"It’s the Lady..." Chi Rui said, "Didn’t the Lady arrange for someone to interview the family of the victims yesterday? The report was published as scheduled today and could have stirred up a significant uproar, but now, somehow, some photos of the Lady visiting Shangming Hospital yesterday have leaked online, claiming she’s colluding with the victims to frame her stepmother and stepsister... Now there’s all sorts of talk outside, and it’s already chaotic!"
In the bathroom of her bedroom, as Shi Nuan heard Ji Xia’s words, she felt as if a bucket of cold water had been dumped on her heart.
She bit her lip and asked, "How... how could someone secretly take photos of me?"
Ji Xia was also puzzled and said, "I’m trying to find out, but there are currently no clues... Anyway, Nuannuan, it’s best for you to stay in the Song Mansion, don’t go anywhere, leave the rest to me!"
The matter of Shi Nuan visiting Shangming Hospital yesterday was known to Song Yansheng as well. Now that the report is out, Shi Nuan doesn’t care if Song Yansheng suspects her.
She just found it odd because Ji Xia said that in the exposed photos online, Yao Ziwan, who was with her, wasn’t there, only her alone.
It seemed intentionally meant to avoid implicating her relationship with Song Yansheng!
Thinking about it, if Yao Ziwan were also exposed, then the so-called "framing" wouldn’t stand.
After all, there was no enmity between Song Yansheng and the Shi Family, and he had almost no intersections with Li Guirong and her daughter, so there was no need to frame them!
After a moment of contemplation, a detail suddenly flashed in Shi Nuan’s mind, she asked Ji Xia, "Sister Xia, I remember you telling me yesterday that Sister Qingyang went to the hospital?"
"Yes..." Ji Xia said, "But I’ve checked, and Song Qingyang had scheduled a doctor’s appointment three days in advance, and by the time she arrived, you had already left a long time ago... What’s more, since the person took secret photos and released them at such a time, they must know what we’re doing. If so, how could they possibly expose their target to us?"
Shi Nuan lowered her eyebrows, feeling a bit ashamed.
Song Qingyang had been quite good to her in the past; if it weren’t for her marriage to Song Yansheng, their relationship wouldn’t have turned out !
She shouldn’t have been the first to cast suspicion at her, it was really wrong!
"Nuannuan..." Ji Xia hesitated for a moment before saying, "Since this person is so aware of our plan, do you think it might be..."
"No... it’s not him!"
Before Ji Xia could finish, Shi Nuan immediately denied, "Song Yansheng is currently on the same side as us, he wouldn’t... wouldn’t do such a thing..."
"But Nuannuan, aside from him, no one knows you were going to the hospital, right?"
Shi Nuan frowned, her fingers gripping the phone tightly. After a few seconds, she said again, "No... it wasn’t Song Yansheng, I vouch for it with my word, it’s definitely not him!"
Ji Xia was taken aback and asked, "Nuannuan, why... why do you believe in him so much?"
Shi Nuan’s gaze wavered; she couldn’t quite explain why she trusted him.
But she just felt that it wasn’t Song Yansheng, it definitely wasn’t him!
Taking a deep breath, Shi Nuan said, "Sister Xia, since we’ve chosen to rely on Song Yansheng, we should give him all our trust. Now’s not the time to wildly suspect everyone, but to think about how we can solve this issue!"
Xiao Wujun: Let me say, both Second Uncle and Nuannuan are incredibly sensitive people. Their experiences and encounters have shaped such personalities. Second Uncle nurtures subtly and Nuannuan is already deeply entrapped without realizing it, this is the effect I wanted! (Evil laugh~)
