Chapter 141: The Song Chuchu Then And Now

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Song Chuyi muttered for a while and said softly, “I’ll show you a beast when you’re back.”

“I’m not talking to you anymore; you’re too disgusting.” She couldn’t outtalk him. Changqing’s views on life were destroyed. She really couldn’t understand—wasn’t Song Chuchu supposed to be aloof? How did he become like this? Or was he always like that and was just normally acting pure?

Changqing hung up the phone and Song Chuyi didn’t call back again. She tried to sleep for a while more alone but couldn’t fall asleep and wanted to sneak out to eavesdrop on the pair’s conversation. However, if she was caught, it would be extremely awkward. But that man looked like a fiend—would he be rough to Ruan Yang?

The more she thought about it, the more worried she became. Changqing opened the door secretly and before she could take a look outside, Ruan Yang’s voice came from outside. “What are you doing?”

Changqing took a few steps back from shock. Her heart almost jumped out of her throat. “You’re done? Has he left? I wanted to take a sneak peek—I was afraid that man would hurt you.”

“That didn’t happen.” Ruan Yang sighed with difficulty. “However, I didn’t have the ability to chase him away. I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you.”

“Do you mean he’s going to stay and travel with us?” Changqing was in a daze and was angry. “Is he shameless or what? Say, why would he want to tag along with two women travelling together?”

Ruan Yang lay on the bed silently and looked at the ceiling.

Changqing rarely saw her like this and was a little anxious, “Ruan Yang, are you still unable to put him down? If you really decided to break up, I will chase him away. If you still… want to reconcile, forget it. I won’t force you.”

Ruan Yang remained silent once again. There were some things she wanted to say but didn’t know where to begin. Perhaps deep in her heart, she still couldn’t give up on Xin Ziao. However, Xin Ziao passed the videotape to Song Chuyi which proved he really didn’t like Zhao Zhu, but could they really be together just because Xin Ziao liked her?

“You’re not talking again.” Changqing understood what it meant. When Ruan Yang stayed silent, it meant she still couldn’t give him up. It was true that she didn’t like that man, but she couldn’t hold Ruan Yang back and force her to swallow her feelings.

A faint, bitter smile flashed past Ruan Yang’s beautiful face. “It’s not that I don’t want to talk about it, but I don’t know where to begin. Xin Ziao is Dong Chen’s Vice-chairman and his father is a famous philanthropist and entrepreneur. Who am I? My nude photos are all over the internet—how many families can accept someone like me? Changqing, it’s true that I’m popular and there are times I forget about these past events too, but it seems like as a focal figure, others are afraid you’ll be happy and will constantly bring out your entire ugly and dark past. It’d be even harder for Xin Ziao’s parents to accept me than scaling the sky.”

Changqing could faintly understand. Seeing Ruan Yang like this made her heart ache badly. She had always been envious of Ruan Yang, but actually, Ruan Yang was still unable to walk out of the shadow of her past. It was true—if it were her, she wouldn’t even dare to do it. Perhaps the Ruan Yang she imagined was way too tough or perhaps she thought of things too simply because it hadn’t happened to her.

“Ruan Yang, don’t be so pessimistic.” Changqing couldn’t hold back and reached her arms out to hold Ruan Yang. “Anyway, you’re very good in my eyes. No matter who it is, nobody can satisfy everyone. True, there are people trying to defame you, but at the same time, there are also people who admire you. You should think of it this way—you aren’t as rich as the Xin family, but you’re richer than most people. You’ve never needed to worry about money and your status is very stable now too. You don’t need to rely on people and you can enjoy success in the industry. What is the Xin Family? What are Xin Ziao’s parents? Why should you bow down to them? You don’t owe them a living. If they look down on you, then forget it… We have to put our attitude forward. Say, how many women could live like you? If I were you, I’d definitely live willfully and rashly. Look at Duoyao—she isn’t as popular or as stable as you, but she’s still leading a fulfilling life. Then there’s me—even though I’m just a half-popular host, there are still people scolding me on the internet.”

“I’m different from Duoyao; we walked different paths.” Ruan Yang didn’t know whether she should cry or laugh from Changqing’s consolation. However, she had to admit that what Changqing said made sense. Perhaps she was becoming more and more sensitive because she cared too much about Xin Ziao.

“Forget it, don’t be upset. I won’t chase him away.” Changqing spoke as she held Ruan Yang’s hand, feeling her heart ache.

Ruan Yang closed her eyes and held her hand back, saying softly, “Actually, Xin Ziao saw me climb out from the mud. That year when I shot my nude scene, he was a friend of the investor. Everyone watched by the side with colored lenses except for him. After the scene ended, I was hiding awkwardly in the blanket and no one gave me clothes. It was him who passed me a jacket respectfully at a time when I needed someone to protect me the most.”

Changqing was in a daze. So it was like that. How helpless must Ruan Yang have felt then?

Perhaps she detested Xin Ziao a lot, but to Ruan Yang, he always had something to made her heart beat.

“Ruan Yang, do whatever you want, as long as you’re happy.” Changqing watched her while feeling terrible. “As long as he treats you well, I won’t object, but if he doesn’t treat you well, I won’t agree to it no matter what.”

“Silly.” Ruan Yang pinched her nose.

