Chapter 502 - 153: Rebellion (Part 3)

Xing Miao was right; it was Mr. Min who hired them, not these young masters.

Being willfully blind can actually work out well.

"Young master, they’re just trying to take the madam away. We have no right to restrict personal freedom."

"You... you’re bodyguards hired by the Min Family." Eldest Young Master Min pointed at them angrily, cursing.

The bodyguards remained still; they were highly professional and adhered to industry standards.

The bodyguard captain explained, "Since it doesn’t concern the employer’s personal safety, we can’t act hastily. Please understand."

The madam is part of the Min Family, as are the young master and miss.

The disputes between the madam and her children are family affairs; they should not make the first move.

Hu Ping looked at these bodyguards a few more times, wondering where they came from. Their professionalism was top-notch.

Liu Xun held a differing opinion. It was the first time he saw such unique bodyguards, completely different from those in movies.

In films and TV dramas, bodyguards always protect the employer first.

But when it comes to the Min Family, it’s like they’ve taken some fool’s pill.

The bodyguards stood tall and proud; after all, they’re just working according to industry norms, which makes sense.

Primarily, they were newly hired by the Min Family and hadn’t gone through a settling-in period. They hadn’t received their pay yet, so their passive work attitude was forgivable, right?

With no other choice, the second young master of the Min Family could only step forward and block Xing Mi, while the young misses of the Min Family went for the luggage.

"Since you’re leaving, go without taking any of the family’s belongings."

Xing Mi held tight, not wanting them to take anything away.

"Mom, if there’s nothing important inside, just let them have it."

"There is — the clothes I made for you are inside," Xing Mi stubbornly refused to let go.

The quality of the suitcase wasn’t great; after a brief struggle, the lock broke, and its contents scattered across the floor.

Inside were just a few change of clothes, identity documents, and two leather-bound notebooks.

Wu Qingqing and Feng Wansha were very alert and jointly rushed to grab the documents.

The Min Family intended to withhold the documents to prevent Xing Mi from leaving but were a step too late.

Xing Mi’s eyes were fixed on the clothes on the ground — a striking military-style black coat, meant as a gift to her daughter.

It had been stepped on twice, leaving Xing Mi deeply saddened. "Boohoo, you’re all bullying me."

Xing Miao: "..."

She squatted down, carefully folding Xing Mi’s clothes, "Don’t cry anymore. Later, we’ll take you to meet Caicai. Aren’t you fond of her? She doesn’t like people who cry."

Xing Mi indeed liked Su Xiaocai; she had never told Xing Miao why.

Su Xiaocai was the person Xing Mi always aspired to be — strong, smart, and heroic.

Moreover, she’s Xing Mi’s daughter’s classmate, very close, not someone distant.

She knew she didn’t have the ability or disposition for that.

But it didn’t stop her from admiring such a person.

Xing Mi wiped her tears after learning she would meet Su Xiaocai, "Let’s head to the police station first. I want to divorce that Min guy."

The gentle beauty was assisted up, with tear stains still on her cheeks and eyes resembling clear, washed ponds.

Heaven favored her; time hadn’t left marks on her face, showing her natural beauty.

After crying, Xing Mi looked like she was wearing a pink veil, resembling a goddess descending and evoking compassion.

Feng Wansha handed her tissues, while Li Leilei took out another suitcase to help pack, putting the clothes and notebooks inside.

Ji Heng and Hu Ping shielded them from the others.

The children of the Min Family forced the bodyguards to act, "If you don’t act, we won’t pay you."

The bodyguards glanced at their captain, "Alright, let’s act."

So the bodyguard captain demonstrated, engaging with Ji Heng and the others very halfheartedly.

It looked intense, yet was actually just child’s play, but the Min Family thought they might actually be able to hold Ji Heng and the others.

The butler despondently closed his eyes, preferring not to see.

A bunch of actors who only wanted their paycheck performed better than those from the drama troupe.

...

With Xing Miao and the others accompanying, Xing Mi managed to pack up and walk out of the Min Family gates.

And under the startled stares of the Min Family, sped towards the police station.

The family members cooperated actively, catching Porlin somewhat by surprise, yet he calmly took Xing Mi’s statement.

Being near Su Xiaocai, anything bizarre might happen, so mere active family cooperation is no extraordinary occurrence.

In the end, Porlin was made to eat his words.

Xing Mi wasn’t adept at lying; she answered whatever was asked.

She had a habit of writing diaries.

No matter whom she married, she wrote diaries, sometimes detailing when Min Qing returned in the dead of night, or where he went for engagements.

Porlin assumed Xing Mi was simply cooperating with the investigation, incidentally requesting a divorce from Min Qing.

Who knew she came to deliver crucial evidence.

Min Qing’s life seemed to have thoroughly implemented the doctrine of the All-Knowing Sect — evil deeds get their retribution.
