"Really not. I said, I couldn't stand Lawyer Li's methods, so I came forward to testify." Li Jiang smiled.
"Also, you hired a group of people to look for Brother Xiao, and one of them smashed Brother Xiao's car."
Li Jiang said: "This man is willing to come out and testify. After all, his son is taking the college entrance examination. If he is imprisoned for damaging other people's property at this time."
"Then there's a possibility of sentencing, which would put his son's civil service exam in jeopardy."
Li Hao's face became even more distorted.
I was careless. I originally thought that Xiao Chen was just a high school student and would be easy to deal with, but I didn't expect that he would be so difficult?
"Okay, okay, Xiao Chen, you can do it. You can do it." Li Hao gave Xiao Chen a thumbs up: "I'll wait for you."
"Then hurry back and get ready." Xiao Chen said with a smile, "You've fought so many lawsuits, this time you're fighting for yourself."
"It's actually quite interesting to be your own lawyer. I'm looking forward to your performance."
After saying this, Xiao Chen waved to him, then turned and left.
Only Li Hao was left standing there, gritting his teeth in anger.
When they returned home, Grandma Wu and Xiao Yan were chatting and laughing while washing vegetables.
It seemed as if nothing had happened and everything was just like before.
Xiao Chen walked up to Grandma Wu, his nose feeling a little sour: "Grandma."
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Xiao Chen's eyes were a little red, Grandma Wu put down the things in her hands and held Xiao Chen in her arms with heartache.
"Do you feel a little sorry for me?"
"He is your son after all." Xiao Chen sighed: "So I..."
"You are my only child," Grandma Wu said distressedly, "your grandfather left early."
"After I raised him alone, he left me."
"Over the years, thanks to you, my life, which originally had no color, has gained meaning."
"So, it's you who helped me, not me who helped you. Besides, he did something wrong and should have been punished."
Xiao Chen really didn't know what to say. He couldn't imagine how someone with such positive values like Grandma Wu could have a son like Xiao Yuanhe.
"Okay, don't feel bad. It's only right for grandma to help you."
"Grandma, I will treat you well in the future." Xiao Chen said.
"I didn't want to tell you these things because I didn't want to embarrass you, but..."
"What kind of person do you think grandma is?" Grandma Wu smiled, her eyes full of love as she looked at Xiao Chen.
"In grandma's eyes, you are the most important because you are the only one who has been with me all these years."
"Seeing you grow up, seeing you succeed in your studies and career, I'm so happy for you."
"Grandma, thank you..." Xiao Chen's nose felt sore, and he hugged Grandma Wu, tears falling.
"No matter whether I find my biological parents or not, you will always be my grandma, and we will never be separated."
"Okay, we'll never be apart." Grandma Wu's eyes were moist.
After dinner, Xiao Yan finished her housework and said to Xiao Chen, "Xiao Chen, I have an appointment with a client this afternoon, so I won't be here tonight."
"Okay." Xiao Chen nodded, and he took the initiative to see Xiao Yan out.
When she opened the car door and was about to get in, Xiao Chen said, "Thank you."
Xiao Yan paused for a moment before opening the door. She looked up at Xiao Chen, her eyes full of smiles. "Did I hear correctly?"
"You heard it right, thank you." Xiao Chen repeated.
"No need to thank me, this... is what I should do." Xiao Yan murmured.
"You have drawn a clear line between you and the Xiao family so thoroughly. Did you... know something?" Xiao Chen asked.
Yes, Xiao Yan's changes are indeed quite big.
She seemed to know something. Could it be that she also saw the truth of her previous life?
"No." Xiao Yan's expression was complicated, but she still denied Xiao Chen's words.
"I just feel like I owe you too much." Xiao Yan murmured.
"These things have nothing to do with you." Xiao Chen smiled: "The ones who are wrong are Xiao Yuanhe and his wife, not you."
"But I am their daughter, and I am the only one who can repay what they owe you." Xiao Yan shook her head.
"So I'm already very happy that you can forgive me."
"But, can you still call me sister in the future?" Xiao Yan raised her eyes, her face full of anticipation.
I still remember that when Xiao Chen first came to the Xiao family, he treated her as a sister, or even an elder.
He always listened to her words and never took it to heart even though she was sometimes too much.
Over time, she took Xiao Chen's obedience for granted.
However, so many things that happened afterwards made her wake up.
In this world, no one is born to owe anyone anything.
The reason why Xiao Chen listened to her was because he respected her. Only now did she realize how hard it was to come by this.
Now she only hopes that Xiao Chen can accept her again as before.
"Sister." Xiao Chen was silent for a moment, but finally called out.
In the previous life, Xiao Yan might have been the only person who was kind to him.
Apart from the woman in black, she was the only one who came to his funeral.
She cried very sadly and desperately, maybe she had already regretted it at that time.
And in this life, she is also the first person to wake up.
After rebirth, many things have changed.
But Xiao Chen didn't know if he could change his destiny.
If everyone's fate is still death, then he will risk his own life to save Xiao Yan.
These two simple words made Xiao Yan very excited.
She opened her arms and hugged Xiao Chen tightly, tears falling uncontrollably.
She murmured, "Xiao Chen, no matter what happens in the future, we will face it together."
"Okay." Xiao Chen nodded heavily.
After seeing her off, Xiao Chen received a call from Song Ziyan: "Xiao Chen, I'm done with the college entrance exam."
"How did you perform?" Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
"Not bad, I'll just leave it to fate from now on." Song Ziyan looked resigned to her fate, and then she said, "I want you to take me out to play and relax."
"What to play?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Secret room." Song Ziyan uttered two words.
"I saw the most interesting secret room in Jiangcheng online. It's three-minute, scary, and exciting. I want you to take me there."
"This dungeon is too difficult." Xiao Chen was embarrassed: "I haven't played it before, I'm afraid I can't help you."
"Besides, you tremble with fear even when watching a horror movie. How dare you go into a secret room like this that's all about horror?"
"Let me try once, otherwise I won't give up." Song Ziyan laughed.
"Okay then, I'll pick you up." Xiao Chen agreed reluctantly.
"Mom and Dad, I'm going out." Song Ziyan hung up the phone and went back to her room to change clothes.
"Is it Xiao Chen again?" Song's father asked somewhat displeasedly.
