<h4>Chapter 1031: Her Child Had Grown Up</h4>
The two maids gossiped in hushed whispers while Han Xue went straight up to her room and locked her parents out.
She felt as though her mind was still drawing aplete nk after undergoing three consecutive interrogations. She couldn’t even remember how did responded to the police officers’ questions and whether she had revealed any important clues by ident.
However, she was certain that she had been released from the police station because the police stillcked evidence. If the police had sufficient evidence, they would have already locked her up in prison.
She felt as though her head was spinning and fell straight onto her bed.
Her gaze was nk and unfocused and all she could think about was the scene from the police station.
They had asked her many, many questions and the female police officer looked so fierce, as though she wanted to eat her up. The female officer had been simply terrifying.
Han Xue kept running through the earlier interrogation process in her mind until her mind was exhausted and she fell into a deep sleep.

The children had finished their performances in school, so He Xiyan went to pick Xi Xi up from her ss, then went to Yuan Yuan’s ss to pick him up.
She was proud of both her children today because they did really well, especially Xi Xi who managed toplete her dance performance in spite of her injury.
“Kids, let’s go out for a good meal today. What do you feel like having?” He Xiyan asked as she led her children to the garage.
Xi Xi immediately shook her head because she was not interested in dining out.
Yuan Yuan said happily, “Mom, I want pizza.”
Xi Xi said, “You could ask the chefs at home to make that for you.”
Yuan Yuan shook his head and said, “The pizza made by the chefs didn’t taste that great. I had requested for pizza once and it was terrible.”
He Xiyan was speechless.
She was already used to her children’s bickering. It was almost noon and she was feeling a little peckish, so she guessed that her children must be hungry too.
She drove to a restaurant that served western cuisine nearby.
The moment she stepped into the restaurant, she realized that it waspletely packed and almost every table was full, so they could only take the seat upstairs in the big hall.
She looked at the menu on the table after they were seated. There was no waiter attending to them because this restaurant employed a QR code method of cing orders through one’s mobile phone.
He Xiyan ordered a pizza, sd, fruit juice, and steak.
Xi Xi was always very reluctant to dine outside but she still brought her children out because she knew that her children would have to grow up one day, so they couldn’t possibly be cooped up at home all day. Instead, they must get used to dining out.
He Xiyan sliced a small piece of steak and put it on her daughter’s ce as she said cajolingly, “Xi Xi, why don’t you have some of this? The food here is pretty good. Look, there are so many people eating here.”
Xi Xi used her tiny fork and ate the piece of steak that her mother had ced on her ce. Then, she took a small slice of pizza.
Yuan Yuan was ravenous and dropped his usual habit of chewing everything slowly before he swallowed. This time, he ate extremely quickly and polished off two slices of pizza in an instant.
“Mom, you should have some too,” Yuan Yuan said when he noticed that his mother was just staring at them eat without touching her food. He quickly ced a slice of pizza onto his mother’s te/
He Xiyan smiled and she felt very touched.
She was touched that her child already knew how to show care and concern toward his mother.
They ate happily and their amicable atmosphere was broken when her phone rang.
He Xiyan dug out her phone and saw that it was from andline. Her caller ID showed that it was from a police station in Ye City.
She quickly picked up the call when she remembered that she had made a police report recently.
