Songqijia went astray because it couldn't bear to give up high profits!
Xiao Bai grew angrier as he listened, which proved that Yingzi was right: Da Lian was killed by the Song family to protect their reputation!
"But you're a beast too! For some worldly possessions, you've even disregarded the wronged soul of your own daughter!"
"No! These are two different things. I'm willing to give up everything I own to let my daughter rest in peace, but... alas!"
Song Qijia flicked his sleeves, seemingly harboring some unspeakable secret.
The woman with bloodshot eyes stepped forward shakily, indicating that she was the one who wanted to prevent Song Qi from reporting the matter to the authorities and wanted to cover it up.
"Huh? Auntie, you don't seem like the kind of heartless person like Song Qijia?"
You can tell from a person's face whether they are grieving the loss of a loved one.
"Yes, but I'm not reporting it to the authorities for Da Lian's own good."
Ear?
What does this mean? Is there something else going on?
The unexpected twists and turns of the story caught the group somewhat off guard.
"My Da Lian did commit suicide, but she wasn't forced to by the Song family!"
After saying these words, the woman's inner wounds seemed to be reopened, and she couldn't help but lean on the woman next to her and burst into tears.
Did Da Lian commit suicide?
But was he forced to his death?
Moreover, it has nothing to do with the Song family.
Bai Yi was sweating profusely with anxiety. She was both angry and worried about Da Lian's death, but she couldn't keep up with her mental state, so she could only pace anxiously in the living room.
The woman's expression changed again, this time with a resolute look.
"Please, please stop asking questions and go. It's true, Da Lian was immoral and disgraced the family. We're the ones who drove her to her death. You, you should all leave!"
this.
Steel Egg was dumbfounded. What's wrong with him?
Seeing the other party's behavior, Jiang Xiao had a slight understanding, so he tapped the table and said softly.
"So, what exactly is the relationship between that Young Master Qi and Da Lian?"
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze.
It seems the problem lies with Young Master Qi.
Seeing that the woman was still trying to argue, Jiang Xiao continued.
"It's clear that Da Lian is your precious daughter. If she develops feelings for a commoner, it's not impossible that you would break them up for the sake of your daughter's future or out of concern that she might be deceived."
"But your Song family, with its vast wealth and power, addresses the other party as 'Young Master Qi,' which indicates that the other party's status is certainly no less than that of your Song family, or even higher. Am I right?"
"Then what reason do you have to break them up?"
Everyone was speechless for a moment.
The woman opened and closed her mouth for a long time before finally speaking tentatively.
"Do you think it's possible that his name is Young Master Qi?"
Jiang Xiao shook his head. He thought that such words might fool someone as stupid as Xiaobai, so he continued.
"Even if the other party is penniless, you can still bring him over as a son-in-law, or give him start-up capital to see if he has the talent for business and whether he is worthy of your daughter. Your Song family started in business and you are all smart people. You won't be stingy with such a small trial and error cost."
No matter what, Da Lian shouldn't have been forced to jump into the river by the Song family's own people, so the reason must lie with Young Master Qi!
Every word was forceful and clear, especially when combined with Jiang Xiao's imposing aura, leaving the Song family with no excuse to refute.
"Just tell me the truth, I'm so worried!"
Bai Yi, who loves listening to stories, was so anxious that she jumped up and down. At the same time, she was amazed at how smart her father was, feeling that he was at least 30% smarter than her!
Song Qijia's face turned pale and then flushed, before he finally spoke.
"Actually, Da Lian was forced."
It turned out to be the case.
Therefore, this Young Master Qi is the real beast.
What Matsuki said next finally made everyone understand the whole story.
The Qi family is an extremely powerful family, with a mysterious figure in charge, and they have connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds.
The Matsuri family was no match for them, nor could they resist.
"Actually, I've considered going down with the tide. I'm willing to give up this huge family business and fight that beast to the death. But, Ke Lan'er cares about Da Lian's reputation."
I have pent-up frustrations that I need to vent.
Chapter 416 Blood Book
Although Song Qijia was in tears after saying it, he felt extremely relieved.
