When Song Qingchun and Su Zhinian arrived at the hospital, Cheng Qingchong had just come out of the surgery room. The woman was wheeled out of the room, still unconscious.
When she heard Su Zhinian say that there was plenty of blood, Song Qingchun had prepared for the worst, but she really didn’t expect the worst possible outcome to become reality. Cheng Qingchong had a miscarriage.
Perhaps because they were both mothers-to-be, when Song Qingchun saw the pale Cheng Qingchong attached to the drip, she felt incredibly saddened. However, beyond feeling sorry for Cheng Qingchong, she couldn’t help but envision this tragedy happening to herself. Right then, Song Qingchun’s conviction towards the decision that caused her to have a row with Su Zhinian earlier only heightened.
…
When Song Qingchun and Su Zhinian received the news, Qin Yinan, who was in the middle of his meeting at Shanghai, also received the news. He abandoned the meeting completely, didn’t even return to his hotel, and took the last flight of the day to return to Beijing.
When Qin Yinan reached the hospital, it was already night. Cheng Qingchong, who woke up in the late afternoon, had already fallen back to sleep.
…
That day, Song Qingchun and Su Zhinian waited at the hospital for Qin Yinan to arrive before they left. Before leaving, Song Qingchun called Qin Yinan to the side to console him. Qin Yinan said that he was fine, but Song Qingchun could see how sad he was.
However, no matter how sad he was, he didn’t blame Cheng Qingchong one bit. When she woke up, it was he who took the extra effort to comfort her. When she heard what he had to say, Cheng Qingchong’s tears fell.
Qin Yinan assumed that she was crying for her lost child. He raised his hand but hesitated in midair. Eventually, his hand fell on her back as he patted her lightly to comfort her.
Cheng Qingchong’s tears fell even more. She croaked out a soft, “I’m sorry.”
“You shouldn’t apologize to me; it was an accident. It’s not your fault.”
Cheng Qingchong wailed, and her hands that hid underneath the cover gripped into fists.
Her apology was not for the child that wasn’t there to begin with but for another one of her lies.
…
On the way home, Song Qingchun brought up her plan again to Su Zhinian. As she expected, it was vehemently rejected by Su Zhinian. They got into another argument.
However, in the end, like all the arguments they had had and would have, it was Su Zhinian who went begging Song Qingchun for forgiveness, and it was he who compromised.
…
The plan went even more smoothly than Song Qingchun expected.
Song Empire had a new product line launching in Hong Kong in April, and Su Zhinian left for it on April 3rd.
The man who had kept a low profile was caught by the media at Beijing Internal Airport on the day of his flight.
Beijing in April welcomed in a new spring. Many girls on the street put on the dresses that had been put to rest for almost half a year.
On the second day Su Zhinian had left for Hong Kong, Song Qingchun left home early in the morning in her car. She was alone, wandering through the business centre of Beijing. It was around noon that Song Qingchun realized someone was tailing her.
