After that, Leng Xiaoyao didn't get involved anymore, but she had Wang Yiming watch over the situation. Wang Xiangyang and those people had to be sentenced. If they weren't, Wang Yiming could contact her at once. Even if she needed to turn to her connections for help, she was determined to put them in jail.

They had broken the law and would be imprisoned for several years. It was impossible for them to escape using connections. Leng Xiaoyao wouldn't allow it.

The next morning, Old Mrs. Wang called Wang Yiming. She wanted to ask him to not hold Wang Xiangyang responsible. However, Wang Yiming didn't answer her call because he didn't want her to find him. He wouldn't be soft-hearted about this case.

Old Mrs. Wang went to Wang Yiming's house, but his family had already left early in the morning to visit his wife's family.

She couldn't find Wang Yiming and cried in desperation. She couldn't find Wang Xiangyang at the police station either and could only go to see Zhao Shanchuan to continue crying. Zhao Shanchuan had had enough of her cries.

"I told you not to spoil Wang Xiangyang too much, but you wouldn't listen. Now he's been arrested by the police! How dare he kidnap his own niece? If he succeeded this time, he would squander all the money. Next time, he'll do something to the descendants of my family!" Zhao Shanchuan angrily scolded Old Mrs. Wang, thinking about it and feeling scared.

Since Wang Xiangyang dared to abduct Wang Yiming's daughter, he believed that one day, Wang Xiangyang would also attack the Zhao family.

It wouldn't just happen once.

"Impossible, Xiangyang won't attack the Zhao family. You're his uncle!" Old Mrs. Wang was afraid that Zhao Shanchuan would abandon her, so she defended Wang Xiangyang.

"Do you mean he can kidnap other people?" Zhao Shanchuan was so angry that he couldn't breathe normally. Old Mrs. Wang still didn't realize that she was wrong. How could he believe that Wang Xiangyang wouldn't attack the Zhao family?

Zhao Shanchuan was very disappointed.

"No, no, it's not…" Old Mrs. Wang immediately realized and hurriedly denied. "I know that Xiangyang made a mistake this time, but Yiming's child is fine. I just thought, maybe Yiming can let it go and not sue Xiangyang. I'll discipline Xiangyang in the future and make sure he doesn't do such foolish things again."

"Humph! It's not about whether Yiming can let it go or if Xiangyang will be fine. What he did is a crime, and it's the responsibility of the government to handle it. If it were your son who was kidnapped and harmed like this, would you still easily say to let it go? It's only because the victim is not your son that you can stand there and talk so casually," Zhao Shanchuan said. He knew Old Mrs. Wang very well. If anyone dared to treat her son like this, she would curse their whole family to die. Would she let it go? It was simply a joke.

It was true that she wouldn't, so when Old Mrs. Wang heard Zhao Shanchuan say that, she didn't know what to say.

"Am I supposed to just watch my son go to jail?" Old Mrs. Wang still couldn't accept it.

"Everyone has to pay the price for what they've done. No matter how you argue here, that's the result," Zhao Shanchuan said, ignoring Old Mrs. Wang.

Wang Xiangyang was someone who only dared to bully the weak and feared the strong. At first, he didn't admit it, but eventually he couldn't resist the pressure and confessed.

After he confessed, the police informed Wang Yiming. Because Wang Yiming was aware that it was Wang Xiangyang's scheme, he wasn't surprised. He just asked the officer who contacted him about how many years Wang Xiangyang would be sentenced to.

The police said it would be at least seven to eight years for such a crime.

Hearing that, Wang Yiming felt relieved.

Although he was also worried that Wang Xiangyang would seek revenge on him after being released, he couldn't tolerate his crime this time just because he was worried.

When that time came, he could only face it head-on.

As soon as Leng Xiaoyao walked out of the arrival gate, she saw Li Mochen. He was holding flowers in his hands. Leng Xiaoyao's heart beat faster at the sight.

It was still quite surprising that he could be romantic!

"These are for you, congratulations on becoming the top scorer in the National College Entrance Examination." Li Mochen handed the flowers to Leng Xiaoyao.

Leng Xiaoyao didn't act coy and accepted them. "Thank you."

After taking the flowers, she noticed there was a box inside. Leng Xiaoyao looked at Li Mochen in surprise.

Li Mochen smiled, took out the box, and opened it. There was a beautiful bracelet that caught Leng Xiaoyao's eye. "Do you like it?"

Leng Xiaoyao's eyes lit up. It was a gorgeous bracelet.

It looked very valuable at first glance, but there wasn't a logo on the box, so she didn't know what brand it was.

"This is too expensive…" Leng Xiaoyao said, unsure whether to accept it or not. After all, she and Li Mochen hadn't formally started dating yet!

Even if they were really dating, she couldn't accept such an expensive gift.

"This was specially customized for you, with your name on it. So this bracelet belongs only to you. If you don't want it, do you want me to throw it away? It will hurt my heart." Seeing Leng Xiaoyao hesitate, Li Mochen spoke with a pitiful tone, as if he was being rejected.

"Ah!" Leng Xiaoyao was surprised. It was specially customized, and with her name on it?

This kind of customization couldn't be done in just a few days. Li Mochen must have prepared it long ago.

Suddenly, Leng Xiaoyao felt moved.

"Ok, I'll take it!" Since her name was engraved on it, how could she refuse? Did she really want Li Mochen to throw it away? She didn't want to waste such a precious gift!

She could buy him something of equal value later.

"I'll put it on for you." Li Mochen was happy and immediately put the bracelet on Leng Xiaoyao.

"Thank you." Leng Xiaoyao thanked him and was very satisfied with the bracelet.

"No need to thank me," Li Mochen said. He felt that it was unnecessary.

For him, Leng Xiaoyao was his partner, so he didn't want to be too formal.

Leng Xiaoyao didn't say anything. She had already thanked him.

It was dinner time, so Li Mochen took Leng Xiaoyao to eat first, then they went back to the Hanlin Manor.

"Where are you planning to go tomorrow?" Li Mochen asked.

"Let's go to the construction site first!" Leng Xiaoyao said. She came to the capital city just to see Li Mochen. Now that she was here, there was really nothing else she wanted to do!

"Well, is there any place you want to go?" Li Mochen asked.

"I'm not familiar with the capital city." Leng Xiaoyao pouted.

"Then I'll take you around tomorrow?" Li Mochen asked.

"Sure." Leng Xiaoyao answered.

Li Mochen followed Leng Xiaoyao back to her home in Hanlin Manor and stayed until around 10 pm before he went back to his own home.

Although he didn't want to leave, it wasn't appropriate to stay any longer.

Not to mention that Leng Xiaoyao hadn't agreed to be his girlfriend yet. Even if they were together, he couldn't have such thoughts so soon. It would just scare Leng Xiaoyao away.
