Song Lijun couldn't help but take a step back, still unable to believe it.
"How can it be fake? We... we went to the doctor together, Linlin and I."
"That doctor was bribed by Kai before you even went. So he issued a fake diagnosis report as they needed."
Song Lijun felt her head spin. She never imagined she would become a pawn in Catherine's scheme to harm Wei Yumeng.
If Catherine was the one who administered the poison, and she had deliberately put it in the chicken soup she made, and then she unintentionally became a witness to depression.
All of this pointed to Catherine deliberately pulling her into it.
If she hadn't thought of making chicken soup for Wei Yumeng, Catherine wouldn't have thought of poisoning the soup.
Song Lijun's vision suddenly went blank. She stumbled back several steps, and Feng Zhenhua promptly supported her.
Before, she had always sided with Catherine, even protecting her when Zhan Mohan and Wei Yumeng came to settle scores.
But now, it seemed that everything was likely done by Catherine.
"Lijun, how are you feeling?"
Feng Zhenhua frowned, looking at Song Lijun as if she was about to faint, his eyes filled with worry.
"Zhenhua, did I really do something wrong? I just wanted both children to be well? But why has it become like this?"
"This is all Catherine's choice. Although we are her parents, we can't fully comprehend what she's thinking."
"Zhenhua, has Linlin been taken away by the police yet?" Song Lijun asked.
Feng Zhenhua nodded.
"Are we just going to stand by and watch Linlin spend the rest of her life in prison?" Song Lijun grabbed Feng Zhenhua's hand excitedly.
Feng Zhenhua gently squeezed it back: "We don't know what will happen yet. Although Linlin has been arrested, we can't predict the sentence beforehand."
"Then let the company's legal counsel handle this matter. We must get Linlin out on bail."
But Feng Zhenhua looked at Song Lijun and shook his head.
"Zhenhua, what do you mean?"
"Lijun, calm down. The reason Linlin has become like this is because every time she made a mistake, we covered for her. This has made her fearless. We can't indulge her any further."
Song Lijun pushed Feng Zhenhua away: "What do you mean by that? She's our daughter! Are you really that heartless?"
Feng Zhenhua clenched his fist: "What else can I do? Zhan Mohan has thoroughly investigated this matter, and the evidence is irrefutable. What else can we do?"
"Right, I can go beg them again. Yumeng will definitely agree."
As Song Lijun spoke, she rushed out of the house on her own and headed towards Wei Yumeng's home.
Wei Yumeng looked at her children and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Everything had finally reached a conclusion. She no longer had to worry about anyone suddenly appearing to harm her and her children. Zhan Mohan would also be at ease and wouldn't force her to stay home every day.
She truly felt pity for Feng Zhenhua and Song Lijun. Regardless, she still planned to visit the elderly couple after some time.
But at that moment, a servant informed Wei Yumeng that Song Lijun had arrived.
As soon as Song Lijun entered, she grabbed Wei Yumeng's hand: "Yumeng, can you help us? Linlin didn't do all that intentionally. She's ill, and she couldn't control herself when her illness acted up."
Wei Yumeng looked at Song Lijun's appearance and felt a pang of sympathy. However, she eventually withdrew her hand.
"Mrs. Feng, I'm sorry. I've already given Catherine one chance. This time, she even targeted my children. You are a mother, you should understand how I feel."
But Song Lijun didn't give up: "Yumeng, I'm willing to pay any price for what Linlin has done. I'll do my best to compensate you. You can ask me to do anything, but can you spare Linlin?"
As she spoke, Song Lijun made to kneel before Wei Yumeng. This time, Wei Yumeng did not stop her.
"If I spare her, will she just come and harm my children again?" Wei Yumeng finally couldn't take it anymore and raised her voice at Song Lijun.
However, after saying that, Wei Yumeng also realized her outburst and suppressed her anger: "I'm sorry, I got too emotional just now."
Song Lijun was indeed frightened by Wei Yumeng's attitude, but it also jolted her.
Indeed, if she were in the same situation as Wei Yumeng, she wouldn't forgive someone who tried to harm her child. How could she then beg Wei Yumeng for forgiveness?
Wei Yumeng still personally helped Song Lijun up, sat her on the sofa, and poured her a cup of hot water.
Song Lijun sat on the sofa blankly. She wanted to help Catherine, but what could she do now?
Wei Yumeng sighed and sat down beside Song Lijun: "Mrs. Feng, I know you are very upset right now, but there are some things you cannot help her with. Everything has become like this because of Catherine's own choices."
Song Lijun remained silent, somewhat surprised that Wei Yumeng said the same thing as Feng Zhenhua.
"We gave her a chance before, and Mohan let her go. But she didn't seize that opportunity. What else can others say?"
After agreeing to Song Lijun's previous request, she and Zhan Mohan had no intention of bringing up past matters. But Catherine had truly gone too far.
"Did I really do something wrong?" Song Lijun asked softly.
She now felt that perhaps it was precisely because she had always indulged Catherine that Catherine had become this way. It was all her responsibility.
Wei Yumeng quickly shook her head: "You are a good mother. Catherine just doesn't know how to cherish it."
Hearing Wei Yumeng's words, Song Lijun felt a little more at ease. Perhaps such words from others were just meant as comfort, but Wei Yumeng was Song Lijun's biological daughter, and her words carried more weight than anyone else's.
Although Wei Yumeng herself was unaware of this relationship.
After finally sending Song Lijun off, Wei Yumeng felt even more angry. Catherine had such a good mother, yet she didn't know how to cherish her. She wished Catherine could see firsthand how worried Song Lijun was about her.
To make Catherine realize how foolish her actions were.
As soon as Zhan Mohan returned after handling some business, he saw Wei Yumeng sitting there with an angry expression.
"What's wrong? Isn't everything over?"
Wei Yumeng looked at Zhan Mohan and said, "I want to see Catherine again."
