444 Framing Someone (2)
As a servant, it was actually very disrespectful to size up her master. Even though Shen Yijia was married, she was still the Second Miss when she returned to the Shen family.
However, the previous host’s status in the residence was worse than that of a servant, so this servant was naturally not afraid of her. Fortunately, Shen Yijia did not care about such a small matter.
“The Shen family? They’re looking for me?” She narrowed her eyes. No wonder they looked familiar. She had seen them in the original host’s memories.
She was unhappy with everything in the Shen residence. Shen Yijia’s expression darkened. She raised her chin and looked down at the servant. “If you have something to say, say it quickly. After that, get lost.”
She had no time to care about the Shen family now. If she wanted to hit someone, she had to wait for Shen Pingxiu to recover from his injuries.
Otherwise, not only would she not be satisfied, but she would also have to worry about losing control of her strength and killing him by accident.
The servant paused. He did not expect that not only had Second Miss’s appearance changed, but even her personality had changed.
Thinking of Eldest Young Master’s instructions, the servant immediately put on a terrified expression and knelt down. “Second Miss, Master was harmed by someone. He wants to see you now. Please go back and take a look at him.”
Shen Yijia sneered. “If he’s sick, find a doctor to treat him. If he’s going to die, go to the coffin shop and book a coffin. Why are you looking for me? Do you want me to gather money for him?”
What did her beautiful husband say? There must be something wrong with this abnormality. Shen Pingxiu probably wanted to see her and kill her.
She wasn’t that stupid to fall for it!
The servant thought, “That sounds quite reasonable.”
His expression changed a few times. He gritted his teeth and kowtowed to the ground. He said sadly, “Second Miss, it’s fine if you haven’t returned to the capital even once.”
“But Master is lying on the hospital bed and can’t get out of bed. He still thinks about you. Even if it’s on account of your kindness, Second Miss should go back…”
Hearing the commotion, the servants stuck their heads out curiously and were speechless.
This was because they couldn’t figure out the emperor’s attitude towards Song Jingchen.
The officials living on Liu’er Street did not dare to interact with the Song family. Although they were neighbors, they rarely even met. Even if they did, they would not greet them.
Now, her father wanted her to return to the Shen residence!
Shen Yijia dug her ears impatiently. “Are you done? If you’re done, get lost.”
The servant choked. “But…”
The door slammed shut in response.
“Sister Jia, who is it?” Madam Li asked worriedly when she saw Shen Yijia return angrily.
Shen Yijia waved her hand. “No one. He’s just a beggar.”
Madam Li looked at her strangely. Now, they even dared to knock on the door and ask for food?
Shen Yijia did not say anything else.
It was not that she did not dare to visit the Shen family, but it was really strange that Shen Pingxiu suddenly sent someone to visit.
She wasn’t afraid that they would come out in the open, but she was afraid that they would dig a trap and wait for her to jump into it. She wanted to ask Song Jingchen after he came home from work.
Shen Yijia was thinking about it carefully, but South Wind returned with a message. Someone reported that a large number of female corpses had been discovered in a town outside the city.
The case was transferred to the Court of Judicial Review. Song Jingchen had to go out of the city to investigate the case, so he might not be able to make it back tonight.
Shen Yijia could only help Song Jingchen pack two sets of clothes and get South Wind to bring them over for him. After thinking about it, she was afraid that she would distract Song Jingchen, so she didn’t mention that someone from the Shen family had come.
On the other side, the servant left with a swollen forehead and went straight to the Yuelai Restaurant on Chang’an Avenue.
He knocked on a private room on the third floor and a follower walked out.
The servant nodded and bowed. “Brother Ming, I’ve done what Eldest Young Master instructed.”
The man called Brother Ming glanced at him and took out a money bag. “Eldest Young Master gave it to you. Go to a medical center and apply some medicine.”
“Ah, thank you, Brother Ming. Thank you, Eldest Young Master.” The servant happily accepted it and left.
In the private room, Shen Wenbo sat below a man in white. After hearing his follower’s words, he waved his hand to dismiss him.
“Second Young Master.”
“I understand. You can go back first. He won’t rush back,” the man in white said gently.
Shen Wenbo stood up and cupped his hands at the man in white. “Thank you, Second Young Master.”
“She’s just a woman. Why go through so much trouble?” Ji Yunxi walked out from behind the screen.
The man in white personally poured a cup of tea and placed it opposite him. He smiled faintly and said, “Didn’t you say that someone changed Song Jingchen’s fate?”
“After thinking about it, there was only one additional person by his side after the incident at the Bulwark Duke’s residence. If there’s anyone who’s most likely to change his fate, it can only be her.”
