Chapter 35: She Gave Me the Care and Love You Couldn't.
Qiao Xu was taken aback: "What do you mean?"
"Ah Si, what do you mean? My father didn't die because of a failed surgery..."
Xu Si'an put his arm around her and led her back to the car: "Don't think too much. I'll investigate. If it's her, I won't let her get away with it, okay?"
"So, it's not because of my father's health?"
Qiao Xu's heart was in turmoil.
"It's not certain yet."
Xu Si'an leaned against the car door, smoking, and looked at the couple who were deeply in love, then gave a mocking smile.
Qiao Xu knew he was waiting for someone, so she opened her phone and glanced at the trending topics.
[Shen Zhiwei, the eldest daughter of the Shen family, suffered two miscarriages six years ago.]
[It has been confirmed that the eldest daughter of the Shen family underwent corrective surgery two months before her wedding.]
The Shen family...
The Shen family...
[Shen Zhiwei, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xu family, was once the fiancée of Xu Si'an, the second son of the Xu family.]
Qiao Xu now understood why he had hit someone.
Xu Si'an hated having his name associated with Shen Zhiwei the most.
Police cars and ambulances arrived at the airport parking lot one after the other, along with lawyer Song Jiahe.
"Mr. Xu."
Xu Si'an stubbed out his cigarette: "Send Qiao Xu to Yue Mao's residence."
He turned around, bent down and kissed her: "Cherry hasn't seen you in so long. Play with it, be good after your bath, and wait for me to come back in bed, okay?"
Qiao Xu raised her hand and slapped his lips: "What kind of time is this to say such things?"
Xu Si'an pinched her cheek: "When? Don't worry, your man isn't someone they can just mess with as they please."
"I rely on my own abilities, not on sponging off my parents. Honey, I'll bring you a strawberry cake when I get back."
Xu Si'an got into the car with the lawyer and left, while Xu Shiran and Shen Zhiwei got into the ambulance.
After getting on the bus, Song Jia took out his computer and started working on it.
Qiao Xu sat in the passenger seat staring at the screen and soon saw the surveillance footage from earlier.
"Little Song, you're that amazing?"
Song Jia copied the surveillance footage, which showed that Xu Shiran had started the attack.
Xu Si'an's retaliation contained elements of legitimate self-defense.
"That's nothing, Mr. Xu is the real expert."
"Sister Xu, can I ask you a question?"
"What?"
Song Jia started the car and left the airport.
"So, were you Mr. Xu's ex-girlfriend?"
Qiao Xu gave a soft "hmm".
"No wonder you seemed so familiar when I first met you."
Qiao Xu asked curiously, "Have you seen me before?"
Song Jia smiled and said, "I've seen your photo. In the house where President Xu used to live abroad, there was a framed photo on the bedside table."
After Song Jia escorted Qiao Xu to the Yue Mao Mansion, he went to the police station.
Since it was already past nine o'clock at night, Qiao Xu decided to open the door herself.
She hesitated for a moment in front of the combination lock before entering the password.
Just once, the door opened.
Qiao Xu stood there, stunned.
Aunt Wang, who heard the commotion inside, came out, followed by Cherry.
"Miss Qiao, why are you alone? Where is Mr. Xu?"
Qiao Xu picked up the dog: "He has something to do, so I came to see Cherry."
"Aunt Wang, do you know the key code to unlock the front door?"
Aunt Wang exclaimed, "Oh, you'll have to ask Mr. Xu. He gave me the access card, but he didn't tell me the password."
Qiao Xu walked to the door and stepped out.
"Aunt Wang, could you please pour me a glass of warm water?"
After Aunt Wang entered the house, Qiao Xu closed the door.
She pressed the keypad, entered [742698], and the door opened.
Her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
His password was her name.
After Qiao Xu finished drinking the water, she told Aunt Wang to go and rest. She went upstairs and opened her bedroom door.
The photo frame that Song Jia mentioned is now on his bedside table.
The photos inside were taken in front of the carousel during their first visit to the amusement park.
The man wore purple rabbit ears on his head, while Qiao Xu wore fox ears.
Both of them had smiles on their faces, and the man's eyes were full of happiness and doting affection.
Qiao Xu sent Xu Si'an a message.
What's your door password?
He didn't reply.
Qiao Xu went to his walk-in closet, took a white shirt from his wardrobe, and went into the bathroom.
At the police station, Xu Si'an's mother arrived after receiving the message.
Without saying a word, he slapped Xu Si'an across the face.
Song Jia pushed Xu's mother away: "President Xu, are you alright?"
"Xu Si'an, you bastard, he's your own brother."
Xu Si'an pressed the tip of his tongue against the corner of his lips and sneered, "So, you didn't see him hit me?"
"It's your fault that your brother hit you."
"I'm asking you, did you do what happened to Shen Zhiwei?"
Xu Si'an sat lazily in the chair: "Does it matter whether it is or not? Don't you already believe that I did it?"
Xu's mother pointed at him: "Did you already know that before?"
"I knew it! That's why you just wouldn't marry Shen Zhiwei."
Xu Si'an laughed and said, "Do you think Xu Shiran doesn't know?"
“Your good son knows everything, all of it.”
Xu Si'an's phone rang. He took it out, glanced at it, smiled, and replied with two words: "Qiao Xu".
"I don't care, you need to get someone to remove the trending topic right away, and then post another one saying that Shen Zhiwei went for that surgery because she had sex with you."
"Snap!"
The glass of water on the table was smashed at Xu's mother's feet.
If this weren't a police station, Xu Si'an would have flipped the table.
The onlookers were shocked. Was this really her biological mother?
Xu Si'an stood up, his eyes reddening: "I used to think that you felt sorry for Xu Shiran because he wasn't my father's biological son, and that you were afraid my father would treat him badly, so you were especially biased towards him."
"So that's not it after all."
"You don't love my dad or me, except for me."
He said self-deprecatingly, "After my father died, I lived on my own."
"Four years ago, you said whoever married Shen Zhiwei would inherit the company. Fine, I voluntarily gave up my inheritance rights and shares, but you still forced my girlfriend to break up with me."
“I’ve been abroad for four years, and you haven’t asked about me at all, not even made a phone call. You’ve treated me like I’m dead.”
"So now, what right do you have to order me around?"
Seeing that Xu Si'an's mood was not right, Song Jia quickly sent a message to Qiao Xu.
After taking a shower, Qiao Xu changed her clothes and drove off.
Xu's mother's chest heaved with anger: "It was your own choice to go abroad, it was your insistence on being with that woman."
"What's so great about her? All she's after is your money."
"I'm doing this for your own good. You're the second young master of the Xu family, and there are plenty of socialites in Luocheng who would be willing to marry you."
Xu Si'an yelled at her, "But that's not her. All I want is Qiao Xu."
"She gave me the care and love that you couldn't give me."
"She takes care of me when I'm sick, she comforts me when I'm unhappy, and she consoles me when I argue with you at home."
"Everything revolves around her, so what do you have to compare with her?"
"Don't even mention that she's after my money; even if she wanted the entire Xu family, I would still give it to her."
Xu's mother slammed her hand on the table: "I think you've really gone mad."
"Officer, I want to sue him for harming my son."
