383 Hurt His Self-Esteem

Song He said coldly, “No need.”

He headed upstairs. Suddenly, he thought of something and turned around.

“Stay at home tomorrow morning. I have something to announce.”

Pang Xiaohui’s heart skipped a beat.

“Honey, what is it?”

“You’ll find out soon.”

…

Song Ci had finished reading a few scrips.

‘They’re good, but the distance is too far…’

Song Ci was about to go and find Song Yujin when her phone rang.

‘Oh. It’s just my cheapskate father.’

Song Ci ignored the call.

Since Song He could not get through to Song Ci, he called Lu Gan instead.

Lu Gan and Song Ci looked at each other. She raised her chin and said, “Answer it.”

“Okay.”

Lu Gan picked up the call and Song He’s voice could immediately be heard.

“Where’s Song Ci? Why didn’t she answer my call? I miss her.”

“She dare not answer your call. What if Song Yujin’s father pops out again tomorrow?”

Song He cursed Pang Xiaohui in his heart. He wanted to get on Lu Gan’s good side as soon as possible.

“Lu Gan, I’ve already scolded Pang Xiaohui and taught her a lesson. She won’t be so stupid and careless in the future.”

“Really? I don’t believe you.”

Lu Gan continued sarcastically, “You’ve taught her a lot of lessons before, but nothing changed. Song Ci just kept suffering.”

Song He could not retaliate. Lu Gan was right. He had scolded the mother-daughter pair multiple times, but they never actually listened to him. Both of them treated him like a joke!

‘Did they think I’m easy to bully? I have more than one child!’

With that thought in mind, Song He was even more determined to teach Pang Xiaohui and Song Peihan an unforgettable lesson.

“Lu Gan, don’t worry. It’ll definitely be different this time. Come back with Song Ci tomorrow morning. I have something to tell you.”

“No. Uncle, please leave Song Ci alone. We can live our separate lives happily.”

Lu Gan refused without any hesitation.

Song He quickly said, “Lu Gan, just give me one chance. Bring Song Ci over tomorrow. I’ll give her the shares! My wife and daughter won’t object.”

“For real?”

Lu Gan was surprised.

“Of course. I’m a man of my word! I’ve even written down the transfer of ownership.”

Song He was worried that Lu Gan would cut the conversation short.

Lu Gan almost laughed out loud, but he held it in and sighed instead.

“If that’s the case, I’ll let Song Ci know. Uncle, I’m not trying to criticize you. However, as men, how can we let our wives and children step over our heads? We’re the heads of our families. Look at Song Ci. She’s very sensible and obedient, as a good wife should be. You’ve already been married twice. You don’t need me to tell you this, right?”

Upon hearing that, Song He’s expression soured. Song Ci was indeed obedient, just like her mother. How did things turn out so badly? Pang Xiaohui may be beautiful and smart, but she never carried out her duties as a wife. She even stabbed him in the back!

‘Was I deceived by Pang Xiaohui all these years?’

That thought made Song He feel angry and embarrassed. Even Lu Gan could see through the mess. Song He’s self-esteem was hurt.
