Chapter 358: Compensation

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Upon seeing Gu Chen’s expression, Mrs. Xu knew that this matter couldn’t just end smoothly. She made an effort to calm herself and said with a serious tone, “I understand that you care about Song Fan, and she has been wronged. However, the main culprit is ultimately her sister. This is a matter of the Song family and has nothing to do with my family.”

After seeing Gu Chen’s changing expression, she quickly added, “I will compensate her. I heard she is starting a jewelry brand and is planning to expand in the capital. I will give her the storefront in the central business district. We will assist with the store procedures, and I will personally attend the opening. Isn’t this compensation sincere enough?”

The Xu family’s storefronts in the capital were almost all in business centers. Gu Chen also knew about this gold shop, and the large storefront with high customer traffic was in a prime location. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xu easily gave it to Song Fan. It seemed that she genuinely felt sorry for Xu Wen.

When Gu Chen conveyed Mrs. Xu’s words to Song Fan, she showed no sign of joy on her face. With a cold expression, she said, “No wonder Xu Wen acts with such impunity. Her mother is willing to settle anything for her.”

“Xu family only has her as the heir.” Gu Chen knew she was unhappy, but there was nothing he could do about certain things. “All the evidence points to Song Yin; there are witnesses and material evidence. So, her responsibility is not significant. Moreover, she is severely disfigured now, with injuries on her body and a concussion. She can’t even speak now… Is this punishment enough for you?”

Gu Chen came to the hospital because of the friendship between Mrs. Xu and his mother, and also to seek justice for Song Fan. However, Xu Wen’s injuries were too severe. Some words were on the tip of his tongue, but he didn’t know how to express them.

“I know, even if I continue to pursue it, Xu Wen was just manipulated. Perhaps, she’ll just compensate with some money. I understand,” Song Fan sighed. “But having a store in the capital is not bad. Since the Xu family is showing respect, I’ll get some money from them when the time comes.”

Song Fan stirred her coffee, feeling somewhat uneasy. She hadn’t returned to the Song family yet, but she knew that when she did, there would be cries throughout the house because Song Yin’s death had been confirmed. Witness testimonies combined with DNA evidence, she found it hard to believe that Song Yin had died.

Upon seeing her unhappiness, Gu Chen changed the subject, “What are your plans for the jewelry brand? If you open a store in the capital now, you’ve offended the Xu family. It might be better to have the Gu family as a backer.”

After hearing his words, Song Fan laughed. “Hmph, wasn’t it because of you that I offended the Xu family? It’s only right for you to be my backer!”

She knew Gu Chen was teasing her, but her mood did improve a lot. “Gu family’s investment, I agree. But I want to be in charge of the brand. Full support from you, and I’ll take care of the rest.”

Gu Chen quickly raised both hands. “I’ll only provide the money, fully supporting you. I won’t interfere in anything else.”

Thinking about entering the Song Corporation soon, and recalling what Charlie had said before, Song Fan felt a lot of pressure. She didn’t know what she would face next.

By the time they returned to the Gu family, it was already evening. Although the villa was brightly lit, low cries could still be heard.

“My daughter, the daughter I’ve raised for over a decade, is gone just like that.” Meng Yu cried until her voice was completely hoarse, but she kept asking,

“Why did everything change? We were a happy family before. Why does my daughter have to die so miserably?”

Song Yi also sat on the sofa, smoking with a troubled expression. He had quit smoking for many years because Yu Wan disliked the smell, but with too many recent troubles, he could only relieve the pressure by smoking.

Meng Xia, on the side, wiped away tears. “Yes, when Yin Yin was here, there was always laughter in this house. I was always envious every time I came. But since sister returned, everything changed. Why did we have to send Yin Yin away? She’s just a teenager. How could she not hate it? Everything is hers, but it was taken away by others.”

Song Kai was originally sad on the side, but hearing her say this, he suddenly stood up. “Xiao Xia, what you said is not right. What do you mean everything is hers? This is all my little sister’s! She is the daughter of the Song family! That day, Song Yin was sent away because she confessed to poisoning me and framing my little sister. Isn’t that her fault?”

He felt that the current Meng Xia was a bit unfamiliar. She used to like Song Fan the most. Why did she suddenly change now? “Don’t speak recklessly. This has nothing to do with my little sister.”

“Enough!” Song Yi was now irritated by anyone defending Song Fan. “If it weren’t for her return, none of this would have happened! She should….”
