The calm and elegant Ms. Du's face finally showed a hint of panic.
She avoided Chen He's gaze, took a sip of the cold black tea to disguise her feelings, and said with forced calmness, "I heard it from someone too."
"There's no such thing as a completely impenetrable wall. The outside world has at least heard about what happened to Mr. Song."
"Miss Shen is making a fuss out of nothing."
Old fox!
Chen He then asked Du Yuling: "May I ask Ms. Du, who did you hear these words from?"
"Tell me the name of that person. I must ask him why he spread rumors and slandered my family. After all..."
Chen He smiled inscrutablely, as cunning as a little fox. She said, "As a wife, I didn't even know my husband was bewitched."
There is no such person at all, Du Yuling is just making it up.
Chen He was obviously serious and wanted to get to the bottom of this matter. How could Du Yuling dare to mention a specific name?
She herself has something to hide.
Seeing that Du Yuling was going to deal with it with silence, Shen He deliberately said, "Did you hear it from your eldest son?"
Du Yuling's pupils trembled in shock.
Look, she hit the key person again.
Seeing Du Yuling was scared, Shen He smiled deliberately again, tilted his head and said: "That might be what Cheng Song said. He went to Song Garden to attend my mother-in-law's funeral before, and maybe he heard the nonsense of the Song Garden employees."
Du Yuling's heart relaxed a little, "Maybe."
Du Yuling rubbed her temples, pretending to be distressed, and sighed softly, "As we get older, our memory becomes less effective. Maybe I misheard something, or maybe I remembered it wrongly."
"Aunt Du may be really old." Chen He smiled and said, "Before my old lady passed away, she was still telling me that she had a good relationship with you when she was young."
"I don't know what's going on. I haven't seen Aunt Du come to visit her in all these years. I'm worried that Aunt Du still can't let go of the grudges from their youth and isn't willing to forgive her."
Chen He was completely lying with his eyes open.
Chu Zhi had never mentioned Du Yuling in front of them.
But Chen He understood Chu Zhi's personality. She and Du Yuling must have known each other when they were young. As for whether their relationship was close or distant, it didn't matter.
The important thing is that as the mistress of the Cheng family, Du Yuling should find the right opportunity to go to Song Garden and chat with Chu Zhi.
But Du Yuling never went there once.
Chu Zhi is a spoiled and self-centered person.
Chen He reasonably speculated that the two of them knew each other when they were young, and Du Yuling had also suffered injustice and loss at the hands of Chu Zhi, so they never had any contact with each other until they died.
After saying that, Shen He focused on observing Du Yuling's reaction.
As expected, when Du Yuling heard the name Chu Zhi, hatred and murderous intent flashed across her eyes!
That was a strong murderous intent.
"A celebration from our youth?" Du Yuling asked Chen He mockingly, "Your mother-in-law calls the things she did to me a 'festival' from our youth?"
There is indeed a story.
"Auntie Du." Chen He looked a little surprised. She asked tentatively, "Could it be that when my mother-in-law was young, she did something very mean to you?"
"You also know my mother-in-law's temper. She has a strong desire for control and a domineering personality. She is the one who has the final say in the entire Song Garden."
"Even when my father-in-law was alive, she was completely obedient to him. Many things that we consider to be morally corrupt are just trivial matters in her eyes."
"Aunt Du, what did my mother-in-law do to you back then?"
"You do understand your mother-in-law." Du Yuling sneered sharply, "If time had gone back twenty years, she would have easily crushed you to death if you were a daughter-in-law who displeased her."
At this point, Du Yuling smiled meaningfully and said, "I remember that more than ten years ago, she killed a girl who was close to Mr. Song."
Shen He slowly withdrew his smile.
She stared at Du Yuling with scrutiny and answered irrelevantly: "My mother-in-law has indeed done many evil things, but her methods are clean. We know that she has done these things. It seems that Aunt Du has been sending people to monitor the movements of the mistress of Song Garden all these years..."
Du Yuling was stunned again.
She had been very careful not to fall into the language trap set by Chen He, but she still fell for it.
The key is that Shen He can always find the loopholes in her language at the first time.
The new hostess of Song Yuan is indeed not to be underestimated.
"Miss Shen, let's be frank. You didn't come here to visit my husband sincerely." Du Yuling sneered, "How can you visit a patient and then ask me about his past in a roundabout way?"
"Tell me the truth." Chen He simply confronted Du Yuling. She said, "If they were just here to visit the patient, then it wouldn't be my turn to come. I could have asked Kang Bo to bring a gift to save face."
"If Aunt Du is willing to tell me about the grudges between you and my mother-in-law when we were young, I'd be all ears. But since you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. After all, my mother-in-law is gone, so there's no point in asking about it."
"However," Chen He smiled playfully. "No matter how Aunt Du argues, you are the number one suspect on my list of those who plotted to murder Jing Cheng."
Therefore, Shen He didn't plan to ask the rest.
From the moment Du Yuling blurted out that Song Jingcheng was poisoned by a Gu, Chen He could confirm that she was the one who put the Gu in his body.
Du Yuling's expression changed again and again.
She rarely saw a girl as difficult and domineering as Chen He. Although they both had a domineering style, Chen He's tactics were more impressive than Chu Zhi's.
