Living With a Temperamental Adonis: 99 Proclamations of Love

“I believe she has to be involved somehow. Think about it, who would drive a truck so fast on a Beijing street‽” Song Qingchun’s eyes chilled. “Fang Rou won’t rest until we’re dead. The woman has lost her mind!”

Song Qingchun pressed her lips and went silent. After a while, Song Qingchun uttered in a surprisingly firm voice, “Su Zhinian, we mustn’t sit idle anymore.”

Even though she didn’t say more than that, Su Zhinian could read the plan that she was formulating in her mind. Su Zhinian shook his head to deny it immediately. “While it’s true that we have to take some action, we needn’t to do it your way!”

“Su Zhinian, you have to admit that my plan is the best plan there is.”

“That might be true, but your plan is also the most dangerous one there is. Think about our child, please don’t be rash! Plus, the police are still investigating…”

“The investigation has gone on for how many days already, and do we have any results? Su Zhinian, I can’t wait any longer. If this only affected me, I could have lived my life a bit more carefully, but like you said, we have our child to consider. If we don’t settle this issue as soon as possible… I’m worried that she might be able to harm our child…”

“Yes, that is true, but Tingting, this doesn’t mean that I’ll be willing to put you in harm’s way!”

“But Su Zhinian, with great risk comes great rewards. I promise I will take good care of myself, and you’ll be there to protect me, right?”

“Even so, it’s still too dangerous, there are too many uncertainties involved… No! I won’t allow it! No way!”

…

Su Zhinian and Song Qingchun argued for a long time, but it was to no avail. Before they came to a conclusion, a call came in.

It was from Su Zhinian’s new secretary. Due to his argument with Song Qingchun, Su Zhinian’s tone was a bit dark. The new secretary was probably spooked because she stammered for a long time before she got the point across. “…Sister Cheng, accidentally fell at the entrance to the breakroom… There’s a lot of blood… and water…”

Su Zhinian’s brows tightened. “Has she been sent to the hospital?”

Song Qingchun, who had her head turned away due to her argument with Su Zhinian, heard the term ‘hospital’ and quickly turned her head worriedly back toward Su Zhinian.

“Which hospital?” As Su Zhinian asked this question, Song Qingchun’s heart fell. Ignoring the fact that they were in the middle of an argument, she quickly asked Su Zhinian, who hung up his phone, “Who was sent to the hospital?”

“Some accident happened to Secretary Cheng.”

Cheng Qingchong? An accident? But she’s pregnant, right? Song Qingchun asked with a frown, “What happened?”

“She slipped and fell; there was plenty of blood,” Su Zhinian said as he stood up to rush upstairs, “…You stay home to rest; I’ll go take a look at the hospital.”

Song Qingchun stood up to follow. “Wait, I’m going with you.”

Su Zhinian glanced at Song Qingchun, and his lips moved. However, eventually, he decided to let this drop and nodded.
