Chapter 14 is gone.
In fact, Xia Baijiao is still some distance away from Xia Fanxing.
So before she could pounce on Xia Fanxing, Xia Fanxing had already nimbly dodged.
When the onlookers saw Xia Baijiao acting crazy, they quickly scattered, avoiding her as if she were a plague, for fear of accidentally getting infected by her.
When Xia Yu heard what Xia Baijiao was saying, his expression immediately changed drastically!
Ignoring the fact that he had just been scratched and bled by Xia Baijiao, he rushed over, grabbed her, and covered her mouth tightly with his palm, preventing her from uttering another word.
Xia Yu faced the crowd and forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, saying, "Everyone, please disperse. This is a private matter for our family. Please, everyone, give us the last bit of face."
Although the masses usually dislike the Xia family as capitalists, the fact that the Xia family was robbed today, with all their property taken and their daughter going insane, is indeed very tragic and shameful. It's possible that they might not be able to go on living because of this.
People just wanted to gossip and have some fun; they didn't mean to push someone to the brink.
So after Xia Yu finished speaking, people gathered in small groups and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute," Xia Fanxing spoke up at this moment, "Mom and Dad, did you call the police when our house was burgled? Did any of the neighbors call the police?"
The onlookers looked at each other, wondering what she meant.
The Xia family is a well-known capitalist family throughout Haicheng. In the current environment, the theft of a capitalist's property is something that ordinary people are happy to see and applaud.
Reporting to the police may indeed lead to the recovery of family assets, but once the police know how much wealth a family has, they will inevitably be targeted and ultimately face confiscation.
In short, once a capitalist is robbed, no matter what they do afterward, they are completely finished, and reporting it to the police is meaningless.
Xia's parents instantly felt guilty and broke out in a cold sweat.
They knew better than anyone that their family fortune hadn't been stolen, but rather that they had emptied it out and moved it elsewhere themselves.
They're just putting on a show to play the victim and make everyone think they're broke.
Should we call the police?
If the police come and find out the truth, they'll be completely finished!
Xia Fanxing understood: "Since no one has reported it to the police, I will report it now."
There's a phone booth just around the corner; it's quick and convenient.
Mr. Xia's face was ashen. He strode over, grabbed Xia Fanxing's wrist, and scolded her in a low voice, "What business is it of yours? You think you can make phone calls? Go home and stop embarrassing yourself here!"
Xia Fanxing let her father's nails dig deep into her skin, and did not show any disrespect to her elders in public.
But she is even less likely to comply.
She took out a White Rabbit milk candy and smiled as she beckoned to the child who was standing nearby: "If you help Auntie report this to the police, this is for you."
The child nodded eagerly, snatched the candy, and ran off in a flash.
Calling the police is free anyway.
"You wretched daughter!" Xia's father stomped his feet in frustration, wishing he could slap Xia Fanxing to death.
"Dad, you watch over my sister, I'll go after her!" Xia Yu realized the seriousness of the situation, pushed Xia Baijiao towards her father, and ran out as well.
However, Xia's father was old and didn't have the quick reaction time to hold Xia Baijiao down in time.
Xia Baijiao seized the opportunity and charged fiercely at Xia Fanxing while cursing.
Xia Fanxing remained calm, simply taking a step to the side.
The next second, Xia Baijiao crashed hard into Xia Fanxing's father, who was standing next to her.
Xia's father clutched his bleeding nose and cried out. Xia Baijiao had a large bump on her forehead and was feeling dizzy and unsteady on her feet.
Xia Fanxing kindly tried to help her up, but she was pushed away fiercely.
During the struggle, Xia Fanxing "accidentally" pulled open her collar.
Even in just a few seconds, it was enough for people to see the dense marks on her neck.
The onlookers gasped in surprise and began to discuss the matter.
Xia Baijiao was so provoked by this reaction that she completely lost her mind, and she cursed and exploded like a madwoman: "I was watching the grilled fish that hadn't been drugged the whole time, so why am I the one who got poisoned in the end? That was the drug I prepared for you. You should be the one who got ruined by them, you bitch! But why me?!"
Xia's parents were struck dumb!
Hearing these words, they finally understood why Xia Yu had been so determined to control Xia Baijiao.
The theft of her family property was a lie; the real truth was that Xia Baijiao was humiliated.
What shocking scandal is this?
Xia Baijiao continued to attack, and her parents hurriedly rushed forward to restrain her.
But it was too late.
Everyone heard about Xia Baijiao's scheme and knew that her attempt to harm others backfired, and she suffered the consequences of her own actions.
The expressions on everyone's faces seemed to say: She deserved it!
Mr. and Mrs. Xia were so embarrassed that they wished they could disappear into the ground.
Just as they were about to take Xia Baijiao home, the little boy returned, leading two policemen in a triumphant manner.
Xia Yu walked beside the police officer, smiling broadly and talking non-stop, seemingly trying his best to explain that everything was fine here and asking the police officer to go back.
However, the police remained unmoved and began to investigate the situation in an official manner.
They happened to be patrolling nearby, so they arrived quickly. Upon hearing that such a serious incident as the theft at the Xia family's residence had occurred, they immediately contacted more police officers for assistance, making quite a scene.
The Xia family's doorstep was brightly lit all night, with many professionals coming and going.
Xia's parents were on tenterhooks, going out from time to time to bring them food and drink and gather intelligence, fearing that they might unravel something and eventually track down a new treasure location.
Xia Baijiao was too disruptive, so she was knocked unconscious, tied to the bed, and stuffed with a rag.
Xia Yu learned the truth from her parents, and coupled with the absurd events of yesterday, she deeply regretted ever associating with Chang Xiang.
Xia Yu finally understood that Chang Xiang was a demon who had crawled out of hell, and getting involved with him meant certain death.
The person who got involved with Chang Xiang was Xia Fanxing!
Xia Yu felt as much regret as he did resent Xia Fanxing.
If murder weren't illegal, he would have already torn Xia Fanxing to pieces and fed her to the dogs.
Moreover, if it weren't for Xia Fanxing, no one would have bothered to report it to the police.
Xia Yu was so angry that he punched the wall until it bled.
Xia Fanxing is a menace. When they board the ship, he will torture her and make her wish she were dead!
The police worked through the night but still couldn't find out where the thief had gone, and finally finished their work the next morning.
Mr. and Mrs. Xia, who had stayed up all night with her, almost cried with joy.
Just when they thought they could go back to their room and get some sleep, a strange man arrived, looking travel-worn.
Even though he was still far from Xia's parents, upon seeing their faces, he seemed to confirm something and immediately shouted at the top of his lungs, "Officer, I'm reporting! Their money wasn't stolen by thieves; they transferred it themselves!"
