After leaving the Jing family home, Xiang Hengxi went to the hospital to see Luo Xikui and Xu Ziyu.
As I walked to the ward door, I saw the police officers coming out after taking statements, and Captain Xue from the SWAT team was also there.
After exchanging a few words, he went inside.
Luo Xikui was probably too frightened; she still looked somewhat listless.
“I’ve already called my parents to tell them about this, and they will contact Uncle Xin’s relatives abroad,” Xu Ziyu said to Xiang Hengxi.
Xiang Hengxi placed his hand on Luo Xikui's shoulder and gave it a reassuring squeeze. He looked at Xu Ziyu and said, "I have already contacted Uncle Xiao. He said he will come back to handle Xin Chun's matter."
The Uncle Xiao he mentioned is Su Yan's cousin, Xiao Yi, who is also Xin Chun's maternal uncle. He used to be his father's psychologist and friend. He has been living in another province for many years and occasionally comes to visit Xin Chun.
"Hmm, what were the preliminary autopsy results from the police?" Xu Ziyu found it hard to believe that Xin Chun would kill Xin Zikai. Even though Xin Chun had been somewhat wicked since childhood, her relationship with Xin Zikai was still quite good.
Xin Zikai is busy and sometimes neglects his daughter, but he has done his best to treat her well. As an adoptive father, he has fulfilled his responsibilities to his adopted daughter.
“I just spoke with them for a bit. Xin Chun hasn’t said a word since last night. The forensic autopsy results say the time of death was the night before. Before Xin Chun died, she suffered a head injury, and her hands and feet were tied behind her back. The police found a large suitcase in her house, and forensic examination showed that a person was inside. There were also signs of disturbance in the soil in the backyard.” Xiang Hengxi said with a somewhat solemn expression, “The preliminary conclusion is that she was buried alive and suffocated.”
Luo Xikui gasped in shock. The gentle and witty Uncle Xin had died so tragically. How could Xin Chun be so cruel? How could she do such a thing?
Xu Ziyu frowned. The night before last was the day Xin Chun got drunk, and he was the one who took Xin Chun home.
Who would have thought such a tragedy would happen? He shouldn't have gone to pick up Xin Chun and take her back that day; it only led to Xin Shu's death.
"Alright, you two, stop thinking about it. Getting well is the most important thing. You'll be a bride and groom soon, and you can't be pushing a wheelchair down the aisle." Xiang Hengxi patted Xu Ziyu on the shoulder.
Xu Ziyu's hand, hanging on the quilt, tightened slightly. The doctor's advice echoed in his mind, and his lips involuntarily pursed.
Xiang Hengxi didn't pay much attention to his expression. After comforting her sister for a few moments, she left the ward.
Before long, the Xu and Chen families had all gathered in the ward.
In the afternoon, after receiving the doctor's permission, they each took their children home from the hospital.
Back home, Xiang Zhilan stayed by Luo Xikui's side, talking to her to distract her from her shock.
Meanwhile, at the Xu family's side, Xu Tingchuan escorted Xu Ziyu into his room. The father and son chatted for a few words, and then Xu Tingchuan left with a solemn expression.
Just then, Ni Sitian brought up the freshly cooked porridge. Seeing Xu Tingchuan's expression, she couldn't help but ask worriedly, "What's wrong?"
Xu Tingchuan shook his head and told Ni Sitian to take the food in first.
Ni Sitian went in first, placed the tray on the bedside table, and couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Yu, did Xiao Chun really kill your Uncle Xin?"
This news was really hard for her to accept.
Although she felt it wasn't a good idea when Su Yan handed Xin Chun over to Su Yan and Su Yan decided to adopt her.
Over the years, I've developed some feelings for Xin Chun. It's hard to believe that she harbors the same crazy tendencies as her parents, and that she actually murdered her adoptive father.
