Chapter 193: The Decision to Retreat
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Wan pretended to be deep in thought. “A ring? Grandma, are you talking about the marriage token that Grandpa mentioned before?” Li Jin nodded. “Yes, that ring. Where’s the ring? Where is he?”
“I lost it,” Xia Wan confessed directly.
“What? Lost? How could you lose such an important token?” Li Jin shouted, about to pick a fight with Xia Wan.
“To be exact, it disappeared when I fell into the water,” Xia Wan said.
Li Jin was a little stunned. “Fell into the water? When was it?”
“The last time I was pushed into the river, my two cousins saw it, but no one came to save me. It was a ring left behind by Grandfather. I treasure it a lot, so I used a string to make a necklace and wore it on my body at all times. But that time, I fell into the river and couldn’t swim at all, so it drifted away with the water.
She was referring to the time when she fell into the water when she had just been reborn. Since everything started from there, she would use this as the perfect excuse now.
“Impossible,” Li Jin muttered, shaking her head. “It’s impossible to lose!” She pounced on Xia Wan and wanted to grab her neck, but Xia Chen stopped her.
“Grandma, what are you doing?” Xia Chen asked coldly.
“Impossible, she’s lying,” Li Jin said with certainty.
“Let me search your house now. Otherwise, you’re lying to me!” As she spoke, Li Jin proceeded ahead and attempted to barge into the villa.
Xia Wan shouted in a more serious voice, “Stop!”
“Grandma, don’t say I didn’t warn you. You’re trespa.s.sing on private property. It’s a small crime, and they’ll let you off after a small punishment. But if you go in and search for things, it’ll be a lot more serious.
“Only a small part of the things here belong to us. Most of them belong to the landlord. If you break in and damage any of those, you might not be able to pay for it even if you use all your a.s.sets. You’ll also have to go to jail.
“Grandma, if you don’t want to live a free life anymore and want to stay in prison, you can go ahead and search,” Xia Wan said, letting Li Jin search her.
Li Jin hesitated and subconsciously looked at Song Yan, who had more ideas, and asked, “What do we do now? Should we go in and search? Is she telling the truth?”
Song Yan was also a little conflicted. She did not know if she could search this place.
The neighbors around them said, “The young lady is right. She didn’t lie to you. None of the furniture that we buy here is cheap. Some of them cost thousands of yuan. You won’t be able to afford a single piece.
They said this because, on the one hand, they didn’t like Li Jin’s att.i.tude. She was clearly a bully. On the other hand, it was the truth. The furniture they bought was generally more expensive, but it was only a few thousand yuan.
There were many that were merely a few hundred yuan.
At the subject of the unanimous voice of dissent, Li Jin didn’t dare to proceed.
She hated Xia Wan in her heart. She felt that the girl was simply lucky, not to mention she had everyone’s protection.
Chen Lian also came to Li Jin and said, “Mother, what do we do now? We can’t go in. Xia Wan said that the token is lost. If we can’t even take out the token, the Lu family will never let our daughter marry into theirs.”
Li Jin was already feeling vexed, and hearing Chen Lian’s explanation made her even more so.
“Don’t argue here. If you have the ability, go argue with Xia Wan!” Li Jin shouted at Chen Lian impatiently.
Chen Lian also felt wronged. She felt that Li Jin was venting her anger at her just because she couldn’t subdue Xia Wan.
She looked at Song Yan unhappily and said, “Sister-in-law, you always say that you’re smart and that our family has stupid brains. So why don’t you tell me what we should do now?”
Song Yan didn’t say anything. She was only thinking about where Xia Ru had gone and whether she could successfully marry Lu Lin.
If Xia Ru could marry Lu Lin, the token would be of little significance. However, if she could not marry Lu Lin, the token would become very important.
Nonetheless, she had the same thought as Li Jin. She didn’t think that Xia Wan had lost the token.
“How about this? Let’s go back first,” Song Yan said. “We’ll talk about this another day.”
Li Jin was anxious. “Another day? How can we do that? What if they move again?”
“Don’t worry, mother. It won’t happen. This villa is quite good. They won’t be able to find a better house. How can they move so easily? Besides, they don’t have the money to keep moving. Rent isn’t cheap. I heard that you have to pay at least three months’ rent in advance to get a house. They’ve already paid for three months. How can they not be dry by now?” Song Yan’s words relieved Li Jin greatly..
