“Naturally, he is my son, Xiao Jiu.”
Zhao Youguang's heart tightened, and he immediately said, "Madam Zhan is joking. The child is still so young, how can we believe what he says?"
Qiao Wanwan's expression turned slightly cold. "You mean, my son would lie?"
Zhao Youguang: "..."
"No, no, no, I absolutely didn't mean that!" Zhao Youguang hurriedly explained, "What I meant was that Xiao Jiu was raised by Shu Jun after all, and she inevitably instilled some wrong ideas in him, so we can't believe what Xiao Jiu says."
“Children’s feelings are the most genuine, and at his age, he can distinguish right from wrong.” Qiao Wanwan instructed, “Aunt Zheng, go and bring Xiao Jiu here, and also invite Ms. Qin. So many people from the Zhao family have come, so of course we need to confront them face to face.”
The three of them: "......"
When Qin Shujun saw the Zhao family, the smile on her face froze for a moment, but her attitude remained somewhat respectful, "Eldest brother, second brother, second sister-in-law."
None of the three men gave her a friendly look, and the woman even rolled her eyes at her.
Xiao Jiu ignored her and walked straight to Qiao Wanwan's side, giving her a smile.
Qiao Wanwan's heart was almost melted by her cuteness. "Xiao Jiu, did you sleep well last night?"
Xiao Jiu nodded.
“Our little Jiu is getting cuter and cuter.” Zhao Youguang picked up a gift from the side. “Your uncle brought you a gift. Open it and see if you like it.”
Xiao Jiu stood still.
"Mr. Zhao, you're too kind. Our family doesn't need any gifts." Qiao Wanwan patted Xiao Jiu's face. "Xiao Jiu, tell Mommy, are these people good to you? How do they usually greet you when they see you?"
The three of them immediately became very nervous!
"Madam Zhan, did Shujun tell you that we usually call Xiao Jiu 'little monster'? That's slander! We absolutely did not do that!"
Just as Qiao Wanwan was about to speak, she saw Xiao Jiu immediately cover her ears!
Qiao Wanwan frowned!
Qin Shujun choked back tears, saying sadly, "I once told Xiao Jiu that when someone called him a little monster, he should cover his ears. It's become a conditioned reflex for him, so whenever he hears those three words, he covers his ears..."
Qiao Wanwan felt heartbroken. She removed Xiao Jiu's hands from her ears, held back her tears, and said, "Xiao Jiu, listen to Mommy. You're not a little monster. Mommy is asking you about this to find out who is slandering our Xiao Jiu."
"Don't be afraid. Tell Mommy the truth. This is your home. With Daddy and Mommy here, no one will dare to bully you."
Qiao Wanwan pointed at the three people sitting opposite her and asked, "Have those three ever bullied you?"
Xiao Jiu turned to look at them and nodded firmly.
The expressions of the three people opposite them changed drastically!
"Xiao Jiu, how could you lie?"
"Xiao Jiu, your second aunt has always been so good to you, and you actually spread rumors and slander me! You've hurt your second aunt's feelings so much, sob sob..."
Xiao Jiu pursed her lips and lowered her eyes.
Qiao Wanwan's heart was breaking. The child had clearly been bullied for a long time and knew that he couldn't fight back, which was why he reacted this way!
Qiao Wanwan looked at the three people opposite her with icy eyes and said coldly, "I believe Xiao Jiu, he won't lie!"
Xiao Jiu was stunned, looking at Qiao Wanwan in disbelief!
Mom actually believed him!
Qiao Wanwan held Xiao Jiu in her arms protectively, her voice growing colder, "Children's hearts are pure, but some adults have too many filthy thoughts, not even sparing a child!"
The three of them could easily understand the meaning behind Qiao Wanwan's words!
The woman said quietly, "Madam Zhan, why don't you just give us our ID cards?"
"I'd like to," Qiao Wanwan sneered, "but I don't know your ID numbers."
The three of them: "......"
The woman argued, "Madam Zhan, you're wrong. If we really didn't spare a single child, would Xiao Jiu be standing here unharmed?"
"So you mean Xiao Jiu has to die in the Zhao family for you to not let him off the hook?" A hint of hatred flashed in Qiao Wanwan's eyes. "To me, not a single hair on my son's head is acceptable. No matter who bullies him, I will get my revenge tenfold!"
"Now explain to me why Xiao Jiu fell into the swimming pool and lost her speech!"
The three of them trembled violently in fright, feeling a chill run down their spines!
"Madam Zhan, you must have heard Shujun say that Xiao Jiu's fall into the water was not an accident, but deliberate, right?" the woman said. "She has been saying this for many years. Did she also say that Xiao Jiu was pushed into the water by our two families' children? Where is the evidence? Is there any evidence?"
"You're making baseless accusations without any evidence. Xiao Jiu is a child, but aren't we, the ones being framed, also children? If you're going to believe this woman's one-sided story and the words of a five-year-old child, we have nothing to say. But justice will prevail. We have never bullied Xiao Jiu. Xiao Jiu falling into the water was the result of Qin Shujun's negligence, and it has nothing to do with us!"
Qiao Wanwan looked at the self-righteous woman and suddenly curled her lips into a smile. "That's true. There are no surveillance cameras anymore, so there's no evidence. Maybe Ms. Qin is really lying."
Qin Shujun hurriedly said, "I swear to God, I absolutely did not lie!"
"What's the use of swearing? I can swear too, I didn't lie!" The woman immediately raised her hand and solemnly swore, "If I have ever bullied Xiao Jiu, may I die a horrible death!"
"You..." Qin Shujun was so angry that she couldn't speak!
