Chapter 372: Listening to the Rain Under the Eaves
When Su Tan said this, his eyes suddenly dropped again.
It seems that I suddenly remembered sad things that I shouldn’t have remembered.
Her eyes were dim, thinking back to her previous life, when Changle was always weak, and she put almost all her thoughts on Changle.
However, as Changle's father, Song Tingchen never felt sorry for his daughter's frail body. Instead, he blamed her for putting all her thoughts on Changle, only caring about making clothes for Changle, and ignoring Song Xiao.
Song Tingchen always believed that Song Xiao was her first child, and she should put all her thoughts on Song Xiao. Even if Changle was weak, she should give way to Song Xiao.
He repeatedly accused her of being partial, believing that she was hurting the relationship between the children.
I never felt that treating the healthy Song Xiao and the frail Changle equally was inherently unfair to Changle.
Sometimes Su Tan would argue with him, but after so many times, he accused her like this every time, and she was too lazy to talk to him. As soon as he opened his mouth, she would turn around and leave.
At that time, Su Tan was too busy taking care of Changle's health.
He was so busy trying to make Changle get better quickly that he never thought that if Song Tingchen had any humanity, he would feel sorry for his frail daughter.
Su Tan was both amused and confused.
Suddenly she glanced at Lu Zhiheng, then looked away.
"Sometimes, not everyone is qualified to be a father."
"Some people, even with their own children, probably wouldn't be as hands-on as Your Highness."
"So even though I knew all this at that time, I never told Your Highness."
Does it matter whether Suisui is Lu Zhiheng’s biological child?
Judging from Lu Zhiheng's character, no matter whether Suisui is his biological child or not, he will not treat Suisui badly.
He does everything by himself, protects Sui Sui as if it were the apple of his eye, and never gives outsiders the chance to hurt Sui Sui.
This is more than many fathers.
At least in Su Tan's opinion, Lu Zhiheng did many times better than Song Tingchen.
It’s just a pity that Changle was unlucky and was born into the Song family.
If Changle had the good fortune to be born in Prince Chen's Mansion, she would surely grow up safely.
Su Tan was thinking this at first, but suddenly a flash of thunder seemed to pass through his mind.
She suddenly thought that in her previous life, Prince Chen's daughter was frail and died before she was three years old.
But this life - every year of this life, in no way can be associated with a frail body.
But Su Tan suddenly felt his whole nerves tense.
She couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, Suisui is in good health now, but you still need to take extra care of her on a daily basis, to avoid..."
She was just giving a kind reminder. After all, in her previous life, Suisui had indeed died at a young age.
But his words hit the spot that Lu Zhiheng feared the most.
Lu Zhiheng turned his head abruptly, his eyes fixed on Su Tan's face. "What did you know?"
Lu Zhiheng heard that his voice was a little difficult.
There was even a hint of anxiety in his voice, even more rapid than the raindrops under the eaves, "Do you know who is going to attack Sui Sui?"
"Yes or no--"
Lu Zhiheng's voice suddenly became anxious and his expression became painful, "Is it him?"
"Could it be that he wants to harm Sui Sui again?"
"He is so cruel and ruthless. It's not enough that he has harmed so many people, but he even killed a little baby girl!"
Su Tan's expression suddenly became shocked.
"Your Highness..."
But at this moment, Lu Zhiheng seemed to have been unable to hear any sound, and his expression suddenly became extremely painful.
He punched the pillar under the eaves, and blood suddenly flowed out from between his fingers, but Lu Zhiheng was completely unaware.
He just smiled bitterly, "I was too soft-hearted. I always thought he wouldn't be so inhumane. No matter what, he should at least give Sui Sui a chance to live. In the end, I was wrong."
Su Tan: “…”
Su Tan didn't know what to say. He just wanted Lu Zhiheng to take good care of Sui Sui and not let Sui Sui follow the same fate as in her previous life.
But suddenly it seemed to touch upon Lu Zhiheng's sad past, causing him to become tense all of a sudden.
Su Tan couldn't help but think too much.
In the previous life, Changle died because Song Xiao helped others to harm his own sister.
What about the death that comes every year?
Could it be that Suisui passed away suddenly simply because he was too weak?
Su Tan's expression suddenly became tense.
She originally didn't want to get involved in these royal secrets.
But she had already lost Changle, and for some unknown reason, she absolutely did not want to see Suisui get into trouble in front of her again.
When Su Tan thought that this time might repeat the ending of her previous life, her heart suddenly tightened, as if a knife tip was piercing her heart.
This kind of pain is almost the same as losing Changle.
Su Tan was shocked, but she didn't have time to think about it. She just kept her eyes on Lu Zhiheng.
She slowly said, "Your Highness, sometimes things have already happened and there is no way for us to escape."
"I always regretted that I wasn't strong enough to protect my loved ones."
"After all, I consider Your Highness my friend. I just hope Your Highness doesn't follow in my footsteps."
