Chapter 318: No Compensation, Keep Going
Chapter 318: No Compensation, Keep Going
Bai Ge and Song Yingtang were both taken away on suspicion of intimidation and extortion, and Song Yinyin was also arrested.
Song Qingtian gave her statement before finally leaving the police station.
All the evidence pointed to one thing: Bai Ge had committed murder.
If convicted of murder, she could face life imprisonment—or even the death penalty.
It all depended on how the judge would rule.
Moreover, Song Haichao’s car accident didn’t seem so simple on the surface; it would require careful consideration and further investigation.
More verification was needed.
Interrogation.
As the victim, Song Qingtian had to leave.
Before departing, Song Yinyin shouted angrily, “Song Qingtian, I won’t let you off the hook!”
Song Qingtian turned around and said, “I’ll be waiting.”
With that, Song Qingtian walked out as if nothing had happened.
Yang Yifan had been waiting outside. Seeing Song Qingtian approach, he said, “Young Madam.”
“Mm, let’s go back. It’s getting late.”
Song Qingtian got into the car with Yang Yifan, a bit resigned. “I thought I’d run into them—father and daughter—here, but it looks like General Ling has already taken Nuonuo home.”
Yang Yifan didn’t know what to say.
This was terrifying!
Uncle Lin drove the car and first took Yang Yifan back to his residence.
Once they got out of the car, Yang Yifan’s mind was in a complete mess.
Watching Song Qingtian drive away, he didn’t turn around for a long while.
He really couldn’t understand what was going on in this world.
Ever since the young madam woke up, everything seemed to have turned upside down.
Song Qingtian went back with Uncle Lin.
Before they even reached home, they saw Ling Hanyu standing at the door, holding their daughter Nuonuo and waiting for Song Qingtian.
They got out of the car, and Uncle Lin drove straight into the house.
Song Qingtian took the child in her arms, kissed her, then looked at Ling Hanyu and asked, “How did things go?”
Ling Hanyu was dressed in a pair of Western-style trousers and a shirt, making his waist look especially slender and straight.
Today he had deliberately changed his clothes and waited at the door—but Song Qingtian acted as if she hadn’t even noticed his new outfit, and moreover…
She kissed the child but didn’t kiss him.
Ling Hanyu looked rather unhappy, his eyes fixed on Song Qingtian.
He just wanted to know: if he didn’t say anything, when would Song Qingtian realize that he had changed his clothes—and that he was in a bad mood?
But in the end, Song Qingtian stood there for a long time, holding the child, then turned to look at Ling Hanyu.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Ling Hanyu wore an expression of displeasure. “Nothing much.”
“If nothing much, why aren’t you saying anything?”
Song Qingtian stepped closer to Ling Hanyu.
Ling Hanyu had originally planned to play dumb for a bit, but as soon as Song Qingtian drew near, he lost control. His hands reached out involuntarily and pulled her into his embrace.
With Song Qingtian held tightly in his arms, Ling Hanyu lowered his gaze to her rosy lips and planted a quick kiss on them.
“From now on, you’re not allowed to only think about the child—you have to treat everyone equally!”
Song Qingtian was completely baffled. “When have I ever failed to treat everyone equally? Besides, what’s the big deal about you and the child anyway?”
After saying this, Song Qingtian turned to Ling Nuonuo. She really missed her daughter.
“Nuonuo, have you missed Mommy today?”
Ling Nuonuo nodded eagerly.
“Mommy, Nuonuo misses you so much! Nuonuo even brought you something delicious!” Ling Nuonuo looked at Song Qingtian with great joy.
Song Qingtian was thrilled. “What delicious thing did you bring? Mommy’s actually pretty hungry right now!”
“I’m not telling you—let’s go see together!”
“Okay!”
Song Qingtian hugged her daughter and headed toward the dining table, while Ling Hanyu followed behind, rubbing his head.
This woman is driving me crazy!
When they entered the living room, Song Qingtian immediately smelled the aroma of boxed meals.
“Huh!”
Song Qingtian never expected that her daughter would buy her a boxed meal—and even think it was delicious.
But whatever her daughter thought of, she loved it.
Song Qingtian carried Ling Nuonuo over to the dining table and sat down. Sure enough, there were two boxes of food.
Aunt Chen stood to the side, unable to suppress her laughter.
“Nuonuo bought these from outside and raved about how delicious they were. We didn’t cook dinner tonight—Mr. and Mrs. have already eaten. This is left for you and Uncle Lin.”
Aunt Chen didn’t know what to say. Who would have thought that Ling Nuonuo would buy them boxed meals?
And she even thought they were the most delicious thing in the world.
Song Qingtian was excited. “Godmother, I’ve made boxed meals for others before—and even pushed a cart to sell them. At my peak, I sold over a thousand yuan worth, and I kept a hundred yuan as commission.”
Aunt Chen was utterly confused. “When was that?”
Aunt Chen couldn’t recall that Song Qingtian had ever made boxed meals after getting married—not to mention selling them, or even eating them.
Could it have been before marriage?
But back then, the Song family was so wealthy, and both Mr. and Mrs. Song were still alive—how could they possibly have let Song Qingtian sell boxed meals?
Yet Ling Nuonuo believed it wholeheartedly, her eyes wide with amazement. “Mommy, you’re so amazing!”
Song Qingtian washed her hands and opened the box, picked up a pair of chopsticks to take a look. “Not bad at all.”
After taking a bite, Song Qingtian nodded. “This is exactly the taste!”
Ling Hanyu stood by the door, watching Song Qingtian eat happily.
Thinking back to the old Song Qingtian, the difference was truly astronomical.
But recalling Song Qingtian’s past, Ling Hanyu couldn’t help but smile.
If it weren’t for those past experiences, she wouldn’t be the Song Qingtian he wanted.
