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

"Xiaxia?"

Wearing slippers, Qin Shengxia rushed out of the living room, her face beaming with excitement: "Sister!"

"Ah, sister, you're finally back!" Qin Shengxia jumped around, hugging Cheng Xihe, like an adorable little child.

Cheng Xihe placed his hand on Qin Shengxia's head, then pulled her down, a smile on his face: "What's wrong? Are you bored at home? You can watch TV."

The two sisters opened their arms and hugged.

Cheng Xihe weighed it in his hand and joked, "It seems like you ate a bit too much, hahaha."

During her stay at Bai Ce's house, Qin Shengxia was living a very good life, much more carefree and happy than before.

Having no worries to think about and being able to be close to my sister is the best thing.

"Sister, you think I'm too heavy!" Qin Shengxia pouted unhappily, snorted, and turned her head away, but her eyes were glancing at Cheng Xihe.

With a soft chuckle, Cheng Xihe lowered his hand and patted her back, saying, "Don't stand here, go sit over there."

"it is good."

Not far away, Bai Ce quickly said, "You two sisters chat, I'm going upstairs to rest first."

"Um."

After Bai Ce left, Qin Shengxia sat down next to Cheng Xihe and hugged his arm. "Sister, I have nothing to do at home. All I do is eat and sleep. I miss you so much!"

"Okay, don't worry, Xiaxia, you can go out and play if you want. We'll have someone drive you there." Cheng Xihe looked at her with a smile in his eyes.

Qin Shengxia pouted, "Sister, how's the matter of Mommy's belongings?"

"It's resolved. I'll go find Qin Jian and get it back tomorrow."

Cheng Xihe patted Qin Shengxia's hand reassuringly and said, "You don't need to worry about that."

If you get bored, you can start studying the later lessons.

"Okay, I'm already looking at it." Qin Shengxia smiled.

She felt especially at ease when her sister was around, and she had the energy to do anything.

The two sisters whispered to each other for a while before Cheng Xihe said, "Alright, I'm tired after a long day, I'll go upstairs to rest first."

By the way, I'm moving out for a while. You stay at Bai Ce's place and take good care of yourself, okay?

"Sister, where are you going?" Qin Shengxia grabbed Cheng Xihe's arm and looked at her expectantly.

He patted Qin Shengxia's head and said, "There are some things I need to do, so I need to stay away from home for a while. Anyway, school will start soon."

"Oh……"

Qin Shengxia looked disappointed.

Cheng Xihe smiled helplessly: "Alright, alright, don't be angry. We still have a lot to do in the future."

"good!"

Nodding emphatically, Qin Shengxia watched Cheng Xihe return to his room.

The door closed, separating the two.

Qin Shengxia lowered her eyes, took out her phone, and edited a short message.

"Beep beep beep."

Not long after receiving the reply, Qin Shengxia's expression changed slightly.

She looked up and stared at Cheng Xihe's door for a long while before leaving with a sullen face.

The next morning, Cheng Xihe returned to the Qin family villa.

Early in the morning, apart from Qin Jian who had to go to work, no one would get up that early.

"Why are you back so early?" When Qin Jian saw Cheng Xihe come in, he was stunned for a moment, and then a sense of wariness appeared on his face.

He was sitting at the dining table, drinking hangover soup.

He got drunk with Yan Haiting yesterday and doesn't even remember how he got home. He woke up to find it was time for work again.

Cheng Xihe was too lazy to engage in any pretense with him.

She sat in the chair and went straight to the point: "I've already seduced Yan Mingchuan and gotten engaged to him."

Your cooperation with the Yan family is already on the agenda; now it's time to give me everything my mother left behind.

Cheng Xihe reached out her hand to Qin Jian, looking at him coldly.

"What did you say? Aren't we family?"

The things your mother left behind are also left to me. It's okay for me to keep them myself, right?

"Why did you have to take your mother's belongings?" Qin Jian's wicked intentions kicked in, and his entire demeanor turned into that of a rogue.

"Are you going to renege on your debt? Hand over my mother's jewelry box and other belongings right now." Cheng Xihe frowned as she looked at Qin Jian.

This person is a grown man, and he's already taken the benefits, yet he still wants to renege on his debt?

Qin Jian pressed his head, looking like he had a headache: "Ouch, ouch, my head hurts so much."

What jewelry box? There's a lot of messy stuff in the house. I don't even know where the things your mother left behind are anymore.

Besides, what are you after? That little bit of money? Didn't I give you a black card? Go buy whatever you like.

He rattled off a long string of words, including all sorts of things, but he showed no intention of handing over his belongings.

Cheng Xihe didn't speak, but his gaze gradually turned cold as he watched, and his hands slowly clenched into fists.

Her mother died when she was six, and she was sent away without even seeing her mother one last time, and that woman came into the house.

She hadn't even settled these scores, yet Qin Jian still dared to provoke her?

"Will you hand it over or not?" Cheng Xihe asked Qin Jian in a cold voice.

Qin Jian's heart skipped a beat from being stared at.

That look in your eyes is terrifying.

He glanced at her somewhat guiltily, then slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and adopted the posture of an elder.

"Cheng Xihe, don't think you're so great just because you've latched onto the Yan family. Let me tell you, you'll be abandoned sooner or later."

Without the powerful backing of our Qin family, do you think you could have fared much better in the Yan family?

I advise you not to go against me!

He raised his voice, as if trying to embolden himself by speaking loudly, thinking he could be more authoritative.

But he forgot that the person opposite him was Cheng Xihe.

Cheng Xihe scoffed coldly, "I've been too lenient with you!"

Before Qin Jian could react, Cheng Xihe made his move.

This time, she was still so fast that Qin Jian couldn't even see her.

She grabbed Qin Jian's hand that was pointing at her with her left hand, squeezed his wrist, and twisted it in the opposite direction.

The force is precise and intense, and the movements are swift and decisive.

"what!"

Qin Jian screamed in agony, the pain in his wrist making him open his mouth wide, almost losing his voice in agony.

"Trying to cheat, huh? Even if you're my own father, I'll still beat you up!" Cheng Xihe turned to the side and gave him a kick in the stomach with his right knee.

I already had a headache and felt unwell due to a hangover.

That's it, the pain woke me up completely.

"Hmm!"

Qin Jian tried to curl up like a shrimp, but Cheng Xihe held him firmly, making it impossible for him to move.

The elder's demeanor and bluster from before had vanished, leaving only a distorted, pained face.

Without giving him another chance to speak, Cheng Xihe pushed him back and pressed him against the wall: "Qin Jian, I respect you and treat you like my father, which is already giving you face. Don't be ungrateful."

She pinned him down with one hand and held her hand out in front of him: "I'll ask you one more time, where are the things my mother left me? Will you hand them over or not?"
