Chapter 360: Song Tingchen is jealous of Lu Zhiheng
He pursed his lips tightly, feeling extremely embarrassed.
The most embarrassing thing is not that Song Xiao did so many bad things.
Even at such a young age, he already doesn't care about human life.
He did something wrong, but he still wanted others to die.
It’s not that Old Madam Song is already very old, but she is also different from the kind mother in his memory.
Song Tingchen thought that his mother should be the kind of open-minded old woman who would take care of herself when she was poor and help the world when she was rich.
Later he found out that it was all just his imagination.
But he never imagined that his mother, after becoming rich, would be even more mean-spirited than those cruel and arrogant rich men he met when he was a child.
But these are not reasons for Song Tingchen to feel embarrassed.
What made him feel most embarrassed was that the ones who made things difficult for Uncle Liu and Uncle Huang were his mother and his children.
But he saved Uncle Huang and Uncle Liu.
It turned out to be Lu Zhiheng.
It doesn't matter who it is.
It happened to be Lu Zhiheng.
Why did it have to be Lu Zhiheng...
Song Tingchen felt nervous and even breathing became difficult.
In fact, he and Lu Zhiheng did not have such a deep hatred.
It can even be said that the two people have no grudges against each other.
But as soon as he saw Lu Zhiheng, Song Tingchen's heart was filled with anger.
That surge of violence tore at him repeatedly, and would not stop until he was torn into pieces. Especially every time he saw Lu Zhiheng and Su Tan standing together, the darkness and resentment in his heart had nowhere to vent, and it poured out and spread uncontrollably.
He hates, he is jealous, he resents.
Especially when Lu Zhiheng's daughter Lu Suisui could get Su Tan's tenderness and protection without any effort, the malice in his heart surged out like a tide.
He wanted to hate and resent.
But I don’t know whether to blame Lu Zhiheng or Su Tan.
Should he even blame Lu Suisui, who was only three years old but could easily take away all the charm of Su Tan?
Even Song Tingchen himself found it both funny and ridiculous.
Especially now, he dreamed of things he shouldn't have dreamed of, and learned all the secrets Su Tan had hidden in his heart.
Song Tingchen had heart pain.
He finally realized slowly that all his criticisms and sarcasm towards Su Tan were based on his inner poverty, empty soul and inferiority.
So the better Su Tan treated him, the more selflessly she treated him, and the more she treated his family members, the more dissatisfied he became, and the more he felt that she had ulterior motives. He always wanted to tear off her disguise and see what she was thinking.
Even—Song Tingchen lowered his eyes.
He even pushed Liu Qingyin in front of Su Tan just for the sake of gambling.
He bet that Su Tan would go crazy with jealousy, and would bare her fangs because of the fear of the appearance of another young and beautiful woman, just like those women in the inner house, who would do anything to win their husband's favor, fighting and killing.
Okay, even if Su Tan is not doing it for me.
Then he has another bargaining chip.
He and Su Tan's son Song Xiao.
In this world, mothers are always willing to give everything for their children.
He thought that if Su Tan saw his own son being so close to another woman, she would always feel heartbroken, and would always regard Liu Qingyin as an opponent in order to make him and his son regret.
Only Su Tan competed with other women for him.
Only then could he be sure that Su Tan stayed with him for no other reason than for him, Song Tingchen.
But Su Tan didn't.
She neither argued nor fought.
She never took Liu Qingyin seriously.
She doesn't want Song Xiao, nor does she want him.
She was so cruel and heartless, she just turned around and left without any courtesy.
She didn't care whether he lived or died.
I don't care about Song Xiao either.
Song Tingchen's heart seemed to be torn to pieces, his complexion turned pale, and blood seeped from his throat. The contents of his dream that he dared not recall once again surged into his mind like a curse, entangled him madly, and wanted to annihilate him.
"Tsk, why is General Song silent?"
