Chapter 1513: Chapter 1279: A Beautiful Existence (3)
It is said that after Liang Yue’e died, her body was taken by her two brothers for cremation, and then they took the ashes away.
They didn’t even allow Song Zhongming to pay his respects.
There was a lot of speculation outside, guessing whether Liang Yue’e’s death was related to Song Zhongming.
Song Zhongming listened to these remarks anxiously and fearfully, trying every possible way to make connections and apologize profusely, but he couldn’t get Liang Yue’e’s two brothers to compromise.
Song Zhongming could do nothing else but go seek help from his daughter Song Qingyang.
His two brothers-in-law refused to show him any respect, surely they wouldn’t refuse their own niece?
But to his surprise, he was outright rejected by Song Qingyang.
Song Zhongming was furious, but he could only hold back his temper, saying: "Qingyang, I’m your father, how could you not help your biological father?"
Song Qingyang sneered, "That’s right, you’re my biological father, but did you forget that the person who died is my biological mother? My uncles don’t let you pay respects to mom because they think her death is related to you... So Father, let me tell you the truth too, in my heart, mom’s death is also tied to you..."
Song Zhongming was taken aback, pointing at Song Qingyang: "You... what nonsense are you talking about? How could your mother’s death be related to me? How could it possibly concern me?"
Song Qingyang said, "Dad, didn’t you have a quarrel with mom that morning? You even accidentally broke a vase, not to mention the necklace around mom’s neck was pulled off by you, right?"
Song Zhongming stared at Song Qingyang with wide eyes, trembling, said: "Yes... yes, I indeed quarreled with her that morning, but I... I didn’t kill her, she was my wife, how could I possibly kill her?"
Song Qingyang just smiled faintly, saying, "You could even use your children in transactions, what else could you not do?"
After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Song Zhongming seething with anger behind, unsure of what to say.
Later, Song Zhongming went to find Yu Dou.
He thought his daughter wouldn’t listen to him now, but she might listen to her husband, right?
Yu Dou hesitated slightly but nodded in agreement.
Yu Dou went to the Liang family the afternoon before the funeral, where Song Qingyang was temporarily residing.
He invited Song Qingyang to the courtyard, chatting with her while walking.
Almost without question, Song Qingyang outright rejected Yu Dou’s suggestion.
She also instructed Yu Dou not to interfere in this matter any further, as she would not agree.
After saying that, she was about to leave, but Yu Dou said softly to her back: "Not agreeing is indeed simple, your two uncles vent their anger, and you vent yours, although this anger is actually inexhaustible. But have you thought about yourself? Don’t forget, that man is your father, if he is censured, how would others see you? For instance, if they suspect that your father killed your mother, they’ll say: ’Did you hear about how the parents of Miss Song from Nanshan Residence are?’ Do you enjoy being spoken of like that?"
Song Qingyang frowned, looked at Yu Dou, and after a moment, said: "I want to ask you a question, please answer me honestly!"
Yu Dou shrugged, indicating he was willing to be at her disposal!
Song Qingyang said: "Do you think my mother’s death... is related to my father?"
Yu Dou frowned, and after a moment, said: "I think it might have some relation, but your father probably didn’t want your mother to die. You also see your two uncles’ current attitude towards your father. Both are holding important positions in T City’s political sphere; your father probably doesn’t want to be their enemy, and the only connection between them is your mother! So in this situation, how do you think your father would treat your mother?"
Song Qingyang lowered her eyes, thinking Yu Dou’s words made sense.
Father and mother certainly often quarreled, but in such circumstances, he really wouldn’t dare to make things too ugly.
She asked: "Then do you think my mother’s death was truly an accident?"
Yu Dou shook his head: "I dare not be sure about that. Of course, if you have doubts, you can let the police investigate; the incident happened at Nanshan Residence, it shouldn’t be hard to investigate..."
Song Qingyang hung her head, saying: "Forget it, my mother just passed away, I have no mood to do anything now. Whether it turns out to be my father’s doing or an accident, I won’t feel any better..."
Yu Dou smiled slightly: "Looks like you’re not planning to find out the truth!"
Song Qingyang laughed: "Truth? What is the truth, who knows? For these many years, I’ve always wanted to know the answers to some things, but I just don’t know, and sometimes not knowing might be better!"
