"Brother Zhiheng, is there something else you haven't told me?"

Jiang Jinning was taken away by Yu Mengxi and Su Qingyan. They went to Xia Zhiheng's house, and she was in a bad mood.

Xia Zhiheng and Xia Yichu stayed to take care of Grandma Xia. Xia Zhiheng had just told Grandpa and Grandma Xia the good news.

However, Xia Zhiheng himself was worried. He was in a bad mood after leaving the room, which is why Xia Yichu asked him that question.

"Yes"

Xia Zhiheng walked over and sat down next to Pei Shizhou, who had just returned from buying mung bean cakes.

"Although the sperm in Jiang Jinning's body is not Zhiqian's, that person and Zhiqian are related to me by blood."

Most importantly, Xia Zhiqian didn't understand what role his mother played in all of this.

"The Yang family," Pei Shizhou and Xia Yichu said in unison.

"Yes, the police have already gone to arrest them."

He was worried that his grandmother would be anxious about Xia Zhiqian's matter, so he rushed back to tell them the good news after learning about the test results.

The police have gone out to arrest and interrogate all the men in the Yang family. If things take a while, we should know the results by tonight; if things go quickly, we should have results in an hour or two.

"Shizhou, I can't leave. Could you go to the police station and keep an eye on things for me?"

Xia Zhiheng was worried about his grandmother and also concerned about potential problems at the bureau. Pei Shizhou looked at Xia Yichu, who nodded.

"Okay, I'll go."

No sooner had Pei Shizhou left than Zhou Wenbin brought his grandparents to visit Grandma Xia.

The two elderly people were chatting with Grandpa and Grandma Xia inside the room, while Zhou Wenbin, Xia Yichu, and Xia Zhiheng were talking at the door.

"Uncle Zhou, besides putting the drug on things, what other ways are there to drug someone without them knowing?"

Zhou Wenbin stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "There is another possibility, which is that it is transmitted through the air. Some specially made sedatives can evaporate into the air, and once a person inhales them, they will be affected."

However, this kind of drug is quite complicated to make, and it requires a specific environment to be effective.

Xia Zhiheng frowned. Would his mother have such a drug? No, impossible. Where would an ordinary person like her get such things?

"So, Jiang Jinning and Zhiqian were probably drugged in some enclosed space," Xia Yichu said thoughtfully.

Xia Yichu continued, "Zhiqian was taking care of Yang Yunxia in her room while she took her medicine, so it's not surprising that he was drugged."

What about Jiang Jinning? Did she say what she did before going out that night?

"I don't know, I didn't ask."

In any case, his mother is the prime suspect right now, but there's also a problem Xia Zhiheng has to face: if his mother really did administer the drug, then her identity becomes questionable.

This time, if there's evidence, Xia Zhiheng will send her to jail without hesitation. This can't go on; who knows what other harmful things she might do?

"Uncle"

Suddenly, Xia Zhiheng saw a car stop, and one of the people who got out was his uncle. Xia Guoan's expression was solemn as he walked straight towards them.

"Zhiheng, Xiaochu, how is your grandma?"

He received and read Xia Zhiheng's letter. Before he could even process its contents, he received a call from Xia Zhiheng saying that his mother was seriously ill and in the hospital receiving emergency treatment.

He immediately applied to his superiors to go home. Xia Zhiheng gave a general account of Xia's grandmother's situation, and Xia Guoan's eyes were full of worry after listening.

"How could so many things have happened at home? I'll go see your grandparents first, we can talk about other things later. Wenbin, thank you."

After thanking Zhou Wenbin, Xia Guoan glanced at Xia Yichu, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. In the end, he didn't say anything, sighed, and went inside.

"Xiao Chu, it's all my mother's fault that Auntie is in this situation, so don't blame Uncle."

Xia Yichu didn't respond. There was no point in saying anything now; Yang Yunxia had done so many bad things and harmed so many people. Xia Yichu only wanted her to be punished; she didn't need an apology.

Xia Zhiheng gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Chu, I will not tolerate her this time. As long as there is evidence, I will bring her to justice immediately."

Zhou Wenbin patted Xia Zhiheng on the shoulder. "You did the right thing. We can't let her run wild anymore. By the way, any news from the police?"

"Shi Zhou has gone to keep an eye on it; we should have results tonight."

"Okay, let's not stand outside, let's go inside!"

Because of Grandma Xia's recent illness and hospitalization, Zhou Wenbin has not yet gone to the Pei family to tell him that Pei Zongyu is not Pei Feng.

The group entered the room, where Xia Guoan was sitting on the edge of the bed, gently comforting Grandma Xia. Xia Zhiheng went to Grandpa Xia's side and asked about Grandma's condition. Grandpa Xia patted his hand, telling him not to worry too much.

Just then, a voice came from outside the door, it sounded like Yang Yunxia's.

"Why is no one outside? Mom and Dad, so you're both inside."

Yang Yunxia carried a lunchbox in her hand, a fake smile on her face, as she entered the room. Her face was still a little swollen from being beaten by Xia Yichu yesterday.

When Xia Zhiheng saw her, his eyes instantly turned cold, and he stood up to block the way in front of Grandma Xia's bed.

What are you doing here?

"Xia Zhiheng asked coldly. Yang Yunxia was taken aback for a moment, then quickly put on her feigned expression again."

"Zhiheng, why didn't you tell me when your grandma was discharged from the hospital? I cooked some porridge and went to the hospital. The nurse said your grandma was being discharged, so I quickly brought the porridge over."

Grandma Xia saw that Yang Yunxia was very angry and wanted to stand up and scold her, but she was not in good health and could only glare at Yang Yunxia and point her finger at her.

"Get out, get out..."

Seeing that Grandma Xia was emotional, Xia Yichu quickly went over to comfort her.

"Grandma, don't be angry."

Xia Guoan frowned, stood up and said, "My mother doesn't want to see you, you should leave now."

Yang Yunxia refused to leave and tried to squeeze closer to the bed. She almost bumped into Xia Guoan, who quickly took two steps back.

"I came to see Mom in good faith, please don't send me away."

Xia Zhiheng grabbed her arm. "Stop pretending. The police are already investigating the Yang family. Once the results are out, you'll be paying the price for your actions!"

Yang Yunxia's expression changed, but she quickly regained her composure. Pretty quick, huh! They found out about the Yang family so fast. But it doesn't matter, as long as her goal was achieved.

"Zhiheng, I'm your mother, and the Yang family is my maternal family. They are your uncles and cousins. What do you intend to do to them?"

"What did I do to them? Didn't you harm them? Come on, come with me."

Xia Zhiheng roughly pulled Yang Yunxia toward the door. Yang Yunxia struggled desperately and shouted, "This is unfilial of you! I am your mother! You can't treat me like this!"

Xia Zhiheng glared at him angrily: "What exactly do you want? Why do you have to turn this family into a mess instead of living a peaceful life! And you even dragged Jiang Jinning into this. You've ruined her life, do you know that?"

She was just unlucky; her family background made her easy to fool. Unfortunately, she didn't have time to prepare aphrodisiacs that night, which allowed Xia Zhiqian to escape unscathed.

There had been no news from the Jiang family these past two days, so she went to inquire around the area and found out. It turned out that Jiang Jinning had a stepmother, and her family background was quite good.

She wasn't favored at home, and the Jiang family didn't take action against Xia Zhiqian and Xia Zhiheng on her behalf. Oh well, as long as she achieved her goal, that's fine.

No, I didn't.

"Get out! Get out of here!"

Xia Zhiheng pushed Yang Yunxia out, and Yang Yunxia stumbled and almost fell.
