Song Ting changed out of his white coat and got into the car. He fired up his tablet and skimmed through the information.
Too many things had occurred during this period. Song Fan’s actions had caught him off guard. She was nothing like the fiery-tempered little sister he remembered from their youth.
Upon recalling Song Fan’s childhood, he couldn’t help but think that her temperament was somewhat unreasonable. Even those with short fuses have their calm moments. After all, human energy is finite. Constantly being in a state of rage takes a toll on one’s body.
Yet, Song Fan’s temper had been consistently challenging. A small spark could set her off. Consequently, she was frequently ill back then, prompting their mother to shower her with extra attention.
This, in turn, fueled Song Kai’s resentment toward Song Fan, believing she had stolen their mother’s affection. The family was in turmoil because of this.
During that period, he was engrossed in his studies and deeply frustrated by the inability to find peace at home.
However, he could never have anticipated the tragic turn of events. Song Fan had poisoned Song Kai, and their mother had perished in a car accident.
When Song Kai regained consciousness, he refused to see Song Fan. Meanwhile, Song Fan threw a tantrum, desperately wanting to see their mother again. She adamantly denied poisonings her brother. no matter the accusations.
Their father had been engulfed in grief over their mother’s loss, and their family was in disarray. Unsure of what to do, Meng Yu suggested that Song Fan should leave the household for a while and return once things settled down. In the end, he reluctantly agreed to this suggestion.
When he saw Song Fan off, he scolded her harshly, threatening never to bring her back again, hoping to scare her into mending her bad temper.
At that time, he had harbored some resentment toward Song Fan, believing that her troublesome behavior had led to their family’s downfall. Their mother would still be alive, Song Kai wouldn’t have been poisoned, and their family would have remained harmonious.
However, with time, he had a change of heart. He continued sending her money and various supplies to the countryside, hoping to improve her life. After all, Song Fan was still his sister.
As more and more events unfolded at home, he had to assist with the family business while attending school. It had been a grueling experience, juggling work, studies, and exams as a medical student. The daily grind left him with little time for rest.
He was so preoccupied that he couldn’t make the time to fetch Song Fan.
The reports he received from the caretakers indicated that Song Fan remained unrepentant. She was left in the countryside, as she had food and clothing there.
Yet now, as he perused the information, he sensed something amiss. As a renowned detective, Song Huai could unearth clues that eluded ordinary individuals. Furthermore, Song Fan’s life in the countryside wasn’t much of a secret.
All Song Huai had to do was send someone to inquire. Most of the straightforward villagers didn’t conceal anything, especially when they learned that the Song Family was seeking information. They openly discussed Song Fan’s arduous years.
He read about Song Fan falling seriously ill shortly after arriving in the countryside. It had been a challenge to locate her and transport her to the hospital. At one point, she had stopped breathing, prompting the hospital to issue a critical condition notice. Fortunately, Song Fan’s tenacity had seen her through.
Song Huai had never received this critical news. The village’s guardian had only reported Song Fan’s troublemaking tendencies.
Song Ting’s expression darkened as he ruminated on the deception he had endured for so long. He couldn’t believe someone had been so audacious. It seemed evident that someone had orchestrated this. Several scenarios raced through his mind.
After suppressing his anger, Song Ting continued to delve into the information. As he read on, he learned about Song Fan and Wang Rou living together. The villagers had grown fond of this seemingly aloof but warm-hearted young girl.
Despite Song Fan’s unwillingness to smile, the villagers found her resourceful
and willing to assist with their problems. She was known as a kind-hearted
girl.
The information contained the villagers’ recollections of a Song Fan that Song
Ting had never known—almost as if a severe illness had subdued her impulsiveness, rendering her emotions calm and steady.
These memories were recounted in just a few pages. Song Ting didn’t feel the villagers were long-winded, but he continued reading with great interest.
Until he reached the page detailing Song Fan’s disappearance. It left him utterly flabbergasted.
In haste, he picked up the phone and urgently dialed Song Huai. “Song Huai, what happened when Song Fan disappeared?”
Song Huai let out a sigh. “This matter has taken an unexpected turn. No one in our family is aware of it. This news was exceptionally well concealed. I suspect there might be a mole in our family.”
Song Ting lowered his head and said, “It appears that we need to do a cleaning. After all, Song Fan is the eldest daughter of the Song Family, and she shouldn’t have had to endure all this..”
