Chapter 371: Song Yu hit Jiang Yue
Translator: _Min_ |
As Song Yu entered the villa, she overheard Jiang Yue’s words, and, filled with rage, she quickly approached and grabbed Jiang Yue’s hair, pulling her to the ground.
She slapped Jiang Yue fiercely, her anger boiling over, “You wretched woman, what did you promise me? How dare you try to seduce my brother? I’ll make sure you regret this!”
Jiang Yue, caught off guard by Song Yu’s sudden intrusion, felt a sharp pain as tears began to stream down her face. She looked at Song Ling with a pitiful expression.
Song Yu, noticing Jiang Yue’s gaze, became even more infuriated and slapped her again, “What are you trying to pull here? You…”
Before she could finish, Song Ling pulled Song Yu aside and said coldly, “Enough!”
He helped Jiang Yue up and softly said, “Let me take you to the hospital.”
Jiang Yue clung to Song Ling, managing a brave smile, “Brother Song Ling, don’t be mad at Song Yu. She’s still a child, she didn’t mean it. I won’t hold it against her.”
Hearing this, Song Ling grew even angrier and turned to Song Yu, “Do you really think you’re still a child? You’re grown up now, yet you can’t control your emotions. And who taught you to be so uncivilized?”
Song Yu, listening to Song Ling’s words and looking at the pitiable Jiang Yue in his arms, became even more furious.
She pointed at Jiang Yue, “Jiang Yue is a liar, she…”
Before she could finish, Jiang Yue, feeling panicked, covered her face and cried out loudly, drawing Song Ling’s attention, “It hurts so much, Brother Song Ling, please take me to the hospital.”
Fearing that Jiang Yue might have aggravated a previous injury, Song Ling hurriedly agreed, “Alright, I’ll take you to the hospital now. Hold on!”
Watching Song Ling carry Jiang Yue away, Song Yu stomped her foot in frustration and yelled, “Brother, Jiang Yue is faking it, don’t let her deceive you.”
As she watched the car drive away, she collapsed to the ground, cursing Song Ling in her heart.
Song Ling, she thought, was a fool for not seeing through Jiang Yue’s act.
At the hospital, under Song Ling’s icy gaze, the doctor examined Jiang Yue and wiped the sweat from his brow before speaking, “Miss Jiang has suffered some minor injuries. She should be fine with some ointment and a few days of rest.”
Song Ling was taken aback, remembering Jiang Yue’s exaggerated pain earlier, and asked, “Just minor injuries?”
Jiang Yue glanced at the doctor.
The doctor quickly added, “Miss Jiang has just recovered from a serious illness and was shocked today. She might need psychological support, so it’s important for her family to stay by her side.”
Song Ling nodded and turned to Jiang Yue, “Do you need something to eat?”
Jiang Yue, tears in her eyes, replied softly, “I’d like an apple.”
Song Ling began to peel the apple, his thoughts drifting.
He still couldn’t believe that it had been Jiang Yue with him that night. His mind leaned more toward Gu Dai, the last person he remembered seeing before losing consciousness. But Jiang Yue claimed to have his necktie.
Could it really have been Jiang Yue that night?
Seeing Song Ling lost in thought, Jiang Yue, afraid he might ponder Song Yu’s unfinished words, quickly said, “Brother Song Ling, I’m glad you brought me to the hospital. I was really scared just now.”
Song Ling snapped back to reality and asked, “Scared of what?”
Jiang Yue, seeing that Song Ling hadn’t figured out the inconsistency, sighed in relief and said softly, “I was afraid you would side with Song Yu, she is your sister after all.”
Song Ling comforted her, “Don’t worry, I’m not someone who can’t tell right from wrong. Song Yu has been spoiled by my mother. I’ll make sure she learns her lesson this time.”
Song Ling was resolved to discipline Song Yu. Given her audacity to attack Jiang Yue in his presence, he could only imagine what she might have done to Gu Dai when he wasn’t aware.
Jiang Yue continued to cry, “Brother Song Ling, maybe Song Yu didn’t do it on purpose, she…”
Song Ling cut her off sharply, “Don’t plead for her!”
Jiang Yue outwardly nodded obediently, but a gleam of triumph flashed in her eyes.
At the Gu Group.
Gu Dai, seeing Xu Huan approaching, quickly stood up and took the items from her hand, asking, “Grandma, why are you here?”
Xu Huan smiled, “I was out with Yinyin and saw a lot of delicious things, so I bought some for you..”
