Chapter 838: Chapter 838: There are Wounds on the Neck Chapter 838: Chapter 838: There are Wounds on the Neck She reached out to touch it, and immediately grimaced in pain.

“What happened?!” Chai Xiyang hurriedly checked her neck.

On the back side of her neck was a scratch, the skin broken, with traces of fresh blood seeping out.

Qiao Ning was injured when the robber snatched the necklace, scratching her skin.

After buying a bandage at the convenience store, Chai Xiyang carefully applied it to her.

“Does it still hurt?” he asked with concern.

Qiao Ning shook her head, “It doesn’t hurt anymore, it’s just a minor injury. Let’s go, we should head back, first to pick up Yifan from my uncle’s place, the little guy is probably still waiting for us.”

“All right!” Chai Xiyang tightened his grip on her hand and led her away.

Once in the car, Chai Xiyang was about to start the vehicle but couldn’t resist glancing at Qiao Ning’s wound again.

He didn’t know why he was so drawn to it, feeling a strangely familiar sensation.

Why did it feel familiar?

Chai Xiyang puzzled over this question all the way, while Qiao Ning had already leaned back in her seat, dozing off.

“I’ve got it!” Suddenly, Chai Xiyang slammed on the brakes, and Qiao Ning was jolted awake!

“What’s wrong?!” she asked anxiously and uneasily, fearing Chai Xiyang might have hit someone with the car.

But he excitedly grabbed her shoulders and said, “Qiao Ning, it’s actually great that you got robbed today, really great!”

Qiao Ning: “…”

Chai Xiyang realized he misspoke and chuckled, “I don’t mean it like that, I just suddenly remembered something.”

“What is it?” Qiao Ning asked curiously.

Chai Xiyang stared at her injured spot and his tone darkened, “I suddenly remembered, the day after Zhang Meimei’s accident, Lin Xinxin had a wound on her neck too.”

Qiao Ning didn’t catch on, “So what…”

As she spoke, she suddenly realized.

“Are you saying…”

Chai Xiyang nodded, “Yes, it’s very likely! I’m going to call Jingheng right now…”

Chai Xiyang was true to his word and, regardless of the late hour and people’s need for rest, he made the call without hesitation.

What could he do? He was a prosecutor with significant authority, and this was a matter only he could handle!

Jingheng, upon hearing his suspicion, immediately set out with his team.

This night was destined to be an extraordinary one.

…

The next day was Saturday, coincidentally Zhang Minwei’s birthday.

Besides hosting a birthday feast, he was also going to announce Lin Xinxin’s identity at the party.

From then on, Lin Xinxin would be renamed Zhang Xinxin and become the sole heir to the Zhang Family!

Dressed in an exquisite haute couture gown, Lin Xinxin stood in front of the mirror, very pleased with her noble and beautiful appearance.

Several servants flattered her, “Miss, you look truly beautiful today, sure to be the prettiest person here.”

“Miss has inherited the master’s lineage, naturally looking noble…”

Lin Xinxin curled her lips slightly, her expression tinged with disdain as she turned to leave.

She was about to become the sole heir of the Zhang Family, these servants were really beneath her notice!

The Zhang family hosted the banquet at their private villa.

Many people had already arrived.

As Lin Xinxin appeared, she attracted many gazes…

Many people were already aware of her identity, so everyone was curiously watching her.

Lin Xinxin wore an elegant smile and slowly descended the stairs.

Inside, she greatly relished the feeling of being the center of attention…

Although today was Zhang Minwei’s birthday party, she knew she was the real star of the event!
