Xie Mingzhu gave a cold laugh.
"Sitting in the well for too long makes you think that the well opening is the whole sky."
Do you still think things are the same as they were decades ago, where you can just say whatever you want and it's all the same?
"Let us tell you something else. Xie Wanying has been arrested and imprisoned. We just received the news before we came that she confessed everything in order to get a reduced sentence."
He Caixia became visibly nervous.
"What...what did she say?"
Huang Meiling curled her lips into a smile.
"So nervous? Are you nervous that she'll expose that you knew about the identity swap all along, or are you nervous that she'll reveal that you went to the capital to find her, told her your true identities, and secretly plotted to gain something from it?"
He Caixia's eyes widened: "That brat even said all this?!"
Huang Meiling narrowed her eyes, decided to play along, and nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Xie Wanying described this very clearly. She even told you the time, place, and the content of your conversation at the time without missing a single word."
"You two are the masterminds behind this."
"The evidence is conclusive now, so it's no use denying it even if you insist on it."
"Under the law, no one can escape punishment for doing bad things."
"You two, just wait to go to jail!"
Song Yongfu and He Caixia were completely dumbfounded.
They never expected Xie Wanying to be so ruthless.
They kindly told Xie Wanying the truth, letting her know that she wasn't a daughter of the Xie family, yet she had enjoyed so much good fortune from them for so many years.
If it were them, they would at least be secretly happy and thank the person who told them the news.
And this heartless person actually exposed them!
The reason they told Xie Wanying the truth was simply so that she would remember their kindness and give them more benefits.
Now look what's happened! He hasn't gained any benefits, and he's gotten himself into trouble, causing a lot of trouble for himself.
This is a classic case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead!
"Ungrateful wretch! Xie Wanying is an ungrateful wretch!!"
He Caixia gritted her teeth, both angry and anxious.
They couldn't accept this mudslinging for nothing. Since Xie Wanying had been unkind to them, they shouldn't blame them for being unkind to her in return!
Since the situation couldn't get any worse, the two of them decided to just give up and go all out.
"We knew all along, but Xie Wanying isn't as innocent as she claims!"
"She didn't find out the truth when we went to the capital to find him; she already knew it when she was ten years old! We only found out about this after we talked to him during our last trip to the capital."
"For so many years, she has deliberately used her status as the daughter of the Xie family to enjoy your care and your family's resources."
"He did this knowingly and deliberately! We're not good people, and neither is she!"
Song Yongfu and He Caixia gritted their teeth in exasperation.
“You must not let her go. She is the real culprit who caused your daughter to suffer in the countryside. At most, we are just cooperating with her and helping her keep this secret from being told to outsiders.”
This Xie Wanying betrayed them so ruthlessly, and now she wants to use that betrayal to get a reduced sentence? No way!
At worst, we'll all perish together, and nobody will benefit!
