Song Zhizhi returned to the villa.

Ultimately, she suffered from insomnia that night. She was preoccupied with many things that required resolution.

The next day she drove to the police station to check in as required. After the simple procedure, she requested to see Xiaoqing. The officer gave her a rundown, and Song Zhizhi saw Xiaoqing, her face filled with terror.

Xiaoqing dared not look into her eyes, her demeanor was evasive.

Song Zhizhi remained very calm. She said, “Xiaoqing, you’ve been with our Song Family for so many years, have we ever mistreated you?”

“Miss, please don’t ask me anything. I won’t give a false confession. Please don’t pressure me, please don’t pressure me….” Xiaoqing cried so much that she was sobbing uncontrollably, it was as if Song Zhizhi was coercing her with her status.

Song Zhizhi lightly bit her lip.

Xiaoqing didn’t look at Song Zhizhi at all, she buried her head in her arms and looked really distraught.

The staff at the police station noticed Xiaoqing’s unstable condition and forcibly took her away. Song Zhizhi failed to identify any weaknesses in Xiaoqing, but one thing she was sure about was that Xiaoqing must have been severely threatened.

Song Zhizhi left the police station and returned to the villa.

As soon as she reached the entrance, she saw Song Zhidao standing there, apparently waiting for her.

Song Zhizhi got out of the car, “Is there something?”

“Dad just called and asked me to accompany you back to the main house, he said something came up. ” Song Zhidao relayed the message.

Song Zhizhi frowned, it didn’t seem like good news to be summoned back at this time.

But even so, she got back into the car and drove Song Zhidao to the Song Family’s main residence.

The living room of the main residence.

Grandma Qin Ciling arrived, her face was severe, she looked at Song Zhizhi who just walked in.

Song Shan sat next to Qin Ciling, he looked very serious, so serious that Song Zhizhi felt threatened.

Nie Wenzhi, Nie Xiaofei and Yi Wenhan sat on the other side of the sofa.

The room was very tense, the atmosphere was stifling.

But Song Zhizhi was very calm, she walked over casually and called Song Shan, “Dad, Zhidao said you called me back, is there anything?”

“Zhizhi, I asked your dad to call you back.” Nie Wenzhi broke the silence.

“Oh, what’s the matter?” Song Zhizhi still remained calm.

Nie Wenzhi looked at Song Zhizhi and felt a bit nervous.

How Song Zhizhi had changed, facing this kind of situation she remained composed, this made her rather anxious.

However, Nie Wenzhi was ultimately a very cunning woman. She acted very calm and seemed very friendly. She said, “Zhizhi, after all these incidents, I’ve been thinking a lot. It all comes down to it, it’s not your fault, it’s my fault. It’s my fault for not taking good care of you all these years.”

As the words fell, tears streamed down her face.

Anyone would be moved by her self-blaming demeanor.

Song Zhizhi, in fact, had guessed that Nie Wenzhi would put on a tragic play.

“It’s not your fault, Mom, how could it be your fault. It’s my fault.” Nie Xiaofei echoed, “It’s all my fault. If I’d known that elder sister still had feelings for Wenhan, I wouldn’t have been with Wenhan. It’S because elder sister kept saying that she liked Ji Baijian that I dared to like Wenhan. I didn’t Imow….”

Having said this, Nie Xiaofei also burst into tears.

The two were playing off each other.

The whole living room was filled with their desolate cries.

“How is it your fault?! If Song Zhizhi hadn’t been so fickle and faithless, she and I wouldn’t have ended up like this. We finally stabilized our relationship and now she’s causing a scene. ” Yi Wenhan harshly glared at Song Zhizhi while comforting Nie Xiaofei.

“Enough!” Song Shan commanded authoritatively, silencing the entire hall, “There’s no need to dwell on who’s at fault.”

No one dared to say another word.

Only Grandma Qin Ciling had the right to speak, “Song Zhizhi, you made me a promise when I left, what are you trying to provoke now? Is our Song Family really raising a daughter like you? I feel so humiliated!”

Song Zhizhi bit her lip.

So Nie Wenzhi called her back today just to humiliate her?

“Mom, don’t be angry. This matter is not entirely Zhizhi’s fault…” Nie Wenzhi hastily said.

“Indeed!” expressed Qin Ciling with high indignation, “How did the family drama become public news? Internal family issues cannot be aired in public. How exactly are you managing our family affairs? How can I entrust the Song Family to you!”

“It’s my fault, I wasn’t careful, I really didn’t think this matter had anything to do with Zhizhi, I just wanted to punish the servant. If I don’t take decisive action to set an example, I’m afraid the other servants will keep crossing the line!” Nie Wenzhi quickly explained.

Qin Ciling seemed to have grown tired of this, she waved her off and said, “Tell me now, how are you going to solve this? I don’t care about the cause, all I demand now is how to save face for our Song Family!”

“Calling Zhizhi here was to properly solve this.” Nie Wenzhi wiped away her tears, “The situation has alarmed the Procuratorate and it’s impossible for us to treat this merely as an accident now, as the Procuratorate has already started gathering evidence. Also, with news flying around, there’s definitely no way to withdraw the case.”

“Get to the point!” Qin Ciling’s voice was loud.

“In order to minimize the impact on our Song family, as well as Zhizhi and Xiaofei, the only solution I can think of is a swift conclusion. The faster this thing ends, the less the impact.” Nie Wenzhi said, “But we need Zhizhi’s cooperation for this.”

Before Song Zhizhi could speak, Qin Ciling snapped, “How is she supposed to cooperate?!”

“Zhizhi should plead guilty. ” Nie Wenzhi said, “As long as Zhizhi pleads guilty, the Procuratorate does not need to spend so much time gathering evidence and trying the case. In this way, of course, the matter will pass very quickly. Moreover, I have talked with Xiaofei. In court, Xiaofei will plead for mercy from the judge. As far as I know, if the victim forgives the perpetrator, Zhizhi’s sentence will be lenient. Under less serious circumstances, a sentence of half a year to a year should suffice.”

Song Zhizhi looked at Nie Wenzhi, who was pretending to be a good person, and sneered inwardly. Indeed, Nie Wenzhi’s calculations were quite good..
