Gentle and radiant history graduate student vs. Cool, charming, and de...
In early October, Jiang Yiyu was originally scheduled to go to Nancheng to discuss matters with Jin Beisheng. However, before leaving, when he had already booked the tickets, he suddenly received a message from Jin Beisheng saying that he had something urgent to do and they would see each other after the holiday.
Jiang Yiyu was quite happy and relaxed, and decisively refunded the ticket.
He thought that during this rare holiday, he should go out for a walk with Song Shengsheng and experience the beautiful scenery of the motherland.
But before he could decide where to go, Song Ming sent him a request for help from the martial arts world.
There was no way out and his travel plans had to be put on hold.
On the day Song Ming brought Wen Jing and Wen Jing's parents to the Song family's old house to discuss the marriage, Jiang Yiyu and Song Shengsheng were also called back early in the morning.
The two sat on the sofa in the corner of the living room, listening to the elders discuss things like betrothal gifts, dowries, and guest lists. It was so frustrating that their heads were about to explode. In the end, they came to the same conclusion with rare decisiveness: this wedding was not a must.
Song Ming and Wen Jing also thought so, but due to Song Ming's status as the eldest son of the Song family and the future pillar of the family, his wedding was more about business, connections, socializing, and the reputation of the Song family.
In Wen Jing's words, even the melon seeds in this wedding exude the flavor of capital.
Song Shengsheng and Jiang Yiyu smiled at each other, secretly feeling lucky that they didn't have to bear such a heavy responsibility.
After a day of discussion between the parents of both sides, the wedding was basically settled.
In the evening, the two families sat together for a meal. After the meal, in order to show their hospitality and also at Song Ming's request, the whole family divided into several cars and went to Mingyuan together.
After settling the elders, Song Shengsheng, Jiang Yiyu, Wen Jing and Song Ming sat together in the pavilion in the backyard, drinking wine and chatting about life.
Song Shengsheng spoke very little and most of the time just listened to them quietly. She found that Song Ming and Wen Jing had great differences in their values. Wen Jing believed that career and making money should always come before enjoyment, and she could decisively give up love for her career.
Song Ming didn't understand this at all. He asked, "If you don't know how to enjoy life, what's the point of making more money?"
Wen Jing said, "That's because you've never worked diligently for years, day and night, and still couldn't afford to buy a house for your parents. You've also never encountered someone who had to humble themselves and look down on people for opportunities and resources. You haven't seen much of the fickleness of the world. You've never been short of money, so you definitely don't understand the importance of working and making money."
Song Ming retorted: "You think I have an easy life..."
The two of them started arguing with each other. Song Shengsheng and Jiang Yiyu were stunned. They looked at each other and hurried to separate them.
The final result was that Jiang Yiyu was accidentally knocked down by Song Ming, and the back of his head hit the pillar hard. Song Shengsheng became anxious and kicked Song Ming's leg. Wen Jing was frightened and the two stopped arguing.
Song Shengsheng reached out and touched the back of Jiang Yiyu's head where he was hit and found a big bump. Wen Jing was also frightened. The three of them drove Jiang Yiyu to the hospital overnight.
The next day the test results came out, showing a mild concussion.
Jiang Yiyu lay on the hospital bed, looking at Song Ming and Wen Jing who were still blaming each other, and sighed. He took Song Shengsheng's hand and whispered pitifully: "My dear, I have a headache. Can you let them go out? It's so annoying."
Song Shengsheng nodded with heartache and drove away Song Ming who refused to leave and Wen Jing who was not at all worried about Jiang Yiyu.
But before the ward could be quiet for long, the elders came again. Wang Jing held Jiang Yiyu's hand, shed a few tears, and kept saying "My poor child"...
It wasn't until the afternoon that all the visitors had left. Song Shengsheng sat by Jiang Yiyu's bed, looking at his hopeless expression, and couldn't help laughing out loud: "Brother Yiyu, have you had Mercury retrograde lately?"
Jiang Yiyu also sighed deeply: "I deserved it last night for meddling in their business. From now on, I won't care what they do, no matter how they act. I finally got a few days off and was able to relax. Now, I'm in the hospital."
He looked at the ceiling and sighed again: "I don't know who I have offended. When life is difficult, who has it harder than me! After the holiday is over, I have to go and have a good talk with Jin Beisheng. If all else fails, I will find a temple to worship and receive enlightenment from the master. This is too unlucky."
Song Shengsheng patted his head and said, "You're almost done, right? If praying to Buddha was useful, how could your partner, Mr. Jin, still not get his wife back? It's obviously not very useful."
Jiang Yiyu thought for a moment, then turned to look at her: "You're right, he's a serious negative example. So, tell me, how can I avoid bad luck?"
"Just wait until Mercury retrograde passes."
"You still believe this?"
"I don't believe it, but I can't think of any other words to comfort you."
"All right."
After a moment of silence, Jiang Yiyu sat up and took a sip of water. "I was wondering, do you think Song Ming and Wen Jing are really suitable for each other?"
Song Shengsheng laughed and said, "You're an interesting person. You just said you didn't care about them, but now you're worrying about them again. If you have time to spare, you might as well think about the mess you're dealing with! Uncle Jiang, Zhao Rong, and Jiang Yicheng haven't shown up in a long time. And your partner is busy chasing his wife every day. Is he reliable? Don't look back, you'll be screwed again."
"No, he must be reliable!"
Song Shengsheng sighed: "I hope so. You'd better know what's going on."
After a few days of observation in the hospital, Song Shengsheng completed the discharge procedures for Jiang Yiyu and took him home to recuperate.
