Chapter 179 - All Your Efforts Are in Vain
Lu Gan remembered something and looked at Song Ci with a playful expression.
“You said some people are born strong such as Yujin and… Me? Is that my image in your heart? No wonder you love me so much.”
Song Ci did not know whether to laugh or cry. Anyway, she continued to push Lu Gan’s wheelchair and said, “Let’s go. Dinner is ready.”
After a satisfying dinner, Song Ci took a bottle of glue and helped Song Yujin fix his phone.
Song Yujin stood by the side and stared without blinking.
“It’s the same as before.”
His tone was calm as usual without any hint of dissatisfaction.
Song Ci smiled.
“See. I told you I’ll fix it.”
Then, she patted his head.
“Just give me a call whenever you feel like it. I’ll definitely answer.”
Song Ci was surprised because everything that had happened was due to Song Yujin’s shyness to call her. Song Yujin rarely acted this way.
“Why don’t you try and give me a video call now?”
Song Yujin felt a little embarrassed, but he complied. He turned on his phone slowly and gave Song Ci a video call.
Song Ci immediately answered and her face filled the screen. After that, she said exaggeratedly, “Wow! Yujin actually called me!”
Song Yujin was rather amused. He looked at Song Ci’s face on the screen and said softly, “It doesn’t look good.”
Song Ci asked skeptically, “What doesn’t look good?”
Song Yujin pointed at his phone.
“Your face on the screen isn’t as good-looking in comparison to real life.”
Song Ci smiled and adjusted the distance between her and the camera.
“How about now? Do I look better?”
Song Yujin made a quick comparison. It was indeed better. He nodded and looked at Song Ci.
When Kong Chuyun was still alive, Song Yujin did not own a cell phone. After she passed, he inherited it. However, there was no one he wanted to contact.
In short, this was Song Yujin’s first time trying out a video call. He felt a little strange because it was a new experience.
Suddenly, Song Ci’s phone rang. It was Wu Xiaonian. She instantly answered.
When Song Ci carried Song Yujin away, Wu Xiaonian tried to chase after her but Yuan Feihua intercepted. By the time she broke free, Song Ci and Song Yujin were already gone.
In the end, Wu Xiaonian decided to give Song Ci some time to calm down.
It was already nighttime. Wu Xiaonian figured that Song Ci should have cooled off. Hence, she called her. She hoped Song Ci’s impulsiveness and anger would not affect Song Yujin’s future.
“I’m sure you know how hard it is for Song Yujin to get into this school. You need to think for the sake of that child. He can’t just drop out.”
Song Ci glanced at Song Yujin, who was still fiddling with his phone. Then, she replied, “Dropping out of this school is for his sake.”
Upon hearing that, Song Yujin swiftly raised his head.
Song Ci continued, “Teacher Wu, you should know better than anyone about Yujin’s talent. Going to a public school will certainly benefit him more.”
Wu Xiaonian was surprised.
“You plan to let him attend a public school?”
She was not trying to be rude, but most people would look down on public schools in comparison to private schools. Such a decision might affect both Song Ci’s and Song Yujin’s image.
“Madam Song, are you serious? Song Yujin may gain more benefits from a public school, but wouldn’t your family’s past efforts end up in vain?”
Wu Xiaonian had a hard time understanding Song Ci’s train of thought.
