Chapter 80 - 80: The Fate of Nie Xiaofei (1)
In the hospital corridor.
Song Shan let out a sigh, “Zhizhi, dad was wrong to blame you.”
Song Zhizhi smiled, “It’s nothing, dad. Nobody could anticipate something like this happening.
Besides, Xiaofei usually behaves well at home, who would have thought she could do such a thing?”
Song Shan nodded, “Indeed, it was unexpected. When I got the call from the court saying that it was Xiaofei’s setup, I thought I had misheard. But then I was really relieved, my daughter, my own daughter wouldn’t do such a thing! No one should dare to say anything bad about my daughter from now on!”
“Yes,” Song Zhizhi nodded, “I was raised by you from a young age. Since my dad is so awesome, how could I be any less?”
‘You child, still so flattering.” Song Shan said with satisfaction.
Song Zhizhi replied, “Dad, I used to be naive and caused you a lot of trouble.”
“Who else can you be but my daughter.” Song Shan looked at her with affection, “But given all that has happened recently, I feel you’ve really grown up. I should listen to you more in the future.”
Song Zhizhi chuckled again, leaning sweetly into Song Shan’s arms.
At that moment, the harsh-tongued Ji Baijian somehow came into her head, thinking about how he had flipped out when she had given Yi Wenhan a few extra glances. If he could see her snuggling into her dad’s arms, he would be through the roof.
And it turns out, she actually decided to leave her dad’s arms all because of Ji Baijian’s jealousy.
Just at that moment.
A series of hurried footsteps echoed through the corridor.
Song Zhizhi and Song Shan quickly turned around.
Not too far away, Song Zhidao also looked back in surprise.
They saw a nurse nervously shout, “Chief Song, your wife just tried to slit her wrists in the ward…”
Song Shan rushed towards the ward.
Song Zhizhi was stunned for a second.
Nie Wenzhi would resort to anything in order to stay in the Song Family.
Having been humiliated so much, and then resorting to such an extreme method, what grand scheme was Nie Wenzhi hiding?
“Sister, why are you standing there?” Song Zhidao reminded her.
Song Zhizhi came back to her senses, stepped into action, and headed towards the ward with Song Zhidao.
Just as they arrived, Nie Wenzhi was wheeled out by the medical staff, heading for the emergency room.
Song Shan followed.
Joined by Song Zhizhi and Song Zhidao, they waited outside the operation room.
Song Shan was a bit anxious, pacing back and forth.
About half an hour’s rescue efforts passed.
The surgeon was the first to come out.
Song Shan hurriedly went forward, “How was it?”
“Madam is now out of danger. But due to excessive blood loss, her body is especially weak and needs a good convalescence. The important thing is, madam attempted suicide due to mental issues. Chief Song needs to shower her with extraordinary care. As the saying goes, only the heart can cure heart diseases.”
“Yes, yes, thank you, doctor.”
The doctor nodded and left first.
Nie Wenzhi was then pushed out of the operating room.
Song Shan rushed over.
Feeble and fragile, Nie Wenzhi with her tear-stained face feebly whispered to Song Shan, “Husband, I’m sorry, I really didn’t know Xiaofei could do this, I…”
“Alright, don’t say anything.” Song Shan spoke tenderly, “The most important thing is to recover.”
Nie Wenzhi nodded.
She tightly clung onto Song Shan’s hand, projecting an image of complete devotion.
If Nie Wenzhi was good, really good… Song Zhizhi would genuinely thank her, for bringing a new warmth to her father’s life after the loss of his wife. But!
Song Zhizhi’s eyes hardened.
She swore she wouldn’t let history repeat itself!
One day, she would expose Nie Wenzhi’s true colors, ensuring that she meets her just desserts!
After Nie Wenzhi returned to her ward, she stayed closely attached to Song Shan.
Song Shan was also very caring, never leaving her side.
Seeing that Nie Wenzhi had stabilized, Song Zhizhi politely exchanged a few words and left the hospital with Song Zhidao.
With Song Zhidao driving and Song Zhizhi sitting in the front seat, Luo Xiaolang was left in the back.
In the car.
Song Zhizhi initiated a conversation, “Do you think aunt knew about what Xiaofei was doing?”
Song Zhidao pondered for a moment, then replied, “I did think for a second that she might have known, considering that Xiaofei is her own daughter and they’ve been living under the same roof for so long. But then I thought she probably didn’t. After all, we never suspected either. Besides, aunt has mainly focused on us, neglecting Xiaofei’s growth. It’s possible.”
Song Zhizhi nodded, refraining from making any judgment about Song Zhidao’s opinion, instead offering a reminder, “Do not do unto others as you would not wish done unto you. But always be on guard against others’ malice. We all believed that Nie Xiaofei was incapable of such behavior until we discovered her true colors.”
“Mm-hmm.” Song Zhidao nodded, “I understand your point.”
Song Zhizhi knew that her brother was not foolish.
She didn’t say much more, just gazed at the crossroad up ahead and made a decision, “Zhidao, take me to the detention center.” ‘What for?”
“TO See Nie Xiaofei.”
“Mm-hmm.” Song Zhidao didn’t ask anything else.
The car soon arrived at the city-suburb detention center.
After going through the standard procedures, Song Zhizhi walked in, asking Song Zhidao and Luo
Xiaolang to wait for her outside. There were some things she needed to discuss with Nie Xiaofei alone.
Inside the detention center, Nie Xiaofei was surprised that the first person to visit her was Song Zhizhi.
She had always thought it would be her mother.
At that moment, she became somewhat agitated, and snapped, “Why did you come here, to scoff at me, to insult me?!”
“No.” Song Zhizhi replied, “I simply came to see you.”
Nie Xiaofei eyed her warily.
“Did you think that I only found out about your true colors now?” asked Song Zhizhi, nonchalantly.
“What are you talking about?” Nie Xiaofei glared back.
“Did you think that if I didn’t know your true colors, I could so easily investigate you in the right direction, find evidence, and clear my name?” Song Zhizhi scoffed.
Nie Xiaofei felt a tightness in her chest.
She and even her mother had never expected that Song Zhizhi could see through their plot.
Even if they knew that she had been wronged, they never believed it would lead back to them!
In fear, Nie Xiaofei looked at Song Zhizhi, realizing in that very moment, that all of this seemed like a pit dug by Song Zhizhi, for her to jump into!
They thought they were plotting against Song Zhizhi, but little did they know that they had long been deemed her pawns..
