Chapter 420: Chapter 420: Song Zhicheng Promises to Marry Miss Ou

Song Zhicheng did not answer her question but continued, "Xia Chuyi, please let me finish,"

"Because of this incident, Ou Cong has never been able to forgive himself. He believes he is a sinner, undeserving of a good life, so..."

At this point, Song Zhicheng paused, then said, "So, he has been deliberately indulgent in his behavior, making himself despised by people and hated by dogs..."

"Using this method to atone for the sins towards Ou Jiao, whose whereabouts are still unknown."

Xia Chuyi: ...

How idiotic must this Ou Ercong be to come up with such tactics!

Only to hear Song Zhicheng switch to an especially sincere tone, and said to Xia Chuyi, "So, I hope Xia Chuyi, you can forgive him."

Xia Chuyi finally understood that Song Zhicheng’s ultimate goal was to have Xia Chuyi stop blaming Ou Cong.

And then, to spare Ou Cong from the punishment he had received.

After thinking for a bit, Xia Chuyi spread her hands and said, "Honestly, I don’t really take those things he did against me to heart."

"Does that mean you can forgive him?" Song Zhicheng immediately asked.

Xia Chuyi shook her head and said, "Though I don’t blame him, I believe that if he has made a mistake, he should receive the punishment he deserves."

"Besides, Brother Shi Qian and Brother Ou, they just sent him to get tempered, right? They didn’t really do anything to him."

"From the bottom of my heart, I think he really should be tempered more."

Hearing this, Song Zhicheng’s lips tightened, and he fell silent.

Xia Chuyi continued, "Honestly, I think the main reason Second Young Master Ou has become so detestable is due to the indulgence of the people around him."

"Because he made a big mistake and feels guilty, everyone couldn’t bear to be strict with him?"

"Or is it that they knew how to discipline him but indulged him into becoming what he is today?"

Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but sigh and said, "Comrade Song Zhicheng, you were also one of the creators of the mistake. Why didn’t you end up like Ou Cong?"

After all, he was friends with Jiang Fengqi, and Xia Chuyi still trusted Jiang Fengqi’s judgment.

"I think if Ou Jiao is found one day, she probably wouldn’t like to see Ou Cong in his current state."

"Anyway, that’s my opinion. If I were Ou Jiao, I certainly wouldn’t forgive such a foolish brother."

After listening to her words, Song Zhicheng remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "I’m sorry, Xia Chuyi. I was presumptuous."

"I just think that one day, Ou Cong, he will come to a sudden realization, just like how Huo Shiqian did in the past."

Xia Chuyi: ...

"Sorry for disturbing you, I understand your point," Song Zhicheng sincerely said, "I also apologize to you on behalf of Ou Cong."

After saying this, Song Zhicheng left Jude.

Xia Chuyi didn’t dwell on it too much and met up with Huo Shiqian.

In the private room, the Peking duck was already sliced and served.

After the chef left, Xia Chuyi asked Huo Shiqian, "Do you know what Song Zhicheng wanted to talk to me about?"

Huo Shiqian nodded and said, "I can guess."

Xia Chuyi said, "He seems to have a good relationship with Ou Cong."

Huo Shiqian wrapped a piece of Peking duck for her and said, "Song Zhicheng also feels very guilty about that incident from the past."

"Therefore, the Ou and Song families made a private agreement that if Ou Jiao is found... Song Zhicheng will marry her."

Xia Chuyi: ??? What the hell?

Seeing her surprise, Huo Shiqian explained, "He’s worried that Ou Jiao might be sold to some unpleasant places."

"So, Song Zhicheng’s promise serves as a guarantee to the Ou family."

A guarantee that no matter what kind of treatment Ou Jiao received, there would still be someone willing to accept her.
