Chapter 545: Chapter 545

Having understood, the willing horse is ridden, the accommodating person is taken advantage of.

Constant concession does not bring peace.

It only brings tragedies, one after another.

"I’m tired." Xie Ruotong didn’t get an answer from Song Yanqing.

She didn’t need his answer either.

Now she just wants to rest well, to heal well.

Only with a recovered body can she do more things.

She needs to recuperate.

The kind that is undisturbed.

"If it really has something to do with Xie Ruilin, I will at least compensate you," Song Yanqing finally answered Xie Ruotong’s question.

Xie Ruotong smiled again.

She said, "How do you think you can compensate me? Bring Qiao’er back to life?"

"Apart from bringing Qiao’er back to life, anything else is possible," Song Yanqing promised.

"What if I ask Xie Ruilin’s life for hers?" Xie Ruotong raised her eyebrows.

Song Yanqing fell silent.

Xie Ruotong said, "Don’t make promises lightly if you can’t keep them."

Some promises really leave deep, deep shadows.

She saved Song Yanqing.

Even though she hadn’t seen Song Yanqing again for a long time afterwards.

But she received a letter of thanks sent by the maids from the Song Residence.

The letter said thank you for saving his life.

A life-saving grace must be repaid with personal commitment.

Once he grew up, he would marry her and only her, never taking a concubine.

Never take a concubine?!

If it wasn’t for her grandmother’s coercion, he wouldn’t even consider marrying her.

Human heart, is the most unreliable thing.

Song Yanqing had long forgotten those so-called promises he made.

So what does the promise now count for?!

It’s just psychological comfort for her.

Letting her descend the steps to deceive herself.

There’s no need to deceive herself.

Song Yanqing is not worth her bending over backward anymore.

"Please leave, I really need to rest now," Xie Ruotong’s voice was soft, yet her attitude remained cold.

Song Yanqing, speechless from what Xie Ruotong said, really had nothing to say.

He had indeed thought about it.

If this matter was Xie Ruilin deliberately targeting Xie Ruotong.

Xie Ruilin’s pampering and coquetry... he was not oblivious to it.

But if it is really found out to be Xie Ruilin’s doing, he asked himself, what can he really do for Xie Ruotong? Clear her reputation, and then what?!

Would he really have the heart to punish Xie Ruilin?!

Would he have the heart to demand a life for a life from Xie Ruilin?!

Towards Xie Ruilin, there is love, but also responsibility.

That year she saved his life.

He swore to treat her well and protect her for a lifetime.

He had promised to marry only her in this lifetime, never to take a concubine.

Yet he did not fulfill this promise.

His guilt towards Xie Ruilin only deepened.

The favor he showed her became increasingly limitless.

Ultimately, Song Yanqing turned around and left.

Without saying another word, making no more promises, he stepped out of Xie Ruotong’s room.

Xie Ruotong no longer held hopes for Song Yanqing.

So she was indifferent to Song Yanqing’s obvious favoritism towards Xie Ruilin.

How to repay, tooth for tooth!

Under the medical prescriptions given by Ye Qichi, Xie Ruotong’s injuries healed faster than she had imagined.

She couldn’t even feel the pain of the wound anymore.

It was only when she accidentally touched the wound that she would feel some pain.

Naturally, she also became much more cautious.

Thinking that it’s time to get out of bed and walk around today. Newest update provided by novel✦fire.net

When Ye Qichi left, he said that after three days she should get out of bed and move to promote blood circulation for better wound recovery, of course, provided that the wound is not torn, as the consequences of that are unimaginable.

Xie Ruotong remembered Ye Qichi’s words by heart.

Now she planned to get up with the help of the maids as Ye Qichi had instructed.

Then she heard a maid report, "Young madam, your mother has come to see you."

Xie Ruotong’s brow slightly furrowed.

Her mother has come?!

Did she receive some news, so she came?!

The incident that happened at the Song Family that day, the Song Family would not take the initiative to inform the Duke Mansion, no matter what, the Song Family was not in the right, and they couldn’t be foolish enough to bring trouble upon themselves.

The only possibility is.

Xie Ruilin did it on purpose.

Xie Ruotong remained composed.

She continued to lie in bed and had the maids invite her mother in.

Shen Cuiru, with the maids from her home bringing many tonics and nutritional items, entered Xie Ruotong’s room.

Xie Ruotong respectfully called out, "Mother."

"Lie down, lie down, don’t move," Shen Cuiru, seeing her daughter’s weak state, hurried over to attend to her.
