Two pieces of shocking news shook the upper social circles of the Capital, and both of them had to do with the Song Group. All of a sudden, the Song Family, whose influence had been declining in the last few years, was pushed straight into the limelight.

The first piece of news came out shortly after the news that the Xiao Family had found their long-lost eldest son had come out. It was said that this eldest son was dating the second son of the Song Family, Song Xuanhe. The two of them were very much in love and had only reluctantly decided to be apart, because Xiao Yuanmu had to go establish his company abroad. Therefore, when Xiao Yuanmu had said that he was dating Song Xuanhe during the first interview he had ever accepted as the eldest son of the Xiao Family, everyone in the upper circles of the Capital began to re-evaluate the Song Family's status. This was especially because Xiao Yuanmu, who didn't usually speak much, had expressed his appreciation and admiration for his boyfriend many times. It felt like he had been purposely shoving PDA down their throats.

The second piece of news was deeply connected to the first piece. However, it had a heavier effect on the Song Family than the first had. The Xiao Family had already formally announced the time and date of Xiao Yuanmu's welcome back banquet. They had also sent invitations to the most influential families in the world and families with whom they had close ties to. Only three families in China's Capital received an invite: one was the Guan Family—with whom they were connected to by family; one was the usually lowkey Zhang Family, and one was the Song Family, who outwardly seemed to have no place amongst the eight major financial groups.

People in the circles had all been shocked upon hearing that the Song Family had been invited. Although Xiao Yuanmu had revealed his relationship with Song Xuanhe during that formal interview, it still didn't have much to do with the rest of the Xiao Family. Even though no one knew much about the eight major financial groups, there was one thing they knew well—the Xiao Family head had never been gay.

The fact that the Xiao Family had sent an invitation to the Song Family was indeed something to mull over.

This was a public declaration that they approved of their long-lost son's boyfriend. They were also discreetly saying that there was no hope for Xiao Yuanmu to succeed the Xiao Family.

Everyone had their own thoughts and conjectures. As the centre of this storm, many waves also billowed within the Song Family.

When the Song Family had heard about Xiao Yuanmu being the long-lost son of the Xiao Family, the Song Family had mostly felt shocked and at a loss. After all, Song Xuanhe had called Xiao Yuanmu in front of their faces in the past. The two of them had been cold to each other and hadn't acted like a couple at all. Since they had already broken up, even if they wanted to use this relationship for their own benefit, they couldn't.

Therefore, except for Song Guochao, whose expression got worse with each coming day, only Song Jiabao, who became increasingly more afraid as the days passed, cared about the sudden change in Xiao Yuanmu's identity. Everyone else had already been shocked by Xiao Yuanmu's company. As such, they weren't as surprised to hear this new piece of information.

However, Song Xuanhe didn't change his story. He still insisted that he and Xiao Yuanmu had already broken up, that they no longer had anything to do with each other.

At this point, it was no longer just Song Guochao who didn't believe him. Even Song Yansong and Li Nianan doubted whether he was telling the truth or not. After all, they all knew about what had happened between him and Xiao Yuanmu at the beginning of their relationship. If it wasn't because they truly liked each other and were still together, why would Xiao Yuanmu publicly announce that they were dating in such a prolific magazine interview at such a crucial moment in time?
