"Sister is very generous. No matter what, the Qian family owes you a favor. If you need any help in the future, please feel free to come to us."
Qian Min felt relieved; Qin Shi wouldn't retaliate against her, and Su Chang'an was just being presumptuous.
Qin found Qian Min's behavior inexplicable. She didn't hate Qian Min, but she didn't like her either.
She couldn't possibly ask Qian Min for help. The Qian family were people who would do anything for profit; if she asked him for help, she'd probably die even faster.
"Miss Qian, please come in."
Qin said something indifferently and then turned and went back to the kitchen.
Qian Min then walked towards the main room.
Qin Jin'an was drinking chicken soup inside the house.
The gray mouse got a chicken's head and was gnawing on it in the corner.
After Qian Min came in, she offered to pay, but Qin Jin'an didn't take it. Instead, he smiled at Qian Min and said, "It's not enough."
Qian Min was somewhat surprised: "Isn't the third divination 66 taels?"
Qin Jin'an looked at Qian Min and said, "If you want a solution, it will cost six thousand taels."
Qian Min was shocked for a moment, but quickly nodded in agreement: "Okay, tell me how to solve this. I don't have any silver notes on me, but I'll bring them to you tomorrow."
"Does he still have a chance to turn things around? Do they even have a chance?"
Qian Min voiced the question that had been bothering her.
Su Chang'an kept pressing her about when she would start a business. Qian Min knew that Su Chang'an wanted money, but she hadn't given in yet, waiting to calculate it again today before making a decision.
Qin Jin'an nodded, looked at Qian Min, and then said, "No, those who do many evil deeds will surely perish. None of them have a chance anymore."
The scumbag father is narrow-minded. With her divine protection, all the crises he encounters will automatically lie dormant. She can only protect him and help him rise to prominence, but she cannot change his character.
Her scumbag father would abandon her and her mother when he was at his most triumphant. He was a selfish person by nature, and he would abandon them whenever he felt they were no longer useful.
He doesn't put effort into maintaining any relationship, whether it's with family, friends, or children.
Because of his character, he will soon lose everything after the loss of divine fortune.
The two uncles were in a similar situation, which is why they ended up like this.
She can take back what she gave away, but she cannot take away what they originally had.
"I see."
Qian Min gave up after hearing Qin Jin'an's words.
"If you want to minimize the cost, then keep an eye on that scumbag dad. When he shows his true colors, just grab him. But be careful though."
After Qin Jin'an finished speaking, she smiled at Qian Min. Human nature is selfish, and she thought she had learned a little more. However, she still adhered to her principles and did not actively harm others to add to her sins.
Good and evil are not absolute; she will try her best to balance them.
Qian Min's eyes lit up; she understood.
"Thank you, little immortal. I understand. I won't bother you any longer. I'll have my maid bring the silver notes." Qian Min stood up, gave Qin Jin'an a graceful bow, and walked out with a deep gaze and a determined look.
There is a fatal flaw about Su Chang'an that she is unaware of, and it will be very dangerous for her to get closer to this truth.
She didn't know exactly what would happen, and Qin Jin'an had no intention of telling her.
Qian Min knew that Qin Jin'an would not reveal any more information, and as long as she caught Su Chang'an by the tail, she could find the best opportunity to escape. However, Qian Min couldn't figure out what Su Chang'an was hiding from her.
Qin Jin'an watched Qian Min's retreating figure and skipped and hopped towards the kitchen.
She hugged Qin's leg: "Mother, what delicious food did you make for me?"
Qin was frying meatballs. She smiled gently and said, "I'm making crispy bone meatballs for you, your favorite."
Because Qin Jin'an likes spicy food, all the ingredients Qin's family makes are only mildly spicy. If they are too spicy, the child's stomach may not be able to handle it, but if they are not spicy, the child will not like to eat them. Qin's family has found a balance.
"Thank you, Mother."
Qin Jin'an stared at the oil pan, his mouth already watering.
The meatballs were ready, and Qin Jin'an picked one up and ate it slowly.
Madam Qin looked at her tenderly, her eyes overflowing with love.
"Honey, will his bad behavior affect you? He's your father, and we don't need to be afraid of him anymore. You can't do anything that will hurt yourself, okay?"
Qin spoke gently, "Qian Min is here again. Is she trying to deal with Su Chang'an?"
Qin didn't care that Su Chang'an was living a miserable life, but she was afraid that it would affect her precious baby.
"Mom, don't worry, I understand. I didn't do anything I couldn't do. I will grow up healthy and be your good boy for life."
Qin Jin'an smiled, feeling an immense warmth beside the Qin family.
"Miss Qian was worried that we would retaliate against her, but she won't worry about that after this. She's going to give me six thousand taels later. Mother Qian, please use this to help those in need."
Qin Jin'an explained to Qin Shi that the Qian family would do anything for profit, and she was doing this to eliminate any future troubles.
However, people can change, and she doesn't know if there will be any other grudges in the future.
All she knew was that her entanglement with her scumbag father would end with Qian Min.
"good."
Qin was relieved. She carefully scooped out the golden meatballs one by one and set them aside. They were crisp and tender when eaten now, but if they were cooled and then cooked, they would be chewy and springy.
After eating a few meatballs, Qin Jin'an went to the yard to play with his bamboo dragonfly.
The bamboo dragonfly flew out of the yard, and she ran out to pick it up.
Just then, I saw a figure running away quickly.
Qin Jin'an only saw a back view, and she thought to herself that everyone was running to walk because of the cold weather.
A gray squirrel carrying a bamboo dragonfly came to her side.
"Squeak—"
Fish Treasure, can you make it fly a little higher?
The gray rats loved playing with Qin Jin'an, but unfortunately, they only visited this house once in a long while.
Qin Jin'an nodded, happily taking the bamboo dragonfly back to the yard. She rubbed it in her palms, preparing to make the bamboo dragonfly fly higher.
Qin was cooking, occasionally peeking out to glance at Qin Jin'an.
...
In a dark alley, a man looked around to make sure there was nothing amiss before entering the alley and going through the back door into the house.
Two people were hiding in the empty house. When the man returned, they asked, "Sun Wu, have you found that place?"
"Does she live there?"
They gathered together, waiting for Sun Tzu's answer.
Sun Wu nodded and then said, "They live there, just the mother and daughter. But they don't stay there often. We need to wait for the best opportunity to make our move and make sure we succeed on the first try."
After Sun Tzu finished speaking, everyone lowered their heads. The faint firelight illuminated their faces, and it was easy to see that they all felt guilty.
“We have no choice but to do this. Blame it on her good-for-nothing father. If he hadn’t been so cowardly, we wouldn’t have had to flee our homes. They specifically asked for this girl, so they probably won’t take her life. They said they’d withdraw their troops once they caught her. We’re doing this for the sake of the people of both countries. Zhao Long, Li Hu, if you don’t want to fight, go back. Don’t drag me down at this crucial moment.”
Sun Wu gritted his teeth. It was indeed despicable to lay a hand on a five-year-old girl, but they were doing it to survive.
