Chapter 320 Headlines
On the third day after get off work, as soon as I got off the bus, I saw two cars parked on the side of the road in front of the military district guesthouse.
Next to the car, there were two figures, one in black and one in red, standing, looking quite confrontational.
There are very few private cars these days. Not only are there two parked here at the same time, but the two people standing next to them are also handsome and beautiful, which is quite eye-catching and makes passers-by look back frequently.
After Su Tong recognized the two men, he hurriedly trotted over to greet them.
"Sister! Song Shaoyang! Why are you here?"
Qin Ran saw Su Tong coming back and waved at her. At the same time, he snorted at Song Shaoyang and said:
"Did you hear that? I'm the real big sister! Don't argue with me, you fake brother!"
"Hey! The eldest daughter of the Qin family! What you said is wrong! You are not even sure if you are the elder sister! You have to pass the test of Mr. Qin first! I am the elder brother and I will take over as your brother!"
Su Tong looked at the two men, who were on the verge of a fight, and spoke carefully:
"Um... what is this situation?"
Qin Ran glared at Song Shaoyang, turned around, opened the car door, took out a bulging bag from inside, handed it to Su Tong and said:
"The clothes that Big Sister bought you are all the latest styles this year. Find a set to change into and we'll go eat!"
"Sister! Don't go with her! I took you out for dinner today! I'm telling you, I'm not against you and Qin Yi, but Mr. Qin only has Lin Jiao in his eyes now. Before this problem is solved, don't lose your principles!"
"You look like a decent person, but how can you be so evil? Is there anyone as bad at marriage as you?"
"Humph! You're being impatient! You've hit me where it hurts! I'm not being mean! I'm giving you advice as a family member!"
"Excuse me, can I invite you two to have dinner together?"
Su Tong asked cautiously.
…
Qin Ran had a good and accurate vision. The bag he gave her contained not only a coat, but also a woolen sweater and woolen trousers, all of which were a complete set.
The effect of wearing it is naturally beyond doubt.
Su Tong happily accepted Qin Ran's feelings.
An hour later, Su Tong, wearing a brand new winter outfit, appeared in the famous "Lao Mo" restaurant in Beijing together with Qin Ran and Song Shaoyang.
Although the two of them still had some conflicts, they accepted her proposal for Su Tong's sake. However, they were not allowed to speak, otherwise they would start arguing within three sentences.
"Lao Mo" is a Moscow-style restaurant and one of the few high-end restaurants in Beijing.
Qin Ran and Song Shaoyang can both afford cars, so going to these occasions is commonplace for them.
Both of them paid close attention to Su Tong, fearing that she might not be able to adapt. However, they were relieved to find that Su Tong was very graceful from the moment she entered the door to the moment she ordered food, and she did not feel awkward at all.
Qin Ran and Song Shaoyang went to see Su Tong. Originally, they each had something to talk to her about, but now it became a threesome, so they had to talk about topics that everyone could talk about.
But after just a few words, smoke of war would inevitably arise. Fortunately, it was a public place, and both of them maintained their composure. Since they could not attack openly, they could only attack secretly. On the surface, they seemed to be chatting and laughing in a gentle and peaceful manner, but in fact, neither of them wanted to lose the verbal battle.
Su Tong fell aside and ate his fill in peace.
But when she came back from the bathroom, she passed by a patch of green plants and accidentally heard a familiar voice.
I say it is familiar because I have been listening to it these past two days.
She tilted her head and looked through the gaps between the green plants. Zhai Yuanzhi was wearing a suit and having dinner with a blonde girl. They were sitting very close to each other and talking as they ate.
Although she was surprised, she had no intention of disturbing him.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard the girl ask him in English:
"Dear! Did you leave Jing City a while ago? I have been looking for you for a long time?"
Zhai Yuanzhi also replied in fluent English:
"I went to Shanghai for a while and just came back! What? Did you miss me?"
"I missed you so much! Can you come to my place tonight?"
…
Su Tong didn't listen any more and returned to his seat.
Unexpectedly, he found that Qin Ran was also tilting his head to look over there, with a look of confusion between his eyebrows.
"Sister, do you also know Zhai Yuanzhi?" Su Tong asked.
"Is it really Zhai Yuanzhi?"
Qin Ran said: "I haven't seen you for eight or nine years. I almost didn't recognize you."
"Oh! You knew him before?"
“Him!”
Qin Ran picked up the goblet, took a sip of red wine, and said, "He was a famous 'chemistry genius' in Beijing back then, and a nightmare for his peers. After graduating from high school, he chose to go to the United States for further studies, but Uncle Zhai wanted him to stay in the country and go to Beijing University. Because of this, the relationship between father and son was once very bad. Unexpectedly, he finally went abroad secretly."
"Unexpectedly, when we were about to graduate, we heard that he had been shot in the United States. His roommates died on the spot, but he disappeared! No one found him alive, and no one found his body! Uncle Zhai's family was deeply shocked at the time, but they had no way to find him since he was far away on the other side of the ocean! Over the years, this incident has been a taboo in their family, and no one dared to mention it."
"Until a few days ago, I suddenly heard that Uncle Zhai's son who had been missing for many years had returned! I was shocked! After so many years of no news, he suddenly came back, it was really unexpected!"
"Sister! Are you saying that he just came home a few days ago?"
"Yeah! My parents were also invited! I heard that the whole family was so happy!"
Su Tong was confused. Did she hear it wrong?
She clearly heard the woman ask him if he had left Beijing a while ago?
He had clearly been to Beijing before, so why did he only meet his family now?
…
But this was someone else's private matter, she couldn't figure it out and didn't think about it anymore.
Although it was Su Tong who invited them to dinner, Song Shaoyang insisted on paying the bill. He said that he couldn't let a woman pay when he was the only man present.
Qin Ran snorted coldly and did not fight with him for it. She just said that she would not eat it for free and would invite him back.
Then, she insisted that Su Tong get into her car and she would take her back.
Song Shaoyang looked at the exhaust from their cars and sighed in silence.
On the way, Qin Ran said to Su Tong, "Don't take the words of the Song family kid to heart. My grandfather feels guilty towards Grandpa Su and can't change his mind. No matter how much he insists, he can't interfere with Qin Yi's decision. Our family is more stubborn, Qin Yi ranks first, and the old man can only be second. Otherwise, Qin Yi would not have gone to the Southwest Military Region that year."
After going through so much, Su Tong would never regard Lin Jiao as an obstacle between her and Qin Yi.
She nodded and said, "Sister, I understand."

Two days later, the news that the country's top medical team was about to represent China to go to France for exchanges made the front page of the newspaper. Su Tong and Zhai Yuanzhi also appeared in the newspaper as the main members of the team.
When the general public saw this news, most of them felt relieved and proud. China has finally begun to take steps towards the world and to prove itself.
However, there are always eyes hiding in the dark, unwilling to see others move towards the light.
Plotting conspiracy secretly.
