657 You Killed Dad
Xie Chuan nodded. “We found a medical record in the study at the crime scene. Old Master was actually sick, and he called his lawyer the night before yesterday to make a will. He asked him to attend Young Master Lu’s engagement party so that after it, they could discuss the contents of the will. So, I think the murderer might be fighting for property.”
Di Cheng said, “If that’s the case, you can eliminate me first. Father values men over women. As the only son in the family, I wouldn’t have anything to gain by killing my father.”
“The same goes for me, the master’s wife,” Ji Yue said.
Song Ci smiled. “That might not necessarily be true.”
“Miss Ci, please continue,” Xie Chuan said after a few points.
Song Ci replied, “Young master Lu and I searched Madam Ji’s room and found a diary and recording… So, Madam Ji, is Third Young Master my father’s biological son?”
Ji Yue replied indifferently, “Of course. While I did have a boyfriend before, that’s all in the past.”
“That can’t be right,” Lu Gan said. “When I was searching for evidence in Second Miss Xu Qin’s room alone, I saw her diary when she was young. It said, ‘today, there was a change of drivers. Uncle Wang, who usually drives for father, was missing. I heard the maids discussing that Uncle Wang wanted to bully stepmother, and father saw him. Uncle Wang said that stepmother seduced him, while stepmother said that uncle Wang bullied her. Father is very angry now.’ Since then, there has been no uncle Wang in the family.”
“So I’m the son of Old Wang next door?” Di Cheng was shocked.
Ji Yue said helplessly, “Driver Wang did force himself on me, but he didn’t succeed. You are the Old Master’s son. It’s the driver who was slandering me. ”
Second Young Miss added, “I did hear about this when I was young. I recall the maid also saying that Uncle Wang was a good person and had always been polite to girls because he had a sister. Why would he suddenly bully you?”
Ji Yue smiled. “It’s because we were indeed a couple before. However, after we got together, Old Master took a fancy to me. So he held a grudge and took advantage of Old Master’s absence to do that to me.”
Second Young Miss Xu Qin did not know what to say and could only look at Lu Gan.
Lu Gan did not have any more evidence. He turned to look at Song Ci. “My dear, please continue.”
Song Ci picked up a piece of paper. “I found this in the Young Master’s room. The note said, ‘What should I do? There’s no time left. What should I do?! I can’t accept this!’”
Di Cheng looked at Song Ci as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
“Tell me, Young Master,” Song Ci said with a smile.
Young Master Di indeed had a secret. He looked directly at Song Ci across the table and finally could not help but say, “”Didn’t you notice? I like you, Sister!”
Song Ci was confused.
Lu Gan, on the other hand, was shocked. As were the netizens watching.
Song Ci was in disbelief. “You like me? We may not have the same father and mother, but I’m your cousin.”
“When I was young, Second Young Miss Xu Qin always bullied me. I went to look for my mother, but as she wasn’t the Second Young Miss’s mother, she couldn’t help me. Only you asked Second Young Miss to apologize to me and comfort me. So, I’ve liked you since then. When I grew up, I felt that I couldn’t leave you. However, now you’re getting engaged! You’re not worthy!” Di Cheng looked at Lu Gan and said disdainfully, “A thirty-year-old man. He’s not worthy of you at all!”
Lu Gan flexed his joints.
Song Ci said weakly, “Well… I’m twenty-eight years old, and he’s thirty. Isn’t that a good match?”
Lu Gan hugged Song Ci. “Did you hear that? Your sister said we’re a perfect match! A match made in heaven. A golden boy and jade girl, deeply in love. What demon are you? To have the nerve to separate us!”
Di Cheng straightened his neck and shouted, “In my heart, my sister will always be eighteen-year-old. She’s a good match for the nineteen-year-old me. Unlike you, old man!”
Lu Gan flexed his hand joints again and turned to look at Ji Yue. “I’ll turn myself in first. If you see that Young Master is missing tomorrow morning, it’ll be my doing.”
“We are a society governed by law.” Ji Yue did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Lu Qian said coldly, “You covet my wife. No matter how far away you are, you must be killed!”
Di Cheng also turned his head to look at Ji Yue. “Then I’ll turn myself in too. If Young Master Lu goes missing tomorrow, it’ll be me who did it!”
Song Ci was amused by this sudden change in their relationship.
Di Cheng continued his statement. “That was why I was anxious and kept asking myself what to do.”
“So, you killed Father to stop our engagement?” Lu Gan asked.
