Chapter 465: Where Did Li Jin Go?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia He issued a stern warning to Xia Yu and extended her hand, eagerly awaiting the anticipated exchange.
Li Jin had expressed her desire to visit Xia Ru’s place that day, ostensibly driven by her disdain for the modest means of Xia He’s household. The frugality of their meals, she contended, paled in comparison to the sumptuous fare available at Xia Rut s residence.
Although Xia Ru had maintained minimal contact with her family after Li Jin and the others had visited her home to partake in her hospitality, she remained their granddaughter, and Xia He refrained from imposing undue hardship upon Li Jin.
Li Jin had been absent for several days, leaving the imagination to run wild with visions of her living the high life alongside Xia Ru.
This time, Xia Yu might return home with some money in tow!
Upon seeing Xia He’s outstretched hand, Xia Yu let out a sigh and slumped into a chair. ‘We haven’t even seen her. Where do you expect the money to come from?”
Clearly skeptical, Xia He picked up a stick and appeared ready to unleash a blow upon Xia Yu.
Swiftly, Chen Lian intervened. “Enough of this! We’ll sort it out later!”
She directed her attention toward Xia Yu. “Speak civilly to your father. Hand over whatever your grandmother provided you with!”
“Why on earth would your grandmother not want to see you?” Xia He retorted, her disbelief apparent. “Who are you trying to deceive?”
“She doted on you the most since you were a child!” Xia He continued, her rod raised in frustration.
Undaunted, Xia Yu protested, “I’m telling you, I didn’t see anyone!”
“I haven’t even laid eyes on Xia Ru, let alone Grandma!”
Before Xia Yu could continue, she received a blow to her head. “Stop your cursing! ”
“Ouch! Don’t hit me! Let me explain!” Xia Yu shielded her head and evaded the attack. “I went to Xia Ruts house, but no one was there, so I returned.”
“And I have no idea where Grandma has gone.”
“I only heard from the neighbors that a few days ago, Grandma seemed to have gone to Xia Ru’s house, causing a ruckus, and then she was turned away.”
“They don’t know where she was sent.”
“But a few days later, a particular document vanished.”
“Afterward, Xia Ru disappeared as well.”
An aggrieved Xia Yu concluded his explanation, turning her gaze toward Xia
He. “I didn’t even finish my sentence before you started hitting me!”
Chen Lian paid no heed to Xia Yu’s complaints, instead looking to Xia He. “Was
Third Uncle’s visit several days ago related to this?”
“Could it be…” Xia He was left in a state of astonishment.
Just days earlier, Xia Hai and his wife had paid a visit.
Fearing they might be seeking bail money, Xia He had feigned illness and tasked Chen Lian with shooing them away. Reflecting on the situation now, it was clear that Xia Hai and his wife were likely privy to crucial information.
“Should we pay a visit to Third Uncle’s residence and inquire?” Chen Lian speculated with a scheming glint in her eyes. “If Third Uncle knows the whereabouts of Mom, the money she has might…”
Though she left the sentence unfinished, the implications were apparent.
Xia He swiftly grasped her meaning. “Are you suggesting that Mom gave all her money to Third Brother?”
“That simply won’t do!” Xia He exclaimed, springing up from his seat and making his way to the exit.
Chen Lian seized his coat and called after him, “Calm down and dress first before you head out!”
Exiting in tandem, they spotted Xia Ye hesitating at the door.
“Why are you back?” Xia He, upon seeing Xia Ye, bemoaned the apparent lack of utility in his daughter.
Xia He was far from impressed, viewing Xia Ye as lagging behind not only in the lifestyle department but also when compared to Xia Wan of the third son’s family.
Confronted with Xia He’s displeasure, Xia Ye chose to withhold her knowledge. If her parents wanted to visit Xia Hai’s home, they were free to do so.
After all, Grandma was nowhere to be found!
While Xia Ye remained uncertain of Li Jin’s whereabouts, she was acutely aware of Xia Wan’s recent accomplishments in solving a major case and earning recognition at school.
She had heard that Xia Wan had resolved the case to secure her family’s well-being, and Xia Hai’s family was safe and sound. The only exception seemed to be Xia Yu.
It was evident that Xia Wan’s actions were connected to Xia Jiang’s family or, perhaps, even Li Jin.
Given that Xia Ru was elusive at the clothing store and that the document had inexplicably vanished, there was a strong likelihood that Xia Ru had hidden Li
Jin.
Moreover, Xia Ru’s actions were closely linked to the ongoing case.
Upon spotting Xia Ye and sensing her reticence, Xia He shoved her aside indignantly. “Move! Don’t block the way!”
Xia He hastened to depart, with Chen Lian urging Xia Ye not to wander and following closely behind..
