1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 358 I'll break your legs!

The paparazzi, having uncovered a major scoop, urgently contacted the newspaper. Upon hearing that it concerned Song Ershao, the editor-in-chief immediately dispatched reinforcements.

The paparazzi's car followed them all the way to Victoria Peak. It was impossible to go any further, so they had no choice but to set up camp there and wait in their car.

The editor-in-chief originally wanted to publish it immediately, but after much deliberation, he finally restrained his impulsive hand.

Song Peiqing has never brought a woman to the Song family mansion before. No matter what kind of star or Miss Hong Kong she is, she has never had this honor. This time, he picked her up and went straight to Victoria Peak. Could she be the future daughter-in-law that the family has in mind?

This is no ordinary gossip; it's absolutely a major news story that will shock the entire city of Hong Kong.

After confirming that only their own staff had taken the photos, the editor-in-chief decided to take a gamble.

He'll wait, he'll just wait down at Victoria Peak, he's determined to get a good shot!

Instead of the mysterious woman, they encountered Song Peiqing's antics with the city's most famous chefs, adding two more pieces of irrefutable evidence to the shocking news story—

1. Young Master Song is willing to run errands for his new love.

2. The new lover has stayed at the Song family's old house for three days and has not yet left.

This is definitely the Song family's ideal daughter-in-law. If she guesses right, she'll become famous overnight; if she guesses wrong, she'll gain a lot of attention. Either way, she's in a good position.

Seeing that Song Peiqing's bizarre behavior had attracted the attention of his peers, the editor-in-chief couldn't hold back any longer and released this explosive news on the front page of the latest issue.

It was truly explosive; it was so shocking that Song Peiqing was dragged out of bed by his own father.

"Aaaaaaah! Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, what are you doing?!"

Song Jingting was furious, but when he saw his good-for-nothing son sleeping soundly with a rosy complexion, he was even more enraged.

"Look what you've done!" He threw a pile of newspapers at Song Peiqing's face. The top page had the spendthrift's smiling face printed on it, and he felt like his throat was about to swell with anger.

That brat, he managed to cause such a big mess just by picking up someone. Luckily, the paparazzi didn't get a clear picture of Lu Youyou's face, or he wouldn't know how to explain it to people.

Even though Song Peiqing was still sleepy, he was woken up. When he saw what was written in the newspaper, he was instantly struck dumb.

"Dad, I'm innocent! I deliberately changed to a regular car that day and didn't tell anyone..." Before he could finish speaking, he seemed to be choked and asked tremblingly, "Dad, did my cousin-in-law...didn't see anything?"

Song Jingting sneered: "What do you think? You think everyone sleeps until noon like you?!"

Song Peiqing's eyes drooped instantly, and his handsome face looked ten times more gloomy.

Oh no, what should he do? How can he face his cousin's wife? Oh God, someone save him!
"Get up right now and apologize to Youyou. You have half a day to resolve this, or I'll break your legs!"

Song Peiqing hadn't faced the threat of having his leg broken for many years, so he didn't dare waste a second. He finished washing up in five minutes and went downstairs to apologize.

Actually, Lu Youyou was only shocked for a moment; she found it more amusing.

She never imagined in her life that she would become the subject of a Hong Kong tabloid; the experience was truly novel.

Furthermore, Song Jingting contacted Apple Daily immediately and confirmed that they had not captured a clear photo of the "mystery woman," which put her mind at ease.

Lu Youyou didn't have time for these gossip stories. The equipment was arriving in Hong Kong today, and she also had to visit Hong Kong City University; her schedule was quite tight. "Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry, it's all my fault, I was careless. Don't worry, I'll publish a clarification in the newspaper right away, it definitely won't affect your work!"

Lu Youyou smiled and nodded: "It's not your fault. Consider it a local experience for me. The paparazzi in Hong Kong really are everywhere."

Even Song Peiqing's thick skin, honed through countless trials, couldn't hide the blush that showed through it. He cautiously observed Lu Youyou's expression, only feeling somewhat relieved after confirming that she wasn't angry.

He now regards this cousin-in-law as a revered figure in his heart. He feels guilty for even the slightest slight, let alone being joking or laughing with her.

Song Peiqing instructed his assistant to contact major newspapers to publish an emergency statement clarifying that the "mysterious woman" was a relative of the Song family and also a distinguished guest, and that any further defamation or rumors would be reported to the police and prosecuted.

The citizens of Hong Kong have been bombarded with juicy gossip, and Song Peiqing has never published a clarification in the newspapers despite numerous other scandals, which shows just how big this incident has become.

What followed was witnessed by the entire Hong Kong community. Song Peiqing showed no mercy and took Apple Weekly to court in the name of the Song Group.

This suppressed the public's curiosity, but it piqued the curiosity of other prominent families.

Statements and such are unimportant; they're just normal public relations tactics. What they care about is that "relative."

A fiancée is considered a future relative, and after marriage, they become "real" relatives. Besides, how can a daughter-in-law not be a distinguished guest?
Although no one has ever compiled statistics, the Song family is undoubtedly the richest family in Hong Kong, and the marriage of the second son of the Song family has always been the focus of everyone's attention.

Song Jingting said he had accomplished nothing, but in other people's eyes, it was just that the second son was unwilling to compete with his eldest brother. He also runs his own investment company and is doing quite well.

As for romantic affairs, those are trivial matters. What family would consider such things when choosing a son-in-law? As long as there are no premarital pregnancies, anything goes.

Moreover, Song Peiqing wasn't juggling multiple relationships at the same time. He would break up with one person and then start another. Is there a problem with that? Shouldn't we praise him as a dashing and romantic figure?

Many wealthy families regarded Song Peiqing as a perfect son-in-law, but now a mysterious woman has suddenly appeared, and she is even suspected of being recognized by Song Jingting. This has made many people uneasy.

Song Peiqing's cell phone rang all day long, with people, both acquaintances and strangers, coming to inquire whether he really had a girlfriend.

Song Jingting's side was also not quiet. No matter how high his status was, he still had a few close friends. For the sake of his daughter and granddaughter, he had to keep things in mind.

Originally, Song Peiqing was supposed to take Lu Youyou to the port today, but Song Jingting simply abandoned his son and sent his chairman's secretary and personal assistant to accompany them.

If he saw the spendthrift's name in the tabloids again, he feared he would be unable to resist kicking him out of the house.

Lu Youyou wore a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses this time, so even the highest magnification lens couldn't capture her face. As for the last-minute change of guide, she didn't care, since her two secretaries were far more professional than Song Peiqing.

Hong Kong City, Kwai Tsing District
Since the 60s, the Kwai Chung Cargo Terminal has gradually replaced the Kowloon Wharf Terminal in Tsim Sha Tsui as the leading cargo terminal, and the cargo company that owns the terminal is a subsidiary of the Song family.

With the chairman's right-hand man personally present at the dock, the procedures were naturally smooth, and Lu Youyou soon saw the experimental equipment she had been waiting for.

These big items are not only expensive, but also have long waiting times. If it weren't for the Song family's efforts in the United States, she would have had a hard time buying 80 or 90 percent of them at once.

The secretary didn't understand the equipment, but he was good at reading people. Seeing Lu Youyou's relaxed expression and the smile on her lips, he knew that the mission should be completed smoothly.

"Ms. Lu, please feel free to point out any errors or omissions. We will be responsible for replacing any damaged items."

"So far, everything seems fine, but we'll have to wait until it's fully installed to see how it goes."

The secretary smiled and nodded: "The chairman instructed me to personally go to Tianjin to pick up the ship and wait until all the equipment is debugged before leaving. If you need anything else, just give me the list."
