Chapter 741: Family
Song Ning readily agreed and asked Director Wang about the patients.
Director Wang sighed. “One of the patients’ grandmother is my aunt. My aunt fell in love with a married man when she was young. Later, my aunt brought my cousin with her and married that man. He’s one of the richest men in S City. His surname is Yin. You might not know the Yin family, but it’s a prominent family in S City.”
Song Ning’s heart skipped a beat. She had been thinking of how to investigate the Yin family, but the opportunity came knocking on her door.
Seeing that Song Ning was listening attentively, Director Wang continued to say, “The Yin family is quite influential. My aunt is blessed. No matter what, that man didn’t let her down. His first wife divorced him and left her son and granddaughter behind. For some reason, her daughter-in-law left with her. After that, her son married a young woman from a wealthy family as well, and they had a son and a daughter. Doesn’t it sound very messy?”
Director Wang sighed.
Song Ning feigned a curious expression. No matter the time and place, gossiping had always been a way to build closer relationships. She said, “You mean to say that Old Master Yin’s current marriage is his second marriage. The former Old Madam Yin left her son in the Yin family, and her son is also married twice like his father. The former Old Madam Yin’s daughter-in-law also left her daughter behind in the Yin family, and her son’s current wife also gave birth to two children for him?”
Director Wang was slightly surprised. “Dr. Song, how did you manage to sort their relationships out so quickly?”
Song Ning smiled. “Director Wang, you explained it so clearly. How could I not understand?”
Director Wang was very encouraged by Song Ning’s words, thinking, logic, and expression. So, she continued to say, “My cousin’s name is Yin Yang, and the name of former Old Madam Yin’s son, whom she left behind, is Yin Bin. My cousin and Yin Bin are very competitive. When Yin Yang got married, Yin Bin also married his second wife. Then, their wives gave birth to sons, and the sons carried the fates of their fathers and competed with each other as well. Since young, their lives are like something out of a melodrama.”
Song Ning naturally knew that Yin Yang and Yin Bin’s sons were Cheng Che’s cousin and half-brother respectively. She asked probingly, “Friendly competitions are good, right? My good friend and I always competed in our studies in the past. It also strengthened our friendship a lot. From studying together, we’re now working together. It’s rare to have a companion growing up together with you…”
…
Director Wang sighed. “It’s a pity those two aren’t as sensible as you and your friend. Moreover, their parents were also competing with each other at the same time. In the end, they grew up taking the crooked path. From just competing with each other, they began to sabotage each other. It’s only natural that something bad happened because of that.”
Song Ning was shocked. Mu Chen and Jiang Jin had sent people to investigate the Yin family, but they did not find out much. She did not expect she would be able to obtain information so easily. Finally, she asked, “What’s wrong? What happened?”
Director Wang hesitated.
Upon seeing this, Song Ning looked around and lowered her voice as she said, “I understand. It must be hard to speak about the secrets of wealthy families…”
Song Ning’s expression was sincere and restrained, and it had the right amount of curiosity. This made Director Wang very satisfied.
