrased differently? Wasn't the sincerity he was showing enough?
“Mr. Song, from the moment you met Anna until now, you’ve acted like a miserly tightwad!” Song Mengmeng stood up, spreading her hands with a hint of disdain and regret, and bluntly said sarcastically, “As you know, Anna and I have both spent a lot of time in the entertainment industry.”
Even the most obscure rich kid knows he can't just show up empty-handed if he wants to win a female celebrity's heart. You are, after all, the richest man in Hong Kong. And after all these days, your feelings for Anna have been limited to verbal expressions of your attention and affection.
But everyone knows that these days, empty promises are the least trustworthy thing! Isn't that right?!
After speaking, Song Mengmeng didn't look at the interesting expression on Song Qirui's face anymore. She turned around and left with the haughtiness and elegance of a victorious kitten.
Song Qirui wanted to flip the table and get angry on the spot, but then he thought about it and realized that Song Mengmeng's words made some sense. After all, upon careful consideration, it was true that since Yao Anna was brought back to the Song family, he had not given her any gifts or anything like that.
This was indeed his oversight!
Women are always different from men!
For them, nothing is as captivating as a set of jewelry or a gorgeous dress.
So, unusually, he didn't vent his anger. Instead, he calmed down and began to think about how to remedy the situation.
By noon, when Song Qirui saw Yao Anna again, he had shaken off the morning's setback and was full of fighting spirit again. He was just like an old father who was worried about his daughter, nagging her to eat more and take care of her health!
Even though Yao Anna didn't bother to pay him any attention from beginning to end, he didn't stop his loving chatter.
Finally, just as the little girl finished her meal and put down her chopsticks to get up and go back to her room, he had no choice but to put aside the words he hadn't yet uttered, call her back, and take out a card to hand to Yao Anna.
"Here's two million, a little pocket money. You've been cooped up at home since you came to Hong Kong, it's all because Dad didn't arrange things well! How about this, this afternoon I'll have your younger brother take you out for a stroll!"
If you see something you like, just buy it for fun; it's a good way to kill some time!
Song Qirui thought he had done a good job, but before Yao Anna could react, Song Mengmeng couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"What if the item you're eyeing costs more than two million?! I've heard that Hong Kong's richest man like you just hand out black cards to his daughters, right?!"
I never expected it to only cost two million here!
As soon as Song Mengmeng finished speaking, Yao Anna couldn't help but sneer, glancing disdainfully at the card on the table: "Heh, I'm at least a popular joke right now, two million is nothing to me! If you're short on cash, you should keep it for yourself, there's no need to take it out and annoy people like this, who do you think you are!"
After speaking, she ignored Song Qirui's expression and got up to take Song Mengmeng back to her room. As soon as they entered, the two girls couldn't help but burst into laughter and fell onto the bed. It wasn't for any other reason than that Song Qirui's expression just now was so interesting that it was hard to ignore.
"That's really embarrassing." Luo Yingyue, who rarely came down to the restaurant for lunch today, had a rare smile on her face.
She never expected that her impromptu trip down for some fresh air would lead to such a spectacle.
Naturally, she wasn't stingy either, and generously delivered a blow to Song Qirui's ego: "I don't like that girl, but she's still your own daughter!"
And it's your favorite woman who gave birth to your precious little princess! And this is your "welcome gift" as a father...
Tsk tsk, anyone who didn't know better would think our Song family was really going bankrupt!
Besides, that girl is now a minor celebrity. You could spend that little money to support a nobody, and they wouldn't even look at her. She's a top star now!
You...
"Tsk, didn't they even do any research before handing over the money?!"
Luo Yingyue strolled leisurely out of the restaurant, and without turning around, she heard a crashing sound of tableware shattering on the floor behind her...
After several setbacks, Song Qirui finally stopped trying to salvage his relationship with his daughter.
Because the day for the banquet has arrived!
The entire Song family mansion had been renovated inside and out. By evening, although the guests had not yet arrived, the house was already brightly lit inside and out, and all the staff involved in the banquet service were in place, just waiting for the guests to arrive.
