Chapter 107 Welfare Night!

Chapter 107: 107 Welfare Night!

The police officers across from them twitched their mouths, busy understanding the complex relationships among them.

Xia Xing was also stunned for a moment, not because their introduction was strange, but...

That fan’s name is Gu Mingzhi?

This name sounds so familiar...

The hooligans seized the opportunity, "Officer, she is the sister of a celebrity, a celebrity’s sister committing battery should be considered a more serious crime!"

Little did they know, their words actually reminded the policewoman.

Xia Ye’s surname is Xia...

Then her brother...

Must be Xia Shen, no doubt about it!

Oh my, I’m so excited!

But she’s a policewoman, she must not show it!

The policewoman coughed once and looked sternly at the two hooligans, "Is that the law according to your family?"

Later, Gu Mingzhi narrated what had happened.

Of course, she mainly talked about how the little hooligans harassed her, including repeating verbatim what they had said to her.

As for Xia Ye’s part, she summarized it in four words.

"Self-defense."

The case was clear with no doubts, and within half an hour, the policewoman stood up to send the two victims out.

Standing up, the policewoman grabbed a lollipop from the table and gave it to Xia Ye with a concerned tone, "Little sister, were you scared today?"

Xia Ye reached out to take the candy, unwrapped it, popped it in her mouth, and politely thanked her, then because she was speaking with the candy in her mouth, her speech was muffled and soft, "Yes, I really was scared."

The policewoman gently said, "Don’t be afraid, if you encounter such a situation again, remember to call the police."

Xia Ye nodded again, "My teacher said that maintaining social stability is every citizen’s duty."

Policewoman: What a sensible little sister!

Xia Xing: My sister is so sensible!

Gu Mingzhi: Xia Shen’s little sister is really sensible!

The two hooligans were furious, "You bastards, just because you got away today doesn’t mean you always will, you wait and see—"

Xia Xing swept a look at them, and the two hooligans, who a second ago were full of bravado, instantly fell silent.

It was past midnight outside the police station.

Everything had gone smoothly, and there was no need to use the phone number Pang Shen had sent, but Xia Xing thought it best to save it, just in case it would be needed later.

But when he copied the number into his contacts, he realized...

This is President Jiang’s number!

Xia Xing felt a touch of relief as he patted Xia Ye’s head, recalling how President Jiang had embraced his sister on the rooftop that day.

Fortunately, it was resolved, or else it would have given them another chance to meet.

It was late, not easy to find a taxi, and especially after what had just happened.

Xia Xing looked at the three girls including his sister, "I’ll take you guys home."

All three girls agreed.

But, for the sake of letting his sister get to bed earlier, he still selfishly took a detour to drop Xia Ye off first.

However, the other two girls clearly didn’t mind spending a little more time in their idol’s car.

Xia Ye was the first to get out, she brought her index and middle fingers together, tapped her forehead, and threw a very casual gesture towards the car.

Gu Mingzhi felt a thrilling rush of admiration—so cool!

Zhou Yao said with a particularly proud tone, raising her eyebrows at her, "We are in the same class."

Gu Mingzhi was dying of envy, lamenting how old she felt.

Watching these lively teenagers, she suddenly realized she was already 23.

Time flies so fast.

Turns out, she had liked him for so many years...

Mingzhi’s gaze slowly returned to the driver’s seat, her heart throbbing in a way she couldn’t quite describe.

Today was truly a night of privileges from "Midsummer Night’s Dream"!

Next, Xia Xing, based on the distance, first dropped Zhou Yao at her home and finally Mingzhi.

Mingzhi had started working, moved out of her home, and lived in an apartment in the city center.

The environment was quite nice, very suitable for a girl living alone.

Both the housing prices and rent there were not cheap, simply because the transportation was very convenient.

But now Mingzhi somewhat disliked the convenience of the transportation because Xia Xing’s car quickly arrived below her apartment building.

The two of them had only fifteen minutes alone in the car.

Mingzhi politely thanked him, got off, and had walked a distance when she suddenly remembered she left something in the car.

She called out to Xia Xing from quite a distance, "Sorry, I left my light stick in your car."

Xia Xing was about to drive away, heard her, and glanced back.

Feeling it would be too troublesome for her to come back to fetch it, he said, "Never mind, I’ll keep it."

Mingzhi’s steps faltered as she ran back, her tone slightly uncontrollably excited, "You want to keep it?"

She had made it by hand.

Xia Xing chuckled softly, put on his sunglasses, started the car, and while steering, he said, "Wasn’t it made for me originally?"

The car turned a corner, leaving Mingzhi behind it.

The girl smiled, her eyes curving into bright crescents.

The night wind lifted her long hair, and shining in her eyes was a clarity Xia Xing had never seen before.

All this, he saw from his rearview mirror.

For some reason, an image of a chubby, rather cute little figure suddenly appeared in his mind.

He remembered.

No wonder he felt familiar when he first heard her call herself Mingzhi.

The daughter of Aunt Gu, a chubby little piglet, used to play at his house often when she was a child.

He remembered, that little piglet was called Mingzhi. (Foreshadowed in Chapter seventy-eight)

Xia Xing shook his head, it must be a homonym or a coincidence.

The little piglet has grown up, she must be even plumper, right?

Definitely not the same person.

**

Yourong didn’t go to school on her first day off, staying with Qiao Yufen in the old house all day.

Although Qiao Yufen was quite good to her, it was nothing compared to how she was treated at the Xia family villa.

Especially in the afternoon, when a friend of Qiao Yufen’s came over, Qiao Yufen specifically asked Yourong to stay in her room, close the door, and not come out, fearing others would know she wasn’t attending school on a school day and stir up idle gossip.

Yourong complied, going back to her room and closing the door, but she felt extremely humiliated.

In the past, her grandmother, whenever there were guests, would always rush to push her to the forefront, encourage every guest to look at her, viewing her as her greatest pride.

But now, she had to hide away, as if afraid that being seen would bring shame...

Yourong felt that her current state was all Xia Ye’s fault!

She couldn’t let herself stay in the old house forever, being here wouldn’t help her stand out.

Yet she was still an unfinished high school student and didn’t have a say in her own matters.

Yourong was extremely agitated, it was already past midnight, but she tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

Just then, her phone suddenly received a text message.

It was from a number that hadn’t contacted her for a long time.

The person was abroad, where it was daytime.

The message was abrupt and brief.

’Xiaorong, Mom is coming back to the country, do you miss Mom?’
