Jiang Zhiling was shocked and stared blankly at the child kneeling in front of her: What's going on?
Song Chen bent down and kowtowed to her solemnly.
"you……"
"Thank you for saving Xiao Ye." Song Chen knelt on the ground and solemnly thanked him.
He knew very well that if it weren't for Jiang Zhiling tonight, Song Ye would die.
Then he will never forgive himself in this life.
After hearing his words, Jiang Zhiling finally realized: "I didn't save him because of you. Even if the person who fell into the pond today was a stranger, I would still save him."
After saying thank you, Song Chen stood up and continued, "Also, I'm sorry."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhiling looked at him: "Why are you apologizing?"
"Before today, I was really worried that you would hurt Xixi and Xiaoye. But now, I believe it." Song Chen explained.
Growing up, Song Chen was used to women being evil.
Whether it was the biological mother who beat and scolded them and abused them all the time, or the later women who wanted to marry Song Yuzhou secretly hurt their brothers and sisters.
These experiences made Song Chen no longer trust anyone.
But tonight, Jiang Zhiling told him with practical actions that she was different from those bad women who wanted to hurt them.
If Jiang Zhiling was really hostile to the three siblings, as long as she didn't show that she knew how to swim, she could just sit back and watch, and no one could blame her.
But she didn't do that.
"I shouldn't trust outsiders, but I don't trust you. I'm sorry." Song Chen added truthfully and bowed again to apologize.
During this time together, he knew that Jiang Zhiling's heart was not bad, and he could also see her love for Xixi.
But because of the past, he didn't believe she was sincere.
Jiang Zhining stared at him blankly, her eyes full of shock.
She didn't expect that Song Chen would apologize to her and be sincere.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
"Do you really believe me?"
Song Zhen nodded solemnly: "Yes, I believe you. In the future, unless I see it with my own eyes, I will not believe what others say."
Looking at his serious expression, Jiang Zhiling finally relaxed: "That's good. I'm not one of those vicious stepmothers, and my experience doesn't allow me to do that."
Her childhood has been bleak, how could she hurt a child with the same disease.
"Now I don't have the ability to make money, so I have to ask my father to take care of us brothers and sisters. When I grow up and can make money, I will take them both away and won't disturb your lives."
He knew that the three of them were a burden, but now that he had no ability to live independently, he could only drag Song Yuzhou down.
When he grows up in the future and is able to take care of his younger siblings, he will no longer be a burden to Song Yuzhou.
Jiang Zhiling smiled slightly: "That's not the case. Since you are all Song Yuzhou's children now, we will take good care of you until you become adults."
Song Chen was stunned for two seconds, then bowed to her and said sincerely: "Thank you."
Looking at him, Jiang Zhiling stretched out her hand: "Song Chen, let's get along in a friendly way. I don't need you to accept me, just live in peace."
Looking at her white and slender fingers, Song Chen paused, and finally held her hand.
Shaking hands and making peace is what they are talking about.
After reconciling with Jiang Zhiling, Song Chen returned to the room very quietly for fear of waking up his younger siblings.
Tiptoeing onto the bed, he was about to lie down when he saw Song Ye sitting up.
"Brother." Song Ye looked at him with some anxiety, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have run out and made you worry."
Seeing Song Ye's careful and nervous look, Song Chen patted him on the head: "I don't blame you, it's my fault. I shouldn't be cruel to you."
"Brother, I know you don't like your mother, but she...she is a good mother, and I like her." Song Ye's eyes were red, "I felt so uncomfortable and scared when I just fell into the water."
Song Chen's eyes turned red and she held his head: "It's okay, she saved you, she's not a bad person."
"She's not." Song Ye shed tears, "I like my brother and I also like her."
Song Chen wiped away his tears and stroked his head: "A man doesn't shed tears when he bleeds. From now on, you can call her mom if you want. I won't stop you."
Song Ye's eyes lit up: "Really? Can I do it?"
"Um."
"Thank you, brother." Song Ye looked happy.
Looking at his look, Song Chen suddenly felt that this might be the right decision.
The next day, the police came directly to the door and arrested Xia Chunyu.
Jiang Zhiling is not a soft persimmon. If Xia Chunyu wants to harm them, she will never just give them a beating and let it go.
Early in the morning, Jiang Zhiling heard Xia Chunyu's crying and screaming, and Aunt Xia's excited obstruction.
As soon as Xia Chunyu was taken away, there was a loud knock on the door.
Because it was the weekend, the children did not have to go to class. Xixi and Song Ye were playing in the yard.
Hearing the banging on the door, Xixi was so frightened that she threw herself into Song Ye's arms and hugged him fearfully.
"Jiang Zhiling, open the door! Don't hide in there and keep silent, I know you are at home! Open the door, open the door!"
Aunt Xia shouted at the top of her lungs, and the door panel clanked.
"You two go back to the house first." Song Chen said solemnly.
Song Ye nodded, took Xixi's hand, and ran quickly to the house.
When he was ready, Song Chen went to open the door. As soon as the door opened, Aunt Xia came in angrily.
"You stinky bitch who has killed a thousand swords, give me my daughter back!!" Aunt Xia walked into the house with a ferocious expression.
Song Chen saw this and stopped him: "Grandma Xia, get up."
"Go away." Aunt Xia pushed him away directly.
Song Chen staggered back two steps. He wanted to stop him, but he was just a child after all and couldn't stop him at all.
After Jiang Zhining finished washing, she came out of the room and looked at her calmly: "Xia Chunyu deserves it. She is the one who brought this about."
Aunt Xia roared angrily: "I don't care, you have to ask the police to let me go, otherwise, I...I will destroy your house."
Hearing this rogue appearance, Jiang Zhining said coolly: "You dare to touch every brick of my house, don't blame me for being rude. Maybe you can go to jail to accompany her."
"You!" Aunt Xia glared and said fiercely, "I'm leaving my words here today. If you don't go to the Public Security Bureau to cancel it, I'll make you look good today."
Xia Chunyu was the precious daughter she had grown up holding in her hands. As soon as she graduated from high school, she would be able to find a good family to marry.
As a result, Jiang Zhiling was sent to the police station!
If he stayed in prison for a few years, Xia Chunyu's life would be ruined.
No matter what, she wouldn't allow this to happen.
It's a pity that Jiang Zhiling is a soft-spoken person.
"You want me to cancel? No way." Jiang Zhiling stopped her thoughts directly.
Hearing this, Aunt Xia felt a surge of anger, and her rationality was instantly washed away.
Aunt Xia's eyes were fierce, and she suddenly rushed towards Jiang Zhiling quickly, strangled her neck hard, and shouted: "Do you want to withdraw? Or I will strangle you to death!!"
