Meng Xia spoke with a submissive expression, “Aunt, I knew you were the best. I will listen to everything you say and make sure you stand firmly in the Song family.”
Meng Yu comfortingly held her hand, “You are my only niece, and I will treat you well, as long as you obey me.”
Although Meng Xia nodded with a smile, there was no trace of amusement in her eyes. Indeed, Meng Yu’s kindness came with conditions. A woman who could send her daughter to take the blame and secure the position of Mrs. Song could not genuinely care for her niece.
Back in her room, Meng Xia started to investigate information about Gu Chen. The more she searched online, the more impressed she became. In his early twenties, he inherited most of the Gu family’s industries in the capital. In just a few years, he expanded the family’s business, even gaining influence internationally.
What’s more, there was a lack of gossip or scandals around Gu Chen. His only companion was Song Fan.
Most online news was speculative, with comments from netizens praising the couple for being a perfect match with outstanding talents and beauty.
When Meng Xia read the phrase “a perfect match,” she took a deep breath, and a cold smile appeared on her face. If there was anything she lacked compared to Song Fan, it was probably her background. Despite having wealthy suitors in S City before, Meng Xia never liked to flaunt. She understood her position and purpose very well.
To become the mistress of a prominent family, she couldn’t have any stains on her reputation and shouldn’t casually associate with men. Men could be used, but she couldn’t let others know about any ambiguity with a particular person.
Upon thinking of Song Yin, Meng Xia sneered. They were originally in the same boat, but because Meng Yu schemed, not only did she harm her ex-husband, but she also secured the position of Mrs. Song. Song Yin’s status also rose with the tide, but all of this was in the past.
Upon considering Meng Yu’s promise, Meng Xia breathed a sigh of relief; now, with no one else available, she was the only choice.
The next day, Song Fan slept until noon and was awakened by the noise in the living room.
Upon feeling a bit annoyed, she changed into new clothes and opened the bedroom door.
“Xiao Xia, your injuries are so severe; you should go to the hospital,” Meng Yu anxiously said in the living room, looking at Meng Xia.
Song Fan also smelled a bit of blood; the Song family doctor had arrived and was bandaging Meng Xia.

He had slept late the previous night, and today he had plans to practice driving with friends. He hastily got up and rode a bike out. Maybe because he didn’t sleep well or he wasn’t feeling well, he felt dizzy right after starting, and his motorcycle nearly collided with a small truck coming from the opposite direction.
Fortunately, his starting speed was not fast, and Meng Xia happened to pass by. She pulled him hard, saving him from a potential accident. However, being a girl, when the motorcycle fell, it also hit her arm.
“Yes, Xiao Kai is right. You should go to the hospital. What if there’s a bone injury?” Meng Yu said softly, but her eyes occasionally glanced at Song Kai.
“A girl like you, with such a serious injury, what are we going to do in the future? Moreover, healing bones and tendons takes a few months. If something happens to you, how can I explain it to your parents?”
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, and she occasionally looked at Song Kai’s expression.
Today, Song Yi happened to be at home and heard the commotion. He walked out and asked, “What’s going on?”
Meng Yu cried with her head down, and Meng Xia smiled and said, “Uncle, it’s nothing. It’s just a minor injury. In a few days, I’ll be fine. When I go back, I won’t say much to my parents; you can rest assured.”
Upon hearing her say this, Song Kai immediately said, “Go home? How can you go home with such an injury? Aunt just said bone and tendon injuries take a hundred days.”
He was a little anxious, thinking that Meng Xia was injured because of him.
Moreover, he didn’t want Meng Xia to stay at home. He always felt that Meng Yu’s niece would harm Song Fan. At that moment, the situation seemed to have changed.
He wanted to suggest Meng Xia go to the hospital and he would take care of her, but considering she was a young girl, it might not be appropriate. Thus, he remained silent.
Upon seeing his hesitation, Meng Yu spoke with a hint of grievance, “It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t let her come to the Song family, nothing would have happened. She wouldn’t have been injured trying to save Xiao Kai. It’s all because. As her aunt, I didn’t fulfill my responsibility.”
Upon hearing the matter was related to her son, Song Yi furrowed his brow and asked, “She tried to save Xiao Kai? What happened?”
