Chapter 45 -43: Another Fight with a First-Class Relative
After several hours on the plane, Qin Qin returned to Chuandu City, and by the time she got home, it was already two in the afternoon.
As soon as she got out of the car, she saw that her front door was surrounded by people, and she could also hear the unpleasant sound of arguing.
Hearing the familiar curses, Qin Qin’s face turned ugly as she frowned deeply. Did these people really not learn their lesson?
Qin Qin’s front door was already crowded with people, all of them chattering amongst themselves.
In the doorway, Lee Shuhua along with Qin Shuqing, and Qin Qin’s aunts Xu Ching and Zhang Jine, and her uncles Qin Chengcai and Qin Chenggang—a whole bunch of the Prestigious Family members—stood at Qin Qin’s front door. Lee Shuhua was unabashedly yelling at Qin An and a humiliated Lu Xue Zhen, “Qin An, have you no shame? If you have no shame, we of the Prestigious Family still do. What’s the matter with you and this woman? Don’t you know that our whole village is pointing fingers at your family?”
Qin An’s face flushed with color as he tried to explain hastily, “It’s not like that.”
Lu Xue Zhen had a decent upbringing, mingling only with ladies from other prestigious families, and had never encountered such a shrewish woman. Being pointed at and scolded by Lee Shuhua like this, her face turned sour, and she even clenched her hands in humiliation, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
“Nonsense? You vixen,” Lee Shuhua narrowed her eyes and glared angrily at Lu Xue Zhen, who was dressed nicely and looked to be just under thirty. How could she be interested in Qin An, a useless man? Had she lost her sight?
Vixen?! Lu Xue Zhen, angry, lifted her head. She, Lu Xue Zhen, had always conducted herself properly. How could she tolerate being called a vixen?
“If you slander me again, I won’t be polite,” Lu Xue Zhen said furiously as she looked at Lee Shuhua and the crowd. These people were simply too much, to maliciously insinuate she had something with Uncle Qin. It was also due to her lack of consideration.
“Haha, you’ll be impolite to me? What will you do to me?” Lee Shuhua, always fearless, could not possibly be afraid of this seemingly delicate and weak woman.
“Could you say fewer words?” Qin Shuqing, seeing that everyone around was pointing at their whole family, couldn’t help but feel ashamed as he pulled at his wife.
“Big brother, my sister-in-law is right. Our second brother has gotten us all being pointed at and talked about; if you comply, we do not comply, do we?” Zhang Jine’s shrill voice hurriedly spoke, while nudging Qin Chenggang by her side. Qin Chenggang was the kind who feared his wife and quickly nodded in agreement.
Xu Ching and Qin Chengcai did not speak, but neither did they object, as they typically did not express opinions in this family.
Qin An felt extremely uncomfortable hearing such comments from his dearest loved ones.
“Qin An, just say it, how should this matter be handled?” Lee Shuhua stared coldly at Qin An; she disdained him the most, a cripple and an annoying, despicable girl.
“I…” Qin An wanted to retort, but his typically honest and simple nature made it impossible for him to counter.
From outside the crowd, Qin Qin watched Qin An being bullied, her eyes flashing with coldness.
“I was wondering why the air smelled so foul today; turns out someone here is farting!” A clear and resonant voice came from behind the crowd, causing a stir as they quickly dispersed to see who had arrived.
Qin Qin looked at the crowd and her family members at her front door with cold eyes.
“Qinqin, you’ve finally come back. Your dad and the others…” Grandma Xu was also in the crowd. As an old lady, she dared not say much, only sighing inwardly. In fact, many people in the crowd didn’t think it was a big deal, but there were always some gossipy women who would turn a non-issue into a scandal.
Qinqin walked slowly towards Qin An with a leisurely step and a delicate demeanor, exuding an aura that set her apart from the surrounding people, making them feel inferior as if they had encountered a proud princess.
When Lu Xuezhen saw Qinqin return, her somewhat reddened eyes smiled, “I’m sorry, it was all because of me that…”
“It’s not your fault.” It was her own lack of consideration that had allowed her father and Lu Xuezhen to be insulted by the Qin family members.
Seeing that Qinqin didn’t blame her at all, Lu Xuezhen felt moved. “Thank you.”
Qinqin nodded lightly and looked towards Qin An, stepping forward, “Dad, I’m sorry you were wronged.”
Having said that, Qinqin shot a cold glance at Lee Shuhua and company.
Stepping forward with her head held high, she stared disdainfully at Lee Shuhua and the others, “Big Aunt, Lu Xuezhen is my friend, and now you’ve insulted my friend and my father. I demand an apology from you to them.”
“Apologize? Dream on!” Lee Shuhua shrieked, “Who insulted him?”
“Are you saying you didn’t?” Qinqin advanced menacingly, forcing Lee Shuhua to take a big step back. Qinqin raised a sneering smile at Qin Shuqing and the others, “Did you, Uncle, have anything to do with this? Lu Xuezhen merely stayed at my home for two days, yet you pressured her so much, accusing them of having an illicit relationship. Heh, I just want to say that gossips never end well. Besides, this is my family affair, none of your business! If you have seen any kind of improper relationship, then speak up. And even if a man and a woman are unmarried, even if there was something, what business is it of yours?”
The coarse language from Qinqin’s cold remarks made Lee Shuhua and the others’ faces darken.
Qin Shuqing and Qin Chengcai immediately also scolded with cold faces, “Qin An, look at the daughter you’ve raised, daring to treat your elders like this, she’s practically rebelling.”
Qin An didn’t speak; he didn’t know what to say. His closest relatives were pressuring him, yet they expected him to scold his own daughter who, despite being disrespectful to her elders, was provoked by their disrespect.
“Elders? Are there any elders who act like you? Just by hearing a few idle remarks from outsiders, you come to my doorstep to question my father. Uncle, Big Aunt, Third Uncle, Third Aunt, Fourth Uncle, Fourth Aunt, have you ever thought that I and father are your closest kin? You should be reproaching those who are impolite to us, not ganging up at my house to berate your close ones. If I don’t stand up like this today, would you still expect us to apologize to you? Why should we? From now on, I, Qinqin, and my father, Qin An, will no longer acknowledge you as relatives. From hereafter, whether in wealth or in poverty, we shall have nothing to do with each other.”
As Qinqin finished speaking, gasps of shock spread around, as people seemed unable to believe that the previously timid Qinqin dared to utter such words.
“You… you’re being insolent; it’s not up to you to decide,” Qin Shuqing and others pointed at Qinqin in a rage, “Qin An, is this how you indulge your daughter? To sever ties with us, it’s too much.”
“Yes, Second Brother, is this family now under Qinqin’s control? Is this how you teach your daughter? No wonder she’s lawless now,” Zhang Jine spoke disdainfully, “Sever ties if you want; I don’t want such a disgraceful relative anyway. She’s only bringing me shame wherever I go.”
Qin An looked up, hesitating, “Qinqin, we shouldn’t… you should apologize to your Big Uncle and the others right away.”

“Humph, apologize? We can’t afford her apologies; she looks down on us now,” Lee Shuhua rolled her eyes. She was actually eager for Qinqin and her family to cut ties with them; what use was there in poor relatives who only brought them ridicule?
