After Marrying the Officer

Chapter 213: Chapter 213: No Fierce People Allowed

Xia Chengzong took a deep breath, then continued, "Li Qiang said, my brother told him, if the high-interest loan can’t be repaid, let Second Aunt decide to give you to him."

"Haha." Xia Chuyi laughed bitterly.

Does Xia Chengzu have a hole in his brain?

Oh, that’s not right, didn’t the Xia Family do this in my past life? They sold me to a widower!

Xia Chengzong knew that his cousin sister was angry, he could only helplessly say, "Chuyi, I’m sorry."

"Don’t worry, you’re now dating Huo Commander, even if Brother Qiang is given ten times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to touch you."

"It’s just that my heart is in pain, my closest family members turn out to be scoundrels, and I thought my honorable big brother was nothing but a complete gangster!"

At this, Xia Chengzong was filled with anger, slapped his own head, and said, "I really am blind!"

"I can’t believe I didn’t see him for what he really is!"

"I thought he was looking out for ’Youwei’ because of my face, but it turns out, he was after you!"

Xia Chengzong felt like he was blind, almost leading the wolf into the house.

"Who has the hots for Chuyi?" Suddenly, an icy voice laced with murderous intent came from behind.

Xia Chengzong’s body stiffened all of a sudden, his voice got stuck in his throat.

However, it was Xia Chuyi who, upon seeing her Uncle Liberation Army looking furious and indignant, felt the anger in her heart dissipate.

She stepped forward to pull him, about to say something, when she was suddenly pulled by Huo Shiqian’s large hand and held tightly in his possessive embrace.

"Who is that person?" Huo Shiqian stared at Xia Chengzong and asked.

Xia Chengzong felt it was difficult even to speak, his scalp tingling as he said, "It’s... it’s Li Qiang, my former big brother."

"Brother Shiqian, don’t be mad at my second brother." Xia Chuyi’s small hand scratched at his chest, coquettishly.

"I’m not mad at him." The storm on Huo Shiqian’s face did not subside.

"Is that Li Qiang a part of the underworld?" he asked Xia Chengzong again.

"Yes." Xia Chengzong nodded solemnly.

He finally had to admit that what he once thought was the righteousness of Jianghu, the big brother of Jianghu, was just the underworld.

"Second brother, you don’t have to blame yourself so much, this has nothing to do with you." Xia Chuyi saw her second brother so down and tried to comfort him, "He is he, you are you, you didn’t do anything bad when you were with Brother Qiang."

At this, Xia Chengzong felt even more pain.

"I didn’t know." He held his head in his hands.

He didn’t know when he was following Brother Qiang, drinking and fighting, covering the turf, if there were any dirty deals going on behind his back.

"Commander Huo, I know you’re cracking down on the underworld, tell Director Chang to take me away too." Xia Chengzong felt a sense of self-abandonment.

Xia Chuyi immediately gave Huo Shiqian a pitiful look.

Huo Shiqian’s expression remained unchanged, "If you truly have participated, I will not show favoritism."

"But if you didn’t, I won’t misuse the law."

Xia Chuyi quickly said, "My second brother isn’t that kind of person! I believe in him!"

The words had both men looking at her at the same time.

Xia Chengzong wore a look of disbelief.

Huo Shiqian pursed his lips, remained silent, clearly, he was transferring his anger.

She grabbed the hem of his clothes and said, "Brother Shiqian, you believe me, I know my second brother is a good person, just like how I knew from the first glance that you are an upstanding, trustworthy good man!"

Her words were both an indirect plea and flattery.
