She paused, trying to calm herself down. "Xue'er, listen to me. Before Yu Chuan becomes heartless towards you, seize the opportunity to have another child."
Since the miscarriage, the child has been a thorn in Song Ningxue's heart.
Even the word "pregnancy" is taboo in her eyes.
Zhou Min didn't want to upset her before, so even though she thought this way, she didn't say it out loud. But if she kept quiet, Song Ningxue would go further and further astray.
"Mom won't lie to you. For a family like the Qin family, having children is the most important thing."
"Have you forgotten how many good things the Qin family gave you when you were pregnant? After the child is born, everything in the Qin family will belong to your child."
Zhou Min patiently and earnestly advised him.
She tried her best to explain the reasons to Song Ningxue, but Song Ningxue didn't want to listen to a word.
They were even quite impatient.
She did meet Xu Lin abroad, but she didn't tell Zhou Min.
Although nothing happened between them, their past relationship was enough to make Song Ningxue feel guilty and dare not confront Qin Yuchuan.
Qin Yuchuan said he had photos of her meeting with Xu Lin that day.
It's just a photo.
She and Xu Lin had nothing between them, so she wasn't worried. She also knew very well that the photos Qin Yuchuan had couldn't prove anything.
What she feared was that Qin Yuchuan would investigate further and send someone to find out about her past relationship with Xu Lin.
Song Ningxue dared not gamble.
The phone on the table vibrated a few times, and then the screen lit up, showing the meeting address sent by Qin Yuchuan.
Song Ningxue smiled, put away her phone, stood up and looked down at Zhou Min, "Mom, just you wait, my breakup with Brother Chuan is only temporary."
She turned and left.
Zhou Min was so decisive that she didn't even have time to stop him.
Coffee shop.
Qin Yuchuan didn't wait more than a few minutes before Song Ningxue arrived.
As soon as she entered the room, Qin Yuchuan couldn't help but look at her. Her outfit today... had a strange feel that went against her usual temperament.
Song Ningxue has delicate, innocent features, making her appear fragile and lovable.
She usually dresses and makes simple, ethereal looks, but today she's wearing a houndstooth suit for the first time ever, and her long, straight hair is styled into mature, big waves.
Qin Yuchuan frowned. "Why are you dressed like this?"
Song Ningxue glanced down at herself, sat down opposite him, fiddled with the curls in her hair, and habitually smiled faintly, asking him, "Do I look good?"
"It doesn't suit you," he said calmly. "Don't wear it next time."
The smile froze on his face.
Song Ningxue gritted her teeth, but still managed a smile. "When I take over the company, I definitely can't dress the same way as before. My attire will have to be more professional."
Qin Yuchuan didn't respond. It was just a casual suggestion. As far as he was concerned, what Song Ningxue wore was none of his business now.
"Where's the contract?"
Song Ningxue took the contract out of her bag and handed it to him.
Two copies were made. Qin Yuchuan quickly went through them. The details were written very clearly, and there were no controversial parts.
He signed the contract without hesitation.
Song Ningxue couldn't hide her joy, looking at the contract as if it were a precious treasure.
She had mentioned it to Song Zhiren so many times and had been given the runaround. Now that she had obtained the shares so easily, it didn't feel real.
Qin Yuchuan glanced at her indifferently, stood up, and said, "I have other business to attend to at the company, so I'll be leaving now."
Song Ningxue suddenly woke up from her surprise.
"So urgent?"
Qin Yuchuan hummed in agreement. After signing the contract, the two were completely even, and he was too lazy to explain anything to her.
He looked completely distracted.
Song Ningxue was a little disappointed. "I was hoping to have a meal with you... I haven't eaten anything good since the surgery. I didn't expect that I wouldn't even have the chance to have a cup of coffee with you."
To be honest, Qin Yuchuan really fell for her act.
He closed his eyes briefly, and after a few seconds, turned to her and said, "I'm really busy today. When you have time, tell me what you want to eat, and I'll go with you."
Song Ningxue then smiled again, "I knew you were the best to me, Brother Chuan."
Qin Yuchuan's lips moved as if he wanted to explain something.
After thinking about it, he felt it wasn't necessary. He gave her a deep look, and was about to turn away when a surprised voice suddenly rang out—
"Mr. Qin?"
Following the sound, Qin Yuchuan saw a fair-skinned and youthful-looking boy.
Isn't this the child who brought Qin Guangsheng to the hospital?
"It's you! What are you doing here?"
"Oh, I'm on vacation, so I'm working part-time at this coffee shop." After explaining, he glanced at Song Ningxue, then looked back at Qin Yuchuan, his expression indescribably strange.
Qin Yuchuan noticed his hesitation and asked, "What's wrong?"
The boy was there to serve coffee, carrying a tray, and was originally standing between Qin Yuchuan and Song Ningxue.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she moved around to Qin Yuchuan's side, further away from Song Ningxue.
He asked in a low voice, "Do you know her?"
Qin Yuchuan wasn't stupid; he knew Song Ningxue had something to say. He took a few steps forward and stopped only when he was sure Song Ningxue couldn't hear their conversation.
What are you trying to say?
"That day I saw her arguing with Mr. Qin. He seemed to be having an attack at the time, clutching his chest and looking very uncomfortable, but she just left... I didn't expect you two to know each other."
The boy scratched his head in confusion and asked innocently, "Why didn't she take him to the hospital?"
Qin Yuchuan's face was extremely pale.
He suddenly remembered that at the operating room door, Lu Ziyang had asked him with a half-smile, whether he had investigated who was with Qin Guangsheng.
He didn't take it to heart at the time.
Unexpectedly, there was a hidden meaning in his words.
A chill crept in from the soles of his feet and spread throughout his body. Qin Yuchuan glanced at Song Ningxue, who, not understanding what was happening, noticed his gaze and looked up at him with a sweet smile.
Qin Yuchuan frowned deeply, making no attempt to hide his disgust.
Song Ningxue stared at him blankly.
What's wrong?
"I understand, thank you." Qin Yuchuan said calmly, took out a check, wrote down a number, and handed it to the boy. "This money is a thank-you fee. Go back and study hard, don't work anymore."
"No, no, no, I can't take it..."
Regardless of what he said, Qin Yuchuan stuffed the check into his palm without further ado.
Then he turned and left.
Once inside the car, he called Zheng Siyuan, "Go investigate the location where Qin Guangsheng fell ill a few days ago, ask if there are any surveillance cameras in the surrounding shops, and bring them to me for a look."
"Okay, Mr. Qin."
He closed his eyes, concealing the weariness within them, and leaned back in his chair, lost in thought.
After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and dialed another number.
At that time, Song Nuan was reviewing the submissions for the new project.
Seeing Qin Yuchuan's call, she thought it was something urgent, but when she answered, all she heard was him asking, "Have you eaten?"
Song Nuan: "?"
Their relationship doesn't seem close enough to warrant asking such a question.
He closed the file, put it aside, and took out the next one, flipping through it and checking it. In the midst of his repetitive and tedious work, he took a moment to respond to Qin Yuchuan's words.
"Just say what's on your mind, I'm very busy."
Qin Yuchuan was almost used to her indifference. "I'll pick you up and have a meal with me."
