Chapter 223: Oscar Owes Him a Little Golden Man
Song Ci’s expression was somewhat unpleasant, her wrinkled lips pressed together, making her appear a bit more serious and stern than usual.
Had she not known about this matter, it would have been fine. But knowing it now, she must mention it to Madam Wei. Surely, she couldn’t knowingly let Wang Qiuman be thrust into a bad situation with a scoundrel.
However, she didn’t act impulsively. Madam Wei genuinely cared for Wang Qiuman and, to have found such a person for her, would have certainly conducted thorough investigations. If nothing improper could be found about that person, either he was hiding it well, or Shi Lang made a mistake?
"Nanny Gong, to what extent do you think Shi Lang’s words hold truth?"
Nanny Gong pondered for a moment: "Madam, you know, Fourth Master never involves himself in these matters and doesn’t make baseless claims. He is often outside, so he might have truly overheard something."
So it was to trust Song Zhiyu’s words.
Song Ci pursed her lips and said, "Indeed, to ruin someone’s marriage is to harm one’s karma. It is not in Shi Lang’s nature to be so indiscreet. However, if this matter is true, then Wei Cheng is quite the actor."
Even she hadn’t noticed anything amiss. Damn, Oscar owes him a little golden man!
"It is just so. The old servant sees that Young Master Wei is also so cultured and refined. I didn’t expect..."
Song Ci sneered, "Knowing a person’s face but not their heart, that’s the phrase indeed. I was just saying, wasn’t it odd how that Madam Marquis Weiyuan, who is willing to be so gracious as to find a match for the illegitimate son, hadn’t it been said that after she lost her legitimate son, she suspected his untimely death was the doing of Wei Cheng’s biological mother? If that is the case, why would she be so magnanimous and find a match for him? Surely there’s some underhanded intrigue here."
