Chapter 1245: Who Instructed Them?

The old man’s expression was not pleasant speaking of this incident.

Due to the problem of Xia Xibei’s birth, there was no time to deal with the two young people who had destroyed the spirit plants.

Now, Xia Xibei was an ironclad Qi family member, so naturally she couldn’t be aggrieved.

Besides, Xia Xibei had just found out the plant-murderers and cleared her name.

Just the thought of someone using this method to frame an innocent kid put the old man in a bad mood.

Soon, the two culprits were called in.

The two dropped their heads, their bodies shaking slightly.

They didn’t expect that the matter would be exposed so quickly, and now they had to face the trial of the patriarch!

They were shaking like sieves when they thought of the outcome.

Looking at the two men’s abject appearance, the old man became even more furious and slapped the table.

“Tell me, who told you to do this?”

Once these words came out, the two men’s legs went weak and they knelt down.

The old man’s authority was not something they could fight.

Moreover, the matter had already been revealed, if they didn’t talk, they didn’t dare to think about their fate.

So, they immediately opened their mouths.

“It was0 Qi Xin who told us to do it!”

“Right! It was Qi Xin who told us to do it! She told us to destroy the spirit plant, and then- What happened after could be left to her.”

“We were just following orders!”

The two cried out with a sniffle and a tear.

“Did Xinxin do it?”

The faces of the old man, Qi Zhi’an, and his wife all darkened.

Qi Zhiqiang got agitated, “How could Xinxin do such a thing? It’s too much! She even destroyed the family’s spirit plants!”

The old man cast a glance towards him, “All right, you shut up! No one needs your opinion!”

Being glared at by the old man, Qi Zhiqiang shrank his neck, pursing his mouth a little reluctantly.

Even though Qi Xin had made mistakes, she was still more favored than him.

This was how unfairly he had been treated.

However, he soon perked up.

Xia Xibei was his daughter! When the time came, it would be him who was favored by the old man!

He would gain power through his daughter!

Maybe in the end, he could even be the head of the Qi family!

Thinking of the great outcome, his face couldn’t help but show a silly smile.

Looking at Qi Zhiqiang’s expression, Xia Xibei couldn’t help but avert her eyes in disgust.

This was her biological father?

No way!

After what happened to Xia Jun before, Xia Xibei put a question mark on Qi Zhiqiang’s identity.

The feeling that Xia Jun gave her before was similar to Qi Zhiqiang’s now, as both of them made her feel very uncomfortable.

They both looked at her the same way, treating her like a cash cow.

If she was still a young girl who needed to be raised and cared for by her parents, maybe she wouldn’t have expressed her discontent even if she felt this way.

Now, however, she didn’t have time to tolerate them.

“Did Xinxin do this?” Qi Zhi’an was also greatly shocked. “Why would she do that?!”

Ling Xiao patted his hand in comfort.

Ling Xiao kind of figured out why Qi Xin did it before, because she misunderstood!

“Can’t we just call Qi Xin in and ask her?” Qi Zhiqiang suggested.

“Okay, I have an idea of what’s going on. You can leave now!”

The old man gave him a blank look and was about to kick him out.

“I have to leave?”

Qi Zhiqiang pointed at himself, not daring to believe.

“Get out!”

Qi Zhiqiang immediately looked at Xia Xibei.

Xia Xibei didn’t pay any attention to him.

“Still not leaving?” The old man’s face sank.

Qi Zhiqiang went out reluctantly and Qi Xin came in.
