In sharp contrast to Qin Xingzhou's anxious mood were Zhan Jinhua and her son Sun Xiaohao.
Sun Xiaohao was overjoyed when he thought about how easily Zhan Jinhua had gotten a million. It must be said that his biological mother was indeed quite capable.
Since she could easily control Qin Xingzhou, it meant that Qin Xingzhou himself must not be clean, and Zhan Jinhua had some leverage over him.
If Qin Xingzhou had done nothing wrong, he could have reported Zhan Jinhua to the police and accused her of extortion. However, Qin Xingzhou obediently agreed to Zhan Jinhua's seemingly unreasonable request.
However, considering that Zhan Jinhua asked for one million, it was not an exorbitant request.
After all, most of this one million is the inheritance from his third aunt Zhan Tiehua. Why should it benefit his ex-husband Qin Xingzhou?
After Qin Xingzhou left, Zhan Jinhua and Sun Xiaohao had a delicious meal.
During the dinner, Sun Xiaohao made full use of his eloquence to flatter Zhan Jinhua, which greatly pleased Zhan Jinhua.
Sun Xiaohao said exaggeratedly, "Mom, I've only seen a hundred yuan in my life, so how much would one million yuan be worth? Will we no longer have to live in the open air and suffer from hardship?"
Although Zhan Jinhua was happy to be praised by Sun Xiaohao, she was a stingy person and would not invest too much in her worthless son Sun Xiaohao. At most, she would just take care of his food and drink.
As for whether Sun Xiaohao can demonstrate his value in the future, it depends on his specific performance.
With the help of Sun Xiaohao, she had used the computer in the Internet cafe to check the news related to the Zhan family in the past few days. She also privately inquired about Master Yiyuan and found out that he was a big liar.
Because of this incident, Zhan Jinhua had let go of her grudge against Sun Xiaohao. Since Master Yiyuan was a big liar, his words were naturally untrustworthy. Zhan Jinhua was not so heartless as to harm her own son for his nonsense.
At least for Sun Xiaohao, who is now in good health, she has no reason to send Sun Xiaohao to another world.
Three days later, Zhan Jinhua and Sun Xiaohao showed up at Qin Xingzhou's delicatessen headquarters on time.
Zhan Jinhua threatened Qin Xingzhou with the safety of his two children, and he did not dare to deny his debt.
After Qin Xingzhou's second wife gave birth to a daughter, she now stays at home to take care of the child and rarely comes to the store.
Qin Xingzhou gave the clerk another word and followed Zhan Jinhua out the door. This time, the three of them found a secluded spot in the park across from the delicatessen.
Qin Xingzhou directly handed Zhan Jinhua a card, told her the bank card password, and attached a receipt. He took it out and asked Zhan Jinhua to sign it.
Zhan Jinhua wasn't stupid, so there was no way she'd just signed without hesitation. It was unclear whether there was any money in the card. Besides, the bank card wasn't in her name, so it wasn't always safe.
She insisted that Qin Xingzhou take her directly to the bank. She applied for a new bank card herself and asked Qin Xingzhou to handle the transfer directly at the bank.
In the end, the one million was deposited into Zhan Jinhua's card as she wished. Zhan Jinhua happily signed the receipt and put her fingerprints on it. The two agreed that their previous grudges would be wiped out and they would have nothing to do with each other in the future.
After resolving this matter, Zhan Jinhua took Sun Xiaohao to the mall to go shopping. They bought a lot of new clothes and shoes, all of which were branded goods, and also bought some cosmetics.
Sun Xiaohao also benefited from this and got a few pieces of brand-name clothes.
Afterwards, Zhan Jinhua went to the barber shop with Sun Xiaohao. She got herself a perm, which is the most popular hairstyle among middle-aged and elderly people nowadays, and also had someone put on makeup for her.
It is said that clothes make the man, and makeup makes the beauty. Although Zhan Jinhua changed into new clothes and put on makeup, she still looked ugly, but her temperament was a little better, and she looked like a wealthy person with some family background.
She liked to dress herself up when she was young, and now that she has finally come out of it, she naturally cannot treat herself badly in terms of dressing.
When Zhan Jinhua and Sun Xiaohao stood in front of Xing Jiaqi again, Xing Jiaqi almost didn't recognize them.
After all, her first impression of the couple was that they were ugly, dressed in shabby clothes, and could be seen at a glance as poor. But now, looking at Zhan Jinhua again, she could tell that the clothes she was wearing were not cheap.
Her mother-in-law bought many of her clothes in shopping malls. The top that Zhan Jinhua wore was from the same brand as her mother-in-law, and it cost several thousand yuan more.
This time, Xing Jiaqi put away the contempt in her eyes, and there was some more doubt in her eyes.
Zhan Jinhua saw through Xing Jiaqi's thoughts and explained to her, "Your brother and I came here in a hurry a few days ago. We wanted to see you right away, so we didn't have time to change our clothes.
Actually, Mom is not poor at all, it’s just that making money requires a lot of hard work, and she’s always looking shabby.”
Before she even asked Xing Jiaqi about the paternity test, she already naturally introduced herself into the role of "mother".
After explaining the reasons for the dramatic changes in her and her son's appearance, Zhan Jinhua finally remembered to ask Xing Jiaqi, "Did we get your hair authenticated last time? You're my biological child. I definitely wouldn't joke about this."
Xing Jiaqi's attitude towards Zhan Jinhua had obviously softened a lot. She replied, "It's been identified, but we'll have to wait a few days for the results."
The last time she was kicked out of the house by Xing Zhiqiang's wife, the next day was a weekend and her child did not go to kindergarten, but she still went to Xing Zhiqiang's house as usual to send her child.
But this time Xing Jiaqi couldn't even get in, because the couple asked a locksmith to change the door lock overnight.
Xing Jiaqi didn't expect that the couple would be so ruthless this time. They banged on the door, but there was no movement from inside. She was in a hurry to go to work, so she had to take her child to the company.
Because the child was disobedient and noisy and affected everyone's work, she had to call her retired parents-in-law and ask them to take the child home to help take care of him for a day.
As for her parents-in-law, it’s not that they dislike children. It’s okay for them to play with the children for a while, but don’t even think about asking them to take care of the children for a long time.
Fortunately, Xing Jiaqi was off work the next day and could take care of the child by herself. After that, it was kindergarten day. In the past, she always asked the elderly couple of the Xing family to pick up the child from school.
Now it's Friday, and the old couple in the Xing family don't answer Xing Jiaqi's calls at all, let alone let her into the house.
Xing Jiaqi held her breath, just waiting for the paternity test with Zhan Jinhua to come out so that she could slap the old couple in the face.
Since they were so partial to their own son, why did they bring her home to raise her?
They are unkind, so don't blame yourself for being unjust. Now, Xing Jiaqi has made up her mind to completely break with the Xing family.
This idea became even stronger after seeing how Zhan Jinhua and Sun Xiaohao had changed so much.
