Zhong Tingsong neither said he would look for them nor not. Instead, he said, "If you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? Logically speaking, you changed the fate of two children. If you had treated Wen Shu well and made her remember your kindness to this day, even if the Lin family hated you, they would have let you go for Wen Shu's sake. But now..."
Zhong Tingsong gave a bitter smile: "I'm afraid Wen Shu will hate you too much to even say a good word for you!"
Su Ying covered her face with her hands, "How could I have known..."
Zhong Tingsong didn't want to say much to her. "This is all your fault. Since things have come to this, I don't want to say anything more. Just stay at home for the next couple of days and don't go out."
Su Ying agreed verbally, but in her heart she was still thinking, "What should we do later? What about Jing Yu's wedding?"
After saying these words to her, Zhong Tingsong drove off.
He didn't go anywhere else, but went straight to see Zhong Wanwan.
Zhong Wanwan had gained weight and looked somewhat haggard. She lacked her former arrogance and seemed devoid of energy. It appeared that her time in captivity was not easy.
She sat down in the meeting room. "Dad, what brings you here to see me today?"
Zhong Tingsong sighed, "Some things happened today, and I suddenly wanted to come and see you."
Zhong Wanwan lowered her head and said, "Oh, it seems that things didn't go well, otherwise you wouldn't have thought of coming to a place like this."
Zhong Tingsong nodded, asked about Zhong Wanwan's health and diet, and finally asked, "I have a few questions for you about Su Ying."
Zhong Wanwan's face stiffened, thinking that Su Ying was trying to sow discord between her and her father. She hurriedly said, "I don't know what Su Ying said, but I'm locked up here and can't do anything I want."
Zhong Tingsong shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with you. Your Aunt Su has been sued, and it looks like she'll most likely go to jail."
Zhong Wanwan was taken aback. "Dad, are you serious or not?"
Zhong Tingsong roughly recounted what had happened online to Zhong Wanwan.
Upon hearing this, Zhong Wanwan's eyes blazed with fury, a mixture of smugness and gritted teeth: "Su Ying has been sued, and she's going to jail too? Good! Good! It seems Su Ying's retribution has come!"
Zhong Tingsong asked, "How much do you know about Su Ying? For so long, I've been deceived by him and didn't know his true colors. Now that I know the truth, I'm very worried about whether Su Ying has been abusing you and Xuyan behind my back since we were little."
Zhong Wanwan looked at Zhong Tingsong, her gaze slowly turning cold, and her eyes gradually filled with mockery. "Isn't it a little late for you to ask now?"
Zhong Tingsong opened his mouth, but didn't know what he wanted to say.
Zhong Wanwan continued, "Su Ying is very good to me and Xu Yan, especially to me. She takes good care of me and shows me a lot of love. When I was short of money, she gave me money. When I wanted to buy jewelry, she used her own money to buy it for me... She is really good to me."
After hearing this, Zhong Tingsong's expression softened. "That's good. It seems she still has some affection for you."
Hearing this, Zhong Wanwan couldn't help but sneer, "She killed my mother, she has a guilty conscience, of course she'll be nice to me and Xuyan."
Zhong Tingsong looked up: "Wanwan, do you know what you're saying?"
Zhong Wanwan sneered, "Dad, stop pretending! Don't you know how Mom died?"
Zhong Tingsong looked at her in shock, "Didn't your mother die of illness?"
Zhong Wanwan said coldly, "I already knew what happened. You cheated on me with Su Ying and even brought Su Ying to my mother's house and to my mother's face under the guise of being the younger sister of a distant relative."
"Su Ying heard that my mother liked pastries, so she specially went to learn Western-style pastry making and made different kinds of pastries every day to please my mother. When my mother was happy, you and Su Ying were happy too. How did my mother die? My mother was slowly poisoned by something Su Ying put in her pastries, and she was killed by her!"
“I was young then and didn’t dare tell anyone, including my uncle. I was afraid they would call me a liar, a madwoman, or that they were slandering Su Ying. But I knew that my mother was killed by Su Ying!”
Zhong Tingsong stared at Zhong Wanwan, "Wanwan, you can't talk nonsense about this..."
Zhong Wanwan suddenly raised her voice, "I'm not making this up, I saw it with my own eyes! I even secretly hid two pieces of pastry, and they're still under my bed! I once told you why Mom's health never got worse after eating Aunt Su's pastries? You said it was because Mom's resistance was low during that period!"
“Mom used to be so healthy, but after Su Ying came to our family, her health deteriorated day by day, month by month! Do you know how much I hated you when she passed away? After Mom died, I felt that you and Su Ying were allies, and that you two conspired to kill her!”
"You and Su Ying are in cahoots, pretending to be siblings, but you've actually been sleeping together for ages! You think I don't know anything? Well, I know everything!"
“My mother sensed something before she died. She no longer trusted you and Su Ying, which is why she entrusted our child to my uncle! With a woman in our family who killed my mother, if my uncle didn't take care of us, Xu Yan and I wouldn't survive a single day. A stepmother will inevitably lead to a stepfather. Do you think Su Ying is good to us because he likes us or loves us? No way! Su Ying is good to us because she's afraid of my uncle!”
"If I suddenly told you that Su Ying is a vicious woman, would you believe me? You would only think that I am slandering your good wife! Su Ying deserves to go to jail. She is a murderer, she is an executioner. If she doesn't go to jail, who will?"
Zhong Wanwan choked up as she said, "So many years have passed, but in my heart, Su Ying will definitely get her comeuppance!"
Zhong Tingsong sat there, her whole body ice-cold, feeling as if her blood was about to freeze.
Everything seemed so fake that he couldn't believe it.
He even thought he was hallucinating, and that the words Zhong Wanwan spoke sounded like a falsetto in his ears.
At this moment, Zhong Tingsong's heart was filled with fear and regret.
He did have an affair with Su Ying back then, but he still loved his wife in his heart.
He admitted that he was attracted by novelty, by Su Ying's beauty, and by her youthful body... but he still truly loved his wife.
He and his wife were childhood sweethearts, and after so many years of ups and downs, he never imagined...
Zhong Tingsong closed his eyes, still deeply affected by the devastating blow.
Zhong Wanwan suddenly said, "I already know my sentence: four and a half years."
Her face flushed red as she said regretfully, "If I had known it would turn out like this, I shouldn't have disobeyed my uncle back then, and I shouldn't have tried to destroy Wen Shu just to vent my emotions."
“I know Wen Shu is innocent, I know she has nothing to do with this, but why should I target her if she isn’t Su Ying’s daughter?”
