Since Song Fan had already spoken, Song Kai stepped forward. “Dad, this matter must be investigated.”
“I’ve already handed this matter over to Song Huai,” Song Ting quickly interjected as he entered the room.
He had been standing at the door, listening to the entire conversation, waiting for this moment to speak.
He had a better understanding of what had transpired, unlike Song Kai, who was just learning about it. He had pieced together what had happened and felt sympathy for Song Fan’s ordeal.
Therefore, he was determined to make his father understand the situation so that justice could be served.
Meng Yu maintained her gentle smile, showing no change in her expression even after hearing this news. Her ability to disguise her true feelings was truly remarkable.
“It’s right to leave it to Xiaohuai. It’s better to settle our family’s matters at home,” Meng Yu said, offering her support.
Song Yi agreed, “Xiaohuai is also an expert in this area. He’s the most suitable for the investigation.”
Song Fan remained silent, not expressing her opinion. She had only intended to teach Song Yin a lesson and didn’t expect the situation to escalate this far.
Furthermore, the perfumed powder Song Yin had inhaled was not ordinary; it had likely affected her beyond just this incident, which brought her satisfaction.
Song Fan didn’t want to see Song Yi. After hearing the discussion, she went straight upstairs, leaving Song Yi, who had wanted to talk to her, feeling somewhat awkward.
Song Ting walked over to his father and said, “Dad, the way you treated her before sending her away was too harsh. Little Sister is in this state because she couldn’t forget it.”
Song Yi sighed. “I know I let her down. If she was truly wronged, I’ll do my best to make it up to her.”
Meng Yu provided words of comfort, though they appeared to be of little real value. She played the role of a devoted wife and mother.
However, Song Ting saw things differently. In his eyes, the final beneficiaries of that childhood incident were only Meng Yu and her daughter. Moreover, it was Song Yin who had come forward to testify against Song Fan, claiming that they had no involvement in it, and he was the first to disbelieve them.
Initially, Song Ting had great respect for Aunt Meng, who had been there for his father. After all, she had been very kind to the three brothers over the years.
He now understood that Meng Yu’s kindness was never without ulterior motives. She had gained something from the family’s previous incidents, be it medical assistance from Song Ting, investigations by Song Huai, or help from Song Chuan.
Song Huai was currently watching a competition in M Country, specifically Song Chuan’s archery event.
As a representative of the nation, Song Chuan faced immense pressure.
Despite the stress, Song Chuan maintained a smile, but only Song Huai could sense his brother’s nervousness.
“Second brother, you’ll achieve excellent results. Just apply your training standards,” Song Huai said, giving his brother a reassuring pat on the shoulder. Song Chuan took a deep breath. “Yes, I have to believe in myself.”
When Song Chuan took the stage and prepared to shoot, Song Huai felt the anxiety well up inside him. Although he had expressed his belief in his second brother, the outcome of a competition was always uncertain. He could only pray fervently that Song Chuan would succeed.
Song Chuan stepped onto the field, his whole demeanor becoming calm. He had a serious expression as he pulled the bowstring, aimed, and then released it.
An arrow soared through the air like this, but Song Huai couldn’t see the target on the field. He anxiously waited for the results to be announced.
The first arrow achieved an excellent result, hitting the bullseye. However, there were still other arrows to be shot, so Song Huai could only continue to be nervous.
Meanwhile, Song Ting’s alarm clock, set to coincide with a competition in M Country, rang. Since there was a time difference, he had set the alarm to call immediately after the event concluded.
He was aware of Song Chuan’s likely nervousness, so he chose to contact Song
Huai.
As soon as the call connected, Song Huai shouted excitedly, “Champion! Second Brother is the champion!”
The jubilation was infectious, and Song Ting enthusiastically responded, “I knew Song Chuan would win.”
“Big Brother, Second Brother, and I will be flying back tomorrow. How’s everything with the family?” Song Huai inquired.
Song Ting proceeded to update his brother on the recent family events. After hearing the account, Song Huai fell silent. It took him a moment to collect his thoughts before stating, “I think there’s no need to continue the investigation.
It was Meng Yu and her daughter who were responsible.”
Song Huai had been a detective for many years, and he had an acute sense of uncovering the truth. The situation was straightforward.
“I understand, but we need evidence to prove our little sister’s innocence,” Song Ting said.
Song Huai nodded. “When I return, I’ll be able to resolve this matter smoothly. Anyone who wants to harm my family will have to pay the price.”
After Song Huai hung up the phone, Song Chuan asked with confusion, “Big brother mentioned little sister. Did he and little sister make up?”
“It was us who realized that little sister was not at fault at all.” Song Huai sighed..
