Su Xiufeng’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Her mind went blank and it took her a long time before she bitterly smiled, "They are really heartless."
Su Zhenguo now hated Song Ting for being ruthless and also hated Su Xiufeng for being foolish.
Upon hearing this, he turned the conversation and incessantly blamed Su Xiufeng, each sentence stabbing at her heart.
"They are heartless? Are they as heartless as you? It was you who wanted Song Ting’s life before."
"If it were me instead of Song Ting, who is timid, you would have been torn to pieces long ago."
"Goddammit, not only are you heartless, but you’re also stupid. If you hadn’t done that thing back then, wouldn’t we be free of all these troubles now?"
Su Zhenguo felt helpless and dared not go outside to meet people, staying at home and furiously scolding Su Xiufeng over the phone.
Su Xiufeng silently listened, not hanging up, but her usually stern face gradually shifted from sadness to a fierce resolve.
She clenched her fist, suddenly stood up, and calmly said into the phone, "Go ahead and keep scolding, I’m hanging up now."
After speaking, she hung up the phone, coldly smiled, and drove to the Song Family’s Medicine Garden.
At this time, the living room of the small villa in the Song Family’s Medicine Garden was lively.
Don’t get me wrong, there were no celebrations or parties.
It’s just that without Su Xiufeng, everyone was much more relaxed and freely expressed themselves, which was exceptionally satisfying.
Song Ting had sent away Su Xiufeng’s confidants in the morning.
He didn’t make it hard for them or dock their wages.
Song Ting was always generous and never took out his anger on the innocent.
Although these people might not be innocent, he was in a good mood now and just wanted them out of his sight, with no desire to do anything else.
Fortunately, Su Xiufeng’s confidants were either her personal servants or managers, which didn’t disrupt the production work in the Medicinal Garden.
Everyone thought that Su Xiufeng, who had taken most of her belongings, wouldn’t come back.
After all, the things she didn’t take weren’t worth much.
So when she drove here alone, everyone was extremely surprised.
Except for Song Ting, no one paid attention to her.
Song Ennian, Song Enzhi, and Song Enyu didn’t even look for an excuse, they just coldly hustled upstairs.
Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue didn’t leave, quietly sitting on the living room sofa with Song Ting.
Song Ting didn’t want to bother with Su Xiufeng either.
But didn’t he need to know the reason for Su Xiufeng’s visit?
He asked indifferently, "What are you here for now?"
"There’s still some stuff I haven’t taken."
Su Xiufeng responded indifferently and went straight to her former bedroom.
Song Ting and others hadn’t yet touched her room, and it was still as she had left it. She squinted her eyes, coldly smiled, quickly packed some items, then locked the bedroom door and lain down on the bed to rest.
Song Ting and the others thought she really came back to take her stuff, so they left her aside and gathered on the third floor to talk.
As night fell unbeknownst to them, and when Meng Chuyue called everyone for dinner, Song Ting asked Ah Zhong, who had just been promoted to butler, only to find out that more than three hours had passed and Su Xiufeng still hadn’t left.
Song Ting thought for a moment, then instructed Ah Zhong, "Go ask her."
Ah Zhong knocked on the door a few times before it opened.
Su Xiufeng, looking embarrassed, said, "My mother gave me a pair of jade earrings, and I can only find one; I can’t find the other one anywhere, please let me look a bit longer."
While saying this, she showed the jade earring she held to everyone.
Song Ting recognized that it was indeed the earrings given to Su Xiufeng by the late Old Madam Su and nodded, "Alright, take your time."
Su Xiufeng whispered a thank you, gently closed the door, locked it, and lay back on the bed, coldly chuckling to herself from time to time.
As it grew dark after dinner,
Song Ting called for Ah Zhong to inquire about Su Xiufeng’s situation and found out she still hadn’t left.
Annoyed, Song Ting couldn’t help but say, "Go ask what’s going on again, and if she still can’t find it, bring people to help her look."
