"Whimper... whimper..."

Xia Beixuan let out an unbearably heartrending wail.

But since his mouth was gagged, he couldn’t make any more noise.

Yin Tian stood up and looked at Xia Beixuan with a cold gaze.

The blood, due to the severed hand, had quickly pooled into a small puddle beneath Xia Beixuan.

"Why must you... keep provoking me time and time again!"

Yin Tian let out a cold sneer, then turned his back on Xia Beixuan without another thought and walked towards the exit of the abandoned factory.

Outside the factory.

Su Qinwei was also somewhat at a loss, standing there.

She could see that there were many people around, all watching her.

Although those people didn’t make any move.

But after what had just happened, even without them speaking, she still felt an overwhelming sense of fear.

As Su Qinwei stood there, not knowing what to do, Yin Tian finally came out of the abandoned factory.

"Yin Tian..."

Su Qinwei let out a soft cry as if she had seen her savior and quickly ran to Yin Tian’s side, clutching the hem of his clothes, visibly trembling.

"Don’t be afraid."

Yin Tian said softly, smiling gently at Su Qinwei, then turned his head to look at the people guarding the factory entrance, "Did Qiao send you?"

The people nodded slowly.

"Go in and clean up the place,"

Yin Tian ordered, his voice unnaturally cold, "And by the way, take Xia Beixuan to the Xia Family."

"Yes."

One person who looked like the leader respectfully responded, and then those guarding the outside all sprang into action.

They rushed into the abandoned factory.

Soon, wails and cries for help could be heard from within.

Yin Tian, however, seemed to have lost interest in the matter.

He walked away from the place with Su Qinwei, leaving it far behind.

Yin Tian brought Su Qinwei straight to the hospital.

Through the window, Su Qinwei could see Xia Nianbing’s pitiful state.

Her eyes flickered, clearly not expecting Xia Nianbing to be so badly injured.

After a while, Su Qinwei guiltily looked up at Yin Tian, "It’s my fault... If I hadn’t called her... Miss Xia wouldn’t have been injured like this..."

Yin Tian reached out and gently patted Su Qinwei’s head, "This has nothing to do with you; it’s just that Nianbing’s fate was to suffer this calamity. She will be fine as long as she gets through it."

Although Yin Tian was consoling Su Qinwei, she still felt terrible inside.

She didn’t go into the ward to visit Xia Nianbing.

Given Xia Nianbing’s condition, entering the room would seem more like gloating than paying a visit; it was better to watch from a far distance, which at least offered Xia Nianbing a final mark of respect.

Yin Tian said nothing but walked aside, staring at Su Qinwei’s retreating figure, somewhat lost in thought.

Not much later, Xia Dongliu hurried into the hospital from outside.

His face bore signs of exhaustion, clearly worn out because of Xia Nianbing’s condition.

However, in Xia Dongliu’s eyes, along with the fatigue, there was also panic.

Xia Dongliu took quick strides over to Yin Tian and asked in a grave voice, "I heard... you beat up Xia Beixuan?"

Yin Tian nodded slowly, "He did wrong and had to be taught a lesson."

If it weren’t for his relationship with Xia Nianbing, he would have never let Xia Beixuan off so easily.

Upon hearing Yin Tian’s words, the look of worry on Xia Dongliu’s face deepened, "You’ve stirred up big trouble now!"

"Although Xia Beixuan has been stripped of his status as heir, he is still very much doted on in the Xia Family."

"You’ve broken his arm and had him sent back to the Xia Family; this is seen as a blatant provocation in their eyes!"

Xia Dongliu looked seriously at Yin Tian, "The Xia Family is furious and has demanded that I hand you over, and furthermore, Xia Beixuan’s fiancée’s family also wants an explanation from you."

"Xia Beixuan has a fiancée?"

Yin Tian exclaimed in surprise.

Could it be that Xia Beixuan’s fiancée agreed to his philandering ways?

"Yes."

Xia Dongliu nodded, "And her family is quite powerful in the province. The marriage arrangement was made when the Xia Family was still influential; but as the Xia Family’s fortunes waned, her family became reluctant to let their daughter marry Xia Beixuan."

"However, the girl is very fond of Xia Beixuan, and that’s the only reason the engagement has been kept intact. Now that she’s heard of Xia Beixuan’s injury, she’s making a fuss, wanting her family to avenge Xia Beixuan."

"As expected..."

Yin Tian let out a sigh, "Even a scoundrel can have someone who truly likes him."

"What’s the time for these words?"

Xia Dongliu looked at Yin Tian with an expression of helplessness and then said, "Get ready to leave this place first."

However, Yin Tian shook his head.

"I’m afraid it’s too late to leave now..."
