Chapter 44
He Ping firmly pinched the bottom of the bowl with one hand, still struggling with whether she should speak or not.

Song Zhiyi called her aunt for 20 years.

But now, she wants to selfishly go against her late husband's last wish for Song Zhiyi to be happy.

Because of interests, she was completely reduced to the same mercenary person as the Gu family, forcing Song Zhiyi to accept the marriage, forcing her to marry someone she didn't love.

Song Zhiyi noticed He Ping who was in a daze, took a piece of braised pork with chopsticks and put it in He Ping's bowl, and found a topic: "Auntie, what did the teachers at the parent meeting in Xiaozhou say today?"

As Song Zhiyi said, she glanced at Song Zhizhou's face. She just wanted to know how Song Zhizhou was doing in school.

Song Zhizhou also looked at He Ping because of Song Zhiyi's problem. He carefully avoided Song Zhiyi and secretly winked at He Ping, signaling He Ping not to tell Song Zhiyi about her situation at school.

But He Ping acted as if she hadn't noticed, and sighed: "Xiaozhou is becoming more and more disobedient at school, and I'm almost becoming a regular visitor to the teacher's office."

Song Zhizhou was anxious and angry, and said angrily: "Mom, didn't you just promise me not to tell my sister?"

Song Zhiyi glared at Song Zhizhou fiercely: "Song Zhizhou!"

The 1.8-meter tall boy could only lower his head to eat resentfully.

He didn't have to listen to anyone, but Song Zhiyi didn't dare not to listen. This was a habit he had kept since he was a child.

Because he didn't want to stay in the house and be criticized by two people at the same time, Song Zhizhou quickly finished his meal and ran into the yard without delaying for a moment.

Seeing Song Zhizhou leave, He Ping turned pale again.She pondered for a long time, and finally said what she was holding back in her heart in front of Song Zhiyi.

"Xiaoyi... I heard that you are going to get engaged soon?" He Ping's voice was low, filled with guilt and uneasiness.

Song Zhiyi was taken aback, and put down his chopsticks: "Aunt, who did you hear that from?"

"Gu Tingting has been calling me for the past few days, asking me to help persuade you..." He Ping lowered her head, completely afraid to look at Song Zhiyi.

"So... Aunt, are you going to persuade me to marry into the Lu family? To marry Lu Huainian?" Song Zhiyi asked in disbelief.

She never thought that such a day would come.Even the home she relies on the most, the strongest support behind her, will choose to stand on the opposite side of her.

"Why?" Song Zhiyi took a deep breath, but she still wanted to ask He Ping why.

But what she didn't expect was that He Ping cried and knelt down in front of her the first second she asked.

This is her uncle's most cherished woman, the elder she respects the most in the world, but she, who is so proud at this moment, kneels down in front of her crying and refuses to get up.

Song Zhiyi shook her head desperately, and knelt down in front of He Ping crying, "Auntie, don't be like this..."

"Please get up first, stand up and talk about something." Song Zhiyi held He Ping's hand tightly, trying to persuade He Ping up.

"Xiaoyi, I'm not worthy to be your aunt. Like your uncle, I also hope that you can marry someone you love in the future, but I can't help it." He Ping kept crying.

"Xiaoyi, the Gu family called me and told me that as long as they persuade you to marry into the Gu family, they will return your uncle's company to us."

He Ping looked at Song Zhiyi, trying to persuade Song Zhiyi:

"Xiaoyi, there is nothing wrong with marrying the Lu family. The Lu family is the richest man in the deep sea. You won't suffer if you marry into their family. At least you don't have to worry about having no money to spend, and you don't have to suffer from having no money..."

She sighed again, life without material things was difficult.

I heard Gu Tingting said that what Song Zhiyi likes now is a small employee who drives an electric car to and from get off work every day.

Song Zhiyi would not be happy even if she married a junior employee.

He Ping hypnotized herself, and then added: "And..."

"And..., if you get married, your uncle's company will come back..."

Song Zhiyi looked at He Ping's eyes full of desire at the moment, and silently let go of He Ping's hand.

He Ping has now become like Lin Min, false and selfish, even the words she tried to persuade her are exactly the same.

In fact, she had already planned in her heart, even if He Ping didn't persuade her, she would do her best to get the company back from Gu Tianlin's hands, and she would do her best to let their mother and son live a good life.

But Song Zhiyi still couldn't accept He Ping's "heartfelt words" from her mouth.

She took a few steps back and put some distance away from He Ping.She just wanted to escape now, but was held back by He Ping.

"Xiaoyi, don't blame auntie. Auntie really can't help it. Xiaozhou needs money to study now, but I am getting old, and the company will not want me soon. Soon I will even take the money for Xiaozhou's schooling." I can't come out."

"Xiaozhou's class teacher just told me today that Xiaozhou has not been thinking about his studies. He hangs out with people outside the school all day to discuss making money, and his grades have plummeted."

"Let him go on like this, maybe he won't even be able to pass the second exam."

Hearing Song Zhizhou, Song Zhiyi's heart trembled violently, and gradually began to waver.

Song Zhizhou chose to be an art student when he first entered high school.She still remembers that she asked him why at that time.

Song Zhizhou proudly and firmly replied that she would never forget it in her life.

He told her that he wanted to become an artist like his father Song Yanhai, and carry forward the business that Song Yanhai managed.

However, it didn't take long for Song Yanhai to die of illness, and the career he was proud of all his life was also cheated by Gu Tianlin.

"Auntie, I can teach Xiaozhou, and I will let him study at school with peace of mind. Don't worry about his tuition, I will pay for him." Song Zhiyi wanted He Ping to relax and assured her.

He Ping shook her head quickly when she heard this, and said, "No, I know. The Gu family told me that if you refuse to marry, they will destroy your uncle's hard work. If your uncle's company is gone, Xiaozhou's What's the point of insisting on learning to paint?"

At this moment, Song Zhizhou, who was eavesdropping outside, broke in and yelled at He Ping, "I will figure out a way for my father's company. I don't need my sister to sacrifice her happiness."

"Since Dad left, my sister has been helping to support the family. We owe my sister enough, what else do you want?" Song Zhizhou said, his eyes blushing uncontrollably. No matter how much You Ping yelled, she didn't look back.

Because he was worried about Song Zhizhou, Song Zhiyi also chased after him, and found Song Zhizhou who was crying secretly by himself not far from the door.

He squatted helplessly on a big stone slab, letting the scorching sun stay on his body, motionless, like a wounded little animal.

Song Zhiyi walked over, imitating how he was when he was a child, and gently patted Song Zhizhou on the back to comfort him.

In her heart, she silently made a decision.
