Chapter 89 A Trap for Parents



What excited Song Ziqing the most was that the two of them, who had searched for Tang tri-colored pottery on the black market all day without success, found a whole box of them at the last garbage collection station, and each one was in excellent condition.

The two were overjoyed and immediately put them into their ring space.

That evening, after returning to Hong Kong, Song Ziqing counted the Tang tri-colored pottery and found that there were five of them.

They decided to conduct a blood test in front of their parents.

The two men took out needles, one for each of them, and dripped blood onto the Tang tri-colored pottery.

In no time, the two of them finished dripping the blood.

In front of their parents, the two of them used one of the Tang tri-colored pottery pieces to try and see if they could get back to their hotel in Xi'an.

This time, the two were not disappointed; Lin Chengyu's guess had come true. They successfully returned to their hotel in Xi'an, which filled them with immense excitement and joy.

Upon returning to Hong Kong, Song Ziqing urged his parents to try it too, dripping their blood onto Tang Sancai pottery to see if they could also travel to other cities like them.

The parents hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to give it a try. They also hoped to experience this magical way of traveling and see the scenery and culture of other cities.

Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu watched as their parents dripped blood onto the Tang tri-colored pottery, their hearts filled with anticipation and nervousness.

They hope that their parents can also successfully travel through time and go to the places they want to go.

However, several minutes passed, and the Song couple did not disappear like them.

Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu felt somewhat disappointed and worried; they didn't understand why their parents had failed again.

"Dad, Mom, did you not drip blood on the Tang tri-colored pottery?" Song Ziqing asked.

“We’ve all used the drops, so why isn’t there any response?” the parents answered in unison.

"That's strange. Why can we do it, but you can't?" Lin Chengyu asked in confusion.

"Could it be because you are not the owners of Tang Sancai?" Song Ziqing suddenly thought of a possible reason.

“It’s possible, after all, you were the ones who found these Tang tri-colored pottery pieces,” the Song couple said.

"Let's try again. This time, let's drip blood together and see if we can succeed," Lin Chengyu suggested.

So, Song Ziqing, Lin Chengyu, and their parents dripped their blood onto the Tang tri-colored pottery once more. They held each other's hands tightly, hoping for a miracle. However, this time they still failed.

"It seems we really can't travel through time like you," the Song couple said helplessly.

“It’s okay, Dad, Mom. We can buy our own private jet in the future, and then we can go wherever we want,” Song Ziqing comforted her.

“Yes, we can go by plane or by boat. Transportation is so convenient these days,” Lin Chengyu added.

“Great! Let’s take a family trip together during the summer vacation. My husband and I bought a French estate when we were studying in England, but we haven’t been there in so long. I wonder if the housekeeper there is responsible!”

As soon as Song Jingwei finished speaking, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu were both curious. Song Ziqing asked directly, "Dad, was that manor also bought by your predecessor? How come my predecessor didn't know about it?"

"That manor was bought by my predecessor, together with the Song family in France. When the Song family went to Taiwan, my predecessor was worried about the safety of his family, so he didn't tell them about the manor and handed it over to the butler and the Song family to keep an eye on it."

Even though Song Jingwei trusted the general environment, he never thought of entrusting his family's safety to others. He still prepared several backup plans for his family.

The HSBC bank deposits in Hong Kong, the manor in France, and the warehouses and cellars in the Shanghai villa were all backup plans arranged by the Song couple for their own family.

Of all the French estates, the ones that left the deepest impression on Song Ziqing were vineyards. Thinking of this, she asked directly, "Dad, is the estate at home a vineyard?"

Zhang Lihua looked at her daughter with admiration: "Ziqing, you are so smart, you guessed it so quickly! We valued the wine because of its quality; the longer it is stored, the more valuable it becomes for collection."

Even if we don't go abroad for several years, having the butler store all the wine in the cellar will greatly reduce the workload on the estate. As for the other crops on the estate, it's very simple—just a large field of lavender—we can just sell it directly to the Song family's perfume company!

The reason we have so much money—hundreds of millions—at HSBC in Hong Kong is partly due to the regular annual remittances from our French estate.

By the way, your father and I still have a lot of my dowry stored in a Swiss bank; they're all jewelry passed down through our Zhang family.

As the sole heir of the Zhang family, I actually have quite a dowry. The furniture and such are stored in the courtyard in Hainan, while the rest of the jewelry is deposited in a Swiss bank. We'll have to go to the Swiss bank sometime to withdraw my dowry.”

Zhang's family immigrated to Britain during the Republic of China era and became Chinese. She met Song Jingwei during her university years. After working in Britain for several years, her parents fell ill and passed away. She then left Britain, where she had grown up, with Song Jingwei and went to the motherland that her parents had mentioned in their early years. She changed her nationality and became a Chinese.

Zhang Lihua has never regretted changing her nationality, but she and Song Jingwei never imagined that the two of them, already in their forties, would have to be sent to the countryside to suffer.

The couple in her previous life tragically died in a remote mountain village in Yunnan, and their only daughter was also murdered at a young age. Now, Zhang Lihua feels quite sorry for her family.

After listening to what the Song couple said, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu were filled with admiration for the couple's past. The couple had a strong sense of crisis, but they felt that they had not raised their daughter well!

If you don't raise your children well, they'll be a disgrace to their parents!

Of course, Lin Chengyu was actually tricked into going to the countryside by Song Ziqing's predecessor.

However, judging from the Lin family couple's attitude towards him, even if he wasn't tricked into going to the countryside with Song Ziqing, he would be abandoned by his parents sooner or later, since the Lin family still had two children who were favored by their parents.

The policy at the time was that every family had to send one child to the countryside as an educated youth, and the Lin family was no exception to this fate.

When faced with a choice between three options, Lin Chengyu was always the one who was rejected!

Sometimes, he seriously doubted that he was actually the son of the Lin couple; otherwise, they wouldn't have ignored him so much.
