Chapter 16 The Decline of the Xiao Family Begins Today
"I knew the law enforcement bureau couldn't just sit idly by..."
When the Xiao family heard the director of the law enforcement bureau give the order, they thought that the other party was finally going to take action.
But as they watched, their expressions gradually froze.
The law enforcement officers who rushed over did not run towards Xiao Chen at all, but went straight to Xiao Yichen who was standing next to him.
At this moment, Xiao Yichen was half-dead and extremely weak. Before he could even understand what was happening, he was already shackled and bound hand and foot.
The cold muzzle of the gun pressed against the back of his head terrified him, making his body tremble.
"How could this be...?" Xiao Yichen looked at the Xiao family members with a bewildered expression, seeking an answer.
Weren't the Xiao family here to rescue him?
How could we let this happen?
After a moment of stunned silence, the Xiao family members quickly erupted into a commotion.
"What are you doing? You've arrested the wrong person!"
"What did Yi Chen do wrong? The culprit is Xiao Chen! He's the one who should be arrested!"
Xiao Yiyi and Xiao Shanshan were both anxious and tried their best to protect Xiao Yichen.
Of course, Lin Dong, the director of the law enforcement bureau, completely ignored them.
"Xiao Yichen, someone has reported you for drugging and raping a woman and framing someone else. Today, I, the director, will arrest you and bring you back to the law enforcement bureau for questioning!" Lin Dong said righteously.
As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Chen, changing his attitude to be very polite.
"Mr. Xiao Chen, please submit your evidence."
Xiao Chen smiled slightly and took out a USB flash drive.
"Xiao Chen, so it was you!" The Xiao family members' eyes blazed with fury, filled with uncontrollable hatred.
"So what if it was me?" Xiao Chen smiled faintly. "You were the ones who were heartless first. I'm just clearing my name of the false accusations."
Didn't the Xiao family want him to take the blame for Xiao Yichen?
He then personally escorted Xiao Yichen inside, letting him experience the hardships of prison.
"You bastard! How could you do such a thing? Putting the son of the true dragon in jail, you're trying to destroy the Xiao family!" Xiao Hongyuan was heartbroken.
"Whether the Xiao family is destroyed or not is none of my business," Xiao Chen said coldly.
The Xiao family felt as if they had swallowed a fly.
This was originally their attitude towards Xiao Chen, but now that they are experiencing it themselves, it is clearly unbearable.
Xiao Yichen was handcuffed and lifted up in a daze, ready to be sent into the prison van.
With a hint of satisfaction on his face, Xiao Chen handed the USB drive to Lin Dong.
The Xiao family members couldn't stand it any longer and immediately rushed out to block their way.
"Can't!"
"Lin Dong! Release my son Yichen at once! How can you arrest people like this?" Xiao Hongyuan shouted.
"Anyone who tries to take my son will have to step over me!" Qu Ying shouted resolutely, shielding Xiao Yichen with her body.
Xiao Yiyi and Xiao Shanshan stood in front, looking brave and resolute.
"Xiao Chen, if you really have the heart to watch all your blood relatives get into trouble, then hand over the things!" Qu Ying shouted angrily.
Xiao Chen frowned.
He was originally slow, but after hearing this, he threw the USB drive to Lin Dong.
The Xiao family members were so angry that their faces turned red.
"Obstructing law enforcement in handling cases will result in immediate execution!" Lin Dong said coldly, and with a wave of his hand, the gun barrel was pressed against the Xiao family members.
The Xiao family members turned pale with fright when they saw the law enforcement officers about to pull the trigger.
Xiao Yiyi and Xiao Shanshan, who had been fearless just moments before, found themselves involuntarily backing away.
Xiao Hongyuan just kept a gloomy face and didn't say anything more.
Qu Ying, who had just made a bold statement about protecting Xiao Yichen, was terrified when a gun was pointed at her head. She jumped up and ran far away.
