After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

Chapter 66: Chapter 66 Mr. Song, Please Forgive Me~

“Agree to her request.”

Seeing the words on the tissue, Xiao Jinglan’s eyebrows twisted together.

She pursed her lips and finally conceded, “Let me think about this matter, I’ll notify you later.”

Cao Mei obviously did not notice her unusual reaction, “Lady Xiao, please don’t make me wait too long.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Jinglan’s brows were almost knotted with concern.

She looked at Xiao Mo, bewildered, and demanded, “What exactly do you want to do? Why would you agree to such an unreasonable request from Cao Mei?”

Xiao Mo folded the tissue he had just written on and chuckled lightly at Xiao Jinglan, “Don’t you think that Xia Wenjin, compared to Lu Zhaozhao, would be easier to control?”

After he left Lu Zhaozhao’s school, he had conducted a simple investigation on the so-called real heiress, Xia Wenjin.

Ambitious, yet with capabilities and scheming that completely mismatched her ambitions.

Xiao Jinglan naturally knew of Xia Wenjin and understood that she indeed would be easier to control, but…

Her eyes narrowed, “Are you sure you don’t have ulterior motives for Lu Zhaozhao, making you want Xia Wenjin to marry into the Song Family instead of her?”

Xiao Mo’s expression remained unchanged, his lips curling slightly, “Having Xia Wenjin marry into the Song Family gives us an extra pawn to control, and it will also corner Lu Zhaozhao into a desperate situation where she willingly throws herself at me.”

He saw no problem with killing two birds with one stone.

Xiao Jinglan sighed softly, “Neither in looks nor in temperament does Xia Wenjin match up to Lu Zhaozhao. Even if we try, Song Sinian has to agree, right?”

“Ha! Song Sinian?” Xiao Mo scoffed, “There’s no need for his agreement. It will be enough if we make Lu Zhaozhao realize she has no place in the Song Family.”

Xiao Jinglan raised her eyebrows, unsure of Xiao Mo’s intentions, continuing to frown deeply at him.

Xiao Mo looked slightly disdainful, “You’ve been with the Song Family for so long and yet you haven’t figured out Song Sinian’s character? Is he the type of man who likes trouble?”

He had no interest in marriage, and the marriage deal was something they had pushed forward from behind the scenes, not expecting that Song Sinian would be the one to benefit.

If either Old Master Song or the Song Group pressured Lu Zhaozhao, with her timid, fish-out-of-water nature, she would surely be unable to bear it and leave Sinian.

A man like Song Sinian, emotionless and monstrous, wouldn’t know how to woo a woman and would feel it troublesome, which meant things would likely go smoothly.

Xiao Mo’s explanation relaxed Xiao Jinglan, she picked up the coffee on the table and gently stirred it, “If that’s the case, then the best plan now is to have Xia Wenjin curry favor with Old Master Song. When he finds out that Lu Zhaozhao is a fake heiress, Xia Wenjin’s issue might just resolve itself.”

Ever since Song Sinian was diagnosed with depression in his childhood, Old Master Song had been extremely protective of his precious grandson. Anyone who might affect Song Sinian negatively, he would help deal with.

So as long as Old Master Song feels that Xia Wenjin is more suitable for Sinian than Lu Zhaozhao, that would be enough!

Xiao Mo and Xiao Jinglan looked at each other and smiled, this was simpler than they had imagined…

In the evening, as soon as Song Sinian arrived home, he saw Lu Zhaozhao sitting on the foyer steps.

Her hands were supporting her chin, her little face tightly scrunched up.

Song Sinian squatted down, cupped her little face in one hand and kissed her, asking lightly, “What’s made you upset?”

Though complex emotions were still hard for him to discern, based on her current expression, with all her features squeezed together, he guessed from past experience that she was likely unhappy.

“Just…” Lu Zhaozhao pursed her small mouth, at a loss for how to begin.

Seeing that she didn’t speak, Song Sinian stood up and changed his shoes, “Let’s talk in the living room.”

His words had barely escaped his lips when Lu Zhaozhao’s small hand directly came to hug him, firmly clinging to his thigh.@@novelbin@@

“Mr. Song, please forgive me first, I really didn’t do it on purpose this time!!!”

Song Sinian’s heart suddenly sank, and the moment he looked towards Lu Zhaozhao, his eyes and brows immediately tensed up.

He stood still, his voice deep, “You’re injured?”

“Ah?” Lu Zhaozhao was puzzled by his question, her little head tilted up, looking at Song Sinian with a face full of confusion.

Only then did she suddenly realize, and she quickly shook her head, “No, no, I’m not injured, it’s something else.”

Her voice trailed off to a whisper towards the end.

Song Sinian, on the other hand, was relieved and raised his hand to rub her little head, “It’s good that you’re not injured, we can talk about other things later.”

“That won’t do, we have to talk about it now!” Lu Zhaozhao insisted, still tightly holding onto Song Sinian’s thigh with no intention of letting go.

Her little face was pressed against the seam of his trousers, her entire upper body squeezed against his leg—any slight movement from him would brush against the softest part of her body.

It was impossible to avoid.

Song Sinian had no choice but to stand still.

He raised his hand and gently rubbed his brow, his tone still light, “Go on then, what happened?”

“Well… then you have to promise not to get angry with me…” Lu Zhaozhao said this without daring to look at Song Sinian, her head hung low as she mumbled.

Song Sinian’s brow raised slightly, “So, what are you proposing in exchange for me not getting angry?”

Although he had yet to grasp the concept of being angry himself, if Lu Zhaozhao said he would be, then perhaps it was likely.

He was, after all, a businessman, adept at bargaining under favorable conditions for higher value.

However, he had never applied this tactic with Lu Zhaozhao before.

But she had previously mentioned the concept of “compensation,” so perhaps “exchange” would be acceptable as well?

Lu Zhaozhao hadn’t expected Song Sinian to be so calm and even negotiate with her.

Maybe… this could work.

Thinking so, she lifted her small head and weakly spoke, “As long as you’re not angry, you can set any condition.”

Their family’s Mr. Song, an angel like him, would surely not make things difficult for her, therefore, Lu Zhaozhao boldly gave a “blank cheque.”

The eyes behind Song Sinian’s gold-rimmed glasses narrowed, a trace of darkness flickering within.

Any condition, huh… Well, that’s nice.

“Do you still remember that last week you said you would go to the Song Mansion to celebrate grandfather’s birthday?” Lu Zhaozhao murmured as she hugged Song Sinian’s thigh.

Song Sinian nodded, “Mhm, I remember.”

“But then grandfather was hospitalized, and we couldn’t celebrate,” Lu Zhaozhao’s words paused slightly, “So… could we go together this weekend to have a meal with grandfather?”

…

Song Sinian did not answer Lu Zhaozhao, which made her somewhat anxious.

Although she said any condition could be mentioned, if it were something that touched Song Sinian’s sore spot, not to mention setting conditions, it would be lucky if she wasn’t kicked out.

Lu Zhaozhao lifted her gaze and stole a glance at Song Sinian, and seeing that he still had not responded, she gently shook him—
