Flower City's Peerless Divine Doctor-Chapter 560: A Twist in the Road

He had spent the entire morning at the beauty salon.

Around noon, Li Chen gave Jiang Qing a nod and prepared to leave.

Stepping onto the street, he hailed a taxi, planning to head home to spend some time with his sister-in-law, when an unfamiliar call came in.

"Li Chen, you're such a jerk, hurting Xiao Yu so deeply, do you even have a conscience?"

A girl's voice came through the phone.

Her words left Li Chen dumbfounded.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Xiao Yu's friend, do you even know how serious she was about you? All she talked about every day was you, saying she had met someone she could trust, someone she should cherish. And look at how you treated her."

The girl's voice was furious, "Xiao Yu has been crying every day, not eating, her body is almost breaking down. If you have any conscience left, come and see her."

"If I weren't worried about her, I wouldn't bother calling you, a heartless jerk, huh!"

A series of scolding left Li Chen somewhat dazed.

Was Song Yu really sincere about him?

Wasn't she just after his money?

She played the pity card in front of him to scam money and then hopped into some other man's car, just a gold-digging hustler.

"Xiao Yu's life is tough too, living with her mom. Her mom is severely ill, just lying in the hospital."

"Now, she's been hurt by someone like you, I really feel she doesn't deserve this."

The girl said another sentence in fury and hung up the call.

Li Chen stood rooted to the spot for a long time.

He had heard from Song Yu before that her mother was in poor health and needed money for treatment.

He had thought it was all just an excuse to scam money, but from this girl's words, it seemed maybe it was true.

After a long thought, he sighed quietly, hailed a taxi, and decided to go check on her.

Arriving at the place where Song Yu lived, he knocked on the door, and a strange girl answered.

She was about the same age as Song Yu.

Tall and slender, with delicate features. Though slightly lacking compared to Song Yu, she was also a strikingly attractive woman.

The girl's expression was cold, even carrying a hint of disgust in her eyes.

"At least you have some conscience."

"If anything happened to Xiao Yu, you'd be the main culprit."

The girl said coldly, turned, and went inside, "Xiao Yu's room is over there, go see for yourself! She won't listen to anyone, and she won't eat. If it weren't so, I wouldn't have called you."

Li Chen flashed a helpless smile, recognizing this as the girl who had called him.

Without holding a grudge, he walked over and pushed open the door to Song Yu's room.

"Duoduo, I'm okay, you don't need to worry about me. I just want to be alone for a while."

Song Yu leaned against the head of the bed, her head down, looking at her phone.

Her delicate and beautiful face was very pale, devoid of color and with residual tear stains, apparently having just cried.

Li Chen's heart, now calmed, involuntarily trembled.

He closed the door behind him and walked over.

"Duoduo, I really... Brother Chen?"

Hearing the footsteps entering, Song Yu subconsciously raised her head and paused when she saw who it was.

Her frail body trembled, tears welled up in her beautiful eyes, then, biting her red lips, she tried hard to calm herself down, pretended as if nothing was wrong, and looked out the window.

"Why... why are you here? Didn't you say you were never going to see me again?"

"Anyway, in your eyes, I'm just a swindler, all lies, just to swindle your money, a woman with no feelings. You wanted to throw me away, so you threw me away. Why are you even here?"

As she spoke, she started to choke up again, her delicate body trembling intensely, the phone she was holding dropped to the side.

At the top, Li Chen saw the pictures they had taken together.

His heart shuddered again.

She was still going through the bits and pieces of their time together.

Could it truly have been a misunderstanding, had he wronged her?

"Just go! Leave!"

"Why were you so nice to me, making me fall for you, only to then throw me away, sob sob..."

Song Yu was very emotional.

Turning her head, tears fell like beads off a string, pouring down.

Afterward, she curled up, hugging her knees and burying her head to cry bitterly, looking so heartbroken, so helpless.

Li Chen felt a pang in his heart, strode forward, and firmly embraced her trembling body, saying with a quivering voice, "Xiao Yu, I'm sorry!"

The sound of Song Yu's sobbing abruptly stopped.

Lifting her head, her eyes somewhat blank and shocked, the next moment, she clung tightly to Li Chen's waist, choking up, "Brother Chen, don't... don't say sorry, I should be the one apologizing to you, I should have been clear with you."

"I... I was just scared you would despise me, that's why I didn't dare tell you."

"That day I was just accompanying someone for drinks, they would give me money, my mom is really sick, I needed the money, I'm all my mom has, if I don't save her, no one will, but I really didn't do anything to betray you, I'm still pure, you can see that now."

Song Yu was still very emotional.

Speaking of which, she reached to take off her clothes, wanting to prove her innocence.

"Xiao Yu..."

Li Chen sat down, grabbed her trembling hands, and held Song Yu tightly once again.

Having spoken to this point, he had completely understood now.

Looking into those teary eyes, his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

It seemed he had really misunderstood her.

"Tell me how much money you need, you can tell me."

"I... I've already taken a lot of money from you, I can't keep asking you for money."

Song Yu said, hanging her head, "I admit, at the beginning, I was with you for the money, but gradually, I really fell in love with you, always asking for money, afraid that you would think I was a gold digger and get tired of me."

"I was scared, so I wanted to earn some money on my own as much as possible."

"Brother Chen, can you forgive me? I like you, I love you, please, don't leave me!"

Song Yu pour out all of her inner thoughts.

These past few days, as she went through their chat records and the photos they had taken together, her heart was torn with pain.

She even secretly hated her own background.

Why she couldn't chase that pure and clean love like other ordinary girls.

And had personally lost the man she had finally fallen in love with.

"Xiao Yu, it won't happen again!"

"It was I who was too impulsive, I should have understood the situation clearly, making you suffer so much."

Li Chen sighed, speaking very tenderly.

He reached out to touch her face, filled with tears, full of pity.

If it hadn't been for that girl's phone call, he would even be unaware of the heavy pressure Song Yu was under.

"Brother Chen, I don't blame you, really, I don't blame you..."

Song Yu lifted her head, showing a beautifully tragic smile.

With the forgiveness of her beloved, all the grievances instantly disappeared.

Then, she hooked her arms around Li Chen's neck, kissing him passionately.
