So, everything could be explained perfectly now. The answer was on her lips, but Song Qingchun only managed to utter out several ‘so’s without proceeding to state the obvious.
In the end, it was Su Zhinian who pointed out the obvious with a chilling voice.
…So, there is 99 percent that it was Fang Rou who killed Song Cheng!
As the confirmation left Su Zhinian’s lips, a black veil fell over Song Qingchun’s eyes, and she fainted.
…
When Song Qingchun woke up, it was already midnight, and she was at the hospital. The room was quiet, and Su Zhinian was leaning against her bedside with his eyes closed, probably asleep from fatigue.
Song Qingchun only moved slightly before she woke up Su Zhinian. He checked on her with concern before pushing the call button on the wall. Several minutes later, a group of doctors rushed into the room.
Song Qingchun’s condition was fine. She fainted because of the combined stress of the pregnancy and the sudden revelation. Now that she had woken up, the doctors said that she could return home to rest. However, Su Zhinian was too worried and chose for Song Qingchun to rest for one more night at the hospital for observation.
Su Zhinian first gave Song Menghwa a call to report Song Qingchun’s safety before flipping open the heat-insulation box to feed Song Qingchun. Song Qingchun heard from Su Zhinian that Song Menghwa still did not know about Fang Rou. She agreed with Su Zhinian’s decision to temporarily hide the information from Song Menghwa; she was afraid that the shock might push him over the edge.
Su Zhinian also told Song Qingchun that he had contacted the police and the public safety department to investigate Fang Rou. After dinner, afraid that Song Qingchun might fixate on the unnecessary, Su Zhinian found many light topics to chat with her until she fell asleep.
The second day, before Song Qingchun was discharged from the hospital, Su Zhinian had her go through many different medical checks, and after confirming multiple times that she was fine, they finally left the hospital.
The traffic in Beijing at eleven in the morning was slow. The sun of the new spring was bright and warm, and many flowers by the roadside had started to peek their heads out to welcome the New Year.
Song Qingchun knew, for the sake of her child, it was unwise to focus on Fang Rou. Furthermore, Su Zhinian had already promised that he would definitely apprehend Fang Rou, but on the way home, she still couldn’t help but say,
Just how did I not realize that the culprit has been by my side all along? Thinking back on all the kindness Fang Rou has shown me over the years, I cannot help but shiver…
Song Qingchun only got half-way through her words before she felt her hand being grabbed by a warm and powerful hand. She stopped and lowered her head to see Su Zhinian’s hand holding hers tightly.
She froze at that image for a while before raising her head to look at Su Zhinian. The man happened to turn around to look at her.
Don’t worry, I’ll protect you…
Song Qingchun didn’t expect he would need to live up to his promise in less than one minute after he said that.
…
The incident happened one second after Su Zhinian said,
I will protect you.
As Song Qingchun’s heart warmed from his words, her face broke into a smile. However, right about then, out of the corner of her eyes, she saw a car rushing at them from the opposite side of the road…
