After going downstairs, Chen Xi was ready to take a taxi home, but Lin Xuan insisted on giving them a ride.
Chen Xi couldn't persuade her, so he had to get in the car with the little fellow.
Along the way, Lin Xuan wanted to say something several times but stopped. Seeing her anxious look, Chen Xi asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"I'm sorry … I didn't know things would turn out like this. If I had known, I wouldn't have asked Lulu to come."
"It's okay. Didn't she apologize to you? It's just a coincidence. No one expected us to meet Zhao Yuan here. "
Lin Xuan was silent for a moment, then asked with some worry, "Zhao Yuan, he … will be okay?"
She also saw Zhao Yuan's situation at that time, otherwise she wouldn't have been so scared that she immediately asked Chen Xi to leave.
As soon as her voice fell, Lin Xuan suddenly seemed to think of something and quickly explained to Chen Xi, "I'm not worried about him. I'm afraid that if something really happens to him, you'll be in a lot of trouble …"
More than trouble.
Article 234 of the Criminal Law clearly stated:
Intentionally injuring the body of another person shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance.
If causing serious injury, the sentence shall be imprisonment of not less than three years and not more than ten years;
If causing death or serious injury by particularly cruel means and causing serious disability, the sentence shall be imprisonment of not less than ten years, life imprisonment or death.
Lin Xuan could only pray silently that nothing would happen to Zhao Yuan.
If it was only a minor injury, she could come forward to plead for Chen Xi and strive to reach a private agreement with Zhao Yuan to settle this matter privately.
But just now she saw Zhao Yuan vomiting blood with her own eyes. She estimated that it was not as simple as a minor injury …
Chen Xi didn't have any power or influence, and she had a child with her.
If he really went to jail because of this, what would happen to the child?
"Chen Xi, why don't I take you to the station now and you take Niannian back to your hometown to avoid the limelight? Zhao Yuan's background is not small. I don't think he'll let it go so easily … "
The more Lin Xuan thought about it, the more scared he became. Thus, he voiced his opinion worriedly.
"It's fine, don't worry. Since I've already made my move, it means that I've already made my next move. Relax."
Chen Xi comforted her with a smile, and then hugged the little girl in his arms tighter.
Lin Xuan thought that Zhao Yuan was only lightly injured, but Chen Xi was very clear about the power of his kick.
With this stomp landing, Zhao Yuan was most likely already done for.
Chen Xi hugged Niannian and turned to look out the window.
The little girl's sleeping face was reflected in the car window, looking very cute.
Outside the window, the neon lights flickered. Chen Xi's gaze was like a knife. That sharp gaze was like the cold winter moon, vowing to cut through the dark night sky.
Zhao Yuan would never have thought that because of his cheap mouth, he would actually open a Pandora's Box.
…
Lin Xuan drove Chen Xi back to the Kangju Community.
After Chen Xi got out of the car, she rolled down the window and said worriedly, "If anything happens, be sure to call me immediately. I still know some people in Zhonghai who should be able to help."
"Don't worry, it's fine."
Chen Xi smiled and waved at her, then turned and walked into the community.
After Chen Xi left, Lin Xuan picked up her phone and sent a text message to Wang Lu, asking her about Zhao Yuan's current situation.
If it wasn't very serious, she still wanted to help Chen Xi settle this matter.
Even if she had to pay a certain price, she would not hesitate.
After sending the text message, Lin Xuan started the car and was ready to leave.
But at this time, she suddenly saw that Chen Xi was still at the entrance of the community.
It was already ten o 'clock at night, and the plaza dancers at the entrance of the community had already dispersed. The surroundings were very quiet, and she could vaguely hear the sound of the TV coming from the building.
Under the illumination of the light at the entrance of the community, Chen Xi's shadow was elongated.
And in front of him stood a woman.
Lin Xuan took a closer look and found that it was a very beautiful woman.
The woman was talking to Chen Xi, and she seemed to be a little excited.
