Domination of the Aristocratic Dynasty After a Body Swap with the CEO
Chapter 171: big Dare
Chapter 171
After spending some time in a summer abroad, I returned home only to find that the harsh winter in my country was not yet over.
Zhong Ruanxing sat in the passenger seat of the sports car and for the first time felt a bit cramped, having to slightly curl up her body. "Why did you buy a car with such a low chassis?"
The engine roared, its sound almost shaking the garage. That's how sports cars are, they have this audacious roar every time they start. Song JinXing gripped the steering wheel and drove outward. "It was chosen by You You."
Zhong Ruanxing almost choked on her milk tea. "You let her choose such an expensive car?"
Although it was the first time she saw him drive this car, she could tell by its appearance and brand that it was outrageously expensive. The problem with sports cars is that aside from looking cool, they aren't very practical. If he had chosen it for himself, she could have accepted it, but it turned out to be because of that little brat, Zhong You.
Song JinXing smiled and glanced at her. "You and your sister have similar tastes, so I thought you would like it too."
Zhong Ruanxing: "..."
Well, if he put it that way, she actually did like this sports car.
Which cool girl could resist a street-roaring sports car!
Seeing her expression, Song JinXing knew he had guessed correctly. "When we switch back next time, you can drive it."
At the moment, it was a bit cramped inside his body.
Zhong Ruanxing nodded with anticipation and asked, "Have you figured out what gift to buy for my grandparents? My dad's side is easy, but my grandparents don't lack anything, so I'm not sure."
Song JinXing said, "Buy according to your economic ability. They value the thought, not the gift." He paused for a moment. "Have you told them that you're bringing your girlfriend with you the day after tomorrow?"
Zhong Ruanxing slapped her forehead. "Oh, right! I'll call them now."
She placed her milk tea on the armrest and took out her phone to dial Granny Song's number. After a while, she heard Granny Song's cheerful voice on the other end. "Ah Xing!"
Zhong Ruanxing smiled and said, "Granny, good afternoon. What are you doing?"
Granny Song replied, "I'm accompanying your grandpa for fishing! That old man is useless. He fished for the whole afternoon and didn't even catch a single strand of waterweed. But just now, I accompanied him for half an hour, and he caught a golden carp!"
Granny Song's proud tone amused Zhong Ruanxing. "It seems that you brought good luck to Grandpa."
Granny Song became even happier when praised by her grandson. "Of course, I am his lucky charm! By the way, Ah Xing, I heard from Xiao Ling that you've returned to the country. When will you come to visit Granny and Grandpa? We both miss you a lot."
From the side came Grandpa Song's sulky voice. "You miss your grandson, don't drag me into it!"
Granny Song gave him a thump. "Fine! I'm the only one who misses him! When your grandson comes back, you better lock yourself in your room and don't come out!"
Zhong Ruanxing activated the speakerphone, casting a funny expression at Song JinXing, who silently burst into laughter.
Previously, Grandpa and Granny Song were always a bit reserved in front of him, but now they were gradually returning to their normal grandparent-grandchild interaction.
Zhong Ruanxing expressed concern for the well-being of the two elderly people before getting to the main point. "By the way, Granny, I plan to bring my girlfriend to visit you and Grandpa the day after tomorrow. Do you have time?"
"What?! Girlfriend?!" Granny Song exclaimed, her voice breaking as she dropped her fishing rod and stood up. "The day after tomorrow? Is it for lunch or dinner? Oh my, I finally get to meet my future daughter-in-law! Oh my! Old man! Song Deming! Stop fishing! Our grandson is bringing his girlfriend home!"
Song Grandpa's hand holding the fishing rod trembled, clearly showing some excitement, but he maintained a composed expression. "They'll come when they come. Why are you making such a fuss?"
Granny Song saw through his act and couldn't be bothered with him. She spoke into the phone, "Ah, Ruanxing, what's your girlfriend's name? How old is she? What does she do? Tell Granny quickly, so we won't be rude when we meet her!"
She paused, recalling the hesitant look on Song Shuling's face when she mentioned this sister-in-law last time, and quickly added, "Ruanxing, don't worry. Our family is not old-fashioned. As long as the young lady has good character and comes from a respectable background, both Grandpa and I have no objections. Tell the young lady not to be nervous!"
