The next day, Xie Limo was afraid that Yun Bixue couldn’t rest well, so he turned off all the alarms. He also instructed the servants to not disturb her.
A meaningful look was all he needed to give to his mother to let Ji Qiongxin know what she needed to do. She said softly, “Don’t worry, I know that you dote on her. I will have the servants make her meal, and she can eat whenever she wakes up. There won’t be anyone to disturb her.”
As Yun Bixue spent the entire day sleeping, Xie Limo had gathered all the evidence against the Shen family swiftly. He planned to use the Shen family as an example to warn the other wealthy families who might be harboring plans of their own.
After the meeting, all the relevant personnels of the Shen family were investigated. The court had ample evidence, and everyone involved in the incident of the Shen family had been put behind bars for the time being.
Old Master Shen was bedridden. However, just as the officials were going to catch people at the Shen family, a fire broke out. After the fire, many were injured or killed.
The other wealthy families had been keeping an eye on the Shen family. After seeing what had become of the Shen family, they were scared. They started to have overnight family discussions, even together with other wealthy families on what they ought to do next.
They were afraid that Young Master Xie was exacting revenge.
When Jia Dongkun heard what had happened to the Shen family, he was taken aback as well. He shivered while whispering, “It’s so frightening.”
Jia Dongkun’s mother cared a great deal for her son. She hugged her son who had become a bundle of nerves in worry. She asked, “What’s wrong, son?”
“Mum, you need to save me. Yun Bixue and Young Master Xie won’t let me off the hook so easily…” Every time he remembered how he had wanted to cause harm to Yun Bixue at Luxury Emperor, he shivered in fear. If he had known that things would end up as they had beforehand, he would never have dared to speak to Yun Bixue rudely.
He was so silly…
Su Lenghan had been extremely busy during this period of time as well. He was very irritated, and there was barely any time for him to relax.
Ever since Su Lengxian had woken up, she kept throwing tantrums, forcing him to take action to uphold justice in her name. In particular, taking actions against Meng Xinyan.
“Brother, I’m your biological sister. You can’t treat me in such a manner. Meng Xinyan had tried to harm me on purpose. I had fainted and she fled the scene without a care. Brother, you had always doted on me the most, haven’t you? Can you please discipline…”
Su Lengxian had artificial teeth implanted, but she still struggled to form words. Her face was unrecognizable too.
Su Lenghan shook his head and said, “Lengxian, she’s your sister-in-law. There must have been some kind of understanding. You should rest for the time being. I will deal with the matter as soon as I finish my work.”
Su Lengxian burst into tears. She cried, “Brother, are you biased towards that bitch? Brother, you’re always protecting her…”
Su Lenghan’s gaze grew cold. He said, “Lengxian, she’s your sister-in-law. Don’t be so rude with your words.”
“Brother, she’s in your good books now, but you don’t know that she had done a lot of vile things in the past. That day at Luxury Emperor, she had intended to harm Yun Bixue. Yun Bixue was lucky though… The incident on the media was also directed by her behind the scenes… Meng Xinyan also tried to harm her biological sister… Brother, don’t be fooled by her appearance…”
Su Lenghan’s hand that was holding the financial statement paused. He raised his head and stared intensely at Su Lengxian
Su Lengxian’s heart skipped a beat. It was the first time that her brother had looked at her in this way. She panicked and said, “Brother, I’ve said nothing but the truth.”
Su Lenghan punctuated every word of the sentence as he said, “You mean that it was Meng Xinyan who harmed Yun Bixue?”
