Upon witnessing this scene, Gu Zhuo sighed. “There’s no way to compare.”
Song Fan understood his implication, suggesting that Song Yin couldn’t compete with Meng Yu in cunning. Uttering this was akin to negating all of Song Yin’s explanations.
Regardless of what she said, it seemed futile, and everyone perceived her as lying, attempting to shift the blame onto her mother — what an unfilial daughter.
“So that’s the reason I was banished to the countryside back then,” Song Fan sneered. “I was still a child. I couldn’t outsmart someone like her.”
Gu Zhuo quickly concurred, “If my father had married such a woman when I was young, I’m afraid he would have been lying in his grave long ago, never given the chance to grow up.”
Song Yi reprimanded Song Yin, “Listen to what you’re saying. Your mother loves you so much. Why don’t you think of repaying her?”
Knowing that Meng Yu was feigning emotions, Song Yin pushed her away, asserting, “You’re all blind. In the past, you believed her and sent Song Fan away. Now, you have to believe her and send me away. One day, all of you will die at her hands, just like Yu Wan.”
“Shut up!” Not only Song Yi and the four Song brothers, but others also couldn’t endure it any longer.
Yu Wan was the painful memory of the entire Song family, and they wouldn’t tolerate anyone mentioning her in such a way.
Song Yin, aware that she couldn’t escape punishment, laughed loudly and declared, “Why pretend to be sentimental now? Back then, Yu Wan loved Song Fan the most. After his death, you sent Song Fan to the countryside and neglected him for so many years. You’ve let Yu Wan down.”
This statement struck at their hearts, a reminder of the guilt they felt toward everyone.
At this moment, Song Fan stood up and said, “No matter how wrong they are, they’ve never harmed anyone. You’re a year younger than me, yet you’re able to drug someone. You relied on me to gain favor in the wealthy circle, then kicked me to the countryside. Have you ever thought that you would be discovered one
“I’m clearly better than everyone else, but you’re the daughter of a wealthy family, and I don’t even have a father. This is unfair,” Song Yin shouted.
Song Fan was genuinely irked by this argument. She couldn’t choose the family she was born into, but she could choose to be a good person rather than a bad one.
“You’re already living better than most people. After losing your father, my mother has always helped you and your mother. Moreover, I treat you as my best friend. You’re just greedy for other people’s things.”
Song Fan’s words dismantled Song Yin’s facade. She had always stood against Song Fan, feeling superior due to her background. Her actions were intended to prove that she was better than Song Fan.
However, Song Ting snorted and said, “If everyone thinks that way, they can use harmful means to take over the magpie’s nest. Someone will also harm you and replace your position.”
While life might be unfair, confronting such situations should prompt one to strive for improvement instead of resorting to dirty means to drag others down.
Overwhelmed, Song Yin burst into tears. Meng Yu, seemingly eager to hug her and portray herself as a loving mother, was met with Song Yin’s sharp rejection.
“Don’t come over. When you planned to sacrifice me, you were no longer my mother. I heard you say that you wanted to push all the blame on me, but I still had the illusion of cooperating with your imprisonment. I didn’t expect you to do that. As long as I live in this world, I will always hate you. The things you pursue will also be lost!”
This final sentence served as Song Yin’s curse on Meng Yu. She believed Song Fan would make her pay the price. After all, Song Fan was no longer the easily deceived girl she once was.
Meng Yu turned around, collapsing onto the sofa. Though appearing wounded by the child’s words, it was a guise to hide her ferocious expression. She didn’t anticipate that her carelessness would lead to this outcome. Had Song Yin not heard her words, perhaps the situation would not have escalated in this manner.
Not only did Song Yin’s plan crumble, but the trust she had built over the years within the Song family had also dissipated.
The Song family members were now suspicious of her, particularly in matters related to Yu Wan.
Meng Yu knew she had to prove her innocence regarding Yu Wan’s death; otherwise, she risked being ousted from the Song family..
