Chapter 535 Imperfect Product
Cao Yujin\'s voice echoed loudly inside the room, astounding the others, who never knew she could raise her voice to this volume.
"You\'re only saying that because you don\'t want to force Song Yu Han." Everyone knew that Old Patriarch Song has been biased and lenient towards his grandson. Cao Yujin thought that he was only refusing their union because he didn\'t want to force Song Yu Han.
Song Yichen frowned. He shook his head in dismay and said, "Miss Cao shouldn\'t accuse me of lying. Getting the Cao and the Song family united is also one of my greatest desires. Unfortunately, there really is no way out of it, as my grandson is already married."
"Lies. I don\'t believe you! How can Han-ge be married? Why don\'t I know about it? Why was it not announced?" Cao Yujin still refused to believe that the man she vied for so long is no longer available for her picking.
To be fair, not only was Cao Yujin confused and surprised when they heard that Song Yu Han was married, the other people present inside the room, excluding Cao Qing, were even more shocked and puzzled by this piece of news.
Song Yu Han was more like a celebrity or a figure of icon in their socialite world than a real celebrity behind the screens. His appearance did not only make every man feel inferior and women admire it, his presence also overwhelmed most people. That is why whenever there was a party, they will never forget to send one to Song Yu Han, hoping and praying that he would accept and attend.
Regrettably, Song Yu Han seldom attended any party. He was a phantom, no one could get a glimpse of. The only time they had seen him attend a party could be counted by one hand.
Naturally, his marriage would become the trending topic in their wealthy circle and would be talked about for a whole month.
Yet, Song Yichen, the old Patriarch of the Song family, proclaimed that this legendary man was married? Then, why was there no word of it?
Old Patriarch Cao also had the same thoughts as Cao Yujin. Could it be that Song Yichen really was biased towards his grandson and didn\'t want to let him marry his granddaughter?
However, Old Patriarch Cao did not think that Song Yichen would lie to him at this crucial moment that would decide the fate of the two great families in the country.
So, did he lie or did he not lie?
"Father, since when did this happen? Why have we not heard of this?" Song Ruan turned to his father to get answers from him.
He was Song Yu Han\'s biological father and yet, he didn\'t even know that his own son married someone?
"Why did you not tell me? No, why didn\'t you stop him?!" Song Ruan did not understand what his father was thinking about for him to waste such a good business opportunity and allow Song Yu Han marry a wild flower that as an unknown background and identity.
Unlike anyone else, he knew that his father didn\'t lie when he said that Song Yu Han was married. Song Ruan believed his words. But he still couldn\'t understand why did his father let Song Yu Han marry and hid this truth from everybody else?
"I couldn\'t stop him." Song Yichen sighed and said, "Rather, it was his own decision to marry. When I found out about it, they already signed the certificates and has been married for a few months."
To be honest, Song Yichen also wanted to scold Song Yu Han at that time. How could he just marry anyone without even introducing the woman he married to him first? But it was already too late. Song Yu Han arrived at his birthday party and told him that he married Ran Xueyi.
What else could he have done when he found out? Force them to divorce? But at that moment, he didn\'t want to ruin his night and also did not want to destroy the smile that was on Song Yu Han\'s lips.
As his grandfather, no matter what cruel thing he had done in the past, could not bring himself to ruin that smile.
That night was the only time he saw a glimpse of Song Yu Han\'s smiling sincerely.
"In any case, the marriage talk between Song Yu Han and Cao Yujin cannot happen," Song Yichen firmly told them.
Seeing him like this, even if Old Patriarch Cao was unwilling to let go of such a big fish such as Song Yu Han, he also knew that there was no way to force the marriage either. Unless they find a way to make Song Yu Han divorce his wife.
Old Patriarch Cao nodded. "Well, if it true that Song Yu Han is already married, us elders, cannot get in between the harmonious couple."
"Grandfather!" Cao Yujin was not reconciled and certainly did not want to give up on becoming Song Yu Han\'s wife.
"Silence!" Old Patriarch Cao retorted in dissatisfaction before he continued, "Although we cannot force Song Yu Han, the fact that the Cao family has to join hands in the future is still there."
Suddenly, Cao Qing, who was sitting on the side and watching a \'good show\' had an idea.
Grinning, he said, "What about letting Yujin and Yongrui marry then, grandfather?"
"What?!"
"No way!"
Both Cao Yujin and Song Yongrui reacted violently as soon as they heard this.
Cao Qing smiled at the two. "I am merely suggesting it. You two don\'t have to react so strongly like this…"
"But if there\'s really no other way… I think having the two of you marry each other seemed to not a bad idea. Cao Yujin is a talented woman who can help Song Yongrui and the Song family. Song Yongrui should be in line with Yujin\'s aesthetic type, since he is technically half-brothers with Song Yu Han," Cao Qing added harmlessly. "You all don\'t have to take my words seriously, I\'m just saying this because I don\'t want to tire my grandfather from thinking too much."
Cao Qing then stood up and waved to them. "I should go down now. The guest will feel lonely if I don\'t go down while everyone is up here."
After he said this, he left the room without a single glance back, as if what he had just told them did not involve him at all.
However, as lightly as he said these words, it was not so light and simple to other people.
Even now, after Cao Qing left, Old Patriarch Cao was thinking about what he had just nonsensically uttered inside the room, considering it silently in his heart.
Of course, he wouldn\'t say what he was thinking about to them for now.
It could be said that Old Patriarch Cao really educated and took care of Cao Huiling really well as his daughter.
\'Could it be possible?\'
Because at this moment, Cao Huiling was also thinking about the same thing as her father.
Song Yongrui\'s imperfections has been one of her concerns. It was not as if Cao Huiling personally educated and taught Song Yongrui before in his journey to become a great man and contend against Song Yu Han.
However, as if the apple in the tree was rotten from the beginning, Song Yongrui remained as one of her flaws.
As someone who strive to be absolutely perfect in life, Cao Huiling couldn\'t wait to snuff this defect. Sadly, she couldn\'t give birth to another child and could only make do with this imperfect son called Song Yongrui.
But even if she was forced to accept him, will everyone also think the same?
Naturally, not.
Even at this moment, several people are trying to block Song Yongrui from becoming the Song family\'s heir. How could Cao Huiling accept this?
But if her son marries Cao Yujin?
Perhaps, this imperfect product she gave birth to can be saved after all.
