From the moment Song Qingchun decided to meet Cheng Qingchong, she knew that she had to peel open her wounds again. That was why she chose to pretend not to see the call when it arrived. However, in the end, her heart gave.
Certain kinds of pain were so deep that no matter how long it had been, the moment one brought it up, the wound would still feel as fresh as new.
After Song Qingchun said “not meant for me but someone else”, her breath caught in her throat. She did not feel like continuing this conversation, so she grabbed her phone and wallet off the table, blurted out a quick goodbye, and stood up.
Cheng Qingchong saw Song Qingchun’s second attempt at leaving and called out several times in her desperation before she reached out to grab her arm. She would not, could not, believe that her Big Boss merely treated Miss Song as a replacement.
Big Boss only shows his emotions when he is around Miss Song. Big Boss is such an aloof person, his exception being Miss Song. It is as if the kindness he owes the world is all directed at one person. If Miss Song was merely a replacement, would he do that? Furthermore, Big Boss has even done that for Miss Song…
When this thought came into her mind, Cheng Qingchong’s eyes lit up with inspiration. She uttered in a hurry, “Miss Song, do you know that CEO Su almost lost his life to save you?”
Song Qingchun was really getting a bit angry at Cheng Qingchong’s insistence. She reached out to remove the grip on her arm. Cheng Qingchong was afraid that Song Qingchun would escape the moment her grip on her arm loosened, so she yelled out everything that she knew. “Miss Song, do you still remember the time when you were kidnapped and Mr. Qin rushed to save you?”
Song Qingchun’s hands that were prying Cheng Qingchong’s fingers off her arm suddenly halted.
Cheng Qingchong grasped this opportunity to share the truth. “When you and Mr. Qin were on the brink of death, someone appeared to save you, right? Yes, the person who came to save the both of you at the last minute was CEO Su!”
That person… Song Qingchun had been searching for that person, even in her dreams. She wanted to know who it was that had saved her and Brother Yinan’s lives.
She even kept the only evidence that person left at the scene—a button—as a necklace around her neck. Song Qingchun’s mouth fell open, but no words came out. However, the force that she was using to shove Cheng Qingchong off gradually disappeared.
Cheng Qingchong was not physically there to witness how Su Zhinian had saved Song Qingchun and Qin Yinan, but she revealed everything else that she knew. “That day, I was supposed to fetch an important client at the airport, but on the way there, I received a phone call from CEO Su. He had me call Doctor Xia and told me to follow him by tracking his phone…”
“…I didn’t know what happened before that, but when I arrived, CEO Su had suffered a grievous wound on his stomach, and the blood kept on flowing. He was lying by your side, and his breath was fading.”
Cheng Qingchong, who relived the memory in her mind, could not stop her eyes from getting teary.
