1175: An Audio File

An Audio File

Song Zhi was not alone. The same thing happened to everyone else at the banquet hall and their phones started chiming in unison. 1

Although there was light music playing in the background, it was not enough to drown out the phone notification.

Song Zhi kept thinking about the inheritance which Huo Yao had mentioned, so he did not check his phone.

The people standing one to two meters away from them automatically retrieved their phones.

They had received an audio file from an anonymous sender.

Some of the guests thought that it was a scam text and ignored it, but some of them tapped on it.

In an instant, a conversation could be heard on their phones containing shocking news.

"How could Grandpa give 80% of the shares to Ning? Even if we are not in the will, isn't our father his direct heir? How could he end up only receiving less than 10% of those shares? Grandpa's will is simply ridiculous," said a woman enviously.

"Heaven knows," said a man.

"If she owns 80% shares of the company, she will have control of it. Moreover, Ning will get married one day. If she marries into the Ji family with the shares, the company will end up in their pockets!"

"The company belongs to the Song family. It can't go to someone else."

"The lawyer has Grandpa's will. The moment he presents it…"

"In that case, we have to make sure that Mr. Zhou will never produce it."

...

Song Qi's face turned ghastly pale the moment she heard the audio file playing on the phones. She lost grip on her wine glass. It slipped through her fingers, broke into smithereens on the carpet and wine sprayed onto her skirt hem.

She disregarded the wine stain on her dress and turned to look at the guests' phones.

The audio file was still playing back. Her mind went blank when she heard the conversation on the audio file. She was so giddy that her brain nearly exploded.

Why did the guests have that audio file?

Also, it was not just one guest with the file. Every single guest was tapping on it after receiving it on their phones.

In an instant, everyone started to play the audio file in the banquet hall as they gossiped.

"Do you think it's Song Zhi and Song Qi's voices in the recording?"

"Although these voices sound young, it is clearly them."

"I see. Song Ning was driven out of the family because she received such a massive inheritance."

"More importantly, they did not hand the will to their older sister."

"Oh yes. I recall the eldest daughter of the Song family was engaged to the Ji family, but the younger daughter in the family ended up marrying into the family. What do you think happened there?"

The guests gossiped and cast strange looks at Song Qi. Song Qi's face became even paler. She wished that she could teleport and just disappear at this moment.

She was known to be a gentle, sophisticated, and elegant woman in her circles. Everyone felt she had a candid and gracious personality. No one had ever looked at her this way.

Just moments ago, everyone was still talking about Song Ning's daughter. How did things end up this way?

Song Zhi looked equally upset. He did not know about the audio file at all. Even though it was over 20 years ago when he uttered these words, he could still remember them like it was yesterday.

It was the conversation between Song Zhi and Song Qi when they found out about their grandfather's will a long time ago.

Since it never dawned on him to record audio, Song Qi must have done it.

Song Zhi clenched his fists as he raised his head and looked at Song Qi.
