Chapter 568: A Survival Guide for Women in the Old Republic of China (107)
Ten days later, a piece of bad news came back to Hai City - Song Chengjing was ambushed by the GZ army. In order to cover the evacuation of the main material convoy, he was very likely to have died heroically!
As the first person in the Song family to learn the news, Mr. Song's hair turned completely white overnight.
Song Chengjing was the successor that he had spent so much effort to train, but now he had to endure the pain of seeing his child die. He almost fainted.
Although on the surface, Mr. Song once said that Song Chengjing’s personal choice had nothing to do with the Song family, in fact, the Song family had been secretly supporting the revolutionary army over the years.
And now, his grandson has actually died in this war. The hatred in his heart towards the GZ Army can no longer be described in words!
However, at this moment, Mr. Song knew that he had more important things to deal with.
Song Chengjing has passed away, but there is not much time left before his wedding with the girl from the Su family.
Putting aside the deep feelings between the two of them, just considering the reputation, this incident has a considerable impact on Su Xiangran.
Therefore, Mr. Song decided to use his grandson's fault as an excuse to cancel the engagement with the Su family before the news of his death spread widely.
In this way, perhaps the damage can be minimized.
It’s just that someone knew about this earlier than Master Song, and he couldn’t wait to let Su Xiangran know about it.
"Cousin! Are you free today? How about we have dinner together?" Cao Shixun parked the Cao family's car in front of the hospital, leaning against the car door, thinking he was looking very handsome, waiting for Su Xiangran to come out after get off work.
Su Xiangran looked at the people who came to harass her every other day and complained, "Cousin, I see that my uncle is very busy every day. Aren't you busy too?"
"I'm busy too!" Cho Se-hun explained lovingly, "But no matter how busy I am, I can always find time to have dinner with you!"
Su Xiangran took a deep breath and resisted the urge to draw her gun: "Cousin, let me remind you that you have a wife, a concubine, and those confidantes out there. I think instead of wasting your time on me, you can leave the opportunity to accompany them."
After hearing this, Cao Shixun was not embarrassed at all by being exposed. Instead, he had a happy expression: "Cousin, do you know what I feel? Don't worry, as long as you nod, I will immediately break up with them."
"Cousin, what are you talking about?" Su Xiangran felt that this man was really unreasonable. "I have a fiancé. What does it have to do with me how many women you have? I just want to remind you to pay attention to your own woman. Don't even think about other people's."
Seeing that the usually gentle Su Xiangran actually spoke to him like this, Cao Shixun felt very hurt and started to speak without restraint: "What do you mean by someone else's! Are you still thinking about Song Chengjing? Don't you know? He's dead!"
Su Xiangran, who originally didn't want to pay attention to Cao Shixun, looked at him in disbelief and said, "What did you say? It's impossible. He promised me that he would come back."
"You believe that!" Cao Shixun chuckled. "When did a bullet ever have eyes? He didn't want to die. But no matter what happens, it won't change because of one person's will. He is dead."
"I don't believe it!" Su Xiangran said firmly, but her hand holding the handbag was shaking slightly. "Even if you are my cousin, I will never forgive you for making up such a rumor."
After saying that, she no longer cared about Cao Shixun's expression and got into the rickshaw that Song Chengjing had hired for her. However, the moment the car left the hospital gate, her tears flowed uncontrollably.
The rickshaw driver had just heard what Cao Shixun said, and was very upset. He just turned around to look at Miss Su who was crying, and didn't say anything else.
When Su Xiangran arrived at the door of the Su family, she had tried her best to hold back her tears. Before entering the door, the driver suddenly asked in a low voice: "Miss Su, how much is the fare from now on?"
Song Chengjing had paid for the car fare before. If it was really as Master Cao said, then his money in the future...
"I will pay you for the car fare in the future, just like before." After saying that, Su Xiangran walked into the Su family's gate.
The driver finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Su Xiangran thought that today’s blow was big enough, but she didn’t expect to see Mr. Song as soon as she entered the house.
"Grandpa Song, why are you here?" Su Xiangran looked at the old man in front of her and suddenly discovered that this energetic old man now had a head full of white hair and even looked a little listless.
Old Master Song suppressed his grief and said to Su Xiangran, "Xiao Ran! You are very good, but our Cheng Jing is an unlucky person."
Su Xiangran's heart skipped a beat. She understood that Grandpa Song might have already known the news about Song Chengjing.
"Grandpa Song, what are you talking about!" Su Xiangran forced a smile and said, "Brother Jing, it's just a temporary delay. The wedding can be postponed. I am willing to wait for him. He also told me that he will come back."
"Xiao Ran, Cheng Jing he..." Old Master Song suddenly couldn't continue speaking. He understood that separation from life and death is painful for everyone.
