Chapter 181: The Gentle Song Ting
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
She couldn’t blame Song Fan for being malicious. After all, in her memory, Song Ting had a deep hatred for her. Furthermore, Song Ting didn’t give her a warm reception when she returned to A City.
In her view, it was best for both of them to maintain some distance to avoid daily quarrels.
“I’m already getting used to living here, and besides, I need to return to work once my sick leave is over. It’s more convenient for me here,” Song Fan reasoned, attempting to persuade Song Ting.
However, Song Ting remained resolute, gazing ahead as if he hadn’t heard Song Fan’s plea.
Song Fan didn’t anticipate him being so unyielding; she tugged at his arm and asked, “Didn’t you hear me?”
Of course, Song Ting had heard her, but he chose to close his eyes, unwilling to respond to Song Fan. This behavior genuinely surprised Song Fan; she never expected Song Ting to stoop to such shamelessness.
The car swiftly arrived at the Song residence. Song Ting quickly carried Song Fan inside and said, “You’ll have to make do with staying here for a few days. I’ll rearrange the bedroom layout for you in a couple of days.”
Song Fan didn’t mind this, but as she was about to decline, Song Ting interrupted her, giving her a deliberate nudge.
Song Kai, thinking that Song Ting might struggle to carry her any longer, suggested, “Big Brother, allow me to take her upstairs.”
Song Ting shook his head and replied, “No need; it’s just a few steps.”
“Have you two ever considered that maybe I can walk up on my own?” Song Fan asked, but her words were completely disregarded by the two of them.
Song Ting continued to carry her while Song Kai stood nearby, prepared to catch her, as though he feared she might fall. His demeanor resembled that of an emperor’s escort.
Song Yin, noticing the car pulling into the courtyard, rushed out to welcome Song Ting. However, when she descended from the second floor, she was taken aback.
She had never seen Song Ting so anxious; he had always been aloof and disliked physical contact. Even the household servants tiptoed around him. Song Yin had assumed this was his innate personality, but here he was, hugging Song Fan.
Jealousy flared up inside her, but she feigned concern and inquired, “What’s wrong with Sister? Wasn’t she fine before?”
Song Kai gestured for her to step aside. “She was fine before, but she got injured later,” he explained.
This response only fueled Song Yin’s frustration. Why have Song Kai’s words been increasingly unpleasant lately?
Song Ting and Song Kai carried Song Fan into the bedroom and then called for the servants. “Fetch the family doctor,” they instructed.
“No need to call the doctor; I’m fine,” Song Fan assured them. “I had a checkup at Gu Chen’s place. The doctor said I can remove the cast soon.”
Upon hearing Gu Chen’s name, Song Ting’s resolve solidified. “Get the doctor here immediately,” he insisted.
Song Fan finally realized that today, the two Song brothers in the family had both turned selectively deaf, and it seemed that they wouldn’t listen to anything she said, no matter what.
At this moment, Song Yin walked in and suggested, “Brother, let me take care of Sister. It’s more suitable for a woman.’
“Song Fan only injured her arms and legs; it’s not necessary,” Song Kai replied casually.
He didn’t say this to rebuff Song Yin but genuinely believed that Song Fan’s injuries were manageable. He saw no need for Song Yin to take care of her.
However, Song Yin’s fragile nerves were easily triggered. She interpreted Song Kai’s words as a sign of distrust. Do they know about the conversation between the maid and Song Fan in court? Have I been abandoned by them?
The family doctor arrived promptly and conducted a routine examination of Song Fan. He explained, “The injuries on Eldest Miss’s body are nearly healed, but the extent of bone healing can only be determined through an X-ray.”
Song Ting, being a surgeon, understood and agreed to have a specialist in orthopedics examine her.
Because Song Kai had experienced injuries in the past, the Song family employed an orthopedic specialist as their family doctor.
Song Fan hesitated to undergo another X-ray. She quickly protested, “I had an X-ray at Gu Chen’s house. The doctor said I’m fine.”
Upon seeing Song Fan’s hesitation, Song Ting decided not to press further. He tucked her in and said, “Even if you’re recovering, you can’t be too careless. I’ll have some bone broth prepared for you tomorrow. You don’t need to rush back to work at school..”
