The police questioned Yin Yin separately, and she wanted to be questioned as well. However, the policewoman who questioned the child was kind and spoke softly.

Ye Qingqing and Lu Mo's statements were roughly the same, and they all matched.

The older policeman who questioned Ye Qingqing had a stern gaze, like an X-ray that could see right through people. Ye Qingqing was a little afraid to look him in the eye, as she felt a bit guilty.

"Why didn't you contact me before? Why did you suddenly come over tonight?" the police officer asked.

“Something bad happened. We hadn’t been in touch for years, and I only found out tonight that my cousin was having a hard time, so I came to check on her. But when I got here, I saw that bastard Jiang Xingzhi beating my cousin. My cousin was covered in bruises. She’s been beaten every day for years, and the children are the same. They’re living worse than animals. Officer, I’m not lying. If you don’t believe me, go ask the neighbors. They can all testify to it,” Ye Qingqing said angrily.

"Since you knew Jiang Xingzhi had a criminal record, why did you still let him talk to Lu Qinghua alone?"

Ye Qingqing's heart skipped a beat, and she forced a look of deep regret. "I'm so regretful now. If I had known that bastard was such a scoundrel, I definitely wouldn't have agreed. I thought we were downstairs, and that bastard wouldn't dare to do anything. Who knew... sigh!"

She sighed for a while, then her expression turned indignant. "Officer, this really can't be blamed on my Qinghua. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered. That bastard strangled my cousin first, almost killing her. That's why she fought back. She usually wouldn't even dare to kill a chicken, but today she was really pushed to the limit."

Lu Mo and Lu Jianfeng gave similar accounts, which basically matched up. However, Jiang's father and mother insisted that Lu Qinghua deliberately stopped people and that Ye Qingqing was the instigator because Ye Qingqing had called Lu Qinghua out and talked to him for several minutes.

"You've been acting suspiciously, you must be plotting to harm my son, you'll get your comeuppance!" Jiang's mother cried and cursed.

Ye Qingqing sneered, "Nonsense! I was just advising Qinghua to get a divorce. You used Yinyin to blackmail my silly sister. She was afraid that Yinyin would suffer in your hands, so she didn't dare to get a divorce. I called her out to persuade her. How is that sneaky? Your family did something inhuman, and that's why you're getting your comeuppance today."

"Give me back my son...you will all die a horrible death..." Jiang's mother sat on the ground crying and screaming. She did not believe the doctor's words and was convinced that Jiang Xingzhi could not be saved.

"Why are you cursing your son? He's perfectly fine. The doctor told you himself that his injuries weren't serious. What are you crying about?" Ye Qingqing mocked.

Jiang's mother still didn't believe it and cried even louder. The police shouted at her, and she finally stopped sobbing and dared not make a fuss anymore.

The policewoman led Yin Yin out of the house, looking angry. She spoke in hushed tones with the other officers and rolled up Yin Yin's sleeves, revealing that her forearms were covered in bruises.

“She gets beaten every day, by men and old men alike. The little girl has developed psychological problems from all the beatings. She needs to see a psychologist.” The policewoman patted Yin Yin’s head with pity. What a pitiful child. No wonder Lu Qinghua was driven to such desperation.

If her child were abused like that, she definitely wouldn't be able to bear it either.

"Uncle, have some candy."

Yinyin sensed the tense atmosphere, her small body trembled, and she took out chocolates from her sleeve and offered them to the police officers in front of her in a flattering manner. This was a survival skill she had developed after being beaten so many times. No matter what, she was always trying to please people, but she still couldn't avoid being beaten.
