Chapter 360 - Chapter 360 360. The rescue arrives... not too late_1

Chapter 360: 360. The rescue arrives… not too late_1 Chapter 360: 360. The rescue arrives… not too late_1 This sudden shout interrupted the mood of everyone in the courtyard, even halting Mao Li’s crying and wailing, as they all turned their attention to Brother Xiaozhang.

Brother Xiaozhang: …(*GguoiGguoii)

After a moment of silence, Song Tan walked over with a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes and lowered her voice, “Didn’t I ask you to go out and call for Secretary Xiaozu?”

“She’s right at the gate, picking cucumbers in the vegetable garden!”

All Brother Xiaozhang had to do was run out of the courtyard and he would surely see her!

What? Is that what you mean?

Brother Xiaozhang was greatly shocked!

But at this moment…

All he could do was dryly tug the corners of his mouth and say, “I… I’ll go out for a bit…”

Then he stuffed the delivery parcel into Song Tan’s arms and bolted out.

Song Tan: …

Now the pressure was on her.

So she looked at Wang Lifan with her tearful eyes and handed over the delivery parcel, “Dad, someone sent me something… guess what it is?”

Fortunately, Song Sancheng’s nerves were indeed thick, and at this moment he sniffled before falling silent again upon seeing the address from Imperial City.

The awkward one was Mao Li, her emotional outburst now interrupted and unable to continue…

Looking at Song Dafang, his face was also rather unsightly!

Song Sancheng had already quickly unwrapped the package, revealing an elegantly decorated bouquet inside the box.

Bags of dry ice on either side were gently emitting white mist, and upon cutting the ties, the central blossoms could be seen in full bloom with the buds on the sides shyly waiting to open.

Eucalyptus, Yellow Osmanthus, Romance of the Yellow River, Poseidon King, Wedding Path, Madagascar Jasmine…

Of course, with Song Sancheng’s knowledge, he couldn’t recognize all the varieties in the bouquet, but it was certainly good-looking.

This caused him to be stunned.

Then he handed the flowers to Song Tan with a complex expression and asked cautiously and knowingly, “Who sent these? What’s his intention?”

After asking, he felt the atmosphere was getting a bit tense and, fearing that the old man might get too agitated, he hastened to raise his voice, “Dad! Look, someone sent flowers to Tantan!”

Song Youde’s grief was momentarily stayed as he hastily stuffed tobacco into his smoking pipe and began puffing out clouds of smoke to calm down.

So, he decided not to even glance at that unfilial son and also turned to look, “Who sent it?”

Almost everyone in the courtyard had managed to ignore the couple.

Mao Li and Song Dafang had never suffered such humiliation before!

Now that they couldn’t continue their performance, Mao Li just tugged at Song Dafang’s arm, “Let’s go! No one in this family treats us as human beings, so we don’t care!”

The two of them, like strutting crabs, left with peculiar emotions; when passing by Song Sancheng, they glanced at the flowers in his hand, then looked disdainfully at the cause of today’s troubles–Song Tan!

Mao Li scoffed, “All she knows is to fuss over these superficial things, just to attract bees and butterflies!”

How could this be allowed to stand?!

Even if Song Sancheng was naive, he couldn’t let his daughter be insulted like this!

“What did you say!”

He placed the flowers in Song Tan’s arms and then, taking big strides, he rushed out, scaring Song Youde into repeatedly calling out, “Tantan, stop your dad!”

By the time Song Tan also dashed out the door, she saw Song Sancheng had already picked up a piece of broken brick and with a “bang,” he hurled it at Song Dafang’s car windshield!

“Crack!”

With that throw, Song Sancheng shattered the windshield, startling Song Dafang! And startling a person–and a dog–who, unbeknownst to anyone, had stopped their car at the family’s doorstep–

“William! General! The treasure! Surround them!”

The next moment, the car door swung open, and Sun Shouping, like a Great General rushing to the rescue, commanded his three warriors–cough, three large dogs–to tightly encircle Song Dafang and Mao Li!

Then with nervous and wary eyes, he stared at Song Dafang, “Uncle Song, who are these people? Are they here to make trouble at your house?! Don’t worry, my dogs have seen blood! They won’t let them escape!”

Song Sancheng: … That’s not necessary.

…

Surrounded by the three dogs, Song Dafang and Mao Li visibly tensed up.

They weren’t even this scared when the old master was hitting them in the courtyard just now! These three dogs looked plump and strong, their fangs menacing!

Their bite seemed fierce enough to tear through an arm or a leg!

His own father wouldn’t kill him, but a careless bite to the throat from these dogs could be lethal!

Song Dafang was counting on this in his mind!

He said threateningly, “I–you know, dog bites can lead to hefty compensations!”

“No problem.”

Sun Shouping put on an arrogant air, “I’m wealthy, I can afford it. And let me tell you, nobody messes with my Uncle Song, no way!”

He still needed Tantan to charm some Baobao by whispering into their ears–eh, something about that didn’t sound quite right?

Never mind that.

In any case–

He glowered menacingly, pretending to give an order, “Keep a close watch!”

The three dogs growled, their eyes looking even more ferocious!

Song Dafang and Mao Li huddled together, thinking that if they got bitten, this brat, with his dandyish ways, might pull strings to avoid compensation. What could they do then?

He lived a good life in the city, but had nothing to do with the rich and powerful…

Meanwhile, Sun Shouping sauntered over to Tantan and then bent down to ask her in a low voice, “What’s going on?”

Tantan held back her laughter, not rushing to answer, but instead pretended to appraise, “Where did you find these three dogs? Not bad.”

Sun Shouping waved his hand, “They’re from my kennel–their former owners groomed them well. They’ve been on a diet of carefully balanced raw meat and bone, exercising properly every day. They live better than most people!”

“If not for this quality, they wouldn’t be worthy of your family’s dogs!”

Once he started talking about dogs, he couldn’t stop, and he went on and on, “You wouldn’t believe it, they weren’t too keen initially, wanted a dog of equal status for matchmaking–but I sent out videos of your Baobaos! Boy, did they go crazy!”

“They had other engagements and couldn’t make it, so I brought these three over for a meet. I’m going to record a video of the matchmaking later!”

“Shoot whatever you like.”

Tantan leaned in and said with a smile, “The three dogs are surrounding my uncle and aunt.”

Sun Shouping froze.

“Based on how Uncle Song was throwing stones just now, I wouldn’t say there’s a blood relation…”

What a thing to say. Tantan gave him a glance, “There is.”

Even though he was somewhat merciful. Otherwise, why would his grandfather be so anxious?

What he feared was his youngest son seriously injuring his eldest.

Luckily, it was the car windows that got hit.

Sun Shouping stood there, watching as the three dogs crouched low, emitting low threatening growls. He couldn’t help but shake his head, “Your family relations sure are complicated. So, should I still…”

Tantan teased with a grin, “Just hold on a bit, I have sent someone to call the village director.”

“My uncle has gotten a name and a bargain, and he’s still playing the victim here. I’ve got to get someone of status to witness today. Otherwise, he might turn things around later. You tell me, isn’t my family troubled enough?”
