Chapter 19
Fantasy (1)
“That’s not true,” Song Yin tried to interject, but the maid continued speaking, ignoring her protests. “This morning, the Elder Miss took the Young Miss’s breakfast without permission. The Young Miss didn’t say anything and even brought water upstairs for the Elder Miss to drink. But instead of being grateful, the Elder Miss pushed the Young Miss down the stairs. It was lucky that the Young Miss didn’t fall.”
Song Yin scolded, “I told you not to talk about my sister anymore. Did you hear me?”
She had always been gentle at home, even when she reprimanded others. The maid held her hand and said, “Miss, how long will you hold it in? I think she is going to kill someone.”
Song Yin remained silent, and tears streamed down her face. She looked like she had been bullied.
Song Kai looked at Song Fan in disbelief. After last night, he changed his opinion of Song Fan. He thought that this sister had matured as she grew up and would not do the same things as she did when she was young.
The maid noticed that he was about to speak and felt satisfied. It would be best if the fourth young master kicked Song Fan out now. That way, she would not have to serve her anymore.
She might get a promotion if she protected the young miss. Thinking of this, she looked at Song Kai shyly and timidly. Among the four young masters, only he would come home occasionally. She had long fallen in love with this unrestrained young master.
Anyway, the Song family had four sons. Even if the youngest master married an ordinary girl, it was not a big deal. As long as she could make Song Kai fall in love with her, marrying a wealthy family was just around the corner. This was also why she always acted like the hostess of the house.
In her opinion, she was only one step away from becoming the wife of a wealthy man. She did not realize that this was only her fantasy.
Song Yin’s gentle personality would not get in her way, but she could not tolerate the sudden appearance of Song Fan.
“Sister didn’t do it on purpose. It’s all my fault that she didn’t stand properly.” Song Yin said. Her words made it even more obvious that Song Fan was bullying her.
Such a big show was really exciting. Song Fan laughed out loud and thought to herself, “Song Yin’s performance is even more exciting than on TV. It’s a pity that she doesn’t learn acting.”
Under such circumstances, Song Fan’s laugh was unusually conspicuous. Song Yin did not know why she suddenly smiled. Could it be that Song Fan had stayed in the countryside too long and gone crazy?
“When Song Yin fell, I didn’t lay a finger on her. She fell because she attempted to stop the maid. If you’re blaming me for this, there must be something seriously wrong with your reasoning.” Song Fan was typically reticent, but when she chose to argue, few could match her.
Hearing her explanation, Song Kai asked the maid with a fierce face, “Is that the case?”
The maid assumed that there were no surveillance cameras in the house, so she raised her head and stated, “It’s true that Miss was unsteady on her feet, but it’s all due to Elder Miss’s behavior since this morning. She not only took Miss’s breakfast but also refused her kind gestures. She even declined the water that Young Miss offered her.”
“It’s my choice whether to drink water or not. Besides, I didn’t push her.” After resolving the issue, Song Fan left.
However, when she was about to change her shoes, she suddenly stopped and took a few pushpins from her canvas shoes. Looking at the cold light at the sharp points, she could imagine what would happen if she stepped on them.
Song Fan did not touch the nails. She turned around and said, “The servants of the Song family are responsible. They even put nails in the master’s shoes. Do they want me to step on them and get hurt?”
Song Kai heard the nails and ran over hurriedly. He left Song Yin alone, still sitting on the steps, and asked nervously, “Are you hurt?”
Song Fan had already noticed that there was nothing wrong. She stopped Song Kai from picking up the nail and said,” Don’t touch them. Leave them for the police to check for fingerprints. Then, we’ll know who put them there.”
The nail was too small to extract a useful fingerprint, but Song Fan deliberately said this loudly for everyone to hear. The servants whispered to each other, wondering who had done this.
The maid’s face turned pale, and she could not help but tremble.
Song Kai’s gaze became sharper. “I’ll call the police to check the fingerprints. We’ll know who did it immediately. I’m going to send her to prison.”
Hearing Song Kai’s words, the maid immediately cried, “Young Master, please don’t call the police. I know I was wrong.”
When Song Kai heard her admit to it, he flew into a rage and shouted, “You did it on purpose. She would have been injured if Song Fan hadn’t looked and put on her shoes. I must call the police!”
The maid crawled over and said, “Young Master, I did this to avenge you. Please forgive me.”
Song Kai looked at the maid in confusion. What did this have to do with him?
