After saying that, Chu Peixian didn’t care about how Qi Miao was calling out to her from behind, and she didn’t look back either.
After resting in the hospital for a week, Qi Miao was formally arrested by the police.
She was charged with intentional injury.
Xia Yumo’s treatnt at the ti was well-docunted, and considering the severity of her injuries, Qi Miao was ultimately sentenced to ten years in prison.
On the day Qi Miao was sentenced, no one from the Qi family went to see her, and her plan to ask for leniency through Qi Ming ultimately failed.
As for Zhang Qin, who had been arrested separately earlier, she was charged with intentionally swapping a child and instigating others to poison Xia Yumo.
At last, she was sentenced to twenty years in prison for charges of intentional injury and maliciously abducting and selling children.
From that point on, Qi Miao was completely out of the lives of the Qi family mbers.
"Second Brother."
One day, Qi Ming ca downstairs and suddenly heard Xia Yumo calling him like this. His footsteps halted for a mont.
Ever since Xia Yumo returned to the Qi family, they had not been on good terms, and Xia Yumo had never sincerely called him Second Brother before.
This made Qi Ming think of his past behavior towards her, and his guilt deepened.
He walked down the staircase with an unnatural expression, trying to make his face look more gentle, and managed to force a smile.
However, because it was so unnatural, the smile looked awkward.
"What’s the matter?"
He asked.
Seeing Xia Yumo take a small bag out of her side pouch and hand it to him, she said:
"It’s been cold these past few days, and I made this specifically for you. It’s thick and warm, give it a try."
Qi Ming’s eyes brightened at the thought of Xia Yumo making sothing for him, and he seed flattered.
He had no idea how to apologize to her at first, but she took the initiative to reconcile with him, making Qi Ming feel increasingly embarrassed.
"Thank...thank you."
"You’re welco."
Chu Peixian, seeing her son and daughter getting along, looked at the bag in Qi Ming’s hands, curious, and said:
"Take it out and let’s see what your sister made for you."
"Okay."
Qi Ming eagerly took out the item that Xia Yumo had made for him.
The next second, the expectant smile on his face froze.
What he’d expected was a scarf knitted by his sister, but instead, it was a hat - and it was... green.
Not only did the smile on Qi Ming’s face stiffen, but so did Chu Peixian’s expression.
Gu Junhang knew that his wife had planned to give Qi Ming a hand-knit gift, but he too thought it was a scarf, not a green hat.
At that mont, his face also showed an embarrassed expression.
Qi Ming stared at the green hat for a while, and when everyone thought he would get angry, he just let out a helpless laugh.
He put the hat back in the bag, and still said to Xia Yumo, "Thank you, I will treasure it."
"You’re welco."
There was no anger in Qi Ming’s eyes. Instead, he looked completely indifferent. He didn’t mind the green hat Xia Yumo gave him, which was obviously ant to mock him.
He treated it as just an ordinary gift.
"It’s about ti. I have to go to work. Ah Ming, do you want to co with ?"
Qi Xiao stood up from the sofa and tried to help his younger brother out of the awkward situation without making a fuss.
"Sure."
Qi Ming nodded in agreent, "Mom, younger sister, brother-in-law, we’ll be going now."
