The answers provided by the two differed, yet in Song Huai’s mind, this matter had already reached its conclusion. It was evident that Meng Yu orchestrated a series of events. Not only did she harm her younger sister, but she also caused the death of her mother.
If it weren’t for legal consequences, Song Huai genuinely wished to end Meng yu’S lite at tnat very moment.
Their family had been deceived by her. When her mother was alive, she showered affection on her younger sister. After her departure, no one in the family took proper care of Song Fan.
“Song Yin claimed that Auntie Meng gave her the poison. Do you have any evidence?” Song Ting inquired.
Song Yin promptly nodded. “The servant named Li Ping is my Mom’s subordinate. She’s responsible for obtaining poison. My Mom purchased it at a high price and then instructed me to put it in Song Kai’s soup.”
Song Chuan didn’t dare to waste any time. He swiftly stood up and went upstairs to summon Li Ping. Upon seeing Meng Yu and her daughter in a worse state than before, Li Ping was frightened to the point that she couldn’t stand up.
Her behavior was visibly suspicious. Song Huai questioned her about Song Yin’s recent statements.
Li Ping, terrified, nearly knelt on the ground, vigorously shaking her head and stammering, “I don’t know, I don’t know.”
She dared not reveal anything. Having followed Meng Yu’s orders for many years, the fate of her family rested in her hands. Any disclosure could lead to dire consequences for her loved ones.
Meng Yu wasn’t concerned about Li Ping exposing her. Amidst her tears, she pondered how to nurture Xiao Xia. As for Song Yin, who had betrayed her, she was already considered dead to her.
Anticipating Li Ping’s response, Song Ting remarked, “If you don’t want to divulge the truth, that’s fine. I’ll have someone investigate all your relatives, and they’ll pay a price. I believe you can handle it.”
Li Ping didn’t expect Song Ting to say that. He was threatening her openly, but she knew Song Ting was entirely capable of such actions.
Upon having been part of the Song family for years, she witnessed Song Ting’s management style and heard tales of his ruthless business practices. Among the four Song brothers, Song Ting was undoubtedly ruthless, and she dared not offend him.
Li Ping never imagined that she would find herself in such a predicament. It seemed she wouldn’t have a favorable outcome, whether she spoke the truth or not.
As she hesitated, Song Ting smiled, “Of course, if you tell me the truth, I won’t make things difficult for your family. I’ll ensure their well-being. Otherwise, considering the character of the person you’re loyal to, even if you stay silent, your family may not fare well.”
Li Ping was suddenly in a panic. Having followed Meng Yu for so many years, she naturally knew that Meng Yu was capable of such things. Moreover, since Meng Yu could even abandon her biological daughter, she wouldn’t show mercy to Li Ping’s family.
Li Ping immediately spoke up. “I’ll talk. I don’t know what poison it is. I only know that Miss Song Yin took something and put it in the Fourth Young Master’s soup.”
Though she sensed that Meng Yu was aware of this, she lacked evidence to
prove it. So, she compromised and shared the information, satisfying both
sides.
Meng Yu felt a sense of relief when Li Ping made her appearance. Back then, she hadn’t entirely trusted Li Ping, so she hadn’t informed her of many details. Even if she had summoned her, it would have been futile.
She resolved to shift the blame onto Song Yin. Even the evidence from the past wouldn’t implicate her. It could only demonstrate that Song Yin had put the poison in the food. contemporary romance
Song Yin was unaware that her mother had orchestrated everything. Over a decade ago, Meng Yu had prepared her to shoulder all of this. She provided
Song Yin with poison, falsely claiming that Li Ping had purchased it. In reality, Meng Yu had acquired the poison.
Meng Yu was determined not to leave any evidence that could be used against her. If she couldn’t avoid it, she would push the blame onto Song Yin.
It wasn’t that she lacked maternal love, but her original plan was to marry Song Yin into a wealthy family. Once achieved, any evidence would be inconsequential.
She was merely guarding against the possibility of evidence emerging to attack her. After all, in the Song family, she was like duckweed—despite having been married into the family for many years, she remained an outsider.
Song Yin was taken aback by Li Ping’s revelation. Distraught, she exclaimed, “You’re lying! You were the one who bought the poison from outside. You orchestrated everything. Now, you’re attempting to pin it on me!”
Meng Yu rushed over and embraced Song Yin. “Don’t get agitated. As long as you’re happy, I’ll do whatever it takes. I’ll go to the police station tomorrow and plead guilty. You just need to live well..”
