She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 370: Chapter 380: Could it be Cuifen?

“This pathetic loser, if he dares to tell the truth, he’s asking for death. The man who came with Su Yun clearly looks like bad news. Who knows what they would do to him if they found out!”

“Shut your mouth!” Qin Youde’s attempt to glare was instantly overshadowed as Second Aunt Qin’s eyes bulged even larger, swiftly suppressing his aura.

“You… do as you please.” He had only once in his life been head of his household, had only once made the decisions. Even when he disagreed with something in his heart, he still retreated out of habit in the end.

The spectacle made by this husband and wife only intensified the malevolence in Su Hai’s eyes.

On the other hand, Su Yun was already crying from the accusations, gasping for breath between her tears.

“I know it was my fault at the time. I’ve come back this time to take my daughter back home.”

Second Aunt Qin’s mind raced. She had long abandoned her daughter, although she was aware someone had picked her up. But if she confessed now, she’d definitely not end well. It would also mean benefiting that wretched girl, who had found a good husband and, if she were to get a mother with money and influence as well, wouldn’t their Cuifen be suppressed for life?

Since they were young, that despicable girl was always outshone by Cuifen in every way. Not even coming close, and as a mother, she naturally had to look out for her own daughter.

Plus, if her daughter did well, she’d bask in the glory too.

Having thought this through, Second Aunt Qin sat down on the chair, sneering, “Hmph! You abandoned her so easily back then, and now you want to take your daughter back? No chance.”

“What do I have to do to take her back, then?”

Second Aunt Qin greedily looked them over, audibly swallowing, “Give me money, lots and lots of money.” With Cuifen having a strong backer, she herself could make a fortune.

“Fine, I’ll give you whatever amount you ask for. Where is my daughter?”

“How much can you give me?” Second Aunt Qin stretched out her chubby fingers, “I want this much. Do you have it?”

“Five thousand yuan? Fine, no problem. Consider it compensation for your years of raising my daughter.” Su Yun agreed without hesitation.

She was never short of money. Five thousand yuan might seem an astronomical sum to an average family, but to her, it was hardly worth mentioning.

Moreover, back when she was sent down to the countryside, she had been bullied and looked down upon by many villagers. Now with a chance to slap them in the face, she was more than happy to spend a little extra to feel triumphant.

Second Aunt Qin, on the other hand, started to regret not asking for more, “Looking at how you’re dressed, you must be quite wealthy, aren’t you?”

Xu Laodi excitedly said, “Wealthy, they drive a sedan, they must be loaded.”

Su Hai swept them with a piercing gaze, impatiently saying, “After Qin Youmin died, was the child under your care?”

Deep down he didn’t believe for a second that this greedy woman would willingly take care of an orphan girl with nothing to her name.

Second Aunt Qin felt internally shaky, but for the sake of the money, she brazenly claimed, “Of course, it was me.” The thought that all their money would belong to her daughter in the future made Second Aunt Qin flush with excitement.

Cuifen was just a few months younger than that wretched girl. When Su Yun left, Cuifen hadn’t even been born yet.

A perfect replacement.

The office director, familiar with the Qin Family situation, exclaimed in surprise, “Could it be Cuifen?” He had been assigned to Liyang County, where he had worked for over ten years, only aware that Qin Youde had one daughter.

It was Qin Cuifen, rumored to have performed very well in the General Union. Even before joining the union, she had been the subject of much praise back in the village.
