Chapter 1230: I Believe Her
Qi Zhi’an was not expecting to see Xia Xibei here and was stunned.
His reaction made Qi Xin turn grim.
The two of them really did have something going on!
“Why are you here?” Qi Zhi’an asked Xia Xibei, unaware of what was on his daughter’s mind.
He looked around again, as there were so many people gathered here.
“What are you all doing here? What happened?”
“Uncle An, she hurt these two spirit plants!” they immediately shouted.
“What?!” The people following Qi Zhi’an immediately got anxious. “Who did this?!”
Everyone looked over, and they saw the damaged spirit plants on the ground.
Everyone was immediately distressed. These were spirit plants!
“Who did this?!”
...
“Did she do it?”
Everyone looked at Xia Xibei.
These were all elders of the Qi family and in their 40s and 50s, comparable to Qi Zhi’an’s generation.
They were members of the Qi family, so they naturally valued the Qi family’s interests.
Now that the rare spiritual plants were actually destroyed, who wouldn’t be angry?
“I didn’t do it.”
Even with so many more people, Xia Xibei wasn’t too nervous.
However, her calmness and composure was taken as recklessness.
“Other than you, who else would destroy things here?”
Qi Xin looked at Xia Xibei with a cold, hard expression.
She also glanced at her father after she finished speaking to Xia Xibei.
Qi Zhi’an froze for a moment at the look in his daughter’s eyes, but didn’t think too much of it. He just assumed she wanted him to do justice.
“It wouldn’t be her doing.”
Qi Zhi’an did stand up, but the words that came out made everyone clamor.
“How do you know she didn’t do it?”
Qi Xin’s face instantly darkened. She didn’t expect that without asking anything, her father would side with Xia Xibei!
How much foul play must there be between the two of them?!
She was both angry and sad.
Who could not be angry when a family of three, which was thought to be beautiful and harmonious, was suddenly destroyed by a mistress about her own age?
“She doesn’t need to do this kind of thing at all,” Qi Zhi’an shook his head and said with certainty.
Seeing him so certain, Qi Xin’s heart felt even colder.
It was outrageous that her father was taking this hussy’s side!
“Second Brother, that’s not right,” Qi Zhiqiang stood out, frowning in disapproval. “Who else here would do such a thing except for her, an outsider?”
Xia Xibei sneered, “Who told you that only I would do such a thing?”
“Isn’t it?”
Being contradicted by Xia Xibei, Qi Zhiqiang’s face instantly darkened, “Whose child are you? Don’t you know any manners?”
Manners?
Xia Xibei pursed her lips.
In the face of people who used their seniority to oppress her, why should she be polite?
“Big brother,” Qi Zhi’an gave him a sullen look, a warning in his eyes. “Things are not clear yet.”
“How is it not clear?” Qi Zhiqiang was annoyed. “The whole thing is crystal clear!”
He pointed to the surrounding crowd, “Xiangyuan, you explain!”
Qi Xiangyuan stepped forward, “I left a while ago, and when I came back, she was already here. I thought she was acting sneaky, so I wanted to stop her, but to my surprise, she was quite strong!”
“When we came over, we saw them fighting,” Qi Xin added. “Then, we found out that something happened to the spirit plants.”
“Right! That’s it!”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
“Look, how are things not clear like this?!” Qi Zhiqiang narrowed his eyes at Qi Zhi’an, then asked in a cold voice, “Do you two have a special relationship? Is that why you’re protecting her like this?!”
“What special relationship?” a voice rang out.
