Xiao Qian returned home, and Jia Xiufang was still waiting for her. Chen Zilong, the playboy, had already gone to bed earlier; his carefree snoring could be heard even through the door.

“Qian’er, how did it go?” asked Jia Xiufang.

“I came back to get something, and I have to go out again.”

“Is it safe? I’ll go with you!”

“It’s fine; the Messenger of Justice is with me.” She was still wearing Yu Minglang’s clothes.

“Do you know the man who put out the fire? Your daughter is wearing a man’s clothes; it’s a bit strange.”

“You’ve forgotten? He saved us before.”

“Ah, it’s him. No wonder he looked so familiar.”

Xiao Qian took the box containing the negatives and photos and went out again.

“Qian’er, do you really not need me to go with you?”

“It’s fine, he was sent by the authorities, nothing will happen,” Xiao Qian lied casually, successfully deceiving Jia Xiufang.

Once in the car again, she watched him expertly start the vehicle.

“Are all the negatives in here?”

“Yes, they’re all here. I originally planned to burn them, but there wasn’t enough time.” Xiao Qian had also considered continuing to use these negatives to her advantage.

But since she had promised Yu Minglang, she had to keep her word.

“Put on your seatbelt and close your eyes for a rest. It might take a while.” He adjusted his speed.

“Where are we going?”

“The Holiday Resort.”

Wasn’t that place quite far from the downtown area? It would take 30 minutes by car. What did he want to take her there for?

Li Zhen’s father happened to be summering in the area and was already resting when he heard someone kicking the door. The security guard came over with a stick, and Yu Minglang honked his horn furiously.

Xiao Qian hadn’t expected him to bring her to this place.

“I want to see my uncle Li Aiguo.” Yu Minglang handed over his credentials, and the security guard didn’t dare delay, letting Yu Minglang into the courtyard.

“When we go in, don’t say anything. Leave everything to me.” He unbuckled his seatbelt, and Xiao Qian nodded.

She could roughly guess what Yu Minglang was planning to do.

At this time, Aunt and Uncle were already asleep. Yu Minglang visited late at night and didn’t even give them time to change clothes.

“Old Yu, what brings you here?” Aunt saw Yu Minglang storming in with a murderous look and was startled, rushing forward to try to pull him aside to talk privately.

Yu Minglang shook off her hand and threw the box in Xiao Qian’s hand in front of them.

“Look at these, what are they?”

Uncle picked them up, took a look, and turned pale with anger.

“Where did they come from!”

“You don’t need to ask where they came from; just ask your precious son what he’s done! Call him and ask!”

Li Zhen didn’t live with his parents, who usually stayed in the Imperial Capital. They had only come over recently to convalesce, while Li Zhen lived alone in the city.

“Nonsense, nonsense!” Uncle gasped, his face turning pale. Aunt hurried to find some pills; he was getting old, and his heart wasn’t good.

“You handle this. I was too lazy to deal with such trivial matters before, but now it’s not just about his personal style. You should investigate it yourselves! The scoundrel who’s mixed up with him is named Ni Jianren. In order to cover up his sexual orientation, he deceived this girl into getting engaged. When discovered, one of them came up with the rotten idea to set fire to the girl’s house.”

“Ah!” Aunt was shocked, and Uncle was so furious his hands trembled.

“Li Zhen wouldn’t do such a thing; he’s just a bit mischievous.” Aunt defended, then turned to Xiao Qian and asked, “Miss, if you have any grievances, you can tell me. I can compensate you in other ways, but don’t just slander our family’s Li Zhen.”

“Enough!” Yu Minglang interrupted, pulling Xiao Qian behind him to protect her, and pointed at his aunt to scold her.

“A doting mother has a spoiled child. I’m not talking to you, a family-ruining old woman! I showed mercy last time, and look what happened tonight. Uncle, you have to make a stand!”

Aunt stared wide-eyed – he dared to call her a family-ruining old woman?

“Miss, were there any casualties at your house? How about the property damage?” Uncle asked.

“The walls were burned, and people were frightened. I’ve already reported it.” Xiao Qian replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

“We’ll investigate this matter thoroughly. If Li Zhen did it, we absolutely won’t shield him. If it wasn’t Li Zhen, I promise we won’t let Li Zhen protect the culprit. We’ll handle it fairly, and whatever should be done will be done. Is that okay?”

“Old Li!” Aunt heard that they wanted to handle it fairly and desperately tried to pull her husband away, but he pushed her aside.

“Old Yu is right; you’ve spoiled the child. You keep quiet!”

“Miss, you drop the case. Don’t make a scene; we’ll settle it privately. Is that okay?” Aunt worriedly tried to pull Xiao Qian, but Yu Minglang pushed her away.

“No, absolutely not private.” Yu Minglang insisted firmly.

If he had gone directly to his uncle from the beginning, perhaps the fire wouldn’t have happened that night.

Fortunately, he had arrived in time, or what would have happened to Xiao Qian and her family?

“Yu Minglang, are you bewitched by this woman? You’re actually helping an outsider?” Aunt was furious.

“I only help justice! No matter whether Li Zhen did it or not, you cannot condone it. If it is Li Zhen, with his status running around doing evil, do you still want to have a good life? If it’s not Li Zhen, but there’s a disaster like this by his side, do you plan to watch Li Zhen destroy himself? Now it’s just arson; in the future, will they buy murderers to kill? The father’s reputation for a lifetime will be ruined in his hands!”

“Doesn’t it mean no one died in the fire? Just give her money, and it’s over!” Aunt regretted her words as soon as she had spoken them.

She was too anxious to save her son and spoke carelessly, offending both Yu Minglang and her husband.

Xiao Qian watched coldly, thinking, is this what counts for bullying?

Suddenly, something was thrust into her hand.

A lighter?

She looked at Yu Minglang. Why are you giving me this?

“Burn it! Burn anything in this room you don’t like the look of. I’m watching, no one will die!”

Youngest Brother Yu in the Yu Family was fearless and had earned his nickname, the Little Demon King. He had been restrained for a while after spending time at the old unit, but deep down, he was still like his father. When he was riled up, even his aunt wasn’t persuasive!

Of course, Mother Yu didn’t bully people like Aunt did either.

Xiao Qian, of course, couldn’t really set the room on fire. What sort of place was this?

The people standing outside weren’t just for show; if she really dared to burn the place, they might take action.

“Youngest Brother Yu! Who held you when you were little! An ungrateful wretch who turns against his family for a woman!” Aunt was furious when she heard that Yu Minglang wanted to burn her house down and wanted to strangle him.

“You’re the one who said it’s fine as long as no one dies in the fire, aren’t you? This respected lady, your life is valuable, and so is mine. I don’t want a penny from you. I don’t want to say anything to you before the matter is clear, but if Li Zhen did it, please apologize to me and my family.”

With Xiao Qian’s resolute words, several people in the room had different reactions..
