Chapter 77 - Close Siblings (1/2)

Song Ren was in the middle of a conference call when Yang Minzhe walked in, placing a note on her table and leaving without another word. Her secretary knew that he could not disrupt any corporate meetings unless it were an emergency. Song Ren glanced at the note while speaking to executives from overseas. It said in capital letters: SU GUIREN IS HERE.

Song Ren crumpled the piece of paper in her hand, as she maintained her composure while exchanging dialogue with the executives, attentively.

After the meeting was over, Song Ren exhaled deeply, rubbing her temples by her desk. After swivelling around her chair, she reluctantly decided to page Yang Minzhe to let Su Guiren in.

Su Guiren walked in with the arrogance and haughtiness of him.

”Hello, Dr. Song,” he said to her, mockingly.

Song Ren smiled grimly, ”I'm not a doctor yet,” she responded. ”Why are you here?”

”Hm, right. I came to check out Song Corporation,” he said as he gazed around the room with his arms crossed behind his back, observing every corner.

”Why?” Song Ren questioned, annoyed.

”I think I should buy it,” he said to her, with a cunning, wicked smile.

Song Ren's curled her fingers into fists. ”If you have come here to insult or threaten me, then it's best if you leave right now before I ruin your life,” she responded with an eery calmness, folding her arms together.

Su Guiren chuckled. He swiftly approached her, his expression changing from playfulness to sudden insincerity. ”I have not come to insult you,” he began, ”on the contrary, I came to make you an offer.”

Song Ren took a step back from him. ”Whatever you have to offer, I refuse,” she said bluntly.

”I will let Su Feng stay with the company if you marry me instead. I know you are the type of woman to marry anyone, so long it benefits you,” Su Guiren finished.

Song Ren spat at Su Guiren's foot. ”Now that was indeed an insult,” she began. ”I used to be that type of woman, but that's because I was too stubborn to realize the possibility of finding someone compatible for me. So do not offer me something so low to accept,” she said with a silverware smile.

Su Guiren looked as if he was boiling with rage. He then straightened his collar, coolly walking away without another word, slamming the door behind him.

Song Ren leaned against her desk, exhaling deeply. She was not sure how she going to get out of this situation, not while the Su's were after Su Feng, and her father would disapprove of their engagement.

Song Ren glanced at her engagement ring, the teardrop ring glimmering like sparkles, creating a rainbow against the peering sunlight from the window. She clutched her hand near her heart, hoping that she could be with Su Feng.

Qian Meigui had to meet with Su Feng privately, avoiding Song Ren and Song Rui; therefore, they settled to meet at Song Sheng's apartment.

Qian Meigui let Su Feng into the apartment where they went to the dining space to work on the legal proceedings he's planning against Su Corporation.
