"Hey, wake up, wake up, what's wrong? Wake up..."

The phone call ended, and when I called back, it was busy.

I could hear it clearly on the phone; Fang Xingxing was crying the whole time, but what was with telling her not to go back?

Could it be that she was unhappy at her maternal grandmother's house and took her temper out on her? But that doesn't seem right; Fang Xingxing isn't such an unreasonable child.

Song Lingge quickly called her mother, Zhao Jueyu.

"Mom, let Xingxing answer the phone."

"Wake up? She didn't come!"

......

Song Lingge called Fang Guanghua again, but it took a while for him to answer.

"Old Fang, where have you been? It took you so long to answer." Song Lingge was a little angry.

"Honey, I'm in a meeting!"

Song Lingge took her phone away and checked the time: "It's Saturday today, what kind of meeting are you having?"

"Didn't I tell you last time that I wanted to work on a project with Mr. Zhang? We're discussing things at his company right now."

It seems that's true. Song Lingge continued, "Aren't you home? Xingxing called me crying just now. Did you scold her for playing on the computer? When you get back later, you should comfort her. She just finished the college entrance exam and finally has a chance to relax. Let her have fun however she wants."

Fang Guanghua kept saying "okay, okay" to everything Song Lingge said, providing excellent emotional support.

"Honey, Mr. Zhang is urging me to get back, so I'm not talking to you anymore. Have fun, I'll call you again when I get home tonight."

Before Song Lingge could reply, her phone went dead.

I hope nothing bad has happened at home.

Song Lingge suddenly felt a tightness in her chest and a little short of breath.

Just then, Hu Yunxiang came looking for her.

"Minister Hu, I'm so sorry to have troubled you today."

Hu Yunxiang had always been good to Song Lingge. This trip was arranged by her out of kindness. Although she was retired and had no obligation to do so, she still went to the trouble of making the arrangements. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen?

Song Lingge's outburst with Jiang Chunmei was indeed disrespectful.

Hu Yunxiang patted Song Lingge's shoulder: "Jiang Chunmei hit hard, did she hurt you?"

Anyone with eyes can see that Jiang Chunmei was seriously injured this time, and the old minister was implying something about her by saying that the attack was too heavy-handed.

Song Lingge feigned grievance and said, "Minister Hu, you know I'm not one to cause trouble. Jiang Chunmei and her husband are really going too far."

After hearing what Song Lingge said, Hu Yunxiang felt embarrassed to blame her anymore.

Ultimately, it was all Jiang Chunmei's fault for constantly picking on Song Lingge.

And that Du Guohua, he's no better. Even a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow. His wife is right next to him, yet he still goes around flirting with other women right under her nose.

Song Lingge was also unlucky and got dragged into it.

However, she didn't say much, since relationships between men and women were still a rather taboo subject in the eyes of people of their generation.

"Don't overthink it. Just relax and have some fun. I'll talk to them about it."

"Minister Hu, how many more days are we going to stay?"

"What? Is it really like Xiaomei said, that you miss Lao Fang?"

I never expected that Hu Yunxiang, who seems so serious and old-fashioned, would be so gossipy.

Song Lingge smiled sheepishly: "No, it's Xingxing. That girl seems to have had a fight with her dad. She's very unhappy today and called me crying."

"Oh, your Xingxing is probably taking the college entrance exam soon, right?"

"The exam is over, and the results should be released in the next few days."

Hu Yunxiang glanced at Song Lingge. Although she seemed to be doing well, she was actually a person with a tragic fate.

At their age, most of their children are already married. Only Song Lingge had a daughter late in life, almost thirty years old.

Before Fang Xingxing, Song Lingge had actually been pregnant with another child, but she miscarried for some reason. After that miscarriage, Song Lingge's health deteriorated.

It took Song Lingge several years to get pregnant again and give birth to Fang Xingxing.

It can be considered a blessing that Fang Xingxing is an angel baby. She was not troublesome during her postpartum period, not a burden during her childhood, not a nuisance during her adolescence, and has always been a top student since childhood.

It seems that apart from the child she miscarried, Song Lingge has never suffered much in her life, which is why Jiang Chunmei is so jealous of her.

But no matter what, Song Lingge lost a child. How many women can bear such a price?

"Xingxing's grades are so good, she'll definitely get into either Tsinghua or Peking University. Don't worry, she's finally made it after all these years."

Song Lingge smiled noncommittally; Fang Xingxing had indeed always been her pride.

"Minister Hu, Song Lingge, it's time to get on the bus!" Zhang Chunling shouted loudly in front of the bus.

Once on the bus, Song Lingge deliberately sat in the last row, covered her face with her hat, and went to sleep. Hopefully, no one would bother her anymore!

Song Lingge is the only child in her family. Her father, Song Jianping, is the principal of Nanzhou Middle School, and her mother, Zhao Jueyu, is a teacher at Nanzhou Middle School.

She came from a well-off family and was exceptionally good-looking. She was admitted to Nanzhou Foreign Language University and originally planned to go to Nanzhou Middle School after graduation to work with her parents. Who knew that she would meet Fang Guanghua in college?

At first, Song Lingge didn't like Fang Guanghua. Song Lingge was quite superficial, and Fang Guanghua didn't fit her aesthetic standards at all.

However, Fang Guanghua was eloquent and capable, with a mind full of romantic fantasies. He pursued Song Lingge for three whole years before finally winning her heart.

After getting married, Fang Guanghua persuaded Song Jianping to invest money in him and buy the bankrupt state-owned cement plant, officially becoming the director of Xinghua Cement Plant.

With his quick wit and sharp mind, Xinghua Cement Plant thrived under his leadership and made a lot of money.

Later, as national environmental protection requirements increased, cement plants needed to invest a lot of money in upgrading their environmental protection equipment. Fang Guanghua felt this was not worthwhile, so he simply closed Xinghua Cement Plant.

However, after so many years, he has already made a fortune and achieved financial freedom.

At their age, they could be enjoying their retirement, but Fang Guanghua remains full of energy and has set his sights on the hotel industry, proving himself to be a shrewd businessman.

Song Lingge, however, was different. She loved literature and had always been a sentimental and artistic young woman.

After marriage, she discovered that she and Fang Guanghua didn't actually have much in common, but Fang Guanghua treated her very well and never made her worry about anything at home.

After miscarrying her first child, Song Lingge was unable to conceive for several years. She even considered divorce, but Fang Guanghua remained devoted to her and they decided to remain childless.

It was because of this incident that Song Lingge truly fell in love with Fang Guanghua.

Everyone says Song Lingge is so lucky. She was pampered by her parents at home, loved by her husband after marriage, and even her children are angel babies.

What woman could be so lucky?

"Lingge, come quick! Is Tianxiangyuan your neighborhood? A girl jumped off a building."
