C23 Soong Shuling Called and Immortal Reverent Shed Tears

“You actually remember to call me? I can’t believe you skipped class and went out to play again! When will you learn how to be more responsible?”

After hearing his mother’s familiar voice scolding him, the invincible Tribulation Cross Immortal Sovereign had tears streaming down his face one by one.

“Ran? Are you still there? Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Meng Ran’s eyes were moist with tears. He suppressed the tremor in his voice and said with a bright smile on his face, “Mom, I’ve missed you so much.”

After he said that, Meng Ran couldn’t take it anymore. He directly flew to the sofa and used a pillow to suppress his cries. He didn’t want his mother to know that he was crying.

Everyone thought cultivators were heartless and didn’t have any heart to speak of.

However, Meng Ran was the exact opposite. He always thought that if people had no feelings, they were no longer human or were as good as dead.

After chatting with some of the supreme giants who had lived for millions of years, Meng Ran managed to learn a few things. They all agreed on one thing: If one were to grasp the power of time and space after leveling up to the Heavenly Tribulation cultivation level, it was very likely that one would be able to move against the flow of time and space and change history!

This was the reason why Meng Ran was doing everything he could to cultivate with all his might. It was because he missed his parents so much and wanted to spend more time with them.

In fact, ever since he was a young lad, he had been away from Soong Shuling a lot. The time he spent with Soong Shuling wasn’t nearly as much as when he was with his good friend, Zhang Tao.

As it turned out, Soong Shuling was a strong woman. She wanted to show her family that her marriage with Meng Changan was a good one. She also wanted to give Meng Ran a good life, so Soong Shuling worked hard every day.

After the Maple Birch Group was taken over by Lu Shaoqian, all of Soong Shuling’s life efforts went directly down the drain. When this happened, she wanted nothing more than to return to Meng Ran and her husband’s side, but an accident occurred to prevent her return.

Soong Shuling’s last words while lying in the ICU bed echoed in his mind, “Ran, I regret everything. I want nothing more than to stay by your side.”

“What’s the matter? Why are you crying? Did you get into trouble again?”

Soong Shuling could only hear a weak sobbing sound come from the other side of the phone. Her son was acting very strangely today. What was wrong with him? This child hadn’t said he missed her for years now. Furthermore, was that a tremor in his voice that she detected? He must be really crying. What has gotten into him?!

After calming down somewhat, Meng Ran wiped away the tears at the corners of his eyes and said in a gentle voice, “Mom, I’m okay. Don’t worry about it. You have to take care of yourself too. Rest often, and don’t tire yourself all day because of work. I’ll try and see you in a while. In the meantime, I’ll support this family and never let you work hard again!”

After the words entered her ears, Soong Shuling didn’t say anything. Meng Ran thought that Soong Shuling must be busy with other matters, so he said, “Mom, if you’re busy at the moment, go ahead. I’ll go to school now.”

His mother continued to remain silent, so Meng Ran simply hung up the call.

Simultaneously, in an office building in Jiangnan Province, the office on the top floor.

A middle-aged woman dressed in a black uniform covered her face with her hands and sobbed silently into them.

A knock suddenly sounded out from outside the door, and Soong Shuling quickly wiped her wet face and straightened her clothes. “Please come in.”

A tall beauty immediately walked into the room. When Soong Shuling saw who it was, her expression showed a touch of pampering, “Fangfei, is anything the matter?”

The tall woman spoke her next words with some difficulty. “President Soong, something happened at the construction of a branch company in your hometown. The Deputy General Manager wants to buy a piece of land and build a branch company on that site, but the residents of this spot don’t want to cooperate. They absolutely refuse to move away.”

Soong Shuling thought it over for a while and then said in a soft voice, “Then pay them more demolition fees. If they’re still not willing to move away, then forget about this matter. Also, remind Lil Wang to avoid any forceful evictions or demolitions. I don’t want these residents to lose their homes because of us.”

The tall girl nodded her head and closed the office door behind her as she left.

Shortly afterward, she got a message from Meng Ran.

“Ran, I had to see a client just now. So I could only get back to you now. Mom will listen to you. In the future, you should take care of yourself. I miss you a lot, too. After I finish this task, I’ll head to Jiangzhou to see you soon.

"Signed, Your Mother Who Loves You the Most."

Perhaps the happiest things in life are for your loved ones to tell you they love you and that they’ll never leave you.
