Chapter 617

As soon as Old Master Song said this, those who originally opposed Song Wanting inheriting the position of the head of the Song family closed their mouths sensibly.

They understood a truth: anyway, they and their children had no chance to inherit the position of the head of the family. Since that was the case, they certainly hoped that the position would be inherited by someone with stronger ability.

Because the stronger the ability of the head of the family, the more money everyone could get.

Although Song Rongyu was also quite good in all aspects, in terms of ability, he was still a big notch worse than Song Wanting.

Don't look at Song Wanting being young, but in fact, Song Wanting could take care of and manage any business of the Song family well.

The antique business was booming in her hands; foreign trade was also handled well by her; even the Li Jiacheng family in Hong Kong felt that she had excellent luck and took the initiative to come over to cooperate with her.

It could be said that in terms of strength, Song Wanting surpassed all the descendants of the Song family, even her uncles.

Everyone was convinced by her inheriting the Song family.

Thinking of this, these people immediately sat back in their seats.

Several of Song Wanting's uncles even said: "Since it is Father's decision, we have no opinion."

Song Tianming and Song Rongyu really didn't expect that the other families would compromise instantly!

Suddenly, the father and son became isolated and helpless.

And Old Master Song's words were too hurtful, right?

What does it mean?

Does it mean that the two of us combined are not as capable as Song Wanting??

Song Tianming gritted his teeth and said: "Father, according to the customs of our Huaxia people, the position of the head of the family has always been passed to men, not women. If you hand the position to Wanting, it will definitely become a laughingstock of the entire upper-class society."

"Oh?" Old Master Song asked indifferently: "Most of the guests who came today are people of the upper-class society. Why didn't I see them laughing at my decision?"

Song Tianming argued strongly: "That's because they are guests, how can they be embarrassed to laugh at the host's decision in public?"

Old Master Song smiled and said seriously: "Tianming, I know your thoughts. I handed the position of the head of the family to Wanting, and you must be unconvinced in your heart, but I still say the same thing: who is the head of the family is not important, what is important is who can help the Song family earn more money!"

"Wanting hasn't participated in family operations for long, but her results, her achievements, everyone has seen!"

"Not to mention anything else, if it weren't for Wanting, how could we cooperate with Li Jiacheng in Hong Kong?"

"You have to know that Li Jiacheng and his two sons have at least 800 billion RMB in assets, both bright and dark. We are cooperating with them now, and there will definitely be great improvement and progress in the future!"

"These were all brought to the Song family by Wanting!"

Old Master Song said one sentence after another, and pointed at Ye Chen, saying seriously: "Including Master Ye, we were able to know Master Ye, all thanks to Wanting! You tell me, why can't Wanting be the head of the Song family?"

Song Tianming was speechless by Old Master Song's questioning. He also knew very well in his heart that Song Wanting was indeed very strong in all aspects, stronger than his son, and even stronger than himself.

But even so, he couldn't bear the decision of Song Wanting becoming the head of the Song family.

He couldn't help but curse in his heart: "You Song Wanting are just a little girl, do you really think you are some kind of business woman?"

"If you want to be a strong woman, you can get out of the Song family and be your strong woman outside, don't block my way in the Song family!"

When thinking of this, Song Tianming was already gritting his teeth, and murderous intent arose in his heart.

Old Master Song seemed to have noticed the dissatisfaction in his eldest son's heart, so he looked at Ye Chen and said respectfully: "Master Ye, this old man has a presumptuous request, I hope you can agree."

Ye Chen smiled indifferently and said: "Old Master, please speak."

Old Master Song said: "I hope you can become the second successor to the head of the Song family. If something happens to Wanting in the future, and Wanting has not left any children, then you will be the helmsman of the Song family. If you agree, I can make a promise now that 30% of the Song family's net profit in the future will belong to you, and it will be permanently valid."

The reason he said this was because Old Master Song was indeed worried that his eldest son's family would be unfavorable to Song Wanting.

But he was unwilling to give up his plan because of this.

Old Master Song knew very well in his heart that if the Song family wanted to soar in the future, the first thing was to let Song Wanting become the head of the family.

If Ye Chen could be Song Wanting's husband and marry into the Song family, that would be perfect.

Even if Ye Chen was unwilling to marry into the family, it didn't matter. As long as he had children with Song Wanting, the children would have the blood of the Song family. Whether they had the surname Song didn't matter to him anymore.

What's more, if Ye Chen became his granddaughter's husband, he himself could benefit endlessly in the future.

He had lived until now and had long stopped putting money and interests in the first place, but put physical health and lifespan in the first place.

So handing the position of the head of the family to Song Wanting was just one of his plans.

Letting Ye Chen become Song Wanting's husband was what he hoped for most.

Ye Chen didn't know that Old Master Song still had the idea of him being his granddaughter's husband.

He just felt that Old Master Song said this because he must be worried that Song Wanting would have some disadvantages in the future, so he wanted to bind himself to Song Wanting and let himself protect Song Wanting's safety.

After all, if he was the second successor to the head of the Song family, then it would be meaningless for others to be unfavorable to Song Wanting, because even if Song Wanting was killed, there was still him.

What's more, even if someone in the Song family wanted to covet the position of the head of the family, they would have to weigh whether they could afford to provoke him.

Old Master Song could indeed be considered very sincere, giving 30% of the entire Song family's income at once. This was truly a very big gesture.

However, Ye Chen himself was not short of money, nor did he care about money.

What he cared about was Song Wanting's safety and future.

In Ye Chen's heart, Song Wanting's status was second only to his wife, Xiao Churan.

He didn't know exactly why, but he just felt that this girl, Song Wanting, was truly a woman who was impeccable.

He was not only compatible with her, but also their temperaments and styles of doing things were quite compatible.

Calling her a soulmate was not an exaggeration.

When he drank with Song Wanting before, he also heard Song Wanting confide in him, knowing that her life experience was quite pitiful. As a girl from a big family, she didn't even have the power to decide her own marriage in the future.

So he also hoped that Song Wanting could become the head of the Song family.

In this way, no one could force her to do things she didn't want to do in the future.

Ye Chen said seriously: "Old Master Song, please rest assured, from now on I will definitely ensure Wanting's personal safety."
