On Friday, with Lin Chengyu's meticulous arrangements, the Song family boarded a plane to New York.
Because there were no direct flights, they had to transfer once. When they arrived in New York, the Song family members were all listless, as if their energy had been drained.
This time, in particular, they also brought along their nearly one-year-old sons, Chengcheng and Xiaoyu, who are at the age where they are learning to speak.
When they first boarded the plane, they were excitedly shouting "Ahhh!"
When they got off the plane, the two babies were fast asleep in their parents' arms.
When Song Ziqing got off the plane, she felt that there was no problem holding Xiao Chengcheng, but after walking a few steps, she felt that she was not holding a baby, but a big rock, and the more she held him, the heavier he became.
"Oh my god, Yu, Dad, come help me! Little Chengcheng is too heavy, I can't carry him anymore!"
Exhausted, Song Ziqing hurriedly called for help.
Lin Chengyu reacted quickly and took Xiao Chengcheng from his wife's arms.
Thus, when Song Zhiwen's only daughter, Song Qiongyi, arrived with her son, Feng Yinghan, the first thing that caught their eye was the heartwarming scene of Lin Chengyu holding a baby in each of his arms.
Song Qiongyi walked up to Song Jingwei excitedly and greeted him, "Cousin, hello! We've finally met again!"
Song Qiongyi was surprised to find that her face, which was not yet forty years old, was not as good as Song Jingwei's, who was already in his forties.
Judging from his appearance alone, he has been doing quite well, even very well, over the years.
"Qiongyi, we've only been keeping in touch by phone lately. Seeing you again, you're still as beautiful as ever!"
Song Jingwei greeted her with a smile. You see, the last time he saw Song Qiongyi, she was just a teenage girl. They hadn't seen each other for over twenty years, and when they met again, everything had changed.
Song Jingwei not only noticed Song Qiongyi, but also the boy in his teens behind her. He pointed at him and asked, "Qiongyi, is this the eldest son you mentioned, Feng Yinghan? He's handsome and looks very energetic!"
"Yes, this is Yinghan. He heard early this morning that I was coming to pick you up, so he eagerly followed me, saying he wanted to get to know your son-in-law."
Feng Yinghan was not even eighteen years old when he was admitted to New York University. He also highly respected Lin Chengyu, who had founded the Songlin Group at a young age.
After all, Feng Yinghan also studied economics, and because of his family background, he has a very good eye for his profession.
In his view, Lin Chengyu has the potential to develop into a large conglomerate based on his current development trend.
He's already considering finding an opportunity to collaborate with Lin Chengyu after he graduates from university.
Song Jingwei then introduced his wife, daughter, son-in-law, grandchildren, and other relatives to Song Qiongyi.
When Song Qiongyi saw Xiao Chengcheng and Xiao Yu, who shared the Song family name, her eyes lit up with joy. "My God, these are twins! They're so adorable!"
Song Qiongyi lived in a family that favored sons over daughters, so she really thought highly of Lin Chengyu for letting his children take his wife's surname.
She had also heard Song Jingwei mention that the surname of his grandchildren was suggested by Lin Chengyu, and that the couple had never considered having their daughter's children take their surname, Song.
She also knew that Lin Chengyu had given his children the surname Song simply because he had a very bad relationship with his relatives with the surname Lin and didn't want his children to have too much contact with Lin's relatives.
After exchanging pleasantries, everyone arrived at the car. Lin Chengyu first placed Xiao Chengcheng in the child seat and secured him, then carefully picked up Xiao Yu and gently placed her on the other seat.
When Song Qiongyi was preparing the car, she also prepared a child seat, which Lin Chengyu was satisfied with.
He was a very loving father, especially towards his two children who inherited his genes.
Song Qiongyi praised, "Ayu, you are such a good and responsible father."
Then, she turned to Song Ziqing and said, "Ziqing, you are so lucky to have such a considerate husband."
"Yes, I have good taste. I picked the perfect person for me right away!" Song Ziqing smiled, her heart filled with happiness.
At this moment, Feng Yinghan interjected, "Brother-in-law, may I often ask you for advice on economics? I am very interested in this subject."
Lin Chengyu readily agreed, "Of course, you can contact me anytime you have any questions."
The group got into the car and drove towards the Song residence.
The two children slept soundly throughout the journey, while the adults chatted easily, looking forward to their future life together.
On Sunday, Song Zhiwen's birthday party was held as scheduled.
Song Ziqing presented Song Zhiwen with a meticulously crafted landscape painting. The painting depicted towering mountains and flowing water, conveying a profound artistic conception, which Song Zhiwen praised highly.
"Excellent! Excellent! Our Song family has produced a female painter! Well done, Ziqing! You must never give up your pursuit of art!"
At this moment, Lin Chengyu carefully presented the exquisitely carved Changhua jade seal to Song Zhiwen.
The patterns on the seal stone are so lifelike, as if they were alive. Every line is so smooth and natural, as if telling an ancient and mysterious story.
After receiving the seal stone, Song Zhiwen examined it carefully.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes; he was clearly very pleased with the gift.
He knew that the Song family had put a lot of thought into preparing this gift, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
During his time far from his homeland and wandering in a foreign land, Song Zhiwen's heart was filled with endless bitterness.
Due to various historical issues, the Song family has lost its foothold in China.
Even collateral relatives like Song Jingwei find it difficult to live a peaceful life in China, let alone their direct descendants.
Just as Song Zhiwen was deep in thought, Song Ziqing's gaze was drawn to several figures in the crowd.
It turned out that she had actually seen the legendary Song sisters at this family birthday celebration!
The eldest sister, Song Ailing, possessed an elegant demeanor, and every smile and gesture exuded a noble air. The second sister, Song Qingling, had a kind and gentle face that made people feel very close to her. As for the youngest sister, Song Meiling, she became the focus of the entire event with her stunning beauty, attracting countless eyes.
Song Qingling was able to come to the United States from mainland China this time because mainland China is actively seeking opportunities to establish diplomatic relations with the United States, which is why she was sent here on official business.
She took this opportunity to come to the Song family and reunite with her brothers and sisters.
After this gathering, everyone knew that the opportunity to meet again might be far off.
Looking at these three women from the Song family who had once enjoyed immense prestige during the Republic of China era, Song Ziqing was filled with mixed emotions.
