After five years on the run, she returns with two cute babies

If it’s not Join, then who else?!

I didn't expect that grandpa was so quick to act. He beat the man into this state just when he was about to go out to see him off.

Seeing Lilith's figure, Xiao Jincheng waved to her and said with a smile: "Lilith is back, come over and listen to how Join excuses himself."

Lilith's heart skipped a beat, not understanding what Xiao Jincheng meant by that. But she didn't dare to resist him, so she could only nervously walk to his side, not daring to look at Join across from her.

"Say what you just said again so Lilith can hear it too."

Join was so beaten that he couldn't tell his nose from his eyes. He struggled to open his eyes and looked at Lilith through the cracks. His expression was painful. He said, "Master, I was really wrong. I shouldn't have neglected my duty. Please forgive me!"

The smile gradually disappeared, and Xiao Jincheng snorted in a cold and ruthless voice: "You caused Xuan'er to suffer so much pain, it's impossible for me to forgive you without doing anything. You are not my Lilith, I have no reason to tolerate your mistakes!"

Lilith's face turned pale, and she looked at Xiao Jincheng nervously, afraid that he would say something next. But Xiao Jincheng just looked at Join fiercely, not even glancing at Lilith.

What does Xiao Jincheng mean? Did he discover something?

Lilith clenched her hands nervously, then looked at Xiao Jincheng cautiously and asked, "Grandpa, what are your plans for such a person?"

Xiao Jincheng said as a matter of course: "Of course, let him endure Xuan'er's pain ten times, a hundred times!"

Looking at Join on the ground, Lilith said, "Has he been beaten into this state? Does that count as accepting his punishment?"

"A few minor injuries are nothing. I'm going to make him remember the mistakes he made!" Xiao Jincheng looked at Join coldly, then ordered the people around him, "Cut off two of his fingers, and then fast for five days! Join, if you survive, you're lucky. But if you die, you're unlucky!"

Hearing this, Join looked at Xiao Jincheng in horror and begged in a pitiful voice: "Master, I have worked hard for the Xiao family for so many years. Even if I have no merit, I have worked hard. Please give me a way out!"

His gray eyes stared at Join emotionlessly. Xiao Jincheng said, "Since you've been in the Xiao family for so many years, it's unforgivable to make such a mistake! Tell me, did you do it on purpose, or was it unintentional?"

"Of course it was unintentional," Join desperately crawled towards Xiao Jincheng, begging bitterly, "I didn't expect the young master to be so seriously ill. If I had been more careful, I wouldn't have let the young master suffer! Master, you punish me, I accept it. But if you want to kill me for it, I won't admit it!"

Lilith, standing nearby, could tell that Join was planning to take the blame himself. But if death was the only way out for him, could he still hold back from giving himself up?

After taking a look at Join, Lilith made a decision in her heart.

"Grandpa, in my opinion, we should just teach Join a lesson. I don't think he meant to hurt Xuan'er on purpose."

"Then who do you think is the murderer behind this?"

Seeing Xiao Jincheng looking at her with a smile, Lilith felt a surge of panic in her heart.

Lilith cast her eyes on Join lying on the ground, trying to calm herself down. She analyzed, "Lilith was foolish. She thought this was just an accident and there was no conspiracy."

"Think about it, if someone really wanted to harm Xuan'er, why not use a low-key method instead of making a big fuss? Xuan'er's symptoms are so obvious, he would definitely seek treatment from a doctor immediately. How could he achieve his goal this way? Grandpa, in my opinion, this is Join's negligence that delayed Xuan'er's treatment."

Xiao Jincheng seemed to think Lilith's analysis made sense. His expression softened and he said, "You're right. No one would use such a stupid method to harm others."

Hearing this, Lilith and Join both breathed a sigh of relief.

But Xiao Jincheng didn't let Join go. Instead, he said, "Even if Join didn't do it on purpose, he still needs to be punished. Cut off his two little fingers and let him remember his mistake for the rest of his life!"

Seeing that Lilith was about to say something, Xiao Jincheng stared at her coldly and asked, "Why, do you think the punishment is too severe?"

Xiao Jincheng's words seemed to be spoken intentionally for Lilith to hear. She was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat, lowered her head, and dared not say another word.

The limp body was carried away. Join looked up at Lilith and found that the woman didn't dare to look at him at all. He was destined to not escape this disaster today!

After a while, she heard hoarse shouts. Lilith frowned, as if she could imagine the bloody scene.

"Lilith, what's wrong with you?"

Lilith raised her pale face and smiled. Just as she was about to say something, she felt her stomach churning.

Lilith ran to the side and retched a few times, covering her chest with her hands, looking very uncomfortable.

Xiao Jincheng stared at Lilith with hawk-like eyes and asked, "Are you tired these past few days? Go find a doctor to help you."

Lilith was afraid of being seen as a drug user, so she quickly shook her head and said, "I'm fine. I just haven't eaten well these past few days, and my stomach is a little uncomfortable. I'll be fine after a while."

After hearing what Lilith said, Xiao Jincheng didn't force her. He said a few more words of concern and then let someone push him away.

After Xiao Jincheng left, Lilith collapsed to the ground. She didn't know what was wrong with her. Even when she'd killed someone before, she'd never felt this helpless. Could it be because she hadn't touched a gun in so long?

Lilith struggled to stand up, not daring to look at the man who had just been punished. She held onto the wall and slowly walked out.

……

Thanks to Da Zhong's company, Xuan'er felt much better and recovered in just a few days.

Xiao Jincheng still felt sorry for Xuan'er and couldn't bear to keep him imprisoned any longer, so he allowed Xuan'er to go out for a walk, but he still had a lukewarm attitude towards Xuan'er. He wasn't as enthusiastic as he was at the beginning, nor as cold as he was later.

This made Da Zhong a little confused. He didn't know what Xiao Jincheng's attitude towards Xuan'er was.

In this regard, Xuan'er specially enlightened Da Zhong and told him that the people here formed alliances based on interests. Now, Xiao Jincheng didn't know how to use him, so he treated him coldly and left him aside, letting him fend for himself.

When Da Zhong heard Xuan'er say these cold words, he was shocked. He never expected that in just a dozen days, Xuan'er seemed like a different person.

Seeing Da Zhong looking at her in shock, Xuan Er asked, "What's that look in your eyes?"
