Upon arriving in the United States, Xie Jinran did not go looking for Xie Chen right away. He went to the police station first.
Because the bail money had not been paid, Xie Yuchen could not be released on bail and could only remain in custody.
He tried calling home, but he could not get through at all.
All information had been cut off, as if he had been abandoned, until his third brother, Xie Jinran, appeared before him.
"Why did you only come now?!" Xie Yuchen asked excitedly. "Where are Mom and Dad?! Why haven't they paid the bail money?! Otherwise, I would've been out long ago!"
Xie Jinran sighed into the receiver from the other side of the glass. "It's a long story."
"What do you mean?! Just tell me! Are you trying to worry me to death?!" Xie Yuchen nearly roared.
"You already know about Dad's car accident. After that..."
As Xie Jinran spoke, he inwardly lamented how unpredictable life was.
How had the Xie Family suddenly ended up like this?
"Is Mom out of her mind?! She actually testified?! Will she not stop until she gets us all killed?!" Xie Yuchen was on the verge of breaking down. "And Dad—he actually ran away?! Could he really be that heartless? I don't believe it!"
"Whether you believe it or not, the facts are right in front of us," Xie Jinran said. "The Group has more and more creditors. If this continues, we can only file for bankruptcy. All the family's assets have been frozen. It's almost impossible to come up with the bail money."
Hearing that, Xie Yuchen's rigid body completely went limp. He muttered, "How did this happen? How did this happen?!"
"I'll try begging Little Chen and see if there's a good outcome," Xie Jinran
