"Hey, Mom, I'm at work. Did something happen at home?" Lin Xiazhi felt a little panicked. She didn't know why, but her heartbeat was extremely fast.
Nie Qianru over there lowered her voice, and her words were still trembling: "Xia Zhi..."
Nie Qianru's voice was obviously frightened. Lin Xiazhi was shocked: "What's going on? I'm going back now."
"No, I know you are busy now. Besides, you can't help much even if you are here. Just concentrate on your work." Nie Qianru quickly hung up the phone.
But before hanging up, Lin Xiazhi still clearly heard the sound of thunder and banging over there, like something being smashed down.
Lin Xiazhi's face suddenly turned pale, and she put away her phone in a panic, ignoring Lu Xunyu who immediately packed her things: "Boss, I have to leave for a while now!"
Lin Xiazhi spoke extremely urgently, with a slight tremor in his words, which was completely different from Lin Xiazhi, who was usually reserved but calm.
"What happened?" Lu Xunyu frowned. He could tell that something must have happened to Lin Xiazhi.
"It's okay, I have some small matters at home. I'll go back and be back soon." Lin Xiazhi didn't care so much, packed up the documents, took the bag and rushed out.
Even before Lu Xunyu could speak again, Lin Xia's people had already arrived at the door. However, they had not even had time to step out.
His wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone: "I'll take you back."
"No, it's really not a big deal." Lin Xiazhi suddenly retracted his hand, as if he was electrocuted, and Lu Xunyu also felt a little unnatural on his face.
But he still said seriously: "You are so pale, but you are my employee after all. If something happens, who will I ask to do these chores?"
Lu Xunyu said this, but he couldn't hide the concern in his eyes. Lin Xiazhi shook his head: "It's really okay, I can do it myself!"
"This is my order as the boss, and you still want to refuse?" Lu Xunyu said with a hint of dissatisfaction after hearing these words.
"But your injuries are not completely healed yet. I can take care of it myself and will come back later." Lin Xiazhi said a little hastily.
After all, I was worried about my mother and was anxious to go back to deal with things there, but it was hard to refuse directly.
"I just have a slight injury on my head, and there is no external injury. If I lie on this hospital bed any longer, I'm afraid I will really get sick." Lu Xunyu felt unhappy.
No matter what, he wanted to go out with Lin Xiazhi. Lin Xiazhi was also a little helpless because of the entanglement: "Then I'll trouble Mr. Lu."
He said it was troublesome for Lu Xunyu, but after all, it was Lin Xiazhi who was driving. He was worried about the situation at home and at the same time worried about the situation at home.
Lin Xiazhi drove slowly, fearing that something might happen to Lu Xunyu's concussion. Lin Xiazhi was so anxious that some beads of sweat fell from his forehead.
Lu Xunyu was sitting in the passenger seat, staring at the driver, with a smile in his eyes: "Why is the car coming so slowly?! Is it a tortoise and a hare?"
"Mr. Lu, you can't move around now."
Lin Xiazhi frowned and kept talking, but in the end he still speeded up.
When they arrived at the place, Lin Xiazhi didn't even care about Lu Xunyu, and rushed out of the car without even taking the luggage. Her house was in a remote area, and now there were many people watching the excitement in front of the house.
"Get out of the way! Let me in!"
Lin Xiazhi struggled to push aside the crowd, and just when she stood at the door, the crisp sound of breaking porcelain sounded at her feet.
She couldn't help but freeze as bad memories came over her like an overwhelming force. Until her mother's low sobs sounded, Lin Xiazhi suddenly came back to her senses and stood firmly in front of Nie Qianru.
She stared coldly at the man in front of her, her eyes full of resentment and defensiveness: "Uncle, what are you doing? How did my mother and I feel sorry for you?!"
Even before arriving, Lin Xiazhi had thought that her uncle was here again.
In the early years, because of the family separation, this uncle had resentment towards their family, and now he often bullies their orphans and widowers.
"Hey, Xia Zhi is back? I heard that Xia Zhi is working in a big company now, so he must have a lot of salary, right?"
Lin Boqiang's eyes became greedy, and he looked at Lin Xiazhi's body. Lin Xiazhi suppressed his nausea and frowned.
"No, I don't have any money!"
Lin Xiazhi's face was ugly, but she protected Nie Qianru tightly, and Nie Qianru was trembling a little.
"No money?!" As Lin Boqiang asked, another glass vase exploded at the feet of the two of them, and Nie Qianru tightened her grip on Lin Xiazhi's wrist.
"Uncle, leave quickly! If you continue like this, don't blame me for calling the police!" Lin Xiazhi clenched his cell phone.
She stared coldly at the person in front of her, preventing him from taking another step forward. Lin Boqiang's face darkened visibly: "Call the police?!"
"Brother and sister, you are not being kind, but there is no point in calling the police for a family matter, right?" Lin Boqiang looked ugly, and his words were somewhat threatening.
Seeing this, Lin Xiazhi's eyes were still defensive, and he said coldly: "Uncle, let's not talk about feelings first. I smashed so many furniture in my house. I don't believe the police will ignore it!"
"Okay, Xia Zhi, you are more promising now, have you learned how to threaten your uncle, right?" Lin Boqiang also had a dark face.
He smashed things with his hands even more without scruples, and even smashed all the things on Lin Xiazhi, mother and daughter.
Lin Xiazhi quickly protected Nie Qianru, held the phone tightly, and said loudly: "I called the police!"
"Call the police?" Lin Boqiang grabbed the phone and threw it directly to the ground.
"Auntie, can you please call the police for me? Please!" Lin Xiazhi looked at the police station next door pleadingly.
On weekdays, they are relatively familiar with each other and can speak a few words, but it is just a matter of calling the police, so they can definitely help.
But Lin Boqiang was holding a fruit knife and staring fiercely at the people eating melons over there: "Let's see who dares to call the police today!"
The aunt next door had just taken out her mobile phone, but she froze there again. She looked at Lin Xiazhi with some embarrassment. Lin Xiazhi suddenly felt a little more desperate in her heart. No one dared to do so.
This was the case many times in the past, and Lin Xiazhi felt helpless in his heart. Lin Boqiang laughed when he saw this, and started rummaging around the room.
"Tell me, where did you put the money?!" Lin Boqiang refused.
But Lin Xiazhi still refused to give in, and just snorted: "If you don't have money, even if you demolish your home today, you still have no money! You can say you have nothing!"
Lin Xiazhi's face was full of disgust, and he stared at the villain in front of him fiercely. Lin Boqiang approached: "Smelly girl, am I giving you too much face?!"
As he spoke, Lin Boqiang raised his hand, but before he could touch a piece of Lin Xia's hair, someone held his wrist tightly, making him unable to move.
Lin Xiazhi closed her eyes tightly and waited for a long time, but the pain she imagined did not come.
