Chapter 84: I even forgot to cry
Song Tingchen frowned and reached out to grab Su Tan's wrist.
Su Tan's eyes suddenly turned cold, he took a step back, and lashed towards Song Tingchen with a whip.
Song Tingchen dodged immediately and was not hurt by her whip.
Su Tan glanced at Song Tingchen with annoyance. "General Song, don't you realize how unlucky you are? You came up to me and started a fight the moment we had a disagreement. Are you dissatisfied with the sword that pierced your heart last time because it wasn't painful enough?"
She looked at Song Tingchen and reiterated, "I really feel unlucky and disgusted when I see you. Song Tingchen, can you please be a human being and stop hanging around me?"
After she finished speaking, her gaze fell on Song Xiao who was being held by Song Tingchen.
"The same to you."
Song Xiao stood there, his face pale for a moment. A trace of resentment emerged in his heart. He glared at Su Tan angrily and said in a vicious voice: "Do you think I want to come?"
"You are a bad woman, old and ugly, and you are not as gentle as Aunt Qing at all. I hate you. I am annoyed when I see you!"
Song Xiao knew how to hurt Su Tan's heart.
In the past, Su Tan devoted himself to Song Xiao, but a casual word from Song Xiao could make Su Tan sad.
But now, when Su Tan heard him say this, his expression did not seem to fluctuate at all.
But after a moment, Su Tan sneered, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
"You look down on me so much, yet you still come all the way to Duke Dingguo's mansion. It seems the Song family has run into some big trouble that you and your father can't solve, and neither can Aunt Qing, who you care about in your heart and eyes."
There was a hint of sarcasm in Su Tan's voice, and his words were not polite at all.
"One is an important official in the court, and the other is young and beautiful. Yet, when you encounter problems, you can only ask me for help. It seems that you are even more useless than I thought."
She said "no" lightly, but it easily made Song Xiao's face pale.
Song Xiao widened his eyes and stared at Su Tan in a daze.
The bad woman now actually calls him useless!
Mingming - Song Xiao's body shook slightly, and his stubborn eyes suddenly turned red.
It is obvious that what Su Tan said most in the past was that Xiaoxiao was the most amazing.
Today I actually scolded him for being useless.
Song Tingchen suddenly emanated a chill. He stared at Su Tan without blinking, and spoke with a hint of frost, "Su Tan!"
"Xiaoxiao is still a child. You shouldn't vent your grievances on him!"
Su Tan looked indifferent.
child?
A child who is indifferent to the death of his own sister?
How could she have such a heartless and cold-blooded child?
Su Tan's eyes swept across Song Tingchen's face, and he suddenly counted with his fingers and smiled.
"I thought you were looking for trouble at the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, but it turns out your mother has been haunted by a nightmare for three days."
"General Song is really interesting. He asks Zhong Wuyan for help when he has something to do, and Xia Yingchun for help when he doesn't. He even doesn't have the attitude of asking for help."
Song Tingchen had a cold face and wanted to drag her away without saying anything. It had been three years since the divorce. Did Song Tingchen still think that she should devote herself to the Song family like before?
That's really funny.
"Song Tingchen, I'm not afraid to tell you, let alone your mother having a nightmare, even if she is dying, I will not visit your Song family."
Su Tan's words were very blunt. Her eyes fell on Song Tingchen. Looking at his dark face, she felt ridiculous and disgusted from the bottom of her heart.
"Of course, you, Song Tingchen, can also ask the emperor for an imperial edict to force me to come to your Song family. But I'm not afraid to tell you that I'm not like I was when I divorced. I was almost half dead from the torture I suffered."
"If you have the imperial edict, I can make the evil spirit around your mother disappear, but will something unexpected happen to her later? Do you dare to bet?"
She looked at Song Tingchen with a smile, not hiding the threat in her words.
She actually couldn't do this, because if a cultivator actively harmed others, he would be punished by heaven and suffer severe karmic backlash.
Otherwise, why would she allow these people from the Song family to disgust her after returning to Beijing for so long?
But Song Tingchen didn't know.
In Song Tingchen's eyes, she was cruel and heartless.
Su Tan didn't mind speaking more harshly, so that he would believe in his heart that she would do anything to vent her personal grudge.
Song Tingchen looked at Su Tan in shock, and was a little surprised for a moment.
If Su Tan insisted on not agreeing, he wanted to go and ask for permission.
His mother has a weird and twisted personality, but she is not a bad person after all.
He couldn't bear to see his mother get into trouble.
