So You're Such A Doctor Song

Chapter 286 - Was Simply That

Chapter 286: Was Simply That

Very quickly, Changqing and Rong Chang were surrounded by some of the country’s top celebrities, models and directors. Some directors were scrambling to invite Changqing to star in new movies, while celebrities and models were adding Changqing’s number and WeChat ID enthusiastically.

Changqing was exalted by everyone and in a moment of muddle-headedness, she realized that the peak she was longing for was simply here.

It seemed like there would be nothing to regret in her life.

By the side, Jiang Duoyao watched wide-eyed as she witnessed this dramatic scene.

After more than an hour, she finally found a chance to pull Changqing aside.

“My dear ancestor, all I did was go out to take a photo with the production team, yet the moment I came back, I heard the news that Augustine Rong was your mother-in-law. This is too shocking.” Jiang Duoyao appeared as though she had just seen a ghost. “I even heard that Augustine Rong stood up for you and the organizing committee chased Zhao Zhu out straight away. You’re... too cool.”

“I’m also very shocked.” Changqing also grabbed onto Jiang Duoyao’s hand tightly and her hand was still trembling. She was pretending to be calm when actually, she was very nervous. “I’ve never seen her before or heard about her from Song Chuchu.”

“Wow, why didn’t I marry Song Chuyi then?” Jiang Duoyao was full of envy.

“...” Changqing snorted softly. “You want to marry him? Are you willing to face his brother and father?”

“Er... that’s a problem.” Jiang Duoyao was conflicted. “But with a mom like that, you can do whatever you want in the entertainment industry in the future. If you want to go international, you can do so any time and nobodies like Zhang Zixin couldn’t bully you. I really made a wrong judgment before. I thought she was quite nice and I didn’t think she could be so scheming. If I was there earlier, I would’ve definitely given her a piece of my mind then given her a tight slap.”

“You’re so rash. Luckily you weren’t there,” Changqing said. “Zhang Zixin’s been so popular in the entertainment industry for so many years and is already a seasoned actor. Even Ruan Yang doesn’t have as much say as her. We’re still young; all the more reason you shouldn’t go head-on against her. She’s such a scheming person. Let’s not offend nasty people.”

“I just don’t like b*tches.” Jiang Duoyao snorted.

It was after 11 pm and the event was slowly coming to an end. Rong Chang walked right out of the crowd surrounding her and headed towards Changqing. “Let’s go back to the hotel.”

Changqing stared wide-eyed at her. “Auntie, I think I’ll leave with my friend. We’re staying at the same hotel anyway...”

“You’re right. Since we’re all staying at the same hotel, invite your friend over to join us.” Rong Chang smiled and beckoned Jiang Duoyao over.

Hence, Jiang Duoyao forgot about all her unhappiness and dragged Changqing along quickly. “Changqing, it’s the first time your mother-in-law invited you along. How can you reject her? That’s so rude.”

Changqing: “...”

What was this? If the world ended up in a war, Jiang Duoyao would definitely be the first one to betray the country.

Outside the venue, there were still a bunch of reporters waiting bitterly. The moment the three of them walked out, all the reporters took action, taking as many pictures as they could with their cameras.

No one could understand why Augustine Rong didn’t walk out with the Kings and Queens of the silver screen and was with Jiang Duoyaoa and Yan Changqing instead. Could it be that the three of them were somehow related? Or was it because Augustine Rong had her eyes set on the two of them? Would they move to the international stage in the future?

Changqing watched the blinking camera lights and didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. In any case, she would definitely make the headlines tomorrow. If someone were to leak out news of Augustine Rong being her mother-in-law, then the whole world would know she was married.

With such an impressive mother-in-law, if she wanted to remarry in the future, it would be a little difficult to find a match.

During the car ride back to the hotel, Jiang Duoyao was chatting with Augustine Rong while Changqing sat quietly at the side. Thinking about the fact that she would have to see Song Chuyi later made her frustrated. No matter what, she had to make it clear to him this time. She couldn’t let it drag on any more.

When the car arrived at the hotel, the hotel security escorted them out of the car.

They walked in from the revolving door. In the hall, a man who was sitting on the couch, dressed in a dark brown trench coat, stood up.

“Chuyi, why did you come downstairs?” Rong Chang greeted him first.

Changqing’s body froze. She watched as the tall figure walked over and a sense of shyness and nervousness started surging up from inside.

Alright, it was actually mainly because it was her first time seeing Song Chuchu in autumn wear. He was wearing a pair of long black pants and black leather shoes as well as a black cashmere sweater under his trench coat, making him look tall and elongated. His style simply defeated all the male celebrities at the dinner gala tonight.

He was indeed Rong Chang’s son.

However... this kind of handsome man should only be allowed to be eye candy.

She should never be bewitched by his manly charms.

Changqing took a deep breath and kept a cold face.

What was the point of being handsome? Looks couldn’t put food on the table.

“I just came back after having supper with my classmates in Shanghai, so I waited for you downstairs.” Song Chuyi gazed deeply at Changqing. His eyes shone brightly like the stars in the night sky. “Her dress today...”

