Chapter 210

After listening to this, Mr. Xia was filled with regret and self-blame.

If he could turn back time, he would rather give up spending a lot of time and energy in the company and accompany his beloved wife wholeheartedly.

However, things are unpredictable. He never imagined that one day, his huge wealth would attract the covetousness and calculations of others, which would eventually lead to his wife's premature death.

Looking back, he and his wife had discussed it well: after Xia Lin finished his studies, if Xia Lin was interested in business, he would be allowed to manage the company.

If Xia Lin has no interest in this, the worst that can happen is that he can find a reliable agent to help manage it. No matter what, he must ensure that his son will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

After everything was arranged, he planned to take his wife to travel around the world to enjoy a leisurely life. Unfortunately, this beautiful wish was ultimately unfulfilled.

It was all his fault that he was careless for a moment and invited a wolf into the house, Zhou Min and Xia Jiye, two ungrateful and ungrateful wolves.

It was because of the collusion between the two of them and the secret plot that caused his wife to die at a young age.

Thinking about it now, Mr. Xia feels that he will never be able to atone for this sin in his lifetime, and can only spend the rest of his life in regret.

After a moment of silence, Old Man Xia raised his head, stared at Xia Lin in front of him, and slowly asked, "Has your mother told you about the incident in which Zhou Min and Xia Jiye jointly pushed your mother off the balcony?"

Xia Lin nodded slightly to show his agreement, and responded: "Yes, she did, and she also told us to be careful of Zhou Min and her son. Isn't this obvious!"

"But I didn't expect that you would choose to cover up for them and say it was an accident. Later, when I wanted to investigate and find surveillance footage, I was stopped because you didn't allow me to." Xia Lin looked at him and said.

"You clearly had the chance to explain to me at the beginning, why didn't you say it? Instead, you made me resent you." Xia Lin didn't understand.

Old Master Xia sighed, "Because at that time, I couldn't let Zhou Min and her son in. At that time, they were still protected by someone, and it wouldn't be difficult for them to get out if they went in."

"Even if it's not difficult to get out, they have plenty of ways to get people to take care of them, and some ways to get out. That's not what I want to see. Moreover, they dared to threaten me with you, killed my wife, and even dared to attack you. How can I tolerate this?"

"At that time, the most clear-cut approach was to make you resent me and leave here. At that time, I was not strong enough to fight against them." This is also the reason why the Xia family has grown so big today.

One reason was to be able to fight against those families, and the other was to compensate Xia Lin. This was the only compensation he could give to Xia Lin and his children.

"Lin'er, I have already lost your mother. I can't let anything happen to you, the one she cares about the most. Otherwise, how can I have the face to see your mother?" Master Xia sighed.

"Ruoan looks a lot like your mother, and even likes planting in the same way." This is the thing that makes Grandpa Xia most happy.

Xia Lin naturally knew this, as Xia Lin looked more like his mother.

"Old man, you still have us now. Give me a chance to fulfill my filial duty. Don't think too much. Let the past be the past. As for Zhou Min and her son, they will soon pay the price they deserve." Xia Lin hugged him and said.

"No, I won't be so depressed. I still want to visit many places. After the baby is born, I plan to join a tour group to go out and see." Grandpa Xia looked at him and said.

"Okay, I'll arrange someone for you then, otherwise I won't feel at ease." Xia Lin was relieved to hear him say that, as long as he wouldn't commit suicide.

Uncle Qiao was right. The old man was sadder than anyone else when his mother passed away.

The mother never resented him at the beginning, and the old man only took the mother and child back to repay him for saving his life.

Maybe he should let it go.

"Next month is my mother's death anniversary. I plan to take Yanyan and the children there to pay tribute to her." Xia Lin calmed down and looked at his father and said.

"Ruoan shouldn't go this time. Let's wait until the baby is born and then talk about it next year." Grandpa Xia shook his head and said.

If Ann is pregnant with triplets, she should be even more careful.

"Okay." Xia Lin nodded.

It is not advisable to go to the cemetery if you are pregnant.

Lin Cai was not one to procrastinate. He took the evidence he had obtained from Mr. Xia and went to find a lawyer.

"This time I will make sure they will never get out. And this is the evidence that they bribed the servants in the house to poison me." Lin Cai handed the evidence in his hand to Leng Zeming, who was a distant cousin of Leng Zexi's generation.

"I can make them pay with their lives. Is it really enough to just send them to jail? These evidences can cost them their lives." Leng Zeming looked at Lin Cai and said.

Their family is relatively close to Leng Zexi's family, otherwise Leng Zexi would not have introduced him to Lin Cai.

