Upon hearing the result, Tang Yutong was shocked. She had thought that He Muyun was just being greedy, but she never expected such an outcome. She gritted her teeth and looked at He Muyun with murderous intent in her eyes. "He Muyun, are you telling the truth? Or are you just trying to shift the blame onto someone else..."
Before she could finish her sentence, He Muyun quickly agreed, "Believe me, everything I said is true. Even if you kill me, I wouldn't dare to lie in this situation."
Agreeing with him, Tang Yutong pursed her lips and brought He Muyun back to the Tang family. At that moment, Tang Lixue was enjoying her life as a young lady in the Tang family.
Seeing her, Tang Yutong's face twisted in mockery. "Oh, isn't this my dear sister? Why are you back at this time? Didn't you say you wouldn't come to see me again?"
Frowning, Tang Yutong pulled the person who had been hiding behind her out and said, "If it weren't for my dad, I wouldn't have anything to do with you. Tang Lixue, I know everything that happened. You don't have to hide it anymore."
With just one sentence, Tang Lixue's face turned pale, but she quickly regained her composure, believing that her mother would never betray her. "I don't understand what you're talking about. Tang Yutong, my mother is your stepmother, and she's still your mother in name. How can you bully her?"
She was about to pull He Muyun, but Tang Yutong blocked her way. Looking up, she was filled with anger. "What are you doing? This is the Tang family, and this is my mother. How dare you question her? You have some nerve."
With a cold laugh, Tang Yutong sat casually on the sofa. "Tang Lixue, you know this is the Tang family, right? Then let me remind you that as long as I am still Tang Yutong, I am the legitimate young lady of the Tang family. You have no right to point fingers at me."
Pausing for a moment, Tang Yutong continued, "And do you really think that you can get away with letting our father be killed? Now, your mother has told me everything. You can wait to go to jail."
Hearing her words, Tang Lixue collapsed on the ground, saying, "How? How is that possible? It can't be true. My mother wouldn't betray me."
He Muyun looked at her in silence, not daring to say anything.
Seeing that she couldn't save herself, Tang Lixue knew that she could only save herself now. She turned her head and looked at Tang Yutong, suddenly threw herself at her legs, and begged for mercy while crying: "Sister, I know I was wrong, I didn't mean it. Please don't send me to jail, okay?"
With a cold snort, Tang Yutong felt relieved at her current state. "Okay, don't pretend like this. You caused harm to Dad this time, and I will never forgive you. I don't know how you could bring yourself to do it to your own father."
"I... Sister, I know I was wrong. Don't be angry. I apologize to you. I will change in the future and won't do this again. It was just a moment of foolishness due to my youth. Please don't send me to jail, sister."
"Hmph, youth and foolishness, that's all you have to say for killing your own father. What do you want to do in the future? I will never forgive you this time. You can give up, and I will make sure that you and your mother get the punishment you deserve."
As she spoke, she pulled her leg back, and Tang Lixue finally fell to the ground. By now, her makeup was all smudged, and she looked particularly disheveled, even nauseating.
The servants around them began to point and talk about her. "We thought Second Miss was really good, a well-behaved girl. Who would have thought that she would do such a thing in private?"
"Yeah, I used to think they were good people, that they had good character. Now I know that they were just pretending to be good in front of us."
Their anger only grew as they learned the truth about Tang Lixue and He Muyun, and they would not let them go.
Finally, in the midst of the servants' angry words, Tang Lixue stood up angrily. She no longer pretended to be weak and vulnerable, but pointed at Tang Yutong and said: "Tang Yutong, you bitch! Don't talk to me about these moral principles. You're just better at pretending than I am. Who are you trying to fool?"
Frowning, Tang Yutong's face darkened. "Tang Lixue, wake up. Now that things have come to this, you are destined to go to jail. It's all your own fault, and you have no right to say these things to me. I will make sure that you and your mother pay for what you've done to Dad."
At this moment, Tang Lixue was about to retort, but caught sight of a figure out of the corner of her eye. She smirked and, before anyone could react, suddenly fell to the ground.
Then she said to the person coming towards her, "Mo Shao, don't blame my sister. It's all my fault for making her angry. It's not her fault that she pushed me."
Tang Yutong pulled the corner of her mouth and looked at her with some disdain. At this moment, she was still thinking about using Mo Jin to escape punishment, which was simply seeking death.
Mo Jin had heard what He Muyun said with his own ears, so how could he be deceived by her words?
Sure enough, after listening to her words, Mo Jin turned his head and looked at her with disgust: "Miss Tang, please behave yourself. Of course, I believe Yutong. However, your false accusation against her is a bit too much. So, you'd better apologize to her. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
Seeing that Mo Jin did not hesitate to take Yutong's side, Tang Yutong felt delighted, but she did not show it.
However, Tang Lixue's resentment grew deeper and deeper. She was jealous of Mo Jin's care and concern for Tang Yutong, and looked at him with contempt. "Apologize to her? Why should I? Tang Yutong is just a slut. I became like this today because of her. I will never apologize to a hypocritical slut like her."
Tang Yutong was annoyed by her constant use of the word "slut", and warned her with a cold face, "Tang Lixue, if you keep calling me a slut, I will send you to the ICU. Do you believe me?"
Mo Jin was already extremely unhappy, and now he was so cold that it seemed that if Tang Lixue said one more word, her fate would be very miserable.
