Mr. Yan, wake up! Your wife isn't a delicate little flower.

At 7 p.m., the two returned home.

"Beep beep beep!"

Upon hearing the car, Qin Shengxia jumped up from the sofa, shouting, "Sister!"

She pushed open the door and, taking advantage of Cheng Xihe's inattention, pounced on him.

Before Cheng Xihe could even see what was happening, he saw a dark shadow fly over.

She instinctively reached out and caught it.

Looking at Qin Shengxia, who looked aggrieved in his arms, Cheng Xihe asked in a low voice, "Xiaxia, what's wrong? Were you bullied at home?"

Bai family servant: I'm innocent!

"Why are you so upset after I've only been gone for less than a day?" Cheng Xihe asked with a helpless smile.

Qin Shengxia quickly waved her hands, shaking her head vigorously: "Sister, no one is bullying me here."

"Let's go inside and talk, don't talk at the door." Seeing that the two sisters were still standing at the door, Bai Ce reached out and pushed them inside.

He tossed the car keys to the security guard behind him: "Go park the car properly."

"Okay, boss."

Cheng Xihe pulled Qin Shengxia to sit on the sofa. "Tell me, what happened?"

"Sister, Dad has been calling me all day, but I'm afraid to answer."

She pouted, looking very aggrieved.

The girl who didn't dare to say a word when she was wronged in the Qin family back then now knows how to whine and complain to her older sister.

Glancing at Cheng Xihe's expression, Qin Shengxia whispered, "I was afraid he would scold me, so I didn't answer."

"Pfft!"

Bai Ce, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh.

Cheng Xi glared at Bai Ce, who shivered. "No, I dare not laugh anymore."

"Go on, what else?" Cheng Xihe looked at Qin Shengxia.

Shaking her head, Qin Shengxia said fearfully, "This is all we have, sister. Am I really useless?"

"Of course not."

Cheng Xi patted Qin Shengxia on the back reassuringly: "He's just not answering the phone, what's there to be afraid of? Your sister is here."

"Go and get my new phone." Cheng Xihe kicked Bai Ce with her foot.

Bai Ce quickly stood up: "Where is he, boss?"

"The black one on my desk in my room."

"Okay!"

Two minutes later, Bai Ce rushed over with his phone in hand: "Is this it? The new model phone."

"Um."

She bought this phone after returning to City A, using Qin Jian's black card.

After the SIM card was inserted, she hardly used it anymore.

At home, she also habitually keeps the phone on silent.

Now, when I turn on my phone, it's all red with dozens of missed calls.

Qin Shengxia's heart skipped a beat. She gripped Cheng Xihe's arm tightly, her fingers curling up in a tight motion.

"Sister, if we do this, Dad will definitely be angry when you call him later."

She's thinking now that she might as well just ignore it.

"What's there to be afraid of when you're angry? Boss is fearless." Bai Ce comforted Qin Shengxia.

Qin Shengxia: "Really? Really?"

"real."

Cheng Xihe stood up, smiled at her, and walked over to pat Bai Ce's clothes: "Help my sister have some fun. Figure out a way."

"Hey, boss!"

Bai Ce reached out his hand, but Cheng Xihe had already left without a second thought.

Inside the room, Cheng Xihe dialed Qin Jian's number.

It's dinner time now, so Qin Jian should be free.

"Beep beep beep".

The phone rang for about ten seconds before Qin Jian answered, "Feed?"

"it's me."

Cheng Xihe's voice was distant and cold: "What's the matter that you keep calling?"

"Cheng Xihe?"

Qin Jian was eating when he heard Cheng Xihe's voice. He immediately slammed his hand on the table and stood up, his furious voice coming through the receiver:

"You, Cheng Xihe, you've got some nerve!"

You've only been home for a few days, huh? And you've already run off with your sister! You completely disregard me!

Seeing that Qin Jian was truly angry, Zhang Zhiyue, who was standing nearby, sprayed saliva and the food she hadn't finished eating all over the place.

