"But this time the opponent is Leng Chuanjin."
"Do you think the old man has a 100% chance of winning against him?"
Hearing Chief Lin's words, Xie Qian's voice suddenly turned cold.
"Uncle Lin, do you have too little confidence in my father and our Xie family?"
"Weren't you the one who volunteered to take charge of the police station back then?"
"You've received so many benefits from our family, but now, just a little sign of trouble makes you waver?"
"Master Xie, what are you talking about?"
Chief Lin's tone was tinged with anger and a hint of guilt at being exposed.
"Anyway, I have more important things to do now."
"If you have nothing else to report, then hang up."
After saying that, Xie Qian hung up the phone mercilessly, not giving Chief Lin a chance to say another word.
Chief Lin listened to the "beep, beep..." sound on the phone and gritted his back teeth in anger.
Among the Xie family members, he trusted the old man the most, and then Xie Qiaoyang.
As for this eldest son, Xie Qian, he hadn't had much contact with him.
It should be said that he hadn't had much contact with him before he came to this police station as the chief.
When they were still in the army, most of the time, the old man showed up with Xie Qiaoyang.
Any discerning person could tell that the old man clearly intended to pass on the Xie family to his younger son.
However, recently, for some reason, he couldn't get in touch with Xie Qiaoyang.
Almost every time, it was always Xie Qian who answered his call.
What problems could Xie Qian solve for him? All he knew how to do was pass the buck.
Deep down, he actually looked down on this eldest young master.
But now was not the time to dwell on this.
He slumped into his chair and began to think about his countermeasures.
After all these years in the officialdom, he had at least left himself some way out...
Xia Sanghuan sat in the back seat, silently flipping through Fu Lingshi's examination report.
It showed that apart from a slight inflammation at the wound, there was nothing seriously wrong with him.
As her eyebrows gradually relaxed, her father and sisters beside her also let out a sigh of relief.
"Huanhuan, what's the specific situation?"
Fu Zeming asked carefully, afraid of getting any bad news.
"Brother is fine."
"Dad, you don't have to worry too much."
After hearing her words, Fu Zeming hesitated for a long time, but still asked the question he had wanted to ask earlier.
"Then why did you ask the doctor for the daily examination reports?"
"To formulate a more effective treatment plan for Brother to help him recover."
"After all, everyone wants him to come back soon, right?"
She closed the report and calmly told a lie.
"Where are we going now?"
Afraid that they would continue to ask questions, she quickly changed the subject.
"Huanhuan, I'm really sorry."
"Normally, we should take you home to rest properly."
"But now, Grandpa, Grandma, and Xiaokai are all at home."
"If you go back, it might..."
Before Fu Moning could finish speaking, she nodded.
"It's okay, Second Sister."
"I'm fine staying at Brother Chuanjin's house."
"After all, it's just a shelter where no one will find me, right?"
Her understanding answer made Second Sister breathe a sigh of relief.
"Then we won't go in."
"Chuanjin should be out now. It's not very appropriate for us to just go into someone else's house."
Xia Sanghuan nodded obediently, hugged her father and sisters goodbye, and then turned to enter the Leng family mansion.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Xia Anying sitting with Leng Wanqing.
Seeing her come in, Xia Anying showed a mocking smile.
Wang Fu, who was standing beside, didn't expect her to come back at this time and quickly stepped forward to greet her.
He took the coat she handed over, hesitated for a moment, and then leaned over to whisper in her ear.
"Miss Xia, I always feel that your sister has some bad intentions this time."
"Why don't you go into your room now? Just let me know on your phone if you need anything, and I'll bring it to you."
"I'll also send someone to deliver your dinner when it's ready."
She gave the butler a grateful look and nodded.
"Okay, thank you."
It was really precious that Uncle Wang still treated her the same way after she was stigmatized.
However, some bad things just seemed to follow her.
After talking to the butler, she walked straight upstairs without giving Xia Anying and Leng Wanqing a single look.
Her "arrogant" and "aloof" attitude immediately annoyed Xia Anying.
She stood up from the sofa, walked quickly in front of Xia Sanghuan, and reached out to block her way.
"What do you want?"
The girl glanced at her and said expressionlessly.
Xia Anying got even angrier because of her fearless look.
Why could she still be so calm?
Shouldn't she be scared?
Shouldn't she be trembling?
She gritted her teeth and tried to make her face look less ferocious.
"Huanhuan, I saw a news article about you this morning."
"Can you tell sister what exactly happened?"
"Sister will see if she can help you."
She tried hard to put on what she thought was the gentlest smile, but in fact it only made her face look more distorted.
"No comment."
Facing her sister's obvious false concern, she didn't want to waste any more time on her.
"Xia Anying, has anyone ever told you?"
"You're really bad at lying."
After saying that, she was about to bypass her without hesitation.
However, Xia Anying was not an easy person to deal with. She took a couple of steps and blocked her way again.
"Huanhuan, I'm really worried about you."
"Although we don't see each other often and always bicker."
"But I won't let you go down this path!"
As she said this, she pretended to hold Xia Sanghuan's hand affectionately.
As if she didn't remember at all that she was also one of the culprits of this incident.
The girl looked at their clasped hands and nodded in disgust.
"Sister, can you let go? I don't have that much time to play around with you."
"I still have a lot of things to deal with. And what do you mean by 'won't let me go down this path'?"
"Do you have some misunderstanding?"
"How could I have a misunderstanding?"
"It's clearly written in the news!"
As she said this, she rummaged through her bag and took out her phone.
Then she loudly read out the title of the news article.
For a moment, the whole house fell silent.
Wang Fu stood there, not knowing whether he should step forward to persuade them.
The other servants put away their tools and quietly left the scene, afraid that one of the young ladies would fly into a rage and take out their anger on them.
"Xia Anying."
"Why are you so boring?"
