554 Preparing to Return to the Capital

Xing Xiaoya finally understood what it meant to have nothing to live for. She fell to the ground and tears rolled down her face.

The police officers quickly shackled Wang Ning and Xing Xiaoya and one of them scolded sternly, “Xing Xiaoya, you’re suspected of arson with the intent to murder Qiao An. Please come back with us for interrogation.”

Although there was still a formal process to follow, there was evidence regarding Xing Xiaoya’s culpability in the arson case. She could not escape the law.

Xing Xiaoya no longer had the strength to resist. She only looked at Xing Chen unwillingly. This was the man who had once given her years of gentleness. His gentleness supported her greedy desires. When her desires swelled, he mercilessly kicked her back to her original world.

!!

Before Xing Xiaoya left, she asked Huo Xiaoran with teary eyes, “Will I be able to see you again in this life?”

Huo Xiaoran’s face was tense. “But I never want to see you again.”

Xing Xiaoya cried even harder. “If it weren’t for Qiao An, would you have always been so good to me?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “No. I didn’t like your selfishness from the beginning. I took care of you only for Father Xing’s sake.”

Xing Xiaoya woke up from her dream and cried her heart out.

“Brother Xing Chen, you can’t treat me like this?”

Huo Xiaoran frowned and scolded unhappily, “Take her away.”

After the police took Wang Ning and Xing Xiaoya away, the Wang family’s parents collapsed to the ground. Wang Ning’s mother wailed, “Where’s my son going? How can I live if you leave?”

Qiao An looked at the silent Chen Jing. She endured the pain in her body and walked up to Chen Jing with difficulty. “Chen Jing, tell me everything that happened to you. Don’t miss out on all the participants who committed crimes.”

Chen Jing nodded firmly. Then, she began to recount her tragic encounter. From the moment she fell in love under poor judgment, to the time her boyfriend sold her to Wang Ning, to the times she escaped and asked the village head for help and was ignored by the village head. Then she shared about how Wang Ning’s parents abused her, causing her physical and mental health to be greatly damaged. It could be said that she covered everything. Her statement made the village head and Wang Ning’s parents break out in cold sweat again.

Because too many accomplices were suspected in the case, the town officials handed it over to its upper levels. Soon the case was established and a close search began.

The village head and Wang Ning’s parents were condemned and pressured. During this period of time, they clearly looked much older and dejected.

They were no longer as arrogant and domineering as before. The villagers were all in high spirits and united to choose a new village cadre.

This time, the villagers had learned their lesson. Short-term benefits might blind them. They were no longer willing to choose those who had given gifts to canvass for votes. Instead, they chose the responsible Dahai.

Peace finally returned to the village.

A few days later, Chen Jing’s parents came to the village. When they saw their thin and dull daughter, they hugged their heads and cried.

Chen Jing’s father was so angry that he picked up the kitchen knife and was about to slash the Wang family. “They destroyed my daughter. I want to kill them.”

Huo Xiaoran pulled him back and comforted him. “Do you want to break the law? It’s not advisable to kill a thousand enemies and harm yourself. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely think of a way to cure your daughter.”

With Huo Xiaoran’s help, Father Chen’s mood improved slightly. He regained his rationality, but he also felt that even if he didn’t let the Wang family pay with their lives, he had to teach them a lesson.

Therefore, he brought Chen Jing’s relatives to the Wang family aggressively.

The Wang parents closed the door tightly, not daring to open it at all.

Wang Ning’s mother was extremely afraid at this moment. She scolded Wang Ning’s father crazily, “It’s all your fault. It’s all your fault. You insisted on buying a daughter-in-law. What is the outcome of that? For a daughter-in-law, we lost our son. We won’t be able to live in peace when we’re old.”

Wang Ning’s father’s hair turned white overnight. He felt very burdened at the thought that he would not have any descendants.

Wang Ning’s mother’s argument upset him. He raised his hand and slapped her. He scolded angrily, “Your son is gone. What’s the use of saying this now?”

Wang Ning’s mother pointed at the door. “Did you hear that? Chen Jing’s family is clamoring for you to give an explanation outside. If you have the ability to hit me, why don’t you have the ability to go out and see him?”

Wang Ning’s father was provoked by her and suddenly turned to walk towards the door.

He opened the door and Chen Jing’s uncles immediately waved their fists at him.

Wang Ning’s father hugged his head and curled up into a ball. Beside his ear was Chen Jing’s father’s roar. “I raised my daughter painstakingly. What gave you the right to treat her like this?”

Her father’s anger, helplessness, and hysterical roars made Wang Ning’s father feel lingering fear.

It was also in this huge anger that he felt the fatherly love of Chen Jing’s father. It was no less than his love for Wang Ning. At that moment, perhaps he had felt guilty, but he finally cried tears of repentance.

“I’m sorry.”

Chen Jing’s father kicked him. “The damage has been done. What’s the use of apologizing? You ruined my daughter. I’m going to kill you.” With that, he lost control and pounced on him.

His brothers pulled him back. “You’ve already hit him. You’ve vented your anger. If you beat him to death, do you want to get yourself into jail?”

Chen Jing’s father left in extreme anger.

After Wang Ning’s father was safe, he slowly let go. He felt hot blood gurgling in his nose and blood flowing from the top of his head.

Wang Ning’s mother ran over. “What’s wrong?”

Wang Ning’s father looked at Wang Ning’s mother in hatred and instantly vented his anger at her. He waved his fist at her. “B*tch, it’s all your fault. You asked me to open the door.”

Wang Ning’s mother was not to be outdone. The two of them fought. In the end, they were both injured and fell to the ground. Wang Ning’s mother said with a desolate expression, “I was wrong. From the day I married you, I was wrong.”

Wang Ning’s father fell to the ground in despair. He said weakly, “What’s the use of saying this now?”

Wang Ning’s mother cried her heart out.

At the same time, on Chen Jing’s side, Chen Jing’s family decided to bring her home to to recuperate under the comfort of their closest relatives.

Qiao An said to Father Chen, “Uncle, your daughter saved my life. My husband is an influential figure in the neurosurgery department, Li Xiaoran. If you don’t mind, bring her to the capital. My husband will treat her.”

Father Chen was grateful to Qiao An. “An’an, you’re really my daughter’s savior. If it weren’t for you, we would still be on the way to find Chen Jing. It’s all thanks to you. Don’t worry, after my Jingjing goes home to see her mother and sister, I’ll immediately bring her to the capital to seek medical treatment. At that time, I hope Miss Qiao An can help us.”

“Go on.”

As everything came to an end, the return trip was on the agenda.

When Huo Xiaoran got into the car home, tears welled up in his eyes.

Qiao An hugged him tightly. “Brother Xiaoran, treat this place as a dream. After you wake up from the dream, return to your family.”

Huo Xiaoran nodded.

Qiao An and the children fell asleep quickly in the car. Only a few big men were left. They looked at one another.
