Chapter 1137: Chapter 1037: Painful as it is, it feels good inside!

"Okay, that’s settled," Qin Fen agreed readily.

"That bracelet cannot be sold! If you want to return it, return it whole," Li Junping spoke up.

An Hao’s cool gaze landed on Li Junping’s face, lingered for two seconds, and she spoke slowly, "So the Qin Family doesn’t need me anymore, and you want to burn bridges. I can give you the bracelet, but I want all my money back. Then, you can ask me for the bracelet!"

"No, no, no!" Qin Ru Hai hastily said, "That bracelet is already yours! There’s absolutely no reason to ask for something back once given away. An Hao, I’ve seen clearly how much you’ve contributed to the family over these two years. I understand your hardships, those mother and daughter don’t get it, don’t take it to heart."

"Uncle!" An Hao suddenly changed how she addressed him, "I didn’t want things to get to where they are today! But I cannot tolerate Qin Fen’s behavior! To be honest, to speak strictly, I’m not the daughter-in-law of the Qin Family! So, it’s better to use this form of address when we meet in the future!"

Qin Ru Hai was shocked for a long while before he came back to his senses, "Are you planning not to deal with the Qin Family any more? It really breaks my heart..."

"Uncle, you’ve always been kind. I’m grateful for that in my heart. But from now on..."

"Sis! I support you! Staying away from his family means one less troublesome matter," An Ping firmly stood by An Hao’s side.

"That’s good! This family is just dragging you down," Qin Ru Hai sighed deeply and sat down on the floor, starting to smoke incessantly.

With things said to this point, there was nothing more to say.

An Hao turned around and walked straight out.

When she reached the courtyard, she saw the vegetables on the ground.

They were picked by Li Junping from the vegetable garden today.

An Hao gave a cold laugh, picked up the basket, and poured all the vegetables out onto the ground.

She then stomped on them until they were utterly crushed.

It wasn’t just about the money, it was about the principle!

The fight was over, the arguments had been had, and An Hao’s anger had mostly subsided.

It was time for the three of them to head back home.

On the way, An Hao asked An Ping, "Does it hurt?"

An Ping touched his face, looked up and laughed heartily, "It hurts! It sure hurts, but it feels so satisfying!"

"I’m sorry you had to go through that today! When we get back, I’ll put a cold compress on you, and your face won’t be swollen when you wake up tomorrow," An Hao said with concern.

"He’s tough and can take a beating! It’s fine as long as you’re okay," after all, a woman with a child shouldn’t be neglected.

"I’m fine!" During the fight, she stayed well out of the fray; if she let such a trivial matter affect the baby in her tummy, it would be a loss not worth the gain.

"Dad! I’ve got to say something to you!" An Ping had been holding it in all day and couldn’t hold back any longer, "From now on, for all those trifling matters, you should stop agreeing to them. So what if they jab at our spines? We live with integrity and have done no wrong to anyone."

"An Ping is right! From now on, we shouldn’t agree to requests that we shouldn’t. You think by agreeing you’re sparing others discomfort, but in the end, by agreeing to these unreasonable demands, the person who suffers is you."

Over these past few years, An Hao had come to realize that being overly tolerant and accommodating doesn’t necessarily lead to good outcomes.

If you don’t seek out trouble, trouble will come seeking you.

One must fight for their own happiness and rights.

"This is my fault!" An Shuchao sighed deeply, "It’s my incompetence! I failed to protect my own children and in the end, still caused trouble for the family."
