Meng Ruyi sneered. Watching this family regard the Meng family's property as their own, she felt both amused and annoyed. She raised her voice to Meng Chengliang and said, "Ha! Do you think it should be given to you? This is the family business my parents built up. What does it have to do with you?"
"I'm the only one in the Meng family..."
Meng Ruyi couldn't help rolling her eyes. "Just because you're incompetent and fond of gambling? Idiot!"
Meng Sili's face grew darker and darker. His eyes staring at Meng Ruyi began to redden, and he gasped like a crazy bull.
Looking at their ferocious faces, Meng Ruyi only found it funny.
She saw the widow her uncle was going to marry in a few days had already left in a hurry, covering her face. Before leaving, she even spat on the ground.
[Hurry up and die! So annoying! So annoying! Stop being so hesitant!]
[Alas, it's so pitiful. I feel so bad for YuYu. If it weren't for Song Huaizhi, she'd probably be dead by now.]
[I'm so thrilled! This disgusting family is finally going to be out of the picture. They're so nauseating!]
[Song Huaizhi: Isn't anyone going to care about what I've done?]
"Meng Ruyi, is what Mrs. Meng said true?"
"Yes."
After Meng Ruyi said that, she saw the uncle and his son inexplicably break free from their restraints and pounce on the aunt.
"Damn woman! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Meng Chengcai pounced on her. Meng Sili said nothing, but his face was full of anger as he followed his father and pounced on her.
Meng Ruyi stared with wide eyes at what was happening in front of her. But the next second, Meng Sili stumbled and suddenly fell on top of the aunt. Before the woman could even let out a scream, she tilted her head and stopped moving.
"Help! Murderer!"
"A son killed his mother! Oh, Lord of Heaven!"
The on - lookers were in an uproar. The county magistrate immediately ordered his men to detain the father and son. His face turned as black as thunder as he slammed the gavel hard.
Bang——
Only then did the people on the scene stop shouting. They all looked at the ground with different expressions.
Meng Sili was completely dazed from the moment he fell. He was as motionless as a stone, allowing himself to be detained.
It's over! It's over! He had killed that woman!
Meng Ruyi's face was also extremely ugly. She stared fixedly at the bullet comments.
[What's going on! What a crazy twist! Why did those two yamen runners suddenly loosen their grips just now!]
[I suspect Song Huaizhi killed her to silence her. After all, the aunt knew too much. Song Huaizhi couldn't possibly let her live.]
[Great! They're biting each other! I don't care who did it! It's just so satisfying!]
[No way, Song Huaizhi didn't even move!]
Did Song Huaizhi do it!?
Meng Ruyi subconsciously looked at the young man beside her. She saw him calmly take out a piece of candy from his brocade pouch and put it into his mouth.
Realizing that Meng Ruyi was looking at him, Song Huaizhi was in a good mood at the moment. He leaned over and whispered in Meng Ruyi's ear, "Does Miss Meng have anything to ask?"
Something was off! Meng Ruyi had spent some time with Song Huaizhi recently and knew that he had a bad temper. Although he looked like a gentle and frail young man on the surface, in fact, he had a deep - seated mind! Hearing his cheerful tone, Meng Ruyi knew this matter was related to him.
How did he know that Meng Sili and his father would attack the aunt, and why did Meng Sili happen to fall on top of her? What a deep - seated mind! He could see a hundred steps ahead with one move!
Meng Ruyi's hair stood on end instantly. She swallowed hard and, driven by her survival instinct, asked, "Little Song... Is Little Song Gege tired?"
Song Huaizhi glanced at her, chuckled, and then said cheerfully, "A little."
"Let's go back quickly after this is over."
Meng Ruyi saw her father and mother standing in front of the crowd at some point. She waved at them, indicating that she was okay.
"The criminal woman, Mrs. Meng, murdered her young niece for money and deserves to die. However, since she was killed by her son, no further punishment will be pursued."
"The son of the criminal woman, Mrs. Meng, not only conspired with his mother to murder his cousin but also openly killed his mother in public. He is unforgivable and will be beheaded immediately!"
"The criminal, Meng Chengcai, assisted Mrs. Meng in murdering the young niece and will be beheaded immediately!"
"Now, we will spare no effort to arrest the doctor who provided the poison to Meng Chengcai! If anyone knows where he is, you can come to the yamen and tell the yamen runners!"
Hearing the fate of this family, Meng Ruyi suddenly felt that the invisible shackles that had appeared on her since she saw the bullet comments were suddenly unlocked.
Meng Ruyi couldn't imagine what would have happened if she had drunk that bowl of medicine.
If her returning parents had seen her cold body, how desperate they would have been.
Meng Ruyi could no longer hold back her tears. She threw herself into Song Huaizhi's arms and cried loudly, "Thank... Thank you, Little Song Gege... Waaaa..."
After she said that, Song Huaizhi pulled away Meng Ruyi's hands that were tightly clutching him. He leaned over and asked, "Miss Meng, your tears are getting on my clothes."
Tears hung on Meng Ruyi's long eyelashes. She subconsciously glared at him fiercely.
[Hahaha! What a straight - laced guy! Hahaha! I laughed so hard that the voice - activated lights within a ten - mile radius lit up!]
[He says he dislikes it, but in fact, he even took out his handkerchief to wipe YuYu's tears! What a charming tsundere brother!]
[I was so angry just now, but now I'm almost dying of laughter. I bet YuYu will remember this "your tears are getting on my clothes" for the rest of her life.]
Meng Ruyi had been sad, but after Song Huaizhi said that, she felt a bit mixed - up. The gloom in her heart had mostly dissipated.
Meng's father and mother standing beside them couldn't help laughing. They exchanged a knowing look.
This Song Huaizhi was really good to YuYu. Maybe it was really a good idea to keep him.
So Meng's father asked, "Little Song, would you like to go with me to inspect the shops?"
Previously, saying that he would let Song Huaizhi take over the accounting was just an excuse on the spur of the moment. But now, Meng Chengliang really had this idea. YuYu would take over the family business sooner or later and needed someone she could trust. Song Huaizhi in front of him was a good candidate.
Meng Ruyi: ???? What's going on? They were just confronting each other in court, and now they're going to inspect the shops?
Song Huaizhi is so busy!
Before Meng Ruyi could gloat, Xu Fanglian glanced at her indifferently and said, "YuYu, you go with them too. Learn more from your father and Little Song."
Meng Ruyi's expression instantly froze on her face. She never expected that she would be pushed into this situation now. Oh my god! She had occasionally learned some things about the shops from Xu Fanglian and the others, but what she learned was little and miscellaneous. She was just a half - baked beginner.
The little girl with strong self - esteem felt that she had lost enough face today. She quickly glanced at the stain on Song Huaizhi's chest. She wanted to refuse, but when she turned her head, she saw her mother staring at her with a half - smile.
"...... Okay."
As Meng Ruyi expected, Song Huaizhi looked at the ledger in the shop and pointed at it, saying to Meng Chengliang, "Uncle, there's a problem here."
Song Huaizhi didn't intend to hide his talent at all, which made Meng Ruyi feel that it was just as she had thought.
"Little Song." Meng's father quickly checked the accounts. After calculating with the accountant for a long time, he looked up at Song Huaizhi with a complicated expression and asked, "Are you convenient to tell me about your background?"
This kid was no ordinary person.
