Her Cultivation Diary

Chapter 31: 31. Big Friend_1

Speaking of Lun Chuan’s biological father, how resolute Zhou Yongzhi was back then!

When Lun Jing got her divorce papers, she was in so much pain she couldn’t walk, yet Zhou Yongzhi said, “Jingjing, we’re divorced now, it’s not appropriate to keep clinging to each other.”

He turned, got into his car, and drove off without ever considering whether his infidelity during their marriage was appropriate.

But, as fate would have it, three months later, Lun Jing gave birth to a son.

Meanwhile, Lanlan, who had just gotten her marriage certificate, gave birth to a girl with small eyes and a garlic bulb nose. In short, there was nothing about the child that resembled Zhou Yongzhi or Lanlan.

Zhou Yongzhi was going mad!

He spent a lot of money to have people investigate and finally learned the truth—Lanlan used to be a hair salon girl, and even she couldn’t remember clearly whose child it was…

Zhou Yongzhi saw green before his eyes.

Feeling young and successful, he lost face in front of everyone in the village; everyone who saw the child’s face had their doubts.

Out of frustration, he clenched his teeth and went for a paternity test, and the result was, well, whether to call it vexing or something else—

This girl with the ugly nose and eyes turned out to be his daughter indeed.

Lanlan regretted it to death, and it was only now that she finally spat out the rest of the truth—

She was ordinary-looking at first and didn’t earn much as a hair salon girl. So, she contacted a few clients, took some money, and bravely went for plastic surgery, which led to her working in a club.

That’s where she met Zhou Yongzhi, and after two months, she was pregnant, not knowing exactly when it happened…

Zhou Yongzhi’s blood pressure nearly burst through his green head!

Seeing that things weren’t going well, Lanlan promptly proposed divorce and left her daughter with him.

Carrying such a joke, Zhou Yongzhi felt he had no face left in his hometown for many years.

At this time, he learned that his ex-wife Lun Jing had given birth to a son, so he pestered her day after day, disturbing Lun Jing’s job, until she agreed to change her son’s surname to Zhou, which satisfied him.

Originally, he was determined to take his son back with him, after all, he earned more and could provide better conditions.

But at that time, Zhou Yongzhi met another true love.

This time her name seemed to be Fangfang…

In any case, in the reality Lun Chuan was aware of, Zhou Yongzhi had been married three times in total.

But there were only these two children.

Now in his fifties, his dream of having another son had long since shattered, so he set his sights on Lun Chuan again.

In Zhou Yongzhi’s eyes, this son was handsome, tall, and had a unique temperament. Though he didn’t have any skills or a job, his face alone made him popular.

Over the years, he had started from scratch and worked hard in Ning Province, not too much, not too little, he had seven or eight hundred million worth in houses and cars combined. All these were to be left for his son, to continue the family line.

With such a large sum of money dangling, he didn’t believe his unemployed son could refuse him! Even if he wasn’t answering calls, chatting, or meeting now, it was only a matter of time!

With this mindset, Zhou Yongzhi became increasingly directive towards Lun Chuan, and even started scheming daily to get him to change back the surname he had altered after coming of age.

Lun Chuan couldn’t care less to give him a glance, originally planning to move to Imperial City with Lun Jing, until the car accident happened…

In short, at this moment, talking about Zhou Yongzhi made both mother and son lose their appetite.

After a moment of silence, Lun Jing still turned back to the topic:

“Anyway, we’re going to stay in Imperial City in the future, aren’t we? He only has that little ability, can’t even secure a hukou in Imperial City. Our home has strong security, and you don’t have to worry about my job, so just don’t take him too seriously.”

“Son, I’m just worried about you at the moment.”

She sighed deeply:

“You don’t talk to people, seem to have no friends—as before, when you wrote stories, your inner world was at least rich, I didn’t stop you.”

“But you haven’t been writing recently either. You just sit around daydreaming—listen to Mom, at least make some friends online, chat with them, that’s good too.”

As she spoke, her eyes began to redden, “My son is so handsome and kind. Back in high school, you got stacks of love letters—You don’t want to go through with the skin graft surgery now, that’s your choice, but first, you have to take care of your mood.”

She said so much, and her underlying message was very clear. Song Tan took out his phone, “I’ll accept her friend request right away.”

Seeing his silent demeanor, Wu Lan suddenly chuckled, “Son, are you what people refer to online as a ‘homebody’? If you had other friends, Mom wouldn’t insist on you accepting just this one.”

“It’s just that I think, since you did save that girl, if you keep hiding it, she’ll feel burdened. It might be better to have a chat and put her mind at ease.”

—Never seen someone who got injured saving someone else and still has to comfort the one they saved. His mom is really going out of her way to help him make more friends.

Song Tan truly fell silent this time.

His phone suddenly vibrated. He saw that on the chat page with the girl who had just become a friend, the one named “Song Tan,” responded swiftly, simply, and directly:

“Thank you, Song Tan. I heard you were seriously hurt. I can’t repay you now, so I’ll start by sending you some wild greens. Please give me an address.”

For a moment, Song Tan’s mood became indescribably subtle.

It’s just…

He hadn’t expected the other party to fall over themselves in gratitude, offering money or gifts…

But wasn’t there something off about this response?

He couldn’t quite figure out what was wrong right away.

After thinking it over and focusing on the words “wild greens” for a while, he finally gave out Wu Lan’s address in silence.

Given his current state, he couldn’t cook and had to rely on his mother to take on the trouble.

The phone suddenly fell silent.

The efficiency of this communication was beyond Song Tan’s expectations, so much so that he was still somewhat distracted. He fiddled with his phone, unlocking and locking the screen, restless.

Wu Lan saw everything and her heart was filled with joy—

Her son had always been straightforward and direct, with no patience for extensive communication with others. And now, he had encountered someone even more direct and straightforward.

Look, she got the address with just one sentence!

…

Meanwhile, in Ning Province, Yun City, Qingxi Town, Yunqiao Village.

Qiaoqiao huffed and puffed as he moved the basket to the back of the cart, then climbed up to the passenger seat with practiced ease.

He was sweating profusely from the effort. Song Tan saw this and immediately felt pity, taking out five yuan from her bag:

“Good boy Qiaoqiao, you’ve been very diligent today. Here’s a five-yuan reward for you. You can buy whatever you want when we go to town later!”

Qiaoqiao’s face lit up with joy!

The colorful pinwheel he had bought in the city was still on his bedside table. The feeling of buying something with his own money was truly special!

Normally, Wu Lan and Song Sancheng wouldn’t think that, as a kid, he had some hobbies that required spending money.

Seeing this from the back seat, Wu Lan and Song Sancheng couldn’t help but say resentfully, “No wonder Qiaoqiao is so fond of you! Our words don’t seem to carry as much weight as yours…”

They were obviously a bit jealous.

Song Tan chuckled, “Mom, in Qiaoqiao’s eyes, I’m his favorite big friend—little kids always like to play with someone a bit older!”

Song Tan was five years older than Qiaoqiao and had always been the big friend who played with him since they were young.
