When Song Meiyu noticed this, she quickly wiped the corner of her eyes and explained, “Jiaren, don’t think too much about it. Your father just… has an urgent matter, so…”

She didn’t want Song Jiaren to be hurt by her father’s cold treatment, but she couldn’t think of a reason to explain. After all, which father would treat his daughter like this?

Song Jiaren helped her back to the sofa and said, “Mommy, I know everything.”

Song Meiyu held her breath and not knowing how to comfort her, she caressed her face lovingly.

Song Jiaren, her eyes filled with adoration, smiled. “It’s enough that I have a mother.”

While Song Meiyu felt comforted in her heart, she also felt that her overly sensible daughter had suffered too much and was determined to give her more love.

Song Jiaren still didn’t know what was going on in Song Meiyu’s mind. Looking at the wrinkles at the corner of her eyes, she thought for a moment before saying, “Mom, do you know why Wang Yaotian treats Song Yoyo so well?”

Song Meiyu wanted to correct her. Although Wang Yaotian was in the wrong, he was still her father.

Before she could speak, she was stunned by her next sentence.

“Because Song Yoyo is his biological daughter.”

Song Jiaren didn’t give her time to react. Instead, she continued, “Moreover, he transferred more than half of the company’s assets in the eight years he was in the company.”

After suffering these blows, Song Meiyu calmed down and she called the company to inquire about the liquidity bills for the past few seasons.

Seeing that she could still calmly give out commands one after another, Song Jiaren heaved a sigh of relief. She was really worried that she wouldn’t be able to accept it.

Although Song Meiyu looked calm on the surface, her hands were trembling. If this matter was proven to be true, then her family would be ruined.

As time passed, neither of them spoke. They were both waiting.

They were waiting for an outcome that would change their fate.

Soon, the sound of a message sounded on the phone. Song Meiyu didn’t dare to look at the message on her phone. She already had an answer in her heart.

Under Song Jiaren’s encouraging gaze, she turned on her phone and browsed through the documents one by one. Her expression turned uglier and uglier. Wang Yaotian had used her name to embezzle hundreds of millions of the company’s liquid funds. Normally, this money wouldn’t be able to shake the company’s foundation, but now, all of the company’s money was invested in the South Sea project. Once the capital chain broke, there was a risk of bankruptcy.

Seeing her expression, Song Jiaren said, “Mom, let’s think of a way to make him return the money.”

Song Meiyu, not understanding what she meant, looked at her.

Song Jiaren smiled mysteriously and whispered her plan into her ear.

Song Meiyu’s eyes lit up when she heard that. The anger and disappointment she felt earlier disappeared as she gently knocked her head. “You’re really smart.”

At night, Wang Yaotian still hadn’t returned. At home, only Song Chuyan asked about his whereabouts. Song Meiyu said indifferently, “He’s probably going to see a friend. Let’s eat first and ignore him.”

Song Chuyan frowned and said, “Mom, did you quarrel with my dad? How can you be so cold to him? No wonder Dad doesn’t want to stay at home.”

Song Meiyu didn’t want him to get involved in this matter. After all, he was about to take his college entrance exam and she didn’t want him to be affected. However, she didn’t expect him to say something like that.

Tears welled up in her eyes. How could she not be heartbroken after being deceived and betrayed by her husband? However, for the sake of her children, she could only stay strong.

Song Jiaren realized that something was wrong with her and quickly held her hand to give her encouragement. She then said to Song Chuyan, “Are you saying that you don’t want to stay in this house anymore?”
