Chapter 51: Boss Ling Is Jealous and Very Domineering

Ling Hanyu watched as she cried harder and harder, then crouched down and whispered a few words in Nuonuo’s ear.

Nuonuo nodded, then went over to Song Qingtian’s side and tugged at her clothes with her little hand. Song Qingtian was so engrossed in her tears that she suddenly felt someone pulling on her—she looked down and saw it was Nuonuo.

She strained to listen and asked, her voice choked with sobs:

“What’s wrong, sweetheart?”

“Mommy, please don’t cry anymore. Nuonuo, Daddy, and Grandfather will all feel so bad for you. If you keep crying, Nuonuo will cry too.”

“Alright, alright, Mommy won’t cry anymore. It’s just that I’m a bit sad inside.”

As she spoke, Song Qingtian picked up Nuonuo and gently kissed her cheek, thinking to herself, “Oh, what a poor child—destined to lose either her father or her mother.”

Children are very sensitive creatures. Sensing that Song Qingtian’s mood was off, Nuonuo wrapped her arms around her neck and began softly patting her back.

“Mommy, don’t be sad. Nuonuo will pat… ”

Song Qingtian had already stopped crying, but now that Nuonuo patted her, tears started flowing again. Seeing this, Ling Hanyu recalled what she had just said earlier and thought to himself, “Could it be that Song Qingtian is really experiencing early menopause?”

Lately, she has indeed seemed quite strange. Even if she isn’t going through early menopause, there’s no doubt she’s got some psychological issues.

It seems he’ll have to find a good psychologist to take a look at her later.

Ling Hanyu wiped the tears from Song Qingtian’s face with his finger, then said rather sternly:

“Stop crying.”

Hearing Ling Hanyu say this, Song Qingtian couldn’t help but laugh and blurt out:

“How can you comfort someone like that? You’re so mean!”

Ling Hanyu was taken aback by the remark. Over the years, he’d learned how to handle everything—except how to coax a woman. He wasn’t exactly a gentle person, either. After a long pause, he tried hard to soften his expression.

“Stop crying.”

Seeing Ling Hanyu, such a stoic, unemotional man, making an effort to sound tender, Song Qingtian felt a faint ripple in her heart. Not wanting to let herself get any more emotional, she hugged Nuonuo and walked toward the door.

“Dad, I’m heading out now. I’ll come pick you up once I’ve made the appointment.”

“I’m fine. Just take care of yourself—don’t worry about me.”

Song Pingzhao saw the family of three off outside, watching their car drive away until they were no longer visible. Only then did he slowly return to the villa.

With Nuonuo by his side, keeping him entertained and helping him momentarily forget about Deng Siyu and Song Yinyin, now that Nuonuo and the others were gone, the tenderness on Song Pingzhao’s face vanished in an instant, replaced by an air of impending storm.

It seemed he needed to think carefully about his second daughter. She really had big ambitions—she even had her eye on his own jiefu! If it weren’t for Ling Hanyu’s upright character, wouldn’t Song Qingtian be furious right now?

Song Pingzhao stormed into his study, took a document out of his safe, made some revisions, read it over several times, and then carefully put it away again.

On the document were two words: “Will.”

In fact, he’d been writing this will for a long time, occasionally taking it out to review. Whenever he saw that it left eighty percent of the shares to Song Qingtian, he could console himself, feeling that he had at least done right by his eldest daughter.

But this time, he directly increased the share to ninety-five percent.

He only left five percent of the shares—and two houses—to Deng Siyu and her daughter, and even the current villa, Song Pingzhao deliberately reserved for Song Qingtian.

After all, this villa was chosen back then by him and Song Qingtian’s mother, Shen Ruyue; it held so many cherished memories for them.
