Song Ling, suppressing his frustration, asked, “Grandpa, why won’t you help me?”
Song An didn’t respond; he simply turned around, went back into the Song residence, and closed the door behind him.
Song Ling couldn’t understand why Song An refused to support him, especially now that he had changed. He couldn’t fathom why his grandfather would side with outsiders, endorsing Su Ting and Gu Dai’s relationship.
He stood blankly at the door of the Song residence, lost in thought, when his phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Wang Lan.
After answering, Song Ling asked coldly, “What’s the matter?”
Wang Lan’s voice, panicked, broke through, “Yuyu… Yuyu is gone!”
Song Ling, taken aback, quickly asked, “I’ve only been gone for two hours. How could Song Yu disappear? Didn’t you watch her after you got back?”
Wang Lan hesitated, her voice becoming muffled, “I… I had something to do for a bit, and then…”
Song Ling pressed, “How long is ‘a bit’ in your terms?”
Wang Lan admitted quietly, “Just over an hour.”
She had anticipated her pocket money being cut off and had hidden some away. After rendering Song Yu unconscious, she went to check her savings, only to return and find Song Yu missing.
Wang Lan swiftly changed the subject, “The most important thing now is to find Yuyu.”
Song Ling agreed and immediately hung up to organize a search for Song Yu.
Upon returning to the Gu residence, Gu Dai encountered an unexpected visitor in the living room.
Song Yu immediately stood up, excitedly ran to Gu Dai, and grabbed her hand, “Sister Gu Dai, I’ve regained my memory.”
Gu Dai, not yet accustomed to being addressed this way by Song Yu, instinctively withdrew her hand, “Congratulations.”
Song Yu, noticing Gu Dai’s reaction, felt a pang of disappointment.
Remembering her past actions, disappointment turned into guilt. She lowered her head and softly said, “Sister Gu Dai, I apologize for my past behavior towards you. I promise to spend the rest of my life making amends.”
Gu Dai stopped Song Yu from continuing, “If you know you were wrong, that’s enough. There’s no need to spend a lifetime making amends.”
Song Yu insisted, “No, it’s necessary!”
Her eyes, filled with tears, looked up at Gu Dai, “During the surgery, I was somewhat conscious. I remember you saved me…”
Gu Dai was surprised to learn that Song Yu remembered this incident.
Song Yu continued, “After how I treated you, and you still chose to save me… I feel even a lifetime wouldn’t be enough to repay your kindness.”
As she spoke, she prepared to kneel in gratitude.
Just then, Song Ling arrived and saw Song Yu about to kneel before Gu Dai.
He quickly intervened, pulling Song Yu behind him and coldly told Gu Dai, “If you have any grievances, direct them at me, not my sister.”
Gu Dai frowned, “When have I ever made things difficult for Song Yu?”
Su Ting stepped forward, “Daidai hasn’t made things difficult for your sister.”
Seeing Su Ting, Song Ling’s heart clenched in pain, but he retorted, “Of course, you two would say that. You’re in this together.”
Song Yu, resisting the pain, freed her arm, “Brother, Sister Gu Dai hasn’t bullied me.”
Song Ling was skeptical, “Then why were you about to kneel to Gu Dai? And if she hadn’t taken you, how did you end up here?”
Song Yu hurriedly explained, “It was me who came to look for Sister Gu Dai on my own. Just now, I wanted to kneel down by myself because I wanted to express my gratitude…”
Wang Lan, arriving later, embraced Song Yu dramatically, “My Yuyu, you must have been coerced by Gu Dai to lie, right? Don’t worry, your mother and brother are here now. Tell the truth, and we’ll stand up for you.”
Song Yu pushed Wang Lan away, affirming, “What I said was the truth.”
Wang Lan, crying even harder, insisted, “Yuyu, your memory must have been altered by Gu Dai. Don’t worry, we’ll take you to a doctor right now.”
Song Ling opened the car door for them, following them inside.
However, as soon as he started the car, flames suddenly burst forth, engulfing the vehicle in fire within seconds..
