After Xia He jumped down, she didn’t hear his voice again.
Xia Jiang looked at Song Yan and said, “Wife, you can go up first. Xia He’s waiting for us inside. We’ll be fine. Besides, the ground is full of mud. We won’t be hurt even if we fall.”
Song Yan’s legs trembled a little, but she gritted her teeth at the thought of getting the token. She stepped on the bluestone and used Xia Jiang’s push to finally reach the wall. However, when she looked into the courtyard, she didn’t see Xia He.
Song Yan looked at the people outside the wall in a panic. “Why don’t I see Xia
He? Isn’t he waiting for us inside? Did something happen?”
“What about Xia Wan?” Xia Jiang frowned. “Can you see her family in there?”
Song Yan continued to look around, but it was all dark. There was no one at all, and there was no movement. She shook her head. “No.”
Xia Jiang said, “Then he must have gone to explore the way first. Don’t worry, and just down. You’ll be fine. Just think about our daughter’s future, and you’ll be more motivated.”
At the mention of Xia Ru, Song Yan regained her courage and jumped down.
Next, Chen Lian and Song Yan had to exert some effort to help Xia Ye up the wall. Xia Ye ate a lot, but she didn’t have much strength. She had to rely on Xia Jiang to help her up the wall.
After sending Xia Ye over, Xia Jiang was so tired that he squatted on the ground and panted.
Li Jin urged him, “Why are you resting? Hurry up and go over. You’re all alone now. Hurry up and take the token. We’ll leave quickly. It’s the middle of the night. I don’t want to be left outside alone.
Urged by Li Jin, Xia Jiang didn’t dare to rest any longer. He climbed over the wall in a few steps.
The next moment, his nose and mouth were smothered, and he lost consciousness.
Li Jin was still waiting outside, but after 20 minutes, it was all silence on the inside. The panicked Li Jin paced back and forth.
20 minutes later, a police car came over. Li Jin was so scared that her face turned white. She subconsciously wanted to run but was stopped by a police officer.
“You must be Li Jin. You are suspected of trespassing on private property, and I’m placing you under arrest.”
Li Jin struggled. “What are you guys talking about? I didn’t break into private property. This is where my son lives. I’m here to look for my son. What right do you have to arrest me?”
At this time, the lights in the villa came on, and the door was opened. Xia Wan stood at the front, holding Chen Lian and Xia Ye in her hands. Behind her, Xia Chen and Xia Feng were also holding two people each. These people were all tied up with hemp ropes, and their mouths were stuffed with cloth.
“Mmmmh.” They struggled and wanted to say something, but Xia Wan took the cloth out of their mouths and immediately heard their curses.
Song Yan scolded, “You b*tch, how dare you treat us like this? We’re your elders. You drugged us and tied us up. You unfilial thing. You’ll get your retribution and be struck to death by lightning!”
When Xia Ye saw that the police had arrived, she was so frightened that she immediately started crying and shouted. “We didn’t do anything! Officer, please don’t arrest us! I’m still studying! I still have a bright future ahead of me.”
Xia Wan sneered. “Now you know you have a bright future. Where have you been all this while? Don’t you know it’s illegal to break into someone’s house in the middle of the night?”
Xia Ye sobbed and looked at Xia Wan. “Xia Wan, I’m your cousin. How can you do this to me? Tell the police that it’s all a misunderstanding.”
Officer Lin, who was in charge of this incident, came to Xia Wan and asked, “You’re the one who called the police?”
Xia Wan nodded.
“Then you come with us too. We’ll record your statement and explain this matter.”
“Alright,” she said.
Xia Wan was about to follow, but Xia Chen quickly said, “I’ll go with him. I’m her elder brother.”
Xia Feng also wanted to go, but Xia Wan stopped him. According to Xia Wan, Xia Chen could go with her, and Xia Feng could stay behind to take care of his family.
At the police station, Xia Wan and Song Yan got their statements taken separately.
Officer Lin was in charge of questioning Xia Wan.
“Tell me, what happened?” Officer Lin asked.
Xia Wan put on a pitiful expression. “It’s a little embarrassing to talk about this. The people who broke into our house this time were my grandmother, two uncles, aunties, and my cousins..”