At this time, the sound of the door knocking came from outside. The two looked at each other for a while before Ruan Yang climbed up to open the door. Xin Ziao was standing at the door. “What do you girls want to eat? I’ll get breakfast.”

“… I’m fine with anything.” Ruan Yang looked at Changqing. “What do you want?”

“Don’t tell me you can get everything I want to eat?” Changqing raised her eyebrows.

Xin Ziao looked disapprovingly at her and wanted to throw her a line like “Wishful thinking,” but when he looked at Ruan Yang’s expression, he tried to restrain himself and said, “I’ll try.”

Changqing rolled her eyes. “I want to eat seasoned millet mush, prawn dumplings made from Zhanjiang prawns, cinnamon porridge, soup dumplings, dandan noodles…”

Xin Ziao watched her for a while before turning his head. He said, “There’s none of that; I’ll get the hotel to send some food over.”

After that, Xin Ziao left.

Changqing pounded the blanket while staring hatefully at him and wanted to badmouth Xin Ziao. However, when she saw Ruan Yang holding back her laughter, she didn’t hold it in and said angrily, “You still dare to laugh.”

“I find it quite funny.” Ruan Yang couldn’t hold back.

Changqing snorted. “This boyfriend of yours really doesn’t know how to curry the favor of your friend. I can only give him a 0.”

“If he knows how to curry my friends’ favor too well, I might still be a little worried.” Ruan Yang made eyes at her. “Your Song Chuyi also has that attitude towards me. Do you want to sleep? If not, you should wash up.”

It was only then that Changqing got up and went to the bathroom.

About half an hour later, the hotel staff sent breakfast over and placed it on the long table in the villa’s courtyard. The table was filled with all kinds of Japanese, American, Turkish and European breakfasts.

Changqing’s mood improved slightly after seeing that and she ate a half-boiled egg. It was delicious.

“Where do you girls plan on going?” Xin Ziao asked coldly as Ruan Yang picked up her chopsticks.

Ruan Yang didn’t say anything. Changqing shook her eyebrows. “Shopping. Do you want to come along?”

Men hated shopping the most. Indeed, Xin Ziao frowned immediately but he still nodded. “That’s fine too. I’ll pay the bill for whatever you girls want to buy.”

Changqing pressed her lips together. “I don’t need you to pay the bill; my husband gave me money.”

Xin Ziao curled his lips and leaned on his chair, but he picked up the cup of coffee before him and took a sip gracefully. “Song Chuyi has always been very generous to women.”

Changqing’s expression changed slightly. “You’re talking as though you know him very well.”

“Not bad. We’re just junior and high school classmates.” Xin Ziao seemed as though he was chatting randomly and his smile was like cold water.

The moment Changqing heard that she started to feel curious. She had never seemed to know anything about Song Chuyi’s past. Thinking back to the time he fought, his actions looked as if he fought often. Besides, what did Xin Ziao mean when he said that Song Chuyi had always been very generous towards women? Could it be that Song Chuchu had started dating since his junior and high school days?

She looked gloomily at him. Xin Ziao turned the coffee cup in his hand and laughed. “Speaking of which, Song Chuyi was very popular with girls since junior school…”

“Xin Ziao…” Ruan Yang gave him a warning glare. She knew how sensitive Changqing was and would never allow anyone to harm her friend.

“Ruan Yang, let him continue.” Changqing took a deep breath and told herself not to take it to heart. Anyway, they were matters of the past. Now, she was already married to Song Chuchu. Besides, who hadn’t liked anyone when they were studying? She was no exception.

Xin Ziao looked at Ruan Yang’s expression and locked his gaze at Changqing again, saying meaningfully, “You might think that Song Chuyi is great now, a doctor with high morals, treating the ill and saving people. He wasn’t like this in the past. He was a ruffian in our school from head to toe.”

Changqing suddenly understood why Song Chuyi was so good at fighting. “Then… you just said that he was well-liked by many girls. Did he have a girlfriend?”

“Girlfriend?” Xin Ziao laughed. “Quite many. He could have multiple in a semester…”

“Alright, enough,” Ruan Yang interrupted coldly.

Changqing also lowered her head and didn’t probe further.

For some reason, she found it a little hard to accept the Song Chuchu from back then.

She liked the present Song Chuchu more.

“Changqing, he just likes to scare people; don’t take it as the truth.” Ruan Yang eyed Xin Ziao before he said calmly, “I was teasing you.”

Changqing looked at Xin Ziao’s dark and handsome face expressionlessly and could faintly feel that Xin Ziao didn’t seem to be kidding.

In front of this table full of breakfast delicacies, she seemed to have lost her appetite from Xin Ziao’s words.

After breakfast, the three of them shopped around the island. Changqing and Ruan Yang walked in front holding hands while Xin Ziao followed behind. Whenever Ruan Yang saw something she liked, Xin Ziao would forcefully take out his card. Changqing felt a little envious watching from the side. Although Song Chuchu gave her money, he wasn’t by her side. If only he was there too.

Indeed, travelling and all that should be done either as a couple or with friends. The worst scenario was going as a trio, with a couple among them.

Luckily, on the second day, the three went back to Singapore from Sentosa. They played for a day in Singapore and booked a flight back to Northern City that night.
