It is now afternoon, the sky is about to darken, and with no one else from the Li Family, Xie Wanqing is not at ease letting Chen Xixi go back alone, so she keeps her at home.
She promises to accompany her to the government office to inquire the next day.
That night, the two sisters sleep on the same bed. Chen Xixi wakes up several times in fright.
Xie Wanqing pats her shoulder and comforts her: "Everything will be fine. They say that the new prefect of Bianzhou governs with integrity, and with the forthcoming autumn exams, he will certainly personally oversee them, not allowing any miscarriage of justice under his jurisdiction."
She can understand how helpless Chen Xixi feels.
She had finally escaped from the Chen Family and was leading a peaceful and ordinary life, with a kind mother-in-law, a considerate husband, and a child on the way. It was supposed to be the happiest time, yet such a major incident occurred.