Zhong Ruanxing felt warm in his heart, sensing that his sincere feelings were reciprocated. "Granny, her name is Zhong Ruanxing. She's two years younger than me and she's an actress. She's a local in Beijing, and her father works as a head chef in a five-star hotel. Her mother used to be an elementary school art teacher but had to quit a couple of years ago due to being diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. She's now on leave and taking care of herself at home. She also has a younger sister who is currently attending kindergarten. They are a harmonious family."
The fact that the grandson shared such detailed information about the girl's situation indicated that he had truly let go of past grievances and sincerely respected his grandmother, despite her being somewhat inadequate.
Granny Song nodded repeatedly. "That's good, that's good. She's an actress, huh? What TV dramas has she acted in? Let me tell you, I've watched a lot of TV dramas in recent years. I even recognize the celebrities that young people are fans of nowadays! Maybe I've even watched the TV show she was in!"
Upon hearing this, Zhong Ruanxing felt a bit embarrassed. "Granny, she... isn't that well-known. She has mainly played supporting roles in some dramas, and she doesn't have much fame. You probably haven't seen her."
Granny Song became anxious. "How can my future granddaughter-in-law from the Song family not even get a leading role? If the company invests a little, they can make my future granddaughter-in-law the female lead! JinXing, you're still too rigid in your approach. Sometimes you need to be more flexible and adaptable. Right, old man?"
Song Grandpa: "Ah, yes, yes."
Zhong Ruanxing smiled and said, "Granny, she doesn't care about those things. Don't worry about it. I'll bring her home the day after tomorrow, and you'll see for yourself."
Granny Song happily responded, "Okay! Granny will be prepared. Just bring her home with confidence!"
After hanging up the phone, Song JinXing turned to her and asked, "Are you relieved now?" f𝐫eewe𝚋nove𝗹.𝗰o𝚖
Zhong Ruanxing glanced at her phone and clicked her tongue. "Ah, I'm just too likable."
The sports car drove out of the Song Mansion and headed towards the antique market where Zhong Ruanxing had previously chosen a gift.
Since Song Jinxing didn't drive often, this limited edition sports car that had caused a sensation among the second-generation elites in Beijing hadn't been seen on the streets for a long time.
One of the young masters from a conglomerate who came to discuss business at the Song Mansion happened to see it and quickly recorded a short video to share in the elite group in Beijing:
"Hey guys, the supercar is back! And this time, it's confirmed to have come out of the Song Mansion!"
"Hey, Song Lecheng and Song Jiawei, it's you guys!"
"It can't be Jiawei, a few days ago when we went out to hang out, she was still driving her old car."
"And it can't be that jerk Song Lecheng. If he had bought such an amazing car, he would have shown it off a long time ago."
"@LEO, watch your language. Are we really that close for you to comment on whether I buy a car or not?"
"Oh, isn't this the young master of the Song family? It's been a while since we've seen you around. Where have you been lately, enjoying yourself? I heard that your entertainment company was taken back by the big shot in your family. Have you found a second wind in your career?"
"Where are you, huh? Come on, give me your address and see if I dare to come and beat you up."
"The young master is getting angry, he's really angry! You guys have some nerve! Apologize to the young master!"
Song Lecheng, who was surrounded by beautiful girls, was about to go crazy.
These second-generation elites used to flatter and pamper him, but ever since Song Jinxing returned to the country and took control of the decision-making power in the Song family, their attitude towards him changed. As Song Jinxing's power and reputation grew, Song Lecheng became increasingly insignificant.
There was only one person in control of the Song family, and it seemed that Song Jinxing was the confirmed successor. For someone like Song Lecheng who couldn't touch the core of power, there was no need to win him over.
Since the incident at the old house where Zhong Ruanxing had humiliated him, Song Lecheng had been grounded by his father for a week.
He lost his company, his pocket money was cut off, and he was even arranged by Song Jingwu to intern at a branch office. Song Lecheng, who had been living carefree for over twenty years, had never experienced such hardship before. In a fit of anger, he secretly ran back to his grandfather's house.
After a tearful plea, his grandparents felt sorry for him and drove away Song Jingwu, who had come to take him back. So Song Lecheng stayed comfortably at his grandfather's house, continuing to indulge in eating, drinking, and playing.
Recently, he had been getting along well with the relatives from his mother's side, the Qiu family. Naturally, the Qiu family relied on the influence of the Song family, and the cousins of his generation from the Qiu family were obedient and eager to please him. It made Song Lecheng feel even more self-important, almost forgetting how miserable he had been when he left the old house.
Now, the teasing and mockery from these second-generation elites in the group reminded Song Lecheng of his current situation, and he angrily pushed away the beautiful girls beside him and left.
