Chapter 172
When Shi Li and Fu Huixing returned to the car, they noticed a missed call on their phone.
It was from Song Ying.
Because Fu Huixing was beside her, Shi Li didn't call back immediately, waiting until the driver had dropped Fu Huixing off.
Only then did Shi Li return the call, "Is there something urgent?"
Song Ying's soft voice came through the receiver, "Sister, are you free tomorrow?"
"Yes, I am. Do you need something?"
Song Ying giggled, "I want to visit Mrs. Hong Yan in prison. I haven't seen her for many days and I miss her. I'm afraid to go alone, so I was hoping you could accompany me."
Shi Li fell silent. She had always known that this girl had many tricks up her sleeve, a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Has she now stopped hiding her true nature?
Song Ying pleaded, "Please, can we go?"
"Alright, when do you plan to visit? I'll clear my schedule in advance."
Song Ying had already planned it out, "Let's go in the afternoon. Sister can sleep in in the morning."
"Okay, have the driver pick me up tomorrow."
The next day, after lunch, the Xu family's driver arrived punctually with Song Ying to pick up Shi Li.
Song Ying entered the villa, politely greeted Huang Jie, and presented her with a gift.
Huang Jie inquired about her adjustment to the Xu family and her relationship with her birth parents.
Song Ying answered each question.
Huang Jie only asked a few simple questions before tactfully letting the two go about their business.
He answered, "Not often, but compared to other inmates, 5938 has more visitors. There's another person visiting her today."
"Okay, okay, thank you."
Shi Li wanted to give him some food, but feared it might be seen as a bribe. To avoid causing trouble for either of them, she suppressed this urge.
"Someone else is visiting her? It must be Uncle Shi."
Shi's Grandmother had more than once urged her son to divorce Hong Yan, even having a lawyer draft a divorce agreement, but Youngest Uncle Shi had promised to stay together through thick and thin and refused to divorce no matter what.
Because of Youngest Uncle Shi, the Shi family was mocked by those around them every so often.
A few years ago, it was Youngest Uncle Shi divorcing and leaving for love. Now it was because the object of Youngest Uncle Shi's love turned out to be a criminal. She had stolen a child, and that child happened to be the Xu family's daughter.
It was quite a dramatic storyline, enough to shock everyone several times over.
Of course, the best way to cover up one explosive gossip is to reveal another explosive gossip.
After hearing about the Lin family's matriarch having sex in the mourning hall, the identity of the man involved was even more shocking.
In the face of such major news, the child-stealing incident instantly became insignificant.
After hearing the gossip about the Lin family, from Shi Li's Uncle and Eldest Aunt down to Shi Li's Cousin, they all expressed their utmost gratitude for the self-sacrificing dedication of the Lin family's eldest madam and second son, who had saved their family.
If possible, they would like to send these two individuals a banner of honor.
It would read: "Glorious Adultery, Great Beauty of Humanity."
To visit Hong Yan, Youngest Uncle Shi would definitely be there, but Shi Li felt there might be others as well.
"Mrs. Hong has offended quite a few people in the past. There should be plenty of people wanting to see her current state."
Song Ying always agreed with whatever Shi Li said. She nodded cooperatively, "Sister, you're right."
Shi Li was holding a parasol when she came face to face with a lady under a floral parasol not far away.
That person asked in disbelief, "Ali?"
