A Girl Traveling Through Troubled Times

"Really? Which high-ranking official? Tell us so we can see it." The lady said sarcastically.

Song Tingting was speechless for a moment.

Suddenly, she broke down and burst into tears, saying to Mrs. Song, "Mom, you see, this is how they talk to me every day."

Gui'er suddenly understood. She had been puzzled before. When Song Tingting and Sha Yanyao first got married, their relationship was actually pretty good. Why did they suddenly become sour and sleep in separate rooms? It must be because the wife was upset about what happened between Mrs. Song and the Marshal, and she was usually sarcastic and harsh to Song Tingting, trying to drive a wedge between the couple.

Song Tingting had been a rich lady since she was little, living a life of luxury. No one had ever given her a cold shoulder, so how could she possibly stand this kind of humiliation? It just so happened that she met that pretty boy among the wealthy ladies, and naturally, she was coaxed into it with a few sweet words. It was indeed foolish, but it seemed like the inevitable outcome.

Mrs. Song glanced at the lady, probably knowing that the relationship was hopeless, so she smiled and said, "It's a new era now, and divorce is normal. In that case, let's part ways amicably."

Then he turned to Song Xichen and said, "Go make a phone call and ask the servants in the hotel to come and pack up. Tingting, watch them pack up and make sure they don't miss anything. Make sure you take everything that belongs to you, okay?"

Then he turned to Sha Yanyao and said, "Master Sha, please release our son-in-law."

He said this definitely to irritate Sha Yanyao and his wife. Sure enough, when they heard it, their faces suddenly turned dark.

Even Song Xichen was stunned and said, "Mother, please don't talk nonsense."

Sha Yanyao said nothing more. He stood up with a cold face and clapped his hands.

The two servants went out of the house and heard a clanging sound outside. After a while, they saw two people dragging a limp person in and throwing him to the ground.

Guier took a closer look and was shocked. One of the man's eyes was swollen like an egg, and his mouth, nose, and cheeks were all bruised. Not to mention whether he was handsome or not, it was impossible to tell what he looked like originally. Moreover, when the two people threw him to the ground, he instinctively used his hands to support himself, but he failed to hold on and landed on his face with a loud "bang".

Driven by curiosity, Guier tiptoed to put down her bowl and chopsticks, and changed her seat in the restaurant, next to the door, closer to the front hall, so that she could see more clearly.

Guier discovered that the direction of the man's foot and several fingers were reversed and twisted. She was feeling strange, when suddenly she realized that the man's fingers and feet must have been broken.

She was very shocked. Although she had seen corpses of people who died violently before, this was the first time she saw someone beaten like this. It turned out that this was exactly what the books said about people being beaten beyond recognition.

When Song Tingting saw this, she screamed in fear and turned pale. Mrs. Song quickly protected her and said to Sha Yanyao, "Who is this?"

Song Xichen frowned and glanced at the man, then said to Sha Yanyao, "Why did you use such a heavy hand?"

Sha Yanyao said coldly, "I don't want to either, but brother, you know, when people are angry, it's easy to lose control of their strength. Tingting is a girl, I can't do it, but this guy should be okay, right?"

Song Xichen sighed.

The man lying on the ground seemed to slowly wake up at this time. He heard their conversation and suddenly shouted incoherently: "Tingting, Tingting, save me!" Then he crawled towards Song Tingting tremblingly, but his current appearance looked a bit like a zombie in a Korean zombie movie.

Song Tingting screamed "Ah" in fear and stepped back repeatedly.

When Sha Yanyao saw it, he couldn't help but burst out laughing. When he looked up, his eyes met Gui'er who was watching with great interest at the dining room door.

"Go to school. You're going to be late."

Gui'er didn't dare to delay, so she quickly grabbed her schoolbag and ran out. When she came to the gate of the yard, Ah Cheng smiled and said to her, "Miss, have you enjoyed the show?" Then he helped her get on the rickshaw that had been called long ago and went to school.

When she came back from school, Dingxiang told her that all of Song Tingting's things had been moved away, including Song Tingting's lover named Brother Hua.

Guier glanced at the empty hall and felt a little strange, but she quickly got used to it.

When it was time to get off work, Sha Yanyao drove his car back with Jinbao. The two of them were talking and laughing. This would be impossible under normal circumstances.

During dinner, the wife said happily, "Now our family can finally relax. We don't have to drag around a burden all the time. That rich girl spends her days drinking and partying, and doesn't help when things go wrong. She's not even worthy of being a family member."

Jin Bao quickly agreed, "Yes, when things go wrong at home, I want to risk my life for them. I only blame myself for not being able to help."

The lady nodded comfortingly: "Good boy."

Then he turned back to Sha Yanyao and said, "Son, now that everything is settled, you need to hurry up with Director Tian. Isn't he going to Shanghai soon? Try to get this done before he leaves."

Sha Yanyao nodded.

After Gui'er finished her meal and returned to her room, Dingxiang brought her some tea. Gui'er asked Dingxiang, "How did their conversation go after I left for school? Did it get ugly?"

Ding Xiang said, "Not really, but this Mrs. Song is really an extraordinary person. Even after all this, she still wants our young master to compensate the eldest young lady, Miss Song, saying that she has at least spent all these days with him and it shouldn't be in vain."

"What did Big Brother say?"

"The eldest young master didn't say anything, but the other young master Song said he didn't need it, and Mrs. Song even scolded him."

"and then?"

"Then, Mrs. Song quickly called someone over to move all of the eldest young mistress's things away. At the end, Mrs. Song was still in the hall, loudly saying that her daughter had never spent any money from the Marshal's Mansion since she married into the family until she left. Every penny was spent from her parents' money. She said that the Marshal's Mansion was too much of an overreaction. The lady and the eldest young master were very upset."

Gui'er shook her head, not knowing which side she should feel speechless for.

Ding Xiang suddenly said, "Miss, please stop worrying about the eldest young lady's affairs. There is something going on right now."

Gui'er didn't understand and said, "What's going on?"

"It's Miss Jinbao. Ever since the eldest young mistress went to the hospital, she and the eldest young master have become closer for some reason. These days, the eldest young master goes to and from get off work with her."

Gui'er felt something was amiss and quickly said, "Don't talk nonsense. Isn't Big Brother going on a blind date with Director Tian's relative?"
