Xia Sanghuan, who had been suppressing her anger, instantly sank her face.
"You came back just for this after such a long time?"
She snatched Xia Anying's phone and slammed it to the ground.
With a crisp cracking sound, the phone shattered into pieces.
Looking at her brand - new latest - model phone that she had just replaced not long ago, Xia Anying let out a shrill scream.
Pointing at the broken pieces on the ground, she shouted at Xia Sanghuan angrily.
"What right do you have to smash my phone!"
"You came here to cause trouble, so you have to bear the consequences."
"Xia Anying, you've done so many wicked things."
"Aren't you afraid that one day I'll get revenge on you?"
As she spoke, she stepped on the smashed phone with one foot.
She was wearing low - heeled shoes today. As she increased the pressure on her foot, the phone was completely broken into two halves.
Seeing her useless phone, Xia Anying was so angry that she pushed her hard.
The girl staggered but was quickly steadied by Wang Fu, who was standing behind her.
Xia Anying turned her head, winked at Leng Wanqing, and said to Xia Sanghuan at the same time.
"You're a murderer, yet you still have the nerve to live in the Leng family?"
"For Brother Chuanjin's sake, I advise you to move out soon!"
"Wanqing, am I right?"
After receiving her wink, Leng Wanqing turned her head away and mumbled in response.
"Y - yes."
She was no longer the angry person she was when chatting with Xia Anying just now.
What's going on?
Xia Anying frowned and continued relentlessly.
"Wanqing, didn't you just say..."
"I do plan to let her move out."
A cold male voice suddenly rang in their ears.
"But it's just to let her lie low for a while."
"She can avoid those rats that come out to take a bite of her while the iron is hot."
Leng Chuanjin walked over slowly, emphasizing the word "rats" especially.
His voice was soft, but his tone was so cold that people couldn't help shivering.
"Ch - Chuanjin Brother."
"Why are you home so early?"
Xia Anying was startled and quickly regained her usual delicate and obedient appearance when facing the man.
"What? Can't I go home whenever I want in my own house?"
He walked to Xia Sanghuan's side, put his arm around her shoulder, and let her lean against him.
"Xia Anying, as Xia Sanghuan's elder sister."
"After such a thing happened, shouldn't your first reaction be to listen to her explanation?"
"Accusing your younger sister of being a murderer right away, you're being too cold - blooded, aren't you?"
Xia Anying looked up at the man in front of her.
Different from his usual cold look, he now looked like a lion waking up from a dream, extremely intimidating.
She felt cold sweat breaking out on her back.
Her mind was in a mess, and even her once - aggressive tongue became stiff.
"I, I just don't want her to remain obsessed."
"Brother Chuanjin, you know how serious it is to kill someone. I just wanted to..."
"Enough!"
"I don't want to hear such a lame excuse."
After saying that, he took Xia Sanghuan and walked around her towards the stairs.
Before leaving, he turned back.
"I think Miss Xia Anying should better not come back to the Leng family in the future."
"If you have any requests, just tell Wanqing, and then let Wanqing convey them to me."
"After all..."
He opened his mouth and spat out a few cold words.
"I don't want to see you at all."
After saying that, he took the girl and left without looking back.
Xia Sanghuan also remained silent.
The scene just now was really embarrassing.
Although many people had asked her about this and she had already read the news herself.
But being publicly accused like this still made her feel unbearable.
Although she knew that Second Brother might teach Xia Anying a lesson, she didn't want to care anymore.
Because this was what her "good elder sister" deserved.
When they got back to the room, she felt that she could breathe more smoothly.
She sat down on the soft chair wearily, closed her eyes, and let herself sink into the soft backrest.
The room was very dark, probably because of the cloudy day.
Leng Chuanjin turned on the light in the room. Seeing the girl looking a bit listless, he used the machine in her room to make her a cup of hot cocoa.
He handed the cup to her. The sweet aroma made her sit up.
"What's this?"
She took the cup.
It wasn't hot but still had some warmth, just right to warm her cold hands.
"Hot cocoa. Drink it."
She took a sip and was immediately captivated.
"Second Brother, how was it after you left school today?"
Thinking of the news she had seen about Leng Chuanjin, her heart couldn't help but hang in the air.
"It's okay."
"By the time I left, the school principal had already taken action."
"So I wasn't surrounded. All the news about me has also been deleted."
He said nonchalantly and reached out his hand to her.
"Do you want another cup?"
The girl was stunned for a moment and then handed the empty cup to him.
The man turned around and made another cup for her, then put it back in her hand.
"Don't worry too much. I can handle all these things."
As he said, he ruffled her hair.
"Second Brother, what you just said about moving out..."
"Is it true?"
The girl asked somewhat dejectedly while sipping her cocoa.
Although she knew that Second Brother's arrangement was for her own good, she still felt a bit reluctant to part with him.
"It's true. And I'll move out with you."
"What?"
Hearing this, her mouth opened wide in surprise, and the hot cocoa in her cup almost spilled out.
"I'll move out with you. Is there any problem?"
"No, of course not. It's just that it will be inconvenient for you to travel. And..."
"There's no 'and'.
The man said as he sat down beside her.
"Mother has already found a house for us. Pack up tonight, and we can move in tomorrow."
"Also, I can avoid those unscrupulous reporters who are always lurking around the Leng family."
So it's just to avoid the reporters?
Xia Sanghuan tightened her grip on the cup.
"And you're a girl, so you need someone to take care of you. I can protect your safety better if I'm by your side."
These two simple sentences instantly made her heart that hadn't had time to feel sad jump for joy.
She curved her eyebrows and showed the happiest smile in the past two days.
Seeing the girl's smiling face, the man turned his gaze away somewhat uncomfortably.
"Then it's settled. See what you need to pack. We'll try to move everything in one go."
