The group returned to the police station, where Xu Yatong and Shen Jingyan cooperated with the police to give their statements.

Zhou Zhengqing and all his thugs were captured.

Because Zhou Zhengqing was involved in kidnapping, extortion, imprisonment, and abuse, the circumstances of his crimes are extremely serious, and he cannot be released on bail.

This time, he will definitely be sentenced, and the sentence will not be short.

It wasn't until 3 a.m. that the Xu family returned home from the police station.

Xu Yatong and Shen Jingyan were held in Qiao Suxin's arms.

Xu Yatong and Qiao Suxin were both in tears, while Chen Jingyan, who had experienced many storms, remained calm.

After calming down, Xu Yatong gave Shen Jingyan a big hug.

Chen Jingyan was caught off guard.

"Jingya, thank you. If it weren't for you..."

She choked up and couldn't speak.

Shen Jingyan patted her on the back with a smile and said, "No need to thank me, we're sisters."

Xu Yatong nodded emphatically: "Yes! We are sisters, blood sisters!"

She felt ashamed of her past pettiness, and the past few years of integrating into the extended family have been the happiest time of her life.

Only then did she truly understand the unconditional and generous love her family had for her.

Why did she resist integrating into this warm family before?

Xu Honglin looked at Shen Jingyan and Xu Yatong with satisfaction.

The sisters reconciled and got along well, which made him, as their father, the happiest.

Old Xu and Yuanyuan were still fast asleep. Afraid of waking the old man and the little girl, everyone didn't talk much after returning. They said goodnight to each other and went upstairs to sleep.

Chen Jingyan and Gu Zhiyun, thinking of Rui Rui, returned home under the early morning moonlight.

Rui Rui has already started sleeping in a separate room from the couple. Shen Jingyan quietly peeked through the crack in the door at the little guy and was relieved to see that he was sleeping soundly.

After taking a shower, Shen Jingyan, exhausted, crawled into bed.

Soon after, Gu Zhiyun finished washing up and went to bed.

Just as Shen Jingyan was about to turn off the light, Gu Zhiyun grabbed her wrist.

"Brother Yun, I'm so tired, let's go to sleep..."

She spoke in a calm yet coquettish tone.

She thought Gu Zhiyun wanted to exercise.

But she simply didn't have the energy to cooperate.

Gu Zhiyun simply pulled her into his arms and gently stroked the marks on her wrists.

The marks weren't actually deep, just faint traces, but because Shen Jingyan had fair skin, they looked quite noticeable.

"Do you have any other injuries?" Gu Zhiyun asked with concern.

"No, with that good-for-nothing Zhou Zhengqing, how could he possibly catch me?"

Shen Jingyan yawned lazily, but saw that Gu Zhiyun's eyes were full of guilt and worry.

After a whole night of tossing and turning, and having expended so much energy, he wasn't sleepy at all.

His heart and eyes were filled with thoughts of his wounded wife.

Shen Jingyan herself didn't take it seriously, but Gu Zhiyun cared about it very much.

Shen Jingyan cupped his handsome face in her hands and said earnestly, "Brother Yun, I never lie to you. There really is no injury. You can check for yourself if you don't believe me."

"Okay." Gu Zhiyun said, and then lifted her nightgown.

Chen Jingyan: "..."

Why did she have to say her last words?

Gu Zhiyun examined every inch of her skin very carefully.

He was relieved only after confirming that his wife only had faint marks on her wrists.

“Jingya, I swear, this is the last time I'll agree to let you take risks. If this happens again, even if you have a gun pointed at my head, I will not agree to let you take the risk.”

Gu Zhiyun held Shen Jingyan in his arms, his voice full of guilt and heartache.

She nuzzled his chest with her chin in a seemingly ingratiating manner.

"Brother Yun, there won't be a next time. How many scumbags like Zhou Zhengqing do we encounter in our lifetime?"

Gu Zhiyun was still filled with guilt that he couldn't shake off. It was all because he was so useless that his wife had to suffer.

Who would call so early?

"Hello?"

On the other end of the phone was Fei Fei's voice.

She and Yang Zinuo stayed at her parents' house yesterday and didn't go back.

"Hey? Brother-in-law! Something terrible has happened! Zhou Lianjie and Qin Yuehe came to our house early this morning and caused trouble! Grandpa was woken up and, after learning what happened yesterday, he was so angry he almost fainted!"

Gu Zhiyun immediately sobered up.

He quickly offered a few words of comfort over the phone before hurriedly shaking Shen Jingyan awake.

"Jingya, get up quickly! The Zhou family is causing trouble!"

Chen Jingyan was still dazed a second ago, but after hearing these words, he instantly sobered up.

The couple quickly got up and washed up.

Fortunately, it was Saturday, and Duan Meishan from across the street didn't have to work. Shen Jingyan took Rui Rui to their apartment so he could play with Tian Tian.

Rui Rui was reluctant and insisted on going to her maternal grandfather's house together.

However, neither Shen Jingyan nor Gu Zhiyun wanted Rui Rui to see those chaotic scenes.

After some reassurance, Rui Rui obediently went to play with Tian Tian.

The two rushed to the Xu family's house.

Before I even entered the house, I could hear a commotion inside, along with Yuanyuan's crying.
