Chapter 76 Qin Shuhe's Stubbornness
When Xu Yueqing heard this, her eyebrows raised and her face became hideous and terrifying.
"You...you little bitch, you have no manners at all, do you know how to respect your elders?"
An Ran's face became more and more disdainful, and she snorted coldly and mocked.
"Elder? Just because you are a mistress in a high position, do you think you are worthy?"
These words were like a sharp knife, piercing Xu Yueqing's heart.
She was immediately furious. The biggest taboo in her life was to be called a mistress who was not worthy of being in public.
She is the legitimate wife of the glorious Ji family, how could she be slandered like this?
She rushed towards An Ran angrily, cursing at her.
"Little bitch, I'm going to tear your mouth apart!"
Ji Qiubai arrived later, his face as gloomy as the bottom of a pot, and stopped Xu Yueqing.
His low roar sounded like thunder in Xu Yueqing's ears.
"Aren't you embarrassed enough?"
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Xu Yueqing's heart hard and making her stop in her tracks.
Her face showed a complex expression of astonishment and grievance, and all her dignity seemed to be shattered by Ji Qiubai's words.
"Qiu Bai, even you don't protect me."
The tears in Xu Yueqing's eyes rolled down her cheeks like they were free.
Ji Qiubai rubbed his aching forehead, feeling deeply powerless.
"Yueqing, this is a public place. Are you sure you want to be laughed at and become the subject of conversation?"
Xu Yueqing's face was still gloomy, with anger flashing in her eyes, but the tone of her voice had obviously dropped.
"After all, you are her biological father! Even if you teach her a lesson occasionally, who can tell her about it?"
Her voice was filled with reluctance, and her face looked more aggrieved.
"Okay, that's enough."
Ji Qiubai's expression changed constantly. He looked at An Ran with a meaningful look, then turned, walked up the stairs and entered the box.
Xu Yueqing and Ji Keke glared at An Ran indignantly and followed closely behind.
"How are you?"
Xiao Ze's face was full of worry. He knew that An Ran would not be bullied easily, but he was still worried that An Ran would feel uncomfortable facing Ji Qiubai.
An Ran shook her head as if nothing had happened, raised the corners of her mouth and gave Xiao Ze a comforting smile.
"Don't worry, I'm fine, let's go."
As soon as the two of them walked to the door, they saw Ji Jingxi looking them up and down with an inexplicable expression. An Ran seemed unaware and walked straight past him.
Xiao Ze looked at him with a complicated expression on his face, and then spoke meaningfully.
"An Ran, is this the son of the Ji family?"
"Well, what's wrong?"
An Ran looked at Xiao Ze with suspicion. You know, he is not a nosy person and he will not easily pay attention to anyone.
"hehe."
Xiao Ze let out a soft laugh, and his icy face thawed instantly, just like the flowers and moon in a spring morning, warming people's hearts.
"I don't think so."
In his spare time, Xiao Ze studied the art of divination in depth, and he had gained a lot of insights by observing people's faces.
When I saw Ji Qiubai just now, I knew that he would not have children. Now that I saw Ji Qiubai's son, I suddenly realized.
However, when he looked at An Ran again, he was surprised to find that he could not read any secret from her face.
Her face seemed to be covered by a layer of white gauze, making it impossible to see her past.
An Ran looked strange when she heard this, then nodded in understanding.
"Well, the Ji family's children do look nothing like Ji Qiubai."
Seeing that An Ran had misunderstood what he meant, Xiao Ze did not explain further. Anyway, the affairs of the Ji family would be exposed soon, so there was no need to distract An Ran.
The two had nothing to do, so they said goodbye and parted ways. An Ran did not stay outside for long and went straight back to the Lin family's old house.
......
As soon as An Ran walked in, she noticed that the atmosphere was a bit depressing. An Ran looked at everyone with different expressions with some surprise. She didn't ask any questions and sat directly next to Lin Qingwan and An Guodong.
"Lin Qingtang, are you guys turning a deaf ear to what I said?"
Mr. Lin’s face turned livid and he looked furious.
Lin Qingtang looked helpless, while Qin Shuhe looked stubborn and unconvinced.
"Dad, you don't have to be angry at Qingtang. I did it, it has nothing to do with him."
Lin Qingtang nervously pulled Qin Shuhe, but Qin Shuhe shook his hand away and continued.
"Changan is my son, and I have the right to make decisions for him."
"Chang'an is an adult. Did you raise him? What qualifications do you have to make decisions for him?"
Old Master Lin was so angry that he trembled all over at Qin Shuhe's matter-of-fact words.
Qin Shuhe still insisted on her own opinion and didn't feel that she had done anything wrong.
"Isn't Chang'an fine now? Why do you have to let Huai Xu go to jail? How can you be so cruel that you have to destroy him?"
“Pah.”
Old Master Lin grabbed the teacup on the table and slammed it in front of Qin Shuhe, breaking it into pieces.
"If you really have the ability, don't use the name of our Lin family! I'm making this clear. Whoever dares to hurt my grandson, Lin Zhaoxian, will be made to pay the price!"
Qin Shuhe was startled by the cup in front of him and a look of aggrieved appeared on his face.
"Dad, why are you so heartless? Huai Xu has called you grandpa for more than 20 years, do you have to kill him? Qingtang, say something, don't you feel bad?"
Lin Qingtang looked at Qin Shuhe and felt something strange in his heart. The woman in front of him became so unfamiliar. Where did she go, the girl who dared to love and hate and had a cheerful personality?
"Shuhe, calm down. Lin Huaixu has violated the law and should be punished accordingly."
However, Qin Shuhe refused to listen to anyone's advice at this moment. She firmly believed that the Lin family was unwilling to let Lin Huaixu go, and her face was filled with paranoid madness.
"What's the point of violating the law? As long as we don't pursue it, with the power of our family, such a small matter can be easily settled."
"It's totally unreasonable, Lin Qingtang, there's no need to waste words with her. If she insists on having her own way, let her go back to their Qin family."
Old Master Lin felt exhausted when he saw Qin Shuhe going crazy for Lin Huaixu. He glanced at Lin Qingtang, turned and walked into the study.
When Qin Shuhe heard what Mr. Lin said, he burst into tears.
"Why are you forcing me? I have worked hard in your Lin family for more than 20 years. Even if I have no merits, I have worked hard. Why should I go back to the Qin family?"
An Ran's family sat there awkwardly, feeling very uncomfortable, and no one dared to say anything more.
Lin Qingwan and Qin Shuhe were very good friends. Seeing her crying pitifully, she couldn't help feeling a little bit of pity, so she walked over to support her and comforted her softly.
"Sister-in-law, what my brother said makes sense. After all, Huai Xu's mistake was not a small one. If we insist on protecting him, wouldn't it be too unfair to Chang'an? Chang'an went through a lot of hardships to come back to you. Do you have the heart to separate from Chang'an because of this matter and hurt the relationship between you and your son?"
When Qin Shuhe heard this, the grievances in his heart surged up like a tide. She said this with tears in her eyes and choked up.
"Qingwan, I just don't want to see the brothers harboring resentment towards each other. After all, Chang'an is safe and sound now, and Huaixu has reflected on his mistakes. Do we really have to force him into a desperate situation?"
