Chapter 467: 467 Scapegoat
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Old Master Song only felt his vision darken. Even he did not dare to do something like murder. Once someone related to the Song family was involved in illegal activities, he would definitely drag the entire Song family down.
Although Old Master Song was also very angry about this matter, for the future of the Song family, he had to help Song Lin resolve this matter.
“You have to tell me the details of what happened.” Old Master Song was calmer than Song Lin. After all, he had been in the business world for decades. He had enough experience to deal with this.
Song Lin told her everything about the day Tan Jing asked him out, the argument he had with Tan Jing, and the incident where he accidentally killed Tan Jing.
After he finished speaking, Old Master Song said, “Go back to school first. Don’t expose anything. Leave this matter to me.”
“There are my footprints there,” Song Lin said worriedly. “Also, there’s a high possibility that my fingerprints will be left on Tan Jing’s body. I’m afraid that the police will trace it back to me.”
“You just have to go back to school and study hard! If you reveal any flaws, I’ll have no choice but to hand you over to the police. I won’t help you whether you’re sentenced to life imprisonment or death. Go back to where you came from!”
If it was possible, Old Master Song did not want Song Lin to go to jail. If it was in the past, he would just hand Song Lin over and make his identity as an illegitimate child unclear. After all, he had so many grandchildren, so he did not need Song Lin.
However, someone had been targeting the Song family recently, causing their business to drop by 40%. At this juncture, the Song family could not afford to have any more negative news. Therefore, he had to protect Song Lin.
After receiving Old Master Song’s promise, Song Lin calmed down a lot. “Thank you, Grandpa. As long as this matter can pass, 1 will definitely be obedient.”
Old Master Song glared at him. “Don’t think that you’re my only grandson. Even if your brothers are good-for-nothing, they’re much better than you! If you continue to be like this, if you continue to be like this, then get lost!”
Song Lin panicked when he heard Old Master Song asking him to get lost. He could tolerate anything else, but he could not accept being chased out of the Song family.
“Grandpa, I will perform well.” Song Lin promised.
On the way back to school, Song Lin kept brainwashing himself. He told himself that Tan Jing was a bad woman. Not only did she seduce him, but she also wanted to seduce other men. In the end, she died pregnant with someone else’s bastard child. It must be because the heavens were watching that this slut of Tan Jing’s was taken away.
Thinking of this, Song Lin’s expression changed. He smiled, then tidied up his school uniform and returned to class confidently.
When Tan Rou saw Song Lin’s expression, she knew that the matter that troubled Song Lin had been resolved.
Old Master Song moved very quickly. Song Lin had just confessed to him in the morning, and he had already found a scapegoat in the afternoon.
As Tan Rou walked on the road, she heard the students beside her discussing the police announcement at noon.
“What is it? Tan Jing was actually killed by a hooligan?” A boy didn’t quite believe it. “Is it that hasty?”
A girl said, “1 heard that the hooligan doesn’t have a job. He usually sleeps in the unfinished building and steals things for a living. After Tan Jing escaped from the Tan family, she also moved into the unfinished building. The hooligans saw her and wanted to force Tan Jing. Tan Jing was unwilling. As the two of them pulled, she fell down from upstairs.”
Tan Rou smiled coldly. What hooligan? He was probably taking the blame for Song Lin.
“How do you know so much?” The other girl asked me, “I saw the police report, there wasn’t so much information.”
The girl said, “i heard it from someone else.”
Tan Rou came to class and deliberately glanced at Song Lin. Song Lin came early today and was not as flustered as he was in the morning. Song Lin had returned to his previous state in the afternoon.
She really could not understand what Old Master Song saw in Song Lin. Could such a stupid person really be the heir of the Song family? Then, she thought of Old Master Song, who had spent 50 million to buy the ‘Spiritual River Landscape Painting’. As expected, the apple doesn’t fall far from its tree. Old Master Song himself was not smart enough, so it was no wonder that his descendants were stupid too..