However, he didn't expect that Su Tan clearly saw that there was an evil spirit around his mother, but she stood by and watched, and even said that if he dared to enter the palace to ask for permission, she would make his mother die without a burial place.
Song Tingchen just felt that he seemed to have never really known Su Tan.
"Su Tan, why can you just stand by and watch like that?"
Cui Wan listened for a long time and tried to hold it in, but in the end she couldn't help it and scolded Song Tingchen.
"How funny! My junior sister has already cultivated the Way of Mercilessness, so why would she bother with a bunch of scumbags from your Song family? Just stand by and watch? Ha, your mother was destined to die early. If my junior sister hadn't been blind and sacrificed her own luck and merit to ensure the prosperity of your Song family, and even used her dowry to buy medicine for your mother, how do you think she could have lived these extra eight years?"
Junior sister didn't mention these things because she had already cut off her past mistakes, so there was no need to get too entangled with Song Tingchen.
Be it Song Tingchen's guilt or that twisted love that he didn't know whether it existed or not, Junior Sister didn't need any of it.
But Cui Wan just couldn't stand Song Tingchen's self-righteous attitude, as if Su Tan was unforgivable if he didn't rescue Song's mother.
"Who do you think you are? You've been divorced for three years, and you still dare to order my junior sister around. What are you thinking? When you were born, did the midwife rip off your left cheek and stick it on your right? Otherwise, how could the whole family be so thick-skinned and shameless at the same time!"
"And you!" After scolding Song Tingchen, Cui Wan's gaze fell on Song Xiao, with undisguised disgust in her eyes, "The worst thing your mother did in her life was giving birth to an ungrateful person like you!"
When Su Tan was pregnant with Song Xiao, her pregnancy was not good at all. Not to mention the morning sickness that lasted until the birth, during those ten months, Su Tan suffered from insomnia, nightmares, swollen limbs, and was always overwhelmed by various pains.
I thought all women were like this when they were pregnant.
Until later Su Tan became pregnant with Changle.
Cui Wan and Su Tan finally understood that a child who truly loves his or her mother would not want to see her suffer during pregnancy.
Changle was so well-behaved and lovable, but she didn't survive. However, Song Xiao grew up safely until he was eight years old.
"God is really blind."
Cui Wan said indifferently.
These words did not receive any rebuttal from Su Tan.
Song Xiao was trembling, his face was pale, his eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at Su Tan as stiffly as a puppet.
Song Tingchen felt a sense of suffocation for no reason.
After practicing the ruthless way, people will become cold and indifferent, but will they treat their own sons in the same way?
Su Tan hated him, probably because he wanted to marry Qingyin as his concubine, but at that time he just wanted to give Qingyin a chance to survive.
Even if Su Tan was disappointed by Xiaoxiao's words, he should not allow people around him to say such harsh words to Xiaoxiao.
Could it be that - Song Tingchen frowned, could it be that Su Tan was hiding something from him.
And that incident might be related to Xiaoxiao.
Before Song Tingchen could figure it out, Su Tan's sarcastic look was already on his face.
"Song Tingchen, I once carved a wooden sculpture to ward off evil spirits and placed it in your Song family. If your mother had kept it safe, even if an evil spirit followed her, it would never have caused her to fall into a coma."
"But now, why is she like this?"
Su Tan asked slowly.
Song Tingchen's expression froze.
Of course, it was because her things had not been treated well.
Su Tan laughed, "Song Tingchen, you treated me so cruelly that you couldn't even tolerate the things I left behind, yet you expect me to be righteous. Don't you think that's ridiculous?"
After Su Tan finished speaking, he didn't want to say anything more to him, so he turned around and left.
Song Xiao's eyes were red, and a hint of resentment appeared on his fair little face. Just like before, he rushed straight towards Su Tan like a calf.
But this time, Su Tan didn't let him hit her. She dodged sideways. Instead, Song Xiao didn't expect Su Tan to do that. He fell straight forward and hit his elbow heavily on the stone lion in front of Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
"ah!"
Song Xiao's heart-wrenching cries mixed with her sobs seemed to break through the sky.
He cried so pitifully, as if all the misfortunes in the world had befallen him.
But Su Tan, who used to feel heartbroken whenever he shed a tear, just looked at him coldly this time.
She didn't even plan to ask someone to bring Song Xiao back to the mansion to have the palace doctor check him out.
Her eyes just fell on the blood-stained stone lion, thinking that if she had not avoided it just now, she would be the one who fell and had her arm bleeding.
Su Tan suddenly sneered twice and walked away expressionlessly.
Song Xiao felt as if struck by lightning and forgot to even cry.
