Punishing the Wang Family

Xing Xiaoya stared into Qiao An’s eyes, which were beautiful and as bright as peach blossoms. Xing Xiaoya didn’t understand why Qiao An, who she had bullied, could never reveal any embarrassment on her face. She was always optimistic, inducing Xing Xiaoya’s jealousy.

Xing Xiaoya said, “Don’t you hate me?”

Qiao An smiled. “Hate an unknown nobody like you? Why bother? Xing Xiaoya, your greatest luck is picking up Xing Chen who was suffering from amnesia. Otherwise, you and I will always be from two different worlds. I’m with the high and mighty clouds and moon, and you’re just an ant in a ditch. It’s a waste of my time to argue with a despicable person like you.”

Xing Xiaoya was furious. Her beautiful face was drowned in humiliation.

“Qiao An, why didn’t you die?” she said viciously through gritted teeth.

Qiao An smiled sweetly. “Xing Xiaoya, you’re unlucky if I’m not dead.”

Perhaps because Qiao An had been inside for too long, Huo Xiaoran, who was outside the door, was a little worried. He called out softly, “An’an, let’s go.”

When Qiao An turned around and pulled open the door, Huo Xiaoran was standing at the door, his tall body as handsome as a white poplar. He picked Qiao An up by the waist and complained dotingly, “Your injuries haven’t healed yet. How can you worry about these things?”

Qiao An wrapped her arms around his neck affectionately and said coquettishly, “Brother Xiaoran, I might have caused you trouble again.”

Huo Xiaoran said angrily, “How can you say that your matters are trouble to me?”

Qiao An said, “I want you to save Chen Jing.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Aren’t you going to wait for her parents?”

Qiao An said, “No more waiting. Every day she stays with the Wang family is torture.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

Through the open crack in the door, Xing Xiaoya stared blankly at Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An’s intimate appearance. His eyes were smiling so gently, and the starlight in his eyes was like the resplendent light of the galaxy.

At that moment, Xing Xiaoya knew very well that whether she believed it or not, Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran’s love was not fake. They had always been the one true pair.

It was love that she could not even be jealous of.

Huo Xiaoran carried Qiao An away.

Wang Ning’s mother secretly ran home and shouted to Wang Ning’s father, “Dad, bad news.”

Wang Ning’s father was smoking his pipe. When he saw Wang Ning’s mother, he immediately took off his pipe and asked anxiously, “Did you hear anything?”

Wang Ning’s mother said, “Huo Xiaoran is sending someone to save Chen Jing. Moreover, I heard from Qiao An that Chen Jing’s father is also here. His father is a special police officer who specializes in combating trafficking. We might have to suffer this time.”

Wang Ning’s father hesitated for a moment. In a flash, he made a decision.

“What if Chen Jing dies?”

Wang Ning’s mother widened her eyes. “This is not a small crime.”

Wang Ning’s father said, “If we let them find Chen Jing, our kidnapping crime will be settled. But if Chen Jing dies and there’s no evidence, we can make up stories. As long as we insist that Chen Jing was picked up, let’s see what they can do to us.”

Wang Ning’s mother didn’t have a mind of her own. Wang Ning’s father’s words made sense to her so she instigated, “Then we have to do it quickly.”

Wang Ning’s father said, “Take her to the back mountain to work and think of a way to make her fall off the cliff. When the time comes, say that she died accidentally.”

Wang Ning’s mother was a little flustered. Wang Ning’s father scolded her ruthlessly, “Go quickly. Do you want something to happen to our son? Wang Ning is the only child of our family. Nothing can happen to him. He still has to carry on our Wang family’s bloodline.”

Wang Ning’s mother composed herself and walked towards the pigpen in the backyard.

“Chen Jing.” She walked into the pigpen and took the initiative to untie her.

“Aiya, you’ve suffered. Go take a shower and live a good life with Wang Ning in the future.”

Chen Jing looked at her in a daze. Wang Ning’s mother pulled her out and washed her up before putting on her clothes.

Then, she stuffed a basket into her hands and said, “Let’s go and hunt for pig grass.”

Chen Jing was like a puppet, at her mercy.

However, after she and Wang Ning’s mother left the Wang family, Wang Ning’s father invited his brothers to secretly follow Chen Jing. “Supervise her. Don’t let her escape.”

Unexpectedly, just as Wang Ning’s mother and Chen Jing reached the entrance of the village, Huo Xiaoran walked over with a few bodyguards.

When Wang Ning’s mother saw Huo Xiaoran, she cowered in fear.

However, she forced herself to be calm. “Xing Chen, what… what do you want to do?”

Huo Xiaoran waved at the bodyguard and said, “Take Chen Jing away.”

Wang Ning’s mother protected Chen Jing. “Xing Chen, she’s the daughter-in-law of our Wang family. What right do you have to bring her along?”

A bodyguard walked up to Wang Ning’s mother and took out Xiao Ming’s position certificate. Wang Ning’s mother couldn’t read and stared with wide eyes.

“What’s this?”

“My young master’s military certificate. He has the right to investigate Chen Jing in plain clothes. If you interfere with us again, we’ll take you away as an obstruction.”

Wang Ning’s mother fell to the ground in fear.

Wang Ning’s father rushed out. “Who would believe that you’re officers? Who knows if your thing is real?”

The bodyguard said, “Don’t worry, the people above will be down soon. Just wait.”

With that, they forcefully took Chen Jing away.

Wang Ning’s parents’ faces were ashen.

When Chen Jing arrived at the Xing family, Qiao An saw the delirious Chen Jing and knew that she must have suffered a lot in the Wang family these past few days. Qiao An said sadly, “Chen Jing could have escaped the Wang family, but in order to save me, she had no choice but to run back and bring me food.”

Huo Xiaoran patted Qiao An’s back and comforted her. “Don’t worry, we’ll definitely help Chen Jing get back what she lost. I will be responsible for treating Chen Jing’s illness.”

Qiao An was overjoyed to hear that her illness could be cured. “Brother Xiaoran, this is great.”

The next day, Chen Jing’s family, including the town officials, came to the village in a huge commotion.

The bodyguards brought Xing Xiaoya and Chen Jing to the village head. At the house of the village head, they were interrogated.

And Qiao An attended the interrogation as a victim.

It was ridiculous. The domineering village head was simply insufferably arrogant in front of Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An, but in front of the town officials, he was useless.

As a victim, Qiao An expressed everything that had happened recently with clear articulation.

She emphasized the intent of Wang Ning, the village head, Xiaoya, and the others as they disregarded human lives. “They rely on the fact that the sky is high and the authorities are far away here to do whatever they want and treat human lives as nothing. Such thoughts are very terrifying. Today, they met me, Qiao An. I have the ability and backing, but it was difficult for me to protect my interests. If they had turned to the other villagers who are weak, the villagers will definitely suffer.”
