Qin Huai Ru did not get along well with her neighbors in the courtyard on a daily basis.
Now that Qin Hao was being beaten, no one helped, and Qin Hao could only turn to the person he was closest to for help.
The person who treated him best on a daily basis was Sha Zhu.
"Dad, hurry and save me, she's hitting me!"
At this critical moment, Qin Hao cried to Sha Zhu, seeking help for his grievances.
If anyone else dared to lay a hand on Qin Hao, Sha Zhu would have exploded long ago.
But now, the person hitting Qin Hao was Qin Jing Ru, and the situation was different!
On one side was Sha Zhu's wife, and on the other was Sha Zhu's son.
If Sha Zhu were to oppose Qin Jing Ru now, their marriage would surely not last.
But if Sha Zhu did nothing now, Qin Hao would probably be completely disappointed in him.
While Sha Zhu was in a dilemma, Zhao Fei Yan spoke up, "You can just stand by and watch Qin Jing Ru beat Qin Hao like this!"
"Sha Zhu, you're something else!"
"It seems I was wrong about you before. The relationship between you and this child Qin Hao is indeed pure and innocent!"
At this moment, Qin Hao suddenly shouted loudly, "What you're saying is wrong, he is my dad!"
"My mom said it herself, he's my dad!"
Qin Jing Ru really couldn't have imagined that even at this point, Qin Hao would still dare to try and claim Sha Zhu as his father.
"Slap!"
The more Qin Jing Ru thought about it, the angrier she became. She reached out and slapped him again.
Then, Qin Jing Ru grabbed Qin Hao's ear and roared fiercely, "You stinking brat, can't you control that foul mouth of yours?"
"You're clearly a wild child with no father, yet you still run here to cause trouble!"
"See if I don't beat you to death, you bastard, today, humph!"
In a fit of rage, Qin Jing Ru kicked Qin Hao several times, trying to force him to change his tune.
Qin Hao cried out in pain under her blows, wailing miserably.
At this time, Sha Zhu finally couldn't stand it anymore, "Qin Jing Ru, are you going to stop? He's just a child!"
"Are you even human, beating a child like this in public?"
Qin Jing Ru's beating of Qin Hao was stopped by Sha Zhu.
This guy became furious and completely exploded.
She pointed directly at Sha Zhu's nose and scolded, "Sha Zhu, you heartless dog!"
"I must have been blind to fall for trash like you!"
"I don't think we can go on living like this anymore. Let's get divorced as soon as possible!"
"Humph!"
Sha Zhu said coldly, "Do whatever you want, but in one sentence, I will not allow you to bully a child like this anymore!"
"Then let's get divorced!"
Qin Jing Ru roared and left without looking back.
Zhao Fei Yan continued, "Well, Sha Zhu, you finally admit that you are Qin Hao's father, don't you?"
"If that's the case, then there's no need to beat around the bush!"
"You take this child away immediately. This house is mine now!"
Sha Zhu said grimly, "I can't make decisions about the house right now!"
"You still need to go through the handover with Qin Huai Ru. Even though this house is yours, there are still many of their personal belongings inside!"
"It's not appropriate for you to just take the house like this!"
Zhao Fei Yan said angrily, "According to your logic, Qin Huai Ru is occupying my house, and she's in the right?"
"I'm going to throw all her things out today. No one is going to snatch my house!"
As she spoke, Zhao Fei Yan was about to rush into the house to start clearing it out.
At this moment, Wang Xia hurried forward to dissuade her, "Fei Yan, don't be so impatient!"
"This matter is definitely not as simple as you think!"
"I'll go to the hospital today and have a good talk with Qin Huai Ru!"
"We'll try to get the house cleared out as soon as possible. If you take the house now and Qin Huai Ru causes trouble in the future, it will be hard to explain!"
"Consider it for your own benefit, please don't be impulsive!"
Under Wang Xia's persuasion, Zhao Fei Yan did not enter the house for the time being.
This matter was thus left unresolved.
...
At dusk, Wang Xia, along with several staff members from the neighborhood committee, met Qin Huai Ru in the hospital lobby.
Upon seeing Wang Xia, Qin Huai Ru immediately began to cry profusely, "Director Wang, I beg you to save me!"
"Look, the illness in my leg has flared up again, but I have no money for treatment!"
"Please save me, I'll kowtow to you!"
As she spoke, Qin Huai Ru knelt on the ground, kowtowing frantically.
Wang Xia looked down and saw that one of Qin Huai Ru's legs was indeed extremely swollen.
This was not something new, as Qin Huai Ru had been hospitalized for treatment multiple times before.
However, the cause of her illness was very strange, and the hospital could not figure out what it was.
But at the same time, Qin Huai Ru's episodes had all healed on their own in the end.
Therefore, Wang Xia did not take Qin Huai Ru's old ailment seriously.
Instead, she continued to say to Qin Huai Ru, "Qin Huai Ru!"
"Stop pretending to be pitiful in front of me, okay? You just sold the house a while ago and got over 3,000 yuan!"
"Now you say you have no money, who would believe that?"
Qin Huai Ru explained, "Director Wang, our family's situation is truly very difficult!"
"I have to support three children now and don't even have a stable place to live!"
"Every bit of money I have is less, only you can help me!"
"I beg you, you must help me this time, no matter what!"
Wang Xia said grimly, "Qin Huai Ru, if you are truly in difficulty, our neighborhood committee will provide some assistance!"
"But now, your problem is too serious!"
"The most important thing you need to do now is to deeply reflect on your mistakes!"
"The real estate transaction contract between Zhao Fei Yan and you has now taken effect!"
"There is no point in you clinging to the house and refusing to vacate it!"
Qin Huai Ru replied with a mournful face, "Wang Xia, why are you like this? Don't you have any sympathy?"
"I'm already like this, and you're still urging me to vacate the house?"
"If I hand over the house now, where will I and the children live?"
"I, an adult, don't care, but Qin Hao is still just a child!"
At this moment, another staff member standing behind Wang Xia came forward and questioned,
"Qin Huai Ru, since you know that you and your child need a place to live, why did you sell the house?"
"When you sold the house, several comrades from our neighborhood committee were present to witness it!"
Qin Huai Ru retorted indignantly, "Zhang Lu, don't you speak from a position of privilege!"
