"But there's always been a voice inside my head telling me it's not true, you know? Ever since I was a child, I never liked my Second Uncle. I disliked him from the very first glance. Yet every family member insisted that because Second Uncle suffered in the countryside when he was young, we should treat him well," Su Wen said.
Song Jinyan paused, then let out a cold laugh. "Indeed, the things he did afterward—everything I could see—his daughter is exactly like him." His tone was full of unrestrained disgust.

If Old Master Xu stepped in, he must have known the truth.
"You don't understand how cold-blooded some people can be," he said, his voice thick with sarcasm.
Songshan shivered, thinking that the secrets he learned today were enough to get him killed several times over.
