Chapter 25: Kicked Out of the Xia Family
“Also, you and your husband handled my parents’ funeral arrangements back then, didn’t you? I really want to know the cause of their deaths now. Can you tell me?” Xia Chenge stared at her intently, her gaze like a sharp blade piercing the heart.
As soon as these words were spoken, Xia Minglan felt as if two venomous snakes were tightly constricting her throat, making it difficult to breathe.
No one knew better than she did how Xia Mingxuan had died!
“Xia Chenge, your parents’ deaths have nothing to do with me. Stop spewing nonsense!” Xia Minglan was completely flustered.
“I didn’t say you killed them, so why are you so agitated?” Xia Minglan’s reaction confirmed her suspicion: they were definitely involved in the original owner’s parents’ deaths!
At this moment, Xia Minglan wished she could just faint. Xia Chenge was too terrifying; she had never seen such a frightening young girl, as if she could read minds and see through everyone’s deepest secrets!
Who was helping Xia Chenge from behind the scenes? Could it be Ling Hanmu? Thinking of this, Xia Minglan’s blood seemed to freeze, and she panicked: if the past events were thoroughly investigated, she could very well end up in prison and lose everything!
With this thought, Xia Minglan desperately wanted to leave the Xia family and discuss the matter with Xu Jingyi.
Seeing this, Xia Chenge sneered. She had only meant to scare Xia Minglan a little, and Xia Minglan had already lost her composure and revealed her hand. What a wicked and foolish, malicious woman! The mastermind was undoubtedly Xu Jingyi!
But Xia Chenge wanted more than just to reclaim the Xia family; she also wanted Xu Jingyi and Xia Minglan to be ruined and lose everything slowly! How could she let Xia Minglan leave so easily now?
So, as Xia Minglan neared the main gate, Xia Chenge leaped up and landed steadily in front of her.
Xia Minglan screamed in fright at the sudden appearance of the figure, and her hair stood on end when she met Xia Chenge’s face, which held a devilish smile.
“Why are you running? Did I say I’d let you go?” Xia Chenge asked with a half-smile.
“You, what do you want? Xia Chenge, I warn you, don’t do anything rash!”
“I just want to tell Auntie that I hope my parents’ deaths have nothing to do with you. Otherwise…”
Xia Chenge casually picked up a fist-sized stone ornament from the side and squeezed it hard. The ornament instantly shattered into powder, which sprinkled down from Xia Chenge’s hand.
Xia Minglan was petrified.
“Someone, throw Xia Minglan out of the Xia family for me,” Xia Chenge shouted loudly after frightening Xia Minglan enough.
Servants and bodyguards appeared at the sound.
“Remember, drag her out,” Xia Chenge emphasized word by word.
“Anyone who dares to lay a hand on me, I’ll take your lives,” Xia Minglan shrieked hysterically.
They hesitated, intimidated, and dared not step forward.
“Murder is punishable by death. I’ve recorded all of this. If anything happens to you, Xia Minglan will be the prime suspect. Murder is punishable by death, so what are you afraid of?” Xia Chenge waved her mobile phone.
Although Xia Chenge’s expression was calm, her innate aura made people instinctively trust her. They stepped forward, grabbed the screaming and struggling Xia Minglan, and dragged her towards the door. Xia Chenge followed them out.
“Xia Chenge, you little slut, I’m not done with you!” Xia Minglan yelled, seeing Xia Chenge behind her, “Jinx, I hope you die a horrible death.”
“Your voice isn’t loud enough. Should I get you a megaphone to put to your mouth so you can announce to the world that I’m going to die a horrible death?” Xia Chenge said with a smile.
“One day, I will repay all of this a thousandfold,” Xia Minglan gritted her teeth.
“Then I’ll be waiting. I hope that day doesn’t take too long,” Xia Chenge chuckled. Only those with ability would shout to maintain their dominance; in reality, they were all paper tigers. Truly capable people let their fists and results speak!
As they spoke, they had already reached the Xia family’s main gate.
Those people were still banging and smashing at the gate, while the Xia family’s bodyguards stood far away, on guard.
The servants stopped in their tracks upon seeing this.
Xia Chenge walked past everyone and approached the iron gate alone.
The troublemakers were stunned when they saw the charming and lovely Xia Chenge.
When they snapped back to reality, the leader pointed at Xia Chenge and said, “I won’t stoop to arguing with a young girl. Hurry up and let your master come out, or I’ll smash down the wall.”
Xia Chenge stood there without speaking, but the people outside inexplicably felt an indescribable chill.
She suddenly took another step forward. The people outside involuntarily took a step back, staring at Xia Chenge with extreme caution.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Xia Chenge proceeded to unlock the iron gate.
The Xia family’s servants’ eyes widened instantly, their hearts leaping into their throats: It’s over, it’s over! We shouldn’t have relied on a little girl!
But to everyone’s surprise, as Xia Chenge stood by the gate, she exuded a fierce aura, like a lone guardian capable of holding off ten thousand enemies.
“Throw them out!” she commanded in a deep voice.
The servants instinctively obeyed, lifting Xia Minglan and throwing her out like trash into the crowd.
“Ah…”
Clang!
As Xia Minglan fell, Xia Chenge closed the iron gate.
Watching Xia Minglan, covered in dirt, through the gate, Xia Chenge smiled faintly.
“Smash the Xia family!” Xia Minglan, having lost her reason, climbed up and yelled at the leader, “If you don’t smash the Xia family today, I won’t give you a single cent!”
Bingo!
This was exactly what she was waiting for!
The smile on Xia Chenge’s face widened.
Just as the thugs rushed forward, and Xia Minglan stared at Xia Chenge with a look of satisfaction and malice: “Little slut, today I’ll make sure you die a horrible death!”
Xia Chenge calmly raised her mobile phone, letting Xia Minglan see the video being recorded.
By the time Xia Minglan reacted, those people were already smashing the Xia family’s iron gate with a clatter. She broke out in a cold sweat: Xia Chenge had deliberately set her up to be humiliated!
“Stop, all of you, stop!” Xia Minglan rushed forward, trying to stop them.
However, those people were already in a frenzy and wouldn’t listen to her at all!
Xia Chenge signaled the servants to retreat, while she stood unmoving in front of them, facing the troublemakers.
At that moment, those behind her looked at Xia Chenge’s small, delicate back and slowly felt a sense of security, as if standing behind Xia Chenge, all danger would be blocked by her…
Xia Chenge wasn’t worried that the thugs could smash anything in the Xia family. After watching the show for so long, it was time for Ling Hanmu to make his move!
At the same time, a pained scream was heard from the back of the crowd, followed by the troublemakers being grabbed from behind and thrown out one by one.
When they came to their senses, half of their companions were already lying on the ground.
Ling Hanmu, with an imposing presence, stood behind them with his hands clasped behind his back, a playful smile on his handsome face: “Come at me together. It’s too tiring for this Young Master to fight you one by one.”
