Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1045: Chapter 1045: Sending the Rest of My Life from Afar (39)

”...If it weren’t for me, would you be where you are today?”

Song Yanran finally dropped this sentence.

No matter why that man wanted her back then, the final result was that because of her, Song Chuzheng was able to go.

Why is she treating me like this now?

”Finished talking?” Chuzheng’s voice showed no fluctuations: ”Then answer my question.”

Song Yanran didn’t expect that after speaking for so long, the other side had no reaction whatsoever.

It was as if her punch had landed in a cotton ball...

”I...”

Song Yanran gasped, the sudden pain made her instantly lose her voice and unable to cry out.

Pain...

It hurt so much...

Song Yanran felt like she couldn’t breathe, giving her a feeling of impending death, as if the Grim Reaper was beside her, one misstep and she would fall into Hell.

No—

No!

She didn’t want to die.

”I don’t know...” Song Yanran screamed: ”Yu Kai just told me to bring him here, I don’t know anything else.”

Song Yanran only knew half of Yu Kai’s plan.

But Yu Kai promised her that as long as she used her face to lure Yu Jin here, the Song Family and she would benefit.

-

Song Family Villa.

Mother Song kept checking the time, her face full of anxiety.

Mother Song nudged Song Boxue beside her: ”Why hasn’t Yanran come back yet? It’s so late, could something have happened to her?”

”She’s a grown adult, she knows how to protect herself.” Song Boxue replied with some impatience.

Mother Song immediately became unhappy and shouted: ”Are you her father or not? Your daughter hasn’t returned so late, and you’re not worried, just staring at that broken phone of yours. Yanran’s health isn’t good, she rarely returns so late, what if something happens.”

Song Boxue was annoyed and had a headache: ”I’ll go look for her, okay!”

”Ha, what do you mean by that, Song Boxue?” Mother Song grabbed Song Boxue: ”From your attitude, you don’t care about your daughter at all, do you?”

”I didn’t mean that.”

”Of course you meant it. You’ve been absent-minded lately. Do you have someone outside?”

”What nonsense are you talking!”

”Nonsense? Then what have you been up to lately, huh?”

Song Boxue was also irritated and lost his temper: ”What do you know, being a housewife? There’s so much going on at the company, do you think I have it easy every day?”

Mother Song and Song Boxue started arguing directly.

”Sir, Madam, Miss... Miss...”

The servant suddenly came in and pointed to outside the door.

The sound of arguing abruptly disappeared, Mother Song’s angry look not yet gone: ”What happened to Miss?”

Without waiting for the servant to answer, Mother Song rushed out through the main door.

Song Yanran was tied to a tree outside the villa; she didn’t appear injured, but she was already unconscious.

Mother Song was so frightened she almost fainted, and it was Song Boxue who came out in time, had Song Yanran untied, and quickly taken to the hospital.

The doctor diagnosed excessive shock, there were injuries on her body, but they were not serious or fatal.

Song Yanran soon woke up.

Seeing Mother Song and Song Boxue, it was as if she saw humanity again.

”Mom, Dad!”

”Yanran, oh.” Mother Song’s face was full of heartache: ”My precious daughter, you’ve suffered.”

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Song Boxue spoke up once they cried enough: ”Yanran, who did this to you?”

”Yes, Yanran, how did you end up like this?”

”Mom, it’s all...”

Bang!

The door of the hospital room was pushed open, a tall and handsome man entered from outside with a serious face.

Song Boxue was surprised: ”Young Master Ling, you...”

Song Yanran saw Ling Xu, thinking he had come to see her knowing she was hospitalized, and immediately showed a grievance: ”Brother Ling Xu.”

Ling Xu’s face was as calm as water, with a shadow of gloom that couldn’t be dispelled.

Song Yanran felt a pang of fear.

”Uncle and Aunt, please step outside. I have something to discuss with her.”

Ling Xu had been coming and going from the Song Family frequently, and his relationship with Song Yanran wasn’t hidden.

He wasn’t bothered by what happened to Song Yanran, and Song Boxue and Mother Song naturally liked him.

Moreover, by associating with the Ling Family, the Song Family could have good days ahead.

Song Boxue pulled Mother Song away, leaving the hospital room quiet, steeped in a strange atmosphere.

”Brother Ling Xu...”

Song Yanran called out cautiously, her voice filled with grievance, looking pitiful and making it hard for anyone to be angry.

Ling Xu clenched his fists: ”Are you involved with Yu Kai?”

Song Yanran’s pupils widened a bit, and her heart thumped like a drum. She hurriedly retorted: ”Brother Ling Xu, what are you saying? How could I be with him...”

Unable to continue, Song Yanran bit her pale lip.

Ling Xu took a deep breath and smashed something in his hand.

”Song Yanran, how long are you going to deceive me?”

Song Yanran looked at what had been spread before her, the little color left in her face immediately drained, and her brain buzzed.

They were photos of her with Yu Kai...

Every single one.

Clear enough to see the expression on her face.

Some were ambiguous, others were not.

Who took them?

Who gave them to Ling Xu?

Ling Xu’s anger was hard to conceal: ”Song Yanran, Yu Kai forced you, and you still got involved with him? What are you thinking? Were you willing that day after all!”

Saying this, Ling Xu’s face showed a hint of shame and sadness.

He bore immense pressure to be with her.

But she repaid him with such an outcome.

Song Yanran was in a state of panic; disregarding her body, she got out of bed and grabbed Ling Xu’s arm: ”Brother Ling Xu, Yu Kai threatened me, I had no choice, he had something on me, Brother Ling Xu...”

Ling Xu shook off Song Yanran’s hand.

Song Yanran, unsteady, staggered back two steps and fell onto the cold ground. For an instant, Song Yanran felt her whole heart had sunk into the cold lake bottom, freezing her, unable to think.

Starting to tremble, she stumbled towards Ling Xu.

She had the illusion that if she couldn’t hold onto Ling Xu, she would really be finished.

”Brother Ling Xu...”

Ling Xu shook her off again: ”Don’t touch me!”

Song Yanran stared at him in a daze, her face full of hurt: ”Brother Ling Xu, you don’t believe me.”

Ling Xu looked at her, feeling a moment of softness.

But thinking about what he had seen, revulsion surged in Ling Xu’s heart again, unable to stand being touched by her.

This is what she was like...

Deceiving him.

Treating him like a fool, turning him around in circles.

He retreated, leaving a USB stick: ”Song Yanran, you disgust me.”

Ling Xu left without looking back.

”Brother Ling Xu!!”

Ling Xu stormed out angrily, leaving Song Boxue and Mother Song feeling strange but more worried about Song Yanran.

On entering, they saw Song Yanran slumped on the ground.

”Yanran, Yanran, what’s wrong.”

”What happened?”

”Yanran? Yanran!”

”Doctor, doctor!!”

Song Yanran fell into unconsciousness again, and doctors and nurses rushed in, the hospital room became chaotic.
