Regardless of Gu Chen’s intentions, Song Fan was quite content with these two gifts. She smiled and said, “I’ll accept them, but your earlier promise still stands.”
Song Fan was referring to the promise Gu Chen had made in the suburbs. Gu Chen inquired, “You mentioned that you wanted me to help you find something. What exactly is it?”
“It’s a medicinal ingredient called Tango Fruit,” Song Fan explained. “This herb grows deep in the snowy mountains and is incredibly difficult to find. Very few people venture to gather it. If you can locate it, it would be a significant help to me.”
Gu Chen wasn’t well-versed in medicinal herbs, but he remembered the name of Tango Fruit and replied, “I’ll help you find it.”
Song Fan didn’t linger for too long. Although she had secured an initial victory, there were still many more rounds ahead. During the finals, players would even have to attend matches at Star Technologies’ company premises and live stream the games under the company’s supervision. As a result, many substitute players hesitated to participate in the competition, fearing that they would be exposed in the end.
This match further enhanced Sunflower’s reputation. Numerous female players from overseas expressed their support for her. Witnessing so many female players express their love for the game and their desire to prove themselves through their skills brought a content smile to Song Fan’s face.
The subsequent matches held no suspense; all concluded with Song Fan’s decisive victories. Most opponents acknowledged their loss, with individuals like Red White Rose remaining in the minority.
After the initial round of matches, Song Fan turned off her computer. At that moment, there was a knock on her door.
Song Fan opened the door and found Song Ting standing there. He said, “I’d like to talk to you. Do you have some time?”
This was the first time he had asked in such a manner. Song Fan was curious about what had prompted this sudden initiative. She nodded and said, “Of course.”
Song Ting didn’t have Song Fan go to the study; instead, he chose her room as the location for their conversation.
Song Fan found it peculiar. Psychologically, the study was Song Ting’s territory where he held control, but her room was no longer part of Song Ting’s domain. Essentially, Song Fan was to be the center of this conversation.
After pulling out a chair from the dressing table, Song Ting sat down and began, “I had someone investigate your life in Yongping Village.”
After pondering for some time, Song Ting decided to confess this. After all, he was in the wrong, and it was better to be honest than to hide it.
Song Fan didn’t display any anger. She had anticipated this day would come. She nodded and calmly replied, “I understand.”
Song Ting didn’t expect her to react so composedly. He continued, “How have you been in Yongping Village?”
“Didn’t you already check that?” Song Fan was puzzled.
“I want to hear your perspective,” Song Ting insisted.
Although Song Fan wasn’t sure what he was trying to achieve, she decided to be truthful. “I’ve been fine. It was a bit difficult adjusting when I first arrived there, but my life improved after I started living with my godmother.”
Song Fan provided this response to avoid complaining. Only those who genuinely cared for you would consider your experiences suffering. It was futile to explain to those who were uninterested, as they would never truly understand.
However, Song Ting seemed uncertain about how to respond to her answer. He opened his mouth to speak but then held back.
Upon seeing his hesitation, Song Fan inquired, “What do you want to say exactly?”
“Little sister, I’ve let you down. I’m sorry,” Song Ting said sincerely as he looked at Song Fan.
Song Fan was unsure how to react to this apology. Originally, she didn’t care about the Song Family, but when she heard his apology, she couldn’t help but feel like crying. The sadness she had buried deep within her heart couldn’t be ignored.
These were Song Fan’s emotions. Before her death, she had continued to hope that her family would come to rescue her. Now, she finally received an apology.
Song Fan couldn’t contain her emotions, and tears welled up in her eyes as she cried before Song Ting.
Look, these are the tears of your sister before she passed away. After so many years, she can finally shed tears for you.
Song Ting hadn’t expected Song Fan to cry. He was at a loss for what to do and could only lower his head, saying, “It’s my fault. No matter what you want to do to punish me, I’ll accept it.”
“I won’t make you do anything.” Song Fan sighed softly. “It’s been too long, and no compensation can undo the past. The pain from back then will never disappear.”
Song Fan would never forgive anyone in the Song Family. They were the ones who had given up on her, leading her down a path toward death. That little girl had been thinking about her father and brother until her death, but no one had come to save her..
