When Qin's father pointed at Jian Er, he didn't react much, but when he pointed at Qin Yune, he reached out and grabbed his finger, twisting it gently.
His gaze was so indifferent, as if he were looking at a dead man, as he coldly and sharply said, "If you don't want your hand, you can say so, and I can help you! But don't point your filthy finger at her!"
The father's face contorted instantly from the intense pain in his finger as he cried out, "Ah—it hurts, it hurts, it hurts... You unfilial daughter, I should have just smashed you against the wall back then, it would have been better than giving birth to you! I shouldn't have brought you back!"
Even in such pain, it couldn't stop him from cursing and swearing.
Qin's mother and Qin Huai immediately stepped forward, trying to pry Jian Er's hands off, but Jian Er's face darkened even more because of his scolding, and the force they used became even stronger.
Seeing that neither of them could shake Jian Er in the slightest.
Qin Huai considered himself a skilled fighter, but even after using all his strength, he couldn't budge him an inch. Now, he could only threaten him with a cold expression: "I'm warning you, let go of my hand right now, or I'll call for help!"
Qin's mother, enraged, yelled at Qin Yu Nie, "Did your father say something wrong?! You let others harm your father like this! Aren't you afraid of divine retribution?! Make him let go right now!"
At this moment, Qin's father was so grief-stricken that he lost his voice.
Seeing this, Qin Nian's expression was somewhat complicated, but seeing her father's condition, she said urgently, "Sister, quickly make him let go! Look how much pain Dad is in!"
Qin Yunie was furious at their words but then laughed. In the end, she smiled with relief, then reached out and took Jian Er's hand, shaking her head at him, "Let go, they're not worth it."
Jian Er looked at her and saw that her face did not change because of what they said. After she finished speaking, she let go of her hand.
As he loosened his grip, Qin's father nearly fell to the ground, but fortunately Qin Huai caught him in time, preventing him from falling.
Qin Yune looked directly at him calmly and said in a low voice, "It's my freedom to be with whomever I want, and you have no right to interfere. At the very least, I won't sell my daughter!"
Qin's father, who had been covering his hand, reached out again upon hearing her words, but when his gaze fell upon Jian Er beside her, he withdrew his hand and roared furiously, "What do you mean, selling my daughter?! When did I sell my daughter?!"
Just then, Aunt Wang and the others came out after hearing the commotion outside.
Seeing Qin Yune and Jian Er surrounded by several people, Aunt Wang quickly walked over and pushed them away. Her sister-in-law immediately said, "What are you doing?! You're bullying this young girl because of your numbers!"
Aunt Wang, however, felt they looked somewhat familiar. After a moment's thought, her gaze turned hostile, and she shielded Qin Yune and the others behind her. "Yune, aren't these your adoptive parents? They sent you back before, what are they doing here now?"
When Widow Li heard that these people were the biological parents who had taken Boss Qin to City A and abandoned their young daughter, who had just graduated, in their hometown, she immediately said to Aunt Wang, "I vaguely heard them say something about selling their daughter."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Wang immediately put her hands on her hips and said with great fighting spirit, "What! Where are you going to sell Yu Nie? Let me tell you, our village may not have much else, but it has a lot of people! Let me tell you, when you took her there, you promised to treat her well! And what happened? You let her suffer all kinds of grievances there! It's fine if you don't come, but now you remember her and want to sell her to whom?! Let's see if we agree to it!"
"So what if you're rich! Does having money make you superior? Let me tell you, if you dare to have any improper thoughts about her, we'll make sure you never come back!"
As Aunt Wang spoke, she was about to call and tell them to come over.
Having heard of the fighting spirit of rural women, Qin's mother immediately smiled kindly and explained upon hearing Aunt Wang's words, "You've misunderstood. We didn't intend to sell her. We found her a good marriage in the city and are taking her back to get married. The groom's family is very well-off; it's considered a step up for Yu Nie to marry into their family."
Aunt Wang rolled her eyes and retorted without holding back, "Since you have such good qualities, why don't you get married? You look pretty well-maintained, you should be able to get married."
Mr. Qin was furious because of what Aunt Wang said, "She's my wife!"
Aunt Wang nodded knowingly at Qin Nian, "Oh, so he likes young girls, huh? Then let her marry him. You don't only have one daughter in your family."
Upon hearing this, Qin's mother's face stiffened. She couldn't bring herself to do the same to such a country woman's nonsense, and could only explain, "They like Yu Nie and specifically asked for her. There's nothing I can do about it."
Aunt Wang's sister-in-law curled her lip, "What do you mean there's nothing we can do! You're just taking advantage of the fact that Boss Qin is easy to talk to!"
Seeing Aunt Wang and the others' fighting prowess and how Qin's mother had been humiliated, Qin Yune smiled more.
Jian Er didn't care much about them; his gaze was fixed on Qin Yunie's hand that was holding his.
Qin Nian pursed her lips, completely disregarding their claim of "Boss Qin," assuming Qin Yune was simply called "Boss Qin" because she sold boxed lunches at a street stall. "Sister, how can you let them talk about Dad like that? Do you know how many nights Dad has stayed up for our family these past few days, and how much pressure he's under?"
Qin Yunie realized that she had really taken them too seriously before, which was why they were able to bully her like that. But now that she treated them as a joke, she had a different mindset. Her eyes crinkled as she chuckled and said, "Oh, you feel so sorry for him. Why don't you share the burden and marry him yourself? Oh, no, that's not sharing the burden. This is something you caused in the first place, so it's perfect for you to marry him and make amends."
Qin Nian's face immediately turned pale; she hadn't expected that even Qin Yunie knew about this.
Qin's father said coldly, "No matter what, I am her father! Our marriage is arranged by our parents and a matchmaker! She must come back with me to get married!"
Aunt Wang was amused by his shameless words. "When you need someone, you call them Dad, but when you don't, you just go back to where you came from? Are all rich people this shameless?! Besides, Yu Nie has a partner. What, are you planning to forcibly break them up?"
Qin's father glanced at Jian Er with disdain, letting out a contemptuous sneer. "What boyfriend! With his poor, pathetic appearance, how could he be worthy of being my Qin family's son-in-law! I don't acknowledge him!"
After saying that, he turned to Qin Huai and shouted angrily, "Qin Huai! What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take your sister away!"
Hearing Qin's father's words, Qin Yu Nie frowned. She didn't like him talking about Jian Er like that and was about to retort.
Just then, a majestic voice rang out, "Trying to take them away! I'd like to see if you have the ability!"
