After learning that Xu Lingxia was already in the police station, many people immediately thought about getting him out.

In their minds, this matter is ultimately a family matter, and if it is not handled properly it may affect the reputation of the Xu family.

The Xu family will prosper together, so it is better to keep a low profile.

But Xu Yunian and others firmly disagreed.

She was completely furious when she learned about this. Her sister was actually instigated to be killed, and the murderer was even right next to her, but she knew nothing about it.

She found ways to meet Xu Lingxia, and then started fighting with her without any explanation.

After being pulled apart, she felt particularly unwilling and unable to vent her anger.

When the Xu family was in a mess, Xu Xiu began to pack up and prepare to leave.

She thought she would become the target of public criticism, so she moved out of the Xu family after doing all this.

But later she suddenly discovered that the Xu family seemed unaware of her threat to kidnap Xu Lingxia.

Later she found out that Mr. Xu had admitted everything and denied her kidnapping, which caused all the anger of Xu Lingxia's family to be directed at him.

Even Xu Yunian just thought that Xu Xiu found some clues from the relics, and then Mr. Xu became suspicious after learning about it, and then he followed the clues and implicated this matter. In a fit of rage, Mr. Xu sent the man to prison.

Xu Lingxia is the daughter of Mr. Xu’s younger brother, and his younger brother’s descendants came one after another to plead for mercy.

Perhaps it is because Mr. Xu has retired behind the scenes for many years, and everyone has forgotten his once tough tactics. Everyone has many open and covert complaints and accusations against him, blaming him for ignoring the overall situation.

Finally, Mr. Xu got completely furious.

He drove away all the people from his brother's lineage who came to plead for mercy, forbidding them to set foot in the Xu family's gate again. He then began to divide up the Xu family's property, took back the care he had given them over the years, and asked them to leave the company.

Under such thundering measures, no one dared to say anything more.

Who would care about Xu Lingxia when they can barely protect their own interests?

In the end, Mr. Xu broke off completely with his brother. He held on and supervised Xu Lingxia's case throughout the whole process, not allowing anyone to interfere.

Finally, when everything was settled, he suddenly collapsed and was admitted to the hospital.

The outcome of this matter was much better than Xu Xiu had imagined.

Now that Mr. Xu is in the hospital, it is not convenient for her to leave at this time, so she can only stay for the time being.

Mr. Xu fainted due to a sudden attack of anger and some underlying illnesses he had suffered over the years.

When he woke up, he seemed to have suddenly aged twenty years. He looked listless and had almost lost his former energy and spirit.

When he saw Xu Xiu standing on the periphery, he waved to her and everyone hurriedly made room for her.

When Xu Xiu walked over, Old Man Xu held her hand and spoke with difficulty:

"I am sorry for you and your mother. This is my sin. If you want to hate someone, just hate me. I just hope you can regard the Xu family as your home."

Mr. Xu knew that she might have some grudges against the Xu family, but he hoped that after this incident, she would be able to completely let go of it.

Xu Xiu looked at his weathered face and nodded slightly.

Old Master Xu cleared her from the matter and tried his best to avoid any grudge between her and the Xu family. Xu Xiu understood the painstaking efforts behind this.

During this period of time, Xu Xiu's focus was almost entirely on her mother's affairs. When she had some free time, she noticed Shen Xingyi and Xiao Douding, who had been following her and exuding resentment.

The little boy didn't understand what was going on. He only knew that his mother had been very busy recently. He hadn't eaten or slept with his mother for a long time, so he missed her a little.

Shen Xingyi knew too well what had happened, so he felt heartbroken and increasingly depressed.

After she discovered something so unacceptable, she chose to solve it alone.

This living person was right in front of her, but she turned a blind eye and took the risk to kidnap and coerce him alone.

This made Shen Xingyi feel a little scared, and there was inevitably a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Xu Xiu felt a little confused when they stared at her. She touched her nose and said:

"what happened?"

Xiao Douding spoke first:

"Mom, can we have dinner together tonight?"

"Of course, go take a shower first, and I think dinner will be ready soon."

After the little bean was taken away, Shen Xingyi couldn't bear it any longer.

His eyes were dark, and it was clear that he was unhappy.

"why did not you tell me?"

Shen Xingyi saw all her torment and fatigue during this period, so he said nothing, but just accompanied her silently and provided enough help when she needed it.

But now, he really wanted to ask.

"If you need help, you can always come to me."

When he learned that Xu Xiu would rather go to an unfamiliar security team than talk to him, Shen Xingyi admitted that his defense was indeed broken.

In fact, Xu Xiu also hesitated at that time.

It would definitely be the most convenient and safest to talk to Shen Xingyi, but once you ask him, he will definitely ask you to the end. Even if you don't answer, he will investigate privately.

It just so happened that a security team she had met on the crew was in City G, so she asked her assistant to hire them directly.

This team that serves celebrities all year round has very good confidentiality measures, so Xu Xiu felt relieved and did not tell Shen Xingyi.

but……

She looked at Shen Xingyi, whose face was gloomy and cold, and the corners of her eyes slightly raised for a moment:

"Why should I look for you? What does my business have to do with you?"

Shen Xingyi was stunned, and his dark pupils trembled, as if he had suffered a huge blow.

Yeah, what is their relationship? Why should I tell him?

Ah.

Shen Xingyi felt a tightness in his chest and suddenly wanted to sneer.

That's right, he was the one who was being sentimental all along.

In an instant, the feeling of self-loathing reached its peak.

Seeing him becoming increasingly silent, as if the air around him had become thinner, Xu Xiu suddenly spoke:

"you like me."

She used declarative sentences.

These sudden words exploded in Shen Xingyi's ears, causing him to open his eyes and look towards Xu Xiu.

She had a faint smile on her lips and was looking at him quietly.

Shen Xingyi's lips couldn't help but move, and the pair of phoenix eyes hidden behind the lenses lost their composure and became flustered.

Xu Xiu took a step closer to him, raised his head slightly and stared at him:

"You really like me?"

The straightforward words and her approaching made Shen Xingyi's earlobes feel hot and he almost couldn't breathe.

He couldn't answer.

An inexplicable emotion was aroused in his heart, and Shen Xingyi's heartbeat began to become uncontrollable. His slightly clenched fists also made the muscles in his arms tense instantly.

His reaction made Xu Xiu's smile deepen. She continued to move closer, looking at him innocently:

"You like me so much?"

Her three consecutive questions completely shattered Shen Xingyi's composure, and he stood there stiffly.
