Starting From the Root

“Me? Heartless? You and your daughter were insensible! Don’t expect me to be nice if Song Peihan can’t be an obedient daughter!”

“She only scolded Song Ci a few times. How is that being disobedient? What else do you want?”

Pang Xiaohui was unwilling to give up.

“You’re so annoying. At least Kong Chuyun was quiet!”

Pang Xiaohui almost lost it when Kong Chuyun was mentioned! She pointed at Song He and mocked, “So now you’re praising her? Why didn’t you say the same thing when we had sex?”

Song He furiously threw his cup at Pang Xiaohui.

“How dare you talk to me like that! You’re the one who seduced me! Get out!”

Pang Xiaohui was caught off guard and did not manage to dodge.

‘He’s blaming me now? Does he think it’s possible for me to get pregnant alone?!’

Pang Xiaohui turned around angrily and left. When she opened the door, she saw Song Peihan standing outside.

“When did you get back?”

Pang Xiaohui felt embarrassed. She wondered how much Song Peihan had overheard.

Song Peihan replied, “When dad said you’ve found out.”

“Peihan, don’t worry. Your dad loves you the most. The company will be yours in the end. No one can take it away from you.”

Song Peihan already knew that Song He only loved himself. Since Song Ci had become more useful, he decided to abandon her!

‘I have to fight for myself.’

Song Peihan returned to her room and continued thinking.

‘I’m not a match for Song Ci anymore, so I shouldn’t lay my hands on her. Besides, even if I get rid of her, nothing will be solved! Song He is the root of this problem. Everyone knows that he wants a son. So, I must ensure that never happens.’

…

Song Ci was very happy. She helped her two children bathe leisurely.

“I’m going to be working for the next two days and will only be back the night after tomorrow.”

Upon hearing that, Song Yujin felt relieved. Song Ci would not be gone for long.

Lu Suo nodded obediently and said, “Mommy, come home as soon as possible.”

Song Ci nodded.

“I’ll also buy both of you gifts!”

After saying that, Song Ci kissed the two children.

Lu Suo shook his head.

“No need. I just want you to return home!”

Song Ci smiled and pinched Lu Suo’s face.

“Okay!”

The next morning, Song Ci sent Song Yujin and Lu Suo to school. Then, Zhang Huan drove her to the airport.

Yang Haoran and Sun Qin were already waiting for her.

“We should take the special passageway since you’re famous now.”

Yang Haoran was right. Fans immediately swarmed Song Ci at the airport’s entrance.

‘I didn’t expect to be so popular.’

The fans began to chatter.

“Sister Song Ci, you’re so beautiful!”

“Sister Song Ci, I love you!”

“Sister Song Ci, will you be making an appearance on variety shows?”

“Sister Song Ci, I can’t wait to see you in a police uniform!”

Song Ci was a little overwhelmed. She picked a few safe questions to answer.

Yang Haoran and Sun Qin tried to protect Song Ci.

“Everyone, don’t push! Be careful and give Song Ci some space. Thank you.”
