Chapter 1181: It’s Too Late
Song Zhi felt annoyed. He looked at Chen Ming and growled. “Get out of my way.”
Chen Ming glanced at him sideways. Even though Chen Ming seemed calm, Song Zhi inexplicably felt threatened and automatically trembled.
Song Zhi had forgotten about this scary man.
He instinctively retreated a step without daring to give chase.
“You have one day to sort out the inheritance belonging to Mrs Huo,” said Chen Ming mildly.
Song Zhi was furious and wanted to say it was impossible, but Chen Ming interrupted him.
“If you refuse to do it yourself, I don’t mind helping you. Let me warn you that my help does not come free and I seriously doubt that the Song family can afford my services.” Chen Ming looked threatening to begin with. No one had the slightest doubt that he meant what he said.

Chen Ming glanced at Song Qi. “Don’t worry. That includes you as well.” He turned to look at Song Zhi. “Remember. You have only one day to settle this. If you are late, I don’t think you will like the consequences.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he turned to leave.
His men also followed behind him.
After Chen Ming and his men were gone, it felt as though someone had released the pause button and the noise in the hall resumed.
“My bad, Young Master Song. I have something to attend to at home, so I have to go.”
“We have to leave too.”
“My apologies, there is no other option.”
“…”
The guests kept excusing themselves one after another. Before Song Zhi and Song Qi could try to make them stay, most of them were long gone.
Now that Min Yu had walked out on them, no one else was going to stay.
They wanted to introduce Huo Yao to their circles as a member of the Song family, but it had turned into a nightmare.
No one wanted to offend the Min family unless they had a death wish and wanted to get kicked out of the capital.
The Min family used to be politicians until Min Yu took the family business global. Although he was not a politician, he had far higher status than anyone else in town.
Everyone took their cues from the Min clan.
The Song family was in trouble now. Even though the Song family had driven Song Ning out of the clan, her daughter ended up being acquainted with the Min family.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was no wonder they desperately wanted to mend fences with Huo Yao. Sadly, the Song family was no longer good enough for her.
Other than Mr. Zhou, all the guests were long gone.
Song Qi looked at the empty banquet hall. She turned pale and felt powerless. “How could Ning’s daughter know someone from the Min family?”
Did Huo Yao not grow up in the countryside? Did she not recently move to City S before moving to the capital?
How could Huo Yao suddenly know all these influential people?
Song Qi could not wrap her mind around it. Just thinking about it made her mind want to explode.
Song Zhi’s eyes looked red as he questioned Song Qi. “Did you botch the investigation or something?”
If Song Zhi knew Huo Yao was friends with someone from the Min family, he would never have offended Huo Yao.
Song Qi looked at Song Zhi. She was sick of his questioning attitude. Every time something went wrong, he would blame it on her.
Song Qi inhaled deeply before she answered coldly. “Enough already. If you have a problem, why didn’t you do it yourself? When we found out Huo Yao was friends with the chairman of the Apothecaries’ Association, why didn’t you check again? Is it not a little too late to blame it on me? Did you think I would purposely sabotage myself?”
Song Zhi felt furious. Song Qi was right. Why did he not investigate deeper personally when he discovered that Huo Yao was friends with the chairman of the Apothecaries’ Association?
It was simply too late to point fingers at anyone now.
