Xu Wen’s voice regained some strength, and her tone softened considerably.
“The incident at the banquet has nothing to do with you. It was all done by Meng Xia, who did these things because she didn’t like Song Fan. Now, she’s become a target of public criticism. She’s after Song Fan’s life. What does that have to do with you?”
Zhao Li was confused and couldn’t comprehend Xu Wen’s words.
Seeing her bewildered, Xu Wen remained calm and said in a sincere tone, “You were just manipulated by Meng Xia. She wanted to deal with Song Fan, and it was her mistake that led to the current situation. It has nothing to do with you. And she even poisoned the second son of the Brown Group. Without the support of Mrs. Song or Mr. Song, how could a mere adopted daughter dare to do such a thing?
She continued, “I heard that the Song family has been searching for Meng Xia, but she’s gone. If she’s not the mastermind, why would she run away? Can’t the Song family find her on their turf? Do you think it’s possible? If, in a few days, Meng Xia kidnaps Song Fan out of jealousy, she might even ask for a ransom from the Gu family and the Song family. If her plan is exposed, it’s normal for her to run away with the money.”
Every word from Xu Wen made Zhao Li increasingly uneasy. However, with Xu Wen’s continuous coaxing, Zhao Li began to understand that as long as she was not involved in the matter, Gu Chen would naturally let go of the Zhao family.
Seeing the changing expressions on Zhao Li’s face, Xu Wen knew that she had convinced her. “Look, you’ve been pursuing Gu Chen for a long time. When has he ever said anything serious to you? If he disliked you, why would he indulge you for so long? Everyone in the capital knows that you like him.”
Zhao Li finally showed a pleased expression. Yes, with Gu Chen’s character, if he didn’t want to be bothered by her, he would have warned her long ago.
However, after listening to Xu Wen’s words, Zhao Li seemed to feel that Gu Chen had been subtly implying something to her all along. She nodded vigorously. “You’re right, Gu Chen doesn’t dislike me. He has always allowed me to pursue him…”
“When I went to A City, he clearly said that I’m not his fiancée, and we have nothing to do with each other. He never said such things to you, did he?” Xu Wen continued to guide her, “Do you still not understand why?”
“Do you mean he…” Zhao Li’s face no longer showed panic but rather replaced it with excitement.
Xu Wen coldly snorted in her heart but continued to speak earnestly, “He cares about you. Otherwise, what else could it be?”
Zhao Li was so excited that she didn’t know what to say. She tightly held Xu Wen’s hand, breathing heavily.
But suddenly, Xu Wen said, “Unfortunately, there’s Song Fan now, sandwiched between you two. If she weren’t there, it would be perfect, right?”
Hearing this, Zhao Li suddenly became a bit sober. Indeed, wasn’t Gu Chen targeting the Zhao family because of Song Fan? She withdrew her hand from Xu Wen’s grip and lowered her head, lost in thought.
Suddenly, Zhao Li raised her head, a look of excitement on her face. “What you said is right. The incident in A City was all Meng Xia’s doing, and it has nothing to do with me. Moreover, she might be capable of kidnapping Song Fan, right?”
Her eyes shimmered with an unusual light, as if eager to get Xu Wen’s confirmation. Xu Wen did not disappoint her, nodding firmly. “Meng Xia wanted to marry into a wealthy family, so she drugged Song Fan. She wants to be the only daughter of the Song family, so she kidnaps Song Fan. And…”
Xu Wen paused for a moment, gently brushing away Zhao Li’s scattered bangs, then said tenderly, “She killed to cover up her plan. Everything was done by Meng Xia, and Gu Chen will understand that it has nothing to do with you.” In the hospital room, Zhao Li became somewhat manic. She rambled intermittently about her plans, unaware that Xu Wen had already opened her phone and started recording a video.
Until she left, Xu Wen saved the video. A sinister smile appeared on her lips.
She knew that Meng Yu wouldn’t give up any pawn that could be used. The moment she was sent to the Song family’s dungeon, Meng Xia was brought in by Meng Yu. She was indeed a ruthless mother! Since Meng Xia wanted to replace her, Xu Wen would turn this pawn into a useless one.
“Meng Xia? Song Fan? Hmph, neither of you can escape.” A sinister smile gradually spread across Xu Wen’s face, and her voice carried a cold, icy tone.. “And Meng Yu, you will go to hell as well!”
