Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife

Chapter 513: Chapter 513: It Can’t Be Him!

Chen Xiao never imagined that Chen Yan, who had always troubled him, would be by his side.

But now, the shadow of Chen Yan caught in Qingxi was already telling him that the person had been closely watching him all along.

But who is he?

As this question appeared in Chen Xiao’s mind, he sat quietly alone in the back seat of the car.

Lin Xi silently drove the car, heading towards Songshanping.

Chen Xiao had already come out, although the case remained deadlocked.

But those who care about him are all waiting for his return.

Like his in-laws, and her family, even Zhao Xiaoyu came over.

Throughout the journey, Chen Xiao was busy writing down all the people he knew on paper.

Yet on this list, Chen Xiao did not include his parents, in-laws, or his relatives.

Chen Xiao knew it seemed insufficiently rigorous.

But that’s just how he is, or perhaps this is his view on family since his rebirth.

If he cannot trust his family enough, then he doesn’t see the meaning of his rebirth.

Aside from family, quite a few acquaintances were also excluded.

Luo Dali, Xiaoji, Xiaoji Knife Man, Liu Dayou - he knows all of them deeply.

In fact, Chen Xiao has watched them grow to the point they are at today.

But still, what other person would be Chen Yan?

Chen Xiao’s thoughts kept expanding, but none of those silhouettes in his mind could form the image of Chen Yan.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Xi stopped the car and softly said:

"Honey, we’re home."

Chen Xiao withdrew his thoughts, looked at his familiar hometown, and couldn’t help but smile:

"I’ve worried you all these days."

"I don’t feel much, but the parents on both sides have been unable to lift their spirits these days."

Chen Xiao nodded, opened the car door, and got out.

As soon as he entered the yard, the family all rushed out.

His parents and in-laws were the most concerned, and Chen Xiao patiently explained to them the things he had encountered.

The parents and in-laws actually didn’t understand the intricacies of the case; they only knew Chen Xiao was released peacefully, and so there’s truly nothing to worry about.

His mom was very happy and immediately went to the kitchen to prepare, saying she would make a feast tonight to celebrate.

His mother-in-law, Han Meixiang, did the same, also heading to the kitchen.

Just as Chen Xiao was about to return to the house to continue pondering, a large and a small figure suddenly walked in from outside.

"Brother-in-law, you finally came back!"

Sister-in-law Lin Yao exclaimed in surprise, but there was another person who threw herself into his arms.

"Brother Chen Xiao, are you alright!"

Looking at Zhao Xiaoyu, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but be stunned, glancing at Lin Xi with confusion:

"Did Xiaoyu come back with Xiaoyao?"

Lin Xi smiled and nodded: "Mr. Zhao has been busy lately, and Xiaoyu has been entrusted to Xiaoyao. So when she wanted to return, she brought Xiaoyu along."

Chen Xiao said "oh," then pulled Zhao Xiaoyu aside, laughing as he asked:

"Was Xiaoyu worried about me too?"

Zhao Xiaoyu nodded repeatedly: "Of course worried, Sister Xiaoyao said you were arrested, just like on TV, locked in a dark room unable to move!"

Chen Xiao squinted at his sister-in-law immediately.

Lin Yao instantly laughed awkwardly: "Well... I just wanted to inculcate law-abiding thoughts in Xiaoyu from a young age!"

"Seeing as you still care about me as a brother-in-law, I won’t hold you accountable this time. But did you inform her dad when you brought Xiaoyu back?"

To Zhao Xiaoyu, it might just be a hometown.

But to Zhao Hai, the entire Dongzhou is a heartbroken city.

He didn’t want to return to Dongzhou, so he moved far from this city to Shencheng City.

Now that Lin Yao brought Zhao Xiaoyu back, Chen Xiao naturally had to ask.

Lin Yao nodded repeatedly: "We agreed before coming."

Chen Xiao replied with a hum, didn’t say much, just looked deeply at Zhao Xiaoyu before pulling her aside.

Lin Xi silently watched, saying nothing.

She could already see clearly, Chen Xiao really likes kids.

Whether it’s Zhao Xiaoyu or Ah Yu.

After Chen Xiao seated Zhao Xiaoyu on his lap, he started asking about her studies.

Even though elementary school Zhao Xiaoyu found the word "studies" a bit harsh to say.

But Zhao Xiaoyu was still very proud saying she scored one hundred in every subject and was first in class!

Chen Xiao immediately raised a thumbs up and asked: "Is dad’s work busy lately?"

"Busy, I haven’t seen dad for many days. But dad works hard every day, always striving to work."

Chen Xiao nodded with a smile: "So dad is still in Shencheng City?"

"He is, I’ve called him and he sounds very tired, Xiaoyu feels sorry for him."

"When Xiaoyu returns, give dad a shoulder rub and a leg massage."

"Okay!"

The little girl nodded seriously.

But the next second, Chen Xiao set her down and then picked up a tree branch.

"Xiaoyu, you learned new Chinese characters, right? Let brother check how well you’re writing!"

"Okay!"

Zhao Xiaoyu said happily, then started using a tree branch to write the Chinese characters she learned since entering primary school, one by one on the ground.

Looking at those characters, Chen Xiao’s expression showed no difference.

Only a full smile appeared.

After Zhao Xiaoyu finished writing, Chen Xiao suddenly said:

"Xiaoyu, brother’s legs are numb from squatting, help me up."

"Okay."

Zhao Xiaoyu exerted all her strength to help Chen Xiao stand up.

This scene happened to be seen by Lin Xi.

She knew Chen Xiao’s physical condition very well, it’s not possible for him to be unable to stand after squatting for a while.

She quickly walked in front of Chen Xiao and asked:

"What’s wrong, why do you seem off?"

"Let me be quiet for a while, call me when it’s time to eat."

Chen Xiao waved his hand and didn’t say anything more to Lin Xi or Zhao Xiaoyu, heading straight back to the room.

Lin Xi felt very strange, but the writing on the ground didn’t seem odd to her.

Lin Xi was puzzled, but as Chen Xiao wanted silence, she could only take Zhao Xiaoyu to play in the house.

But after just two steps, Lin Xi stopped.

She looked back at the words left by Zhao Xiaoyu on the ground and asked:

"Xiaoyu, did the teacher just teach these beautiful words after school started?"

"Yes and no, dad taught me these words a long time ago, I can write many, many words!"

Hearing this, Lin Xi’s eyes widened a little.

A thought popped into her mind.

But the moment it popped into her mind, she wanted to suppress it.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, it can’t be him!"
