Chapter 64 pt 1 (1/2)
Hey readers!
I’m back! I’ll be updating Tuesday-Friday like I used to.
Sorry for the long break! (just finished my finals QAQ)
This chapter is pretty depressing, but it was a story I was waiting for. It is related to the previous chapter, so if you have forgotten what had happened, I would encourage you to reread the previous chapter.
Happy reading!

Almost as soon as his voice fell, Shen Fu sitting in his chair slowly said: “Since the dead Sun Hei died from a relapse of an old disease, the master of the academy could have just stated the truth. Or when the night is dark and wind is high, just throw the corpse in front of Qingyuan Academy. Why bother making such a complicated scheme?
“Furthermore, although the curator Gao is the owner of the academy, he is only a scholar after all. The son of a dignified wealthy businessman lied to the outside world that he was dead in order to achieve your goals. What kind of situation occurred for you to willingly do so? ?”
The word ‘you’ was spoken to Sun He.
As these doubts were uttered one by one, Sun He’s complexion changed from white to red, and from red to green, completely in a state of fright and terror.
But he was still compulsively calm and even wanted to maintain a smile, so his face was contorted.
Seeing him like this, Xue TingRang’s eyes faintly flashed coldly.
Man is really a very strange animal. When he is evil, he doesn’t feel he has done anything wrong, and he dares to do any unthinkable and appalling things. But when he is encountered with a crisis, he will still be afraid?
Why are you afraid? Xue TingRang constantly wonders but has not been able to understand this kind of emotion. He should be unafraid. Since he has done it, he must have the consciousness to take responsibility for the consequences.
“This child didn’t actually know what happened. But the owner said that there was an accident in the academy, and my parents at home were worried, so they said I should recuperate from my illness at home…” This excuse was a good excuse, but the liar is not calm enough. Anyone with eyes can see that this Sun He is lying.
But Shen Fu didn’t take it seriously and even discussed it with him with interest: “According to that, you are completely innocent. The chief culprit is this Gao academy owner?”
Sun He did not turn to look at Gao Youzhi and nodded.
When he went out, his father personally instructed that no matter what happened, just do not admit anything. As long as he doesn’t admit it, there is room for maneuver. With his family’s money, even in a life lawsuit, he can be bought out. What’s more, there are also magistrate Hu and Gao Youzhi. These two people have received silver from his family.
Thinking this, Sun He finally calmed down a bit and said, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask the owner of the academy.”
At this time, Gao Youzhi was in no better condition than him, but the boat is already sinking 1. If he can take responsibility for everything, maybe the magistrate Hu and the Sun family will protect him secretly. As long as the third young master Shen is gone, this county government is still where magistrate Hu has the final say. But if he was ignorant and bites back, even if the third young master Shen forgave him, County Magistrate Hu and Sun’s family would not forgive him.
“This matter really has nothing to do with him. I deliberately distracted him.”
Shen Fu laughed, seeming to hear some funny joke.
Just when Gao Youzhi and others were nervous and waiting for him to respond, he suddenly faced Xue TingRang: “Do you have anything else to say?”
Xue TingRang was not surprised that Shen Fu would ask him that.
In terms of outstanding talents, Shen Fu is not top-notch among the children of many families. At best, he is only middle-class. Because of this, there is that amazing and talented person who was awarded a jinshi 2 at a young age, and he is just a juren 3.
Because he is not talented, he is more serious than anyone else. That kind of serious attitude is extremely terrifying, and Shen Fu’s mind is also meticulous.
