"What? How could this happen?" Song Ge's face paled and her expression turned tense.
The person on the other end of the phone said a couple of words, and Song Ge hung up, looking flustered.
"What's going on?" Zhai Cheng stood up and walked over.
"Aunt Chen said Mom fainted."
Zhai Cheng felt a sudden dizziness. His father was already gone. If something happened to his mother...
Song Ge quickly changed her clothes and went home with Zhai Cheng.
The two of them rushed into the villa. But before they reached the hall, they heard laughter. It was Meng Yajing.
Song Ge and Zhai Cheng looked at each other in surprise.
Meng Yajing and Mother An were sitting in the hall chatting. Judging from the atmosphere, well, they were very happy.
"Mom, didn't Aunt Chen say you fainted?" As he spoke, Zhai Cheng glanced at Aunt Chen.
Aunt Chen automatically lowered her head. She had done this kind of thing more than once.
Seeing Song Ge and Zhai Cheng come back together, Meng Yajing smiled. "I planned to order a set of jewelry for Song Ge, but I was afraid she wouldn't accept it. This was really a last resort."
Zhai Cheng rubbed his forehead. "Next time, just tell us what's going on. Can you stop joking about your health?"
His expression was a bit angry.
Song Ge stepped forward and took his hand, gently squeezing it to signal him not to be too angry.
Meng Yajing also realized that Zhai Cheng might be angry and knew she shouldn't have lied to them about her health. "It won't happen again."
Mother An came out to smooth things over. "Alright, it was all for everyone's good."
Zhai Cheng sat on the sofa without saying a word.
After a while, the servant outside came in. "The jeweler who's going to make the jewelry is here."
"Quickly invite him in." Meng Yajing greeted.
Song Ge originally planned to decline, but seeing the awkward situation between Meng Yajing and Zhai Cheng, she was afraid that if she did, it would make Meng Yajing unhappy.
The jeweler measured Song Ge's hand circumference and other things. He also let her choose the style, and then left.
The atmosphere in the hall was still a bit awkward.
Mother An glanced at Song Ge, signaling her to ease the situation.
Song Ge also made some funny faces. She knew Zhai Cheng's temper.
At the dinner table, Zhai Cheng took a couple of bites and then put down his chopsticks and went into his room.
Mother An knew it was not appropriate for her to stay any longer. After dinner, she left.
Seeing Meng Yajing sighing all the time, Song Ge patted her on the shoulder. "Zhai Cheng is just too afraid of losing you." Although Zhai Cheng always had a cold face, she knew he cared deeply about his family.
Meng Yajing knew this too. She pursed her lips and then smiled. "I'll go find him."
Song Ge nodded.
Meng Yajing knocked on the door and entered Zhai Cheng's room.
Hearing the sound, Zhai Cheng instinctively looked up, and then lowered his head again, doing his own thing.
Meng Yajing looked embarrassed. She walked over and sat down. Her fingers kept twirling as she hesitated on how to start.
"I know I was wrong to do this, but..." Meng Yajing originally wanted to excuse herself, but suddenly felt her reason was quite absurd. It was reasonable for him to be angry. "I promise it won't happen again."
Zhai Cheng's hand, which was flipping through the documents, paused for a moment but he didn't say a word.
Meng Yajing lowered her head, feeling very remorseful. "I've always felt quite sorry for you. You don't even know what your biological father looks like, and you grew up in such a strict environment. All of this is my debt to you. It was originally my own fault, but you had to bear it."
As she spoke, she got quite excited and her voice choked with sobs.
Zhai Cheng stopped what he was doing and looked at her. In fact, he had never blamed her.
"Do you regret being my son?" After Meng Yajing said this, she looked up. Zhai Cheng was just looking at her.
Zhai Cheng shook his head, looking very sincere. "I've never thought like that." After saying that, he reached out and put his arm around Meng Yajing's shoulder. "I'm very lucky."
Everything was just right.
Hearing this, Meng Yajing cried even more.
Zhai Cheng didn't say a word and just let her cry.
As the saying goes, there's no overnight feud between mother and son. The two were reconciled.
The news that Zhai Cheng and Song Ge were about to get married quickly made the headlines, making people extremely envious.
Leng Jing was lying around in Zhai Cheng's house when she saw this news. Because of Leng Jing, Song Ge also invited Ji Qingzhen to the house.
Seeing Zhai Cheng and Song Ge on the news, Leng Jing excitedly pointed at the two on the TV. "Song Ge, you're on TV."
Song Ge took a look and thought Leng Jing was making a big deal out of it.
Leng Jing glanced at Ji Qingzhen sitting beside her and blushed a little. "What should I do? I also want to get married."
There was no doubt about who the object was.
Ji Qingzhen awkwardly touched his nose and shifted his position to keep some distance from Leng Jing.
Leng Jing moved over and sat beside him.
Seeing the two of them, Song Ge couldn't help but want to laugh. "Don't scare Ji Qingzhen."
"Who's scaring him?" Leng Jing pouted and retorted.
Seeing that it was still early for dinner, Song Ge took the initiative to invite Ji Qingzhen to sit in the back garden.
"Where are you going? I'm going too." Leng Jing shouted. She smelled something fishy.
"You stay inside." Song Ge gave Leng Jing a lot of hints. Leng Jing finally understood and obediently sat in the hall waiting for them.
Outside, Ji Qingzhen naturally saw that Song Ge had something to say to him. He spoke first. "What do you want to say?"
Song Ge thought for a while, looking hesitant. Finally, she made up her mind. "What do you think of Leng Jing?"
Since Ji Qingyun left, Song Ge had seen all of Leng Jing's changes. She hoped Leng Jing could be happy.
Ji Qingzhen didn't expect Song Ge to ask this question. He was stunned for a moment. After reacting, he scratched his head. "Well... although she's a bit willful, she's okay."
This was his true feeling. He didn't seem to dislike Leng Jing as much as he thought.
Hearing this, Song Ge breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed there was still a possibility between them. "Leng Jing used to like your elder brother very much. You also know that she used to mistake you for your elder brother before. If you think there's no possibility between you two, I hope you can stay away from her."
If this continued, Leng Jing would surely get hurt.
Ji Qingzhen naturally understood what Song Ge meant and nodded.
Song Ge went into the villa first, leaving Ji Qingzhen alone outside to think.
As soon as Song Ge entered, Leng Jing pulled her over, looking very excited. She also looked behind to make sure Ji Qingzhen didn't come in. Then she asked, "What did you talk about?"
Song Ge looked mysterious. "I won't tell you."
"Humph." Just as Leng Jing was about to say something, a person came in from outside.
Aunt Chen also came in and explained. "This person said he's here to find the young master."
After Song Ge made sure there was no danger, she asked someone to find Zhai Cheng.
Zhai Cheng slightly squinted his eyes and sized up the person in front of him. He asked, "What do you want?"
The visitor also sized up Zhai Cheng and was sure he was the person he was looking for. "It's like this. Your biological father sent me to find you."
