Chapter 1016: Chapter 101
“No worries,” Huo Shiqian said calmly, “Ou Jun will help us cover.”
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi chid in, “Speaking of which, the matter with Fang Caiqin had one advantage: it made my big brother co to realize and stand on our side.”
She sighed a bit.
“Let’s not talk about that,” Huo Shiqian said at this mont, “I ca to tell you that Xia Lan has been captured by my people.”
“Captured?” Xia Chuyi was very surprised.
While surprised, she also knew that Huo Shiqian must have had Xia Lan captured because she had done sothing.
“Tell , what did she do?” Xia Chuyi asked, frowning.
Huo Shiqian did not beat around the bush and said directly, “Do you know Xia Zhu—Xia Lan’s biological sister was with her?”
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi nodded and said, “I know, I heard a little about it when I was in Ling County.”
“Xia Lan, it seems, wanted to take Xia Zhu out to ‘enjoy life’?” Xia Chuyi said, “At that ti, I was suspicious about this, but I really couldn’t figure out Xia Lan’s motive for bringing Xia Zhu out.”
Moreover, since Xia Lan had not taken Xia Zhu with her in her actions, Xia Chuyi was even more puzzled about her intentions with Xia Zhu.
Just then, Huo Shiqian said, “Xia Lianlian’s identity was exposed, and Xia Lan could no longer extort money, so in desperation, she gave Xia Zhu to soone else.”
“Gave away?” Xia Chuyi was initially unclear about Huo Shiqian’s aning, “Xia Zhu is only thirteen or fourteen years old, give her to whom…”
Halfway through speaking, Xia Chuyi suddenly understood Huo Shiqian’s aning.
“Are you saying Xia Lan sold Xia Zhu?” Xia Chuyi exclaid in shock, eyes wide open.
However, Huo Shiqian shook his head and said, “Not sold, just given.”
“Huh?” Originally thinking she had guessed the truth, Xia Chuyi was suddenly puzzled, frowned, and asked Huo Shiqian, “What do you an?”
Huo Shiqian took her to sit on a bench in the campus and said, “Don’t get agitated about this matter, I’ll explain it to you slowly.”
Hearing Huo Shiqian say this, Xia Chuyi assud that this “giving” was sohow even more disgusting and troubling than selling.
Then, she heard Huo Shiqian say slowly, “In desperation, my people found out that Xia Lan had latched onto soone—a person from the Guo family in G town.”
“After connecting with this person, Xia Lan found an opportunity and gave Xia Zhu to them.”
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi frowned even deeper, but she did not interrupt and continued listening attentively to Huo Shiqian.
Huo Shiqian continued, “Of course, after Xia Lan gave Xia Zhu away, my people intercepted Xia Zhu midway.”
“Seeing my people, Xia Lan got scared and imdiately prepared to escape,” Huo Shiqian said, hinting at sothing deeper.
Xia Chuyi’s eyes flickered slightly.
She understood Huo Shiqian’s aning.
The fact that Xia Lan was so afraid of his people indicated that she might have seen or known that they were Huo Shiqian’s people before.
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi suddenly rembered one incident where Xia Lan was also very panicked when she saw Huang Xiaoyun in “Youwei.”
Thus, it was possible that Xia Lan had actually confronted Huo Shiqian’s people before.
Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but look at Huo Shiqian.
Did Huo Shiqian have past dealings with Xia Lan?
Xia Chuyi really could not comprehend this.
The parties involved who retained their mories couldn’t understand it, so Huo Shiqian definitely wouldn’t.
