  Not long after Huo Heng left the main room, he saw a thin and small figure coming out of the kitchen.

  The Xia family’s house was housed in a rectangular courtyard.

  After that figure came out of the kitchen in the main wing, she quietly went to the east wing.

  Huo Heng followed her in his wheelchair.

  The kitchen stove in the east wing was filled with chicken soup. The thin and small girl seemed to have squeezed something inside and stirred it with her chopsticks before she quietly left.

  The girl did not go far and hid outside the kitchen.

  Seeing the girl’s actions, Huo Heng narrowed his long and charming eyes slightly.

  Xia Furong, who was resting in her room, guessed that the chicken soup her mother had made for her was almost done. She walked to the kitchen and scooped a bowl for herself.

  It was indeed the old hen her mother had brought back from her mother’s house. The soup was really delicious.

  Xia Furong thought that she was the prettiest among the descendants of the Xia family. Even in Wenfeng County, her beauty was almost unparalleled.

  Her wish since young was to enter the entertainment industry and become a popular celebrity.

  When Ye Guixiang found out about her daughter’s ambition, she secretly gave her special treatment and provided her with all kinds of nutritional supplements.

  Xia Furong was indeed raised to be fair and pretty. Just like her name, she was like a hibiscus flower and not like the children of the second branch whose skin was rough and flesh was thick. They looked like country bumpkins. Xia Furong never did housework and she was as pampered as a piece of jade.

  Even the Xia Wangshi felt that if Xia Furong was born in ancient times, she would definitely be able to enter the palace and become a concubine.

  Of course, even now, she was going to marry into a rich family in the future.

  So, even if the Huo family from Yan City came to ask for her hand in marriage, she didn’t force Xia Furong when she heard that she wasn’t willing to marry.

  Xia Furong drank a bowl of chicken soup and prepared to go to her room to rest.

  Suddenly, her expression changed.

  Her stomach hurt.

  Xia Cha, who was hiding outside, saw that Xia Furong was starting to act up. She hurriedly ran back to the second branch’s quarters in the south wing.

  Her father was ranked second in the family, but their family lived in the south with the lowest terrain. In the past, it was the servants who had lived in the south.

  Of course, to the Xia family, their second branch were their servants.

  The water pipe in Xia Furong’s family’s washroom was broken. There were guests coming today and they didn’t have time to repair it. If Xia Furong wanted to go to the washroom, she could either go to the main room or the west room where the third branch’s wing was.

  Now that there were guests in the main room, she lied that she was sick and could not go. She felt that the washroom in the second branch’s wing was used by the poor, so she did not like it and did not want to go there.

  As such, she went to the west wing.

  Seeing that Xia Furong had gone to the third branch’s wing, Xia Cha hurriedly came out of the room.

  The wife of the third son, Fang Liu’s daughter, Xia Guo, was playing with several children at the entrance.

  Xia Guo was only seven years old and was easily deceived. Xia Cha walked to the door and deliberately moved her mouth. “This black thing is sweet and soft. It’s really delicious!”


  Hearing Xia Cha’s voice, Xia Guo turned around and saw that the corner of her mouth was a little dark, as if she had secretly eaten something. She ran over and put her hands on her waist, questioning, “Sister Cha Cha, what are you eating?”


  Fang Liu’s family background was not bad. She was good at dressing up and naturally dressed her daughter well.

  Xia Guo was wearing a pink tutu dress and had two high ponytails on her head. She was fair and chubby from her mother’s upbringing.

  “I… I didn’t eat anything.” Xia Cha looked guilty and ran away hurriedly.

  Xia Guo frowned.

  It was dark, sweet and soft. Why did it look so much like the delicious chocolate her uncle had bought for her at the supermarket?

  The second branch had never eaten such a thing before.

  Had Xia Cha stolen chocolate from her room?

  Xia Guo hurriedly ran toward the west wing.

  The moment she entered the door, she heard a noise in the house. She thought that Xia Cha had come to steal her chocolate again. She shouted at the top of her lungs, “Ahhh, there’s a thief! Come and catch the thief! Mommy, Daddy, a thief entered our house!”


  Fang Liu was smart and selfish. The daughter she raised was naturally selfish as well. She would rather spoil her delicious food than share it with the others in the yard.

  Since Xia Cha dared to steal her baby, she must tell Grandma and let Grandma punish her by hitting her!

  Xia Guo shouted even louder.

  Xia Furong, who was in the washroom, gritted her teeth. She wanted to go out and strangle that fat girl to death!

  Did she have to do that? She was just using the washroom!

  Xia Furong wanted to come out, but her stomach hurt again.

  The people in the main room heard Xia Guo screaming and did not know what had happened.

  After Fang Liu and Xia Zhenli informed Xia Wangshi, they came out of the main room.

  Xia Wangshi said to Old Madam Huo awkwardly, “The girl from the third branch is still young and insensible.”


  At this moment, a voice trailed over. “I think the little girl has run into something. Why don’t we go take a look?”


  It was Huo Heng, who had returned to the main hall.

  Old Madam Huo was unhappy with Xia Lan arranged by the Xia family. She could tell that Xia Lan had no status in the Xia family. It was obvious that the Xia family did not take the Huo family seriously.

  Old Madam Huo did not even want to eat anymore. Hearing Huo Heng’s words, she got up. “Let’s go out and take a look. A little girl is crying like that. We can’t let anything happen to her.”


  Xia Wangshi wanted to stop her, but it was too late.

  …


  When Xia Guo saw Fang Liu and Xia Zhenli rushing over, she pointed in the direction of the washroom. “Mom, Dad, a thief stole my things and hid in the washroom. Catch her quickly!”


  What?!

  A thief?

  Xia Zhenli and Fang Liu’s expressions changed.

  Since there were guests today, the whole family was at home. They thought that it was impossible for thieves to come in, so they did not lock the door. Besides, usually, when Xia Wangshi was at home, they were not allowed to lock the door. They said that locking the door was for guarding against thieves. With her around, it was impossible for thieves to appear.

  After Xia Zhenli and Fang Liu looked at each other, Xia Zhenli took a broom and approached the washroom.

  Just as he was about to approach, the washroom door was opened from the inside.

  Xia Furong was about to speak when Xia Zhenli’s broom landed on her head.

  Xia Furong usually cherished her face the most. She subconsciously hugged her head and ran outside.

  Seeing that she wanted to escape, Xia Zhenli chased after her quickly.

  Xia Guo and Fang Liu shouted, “Catch the thief! Catch the thief!”


  Xia Furong ran to the door and Xia Zhenli chased after her. He grabbed the back of her collar. “How dare you come to our room to steal our things in broad daylight?”


  “Third Uncle, it’s me!”


  Xia Furong turned back and glared at Xia Zhenli with a dark expression.

  “S-sister Furong, aren’t you sick and bedridden?” At this moment, a soft and weak voice sounded.

  Xia Furong turned back and was about to glare at the person who spoke. However, she hadn’t expected to see countless figures standing in front of the three doors.

  Xia Furong’s mind buzzed and instantly went blank.
