Chapter 137: Calculation, Truth, and Family



Chapter 137 Calculation, Truth, Family

Song Ci's fair and flawless face was nestled in the soft fur, making her look even more adorable.

Thinking about how she had been tortured by her parents these days, and comparing it to Song Ci's current state, Bai Xiuxiu was furious and cursed: "You bitch, why did you cause my brother to go to jail, and you are still fine? It's really unfair to God! If God is blind, he should take you, a bitch."

Before Song Ci could say anything, Song Lan behind her looked cold and kicked her in the back of the knee.

Bai Xiu Xiu, who couldn't control her body, threw herself forward and fell to her knees with a "thump".

She was not wearing thick clothes, and her knees touched the cold, hard ground, causing her whole body to tremble in pain.

"You, you hit me!" Seeing that it was Song Lan who attacked her, she gritted her teeth in hatred.

"You'd better watch your mouth. If I hear you say anything dirty again, it won't be as simple as kicking you."

"You've never done this to me before."

Bai Xiu Xiu was both scared and anxious. The reason she dared to come to Song Lan was because she was sure that the other party would not do anything to her. Maybe if she lowered her posture and coaxed him softly, Song Lan would let her brother go.

Her life will be restored.

Who would have thought that Song Lan would be so heartless.

Song Lan was too lazy to care about Bai Xiu Xiu's madness. Now the Bai family, and even Bai Xiu Xiu, were nothing but lunatics in his eyes.

He only hated himself for being blind. How could he fall for such a woman and even try to marry her as his wife? If that happened, it would be a real disaster for their third branch.

"I'm very concerned about what she said just now. I was afraid she would run away, so I brought her back."

After he finished speaking, he told Bai Xiu Xiu everything he had just heard from her.

After listening to this, Song Ci realized that it was exactly as she had guessed. The meeting between Bai Xiu Xiu and Song Lan was not a coincidence, but a carefully designed one.

"Who ordered you to do that?"

"No, no one ordered me to do that." Bai Xiu Xiu denied it with gritted teeth.

"No? Bai Xiu Xiu, you should be very worried about your brother right now."

Bai Xiuxiu's eyes flickered, "I don't know what you are talking about."

"I'll give you two options. One is to tell me everything you know. Otherwise, whether Bai Dayong can be released in this lifetime depends on your performance. The second option..." Song Ci's smile became even gentler. "I will arrange for the government to take good care of Bai Dayong in prison. It all depends on whether he can survive until the day he is released."

After understanding what she meant, Bai Xiuxiu trembled with anger, "You, you are threatening me! You are threatening me with my brother's life."

Song Ci raised an eyebrow but didn't deny it. Wanxiang brought a chair over from behind her, and she sat down leisurely.

Bai Xiuxiu looked at Song Lan, "Your sister is threatening me like this, don't you care? She has such a vicious heart! She wanted to kill my brother. My brother didn't succeed, why can't you let him go?"

Listening to her shameless rebuttal, Song Lan almost laughed out of anger.

Didn't succeed? His sister Song Ci was smart, strategic, resourceful, and well-prepared. The Bai family deserved to be jailed for such shameless intentions.

Scum like Bai Dayong should stay in jail and not come out to harm other girls.

"Don't you think you are shameless?"

“You, you!”

Bai Xiuxiu thought Song Lan would feel sorry for her, but unexpectedly, he held it in for a long time and actually called her shameless. Frustrated and aggrieved, she suddenly began to miss Song Lan, who used to be gentle and obedient to her.

No matter what difficulties she had or how much money she wanted, as long as she asked, Song Lan would do her best to help her.

She suddenly felt very anxious and couldn't breathe. She felt as if she had lost something very precious.

"Okay, Bai Xiuxiu, you make your choice. If you insist on not telling us, you can leave the Song family first. We will definitely not make things difficult for you." She changed the subject, "But I can't guarantee what will happen to your brother after you leave."

Since Bai Xiu Xiu entered the door, she has been observing the other person's expression and movements.

Whenever she mentioned Bai Dayong's inability to get out, or anything related to Bai Dayong, she started to tremble with fear subconsciously. Combined with Bai Xiuxiu's current state of distress, it was likely that Bai Dayong had been in jail for the past few days, and the Bai family's two elders hadn't let Bai Xiuxiu off easily.

After she said this, she fell silent. This silent atmosphere made Bai Xiu Xiu feel like she was almost suffocating.

Song Dynasty porcelain gave her the feeling of being delicate and beautiful, always smiling and seeming very kind.

But the other party was also smiling at this moment. He didn't speak harshly. His voice was gentle and soft, neither hurried nor slow, but the feeling was completely opposite. A strong sense of oppression made Bai Xiuxiu very uneasy. "I, I'll tell you. If I tell you, will you let my brother out?"

"Bai Xiu Xiu, you are not worth negotiating with me. Do you have any other way to go now besides this one?" Song Ci's tone was light, but it revealed an indescribable indifference and alienation.

Bai Xiu Xiu didn't care at all about her nails digging into her flesh. Her mind was racing.

Thinking that her parents asked her to get out and beg Song Lan, if she couldn't send Bai Dayong back safely, they would send her to a widower's house in the countryside. The widower was already old, and her life would be ruined if he went away.

She made up her mind. After saying all this, in exchange for Bai Dayong, she would go find Brother Jing, marry him, and be together with him. The person who had found her before and plotted against Song Lan might not be able to find her as long as she walked far enough.

"The person who was looking for me was wearing an indigo robe. His skin was slightly dark." She racked her brains to describe the man's appearance. Song Ci and Song Lan fell silent.

Isn't there someone around them who meets these characteristics?

"Xiao Ci, why does she sound like she's talking about Second Uncle?" Song Lan lowered his voice, his tone filled with surprise and fear.

Song Ci nodded, "That's right."

Facing Song Lan's incredulous gaze, she hardened her heart and said, "In fact, after so many years, you should have realized that the Song family's first and second branches may not really regard us as one family."

One sentence set off a storm in his heart.

He might not really be unaware of the attitudes of the first and second wives and his grandmother towards the third wife.

But we are blood relatives, and even if the bones are broken, we are still connected by the roots. We are all blood relatives, so why do you have to destroy yourself to this extent?

Song Lan couldn't understand it. No matter how smart he was, he was still a teenager after all, and it was inevitable that he couldn't react for a while.

Seeing his expression, Song Ci knew she had to give him a chance to digest it.

If I hadn’t experienced those things in my previous life, I might not be able to understand that sometimes a family in name only may not be a true “family”.
