Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
This revelation deeply shocked Song Yi, his eyes widening as he gazed at Meng Yu. He couldn’t fathom that she would resort to such measures. In his eyes, Meng Yu had always been gentle and elegant.
The four brothers hastily inquired, “Auntie Meng, what are you doing?”
Despite their reluctance to defend Song Yin, the circumstances compelled them to speak up.
Meng Yu found herself unable to articulate anything. She could only repeatedly emphasize that Song Yin was not in good spirits and was still talking nonsense.
At this moment, Tingting and the others descended from upstairs. Song Fan strolled at the back, appearing quite composed.
Song Yi questioned, “Is Tingting here to visit Yinyin?” He then shifted his gaze to Gu Zhuo, unfamiliar with him.
Gu Zhuo introduced himself, “My name is Gu Zhuo. I’m the son of Gu Hai, the manager of the Gu Corporation. I’m a student from Song Fan’s class, visiting her today.”
“Then what happened just now?” Song Huai pressed, eager for someone else to corroborate and expose Meng Yu’s true colors.
Tingting couldn’t help but share, “It was so scary just now. The moment I entered the room, I saw Song Yin tied to the bed. The rope was thick. People were watching her from the side. This is what it’s like to be in prison.”
Gu Zhuo nodded in agreement, stating, “Tingting is right. This is indeed the case. Moreover, Song Yin’s expressions and words are normal. There’s nothing wrong with her. No matter how you look at it, she shouldn’t have been tied up.”
Meng Yu hastily intervened, “That’s because Yinyin was hungry and was eating, so she looked normal. However, she hasn’t recovered yet. You all saw what Yinyin was like before. She was babbling nonsense and couldn’t be restrained. I could only tie her up.”
“That was before,” Song Ting interjected. “We haven’t seen Song Yin for a few days. No one knows how she’s been these past few days.”
“Yeah, we thought you were Song Yin’s biological mother and would take good care of her. We didn’t expect such a thing to happen,” Song Chuan added angrily.
Meng Yu felt furious with these children. If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have let them in. Despite asserting that Song Yin was sick, they had broken in regardless.
Regardless of her anger, she had to clarify the situation. Tearfully, Meng Yu said, “I’m doing this for Yinyin’s own good. My heart aches to tie her up, but this is the best way. I don’t want to send her to a mental hospital. I want to take care of her.”
Afterward, she couldn’t hold on any longer, collapsing to the ground in tears. She portrayed the image of a mother deeply devoted to her child.
However, Song Yin wouldn’t be fooled. She knew her mother wanted her to take the blame, so she began crying like Meng Yu.
Learning the art of crying from Meng Yu, the mother and daughter appeared identical when in tears. They both seemed very pitiful as if they had a reason.
The four brothers felt nothing. After discovering that these two individuals had framed Song Fan and caused their little sister so much suffering, they no longer harbored any sympathy for this mother and daughter.
Song Yi assisted them to the sofa. Upon seeing that they were about to ask questions, Tingting stated, “I’ve been here for a long time. It’s time to go home.”
Song Yi couldn’t stop her from leaving, but she was also a witness to what happened. He could only reluctantly offer, “I’ll get someone to send you back.”
Tingting declined the offer, as her chauffeur was still waiting outside. She swiftly ran out.
Gu Zhuo took a seat and remarked, “It’s the same if I’m here. I saw what happened just now.”
This line of questioning was naturally handed over to Song Huai. As a detective, he possessed a wealth of experience.
After taking a seat, he asked Song Yin, “Tell me when you woke up and what happened just now.”
“Yinyin has just woken up. Let me explain,” Meng Yu rushed to say.
Song Huai remained unmoved, “I am asking Song Yin now. Auntie, it’s best if you don’t speak.”
Song Yin quickly recounted everything that had happened during this period. However, she omitted the fact that she had heard Meng Yu asking her to take the blame, making it seem like she didn’t know anything.
Song Huai turned to look at Meng Yu. “Then why did you lock Song Yin up? You know that she’s awake and doesn’t need to be tied up.”
Meng Yu sighed and explained, “Some time ago, Yinyin also had a moment of lucidity, but very quickly, she started to talk nonsense again. I didn’t dare to let
go of her..”
