In the courtroom, Song Zhizhi did not give Zhu’s mother time to think.

She asked Wen Tian to play another video.

“This video was taken in a corner of the backyard kitchen of our Song Family mansion, a place the internal surveillance of our mansion cannot reach. The video comes from another of our servants, Liu Chun. In the video, you can see Zhu Fengdan handing something to Zhou Xiaoqing. The drugstore bag in Zhu Fengdan’s hand suggests that it’S an abortion drug. I have also brought Liu Chun, who filmed the video, to the scene,” said Song Zhizhi.

“Call the witness.”

Song Zhizhi nodded, and Liu Chun came to the stand.

Song Zhizhi asked, “Xiaochun, don’t be afraid. Just recount what you saw and experienced.”

“Yes, Miss.” Liu Chun took a deep breath, still fearful considering the scale. She said, “On the afternoon of March 28, I was cleaning in Miss’s house. I saw Zhu’s mother return in a hurry, with something hidden in her arms. Seemingly anxious, she asked Xiaoqing, who was cleaning with me, to leave. I felt something was wrong, so I secretly followed them out. I saw this scene between Zhu’s mother and Xiaoqing. Miss had asked me to keep an eye on Zhu’s mother before, so I filmed it.” “Why didn’t you bring these up as soon as you filmed them?” Song Zhizhi asked.

“Because I was so far away that I couldn’t hear what they were saying. I didn’t even know what they were doing, so I thought it couldn’t serve as any evidence. Then, Young Master Ji found me. At that time, I thought Miss was doomed to be convicted, so I was worried about being kicked out of the Song family if I revealed this and it was found by Zhu’s mother. It was only after Young Master Ji’s repeated persuasions that I brought it forward. I originally thought it was useless.” After Xiaochun finished, she said embarrassingly, “I’m sorry, Miss.”

“I can understand you,” Song Zhizhi said with a slight smile.

Xiaochun was simply trying to protect her job after all. If she was not there, she would have to rely on Zhu’s mother.

Song Zhizhi turned to the Judgment Chief and said, “Xiaochun thought the video, where she couldn’t hear what Zhu’s mother and Xiaoqing were talking about, wouldn’t count as evidence, so she was hesitant to hand it in. I’ve had modern technology enhance the sound. Let’s hear what they talked about.”

Song Zhizhi signaled Wen Tian to turn up the volume.

With some surprise, they heard their dialogue from the video.

“Here’s the abortion drug. Put it in the chicken soup as I instructed and give it to the second Miss to drink. You remember what I told you before, right? You don’t need me to repeat it, do you?”

“I understand.”

“After this, all the money is yours. You don’t need to worry about your parents, brothers, and sisters, I will take care of them.”

“Thank you, Zhu’s mother.” Xiaoqing’s tone didn’t sound too enthusiastic.

The video ended.

Facing Zhu’s mother, Song Zhizhi asked, “Do you have anything to say?” Zhu’s mother’s face was deathly pale by now.

Looking at Song Zhizhi, she couldn’t utter a word for a long time.

“It’s okay if you don’t want to speak now,” said Song Zhizhi to the Judgment Chief. “I request that

Zhou Xiaoqing be brought back to the court.”

“Granted.”

Xiaoqing was brought back to the stand once again.

“Your deal with Zhu’s mother is now out in the open. Why did you falsely accuse me of instructing you to give Nie Xiaofei the abortion drug?” Song Zhizhi interrogated.

Xiaoqing looked at herself and Zhu’s mother talking in the video displayed on the screen. Shocked, she couldn’t utter a word and could only look at Zhu’s mother.

Zhu’s mother was also frightened out of her wits by now. Both were clearly exposed, leaving no need for a trial.

Of course, she wanted more than just to clear her name. Next, she had to draw out the hidden puppeteer!

Song Zhizhi’s eyes deepened, and a sharp gaze was cast towards Nie Xiaofei. Nie Xiaofei shuddered with fear, her entire body trembling uncontrollably..