Lin Xuan looked at the woman and felt that she was familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.
Perhaps out of curiosity, Lin Xuan stopped the car, then opened the door and sneaked over, wanting to hear what they were talking about.
Right at this moment, a scene that caused Lin Xuan to be extremely shocked happened.
…
Chen Xi carried Niannian to the entrance of the community.
At this time, a woman appeared.
She had been waiting here for a long time. The moment she saw Chen Xi appear, she immediately stood up from the chair excitedly, then quickly walked in front of Chen Xi and reached out to stop him.
Hearing the familiar "tap tap" sound, Chen Xi didn't even need to look to know who it was.
Ning Qiutong seemed to always have that arrogant look on her face.
A graceful and luxurious black dress, sharp high-heeled shoes, exquisite makeup, and expensive accessories …
Even in a first-tier international city like Zhonghai, she was still the queen who stood proudly above the clouds.
Although she had waited for three hours in front of the entrance of the community, just to see Chen Xi. But the moment she saw Chen Xi, Ning Qiutong still raised her chin proudly as usual.
"Mr. Chen, I want to talk to you."
Perhaps because Ning Zhongguo wasn't here, Ning Qiutong finally showed her other side without reservation.
This side of her wouldn't act coquettishly, cry, or lower her head.
Therefore, she was here to negotiate with Chen Xi.
This woman was about 1.68 meters tall, and with a pair of 10cm high heels, her height was vaguely close to Chen Xi's.
Chen Xi looked at her and said, "Sorry, I'm not in a good mood today, I don't want to talk."
After that, Chen Xi walked directly into the community.
"Wait."
Ning Qiutong reached out and stopped Chen Xi. She said anxiously, "Didn't you want 100,000 yuan? I'll give you ten times, one million, how about that? "
Hearing this, Chen Xi coldly glanced at her and said impatiently, "Ten million is out of the question."
In fact, from the moment Chen Xi made the move, the shackles in his mind called the concept of law had completely collapsed.
Money?
He could have as much as he wanted.
If the incident with Zhao Yuan hadn't happened, Chen Xi might have considered saving Ning Zhongguo again for the sake of money.
But now …
It was too late.
After that, Chen Xi directly knocked away Ning Qiutong's hand and continued to walk forward.
Ning Qiutong was stunned for a moment. When she came back to her senses, Chen Xi was almost at the gate of the community.
She quickly ran in front of Chen Xi and blocked his way. Then she said emotionally, "Mr. Chen, I sincerely apologize for my previous behavior. Please forgive my rudeness. I'm sorry!"
After that, Ning Qiutong bowed to Chen Xi.
Chen Xi stopped.
He glanced at Ning Qiutong and said calmly, "You can go. From the moment I stepped out of your house, I already decided not to do anything again. I've already given you the medicine. Take it and it will temporarily suppress your father's illness. You will have enough time to find another way. "
After saying this, Chen Xi paused and then emphasized seriously, "I've always been a man of my word, so don't bother me anymore. Do you understand?"
After that, Chen Xi walked forward again.
Ning Qiutong stood there in a daze.
Then, something that shocked Lin Xuan happened.
Ning Qiutong suddenly ran in front of Chen Xi. Then, under Chen Xi's cold gaze, she bent her legs and knelt heavily on the ground.
When her knees touched the ground, there was even a soft "bang" sound.
This woman was as arrogant as a swan. Maybe she wanted to make up for her mistakes, or maybe she didn't want to see her father in pain again.
Therefore, at this moment, she chose to apologize in the most sincere way to ask for Chen Xi's forgiveness.
She was the one who chased Chen Xi out of the house. Now, it was naturally her turn to invite Chen Xi back.
"Mr. Chen, is the person in your arms your daughter? Since you're also a father, I think you should be able to understand the deep feelings between a father and a daughter. So … I hope you can understand my feelings as a daughter. I beg you, please save my father. "
After that, she lowered her head until her forehead gently touched the ground.
