Quan Zhen was so angered by Su Zhe's words that she stood up and rushed towards Su Zhe, ready to hit him.
She felt that Su Zhe was a complete ingrate. No matter why she hadn't abandoned him back then, she had been supporting Su Zhe until a few years ago, but in the end, Su Zhe actually said this.
But just as his hand was about to reach for Su Zhe's face, Su Zhe grabbed Quan Zhen's hand and chuckled softly.
Ye Qing was utterly astonished by Quan Zhen's appearance and looked at Xi Quan in disbelief.
Xi Quan chuckled lightly and asked coolly, "You can stand up now? You must have had a tough time these past few years, pretending to be a cripple all this time."
Ye Qing was so dumbfounded that he couldn't close his mouth. Looking at Su Zhe and Xi Quan's expressions, they didn't seem surprised at all!
Quan Zhen was stunned when she heard Xi Quan's voice behind her, and belatedly realized what was going on.
Quan Zhen pulled her hand away from Su Zhe's and slowly lowered it. She wanted to turn around and sit back in the wheelchair, but then she felt like she was trying to hide something.
But walking straight out like that didn't seem quite right. Just as she was struggling with this decision, Su Zhe sneered and turned around to look behind her: "Come on."
Hearing the voice, Ye Qing was quite surprised, thinking it was someone. But before she could see it, Quan Zhen was about to run back, and even rushed towards Quan Zhen. Xi Quan quickly stretched out his leg and tripped Quan Zhen, who was already a little unsteady on his feet, and fell down.
The police officers who came in then pinned Quan Zhen down and took her away.
Su Zhe's words today had already surprised Ye Qing greatly. It wasn't until she saw Quan Zhen being arrested by the police that Ye Qing's reaction time returned to normal. The police must have been brought by Su Zhe.
Just a few days ago, Su Zhe came to see Ye Qing, hoping that Ye Qing would not join Su Mei in putting Quan Zhen to death and would let Quan Zhen go. What exactly did Su Zhe go through these past few days that caused such a big change in him?
However, no one could answer Ye Qing's questions for the time being, because Xi Quan and Su Zhe had left with the police, who needed to find out more about the situation.
Although no one could answer her questions, Ye Qing felt much more at ease because Quan Zhen had finally been arrested. Since the police had come to arrest Quan Zhen, it proved that they had some evidence against him.
This is always a good thing. Thinking back to the harm Xi Quan suffered because of Quan Zhen in previous years, Ye Qing truly felt gratified.
Quan Zhen processed these things downstairs by herself, and then prepared to go upstairs to see the two children, only to find that Aunt Zhang was standing at the corner of the stairs.
Judging from her expression, she still seemed a little distracted.
Ye Qing frowned involuntarily. Before she could speak, Aunt Zhang asked, "Wasn't that your mother-in-law just now?"
It's about the mother-in-law again. To be honest, although Ye Qing didn't like this topic, she was very curious as to why Aunt Zhang was so fixated on her mother-in-law.
After a moment of silence, Ye Qing did not answer Zhang Sao's question directly, but instead asked, "You were also from Xiaoyao Village before, haven't you met Xi Quan's mother? His mother was also an educated youth from Xiaoyao Village before."
Hearing Ye Qing's question, Aunt Zhang's eyes flickered: "When I arrived at Xiaoyao Village, Xi Quan's mother had already returned to the city. Although she went back to Xiaoyao Village to see Xi Quan more than once, by some twist of fate, I never met his mother. Moreover, his mother never stayed in Xiaoyao Village for long each time she went there."
Ye Qing blinked, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with Zhang Sao's words. In fact, there were some things that Ye Qing didn't remember very well. Just like Zhang Sao said, when Ye Qing was old enough to remember things, Xi Quan's biological mother had already returned to the city. Every time she came to Xiaoyao Village to see Xi Quan, it was always a fleeting visit. Later, when they met in Nancheng, Ye Qing only figured out who Quan was based on what Xi Yue had said at the time. She didn't recognize him at first glance.
After Zhang's husband and parents-in-law passed away, Zhang left Xiaoyao Village, so it's normal that she didn't recognize them.
Ye Qing asked with a puzzlement, "Aunt Zhang, you seem to care a lot about Xi Quan's mother, but from what you've said, you two weren't familiar with each other before?"
Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, Aunt Zhang seemed to flee in panic: "I'll go cook."
Standing on the stairs, watching Zhang Sao's hurried, almost running, demeanor, I felt even more strongly that Zhang Sao was hiding something from me.
The thought that Aunt Zhang also came from Xiaoyao Village made Ye Qing's eyelids twitch. Could it be that Aunt Zhang also had some bad intentions?
But then Ye Qing thought about it and wondered if he was worrying unnecessarily. After all, not everyone in Xiaoyao Village was a bad person. Besides, when they were in Xiaoyao Village, Aunt Zhang had been very kind to Ye Qing.
Thinking about it, it seemed that she was indeed worrying unnecessarily. Ye Qing shook her head, wondering if she was overthinking things because of her pregnancy.
Thinking back to when I was pregnant with Ye Yiran and Ye Yixin, I was abroad, studying and working hard to make a living. I was so busy every day that I didn't have time to think about anything else.
Since it was Su Zhe and Su Mei who called the police, Xi Quan told them what he knew and then returned.
Although it didn't take too long, when Xi Quan returned, the two children were already asleep, and Ye Qing also told Zhang Sao to go and rest.
Ye Qing reheated the food for Xi Quan. After they finished eating, back in the room, Ye Qing asked the question she had been asking earlier: why had Su Zhe changed so much?
"My grandfather and I were the first to know that Quanzhen's leg had actually healed."
My grandfather didn't say anything because she was, after all, his biological daughter. He felt that as long as Quan Zhen stopped causing trouble, it wouldn't matter if she pretended to be lame, and it might even make me feel sorry for her. As for me, I wanted to see what Quan Zhen was up to, so I didn't expose her.
Su Zhe had no idea because Su Mei had returned. Su Zhe went to find Su Mei, hoping to persuade her to let Quan Zhen go.
Although Su Mei and Su Zhe hadn't interacted much before, they shared the same father. Angry that Su Zhe neglected his own father, Su Mei told him everything Quan Zhen had done. When Su Zhe went to confront Quan Zhen, he saw that Quan Zhen could actually walk again, and... he must have been traumatized.
Xi Quan slowly recounted the whole story to Ye Qing.
Come to think of it, Su Zhe wasn't a bad person to begin with. After all, Quan Zhen was still his mother. At first, it was understandable that he wanted people to let his mother go. But after he learned the whole story, he couldn't accept it himself, so naturally he had to react.
Quan Zhen has been arrested by the police, so there's no need to worry too much. Although Ye Qing also comforted herself that Aunt Zhang should be fine, she still thought about it and told Xi Quan about some of the unusual things she had seen about Aunt Zhang.
Xi Quan was naturally a little surprised, but thinking back to when Zhang Sao came to their house, he had been observing her and hadn't noticed anything wrong with her.
