Chapter 370: Arrested

"Aunt Xinyi, when will Mama Dada come back?" Chyou was getting restless. "Mama Dada promised we eat outside today and have fun!"

Xinyi pursed her lips. They were in Xiaosi and Caihong's room, playing and drawing together. Her heart tightened seeing her sad and waiting so impatiently. Chyou was all dressed up and eager for tonight's dinner. Xinyi didn't have the heart to say that the promise broke.

"Haha Mama Dada are planning a surprise for their angel Chyou."

Chyo beamed. "Surprise!"

"Yes," Xinyi whispered, "Don't tell them that I told you or they will get mad. It was supposed to be a surprise."

Chyou seriously nodded. "I won't!" 

Her excitement knew no bounds to realize that she would be getting gifts and surprises.

"I cannot wait, Aunt!" She giggled.

Xinyi smiled. She kissed her cheek. "Patience. Xiaosi and Caihong are busy with your gift, so please give them some time, okay?"

"En!"

Then Ah Cy stepped in with her cute daughter Leina in her arms. "Look who is here~~"

"Leina!" Chyou brightened.

"Chyou!"

The girls immediately hugged as if they were separated for a long time.

Ah Cy put a paper bag down and said, "Who wants some sweet treats?"

"Me!" They raised their hands in unison.

Xinyi felt relieved now. With Leina now, Chyou will be busy playing with her. Her attention wouldn't go to Xiaosi and Caihong. At least, she hoped that.

Ah Cy sat beside her. She asked, concerned, "How is it at home?"

Xinyi sighed and pressed her brows. "Nothing is alright, Ah Cy. It's a mess. I don't know what to do anymore. You cannot even imagine how it is. Grandpa and Dad are shocked beyond imagination after knowing Aunt's truth. And Zizi...she is devastated. I cannot even think what she must be feeling after coming to know that she is Uncle An and Aunt's daughter."

Ah Cy let out a sigh too. "Damn it. I never thought the past had such reasons for happening. Everything is so complicated. On top of that Xiaosi's accident now...It's like fate doesn't want us to be happy at all."

Xinyi's gaze dimmed. She glanced at Chyou, who was laughing and giggling. Her smile was so pure. But if she came to know about Xiaosi's accident, it would vanish. 

"You stay with them here. I will bring some juice for them."

As she came back with a small tray, her sight fell on to a small picture frame on Caihong's table. The picture was of An Guoting and a woman standing with him, smiling brightly with her arms in his.

She is An Yueqin, right?

Xinyi took the picture and stared at it. It was a very old picture, and she wondered if An Guoting must have given it to his daughter as her mother's last memory. 

An Guoting seemed happy. He had a smile that matched his wife's. If An Yueqin hadn't passed away so early, then nothing of this might have happened. Perhaps, he and Han Zongying would have never met.

An Yueqin was really beautiful. With that smile on her lips, she looked even more energetic. She understood why An Guoting would have fallen for her.

She put the picture back on the table and sighed.

For now, she only prayed that Caihong's smile would come back again…

As Caihong returned to the hospital, An Guoting and Shuang rushed to her side. "Caihong, you...I just heard from Yunru that Xiaosi's mother confessed. Were you gone to confront her?"

Caihong slowly nodded.

An Guoting gritted his teeth. "You! Do you know how dangerous it might have been? What if she might have hurt you!"

Shuang complained. "You should have taken me with you. I would have made her just like that bitch He Lijuan!"

Zhiyuan's gaze darkened. "I cannot believe a mother can go this far. Has she lost it?"

But Zhiyuan knew that the one most hurt would be Xiaosi himself. If he came to know that his own mother tried to kill him, his grief would be unimaginable.

An Guoting said, "Caihong, you shouldn't have gone alone!"

Caihong smiled. "I am okay, Dad. You worry too much.'

He looked at her and his wife's image to his mind.

'I am okay, Guoting,' An Yueqin chuckled, 'You worry too much.'

An Guoting remained quiet. Then Zhiyuan asked, "I guess her family must know everything by now."

Caihong sneered. "Yes."

"What is their reaction?"

"They aren't thrilled. But not because of Xiaosi's identity. It's because she attempted to murder him."

Zhiyuan raised his brow in surprise. He never thought that Lei Biya's family would be supportive of Xiaosi and his identity. He thought it would be hard for them to accept it and might even ignore Xiaosi from now on. But the whole family stood by him.

"What about the case against Lei Biya?"

Caihong stared at him. "Her husband was distraught. Lei Shu and Lei Shing were in pain too. But they agreed that they wouldn't interfere with my decision of taking her to the cops. And they better not after she brought Xiaosi to this condition."

There was a beat of silence.

"And Lei Biya?" Shuang asked.

"I thought she would cause a scene and beg me not to file a case against her. But she was surprisingly quiet. She didn't show any resistance. Well, she doesn't have any scope to. Even her family is disappointed in her now. Nothing will go back again to how it was. She is now at the police station."

"Hm. Yunru said that the cops have caught the driver too."

She nodded. Then she quietly said, "The Lei family will drop by later in the hospital."

Zhiyuan said, "We should hide this from Xiaosi."

Caihong bit her lip. "Believe me. I want to, Zhiyuan. But we cannot do it forever. Lei Biya will soon be in jail. The news will reach him sooner or later."

"I know. I am saying as long as we can. Until he gets fully recovered and is... able to take it."

Her eyes stung in tears.

She saw Jack Si coming out of the operation theatre. "Jack!"

She rushed towards him and asked, "How is Xiaosi now?'
