Upon hearing this, Xia Jianlin chuckled awkwardly twice before replying, "Second Brother, what are you saying! How could I have any other intentions? I just saw how difficult your life is right now, so I thought I'd come and do my best to help you."

However, Xia Tao, standing to the side, sneered without any politeness: "Hmph! You would sincerely help us? Forget about helping, we should be grateful if you don't harm my father! Besides, how did you even know my father was in the hospital?"

Xia Wan narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze fixed on the person in front of her like two cold beams of light.

Her lips curled up slightly, forming a cold and mocking smile that seemed to freeze the surrounding air.

She parted her lips slightly and said in a chilling tone, "My father's legs are in this state now, and it's probably inextricably linked to you all! Your parents have already admitted it themselves, so what do you have to say?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Jianlin's face instantly turned deathly pale, devoid of any color.

His eyes began to dart around, and he avoided meeting Xia Wan's gaze, clearly harboring something to hide.

After hesitating for a moment, he forced himself to remain calm and retorted, "Stop talking nonsense! What does this have to do with me? Don't make up lies and wrong an innocent person!"

However, his slightly trembling voice had already betrayed his inner fear and unease.

Xia Wan, being exceptionally intelligent and perceptive, naturally wouldn't miss this subtle change in his expression. She became increasingly certain that this seemingly ordinary Xia Jianlin must be hiding some unknown secret.

But, with Xia Jianlin's abilities, could he really do that? Thinking of this, Xia Wan couldn't help but turn to look at her father.
