The daughter of a general is so cool in the novel about a wealthy family

To say they were ending their partnership rather than their marriage made their brief separation more like a comma than a full period.

Shi Xiao understood that Yuan Shu should not be trapped in a wealthy family like a canary in a cage. She should be free and become a decision maker in the business world. Instead of trapping her, it would be better for her to realize her dream.

The breeze was blowing by the river. It was already the end of October and the temperature was a little chilly. The cold wind blew across Yuan Shu's exposed skin. She couldn't help but shiver, then she raised her hands and rubbed her arms to keep warm.

Shi Xiao took off his coat and put it on Yuan Shu, saying, "I will make the divorce public, but you must finish the current project of Shi Group before you can leave."

Yuan Shu nodded and said, "I initiated this project, so I will not be irresponsible. Besides, I also want to see what tricks Li Ci is playing behind my back."

Regardless of his position, Yuan Shu still admired Li Ci. Li Ci was an opponent that Yuan Shu respected very much because they understood each other and had common interests. If Yuan An hadn't happened back then, Yuan Shu felt that he and Li Ci should have been very good friends.

They have a lot of common topics, but both of them carry a heavy burden, and this burden is also a secret that they can never tell each other. Therefore, they can understand each other but cannot trust each other.

On the other side, Song Shi was about to go find Old Man Song, but was stopped by Jiang Chen. Song Shi covered her already swollen half face and shouted with tears streaming down her face: "Why are you stopping me? I want to tell my grandfather and let my grandfather teach him a lesson!"

Jiang Chen was unusually gentle to Song Shi, "Today is our engagement day, the whole family should be happy, don't let this matter affect our mood, I don't want to have an unhappy day today."

Song Shi was still a little unwilling after hearing the persuasion, and Jiang Chen said again: "I know you are wronged, don't worry, I am here."

Jiang Chen was very good at coaxing Song Shi. He didn't make any promises, but Song Shi felt much calmer when she thought that he would avenge her. Then, Jiang Chen said, "Go home first. My gift for you has arrived. Don't you want to open it and take a look?"

Jiang Chen's tone sounded like an order, not gentle at all, but Song Shi was completely fascinated by his words, nodded, and then went home.

Jiang Chen glanced coldly at Song Shi's back and asked Li Lin to go home with Song Shi.

After everything was arranged, Song Chuan and Jiang Chen went to a restaurant together.

Today's banquet featured delicacies from land and sea, fine wines and delicious food, but everyone was busy socializing and had no time to eat properly. Now that the banquet is over, everyone feels hungry.

Jiang Chen ordered a steak. While cutting the steak, he said coldly, "You didn't tell me what would happen tonight in advance."

Song Chuan said helplessly: "I just found out about it a while ago. The old man made a temporary decision. When I wanted to tell you, it was too late. The old man knew that tonight was your first time in the business world, so he wanted to take this opportunity to get his granddaughter engaged."

His granddaughter is not Song Chuan's daughter.

That’s right, Song Chuan is not Song Shi’s biological father, which is why the old man doesn’t like Song Shi.

Song Chuan is the illegitimate son of the old man's mistress. The old man had no good feelings towards him and let him fend for himself. After Song Shi was born, Song Shi's parents died in a car accident. The old man couldn't bear to let his most beloved granddaughter lose her parents, so he brought Song Chuan back.

Although Li Lin knew the truth, she had no children, so she raised Song Shi as her own daughter and doted on her very much.

It’s just that Song Chuan has always resented Old Man Song’s partiality and ruthlessness, and has always wanted to monopolize the Song family’s assets, so he has no feelings for Song Shi, and his relationship with Song Shi has always been distant.

However, Song Shi took advantage of the old man's doting and looked down on everyone, especially Song Chuan, her nominal father.

It was not until a few years ago that Jiang Chen found Song Chuan and the two established a cooperative relationship. With the help of Song Chuan, Jiang Chen gradually developed Jiang Chen's family.

Song Chuan then arranged for Song Shi to meet Jiang Chen, and used all means to make Song Shi fail in her love for Jiang Chen.

And when Muzhou came to this world and became Jiang Chen, they continued with their plan and took control of everything.

Song Chuan swallowed the steak and said, "Song Shi is getting more and more disobedient. She wants too much. I can't control her. But the old man hasn't handed over the power to me yet. Without your engagement with Song Shi, our previous efforts will be in vain."

Jiang Chen let out a long sigh and said nothing more.

This is indeed a problem. Although the Jiang family is growing stronger and has become a family that cannot be underestimated, there are still the Shi family and Li Ci. He needs the help of the Song family.

Jiang Chen was furious. He thrust his fork into the steak and said impatiently, "Song Hong is getting more and more confused! His sudden decision has put me in the spotlight and almost ruined my plan for so many years! Li Ci was the mastermind behind the scenes today. I could have just watched Shi Xiao and Li Ci fight and enjoyed the fruits of their labor."

"Now everyone knows that the Song family and I have joined forces. No one can tolerate the Song family monopolizing City A, so Shi Xiao and Li Ci will definitely join forces again! My plan to annex the Shi family can only be postponed!"

Song Chuan was not worried about Shi Xiao and Li Ci joining forces. He said leisurely while eating steak, "There is nothing to be afraid of Shi Xiao. People have weaknesses. I didn't believe in Shi Xiao's feelings for Yuan Shu, but from what happened tonight, Shi Xiao would never give up this woman. So, Shi Xiao would definitely compromise for this woman. If he used Yuan Shu to cause trouble, Shi Xiao and Li Ci would definitely not join forces."

Song Chuan's words made Jiang Chen alert. If Song Chuan wanted to use Yuan Shu, Jiang Chen would not agree.

Song Chuan continued, "At most, Shi Xiao won't take action against Li Ci for the time being, and there will be a conflict between the two families. However, with the help of the Song family, the situation is now in your favor. I think I have done a good thing. Now it depends on how much Shi Xiao can do for Yuan Shu."

Hearing this, Jiang Chen pressed down the steak with the knife in his hand, put away the fork, and said coldly: "Song Shi is becoming more and more disrespectful to you. Does she already know that you are not her biological father?"

Song Chuan said, "No, the old man said that he would tell her the truth after this banquet, so the Song family doesn't know it yet."

After saying that, Song Chuan became a little worried. Song Shi didn't know the truth yet, but he still dared to treat him like this. Once Song Shi knew that he was not her biological father, wouldn't she want to completely trample him under her feet just because the old man doted on her?

Jiang Chen looked at the change in Song Chuan's expression, sneered, and said lightly: "You just need to find a way to appease Song Shi and gain a foothold in the Song family. As for Yuan Shu..." Jiang Chen paused, and said threateningly: "You can't do anything to her."

When Song Chuan saw that Jiang Chen looked like he was going to kill him, he was shocked and didn't dare to speak for a moment. When did Jiang Chen change? He was no longer the young boy he used to be.

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he smiled evilly and said, "I still have a trick up my sleeve. It's time to use it."

After listening to it, Song Chuan thought carefully about what this move was. After thinking for a while, he hesitated and said, "She has already failed. Can she still use it?"

Jiang Chen put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth elegantly, and said, "How do you know if you don't try? After all, a lifesaver cannot be repaid with just a few words."
