Qiao Wanwan was startled, "What's wrong with you!"

Qin Shujun was speechless, but she still managed to pull Xiao Jiu's hand into her arms, as if afraid that he would be taken away by someone!

Qiao Wanwan hurriedly stepped forward and took her hand.

"You...you mustn't touch me!" Qin Shujun said with difficulty, "I won't allow...I won't allow you to take my child away!"

"I won't take advantage of someone in distress, especially not in front of the child!" Qiao Wanwan pulled her hand forcefully. "Don't move, let me take your pulse!"

Qin Shujun hadn't expected her to know medicine. Judging from her appearance, she was only in her early twenties, and Qin Shujun didn't think she had any particularly outstanding medical skills.

But seeing that she didn't seem to want to take the child, he stopped resisting.

She needs to buy herself some time and then figure out a way to get away with Xiao Jiu!

While taking her pulse, Qiao Wanwan frowned and said, "It's a heart condition she was born with. She's weak and can't do any physical labor or overexertion."

Qin Shujun was taken aback, not expecting that she could know her condition just by taking her pulse!

Qiao Wanwan instructed Jiang Dong, who was standing nearby, "Bring me silver needles."

"Yes, madam."

When Qin Shujun saw her take out the silver needles, she panicked and exclaimed, "What are you trying to do!"

While disinfecting the silver needles, Qiao Wanwan said, "Don't worry, if I wanted you to die, you would be dead by now. Your heart is not receiving enough blood, and I'm using silver needles to help relieve it, otherwise your life would be in danger."

Qin Shujun was still worried. "No... I need to call an ambulance. I can't let you get an injection!"

Qiao Wanwan didn't waste any more words with her, "Jiang Dong, hold her down!"

"Yes, madam."

Jiang Dong raised his hand and summoned two bodyguards who restrained Qin Shujun.

"What are you doing? Stop! Stop right now!"

Qiao Wanwan picked up the needle and said, "All men, close your eyes."

Zhan Jingting turned and left, while the bodyguard turned his head away and closed his eyes.

Eleven raised her hand to cover Xiao Jiu's eyes, and immediately closed her own eyes as well.

Qin Shujun was held down tightly and could only watch helplessly as Qiao Wanwan undressed her and administered acupuncture!

Qin Shujun gritted her teeth and said, "Qiao Wanwan, if I die here, I'll haunt you even as a ghost! Qiao Wanwan!"

Qiao Wanwan didn't speak, focusing on administering the acupuncture.

After a short while, Qin Shujun's voice gradually weakened, because she found that as she received acupuncture, the tightness in her chest had eased considerably!

She was almost out of breath and felt like she was about to faint, but now she can breathe much more easily and her mind is gradually becoming clearer!

Qiao Wanwan put away the silver needles and straightened her clothes. "Alright, but I suggest you go to the hospital for a full check-up as soon as possible. You must take medication to control your condition, otherwise it will only get worse."

Qin Shujun didn't know what to say, "...I was judging you by my own petty standards, thank you."

“One thing at a time, I can’t watch you die in front of me,” Qiao Wanwan said. “But I absolutely cannot let go of the child.”

Qin Shujun was helped to sit on the sofa by her bodyguard. Her face, which had regained some color, was full of determination. "I am very grateful to you for saving me just now, but I will never back down when it comes to Xiao Jiu. He is my child, and I will not hand him over to anyone!"

The two women faced off, the atmosphere tense and ready to clash!

There was quite a commotion outside the door, but no one came in.

A short while later, Qin Shujun's phone rang.

She took her phone out of her bag, her face lighting up with joy. She quickly swiped to answer the call, "Dad... what did you say? No! I will never hand over Xiao Jiu unless I die!"

She hung up the phone in a panic.

Jiang Dong walked in and said, "Mrs. Zhao, the Zhao family's bodyguards have just arrived, but we have already taken them all into custody."

Qin Shujun's face paled. She looked at Qiao Wanwan sitting opposite her and said, "Miss Qiao, I believe you won't forcibly take the children away. Could you ask the two children to leave for a moment? I have something I want to say to you alone."

Qiao Wanwan didn't hesitate, "Jiang Dong, take the two children out first and take good care of them."

"Yes, madam."

Jiang Dong quickly took the two children's hands and left, closing the door behind him.

Qin Shujun clutched her chest and said sadly, "Miss Qiao, I admit that the moment I saw you on TV, I guessed that Xiao Jiu was related to you. You two look very alike, especially in your expressions. Then I searched for your photos online, and the more I looked, the more I thought you looked like me."

“But you never thought of contacting me, did you?” Qiao Wanwan said coldly. “You just wanted to possess the child.”

"He is my child..."

"He's not!" Qiao Wanwan couldn't hide her anger. "One morning five years ago, he was abandoned at the gate of the orphanage. You happened to be passing by, stopped your car to check on him, and then secretly took him away!"

"You never thought about helping him find his biological parents because your illness doesn't allow you to have children, but you wanted a child, so you took him back and kept him for yourself!"

"Who says I can't have children? I've had children before!" Qin Shujun broke down in tears. "But I wasn't a good mother. My health was poor, which affected my child's health. He didn't even make it to his 100-day celebration before leaving me..."

As a mother of three, Qiao Wanwan couldn't bear to hear such words and felt heartbroken. "I sympathize with your situation, but have you ever thought about the child you took away? He also has biological parents. If his biological parents can't find him, they will suffer just as much as you would if you lost your child!"
