Chapter 521 - 551: Won’t Take Care of That Brat
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
Then, in the next moment, Shen Yi scooped Qin Jiao up in his arms.
Qin Jiao pushed him. "Didn’t we just... you know... yesterday?"
Shen Yi kissed her ear and said, "This time, I want to do it in the space..."
"..."

Five days later, Sun Jianhua returned from their hometown. Wang Xiaojuan had been sent back to her family, and with them watching over her, she would never be coming to North City again.
Qin Jiao asked, "Uncle, did you give them money?"
"That bunch are all ingrates. If you give them money, they’ll just try to figure out how to bleed you dry. For people like them, other methods are more effective—and they provide a permanent solution."
Qin Jiao was quite curious about what kind of legal method he’d used, but Sun Jianhua wouldn’t elaborate, saying it wasn’t good for a young lady like her to know.
’Oh, she could pretty much guess. He probably used some unconventional methods.’
But according to Sun Jianhua, the Wang family weren’t good people either. Using some extreme measures on them wasn’t a big deal, as long as it wasn’t illegal.
Sun Jianhua also brought back another piece of news from their hometown: Qin Zhonghui’s third brother, Qin Jiqun, had been sentenced to prison for robbery. Now he could keep his ex-wife, Feng Lan, company.
However, Feng Lan would be getting out soon. When that happened, who knew what kind of trouble she would stir up.
At this, Su Yun glanced worriedly at Qin Zhonghui and asked, "What about Mr. Qin and the others? And what about that boy, Xiao Tao?"
"Mr. Qin was so angry he had a stroke and was hospitalized. Then, our eldest brother and his wife took our mother in. But because they also had to take Xiao Tao, our sister-in-law, Sun Li, isn’t too happy about it."
After the huge falling out with the family back home, it was already a big deal that Sun Li was still willing to care for their mother.
If Xiao Tao were a well-behaved child, it might have been manageable.
But he’d been spoiled by his grandparents, and his own parents were lazy and greedy. How could that boy possibly turn out well?
Sun Jianhua added with a sigh, "He dropped out of elementary school and is always getting into fights. One time, he even stole the money Mr. Qin had hidden. It’s plain to see he’s turning out just like his parents."
Hearing this, everyone understood. So, Mr. Qin had a stroke because he was angered by his most beloved son and grandson!
And a child like that, who steals from the family at the drop of a hat—how could Sun Li possibly be willing to raise him?
Su Yun grew a little worried. She turned to look at her husband and saw that, as expected, Qin Zhonghui’s expression was grim.
The situation back home was a real mess. They could ignore whether Qin Jiqun lived or died, but they couldn’t just abandon their elderly parents.
Qin Na, her belly large with child, asked softly, "Brother, what do you think we should do?"
Qin Zhonghui was silent for a long time before finally saying, "I’ll go back and take a look. I can’t possibly take them in, but he’s in the hospital, and our eldest brother’s family must be under a lot of pressure. We’ll help where we can."
If nothing else, they couldn’t just watch Mr. Qin lie in a hospital bed with no money for treatment.
But the prognosis for Mr. Qin’s condition was uncertain. He might remain paralyzed indefinitely, or he could pass away suddenly one day.
Su Yun wasn’t surprised by her husband’s decision, and she supported him.
However, there was one point on which she was adamant.
Su Yun said, "It’s fine for you to go back and see them. It’s also fine to give them some money. But there’s one thing: we will absolutely not raise that child!"
Even after all this time, whenever Xiao Tao’s name was mentioned, Xiao Shi’s expression would still change.
She had been beaten by that little brat more than a few times in the past.
Su Yun would rather people call her heartless and ungrateful than ever let her own child relive those unpleasant childhood memories!