“Didn’t I send you a picture already?” Rong Chang interrupted him. “Don’t you think she looks even prettier in person?”

Song Chuyi clenched his fists and coughed softly. His ears became slightly red. “I almost couldn’t recognize her.”

Changqing glared at him. Alright, it was just a little more than three months since they last met, yet he almost couldn’t recognize her. What a callous person.

“Duoyao, let’s go upstairs first and let the two of them have a nice chat.” Rong Chang glanced at the two of them and beckoned Jiang Duoyao.

Jiang Duoyao was stunned and was a little unwilling at first, but she had a change of thought. It was true that these two shouldn’t continue dragging out this matter. Hence, she nodded and went up with Rong Chang.

There were people walking around the hall. Although the hotel had made special arrangements to ensure the guests’ privacy was protected so no photography was allowed, everyone still cast weird glances at the two of them.

Changqing lifted her head up unnaturally. “Let’s find an empty place to talk.”

“Let’s go to the top floor. It seems alright.” Song Chuyi reached his hand out towards her. “I’ll help you carry your bag.”

“There’s no need.” Changqing avoided him and walked towards the elevator while looking down.

Song Chuyi retracted his fair hands slowly and followed along.

There were quite some people getting in and out of the elevator on the way up to the top floor. Changqing stood in the corner with her head lowered and Song Chuyi stood in front of her, blocking her with his tall figure from everyone so she wouldn’t be recognized.

Only, Song Chuyi was standing very close to her and he could smell the faint scent from her body. He sighed deep inside.

They took the elevator for around seven to eight minutes before reaching the top floor. After that, they climbed a flight of stairs up to finally reach the rooftop.

Nighttime in Shanghai was full of vibrant and bright colors.

Changqing recalled the time they met was when the two of them watched the sunrise together at the top of the mountain. He was standing beside her and said he would watch the sunrise with her often in the future. At that time, her heart really throbbed.

However, when men lied, sometimes women would really become very dumb.

“Song Chuchu, let’s get our divorce procedures done the day after tomorrow when we get back to Northern City,” Changqing started softly. “I don’t want... to carry on like this.”

Song Chuyi watched her with his dark eyes. “Changqing, I didn’t come back this time to get the divorce procedures done. I want to resolve the problem between us.”

Changqing frowned. She said expressionlessly, “There’s nothing to resolve between us; there’s no need.”

“Why’s there no need?” Song Chuyi grabbed her shoulder and turned her face over. His handsome features were softened by the gentle and quiet moonlight. “Do you still remember that I said I would watch the sunrise with you...”

“That was several months ago; I don’t remember it anymore. Besides, you’re not reliable at all. I don’t believe you.” Changqing brushed his arm away as though she was venting all the emotions she had been suppressing inside these past few months. There were times where she would feel exceptionally terrible in the middle of the night, worrying about this and that. This person knew nothing at all.

“How am I unreliable?” Song Chuyi was stunned.

“You understand it clearly,” Changqing said coldly with a hoarse voice. “I don’t like you anymore. I... I only want to get a divorce with you right now. I want to start life afresh.”

Song Chuyi’s face became taut. He watched her quietly for a while more before saying gently, “I don’t believe you. You liked Fu Yu for so long then, so how could you not like me so quickly? Besides, you weren’t in any ambiguous relationships with other men these past few months when I wasn’t around. I know that clearly.”

Changqing glared at him and said angrily, “You got someone to watch me?”

Song Chuyi felt a little embarrassed. “I had to leave for a few months and Lin Yueli had been hovering around you. Of course I would be worried.”

Changqing stomped her feet. “You’re simply despicable. What right do you have to get someone to watch me while you’re having the time of your life overseas? Song Chuyi, aren’t you disgusting?”

“What nonsense are you spouting?” Song Chuyi’s pupils constricted. “When did I have the time of my life? I was overseas taking care of my mom. Didn’t Mingwei tell you that? My mom got into a car accident and was unconscious for almost three months. I was taking care of her at the hospital every day.”

“Yeah. In any case, that’s all Mingwei and Li Shaobin told me.” Changqing felt her throat turning hot, but she tried her best to hold it in. “Don’t think I don’t know anything. Your mom was unconscious, but you’ve had a great time with Song Yunyang, right? Brother and Sister taking care of your mom together, spending time together all day. How happy.”

Song Chuyi’s face turned black. “Who did you hear all this from?”

“Of course it’s your brother. That brother of yours is a lunatic.” Thinking of Song Chulang, Changqing felt terrible from top to toe and became even more temperamental. “I don’t want to live with you anymore.”

“Stop talking nonsense.” Song Chuyi’s handsome features were cast with annoyance. He didn’t guess incorrectly; it was indeed Song Chulang again. “After my mom’s accident, Yunyang did come to Munich but that was because it was my mom who suggested the Song Family adopt her. Besides, Yunyang’s mom who passed away was a good friend of my mom, so Yunyang was very grateful to my mom. She did take care of my mom for a period of time in the beginning, but both of us felt it wasn’t very appropriate for the two of us to stay under the same roof and it was also very awkward, so not long after she went to Germany, she went to Frankfurt to work.”
