Yu Shuigen felt wronged no matter how he thought about it. He didnât want to confront his own father, so in anger, he ran to the back mountain and vented his frustration on a tree, punching and kicking it.
He felt that Xinyan was just an ungrateful wretch. Even if the family had wronged her, they had still raised her, and she showed no gratitude, even watching her biological father have their house torn down.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. His own father was wary of that ungrateful wretchâs fatherâs identity, but he wasnât afraid of him. No matter how special his status, he canât bully people like this. He didnât believe the police would ignore it.

The next day, Han Jingchen had breakfast and was getting ready to go to the Zhang Family to pick up the young lady.
Just as he was getting up, he heard a commotion outside: "Jingsong, whatâs happening outside?"
Su Jingsong opened the door and saw some police officers in uniform: "Comrade, we are from the township police station. Someone reported that you forcibly demolished a fellow villagerâs house yesterday."
Su Jingsong took out his work ID from his jacket pocket: "Comrade, this is my work ID."
After seeing the ID clearly, the police officers were somewhat surprised, but work still had to continue: "Comrade, we still need you to cooperate with us in an investigation."
Su Jingsong hadnât been gone long before the matter was resolved.
Han Jingchen saw him return: "Is it settled?"
Su Jingsong said: "The Yu Family really donât know whatâs good for them. Clearly, you have let them off the hook, yet they still come to cause trouble."
Han Jingchen, unhurried, walked outside: "I only went easy on them for Xinyanâs sake. Since theyâre asking for trouble, let them have it."
Su Jingsong naturally understood what Han Jingchen meant: "Okay, I understand."
On another side, Xinyan was saying goodbye to Granny Zhang: "Grandma, once I settle in Beijing, Iâll come back to get you."
Granny Zhang patted her hand: "Grandma is old. Coming over would only cause you trouble. Knowing you have a successful future puts my heart at ease. Study well."
Xinyan didnât say much more. She could understand Granny Zhangâs feelings, but caring for Granny Zhang was her lifeâs mission: "Grandma, youâre not a burden to me. Just wait for me to bring you back, wait for me to bring you back."
When Han Jingchen arrived at the Zhangâs, He Jinxuan and Xinyan were ready, as they were heading to the city together today.
In the afternoon, Han Jingchen and the others returned to Beijing, while He Jinxuan and the others returned to Sanyuan City.
Su Jingsong had already communicated with the people over in Sanyuan City, and for Xinyanâs household registration, she just needed to go over and change the household registration book.
Originally, Han Jingchen wanted Xinyan to go back to Beijing with him, but Xinyan said she still had many things to handle and would go to the capital ahead of the school start date.
Han Jingchen didnât want to be separated from his daughter, but he had a load of matters waiting for him, so he had to return to Beijing first to make preparations.
When they got to the city, Han Jingchen accompanied his daughter to buy a watch, a camera, and two sets of clothes. If Xinyan hadnât stopped him, he might have bought even more.
Xinyan naturally understood her fatherâs feelings: "Dad, if you buy too much, Iâll have to take it all to the capital, which is too much trouble. Once Iâm in the capital, you can accompany me shopping again."
Han Jingchen looked at his daughter with eyes full of affection: "Alright, Iâll listen to you."
Then he directly handed her an envelope: "Take this and use it. You canât refuse your dad."
Xinyan had to accept it: "Thank you, Dad."
It felt good to be pampered by her father.
After having lunch together, Han Jingchen reluctantly parted with his daughter: "Yanyan, come back to Beijing early and call Dad in advance. Iâll arrange for someone to pick you up."