"Death is too easy for them. I want them to live in regret for the rest of their lives." Lin Cai looked at him and said.

Leng Zeming was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

"Okay, I got it. I'll get it done for you in two days." Leng Zeming had prepared everything. Before, he just checked for evidence, and now all he had to do was report the case.

"Thank you for your help." Lin Cai thanked him.

"Don't say that. It's what we should do. Besides, we are all family." Leng Zeming nodded.

It was just as Leng Zeming said. Within two days, Zhou Min and Xia Jiye were arrested the next day, along with the people who helped them. As for those who had already died, their cases were dug out, making it impossible for their descendants to hold their heads up.

There is also the issue of tax surcharges.

After Xia Jiye was arrested, Lin Qi went to the Xia family to plead for mercy, but no one paid attention. Later, she heard that Xia Lin was at the Ou family, so she went to look for him.

Even though Lin Qi doesn't care about Xia Jiye, she can't ignore her son. Now, because of Xia Jiye's incident, her son is said to be the son of a murderer at school and he doesn't even dare to go to school.

"Xia Lin, please let Xia Jiye go because I was your fiancée. It was my mother-in-law who did this. It has nothing to do with Xia Jiye." Lin Qi pleaded.

"Are you still holding a grudge against me for choosing Xia Jiye instead of you? In fact, I was also helpless at that time!"

"I couldn't find you at all at the beginning, and my family was forcing me to do something, so I had no choice but to get together with Xia Jiye."

"As long as you can be so kind as to let Xia Jiye go, I'm willing to do anything you ask me to do." Lin Qi's eyes were blurred with tears as she cried tenderly. Her pitiful appearance made people feel pity for her.

However, Xia Lin just twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and revealed a sneer: "Lin Qi, you are really good at acting! You actually want to fool me with these words, do you really think I am a three-year-old child?"

"And I've told you clearly a long time ago that I look down on you. It was like this in the past and it's even more so now!" He mocked Lin Qi mercilessly, his eyes full of contempt.

"Besides, do you think you can hide from me that your Lin family doesn't care about you? It's because you are with Xia Jiye that they don't care about you."

"Stop pretending to be innocent and pitiful here and deceiving others like fools!" Xia Lin's voice became colder and colder, as if it could freeze the air around him.

Then, he continued in a cold tone: "The crime committed by Xia Jiye is true. He and his vicious mother teamed up to kill my mother. This blood debt must be repaid with their lives!"

"Asking me to forgive him and let him go? That's just wishful thinking! I have done my best by not implicating you."

"If you dare to come here again and say some ambiguous words, causing my wife to misunderstand, don't blame me for being ruthless. I will not show mercy to you! If you don't believe me, you can try my methods!" At the end, Xia Lin's eyes flashed with a trace of impatience and ruthlessness.

He absolutely did not want his wife to have any unnecessary misunderstandings because of Lin Qi.

So, Xia Lin put on a stern face and drove her away unceremoniously: "Get out of here right now! If my wife sees you and causes any misunderstanding, I can't bear to let her be sad and angry about it!"

After saying that, he glared at Lin Qi fiercely.

However, Lin Qi never expected that Xia Lin would be so heartless and not care at all about their deep friendship over the years.

She widened her eyes and asked in disbelief: "Xia Lin, we grew up together as childhood sweethearts! Can't you just spare us for the sake of our past friendship?"

"As long as you can make Xia Jiye show up, I will immediately go through the divorce procedures with him!" There was a hint of pleading in Lin Qi's voice.

Faced with Lin Qi's desperate pleas, Xia Lin was not moved at all. He responded with disgust on his face: "Get lost! If you want a divorce, go to the prison to find Xia Jiye, don't bother me!"

"Besides, don't talk nonsense about childhood sweethearts! You and I have never been in that kind of relationship, and I only have my wife in my heart. I have no feelings for you at all!"

"Even for this so-called marriage, I never agreed at all!" After saying that, Xia Lin turned his head away and no longer looked at Lin Qi.

Hearing Xia Lin's ruthless words, Lin Qi was furious. She shouted hysterically: "Xia Lin, how am I inferior to your yellow-faced woman from a remote county town? Why do you humiliate me again and again?"

At this moment, Lin Qi had completely lost his mind, and his face was terribly distorted.

After hearing this, Xia Lin's face instantly turned very ugly and he hit back: "How dare you say that my wife is a yellow-faced woman? That's nonsense!"

"My wife is much prettier than you. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also well-mannered and well-educated. You are so rude and disrespectful, a real shrew!"

After saying these words, Xia Lin turned around angrily and slammed the door shut.
