Jing Shao is infertile, but his nanny is pregnant with his child.

Qin Xiaofang wanted to reach out and pat Liu Jiabao, but she withdrew her hand when she saw the gauze on his body.

Qin Xiaofang was seething with anger and had nowhere to vent it, so she turned around and yelled at Qin Yuanchao, "Why should I give her money!"

Lu Yan didn't care anymore. "Captain Qin, I'm leaving the rest to you."

Qin Yuanchao pursed his lips and looked at Qin Xiaofang. "Grandma, I've handled the case as you instructed. If you don't keep your promise as we agreed, then I'll have to take you to the police station."

Upon hearing that she was being taken to the police station, Qin Xiaofang plopped down on the ground. "Fine, go ahead and arrest me. I've been starving at home anyway, so maybe I'll have a good meal when I get there."

Chu Xinyue was so angry her mind went blank. "Mom, when have Zhanwei and I ever let you go hungry? You should speak with a clear conscience!"

Qin Xiaofang pointed at her, spitting as she spoke, "Shut up! I'm about to be arrested, and neither of you is saying a word in my defense. You've been planning to use this opportunity to kick me out, haven't you!"

Liu Zhanwei frowned. "Mom, if that's how you think, there's nothing I can do."

Qin Xiaofang choked for a moment.

Qin Yuanchao looked at Qin Xiaofang, who was sitting on the ground acting like a rogue, and said patiently, "Old lady, you insulted Comrade Lu Yan in front of our police officers and spread rumors that were bad for her. Once you are in the police station, you will soon be sent to a labor camp and lose your personal freedom."

Qin Xiaofang's face turned pale, and her arrogant demeanor instantly diminished by more than half.

Liu Jiabao's body went limp, but when he bent over, his ribs started to hurt.

Qin Yuanchao continued, "Whether you follow the promise you just made or bring your son back with us, we are also very humane. Comrade Liu Jiabao's injuries haven't healed yet, so we will take him to the hospital first, and then we will take him there after he is discharged."

The doctor wanted Liu Jiabao to be hospitalized, but he insisted on coming to testify and only felt satisfied after witnessing Lu Yan being arrested.

Liu Jiabao: "I was beaten. Not only do you not stand up for me, but you also want to arrest me! I'm going to report this to higher authorities!"

Qin Yuanchao said unhurriedly, "Comrade Liu Jiabao, we will continue to investigate your case. Once we find out who it is, we will punish them. However, you will also bear legal responsibility for slandering Comrade Lu Yan. Let's keep things separate."

Seeing that he was serious, Liu Jiabao was terrified. He hurriedly walked up to Liu Zhanwei, grabbed his arm, and said, "Big brother, big brother, please save me! I was really beaten by that bitch Lu Yan. I don't know why there isn't a single mark on her hand, but it really was her who hit me. We can't just let this go!"

Liu Zhanwei pried his hands off. "Jiabao, I have no right to interfere in the affairs of the Public Security Bureau."

Liu Jiabao felt a chill run down his spine. He looked at Qin Xiaofang and said, "Mom, what should I do? I don't want to go to the police station."

Qin Xiaofang was also getting anxious, as she knew what labor camps were all about.

She didn't want to go either.

He hesitated for a moment, sitting on the ground, then jumped up, dusted himself off, and said, "An apology is fine, but I don't have any money!"

Lu Yan remained silent.

She doesn't care anyway.

Qin Yuanchao: "Then we'll have no choice but to take you all with us."

As he spoke, Qin Yuanchao looked at the police officers behind him and said, "First, take Comrade Liu Jiabao back to the hospital, and then bring the old man back to the station."

"Yes, Captain Qin."

Several police officers approached Liu Jiabao and said, "Comrade, come with us."

Liu Jiabao burst into tears, clinging tightly to Qin Xiaofang, crying, "Mom, Mom, let's give her money, give her money!"

Standing in front of Liu Jiabao, Qin Xiaofang said angrily, "Let go of my son, and we'll give you money!"

Lu Yan smiled, her lips curving upwards.

That's more like it.

Qin Xiaofang: "Zhan Wei, hurry up and get me the money."

She figured it out. Since it wouldn't cost her any money anyway, and Lu Yan wanted money, she'd let Liu Zhanwei pay for it. That way, Liu Zhanwei and his wife would hold a grudge against Lu Yan.

Liu Zhanwei knew this would happen. "Mom, I don't have that much money."

Qin Xiaofang was utterly skeptical. "With such a high monthly salary, how could you not have money? Stop pretending and give me the money right now!"

Liu Zhanwei pursed his lips. "Mom, I really don't have that much. There's only thirty yuan left at home. I can give you all of it if you want, but you'll have to pay for the rest yourself."

"You're talking nonsense!" Qin Xiaofang cursed. "With such a high salary, how could you not have money!"

"How could Commander Liu possibly have any money?" Chen Yuhong said from the side. "Our family of three only has a few dozen yuan left each month after our salaries support three people. Commander Liu's salary alone has to support his family of four, as well as you, your son, and your daughter. Every day when he opens his eyes, he has to feed seven people. Doesn't that all cost money?"

"That's true. Look at the clothes that Commander Liu's mother and his younger brother and sister wear, they're much better than what Xin Yue wears. Commander Liu is very filial. If he really had extra money, he would definitely buy Xin Yue a new outfit. The couple has such a good relationship. Xin Yue lived a very good life before Commander Liu's mother and his younger brother and sister came. Look at how she lives now."

"Exactly! They say they're here to take care of their granddaughter, but I think they've brought their own sons and daughters to leech off others!"

Qin Xiaofang was furious, her nose practically spitting fire. "How dare you talk like that? Whose blood have I sucked? Liu Zhanwei is the child I raised myself. It's only right that he's being filial to me. What business is it of yours!"

Liu Laidi, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore and turned back.

Soon, Liu Laidi brought over ten ten-yuan bills and handed them to Lu Yan.

"Comrade Lu Yan, please take this money."

Lu Yan looked at her. "Your money?"

Qin Xiaofang's eyes widened. When did this brat accumulate so much secret money?

Liu Laidi shook his head, "My mother's."

Lu Yan reached out and took it, then put it in her pocket.

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaofang nearly choked on her own breath. She reached out to hit Liu Laidi, yelling, "You traitorous bastard, I'll beat you to death!"

After beating Liu Laidi, they were going to rob Lu Yan of the money in her pocket.

Liu Laidi pulled her over and yelled, "Mom, can you stop making a scene?! Do you only feel satisfied when my older brother can't hold his head up in this compound?!"

Qin Xiaofang was silenced by her shout.

"The police officers said they were checking footprints, but Jiabao said Comrade Lu Yan had wiped them away. They checked Comrade Lu Yan's hands, and they were spotless, without a single mark. How did you just assure the police officers? My brother is just a regimental commander in the military region; he's a different unit from the Public Security Bureau. How can he possibly have any say in their affairs?"

Everyone was astonished; they never expected that Qin Xiaofang would give birth to such a reasonable daughter.

Qin Xiaofang was so angry she could hardly breathe, but she could see there was no room for negotiation; she couldn't really watch her only son go to a labor camp.

She snapped at Lu Yan angrily, "Sorry, okay?!"

After saying that, Qin Xiaofang gave Liu Laidi a hard shove and went home.
