Xia Ye refused to admit defeat and said, “If you’re so good, then you should look for Xia Wan’s trouble. That Lu Lin looks like a bad-tempered person. It might take some time to find Xia Wan, and when Lu Lin loses his patience and destroys our house and, in turn, prevents your dad and my dad from working, can you bear the consequences?”
Xia Ru was rendered speechless by Xia Ye’s words. She realized that Xia Ye was usually slow to react, but when it came to this matter, she was very quick.
Just as Xia Ye had said, if they delayed finding Xia Wan and the others, it would be too late for Lu Lin to take revenge on her family.
However, Xia Ru was not willing to be restricted by Xia Ye just like that. She was only looking to cause Xia Wan trouble. It was not a big deal. Why would Xia Ye use this to threaten her?
Xia Wan stood silently behind them. She could not help but sneer when she saw them arguing over the small matter.
When her family was ostracized, these people were surprisingly united. But now that her family was excluded, the remaining members started to fight among themselves.
Xia Ru knew that she wouldn’t give this opportunity to Xia Ye, but finding Xia Wan was the most important thing to do now. Hence, Xia Ru pretended to compromise and said, “Okay, okay, okay. After we find Xia Wan and get the token, I’m willing to give you the opportunity if that Lu Lin likes you. Is that okay?”
Seeing that Xia Ru was suddenly so agreeable, Xia Ye did not believe her.
“You’re going to give me a chance so easily?” Xia Ye asked suspiciously. Xia Ru pretended to be kind and said, “We’re good sisters, unlike Xia Wan.
We’ve always been united.
“It doesn’t matter which one of us marries Lu Lin. Our families should help each other. How can we embarrass ourselves over such a small matter?
“Moreover, on the bright side, we can marry into the Lu family. On the dark side, Lu Lin might not be willing to marry us. After all, we are from the same family.
Seeing that Xia Ru had taken the initiative to give in, Xia Ye’s expression improved. She felt that Xia Ru made sense. Whether or not she could marry Lu Lin was another matter. It would not do her much good if she did not marry him and fell out with Xia Ru.
With that in mind, Xia Ye’s tone softened, and they reached a temporary truce. Then, she led everyone to Xia Wan’s shop.
However, when they arrived, they saw that the stall was completely empty. There was nothing there.
Seeing this scene, Xia Ru could no longer maintain her fair expression. She directly asked Xia Ye, “This is where Xia Wan’s stall is? Where is she?”
Li Jin even questioned her. “Xia Ye, you’re still telling me that you brought your classmate here to buy clothes? Where is she now? You can’t even find a place to sit!”
After being questioned, Xia Ye felt a little aggrieved, so she quickly explained, “Xia Wan used to set up her stall here. Look at the shop behind her. It has been in business for over ten years and has always been here. How could I have remembered it wrong?”
If you don’t believe me, you can ask my classmates. Xia Wan really has a stall here, but I don’t know why she didn’t open it today. Why don’t we wait a little longer? She’ll definitely open her stall tomorrow.
Xia Ye was still anxiously explaining to the crowd, afraid that they would not believe her. At this time, Song Yan understood and said to Li Jin, “Mother, don’t you think that all of this is too much of a coincidence? He was gone when we went to the hospital to look for Xia Hai. When we came here to look for Xia Wan, she stopped setting up her stall. It’s as if they’re avoiding us on purpose.”
Song Yan’s words made everyone think. If Xia Wan was deliberately hiding from them, then why?
Li Jin was also thinking the same thing. She couldn’t help but mutter, “This Lu Lin only found our house today. After he came to find us, we immediately went to the hospital to find Xia Hai, but we didn’t find any trace of him. Then, we went to Xia Wan’s stall but didn’t find her either.. How did they know that we were looking for them in advance?”
