Xia Wan looked at her coldly and said, “You can keep an eye on us, but you must stay in the courtyard. We will clean up the things in our house. If you follow us into the house, you will be responsible for anything we are missing.”
Xia Ye’s lips twitched. “Xia Wan, you’re only good at talking now. What good stuff do you think your house has worth me stealing? My family is way better off than yours.”
When Chen Lian heard this, she immediately covered Xia Ye’s mouth. She smiled embarrassedly and said to Xia Wan, “Xiaye’s mouth is really cheap. Look at what she’s saying. Our family doesn’t have that much money, and we don’t have a good life. We’re barely making ends meet.”
Xia Wan just sneered and didn’t say anything.
After Xia Wan and Xia Feng entered the house, Chen Lian warned Xia Ye. “What nonsense were you talking about? Don’t you know that Xia Hai’s medical expenses haven’t been paid? Now you’re telling Xia Wan that our family is rich. Aren’t you trying to say that we are deliberately neglecting Xia Hai? Are you stupid?”
After Chen Lian’s warning, Xia Ye realized that she had been too happy and had almost forgotten about Xia Hai.
However, she thought of something and said to Chen Lian in an aggrieved manner, “But Mom, we’ve already split up. So what if Xia Wan knows that we’re rich? We’ll just ignore them and not lend them money.”
Chen Lian felt that she must’ve given birth to a dumb daughter. She was so angry that she poked Xia Ye’s forehead and scolded, “Our family also needs a reputation. If word gets out that we don’t lend money to Xia Hai, what will people say about us? They’ll definitely think that we’re heartless and don’t care about the lives of our brothers. Would there be anyone who’ll be willing to marry into our family?”
Xia Ye touched her forehead, feeling wronged. Then, she nodded and said, “I know, Mom. Be gentler.”
In the house, Xia Wan laughed coldly. They actually didn’t have many things to take. The water bottle and the rest were already old, and she didn’t plan to use them anymore. Considering that she had new clothes, all she took were some mementos.
Hence, she heard the entire conversation between Chen Lian and Xia Ye.
So it turned out that Chen Lian knew that their own actions would be disgraceful, but they still did it nonetheless.
What a heartless bunch of relatives.
Xia Feng saw Xia Wan’s disappointment and couldn’t help but say, “Sister, we don’t need such relatives. Brother and I will take care of you.”
Xia Wan rubbed his head and said lovingly, “I don’t care.”
When Xia Wan and Xia Feng came out, Li Jin and the others watched them from the side. They let them leave after ensuring they didn’t take too many things.
The next day, Li Yan had to go to work. Zhou Tian was afraid they would do something to the breakfast, so he brought it to Zhou Xiaorou directly. Luo Xin did not have the chance to do anything.
After personally witnessing Zhou Xiaorou finish her breakfast, Zhou Tian hurriedly went to find Xia Wan, who had come out to set up her stall.
Seeing that Zhou Tian had returned so quickly, Xia Wan understood that he must have run into some emergency. He wouldn’t usually come so often. Xia
Wan handed the stall to Xia Feng and Xia Chen while she went to speak to Zhou
Tian.
“Mr. Zhou, what happened?” Xia Wan asked.
Zhou Tian hurriedly told Xia Wan about what happened yesterday. At the same time, he handed the evidence in his hand to Xia Wan. “This is the evidence that they plotted to harm Xiaorou. Wanwan, I don’t know much about these things. Is this evidence enough to get them convicted?”
After Xia Wan heard what Zhou Tian said, her expression became serious. “Mr.
Zhou, if it’s as you said, they should be making a move soon. How about this? We’re going to look at the houses today, and I’m guessing they’ll make their move in the afternoon. So, Mr. Zhou, you can go over at noon. We’ll wait for you at the door.
“After they drug Sis Xiaorou, we’ll catch them on the spot. That way, they’ll be caught red-handed and have no reason to deny it.”
Zhou Tian nodded after listening to Xia Wan. He agreed with her. If they had evidence, they wouldn’t be able to deny it.

Xia Wan’s stall didn’t have as many customers as before. After peddling clothes for the past few days, Xia Chen and Xia Feng learned how to interact with customers. So, after hearing what Xia Wan said, they decided to leave the stall to Xia Feng while Xia Chen went with her to help Zhou Tian..
