Chapter 186: Gone Rogue



Chapter 186

Song Lecheng: "!"

This girl\'s words were really hurtful!

But since he needed their help, he could only continue to act pitifully. "Of course not! I will only provide help to you, like I did tonight! So... could you occasionally find an opportunity to speak well of Second Brother in front of your brother?"

Song Shuling asked, "If you want to improve your relationship with him, why don\'t you go directly to him?"

Song Lecheng became anxious. "How could I dare?"

That\'s why he resorted to this roundabout tactic!

Song Shuling glanced at him, finding his expression not fake, but she still didn\'t relent. Instead, she said seriously, "Second Brother, time reveals true intentions. Whether you have sincerely changed will be proven with time. Regardless, thank you for tonight. When this project succeeds, I\'ll treat you to a meal."

After saying that, she beckoned to the secretary and bodyguard standing nearby, turned around, and started to leave. After taking two steps, she turned back again. "By the way, in a few days, there will be a family banquet. My brother will bring his girlfriend back to the ancestral home for dinner. If you really want to improve your relationship, you can show your good side then."

Song Lecheng was startled. "Girlfriend? Song JinXing has a girlfriend? Who is it?"

Song Shuling said, "You\'ll find out then."

Song Lecheng quickly said, "Got it, I will definitely treat my younger sister well when the time comes!"

It seemed that the roundabout tactic was indeed effective. Xiaoling was signaling her goodwill towards him, right? As long as he continued to perform well, just as she said, time would prove everything. His sincere change for the better would surely be seen by them!

Song Lecheng felt that his tactic had succeeded, and he returned home feeling quite pleased.

The Song family had four mansions, each gifted by their father when the four children came of age. Unlike Song Jiaci from the first mansion and Song JinXing from the third mansion, Song Lecheng did not live on his own but had been living in this mansion with his parents.

When he returned from outside, Song Lecheng, who was whistling, saw his father seeing a guest off. The two were speaking in low voices, both wearing the smiles of businessmen in the business world. Song Lecheng casually glanced at them and suddenly widened his eyes when he saw the person\'s appearance.

He saw his father shaking hands with that person and sending them off in the waiting car by the gate before he happily walked back.

Song Lecheng jumped out from beside the garden. "Dad!"

Song Jingwu was startled by him and glared angrily. "You brat, hiding here on purpose to scare your old man, huh! If you scare your old man into a bad state, just wait to cry!"

Song Lecheng didn\'t care about arguing with his father and hurriedly asked, "Is that person the one who was involved in the Spring Breeze Charity event with you before?"

Song Jingwu\'s face turned serious. "It\'s none of your business, don\'t ask about things that shouldn\'t concern you. Go inside!"

Song Lecheng knew from his father\'s reaction that he hadn\'t made a mistake. He was both anxious and angry. "Dad! Why are you collaborating with him again? Your previous collaborations were cut off by Lao San. If Lao San finds out that you\'re associating with him again, our family is finished!"

Song Jingwu was so infuriated that he looked around for something to hit him with. He regretted not having something at hand to teach him a lesson. "You can\'t expect anything good to come out of a dog\'s mouth! Supporting others while destroying your own prestige! Am I supposed to be afraid that Song JinXing won\'t succeed? Get out of my sight and keep your mouth shut!"

Song Lecheng jumped three feet away, avoiding his father\'s physical attack, and exclaimed loudly, "Dad! You can\'t collaborate with this kind of person anymore! Our Song family does legitimate business and can\'t be dragged down by such a person! If Lao San finds out, he won\'t spare you. We\'ve already earned enough through company dividends. If we provoke Lao San and he kicks us out of the company, we\'ll truly have nothing!"

Upon hearing these words, Song Jingwu was so stunned that he forgot about hitting him. He stared at his unfamiliar son in disbelief. "Song Lecheng, do you even know what you\'re saying? I am your father!"

Song Lecheng lamented, "It doesn\'t matter who my father is! When you collaborated with that person, you didn\'t earn much either! Instead of wasting your energy, it\'s better to help Lao San make money. If the company\'s profits double this year, we\'ll receive even more dividends! Isn\'t that better than taking risks and engaging in illegal activities? There are easier and simpler paths we can take. Why should we choose the more difficult and dangerous one? In over a year, you\'ve never had the upper hand against Lao San. Can\'t you see that?"

Song Jingwu affirmed, "You\'ve been bewitched by Song JinXing, haven\'t you?"

Song Lecheng exclaimed, "Dad!"

Finally finding a stick in the garden, Song Jingwu rushed over and started hitting Song Lecheng mercilessly. "I knew I couldn\'t rely on you. I never planned to groom you. You\'re worse than a chicken! I didn\'t expect you to not only be unreliable but also betray me by siding with that little bastard, Song JinXing. Fine! It seems that our family can\'t tolerate you. I\'d rather kill you, you ungrateful wretch!"

Song Lecheng looked at his unyielding father and saw a reflection of his past self.

So, in Song JinXing\'s eyes, he was this foolish!

Song Lecheng realized that he couldn\'t reason with his father at the moment. He swiftly dodged Song Jingwu\'s stick and threw out the words, "I can\'t be bothered to argue with you," before running into the house. Song Jingwu, infuriated, threw the stick at his retreating figure, but being older, he became short of breath after chasing him for a few steps.

Song Lecheng\'s mother, Qiu Meiqian, hurriedly walked over. "Little Le, that\'s just his temperament. Why do you bother arguing with him?"

Song Jingwu pushed her away and gave her a dark look. "Little Le stayed at your parents\' place for some time, and now his way of speaking is just like yours and your father\'s! Don\'t think I don\'t know who taught him this!"

Qiu Meiqian felt a little guilty and whispered, "My father also hopes that we can live a more stable life."

Song Jingwu snorted, "That\'s why your Qiu family is what it is today!"

Qiu Meiqian felt a bit angry at Song Jingwu\'s words. "What do you mean, Song Jingwu? Are you looking down on my Qiu family? If you had been more capable in front of my grandfather, you wouldn\'t have needed to marry me!"

The two of them ended up quarreling and parting ways. Qiu Meiqian also complained to her parents about the things Song Jingwu said. When she returned home, she called her parents and scolded them as well. Old Master Qiu and Madam Qiu were initially happy to receive a call from their daughter, but instead, they were met with her complaints.

After hanging up the phone, Old Master Qiu became somewhat angry. "This foolish person can\'t see the situation clearly! We don\'t need to bother with her anymore! Let\'s see what kind of result this couple can achieve!"

The unpleasantness in the second household didn\'t affect Song Lecheng\'s act of extending a helping hand to Song Shuling. It saved her from taking many detours and saved a lot of time.

The production team of the drama "Letters with You" quickly completed their preparations. Both the director and the screenwriter were top figures in the industry. With their extraordinary vision and experience, they unanimously recognized "Letters with You" as an excellent work. Everyone had confidence in this project.

However, the script was not yet fully written in a short period of time. But because the original system and plot of "Letters with You" were well-developed and perfect, there were very few places in the script that needed adaptation. They could completely write the script while filming.

With the formation of the behind-the-scenes team, the next step was casting.

Although the actors in the industry had not heard of Tianyao Entertainment, many talented actors came to audition just by seeing the highly skilled team behind the project.

Soon, the industry became aware that the female lead of the new project "Letters with You" was Zhong Ruanxing.

Like a sudden emergence, a brand new company and project became the most sought-after resource in the industry without making any noise, which truly puzzled many people.