She frowned and silently put down her chopsticks.

Qin Yebai couldn't bear it any longer: "Dad, can you please find another place to make this call? Look at my food, how am I supposed to eat this?"

"Shut up!"

Qin Jian glanced at Qin Yebai, then got up and left.

As soon as he left, Qin Yebai immediately called out, "Butler Ye, get me a fresh meal, and make the dishes again."

"Yes, none of these can be eaten."

Zhang Zhiyue glared at Qin Jian's retreating figure, then looked at Butler Ye: "Change all these dishes."

"Yes, Madam, Young Master." Butler Ye quickly went downstairs to prepare the meal again.

the other side.

Qin Jian went to the garden, intending to have a good argument with Cheng Xihe: "Speak up, why aren't you saying anything!"

"Have you chewed the food in your mouth clean?" Cheng Xihe asked coldly.

Startled, Qin Jian's face turned red with anger: "Never mind all that, just tell me quickly, where did you take your sister?"

"You two, why aren't you home yet? What are you doing out there!"

"If you don't take him with you, will you still suffer injustice at the Qin family's house?" Cheng Xihe raised an eyebrow, leaning back on the sofa with a cold look in his eyes.

Qin Jian was momentarily speechless, then angrily said, "Are you making such a big deal out of this little thing?"

Don't forget, the money you're spending right now is mine, so you'd better behave yourself!

"Oh~"

After he finished venting, Cheng Xihe said casually, "So what? I'll just spend it."

There's just one thing I hope you understand: those two, mother and daughter, have bullied Xiaxia quite a bit, and you've always turned a blind eye.

"What, just because my mom died, you're bullying the two of us?"

Qin Jian was so speechless by these words that he almost fainted.

He gasped for breath several times, his anger rising even higher: "Cheng Xihe, those were just minor squabbles, Xiaxia didn't suffer any real harm."

"Susu has been with our family for quite some time now. She has always been very well-behaved and has never done anything out of line."

We're all family, don't make a mountain out of a molehill!

"Ouch!"

Cheng Xihe suddenly burst out laughing: "Didn't you see the surveillance footage? It's just a small fuss?"

You didn't even investigate before blaming Xiaxia. Wasn't it even worse before? What are you pretending to be, playing the good guy for!

"Cheng Xihe, please don't..."

Qin Jian was about to speak when Cheng Xihe interrupted him again:

"What was Xiaxia like when I first came back?"

Qin Ruosu is a young lady from a wealthy family, but doesn't she have any servants at home?

Why should Xiaxia hand-wash her dance costume?

All these years, have you been unaware, or have you been pretending not to know?

Qin Jian swallowed back the words she wanted to say.

He had always known that Qin Shengxia was being bullied by Qin Ruosu, but because of Zhang Zhiyue, he did not help Qin Shengxia.

He allowed Qin Ruosu to bully Qin Shengxia.

"Don't you see what Qin Ruosu is? If you don't want your eyes, I can gouge them out for you!"

Cheng Xihe had been too lazy to bother with it before, but now that Qin Jian insisted on being scolded, she wasn't going to be polite either.

"Qin Jian, don't forget how you made your fortune!"

Cheng Xihe said coldly, "Xiaxia and I are younger than Qin Ruosu. Because my mother passed away, I was sent to my maternal grandmother's house, and Xiaxia was bullied at home."

Are you asking me to go over these accounts with you one by one?

Qin Jian blushed crimson at Cheng Xihe's questioning, completely losing face: "You..."

"If you don't speak to me properly, don't blame me for being impolite. You should know that I can do it."

After Cheng Xihe finished speaking, he turned on the speakerphone on his phone and tossed it aside.

After a long pause, Qin Jian coughed twice: "I promise there won't be any of these. Now you should bring Xiaxia back right away."

"What kind of behavior is this, having you two living outside like this!"

"We can go back, but how are you going to resolve the grievances we've suffered?"

Faced with Cheng Xihe's renewed questioning, Qin Jian fell silent again...