"I hate it! I hate myself for being such a useless businessman! I really have no other options."
"If I report this to the authorities, not only will Da Lian's reputation be ruined, but our Song family will also be destroyed. Moreover, the government may not be able to do anything to a powerful clan like the Qi family!"
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry to Dalian. I'm such a useless father."
The members of the Song family's collateral branches also had slightly red eyes, and a young man even stood up to speak for the Song family.
"The patriarch... all the patriarch can do is spread rumors in private that Da Lian was forced to her death by him for separating her from her lover, in order to divert attention and preserve Da Lian's innocence."
In this way, everyone will only despise him for not being a decent person.
But no one would associate this with the fact that Da Lian was raped.
Isn’t this bullying an honest person? !
'boom! '
Bai Yi smashed a chair to pieces!
"Where is the Qi family? I'm going to wipe them all out!"
She initially thought that Young Master Qi and Da Lian were a pair of star-crossed lovers, but she never expected that Young Master Qi was the worst person ever!
Bai Yi felt utterly disgusted by her own thoughts!
With the woman's help, Song Qijia stood up unsteadily.
"No, I don't need you anymore. I've already made up my mind. I'll report it to the authorities! The fault doesn't lie with Da Lian. I shouldn't have been threatened by the Qi family with Da Lian's reputation. As for our Song family's business, well, it's been shady to begin with. It's a relief that our property was confiscated."
This statement immediately garnered a lot of support.
They say a person lives for their pride, and the Qi family's actions are not much different from defecating on the Song family's head.
"That's right, Sister Da Lian was forced, and now it's something we should be ashamed of? The Qi family should be the ones ashamed!"
"That's right, let's fight them to the death! At worst, we'll confiscate all our wealth! Let's start over from scratch."
They had been holding their breath for far too long, and the Song family had long been unable to bear it any longer; their anger was palpable!
Jiang Xiao fell silent for a moment. The Qi family seemed to be quite powerful. Song Qijia's reckless act of reporting to the authorities might not be successful.
After all, there was no evidence, and even the most important witness had been dead for so long.
Furthermore, the Song family has consistently shown signs of having something to hide, and they might even be turned around and falsely accused by the Qi family.
“It’s alright. I have a letter written in blood by Da Lian before she committed suicide, which can serve as evidence! However, I’ve been under surveillance by Ni He, who was sent by the Qi family, so I haven’t dared to take it out.”
Oh, that's alright. Chang An said he had also heard that the government could use certain methods to uncover the truth behind the blood oath.
"My lords, you should leave quickly. Ni He, sent by the Qi family, is just one of their experts. There may be even more powerful people among them."
Song Qijia didn't want Jiang Xiao and the others to get involved in trouble. He had already taken everything lightly and wanted to personally confront the Qi family in court!
Jiang Xiao nodded, agreeing with Song Qijia's statement.
"Alright, here's what we'll do. I just saw an inn in Liuzhen. Let's stay there for now. You can come find us anytime if you need anything."
Even after leaving the Song family, Bai Yi still looked sullen, muttering that she wanted to go and avenge Da Lian.
That young master Qi is absolutely despicable!
Not only did he rape her, but he also shamelessly used the incident to threaten the victim's family. She was outraged!
Jiang Xiao, who was walking ahead, stopped, sighed, and lectured Xiao Bai.
"The mortals are the government's responsibility, the supernatural are ours. This is a legitimate crime committed by mortals. Besides, it's really inappropriate for a supernatural being like you to go and wreak havoc. And have you forgotten, there are only three of us, while the Qi family might have many experts. Are you sure you want to go?"
"Aren't you scared? Give up your chickens?"
Gangdan grew bolder and directly confronted Jiang Xiao.
He also felt that this young master Qi deserved to die, because according to the law, he would most likely only be sentenced to imprisonment, not death.
If the Qi family were to intervene again, the punishment might be lighter.
Jiang Xiao remained silent, but that's how the law is. As a weakling with little power, he could only honestly and law-abidingly be a law-abiding youth.
