Chapter 312: Chapter 312: Slap and then Offer a Sweet Date

Song Yunuan smiled with satisfaction, "Since I’ve already gotten involved in Second Young Master Zhong’s affairs, I’m definitely going to see it through to the end. You two have ignored many things in the past, but that won’t do anymore. If you really want to dig your own graves, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, I can pull you back. Do you believe me?"

Adah nodded eagerly, "We believe, we believe."

To tell the truth, ever since they set foot on this piece of land, although it wasn’t as dazzling as Xiangjiang with its bright lights and wine, here they didn’t have to worry about losing their lives. It was truly safe.

They also felt a kind of peace that had been missing for a long time.

Neither of them was in their teens anymore; they were both in their thirties, and naturally, their thoughts had changed.

After being hit with a stick, they needed to be offered a carrot.

Song Yunuan lowered her voice and said,

"Let me be frank with you. Before Second Young Master Zhong inherits the fortune, he will stay here, and your boss won’t come in person because he’s got his own issues. As for what those issues are, I know, but it’s not convenient for me to tell you.

Furthermore, Second Young Master Zhong has a strong immune system and should be able to regain his senses before the inheritance and smoothly take over the fortune. You’ve seen that he doesn’t have anyone reliable by his side right now. If you genuinely repent and sincerely help Second Young Master Zhong, becoming his right-hand men, three years from now, you’ll have a respectable status and job, a loving wife and children, and live a normal life.

Even if none of the above can be realized, starting from now, as long as you do nothing to betray Second Young Master Zhong and nothing against your conscience, I guarantee to provide you with a perfect way out according to your wishes."

Adah and Acheng looked at each other.

Adah took off the collar around his neck, holding it in his hands. It was indeed made of iron, not playdough.

Adah said, "Sister Nuan, Acheng and I will not do bad things again, but from now on, we promise to be loyal to Second Young Master Zhong."

Song Yunuan told Adah, "When Second Young Master Zhong is recovering, you guys can play ping-pong to liven up your body and mind, and read newspapers when you have nothing to do..."

The two nodded in agreement.

All their money was with Uncle Xiao Dizi. Adah was given a small allowance for daily expenses.

They still operated on a coupon system here.

Most of the expenses were paid to the hospital.

The vice president of the hospital, Ho Wensu, was Old Mr. Ji’s top disciple.

Raised like a son.

Not long ago, he was studying abroad and had just returned.

Exceptionally busy, he brought Song Yunuan quite a few delicious treats and then had not been seen since.

Song Yunuan was not sure about their relationship.

However, she felt that leaving Second Young Master Zhong here should not be a concern.

She talked with the recovering Zhong Shaoqing for a while, reminding him to keep Adah and Acheng in check.

Second Young Master Zhong nodded, seriously assuring Song Yunuan that he would focus on his recovery.

After Song Yunuan left, he stood in front of the window with a calm expression, motionless for a long time.

Adah and Acheng stood behind him, also holding their breaths as if they were.

Adah’s prompt agreement stemmed mostly from a bit of fear of Second Young Master Zhong.

It wasn’t fear of his madness, but his incredible capacity for restraint. How did he manage it?

Neither he nor Acheng could do it.

They joined forces about five years ago, and at that time, Second Young Master Zhong was already mad.

A fifteen-year-old boy, yet so profoundly scheming.

How could they not fear him?

Now he had escaped and could recuperate in peace. Their boss was obediently transferring money.

Just as Song Yunuan said, there would be no problem with Second Young Master Zhong smoothly inheriting the fortune in three years.

So he and Acheng weren’t going to do anything as foolish as seeking their own deaths.

Not only would they not seek their own deaths, they would also learn to be good people, to be useful to the Second Young Master.

Song Yunuan had now been settled.

She strolled leisurely in the direction of the Wutong District.

This part of the road was rather peaceful, not as bustling as it would be decades later. In fact, it was somewhat deserted now.

The most lively places were the workers’ compounds and mixed residential areas.

Even if it wasn’t bustling, there were still people coming and going—it was only relatively quiet.

Song Yunuan walked slowly.

Not far away, Old Master Gu, who had been lambasted by Old Mr. Ji to the point of spraying blood, left the Ji family in a huff. He and Old Mr. Ji had argued until they ended up dredging up grievances of many years past.

They dug up the past until both of them ended up crying.

In the end, they parted on bad terms.

Old Master Gu, feeling uncomfortable in his heart, didn’t take a car but instead had his driver and security follow behind. The area was quiet, so as he walked slowly, he also tried to calm his emotions.

Meanwhile, as Song Yunuan walked, she was stopped.

The ones who stopped her seemed to be a mother and son.

The elderly lady was about the same age as her own grandmother, dressed neatly and cleanly. The other, a tall and thin man, both looked at Song Yunuan with eager eyes brimming with tears.

Song Yunuan glanced to the right where there was a narrow alley. The sky had darkened, but it wasn’t yet time for the streetlights to come on.

Song Yunuan paused in her steps, looking puzzled at the mother and son who had stopped her.

She searched her memory, and as far as she could recall, neither the Qin family nor the Song family had any relatives in Beidu.

She didn’t recognize them either.

The next moment, she was unexpectedly embraced by the old lady, who then began to weep bitterly, cursing, "You naughty girl, what did I even do? Your mother doesn’t favor boys over girls; she loves your brother but cares about you just as much.

Your dad feels the same, it was just a deep-fry stick, how could you run away over a little anger? Your whole family hasn’t eaten all day and has been out looking for you. You’re so pretty; if a trafficker kidnapped you, I couldn’t go on living. You have to know, I raised you from a baby. Niuniu, come home with grandma. I won’t let your mom scold you, let’s go..."

Despite her age, the old lady was thin but surprisingly strong.

She pulled Song Yunuan towards the alley.

The tall and thin man did the same, grabbing Song Yunuan by the other arm, tearfully complaining, "How can you not grow out of this habit of running away from home when you’re upset? Don’t you know your mom has been searching the entire city for you? She’s even stopped worrying about your brother. Why can’t you understand? Come home with dad, your mom and I promise we won’t scold you again."

Dozens of passersby had come and gone.

They all stopped in their tracks and began to watch the commotion.

Not far away, Old Man Gu heard the noise and squinted his eyes, walking over with his hands behind his back.

No matter the age, everyone tends to enjoy a bit of commotion.

Old Man Gu was no exception.

In the blink of an eye, Song Yunuan had been pulled over ten steps by them.

The old lady even turned back to the crowd and said, "This is my granddaughter Niuniu. You see, she got angry this morning because her brother got the deep-fry stick and she didn’t, and after I scolded her a bit, she ran off. Her father and I have been looking all day, and never expected to find her here..."

Song Yunuan glanced at the crowd, most of whom seemed to believe the words of the mother and son.

Someone said, "Young girl, it’s nearly dark. You should hurry home with your grandmother."

"Yes, you can’t just run off because you’re upset. What if you run into bad people?"

"My neighbor’s daughter is the same, always fighting over food with her brother. Whenever her parents scold her, she accuses them of favoring boys over girls."
