Mu Sanni didnât expect her husband to be so decisive: "Oh Xu Dafeng, have you been looking to stray for a long time?"
Xu Dafeng didnât want to argue here, so he spoke to his son earnestly: "Qiangzi, your mom is confused, but you canât follow her nonsense. If you really provoke the Han Family, forget others, Han Chaohui alone can beat you half to death. You better weigh this carefully."
He felt compelled to give his son a heads-up, because his wife was too unpredictable. He worried that one day sheâd cause trouble, and then how could he show his face in this street again.

Meanwhile, Xinyan was unaware that the Xu Family was causing a commotion because of her.
She had just helped her third brother clean up the sister-in-lawâs room again, and had taken the bedding out, all laid under the sun, waiting to bring it back inside after lunch.
So when the sister-in-law and niece returned, theyâd have a comfortable place to stay.
The two returned to the front yard, and Han Chaohui approached Xinyan: "Yanyan, I want to have a cup of honey water."
Xinyan rolled her eyes at him: "Third Brother, didnât you just have a cup?"
Han Chaohui whispered: "That honey is truly amazing, I didnât expect to like it so much all of a sudden."
Xinyan saw his nostalgic look: "That honey was put here by Uncle, if you want to drink it, go find him."
Han Chaohui looked at her pleadingly: "Later Iâll say you want to drink it, please donât reveal me."
After speaking, he took out six large bills and three ration tickets, handing them over: "Buy some fabric and make a coat for yourself."
Xinyan looked at the money and tickets in his hand: "Third Brother, isnât this considered a bribe?"
Han Chaohui said exasperatedly: "These fabric tickets were saved by Third Brother for you all along, youâre really ungrateful."
Xinyan initially didnât want to accept them, but Han Chaohui directly placed them in her hand: "Third Brother got a raise, so just take it."
As the siblings were talking, they heard a car engine stop outside, Xinyan knew it must be Dad arriving.
She hurriedly thanked her third brother and quickly went towards the main gate.
Seeing Han Jingchen enter the yard, she called: "Dad."
Han Jingchen looked his daughter over several times: "Youâre not hurt, are you?"
Xinyan shook her head: "Iâm fine, didnât I tell you over the phone? How can I lie to you?"
Han Jingchenâs eyes were full of relief: "Itâs good youâre okay, itâs good youâre okay, itâs Dadâs oversight."
He hadnât expected those people to be so impatient, always believed his daughter was skillful, plus Xinyan didnât like being followed, so he had withdrawn her bodyguards to respect her wishes.
Receiving the news today really made him regret deeply.
Clearly, several families were brewing a storm, yet he was so careless. Luckily, his daughter wasnât harmed. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At that moment, Han Chaohui approached to greet: "Second Uncle, whereâs my second aunt?"
Han Jingchen nodded at his nephew: "Iâll pick her up this afternoon."
Han Chaohui thought about second auntâs current situation and agreed that second uncle planned well.
Han Jingheng heard the commotion in the yard and came out: "Jingchen, how come you had time to come over at this hour?"
Han Jingchen handed the car keys to Han Chaohui: "You drive my car, pick up your mom and sister-in-law, and your niece too, so they donât need to request a car from there again."
He intended to send Han Chaohui away, afraid this kid would let something slip someday which would be problematic.
Han Chaohui happily took the keys, no longer thinking about the honey water: "I guarantee to complete the task."
Once he left, Han Jingchen shut the gate.
Even if Han Jingheng was slow to notice, he sensed something was off: "Jingchen, whatâs happened?"
Han Jingchen gestured him inside: "Letâs talk in the study."
Once the three were in the study, Han Jingchen recounted the incident where Xinyan was attacked.
Han Jingheng was truly impressed with his niece, she managed to stay calm about such a big issue, and despite the time passing, showed no signs.