"you……"
Xiao Yichen was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected that these people were just shouting loudly, but in reality, they were all afraid of dying.
All of this was within Xiao Chen's expectations.
He had long seen through the Xiao family, and his expression was full of sarcasm.
"Take him away!" Lin Dong raised his hand, and Xiao Yichen was escorted into the prison van.
The Xiao family members, with guns pointed at them, dared not speak and could only watch helplessly as Xiao Yichen got into the car.
"Dad, Mom, eldest sister, third sister, save me!" Xiao Yichen shouted loudly.
The Xiao family was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, but dared not move when a gun was pointed at them.
"My lords!"
Xiao Shanshan looked at the underworld bosses for help.
"Please, on my behalf, Xiao Shanshan, save my little brother! The Xiao family will definitely repay you afterwards!" she shouted with all her might, her face turning ashen.
The fact that the usually arrogant third young lady of the Xiao family was willing to lower herself and ask for help undoubtedly indicates that she had gone through a fierce internal struggle.
She shouted it out through gritted teeth.
Even Xiao Chen couldn't help but show a surprised expression.
But this only made him more disgusted and repulsed.
Xiao Shanshan used to despise and look down on her younger brother, never giving him a kind look.
"Please lend a helping hand, everyone. If I have offended you in the past, I will personally come to apologize!" Xiao Shanshan pleaded desperately.
Even so, the underworld bosses remained unmoved.
"Third Miss, I'm sorry, we're all here to watch the show today," the leader said jokingly.
"So even the arrogant Third Miss has to ask for favors. I must say, today's show was quite entertaining," the others chimed in.
Xiao Shanshan's face turned purple with anger.
The first time she humbled herself to ask for help, she was met with humiliation.
"Director Lin... I am the person involved. I don't blame Yi Chen at all. It was my own choice. Let's pretend this never happened. Please release him, okay?" Xiao Shanshan shouted at the director of the law enforcement bureau again.
The scene was completely silent.
Xiao Chen's face darkened upon hearing this.
His heart was churning, as if he were holding his breath, and his stomach was churning violently, making him feel extremely nauseous.
That Xiao Shanshan is truly despicable to the core!
Having a sister like that is a disgrace!
"I think Xiao Yichen should be physically castrated and made a rootless person," he said calmly.
"Xiao Chen, shut up!" Xiao Yiyi shouted angrily, and the Xiao family members all glared at him.
"Who do you think you are? You think you can deal with Yichen with just a word? What are you? Do you even have the right to speak?" Xiao Yiyi continued to curse.
"And who are you? You dare to speak?" Lin Dong coldly rebuked, several guns pointed at Xiao Yiyi's head, frightening her into silence immediately.
“Mr. Xiao Chen is right. This kind of beastly scoundrel should be castrated to prevent him from harming society again,” Lin Dong said with a smile.
The Xiao family members were stunned again, their panic visibly palpable.
"take away!"
After Lin Dong gave the order, the law enforcement officers escorted Xiao Yichen into the car, and then they left.
Seeing that they couldn't stop it, the Xiao family members' expressions changed drastically, and they were almost going crazy.
After the law enforcement bureau left, they stared at Xiao Chen with immense anger.
"Xiao Chen, look what you've done!" Xiao Hongyuan was the first to attack. "You've really grown bold, haven't you? Fine, you want to be an enemy of the entire Xiao family, huh? You're not worthy! Just wait and see who will have the last laugh!"
"From this day forward, my Xiao family will be your sworn enemy! Can you withstand all the power I, Xiao Yiyi, possess?"
"I, Xiao Shanshan, swear to heaven that I will make Xiao Chen's fate ten times more tragic than my brother's!"
"I don't have a son like you. Get as far away from me as possible from now on!"
……
They were united in their hatred of the enemy and made harsh threats, vowing to take revenge on Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen simply smiled and remained noncommittal.
Then, his gaze sharpened, and he said:
"I, Xiao Chen, am making this clear..."
"The decline of the Xiao family begins today!"