Old Liu saw that Song Tingchen remained silent and thought that this man was really funny.
To be honest, if he had known that he was Song Xiao's father, Old Liu would never have gone to the trouble to save Song Tingchen.
Before he went to the Song family, Song Xiao still felt that people like them who came from poor backgrounds deliberately caused his father to fall into a coma, and then used some means to become his father's savior, just to get into the Song family.
Song Tingchen's lips turned pale.
"It's my mother and Xiaoxiao who have let you down. I'm here to apologize on their behalf."
At this point, Song Tingchen didn't know what to say.
He had nothing to say except to apologize.
It was his mother and his son who had let these two people down.
It was Lu Zhiheng who saved them.
Song Tingchen felt a sense of unwillingness and resentment in his heart.
He has always protected his mother and his son.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt resentment towards these two people.
He blamed his mother and Song Xiao for making their Song family the clown that served as a foil to Lu Zhiheng.
He blamed his mother and Song Xiao for making Lu Zhiheng laugh at him so many times without his knowledge.
Song Tingchen seemed to realize at this moment why Emperor Qinglong originally wanted to reward Song's mother with an imperial edict, but ultimately did not give it out.
He even told Song Tingchen that at the moment, Old Madam Song was not worthy of the status of a noble lady.
At that time, Song Tingchen wondered if it was because his mother was of humble origin and his own military achievements were not outstanding enough for the emperor to ignore them.
He never doubted Emperor Qinglong.
He just felt that as a monarch there were many things he needed to consider.
Perhaps Emperor Qinglong did not want the wives of those noble and aristocratic families to think that Old Lady Song, who came from a humble background, dared to be on equal footing with them.
But now think about it, it seems that the period when Emperor Qinglong was unwilling to grant the imperial edict to Old Lady Song should have been not long after the events that Old Huang and Old Liu mentioned.
Song Tingchen was both amused and confused.
It turned out that it was not because of Madam Song's poor background that Emperor Qinglong was unwilling to grant her an imperial edict.
It turned out that it was because Old Madam Song had actually had someone beaten to death in the street.
If Lu Zhiheng, the biggest playboy in the capital, had not shown up that day, I'm afraid Old Huang and Old Liu would have really become two corpses.
After hearing Song Tingchen's apology, Lao Huang and Lao Liu frowned tightly, feeling that this man's words were strange and made them feel uncomfortable.
"snort!"
"We can't afford your apology!"
"We're already at the city gate. Go down on your own!"
"I didn't expect that after all the efforts to save someone, I ended up saving someone like you. It's really bad luck!"
Old Liu snorted coldly, "How dare Song Tingchen get off the ox cart?"
Song Tingchen felt too embarrassed to stay and just jumped off the ox cart and bowed solemnly.
His brows seemed to be covered with thick frost and snow, and his look of melancholy could not be shaken off.
He apologized to the two old men in Santong and also apologized to them, but the two men felt that they had done their best by sending him here, and no longer wanted to talk to him, let alone pay attention to him.
Old Huang and Old Liu turned and left.
Normally, when they came to the city, they should go buy some things.
But with Song Tingchen around, they felt unlucky and couldn't help but think of what happened that day.
I really don't want to meet a playboy like Song Xiao again.
Lao Liu and Lao Huang went back.
The road was not easy to travel on, but the two of them did not encounter any obstacles and had a smooth journey.
But after returning home, Lao Liu found something hard under the mattress, which poked him.
He turned over the mattress and found a jade pendant that looked very valuable hidden inside.
There was a piece of paper on top of it.
Perhaps because they were afraid that he wouldn't understand, there were no words written on it, only pictures.
But the meaning of the picture is very clear.
Thank him for saving my life.
Old Liu frowned. He felt it was unlucky and wanted to throw the jade pendant away, but then he thought again that he was saving Song Tingchen.
What's wrong with accepting the jade pendant from someone for saving my life?
