Traitor

In the end, it was Wang Ning’s family who brought Xing Xiaoya and Wang Ning home.

In the damp lobby, Wang Ning could only lie on a chair because his meniscus had been shattered. Xing Xiaoya was curled up on the floor mat, unable to move.

The two of them looked at each other and saw the other party’s miserable state, making them feel a sense of loss.

“Xing Xiaoya, it’s all your fault. If it weren’t for your lousy idea, how could I have provoked Qiao An?” Wang Ning accused Xing Xiaoya in pain.

“I never expected Xing Chen to go crazy when Qiao An died. If I knew that Qiao An was so important to XIng Chen, I wouldn’t have provoked them. Xing Xiaoya, you jinx. You’re the one who harmed me.”

The evil couple also began to fight between themselves.

Xing Xiaoya had no one to rely on now. In the huge village, only Wang Ning’s family was willing to save her. She couldn’t offend this last backer. Xing Xiaoya cried, “Brother Wang Ning, it’s not our fault. Xing Chen went too far. Let me tell you, Qiao An isn’t dead. It’s illegal for him to punish us like this.”

She began to urge the Wang family to sue Xing Chen. “Uncle Wang, you know the law. Qiao An isn’t dead, which means that we were wrongly accused of committing a crime. Xing Chen was overly defensive when he took revenge on us. He was breaking the law. You’ll definitely be able to sue him.”

Wang Ning spat at her. “Pfft, Xing Xiaoya, are you coming up with bad ideas again? Haven’t I been harmed enough by you? How can I still believe you?”

Xing Xiaoya said earnestly, “Brother Wang Ning, Qiao An isn’t dead. We’re not guilty.”

Wang Ning’s father fell into deep thought.

“Xing Xiaoya is right. As long as Qiao An isn’t really dead, you didn’t murder anyone. Even if you were the arsonists, at most, you can compensate Xing Chen for his loss. But if XIng Chen sends people to beat you up until you’re paralyzed, that will be a huge crime.”

With Wang Ning’s father’s analysis, Wang Ning’s expression instantly brightened.

Wang Ning’s father asked Xing Xiaoya, “But hasn’t Qiao An been burned to death? I haven’t seen her these past few days. How do you know she’s still alive?”

Xing Xiaoya said, “Xing Chen told me personally.”

Wang Ning’s father said very cautiously, “If Qiao An dies, you’ll be carrying the weight of a human life. It’s best if we don’t call the police. But if Qiao An is still alive, Xing Chen beating you up is far more serious than your crime of arson. We can sue him.”

Wang Ning was a little traumatized by Huo Xiaoran. He reminded his father fearfully, “So the priority is to confirm if Qiao An is alive or not. Dad, don’t be impulsive.”

Wang Ning’s father said, “Don’t worry, we’ll get someone to find out.” Then, Wang Ning’s father looked at Xing Xiaoya.

“Uncle, how can I make a move?” Xing Xiaoya could tell that Wang Ning’s father wanted her to go home and investigate the situation, but she was covered in wounds and could not move. How could she complete the mission?

Wang Ning’s father said, “Are you stupid? Xiao Ya, your father left the Xing family’s house to you. Why should Xing Chen occupy it? I’ll get someone to carry you back to the Xing family and get someone to stay there to serve you. This way, our spy can check on their situation.”

Wang Ning said excitedly, “Dad, that’s a good move. Who should take care of Xing Xiaoya?”

Wang Ning’s father placed his hands behind his back and paced back and forth in the house. Then, he suddenly had an idea and said, “Why don’t you let your wife do this?”

Wang Ning immediately waved his hand. “Dad, you can’t. It’s not like you don’t know that Chen Jing is unreliable. She married me and wants to escape all the time. How can she help us with all her heart?”

Wang Ning’s father’s face darkened. “This Chen Jing has been married to you for two years, but she’s still not obedient.”

Xing Xiaoya suddenly thought of something and said to Wang Ning’s father, “Uncle Wang, I suddenly remembered something. That day, when I discussed arson with Brother Wang Ning, Chen Jing fainted on the ground. Could it be that she tipped Qiao An off so that Qiao An could escape death?”

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Ning and the others looked at each other.

Could they feel at ease with a traitor in their family?

Wang Ning gritted his teeth in anger. “This bitch dares to betray me. Call her out. I want to teach her a lesson.”

Wang Ning’s mother walked towards the inner room.

She suddenly let out a scream and ran out a moment later with a pale face. “Wang Ning, your wife isn’t at home. When did she go out?”

Wang Ning was stunned.

He fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he looked up and gritted his teeth. “No wonder I’ve been sleeping so soundly recently. It must be this woman’s doing. She sneaks out every day.”

Wang Ning’s mother said sinisterly, “If she comes back tonight, we have to think of a way to lock her up. We can’t let her run around.”

Wang Ning’s father said, “This is strange. Since she ran out, why did she come back?”

Realization dawned on Xing Xiaoya. “I understand. She must have gone to help Qiao An. Chen Jing must have saved Qiao An that day. These days, Qiao An has been hiding, but in fact, Chen Jing has been secretly helping her. As long as we know where Chen Jing is, we know where Qiao An is.”

The facts gradually became clear.

Wang Ning was furious. Thinking that if Chen Jing hadn’t hidden Qiao An, Huo Xiaoran wouldn’t have misunderstood that Qiao An was dead and he wouldn’t have beaten him up.

“Chen Jing, I’ll make you suffer.”

To his surprise, Chen Jing carried the hoe home at noon.

Seeing the gloomy expression on everyone’s faces in the lobby and Xing Xiaoya gloating over her misfortune, Chen Jing already knew that her matter might have been exposed.

She said calmly, “Dad, Mom, have you eaten? I’ll cook.”

Wang Ning roared, “Chen Jing, stop pretending. Tell me, did you save Qiao An?”

Chen Jing pondered quietly for a moment before raising her head and saying, “Yes, I saved Qiao An.”

“How dare you betray me?” Wang Ning grabbed the ashtray beside her and threw it at her.

Chen Jing dodged.

Wang Ning became even more furious. “You still dare to dodge?”

Chen Jing said, “If I hadn’t saved Qiao An, Wang Ning, you would have been a murderer. You should thank me.”

Wang Ning was actually extremely glad that Chen Jing had saved Qiao An, but he just couldn’t accept Chen Jing’s betrayal.

This provoked his male chauvinism.

Chen Jing continued, “Do you know who you offended? If Qiao An dies, let me tell you, your Wang family will never be at peace.”
