Chapter 33: Don’t Want to Go Back

Chapter 33: Chapter 33: Don’t Want to Go Back"Village Chief Grandpa, we didn’t steal. The jade was left for Nuannuan by our mother." Hu Li’s face suddenly turned ugly. If these words got out, how would the villagers gossip about her, saying she coveted the belongings of her predecessor? Would she still have any shame? Would she ever be able to go out again? She fiercely twisted Qin Guohua’s arm. "Qin Guohua, I’m done dealing with these two children. Now, you decide: do you want me or them? With them around, our family will never have a moment of peace." At this point, Qin Guohua was actually feeling some regret. No matter what, they were still his children. Moreover, Qin Xiangyang was an important labor force in the family. If he were truly gone, who would handle the fields? He was already troubled, and being provoked by Hu Li only agitated him more, so he sat on the ground and remained silent. Qin Xiangnuan, in Qin Xiangyang’s arms, lifted her small face. She intentionally pulled up her sleeve, revealing an arm full of scars. She broke free from Qin Xiangyang’s arm and then stood up and knelt down to the Village Chief. "Village Chief Grandpa, Nuannuan and my brother want to survive, please, Village Chief Grandpa, save us." Qin Xiangyang also wiped his face, knelt down with his sister, "Yes, Village Chief Grandpa, please save us, Dad will kill Nuannuan." "You two little rabbits, get back home immediately," Qin Guohua stood up and was about to grab the two children but the Village Chief stood in his way. "Guohua, what are you doing?" The Village Chief’s voice carried an unmistakable tone of reprimand. As an adult, how could he be worse than the children? These were his own kids, not someone else’s. Just because their mother was gone, did that allow him to mistreat the children she bore? Sёarch* The nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Are you two coming back with me or not?" Qin Guohua snarled, warning the two little rabbits on the ground. You’ve grown up, got wings now, huh? Daring to disobey me. Qin Xiangyang quickly shielded Qin Xiangnuan behind him, bowed his head, and then, lifting it, he shook his head. He knew that if they went back, his sister’s jade would definitely be seized, and they would undoubtedly suffer more beatings. His sister was all bruised, yet he suddenly felt that perhaps this time if they went back, he could no longer protect her. He didn’t know what would happen to his sister if he was gone. Without his protection, could his little sister even grow up? He had promised his mother, promised her that he would take good care of his sister. He squeezed his sister’s little hand, then used his fingers to tidy her little braids. Then he turned back and shook his head at Qin Guohua again, "I’m sorry, Dad, I don’t want to go back." "Okay, very good," Qin Guohua suddenly stretched out his hand and harshly slapped Qin Xiangyang’s face before the Village Chief could intervene. "You don’t want to go back, very good," Qin Guohua didn’t feel there was anything wrong with hitting his own son; after all, he was his own flesh and blood. "Very good," Qin Guohua repeated again, "I don’t want such a son either. You want to sever our relationship, fine, very good, let’s cut it clean. From now on, you are no longer children of the Qin Family, nor are you children of Qin Guohua. Whether you live or die is absolutely none of my concern from now on."
